What Are You Happy About Today?

[Aniko]

I will be happy if the computer starts up today.

So far it's a nice day, sunny but not too hot, plants like that, nice breeze as well, not much noise, neighbors are quiet (pay day, they must all be shopping). If the computer could cooperate as well, it would be a really nice day.

Edit: finally managed to get that compute working after trying for 3 hours (yeah I know, I need a new one)

• I feel as if I haven’t written on here for ages! Even though I’m had a busy time and a few health issues, I still have things to keep me positive!
• Blossom has been so cuddly and sometimes she will only take food for me and not my Dad! Blossom has also been enjoying her new cooling mat, cooling bandana and cooling towel as it’s been quite warm here in the UK. I also got her some doggy sun spray for the summer! I bought a pair of dog clippers about 3 weeks ago and she lets me shave her fur! She doesn’t need much of a trim as the de shedding brush seems to take care of most of her loose fur.
• My brother has still been acting like a normal person and enjoying videos and photos I’ve been sending him of Blossom. He says he doesn’t know what to buy for her, so he regularly gives me some money to buy her something that she will like. I bought him a personalised mug and coaster with Blossom’s photos on it. He loved it!
• @xSuperMario64x sent me a video of an adorable Basset Hound.
• Bought a new set of earbuds for when I’m walking Blossom.
• Read an online article and apparently Sir Elton is releasing a new album very soon! According to Bernie Taupin (his long time friend and songwriting partner), even though Elton has stopped touring, he will continue to release new music! I’m so excited! He’s also on tomorrow night in a repeat of Top of the Pops!
• My Dad bought me a 3-piece figurine set of Fisher Price Little People Elton figures! They weren’t supposed to be released until July, then they were due to be delivered on Saturday but got a lovely surprise when they arrived yesterday! I absolutely love them! I really hope they release more.
• Looking forward to the weekend as it looks quiet, so looking forward to chillin’!

Spoiler: Elton - Little People figures

Spoiler: Blossom!

Happy Thursday, everyone! Are we currently feeling happy today? I see some of you getting up and walking away already. Come baaack, I'm feeling happy and you gotta hear whhyyy! To the little bird that flew on my lap last night, I'm happy for all the pecks you attacked my face with. To the beautiful flower in the morning, I'm happy I whispered and it made you blossom. To the sun whom I call out by name, I'm happy that you choose to shine for me. To the rabbit posing next to the racoon in the afternoon, I'm happy for the tweet you chirped at me. You have very nice ears! Can I has? Just a quick nuzzle or two... or nine or fifteen? Anyway, that's why I'm happy today, but in general, I just am happy! I'm happy to be the voice in your head. I'm happy to be the arms in your dreams. I'm happy to be the hand on your face. I'm happy you're squirming all over the place. I'm happy to be the butterflies you have. I'm happy to be the smile you wear. I'm happy to be the the boop to your nose. I'm happy to be the happy you chose. Here's to a happy Thursday, everyone! Now if you'll EXCUSE me, I have important things to do with these two slices of cheesecake and this splendid bottle of champagne! Let me go get my coat from th- eehhh, never mind. I'll come back for that later. Reasons. All the reasons. You don't wanna know. Wait, was that a moose walking by?? *runs away and grabs another bottle of champagne on the way out*

☾ I placed second in the late Mario Kart session last night. I think people are starting to catch on to the fact that I'm terrible at Moo Moo Meadows, lmao.
☾ The trailer for the newest episode of this show I'm watching released abd I'm excited for it! I don't think I can wait a whole week for it!!!
☾ My paycheck was more than I expected. I checked my paystub a few days ago and it said one amount, but the amount I ended up receiving ended up being over $100 more than it originally said. I'm not complaining, but it was definitely a nice surprise to receive that much more. It made my morning.
☾ I ended up receiving a compliment on my Barou keychain (from Blue Lock). I'm glad he was recognizable. Nothing about the keychain outright screams "Blue Lock" aside from his uniform which is really only noticeable up close, or the soccer ball, but that doesn't necessarily connect it to the anime either.

Spoiler: keychain

Yes, that's a Quinton Byfield jersey in the background.

