One of my self-care apps reminds me to do one bold thing every day.

A couple of hundred yards from the college (if that) there's this incredible charcoal grill place that I've been to a couple of times before. I go with a colleague, though, because I'm always both the only woman and the only white person there. They're perfectly friendly, it's just my social anxiety.

Today, I decided I was strong enough to do something nice for myself and went and fetched some kofte and some chicken wings with a fresh naan to take back to the college canteen. Beautiful quality, all cooked fresh in front of me (not a phobia, I just resent eating out at places where they reheat food) and £6 including salad and grilled tomatoes. It was lovely, and I have to admit it's really helped perk me up.
