I hate how this week turned out.
On Sunday I went to have a pool day with my family. I only see my family around once a month since I moved to Orlando, so I try to make the most of the time when they're here. However, I made a fatal flaw. I skipped putting on sunscreen. From Sunday night to the point at which I am currently writing I have had irritating stinging pain across my face, chest, shoulders, and back. This has made getting sleep and wearing a shirt impossible which in turn has made getting any work done impossible. I can't blame anyone but myself for this but that does not make me any less frustrated with the situation.
I've tried everything. Aloe, hot and cold temperatures in my apartment, hot and cold showers, hot baths, some offer temporary relief while others only made things worse. The most frustrating was that I didn't have any aloe cream so I had to order it with Instacart but the guy didn't buy it so I had to ask a friend to go buy some for me instead because he was the only person I felt I could trust to do it right and do it quickly. Even after that it didn't seem to help at all.
I am feeling terribly stressed and anxious about this whole situation since I've never had this much time away from a class at Full Sail before so I'm afraid of the consequences of losing this much dev time. I'm afraid my group will be angry with me and ultimately, I'm stressed that this will somehow affect my ability to get a job post-graduation. I've had nothing but time to be in pain and stress about the future. I am spiraling deeper and deeper into self-doubt and anxiety and the only answer is I need to kick myself in the ass and work harder!
The only good thing about this week was I got to play a bit of the new Zelda game and I'm enjoying it very much! I feel that's the only image I could put here since the other option for a visual aid would be the peeling skin on my back. Sorry for no pictures in the previous posts I overlooked that those were required here.
