oh okay heres one:

"sleepaway camp"= you go there for at least a few days, a week, sometimes several weeks, and sleep there, as opposed to a """camp""" where you go for the day and your parents or whoever picks you up afterward (those arent really camps, but like. idk when i went to "space camp" it was a weeklong but not sleepaway). in the U.S. at least, the typical image of a sleepaway camp involves staying in cabins, dunno how common it is/what it looks like in other countries.

for the first few i just mean like. not necessarily a stealth church camp, just like. idk, a camp where theres also an Assumption Of Christianity and just general vibes without being actually church camp. So, there might not be daily services and jesusy dedicatwd activities, but maybe theres still a prayer said over meals and shit. Which i assume might exist...

(oh and @reblogforsamplesize if u wanna)

i suppose i owe a small update:

  • work fucking sucks
  • anxious about Rent bc its gonna go up to $1400, knowing i should probably get a roommate but not even knowing where to fucking start (lol anyone in the austin area...)
  • i am also in Analysis Paralysis bc i wanna make a backpack for myself bc i cant find the Perfect Backpack but god choosing the colors and materials is so hard like. theres so many colors. too many of them. i cant choose. goddamn. it is silly how much more of my time this has occupied recently than Fucking Rent but to be fair "green or yellow inner lining" is a bit easier to juggle around my head than MONEY RENT ROOMMATES AAAAAAAAAAAAA
  • also i want to come out to my mom so thats been more anxiety spikes
  • seriously choosing backpack colors is too hard. soneone should jnvent a brain that chooses fabric colors for you.

anyway thats ur upd8. but in fairness i did say the hell was endless so yall are currently on the part of hell where im just leaving you in antici

whatever color you choose for the backpack, make sure the lining is a light color or white. everyone lines bags with black, and it's impossible to find anything in the black hole that results.

all the best for everything else. <3

oh no i was looking at Fucking Neon colors for the lining.

and okay ill probs delete later bc i feel like abandoning blog for a month then saying "hey help me choose fabric swatches" is weird at the very least but here is my Concept, except change the zippers from yellow to green bc i got green zippers and. yeah.

now, in order: the yellow is similar to what ill be going for when dyeing the webbing and shit (but maybe a lil less saturated and more "honey"?), the green is the zippers, the brown is the planned outside, and the neon bitches on the bottom are SOME OF the lining options.

i also have the option of getting some white fabric and dyeing it (its coated nylon packcloth, so not the EASIEST to dye but eh could also be worse) and if i went that route the insides would be less neon, similar to the test strip below, and also i would be tempted to make it 20 diff colors with mint and dandelion and lilac and creamsicle and aaaaaaa. so, choosing a solid color is obviously Easier.

anyway. this is what ive been doing instead of either Preparing or trying to find a fucking roommate or coming out to my mom. staring at fabric swatches and having an identity crisis.

ive also never sewn anything this complicated before and zippers can go fuck themselves so im also scares that i will Do This Badly.

gradually, the malaise lifts, and I begin preparations. Slowly and quickly, in bursts and in droves, with help and on my own. i suppose with this I can give you all one more chance to change this. one more chance to prevent it.

you dont know what is to come, but still you must choose.
