What Are You Happy About Today?

[Asarena]

It rained today. It's been pretty dry here lately, so it was nice to finally get some rain. And I love rainy and/or stormy days in general. It's supposed to rain more tomorrow

☾ I got started re-reading volume 21 of Kimi ni Todoke today! I think I must be getting close to the point where I left off but I hadn’t realized I was so close to the end of the series anyway. the characters all angsting about college and their futures was a little too real for me when I was seventeen-ish ahahah ;w; it's an easier read for me now thankfully!

☾ Watched Grian’s castle raid video with my parents this evening and ohh my god it was incredible lmao the custom resource pack...

☾ Also! I don’t normally consider myself a Lego person but I absolutely adored this Lego recreation of Pelican Town from Stardew Valley!!

The tiny Lego Elliott and Emily were so cute??? I... may have actually squealed a little when I spotted them askjsfdfdkljgj

I'm so happy I'm off the next 3 days. I'm so wiped out.

 

[skarmoury]

the past few days!

- finished the pharma module! BOY that was... a module for sure. very tiring. it was only 18 hours (the other modules are 20+ hours) but it was the LONGEST 18 hours of any lecture i've listened to since it was so difficult to process.... but im happy that at least i got through it, so rereading won't be as bad.
- had the usual Sunday restaurant dinner with parents, had pizza and beef steak, it was yummy
- finally got my hands on the special 7/11 Lapras card that came along w the Stellar Crown booster packs! Been eyeing that 7/11 card for a week now and i'm glad i got to scout a 7/11 that still had it in stock. The pack also had Orthoworm EX, not a card I'm an extreme fan of but hey, i'll take any special card!
- finished 6.5 hours of physio lecture yesterday plan to finish physio in the next 2-3 days hopefully!
- started playing a silly romhack of an emerald game, managed to get shiny Makuhita and shiny Spinarak ^^ the shiny Spinarak was so funny because I was taking so long finding a female Arcanine with intimidate that I managed to find a shiny mon before that damn Arcanine.
- got to talk to friends as well, they all help keep my spirits up and im glad i have people to talk to on a daily/almost daily basis
- forgot to mention, but last week bandori finally dropped MyGO in game aaa.... one of my favorite jpop bands ;w; i pulled 5* Soyo and 5* Anon!! <3 tomori please come home pspsps....
- lastlyyyy , I won the snow bunny plush raffle!!!!! im still so astounded.... i was on discord when the post dropped and my friends were tagging me congratulating me and i was like?? what what.... LOL. im still in disbelief like, i was sad when i didnt have enough tickets for the bunny plush back when it was stocked cuz i really wanted one, but ahhhh in the end i still got to have one and i also got an nso+, two stationery with some stickers, and maple lego??? thank you so much tbt what the heck im so so happy

My brother got me a special Sonic the Hedgehog 3 poster with Shadow on it! It's so edgy!

Also, Metallica is FINALLY coming to Philadelphia and they'll be playing the week before my father's birthday, so I got us tickets as a birthday present for him!

- my partner comes back today from Seattle. They went to go see a concert. I went grocery shopping and stocked up on snacks they like. Also apparently they got me a souvenir so I'm excited to see what it is. I hope it's a keychain
- there were mugs on clearance at Walmart so I got my mom a couple for fall. My mom can't get out of the house very easily so I like to get her little surprises to keep her spirits up
- I've been playing pocket camp again. Imma gonna miss it when it leaves at the end of the year, even if it is crappy and repetitive. I'm also replaying Story of Seasons AWL on the switch. I might try Harvest Moon 64 after this cause there's a version on the switch that you can play with the expansion pack
- my dad got some Girl Guide mint cookies so he gave me a box

I’m struggling again, but a couple things that made me happy .

Last night I used up all my free tickets in Fate Go on Super Orion; I got him with my last ticket .

Spoiler

I didn’t exactly need him since I have two other good archers but he is placed higher on the tier list and offered something different than the other two that I have, so I thought having him would still be beneficial .

I had a nice little chat with @Xara; been having fun bantering about Among Us .

