I worked late today. This morning, before moving from my room to AEON as usual, I went to the main house of my group home. There, I saw a person from the city office again. That person, the admin, and I had a meeting as so-called "monitoring", a sort of survey about how I have been living in this group home as an autistic person. I shared several facts with them. For example, I talked to them about how I had felt after having my wisdom teeth pulled last summer. Also, how the admins and I have tried to manage/control my money, etc.
After that, I went to AEON. There, I tried to enjoy a reading time as usual. A Discord friend of mine had sent me an interesting short novel of them, and even though it is written in easy English enough for me to enjoy, I couldn't concentrate on it. So I gave up finally. TBH, at that time my head had even been soaked into a strong wish for death... However, I had known that this obsessive idea must have come from the traumatic events I had once experienced. Therefore, nothing was my fault about this situation.
I usually use the app Spotify to enjoy several music through my smartphone. So, I tried to change my mood by music's power, and found a marvelous playlist of Funk and Soul music bangers such as Kool and The Gang and Sly and The Family Stone etc. With that playlist, I started rewriting (or trying to improve actually) my short novel "Visitors" English draft. Even though I had felt a bad mood certainly, that task of rewriting (and also, several soulful music, especially Stevie Wonder's ones) made my mind uplifted. I was really grateful for this work.
At 5 p.m. I had a break time as usual. From tomorrow, I will attend the new season of the English conversation class in this city. I can't want for tomorrow... Since I had decided to learn English seriously by the guidance/recommendation of my ex-job coach, probably 10 years have passed. Oh, a decade. I couldn't have expected I would be able to keep learning English for such a long time. Now, on Discord, MeWe, WhatsApp and the real life, there seems to be so many "mates" who help my learning English. About this, I shouldn't forget how this fact is like a brilliant miracle.
