What Are You Happy About Today?

[_Donut_]

Just finished paying off my credit card debt. I’m not one to use a credit card much, but during college I didn’t have any loans and I felt bad about the money my parents did give me.

It’s nice to have that weight lifted. Now all future paycheques can actually start to accumulate in my account instead of always going towards paying off as much debt as possible.

That's amazing! Congrats on that milestone, must've really felt like a heavy weight being lifted from your shoulders

Honestly, I had a mocha frappe and it was really good. I have this frappe mix, I just add milk and ice, put it in my blender and it's perfect. Sometimes it's the little things that make me happy

• made a start on my presentation that I’ve been procrastinating for weeks
• had some lovely feedback about a student I volunteer with - my voluntary work is coming to an end soon so it’s lovely to know it’s made a difference to their learning
• My boyfriend made me a lovely iced coffee!
• I had a long lie in today as I didn’t have class til the afternoon
• The sun is shining AGAIN (this is big news from a Brit)
• Having fajitas and corn on the cob for tea (maybe a strange combo but I’ve been craving corn on the cob recently)
• I accidentally missed my meds yesterday so feeling a lot better today after taking them again, it’s maybe subconscious and the weather definitely helps but either way it’s a win

Went for my first jog outside in years. My stamina is pretty bad haha I used to be able to run 3km when I was young without stopping or slowing down. Today was more like 1/3 km haha.

Was good to get out and run again though.

I won a giveaway on Instagram worth over $400 of stuff!

I got a lot of good sleep and received another paycheck. Ended up earning more than I expected . I also don’t have work again for awhile and can spend today playing Pokemon Uranium and applying for jobs/doing more research.

finally got my dog and cat a nametag! my dog got a cute rainbow one and the cat...weeeeeeell she's always been a priss. will let you pet her one second and then smack you the next. so her tag is a cute heart that says her name and then "aka lil *****" right after. xD i joked to my mom about it and she said no, but went and did it anyways.

Just met my neighbors other dog while I was out watering the plants. He's so cute! A Labrador I think, saw on his nametag that he's named Dash. Their other puppy, Wally, came running out too when he saw me leaning over their fence giving out pets haha. They're super friendly and really put me in a good mood!

I also find it funny that I now know the neighbor's dogs name but not the neighbor's themselves.

A few things that made me happy today:

• While it happened in the middle of the night, it technically still happened today. Before I closed my laptop and charged it overnight, I had this one song paused. While it was being charged, my laptop was getting updated. After finishing, the song that I had on pause started playing despite the fact my laptop was closed lol. It woke me up but instead of getting cranky, I just listened to it all the way through with a smile before I opened and closed my laptop again. The volume level was perfect too as it wasn't too loud or too quiet. Here is the song in question that was playing. Those who know me well on this forum already know where it's gonna come from before clicking on the link. Or you could look at my signature for a hint.
• I managed to watch more classic Spongebob episodes and listened to music throughout the day.
• I got some practice drawing cars again. I did the side view, but I also challenged myself to do it from another perspective. For the sake of keeping things simple for myself, I drew a Volkswagen SambaBus '62. Not perfect, but it's a start since I'm just sketching and getting used to it. And since Sambabuses are usually associated with hippies, I decided to have Harvey drive it in one of the drawings for the giggles (though he is quite small). To top it off, the wheels look cleaner thanks to drawing so many circles for practice. Take that, wheels!

Spoiler: My SambaBus drawings compared to real photos

My husband and I got our second round of COVID shots and the wait wasn't nearly as long as the first time. Glad to get that over with even though I know we've still got a long way to go before things are normal again.

I drew something for Mick in Draw the User Above you thread and I had a lot of fun drawing it. I am not an artist so, even though I have been lurking in that thread for awhile, I was afraid of participating since I didn’t want to disappoint anyone with my poor quality art. The artwork ended up better than I thought and Mick liked it . That made me really happy (and pyoopi said she liked it too which made me really happy too). I feel a bit encouraged and may try drawing again if I can stop being lazy ; still need to update my island journal too. But anyways, just happy with how that turned out and excited with the art I’m commissioning yanrimasart for . was worried about my request being unreasonable and that i was annoying but she accepted it . Can’t wait for nef to open his art thread up too.

-I got the rare chance to play more Code: Realize ~Future Blessings~ today! I managed to make a ton of progress too, and I'm getting fairly close to finishing it! ;v;
-Some of the secondhand merch I ordered arrived today, which was way way earlier than expected!! An acrylic stand and a small acrylic keychain that I'll never actually use as a keychain ahaha; I've got it pinned up on my corkboard instead with a little heart-shaped push pin.

fortnite has that salt meme as a emote you know this thing? it's important to the story i swear ;w;

anyways i started playing as cluck the chicken in my last couple sessions tonight. was waiting in a lobby and started emoting right next to someone by accident and got stuck on them and the emote happened to make me crouch under them a bit (evasive maneuvers).

next thing i know this comedian starts using the salt emote and it goes perfectly over my chicken themed skin. i realize that they're salting me up to eat and squeal, back up from them, and crouch really quick. i started backing up while crouched and they started following me menacingly and slowly while i was squealing "no i'm not food don't eat me!!" xD i'd show a clip, but fortnite doesn't let you take em on switch. >:c

Finished off a project that has consumed almost every waking hour over the past four days. Presenting it during a video conference in three hours time and I'm equal parts excited and nervous.

 

[Tsukuri_Yukimura]

Well 3 things really.

-Finally finished rewatching all of Inuyasha. All seasons, Final Act, and all 4 movies.
-Finished my Noblesse Spread in my Anime Journal...I love Raizel soo much.
-My cat has finally gotten used to my BB- 8 Droid I built at Disney...so now I can play with it without freaking her out.

Was tasked to make a teaser poster for a local children's book we're publishing and the art style is definitely within my comfort zone!! Showed the teaser poster to my fellow teammates and they loved it a lot, I'm so happy :"(
