What Are You Happy About Today?

I’ve had an amazingly relaxing and better day than yesterday even though I worked today, and I just had an art commission of Deku and Lucky at the beach finished by the amazing and talented @Plume ! I love it so much I can’t stop staring at it. It’s just so cute. 🥺

My redo drawing ended up looking really good—better than the original. I wish I could color it but I know for sure that without proper shading and with colored pencils it’ll look bad, so I’ll have to settle leaving it as it is. I would love to share it with the voice actors too but, Idk if hand drawn uncolored art is worth posting and I’m not comfortable about sharing art outside of tbt. 🤔 Also am afraid of annoying people by tagging them.

I had a lot of fun doing that drawing and am considering drawing more characters as villagers; it was nice not needing to draw hands and fingers 😋 though I need to eventually if I want to draw on the same level as the artists I like now (I found two more I like this week 😊). I would like to have them doing something besides standing too 🤔 and then deciding on what animal.
 
-A tiny little acrylic stand I ordered arrived!! It's one I'd been eyeing for a while and I'm happy to finally have it.
-Went out and got some drive-through Dairy Queen with my mom and aunt! I got a frosted animal cookie Blizzard and it was great. ;v; Although even the small size was a bit too much for me, so I think I'll get a mini next time so I don't make myself sick, eheh.
-Played some Minecraft for the first time in a while! I kinda want to hold off on exploring too much until the second half of 1.17 gets released, so I just did some Creative-mode building and checked out some of the new blocks! There's still a bit of work to be done on the build, but it's almost complete and I had a lot of fun building it.
-Was able to buy a blue rose collectible from @Aniko!! Thank you again! 💙
 
I've had a lot of good things today, honestly. I don't even know where to start. A lot of very lovely people on here sent me happy birthday wishes, and seeing all of them just, made me really happy. It was just, really touching to come online and see the nice messages.

@Foreverfox gifted me a little cake collectible, which was just really sweet. It was such a wonderful surprise to find and I'm really grateful.

My mom surprised me this morning with a fancy lime cake for my birthday, that she had to go across town to get, and little sparkler candles themed after cartoon dynamite. They were so fun to watch burn, and the cake was really good.

And this morning my best friend sent me the gifts she made for my birthday, two absolutely gorgeous drawings of my two most precious OCs, drawn to make the style of the character portraits in Fire Emblem Three Houses, and they're just unbelievably gorgeous and I'm still really amazed that she made them just for me.

All in all, it was a really nice day. I still can't get over the nice messages I received on here especially honestly. They were such a complete surprise, and just really nice. ❤
 
I've spent more time in the, "what's bothering you" thread as of late complaining about the heat wave moving through Ontario but it's finally starting to cool down a little! I'm able to be on my laptop for the moment which makes it a lot easier to use TBT. I wanted to come share some of the positive things that have happened over the past week!

-We're officially in June! Summer is by far my least season but June is Pride Month and it's my first proper pride month. I made a thread in the Museum Shop last week to see if anybody would be open to making some pride art for me. I was so nervous to post the thread. I do have signatures/avi with my girlfriend in them quite often but I'm always nervous about requesting that art publicly (I generally PM artists instead) so making an entire thread about it was nerve wracking. However, the responses I got were so sweet! So many users were being supportive and it was the kindest thing. I was even lucky enough to have this adorable avatar created by @SpaceTokki77 and the lovely @jadetine made me a signature! 💕

-I got vaccinated on June 1st! I had a sore arm the first day/night but by the second night my arm was better. I had a headache for a while but with the heat wave it's hard to pinpoint what was heat related and what was vaccine related. Regardless I am so happy and thankful to have been able to get the first dose of the vaccine!

-Circling back to pride month - I mentioned this in the LGBT+ thread but I'll say it here as well! @Saylor was so incredibly kind and sent me two pride pins. I was only expecting one so it was such a pleasant surprise to see the other! They're both from the Disney pride collection and they're so cute. I'm not sure where I'm going to put them yet but I love them so much. She sent me a little rainbow coloured Stitch which is the cutest thing and she sent me a Mickey mouse symbol pin that has the lesbian pride flag colours! She also sent me a letter but she wrote a lie in it because she is not wiser than me

-We got my cats these little cooling mats and they're actually using them! We were nervous they might not and initially they were a little apprehensive about them but once Gracie started laying on them my other cat decided they must not be so bad. It's cooler here today but since we're only in the beginning of summer I'm sure there will be more hot days ahead so I'm glad we have the cooling mats!
 
my tapestry should be coming in the mail today! also expecting a plushie to arrive tomorrow! :blush:
edit: IT CAME AND IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL AHHHHH

along with that I'm planning my trip to Alabama and I'm making a packing list. I need to finish cleaning my room before I leave but I'm so excited for this trip!!!!
 
i ordered a lesbian pride pin to be shipped to my friend’s house since i’ll be (safely) visiting them in a few days, and they told me it shipped and should arrive while I’m there ☺️ I have no idea where I’m going to pin it because I can’t quite get pins onto my purse (ive tried 💔 the leather is too thick) and I don’t use a backpack anymore, but I’m excited to have it because it’s really cute. lesbian lemonade

also had a really nice date with my girlfriend last night into this morning so that started my day off well! we hang out a lot as is but she told me that she wants to get in time with me before I’m unavailable for a week and that has me 🥰🥰🥰

Happy belated birthday! 🥳 I’m so glad everything went smoothly! Your friend sounds so incredibly awesome and thoughtful (I am a little jealous 😋). Hope things get even better for you (considering what you mentioned before) and this year ends up being a good year for you. :)
 
Today I am happy that I made it through the day in one piece. I feel bad that some people are feeling hurt when I’m not around, but whenever I‘m back I make sure to bring all my positivity with me. I’m also super nervous and also excited to find out if this place is going to hire me or not. :)
 
I finally got my desktop computer hooked up! I missed using this computer at my own desk. I almost forgot how comfortable my desk chair is lol, the one at the dorm was insufferable.

I also suddenly decided to pull out a keyboard which I've had for like 5 years and didn't decide to use until now. my old keyboard was wireless and there wasn't anything wrong with it but I like having keys that poke up a bit more so I got out my wired one. the sound of the keys clicking is pretty loud and I honestly love it lol.
