The Real Girl Diaries: Episode 2

I’m good at surviving, thriving (in my own chaotic way), and romanticizing Monday mornings like they’re a scene in a Netflix original.

“Things I’m Good At (Besides Mentally Living in a Blanket Burrito)”

People be out here saying they’re good at Excel formulas, running marathons, or investing in crypto.

Me? I’m good at:

🧘‍♀️ Being Patient

I’m not just patient — I’m Olympic level chill.

I wait for packages that are already two weeks late.

I listen to people who take 20 minutes to tell a story that could’ve been an emoji.

And I haven’t fought a printer since 2022. Growth.

💔 Healing Myself

Self-healing looks different every day.

Sometimes it’s journaling.

Sometimes it’s aggressively cleaning your room at 11:47 p.m. while sobbing to 2000s throwback ballads.

I call it therapy with a playlist.

💅 Loving Myself

Yes, I flirt with myself in the mirror. Yes, I gas myself up while brushing my teeth.

Is it delusional? Maybe. Is it working? Absolutely.

I am the love of my own life — and also the roommate who eats all the snacks.

🚧 Putting Myself First

I’ve mastered the art of saying “no” without an excuse.

“No, I can’t come out.”

Why?

Because I’m in a committed relationship with my couch, that’s why.

Protecting my peace like it’s on sale.

🎤 So to answer your question:

What am I good at?

I’m good at surviving, thriving (in my own chaotic way), and romanticizing Monday mornings like they’re a scene in a Netflix original.

You don’t need a resume of hard skills when you’ve got emotional resilience, a sense of humor, and unmatched blanket burrito energy.
