Mood/activities/thoughts: (evening) Did a little workout, hula hooping, and looked into renting studios and apartments all day. I was very much thinking a studio is what was best, but now I think having a roommate may be good, as long as I get my silence in my room to do my hobbies and tarot haha. I just want that independent space. The huge plus is being near my job, and also being able to have 3 hours more time daily to myself, whether I put that into sleep, hobbies, cooking, or exercising. All of this would be beneficial to my health and personal growth. I won’t get that much being so tired after working to even workout when I come home 1.45 hrs later. So if this happens, the concern is who to get as an apartment mate. Just checked after dinner and I weight 105 lbs. Hoping to turn more fat into muscle when I get my bike tomorrow too (annoying delay- was supposed to be here today!)
Tarot Card: Eight of Wands, upright

Notes on card: movement, fast, travel, freedom, hard work paying off, energetic, positive, resolution, moving forward with excitement, work related taking off at high speeds, rapid recovery, surprises
Reflection: Initially, I had gotten another card from the deck that I don’t quite remember, I think Knight of wands reversed, and then as I started shuffling, without even asking, the Ten of cups reversed jumped out at me. I decided I wouldn’t take it unless the next card was a cups too. Since it wasn’t, I kept the next one instead of the ten of cups reversed. Looking at it now, both resonate. Ten of cups reversed is probably very much related to broken happiness- disharmony, conflict, separation, lack of stability, not feeling fulfilled. However, the 8 of wands relates well to my thoughts and wants today. They were surely moving at fast pace, dreaming of getting an apartment closer to work to make sure I could make time for me and my hobbies, cooking and exercising. I probably spent about 5-6 hours looking into that stuff. I found some promising ones, and maybe could even check them out this weekend in person. I will see. I could see myself happy with that movement towards real adulthood.
