Another power outage. Cannot focus on writing right now. At the same time, my mind is too overwhelmed. There are 13 days left in 2023, and it feels like I am pushing myself too hard. It's been a trying year, and the inner critic would always bash me at every given opportunity. 2024 can't get here fast enough! It's like I'm cursed with bad luck! I feel so irritable right now! 😭😭😭😭
