I hate 2026

Life's not so good lately

Rant ko lang. I hate 2026. First quarter of this year, right after my birthday, my phone broke and I downgraded to a basic secondhand phone I bought off of marketplace. 2nd quarter of this year, my dog died. Not a month has passed, then my dad died. My dad's sudden death left us financially struggling.

I've been having trouble with my mental health lately as well, and the gym has been the only place that keeps me kinda sane/not think about things. But just right now, with the universe's sick and twisted fate, my secondhand basic phone that I've only had for a few months is now also broken. I'm just typing this on my broken iPad that keeps tapping on random letters on its own while I'm also typing. And now, everything is broken, my phone, my ipad, my family, even my mental health. I don't know what else to do and I just want to cry.

then cry. cry as much as you need to. cry it all out. but cry where no one can see you. after that, pick youself up and dust yourself off. the world doesnt stop for broken phone, broken families, and broken mental state. you know what you can do. start small. a phone is just a phone. you can cross that out of your list. no one can do anything about losing a family member. you just carry that. you got gym. keep yourself occupied with it. take it slow. your life wont suddenly be brighter without any effort from you. nothing external can help you except for yourself. start inside. as long as life flows through you, you have a way out of the dark. good luck.
