What Are You Happy About Today?

I got my first dose of COVID vaccine today! I ended up with pfizer, which I'm pretty pleased about. It was a chill experience and the staff working there were all really nice,,they were working some really long shifts too, I can't commend them enough.

I also went into town with my mum to pick up the ring she got me for my birthday, and got some new Doc Martens as a bonus birthday gift (my old ones had kinda fallen apart on the inside).

I cleaned and polished my floor today too, which always makes me happy once it's done and I see how much nicer it looks. Overall I'd say I had a pretty productive day!
 
I had a great time playing Smash friendlies on the same team as @Minou and @shawo ! I don’t think I’ll be able to participate in tomorrow’s session, so I’m glad I got one final playtime of Smash with some TBTers for now.

The Dallas Mavericks took game one of round one of the playoffs against the LA Clippers 113-103! Super ecstatic about that as I wasn’t expecting it.

Also, new episode of MHA today! :D
 
I got some much needed sleep today and finally feel rested again after a week of sleeping poorly. I've also got my new laptop up and running and it's a huge improvement over my old one. I was able to get so much more done this evening due to the increase in speed.
 
today was another uneventful day but it was still pretty decent! ☺

• i slept really well last night! it was one of those nights where i didn’t even realize that i had fallen asleep until i woke up, saw it was light outside and thought that i’d only been out for an hour or so 😅. a bit jarring but incredibly restful as well!
• watched a new movie today! i watched “dying to be loved” / “a mother’s suspicion” while i kept my cat company out in the living room and uh,, it wasn’t bad but there’s definitely better movies out there lol.
• spectated 3 gaming sessions and had fun chatting on discord! i can’t believe that the event ends tomorrow 😭. i’ve had so much fun creating art, spectating and i’ve even made some new friends!! but knowing me, i probably won’t remember to check discord after tomorrow lmao.
• found myself in a situation earlier that had me feeling really anxious but thankfully everything turned out fine!!
• my aunt went grocery shopping for my grandmother (whom i live with) yesterday but she also brought over some home-cooked meals. i had the beef stir fry she made for dinner tonight and omg....... it was so good. 😭🤤
• completed an assignment for class and i think i actually did well on it!
• successfully submitted my two team cheer creations for the day.
 
I've made another huge chunk of progress on my visual cheer! It's looking pretty tight, but I may be able to make it before the event finishes! I'm just begging my laptop to hold on just a little longer so everything will be smooth sailing from here. :)
 
-I've already finished my final cheers for TBTWC tomorrow, so I'm giving myself a nice break and just relaxing for the rest of this weekend! ^^ I got started on the Howling Peaks DLC for Minecraft Dungeons and played some more PMD: Blue Rescue Team today as well, which I'm enjoying even more than I thought I would!
-Added to my desktop wallpaper collection again!
-Finished watching season 2 of Winx Club! I think Layla and Flora are pretty firmly my favorites now. Also I know it's not gonna happen but I just really want Musa to dump Riven and date Layla ok
-Got a really cute new pin today and put it up on my corkboard! There's still some empty spaces on it, but it's maybe a little over half full now and I think it's shaping up quite nicely.
 
Today was the first day I felt like we were moving past the pandemic, even with a mask on, because:
  • I went to the salon and had my hair colored and cut, after 2+ years of having it go wild. Sadly, it was the first time it was too gray to donate, but the experience was so new and refreshing. Goodbye 12+ inches of hair!
  • I visited a bakery with my son and bought items from real people without rushing out past a to-go counter. It was my first direct shopping experience instead of picking up something ordered online.
  • Sat in a traffic jam. I haven't driven outside a 10 minute radius of my home in a while and just seeing so many cars and people reminded me of how populated my city could be.
I'm also happy that the TBTWC taught me it was feasible to make art everyday and still want more. I thought I would detest the marathon, but I wake up every day wanting to pick up my stylus and learn new techniques. ☺
 
Today is the me and my son's 2nd fetal surgery birthday. Two years ago today, I underwent surgery, 5 months pregnant, and 3 days after our wedding, for doctors do surgery on our unborn son to repair the hole in his spine. Every day, I see the benefits from it. It really is like a first birthday for him before his real birthday!
 
My mood has been a bit wonky today, but there were some good things that happened today.

I have the house to myself and can stay up as late as I want tonight 🥳

I found my colored pencils and was able to submit a drawing for the daily participation points and it turned out better and more than I planned. I originally planned on making just delibird but thinking about its move present, i thought I could make that work with the you got a star meme :). I was going to have him simply holding a gift but I am terrible at drawing presents 😅.

I tried to do one of the pictures i posted as a sample in this art commission thread but am clueless how to get the dumpling color and the shading, so have plans to try some of the other screenshots I took.

Still am enjoying pokemon snap. :) Impatient to unlock more stickers. I just unlocked another cool frame though. I keep unlocking profile icons which I am least interested in right now 😅 but I don’t want to look up what is unlockable otherwise I will just not do the requests that either doesn’t unlock a sticker or the sticker is something I don’t like.
 
I had a great time at the museum today and got some good photos while there. It was a lot of fun as a late birthday celebration. 😁

I also posted the Steven Universe donut song on _Donut_’s profile and I can’t wait for him to log on and see it. 😂

Lastly, I’m looking forward to seeing who the winners of my giveaway will be in a couple hours as well as the TBTWC closing ceremony tomorrow! :D
 
I went out shopping today and bought stuff. I like buying things.

One of the things I bought is a BIG blanket. Like, 5'x7' or bigger. I really like blankets and soft things, like stuffed animals and pillows. I think I may want a weighted blanket too.
 
I have been really enjoying drawing; it has been helping distract me from some of my anxiety. I really wish I could do digital art like Hellyon White or like anyone on here. This tournament has made me appreciation art even more than before.

Didn’t have time to work on the food art, but I my submissions down for my team at least :). I didn’t expect to make it as big as I did. I realized I forgot to put a quote for blue team; not sure what I would have them say. 🤔
