Some time went by, since I last wrote and quite a lot happened.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
First of all I had a relapse. One of the ugly kind, but I somehow managed to get
|
||
|
|
out of it, thanks to the people around me. But from what these people tell me I
|
||
|
|
seem to get better at handling these situations, which is kind of nice. I took a
|
||
|
|
small vacation staying with some friends in the countryside for a week. There I
|
||
|
|
took a step forward in a project of mine. Some of you might know, that I want to
|
||
|
|
build my own tent for various purposes. One is, to finally have a tent (yay!),
|
||
|
|
the second is to have a tent to take with me on hacker camps and the third and
|
||
|
|
most difficult task is to have a tent fit for LARPing. I have a plan, so I could
|
||
|
|
buy some pure cotton canvas very cheaply directly from a weaving mill. Now I
|
||
|
|
have to come up with a way to build the struts, before I can get to sewing. But
|
||
|
|
don't get the impression I was in any way productive during the vacation. I was
|
||
|
|
mostly lazily lying around.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
After that vacation and spending some time at home again more or less
|
||
|
|
successfully managing to keep up my daily schedule I got a call from my
|
||
|
|
vocational rehab I applied for. They wanted to take me in prematurely, because
|
||
|
|
someone else somehow didn't show up. Because I had nothing better to do I agreed
|
||
|
|
to take the opening one month before my scheduled start. So now I'm in my third
|
||
|
|
week of attending this rehab. I was pretty overwhelmed in the beginning because
|
||
|
|
of all the testing they ran on me, like another IQ-Test and some testing of my
|
||
|
|
motor skills. Now I'm getting accustomed to the new schedule and to being pretty
|
||
|
|
exhausted at the end of the day from doing menial tasks aimed for testing my
|
||
|
|
capacities in certain fields. For now I have been doing tasks in administration
|
||
|
|
and economy, which is not really the most interesting field and definitely not
|
||
|
|
the field I want to work in the future, but the more interesting fields like
|
||
|
|
design or electronics and computer science will follow. I am looking forward to
|
||
|
|
these. But because of this I had to tone down on my other activities like coding
|
||
|
|
or writing. I am simply too exhausted when I come home. But I managed to get my
|
||
|
|
piano up and running again, which I haven't touched for at least a year, so I
|
||
|
|
can relax with playing a little music.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Progress feels good.
