This month started with me setting up a deadline for Conext student workshop. 
I wanted to submit something not only to get the chance to attend a nice conference, but to create a network, meet researchers, and to get a chance to present my work and get feedback on it. 
I also worked on my code-base, finally making everything work by replacing Jool with clatd for performing CxLAT. 
This darn thing wasted so much of my time! 
I did learn a bit along the way, but oh well. 
Such is life!

Overall not the most productive month, but one reason for it is that I have't really had a real vacation in a long time. 
I will be taking a 10 day vacation next month just to reset, and gain back my power. 
I cross my fingers for the month ahead!

My social life has been becoming better too. 
I've been trying to attend more ZiS events to meet people, make new connections, and to have fun! 
My depression is a serious issue. 
I also have anxiety disorder that I'm talking with my therapist about. 
I will most likely start taking SSRIs once again. 
Idiot me was cutting it when the catasrophe in February happened and did not think twice to keep taking them. 
I'm really glad I was able to recover, though it was not easy at all, it did work out.

I do think there is bright nice future ahead of me; I just need to keep on trucking and not worry too much. 
Things will workout!