I just found another nearly busted radio in the recycling bin in ACNH .

I’m making good progress on my orderable clothing catalogues; I started with about 900ish items on that list. Now I have 592 left .

Yesterday my mom made tacos for us.

I’m also happy that everyone that I play Among Us with were really kind and understanding about me possibly needing time off for some of the sessions because of something I’m dealing with right now. I really am grateful. I’m hoping my mood improves more or what I’m dealing with is resolved on a happier note so I can make it to the rest of the sessions .

Had a lil cat nap again
Played animal crossing gamecube version and lets go to the city.
Been training my pokemon on my heartgold nuzlocke.

Bit of a self thought ramble

Ever since my younger cousin got his own switch, he's been getting better at Smash Brothers Ultimate. I know he practices a lot.

I've never had anybody who could actually challenge me. And man, it's actually kinda nice being able to play seriously with somebody again. Right now it's my less practiced characters he can beat. But still. Improvement is improvement and it's pretty awesome.

Will he catch up fully? Maybe. With my better characters I can usually keep up at a tournament level. I am excited to see how far he does go or how much he will challenge me in the future.

I stopped playing actively but this gives me reason to play again from time to time.

It has been a great relaxing day off. It was really nice out this morning so we took Aurora to the park for her morning walk. We saw bunnies while we were there.
This morning we prepared for the possibility of a hurricane hitting on Thursday by taking in all the yard decorations and furniture.
Thanks to the encouragement of the amazing @-Blue- and the amazing @Xara I made an art thread today. I worked on my Halloween drawing even though it’s only September but I felt inspired so why not. Almost done with it.
Going to draw some more this evening and maybe play some ACNH.
Hope everyone had a great day.

Spoiler: Park day

☾ I made it to the Pokémon League in Pokémon X and defeated the Elite Four + Diantha! oddly it wasn't her who I had the most trouble with, instead Siebold nearly wrecked my entire team asjlkfhgkdfj I was able to get started on the postgame content just a smidge as well c:

☾ This evening my family and I watched ImpulseSV’s Minecraft castle raid video, which was really cool!

☾ I’ve also been working on some owed art and enjoying that! my new mechanical pencil is really nice aaaa... I love being able to get super fine lines without having to constantly worry about sharpening ;w;

The past few days :3

- On Saturday my BPD was acting up severely; and my mental health tanked almost completely.. My boyfriend brought me a Dr. Pepper, a Hershey Kiss ('cause I'm always asking for kisses hehe), and a chocolate bar.. and even wrote such a cute little note. He left it on my doorstep, because I didn't wanna see him.. I was scared of having another episode on him so :'3 I kinda pushed him away.. BUT!!! The kind, caring gesture he did for me really.. made me so happy..

- Sunday, I felt better enough to see him c: We played Demon Slayer: Sweep the Board together and we had A LOT of fun. He won, of course.. -w- But, I was happy that he came to hang out. He even brought Taco Bell for us ;w; That also made me happy.. he knew just what I wanted without even asking me He even gave me a cologne spray for my separation anxiety. He's going on vacation this Sunday, and by the time he gets back-- I'LL be on vacation.. T^T So, the spray is really gonna help, I think.

- Oh! I also won a full set of pins from the Fair raffle! That made me EXTREMELY happy because that was what I really wanted! I'm gonna give the Snow Bunny pin to my sister, @Azzy, because I know she loves the Snow Bunny collectible and stuff-- and I think she also wanted to win something too but didn't xD So I hope the Snow Bunny pin makes her happy! ^_^

- Went to my sisters Monday night.. I'm still here but we're having a great time together! We've just been coexisting together while we do our own thing. Chatting and enjoying each others company :3 She also forced me to watch some of the Obey Me! anime, and despite my attention span doing its thing-- I still enjoyed what I watched xD I love Mammon and Beel so much.. my baybays!!! >w<

- Played AC:NH for a while today. I plan on playing a bit more because I only brought my Switch, my phone-- and laptop, but did NOT bring my laptop charger :^/ So that was annoying. But I'm happy that I get to enjoy playing AC:NH xD

- Talked with @Midoriya a bit the past couple of days. He makes me real happy, 'cause he's such a genuine and caring friend! :3 I love chatting with him. His jokes and hearing about his day and stuff lift my spirits c:

- @Chibi.Hoshi, @Vhoop, and a few other of my friends chatted a bunch the past few days as well! I LOVE my little friend group :3 I enjoy laughing with them and joking around and just genuinely having a good time together. Chibi is the greatest, and so are the rest of my lil' pals!!

