Will try this out. Thank you!

Despite being on sabbatical i feel like my mind always has a list of things i ‘should’ be doing. So lately been trying to get to a point where that list isn’t always on top of mind!

Yup. But currently training has been stagnating. I stopped training with my old coach because i moved cities so still getting used to training without a coach rn..

I’m joining Kellogg Business School in Aug so until then I’m on a break. I’m focusing on my writing, swimming and whatever new thing catches my fancy.

In general allowing myself to get bored because being so focussed on achieving goals over the last couple of years left me feeling burnt out!

Swimming and writing. I really got into open water swimming and finished 2nd in my first Swimathon. I’m currently training to swim the English Channel solo in 2025.

I joined twitter cause its apparently where writers hang?! Did Write of Passage and started a newsletter where I document my 20s.

However after four years I realised I had expensive hobbies and so i got myself a corporate job. And it was like entering a revolving door. I blinked and I was a good deal older and back to feeling like a zombie getting through life.

So once again I decided to my 2 long sustaining interests -

Although it helped me get an admit to a really great engineering college, it sucked by soul dry.

So sitting engineering, i decided to focus on my interests. I joined the college swimming team and swam competitively for 4 years and joined the writing club and met a bunch of like minded people!

Heyyy everyone! I’m Trisha. Born and raised in India.

I have always been very self introspect-ey. Been maintaining journals since I was 10 years old. And have always been into writing and creative stuff!

Was put into an education factory for my 11th and 12th grade.

Any of you on here who are based out of London? I’m going to be there for 2 months starting April 24th and would love some local recommendations for things to do!

There are no DMs on bluesky??!

Idk if it’s just who i chose to follow but Bluesky feels like vibecamp+tpot. If there are other parts of twitter on here, would love to be introduced to them!

I’m currently based out of India. Moving to Chicago in August so probably will try to come in December!

But at the same time i don’t just want to do something to feel productive. I just feel very stuck in this funk.

I’m about two months into my sabbatical and seem to have hit a funk. So much of my identity was tied to being productive, and being good at my job. And now that I’m not doing anything measurable, I’m unable to feel good about myself on a daily basis.

@priyarose.bsky.social makes me want to move to NY every time i see her posts!

I would really appreciate some invites! Thank you!

I recently wrote about moving out of a place that felt like a pitstop and in multiple iterations of editing, it ballooned to cover the hedonic treadmill and Alan Watts.

Was feeling a reluctance for posting on twitter recently. Happy to be on here with close to zero followers to be unapologetically unhinged again!

What are the individual posts on here called? Blues?
