Think Femme @thinkfemme - Tumblr Blog

Welp, it’s been 5 years since last post and I redownloaded this app to look at hot gifs from heated rivalry cause I’m a slut just like everyone else.

I changed the banner on here and updated the picture cause that photo is from when I was 25 and man that was almost a decade ago.

I just logged back into this after years away and to see that my last post is about having accepted an offer from grad school is wild! I now have my masters and am a licensed therapist. What a damn trip.

Today I accepted an offer from Loyola University for their masters in social work program and I could not be more thrilled and in awe of how far I have come.

Hey there, I’m 90% of the way through applying to graduate school for a master’s in social work, my job is cool as shit, my girlfriend and I moved in together, I’m coming up on 2 years of getting away from an abusive relationship and I am living my best, happiest, prettiest, life.

Also I guess self update? This is the cutie that I am now!

Life update I guess?

So it’s been like, 9 months maybe? (I have no concept of time) since my last post and I just wanted to pop in and say hi. Since my last post I got a new job, I officially work for the Chicago Housing Authority now and love love my job, I moved to Hyde Park and honestly I am so in love with this neighborhood. I feel like it’s been really wonderful for my mental health. And speaking of that! In a few months I am coming up on 2 years of the best mental health of my life. My girlfriend and I have been together for a little over a year and half and I love her so very much. We are working on applications to graduate social work programs right now and I’m already ready to get done with them.

Ummmm what else, I’m part of a book club where we don’t read dead white men and for the first time since graduating college I am loving reading again. I can’t get enough, it’s becoming a problem.

Life isn’t perfect and there are so many things I still want to work on but since moving in to my own apartment and starting my new job I feel like I am able to breathe in a way I haven’t in 13 years.

So maybe I’ll do this again sometime, or maybe I’ll make a post about all of the books (so many) I’ve read this summer

One last selfie

So, I guess this is it. I’m going now. I’ve had this tumblr for 7 years and I think that it’s time to end it. I can’t fully express how grateful I am for tumblr, for the friends I’ve met, for the innumerable ways it has changed my life. I started this tumblr because I was depressed and alone and fighting battles I could not weather by myself. I reached out and so many people answered, literally thousands answered. I came to you for advice, guidance, validation and joy. It has been over a year since I left an extremely abusive and manipulative relationship and now in a few month I will celebrate my 1 year anniversary with someone I am so in love with, someone who I day dream about and feel all the cheesy feelings about and a 1 year anniversary with good, stable mental health. I attribute so much of that to you all and this space. So thank you. I’m going to keep this up so I can visit it and also check on how you all are doing.

Thank you thank you thank you.