- Been pretty ill this past week but a couple days ago was finally well enough to do a shift at work again and now I finally got the energy/motivation to clean the house and my room, which has made me feel better! Nobody had mopped or swept at all for the 2+ weeks I was away

 

[daisyflowers]

lunar remastered collection got announced during the state of play yesterday - i'd heard about the original titles not long ago and thought they looked cool but it was only available on original consoles, hyped about it! i'm a bit obsessed with the anime cutscenes

booked a covid + flu vaccination :3

 

[danmokun]

Whaddup, everyone! Are you all awake yet? I hope not, because today is Woooorld Dream Day! I'm happy today because that means I get to share the kind of dreams I have and I'm talkin' about the dreams I have of yoooou. Those are the best dreams! So pull up a pillow and maybe a beautiful plush toy and bundle up for this one!

I dream you and I dream real.
Dreams I dream of you,
are dreams that I can feel.

I can feel your hands in dreams
and feel our fingers wrapped betweens.
I can feel your lips in sleep
and I can feel our lips go deep.

I can feel your heart in slumber
and feel our heartbeats match in number.
I can feel your hugs at night
and I can feel our arms hold tight.

When you wake and I'm not found,
don't forget I dream for real.
Someday soon I'll come around
and every day you'll wake up sealed,
in my embrace.

I realised yesterday I put a midsem and an assignment into the wrong week on my calendar and I have three assignments and a midsem next week which was a bit panic inducing, but my family, and especially my partner have been such a light in my life honestly

It was their birthday on Monday and we spent the day together, just chatting, going for a walk and playing some games. I've just been feeling really grateful for them right now, for their support but also just feeling lucky because they're such an amazing person that I'm lucky to have in my life

After I stopped working on assignments for the day we just played some minecraft together for a while, I was helping them a bit with this cool build they're doing and it was just a lot of fun just listening to music and chatting.

I'm just grateful that through everything irl going stressful at the moment, for the people in my life.

On a less sappy note, I had a really nice curry for dinner HAH, and I was grateful to put a decent chunk in the assignment I hadn't started until today (because I thought I had two weeks and it's for an elective unit).

 

[SkyKnight03]

This is genuinely one of my favorite online videos. It makes me happy whenever I see it.

I always watched the Orangutan Island show before school in the morning. They are incredibly intelligent and conservation programs to keep them alive are very important.

My partner did in fact bring me back a keychain from Seattle and it's pompompurin but he's also a burger so it suits me perfectly.

I finally got a diagnosis for symptoms I've been complaining to doctors about for five years. Chronic fatigue syndrome. Bless having a doctor who listens rather than turning me away when my bloods came back mostly normal. I've been referred to a specialist and also a cardiologist for a heart monitor, but whatever, we are making progress and this is good. Knowing we've a name and there is treament to manage the condition (even if there is no cure) is such a relief.

After 5 weeks off work I'm going back to work tomorrow. It'll be a phased return and I've a meeting with HR to discuss adjustments, but I'm glad to be getting my life back. We are closed on Friday and Monday so my first day back will be followed by four days off - but I think this will be a major confidence boost. A lot of people with my condition don't work, but that sounds like hell to me! I'm lucky I have an amazing employer who is willing to work with me to retain me.

I'm so very excited for when we bring our kittens home in 2.5 weeks. I have moments where I'm just sat on the couch and imagine them fully grown in front of me and it is bliss. My partner and I aren't intending to have human kids for a very long time (if ever), so they'll be our babies.