My day is just starting so I may have more to post later. So far what made me happy:

I’m really happy and excited the shiny pokemon thread is open again; no luck with my eggs yet. I might switch between Pokemon Arceus and Pokemon Violet today. I hope I can get as many points as I can from it in the time we have left and my shiny luck appears soon

Really grateful for the support from my friends and others yesterday and today. I know people probably forgot what I said on the tbt discord, but those reactions really hurt. Is it wrong to be bad at a mini game that others find to be easy?

I woke up with Spanky sleeping on my bed with me; she snuggled with me a little too .

I found a meowth yesterday in Pokemon Violet. Now I have four cats for my cat challenge! I just need the right nature maybe.

My mom bought me a soup I like at a store that sells a lot of different soup .

I found out what happened to my order on play-asia. they have been trying to find their stock of welcome amiibo cards and alternatives but they don’t have it anymore. I’m happy I finally got a response but really annoyed about this. I was really looking forward to getting them :/.

That’s it for now

☾ My ACNH rep dressed up to represent the Poyo Puffs made it to the site banner!! ;v;

It’s sooo cute, I love it!

 

[Autumn247]

• I had a good therapy appointment today, we talked about how I've been since my psychiatrist increased my meds for the manic symptoms and I'm doing a lot better and things have calmed down a lot
• Slept good
• Mocha was so happy to get treats last night, he was purring like crazy Mustachio was happy too but Mocha was ecstatic lol He really loves treats
• The week is almost over, I get to spend time with my boyfriend on Sunday as he has the day off work

@Midoriya THE MAVS ARE GOING TO THE NBA FINALS!!! what a great game!!!

 

[Midoriya]

@Midoriya THE MAVS ARE GOING TO THE NBA FINALS!!! what a great game!!!

THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT! The team camaraderie is AMAZING with this group. I'm SO excited we get another crack at winning a championship. The last time the Mavs won the NBA Finals I was only 14 years old, so it's been awhile. I remember being at one of the Mavs playoff games against the Thunder and someone holding a sign saying "THUNDER IS JUST NOISE!" and it worked, cause the Mavs ended up winning that series.

This Boston team is tough, but we're going to give them a heck of a fight. Let's go MAVS!

 

[.: Meri :.]

☾ I finished my last TBTWC cheers and baked a Kirby cake!! It’s good but v sweet so I genuinely wish I could share it with TBTers LOL

☾ Had fun spectating streams today and got to be a last-minute participant in a round of ACNH Hide and Seek!! Also had an absolute blast playing Among Us this evening (though I am. still lil bit shakey lmao) and am over halfway through completing the Polus Cosmicube!! so now I have a cute lava worm thing that I can also have as a pet

☾ I’m excited for Rune Factory: Project Dragon!! even if we don’t have a ton of new news on it ahaha, but I like the protagonist designs and the more mature look they have! ;v;

☾ I worked on some personal art for a little while!!

 

[boring]

I’m simply thrilled yesterday is yesterday and today and is today. Today things get to be a bit normal!

 

[hakutaku]

- Got paid todayyyy
- Actually had a pretty fun day at work yesterday, everyone was in a good mood
- It's a bright sunny day today and I'm meeting up with my friend for lunch
- Feeling good since I'm applying for more new jobs, much less stagnant

 

[Autumn247]

• I colored in my original character and I'm happy with how it turned out and am excited to see how my art of her progresses over the next couple years as I get more experience drawing
• Slept really well
• Spent some time this morning reading and it was nice
• I organized my apartment and it looks better now
• My boyfriend has the day off today so we should be able to spend some time together today
• I'm having a nice relaxing day today and just kinda doing whatever I want. I'm gonna spend some time drawing later Not sure what yet. Maybe some Pokemon or anime characters. I might try drawing the love hashira from Demon Slayer. I have drawn her before but not in color. This time I am gonna color it because she's got really colorful hair and eyes and I think it'd be fun to do and good practice using colored pencils
• I might also do some basic stuff with like anatomy practice for drawing anime characters, so like figure drawing, proportions etc I need to get better at that. And maybe learn some colored pencil techniques.
• Idk if anyone else here colors like in coloring books, but I love coloring, I have an adult coloring book for mindfulness and it's so good at relieving stress, it's very calming. I colored in it for like an hour last night and it really helped calm me down and helped my mood too
• I feel like I'm starting to understand how to play chess, I've been learning all the pieces and different strategies and how each piece moves and I am excited to play a game against my boyfriend on Sunday
• I also feel like I'm starting to get the hang of understanding how to play the yugioh TCG better. Reading the card effects thoroughly and understanding how they work and learning to make use of all the effects, especially banishing and graveyard effects. That's something I struggled with for awhile.
• I love TCG games and tabletop games, strategy games, etc. They're so much fun and I feel like they make me really use my brain and I feel so accomplished when I do good at them. I know that may sound silly
• I'm enjoying some coffee right now and am gonna probably draw soon!

