Thank you to my girlfriend who helped me produce my solo debut, thank you to Alter Media for hiring and signing me and supporting me in all my ventures and thank you my Jen members who gave me encouragement regarding my project!
Another huge thank you to my strawbesties (as well as Tenachi & Lambestie) for giving me a platform to showcase my skills. I love having fun, let’s have more fun in the future. The story I’ve showcased begun two years again when I was 22. In 3 weeks, I’ll be 24. It was a more introspective look at my personality, my mental health and what it would mean for the future of my existence. It’s a story I explored with JEN, continued with this project and will further expand on with more JEN releases.
Turning 20 was a hard pill for me to swallow being that I swore I wouldn’t make it to my 20’s. After trying my best to survive and dealing with one of the hardest years of my life subsequently after, turning 22 left me emotionally reeling in private and I began to ask myself: Shouldn’t I be maturing by now?
So I attempted to “adult” as some would say, which was foiled pretty quickly. It hadn’t been my first attempt to do so and I’m sure if I didn’t enter my relationship back in 2020, I would still be fighting to do so.
The most important lesson my girlfriend taught me was that I’m still growing and I’m not exactly the “grown adult” that I had claimed myself to always be. This was due to the figures in my life pressuring me as well as traumatic events that had happened that forced me into this mindset that maturity and adulting looked one way-and that even went further to convince me that I was on the same level as someone in their 30’s. It all relates back to this unrealistic standard and expectation our society has also put on young adults, expecting us to have our lives fully together by the age of 20 despite the fact that the world is steadily falling apart amongst us at a faster pace than we could maintain.
When I unpacked this trauma, I realized that I needed to stop trying to pigeonhole myself into something I wasn’t. To make a long story short: I’m mentally ill, I’m hyper-feminine, I’m a bit childish and I do enjoy hobbies that many would think I should be tired of at my age. I’m very naive at times and my bipolar disorder does put me in a situation in which my emotionally maturity will never exact match my age at moments. I’m a work in progress but I’m still young. I’m not too old to be interested in anything nor am I too old to fall for stupid things and make huge mistakes. I’m also very deserving of what I receive.
The tale of Strawbunny is really overdramatized letter to myself regarding my behavior over the years and how I can look back at how silly I was in most situations but also have some compassion towards myself simultaneously. It also helps that I’ve managed to debunk a lot of the stigma thrown my way over the years in my own head.
If you’re interested in hearing more of my insane ramblings about myself, stay tuned for the physical release tomorrow lol.
