Gloomy looking Tuesday morning, cold air rushing in throught the open window, but I’m still comfortably under a warm blanket, surrounded by four pillows. I slept like the dead, no dreams, no waking up in the middle of the sleep. I woke up a little before the alarm but am laying around in bed for a good while longer.
First thing I do when I wake up is to check Blockfolio and scroll through Steemit. The markets have taken another blunge during the night, quite depressing looking. It of course sucks because I live off of that money, but I’m not too worried yet. I think I have been toughening up as the year has progressed and the cryptos look more and more depressing every month.
I guess I must be a pretty firm believer in the future of cryptocurrencies as I haven’t cashed out everything in the fear of it all going down even more. There might come a time where I have no choice but to sell at a shitty price, or get a real job. But it would kill me if I had to go back to the kitchen, I would hate it and I would hate myself for not doing better in this new life of mine that revolves around cryptocurrencies.
I don’t want to give up my freedom, I have grown quite fond of it. I’d rather downgrade on some aspects of life, eat cheaper, not buy materia I don’t necessary need, than go and get a real job that would suck the life out of me.
I have a roof over my head and I can feed myself, but what I am missing now is that I can’t travel. I would really love to go to southern Europe this autumn, but it’s impossible if the markets don’t make a serious turn upwards soon.
I’m trying to make most of life right now and enjoy what I have. Take the down time and try and not worry too much about the markets. Today I got to woke up after a good nights sleep, what ever time I wanted to, now I can have a light breakfast, watch some tv, do my makeup and chill for a while. Later I’m meeting @Escapist for coffee and then I’m gonna come back home, eat and work on some pictures. Everything at my own pace, life is not too bad.
I also feel the same way as you, the decline in cryptocurrent market prices makes me confused, and this is really an annoying thing, every day I always pay attention to the progress of the crypto market, and hope I see good news .
Regardless of price right now the crypto space is making amazing progress, especially in the development side. Speculation got us to where we were this January but fundamentals will carry us forward in the future.
I keep following how is the crypto market developing for the future, maybe when the price is decreasing this is a good step to invest and enjoy the results in the future.
Hah! Our morning started the same way: waking before the alarm clock - checking blockflolio. In my case, facepalm followed when I saw steem price and thought about the SBD I traded for steem 2 weeks ago... could have made a way better use of them now. Times are harsh for cryptos, but I also believe the market will bounce back... still have a lot of faith in cryptos. Have a nice day!
Don't think it like that, you did the best decision you knew how to do at that time :)
True; Now I'll wait and see steem bounce back and to the moon ;)
We don't need the moon, but even just like 5 dollars would be awesome :D
Agreed... but let's think big!!! ;)
Don't keep looking in the past because you will miss what is right in front of you :P
No worries about that ;) Very cool nickname by the way!!
Love the natural morning look!
I'm confused, though. If you don't want to go back to the kitchen, why did you get a tattoo that says "I should be in the kitchen?"
The picture is a lie, it’s a selfie from a few days ago, and taken in the afternoon 😅
The tattoo has more meaning than it being my job in my previous life. It’s about family and gathering around the table to eat with your loved ones. I did a whole post about it and will link it here if I can find it...
I took the opportunity to buy more STEEM just now. The market could continue to fall but inevitably it will come back up again just like it always does, but next time it will be even higher :)!
Here is to hoping, but who knows, it could go to zero also, we'll see! :)
It is a possibility... just like the earth could be hit by a rogue asteroid that wipes out mankind (again). Likely? I think not.
Doesn't mean it hurts any less in the meantime though :-/
Are u a chef before and u quit the job in exchange for freedom ? Life is not too bad with freedom, haha i think u are quite daring to do that.
Yes I was :) and I don't want to loose this freedom any time soon :)
As long as the market not falling drastically, u will not become the slave of money. Hope it will better soon. XD
Your freedom is paid by the people who are working every day and hasn´t the freedom to do what they want.
So why should the community pay for your freedom and for their own slavery?
Ok - you try to work at steemit wiht photography, but do you think this is enough for real life?
To do some nice pics didn´t solve problems of people every day life.
Some of them enjoy your work, but the price of steem is a question of demand.
Maybe a summer depression, maybe more, who knows.
Try to find a good paid job and then you can support your dreams of freedom at steemit.
The system don´t want freedom of the people, the need slavery and I fear that cryptocurrencies will be abolished sometimes in the future.
Go to where the money is - and try to do your best...
Good luck.
Excuse me but what the fuck?
LOL dick.
Looking cool with the spec's 😍
Thanks! :D
Welcome ❤
Are you going to the next Steemfest, Eve?
Yes I am :) You?
I am considering it :)
I am optimist to have a better cryptomarket next month.
Everyones has been saying "next month" all throughout the year :D
Somehow you are absolutely right, but I heard it from a specialist.
Everyone and no-one is a specialist in the crypto space, trust nobody.
It seems nice😊
I think that instead of "trust nobody", it's better to listen to everybody and decide the best by ourselves. 😉
good morning have a nice day
Regardless of all, despite hard times. I strongly believe that there will be an incessant rise in the market very soon.
Nice, don’t worry crypto will rise back up. Enjoy your day and Hold.
scary times for crypto in general!
I like nerdy girls, but no innocent next-door types, more the "I ll facesit you to death while gaming"-type (that exists only in our weird minds, lol)... so, good job Eve.
