Things are pretty busy around here. I now work as a full-time dressmaker & a part-time dog walker. I'm also working on a YouTube Sims 2 sitcom based on my story, Into Me. I attempted making the sitcom before with friends, but our schedules conflicted. It's hard to get a group of 6 people together to read lines, especially when they're not enthusiastic about it.

Living in Chicago is getting harder every day. Not only is it expensive & jobs are difficult to find, I don't have many close friends here. My boyfriend is also hardly home & when he is, we don't do much except watch movies. He works a lot & deserves the rest, but find that I spend a lot of time alone. I go to the lake, on drives, site-seeing, & out drinking by myself a lot. Then, I go home to sew or play on my computer. Sometimes, I go a little crazy from spending so much time by myself. A lot of the people I care about are gone or busy with their own life. Why does it feel like the only time anyone has fun anymore is when intoxicated?

I miss art circles, late night drives, long discussions about life, making movies, taking photos, being silly, & dancing until dawn. I know nothing ever remains the same. I should just start hosting parties at my place. That's all anybody wants to do anymore, anyway.

I miss my friends. I miss our times together. I guess this video helps describe how I feel.
