I just graduated optometry school and I feel like I’ve lost a bit of my identity. I didn’t have much free time to focus on the things that make me happy and now I’m lacking inspiration. I can’t work until my license is approved so I’ve had days of doing nothing since May 7. It’s been great but it’s starting to get boring; I can only play so much Zelda and doom scroll so often.
So whatcha got? What do you like to do? What are some hobbies or passions everyone has? What are non-drinking related activities to do with a partner or friends?
Well, you mentioned Zelda so gaming’s accounted for. I also do some writing. I started out doing it in my head/fanfiction-y and eventually published a couple chapters with more to follow eventually. After simmering things around enough, I got some stories that are good/unique enough to begin writing novels about so I also work on those in my spare time. (Plus a few stories that’d work better in webcomic or GB Studio video game format, but I haven’t started practical work on either yet.)
Aside from that, I dabble in Linux/computers and such.
I do have a gaming laptop but I suspect the battery is spicy so it’s currently in exile. Otherwise I have been wanting to dabble a bit in computer stuff and an old laptop would’ve been the perfect toy to fuck around and find out on.
