Ahhh, it's easier said than done, but please try not to feel silly for having this emotional reaction!! It's honestly understandable that you would feel this way... sometimes I can be really competitive about the things I love too. It's not that that the other person has done or anything wrong, or you want to "show them up", but it's often rooted in like... wanting to be the best you can be!
And that desire can lead you to be really hard on yourself, which doesn't help you at all. But I hope that things improve for you too... maybe things are different in the conservatory world, but to me, you're still very long to go after your dreams. There's never a time limit on things like that too... but either way, I'm sorry and wishing the best for you! β‘β‘
@inkcaps Hi Sarah, thank you very much for being so understanding. It's a mindset I tried to unlearn, but sometimes it comes back full force!
And I guess you're right, I'm not too old and it's not too late. There are even older people than me in conservatory who started studying their instrument only recently and they're doing great (also professionally)! I tend to think catastrophically when I get sad ... But it will pass! I already feel better thanks to your kind words. β₯οΈ
Hi everyone! Today I updated the To the Shore page with the buttons of my new mutuals and also added a new diary entry. Next time I'm going to add new recipes, pinky promise! Also: sorry for any typos or weird grammar mistakes, english is not my first language. See you soon! Hugs, Marija. <3
Ty! I love how yours is separated in a theme. It also reminded me of the old fairy websites that used to be a thing.
Take care of yourself, I can't wait to hear about your adventures at your conservatory at some point! How amazing is it you have that opportunity!! β₯οΈβ₯οΈ
@inkcaps Hello Sarah, you're always so very sweet π Thank you very much, I'd love to talk about more my experience and maybe write more about music! I've also read your reply to my my message on your gb, when I have more free time I'd be very happy to exchange contacts with you and chat π I wish you a beautiful weekend, hugs! π
Hi Marija, I'm glad that you're doing well!! It's nice to hear that school is keeping you occupied, but I hope things slow down enough so you have time to breathe. Excited to see what comes next!! ;u;
Not the lily graphics being beautiful, and the cherry wine cake sounding delicious! How cool that you used your own preserves for the cake! Canning is something I really want to try, it seems like a ton of fun! ;u; And a way to hold onto the memories of a particular season β‘β‘
@inkcaps: Hi Sarah, thank you very much! You should totally try when you have the time, it's not going to be perfect the first times but eventually you'll find out what works for you (I still have to ask my aunties for help sometimes ...)! Homemade canned good just taste different and, like you said, they really do hold special memories. β₯ Hugs!!
Added two diary entries I wrote a few days ago and I revamped my kitchen (it's a wip, I'm not sure about this new layout). More recipes coming soon! :) Hugs, Marija.
@datura: Hi Sue, you're back! You're always so sweet! <3 @inkcaps: Thank you very much dear, please let me know when you do! <3 I'm always open to critiques and suggestions.
Hello Vashti, sorry for the late reply, thank you very much! I'm glad you enjoy my website π If you'd still like to leave a message, you can find my guestbook on my index page next to "To the Shore" button! Have a lovely day! π