 

[bestfriendsally]

mum's gonna pick my new switch joycons up from argos tomorrow :3 & either then or sometime during the 7 days :>

My day is just starting but so far I’m happy about:

I found the welcome amiibos on amazon and was able to order a few packs; I’m not happy with how much more expensive they are but I still ordered them anyways since I’d like to finish my amiibo collection. I’m really hoping for Hornsby, Spike, Julia and Sylvana in particular. Hopefully I can trade for the rest I need and the npc cards from series 5 ; also hoping I have no issues with this order. I replied to the email from Play-Asia and asked for a refund for the amiibo cards; still annoyed they listed them in stock and then found out weeks after I ordered them they don’t have them anymore. I’m hoping they ship my nendoroid and controller soon ; I’m worried that is going to fall through too.

I’m so happy I found some shinies yesterday. I’m hoping I can find even more today once I get my next set of cheers done! Would love some more target shinies especially. I’m out of ideas on my visual .

I had a nice chat with some friends last night . A friend is also helping me get some pokemon that aren’t in Violet that I want & shiny versions of them too (i just hope she is getting some sleep and not rushing & pushing herself; it didn’t matter when I got them ). Excited about another friend picking up a copy of Violet too! (I worry that I pressured her to get it; I’m probably fine but still can’t help worrying a little, darn anxiety ).

I woke up late but my mood is really good (it helps that I took my medicine earlier).

Got a splatoon session soon! I’m excited about that! Everyone is always so kind even though I’m not really good. So glad I don’t have to worry about my comments getting a here and I can be more myself.

That’s it for now!

One of my succulents is producing flowers and they have such a pretty gradient :")

 

[.: Meri :.]

☾ I finished volume 4 of Kimi ni Todoke and started re-reading volume 5!

☾ I spectated a couple of ACNH Hide and Seek streams, which I’ve really enjoyed watching aaaaa

☾ Continued working on some personal art today, and I’m really happy with how it’s coming along!

☾ LuxuryDark posted a new video!!! My mom and I love their videos, we always get really excited whenever they post ahaha ;v; Also watched some other shorter videos and SmallishBeans’ new Hermitcraft episode with my parents this afternoon!

 

[Neb]

- Picked up a few games on sale and saved $29 on them!
- Got some food at a grocery store deli.
- Got further in a really good book.

* In NewLeaf, Apollo sent me a letter telling me he appreciated all that I do for him. :,3

* Had Wendy's for lunch.

* Tomorrow, I will be going to my paternal grandparent's house for a multi-in-1 celebration: My birthday (which is on June 9th), my dad's birthday (June 11th), my brother graduating from college (though he will be going for two more years to receive his Master's), Mother's Day, and I think also Father's Day. This way, we can celebrate everything in one visit, which saves time and gives my dad more time to himself. I was even told today that my grandma is doing french fries. ^_^
It will be nice to swim and get some sun. :,3

Also, my dad will be talking about some stuff with my Nana (as I call my paternal grandma) such as the detail's for an upcoming vacation in July (which I am skeptical of, but it will be nice to know some details), and my brother's probable internship at our dad's workplace. I think my brother just wants to be a streamer, but this is something he should just do on the side for now until he has his own place and has a good amount of money saved up. Besides, it seems silly to get a Master's Degree only to become a gamer/streamer. But I digress. I hope this internship can help him with experience, since that is also recommended for getting a good job.

Brooooo after WEEKS of being hot and humid it's finally nice and chilly tonight. I love it.
