got a hello kitty jewelry box from a drift store in good condition and also got a fail fix cat pet for the doll. I got the jewelry box for my doll house because it will be a dresser. Also has a mirror!
-Even though I wasn't feeling well this afternoon, I still managed to finish my cheers for the team today! I've been having a lot of fun working on those in general, and they've given me a good opportunity to experiment a little. ^^
-Got some new desktop wallpapers today! Also found some official art of some of my comfort characters that I didn't have already, which is always nice.
-I caught up a little bit on a livestream I missed! I like being there when it's live, but it's nice to be able to take breaks from an old stream without having to worry about missing anything.
My furniture and other stuff arrived today. It fits in my room much better than I expected! I set up my bed and o m g I am so happy to have my bed back, I'm so damn comfortable rn
-Cleaned my apartment today, it's a small thing I guess but it always feels nice afterward
-I have managed to be very productive with work these last couple of days
-Got to support my team with cheer again today, really enjoying coming home and feeling a part of something like this- especially with all of the cold weather outside.
-Saw that my local EB Games have re-released series 1-4 of amiibo cards and bought a few packets! Lucky enough not to get any duplicates despite owning a far few cards I have collected from over the years.
I finally sent off some tedious financial stuff in the mail! Had to wait ages because my dad needed to retrieve something for me, but I'm really happy it's done and I got it over with,,
My clothes hangers came today too! I had to order some online because I couldn't find any white wooden hangers in any shops near me
about a week ago I went to the nearby secondhand video game store to see if they had a copy of Halo 3, cause I played forge mode in that game a lot when I was younger and I'd like to relive those days (as well as try my hand at the campaign). they did have Halo 1, 2, 4, and 5, but no 3/ODST. I figured okay, I'll wait patiently and call them a week later to see if they get one in. called them yesterday and they still didn't have one, so I gave in and bought a copy off of ebay for like $8. it's supposed to arrive no later than wednesday of next week so I'm really excited for that.
also met up with my dad earlier today cause he wanted to give me my graduation announcements to fill out, and the encounter went surprisingly well. I told my mom I'm tired of him pestering me, I'm almost 22 and he needs to stop telling me what to do (he recently tried to tell me "don't put it off" more than once when I was discussing my career services stuff, yet he puts stuff off all the time. he still hasn't filed his taxes and the deadline is in like 5 days). today he did nothing of the sort. he didn't ask me about career services or anything else, he just asked how my papers were coming along and he also didn't say "yOu NeEd tO GeT iT DoNe" he was just like "ah okay cool." I know my mom talked to him about pestering me and hopefully he learned from it. idk if this means things have changed but it would be really nice if for once my dad could be the one who makes a change.
I met and was promptly jumped on by a big, friendly, very excited, chonky-floppy pit bull today! He almost knocked me over (and I'm pretty sturdy) but it was clearly well-intentioned, ahaha. I wasn't able to get a good look at his collar before he ran off, but he seemed like he might've been heading home anyway. I've seen some dogs who get really excited over hearing "who's a good boy?!", but none quite so much as this fella.
While I was not happy to hear I have a hair appointment in the morning in a few days as well as an eye appointment for another day, and in spite my mood earlier, today ended on a good note aside from that. Had a lot of fun watching the streamed events today and felt a little more comfortable saying hi to everyone and chatting . Happy my mom is letting me use her room to sleep and retreat in while my room is being worked on, though i miss my cats coming in my room to snuggle :/. I think this event is honestlt helping me stay calm and unwind. I ams till unhappy about so many things and with myself, but this event has helped me forget some of that for a little bit at least. Thanks staff .
I ordered Pokemon snap for my last part of my bday gift and it should be here by next monday if not sooner. I can’t wait .

Oh forgot to mention the really pleasant surprise. @p e p p e r sent me a carnation with a nice little message to cheer on the Jolly Redd’s. Thanks so much! .
I’m happy because I’m going back to work at one of my old jobs. It was one of the very few jobs that I actually left on good terms. My most recent job fired me and I’m happy to get back to working and actually bringing in income. My consultation for my dental implants actually got moved to the 19th, so I’m excited for that. I’m getting a certain tooth extracted during the consultation as it’s an emergency and I don’t think it’ll last until extraction day. I’m so thankful that the implantologist is offering to remove it for me. I just hope it isn’t too difficult to remove as the tooth is broken and a little part of it is sticking out. I’m keeping it safe until the 19th though.
I am this close to having a new job. I found one in my area that would be really good for me and would be just what I need. It would put an end to all the research I’ve been having to do and I’m sure they could use my help too. Plus I would be making at least triple what I’m making now, if not more. Going to give my 110% in trying to secure it as it would be a huge relief if I did. Also have just made some realizations about myself as a person recently.
Holiday/long weekend (Ascension day is a public holiday here and some workplaces also have Friday off). Also the fact that I've so many books to read, been missing doing that so much! Feels nice having an actual job without having to worry about applying for other stuff!
A lot of what I'm going to talk about is The Bell Tree World Championship.
While my team (Blue's Clues) is not exactly at the top of the standings, I'm happy to be able to contribute points to my team!
Taking part in Mario Kart 8, watching live streams, and chatting with other members on Discord brings me happiness.
Since we get points for cheering on for our team, I've been pushing myself to make more drawings. I've already noticed that I've been getting speedier drawing stuff and I appreciate the support from my team members. I'm considering making more short animations for practice since I want to become an animator!
I'm probably overselling this, but this is the happiest I've been on the forums participating in games and interacting with other people.
also only have a few assignments left to do before the end of the semester and though that includes writing three different essays (ugh) they're relatively short and shouldn't take too long to write. A week from now I'll officially be done with classes and two weeks from now I'll be done with my bachelor's degree!! <333
I’m happy I just finished work. I was dreading today. I knew we were going to be playing a game at work and I don’t like to participate lol
I was afraid I might get called out.
Our new internet service is working out just fine and I was able to cancel Comcast/Xfinity without a lot of hassle today. My husband took the modem back to the Xfinity store so I didn't have to worry about it.
Tomorrow is Friday and I only have to work half a day. I'm planning on running a few errands in the afternoon so hopefully I can get some more things checked off my to-do list.
