June is my favorite month of the year. I remember in one of the threads in the off-topic section, I was raving on about how much I loved June and why. Here are the following things I have been happy about this month.

June 4th, my dad and my brother got their first dose of the (I think it was Pfizer's) vaccine. Unfortunately, I couldn't get mine yet, since I don't have any form of an ID, but it was nice that my dad finally took us all down there (even if I can't get mine yet) and to see other people there too. Achieving herd immunity may not be an overnight process, but it is just nice seeing/hearing about people getting vaccinated. I am not sure when I will get my two doses. I texted my mom a few days ago to send us a school ID I had, since I heard the vaccine receptionists will accept those, but it might be a while, since my mom actually got COVID. ;-; (she lives eight hours away from us, so I will not get COVID from her)
But I am kinda glad I didn't get the vaccine yet, since we actually had plans the next day to do stuff (which I will be getting into in a bit), and I would prefer to get my doses when I have nothing going on the next two or three days.

June 5th we had a birthday celebration for me and my dad's birthday. My birthday is June 9th and my dad's is June 11th. We went to my grandparents and swim. My uncle ordered food from this delicious burger joint. And we had chocolate cake, and vanilla and bunny trails ice cream. I also got a cute wallet for my birthday which I needed a wallet to keep my important cards I have and will get more organized. My grandparents got me a $100 gift card, and I got a $100 bill from my uncle. And I took a dip in the pool for a bit. I love going over to my grandparents during the Summer. <333

June 9th, as I mentioned above, was my birthday. I turned 23. I had a pretty good birthday this year. I mostly celebrated it with my friends, since we had the party four days prior. I got some cute pictures from my friends. Including
this from my friend Ethan (he is the one wearing the blue and green) and
this portrait of me from my friend Ash. We got Whataburger for dinner, and got a $500 gift card. My dad put in $300, and I put in $200 that my uncle had given me, as my uncle usually gives them for Christmas and my birthday. I already have some ideas of what I want to buy: I plan on putting some of it on my Apple ID, I plan on buying Miitopia, and if I can gather the courage, maybe look to commission a few people to draw me and my fictional other.

June 11th (Friday afternoon) until Monday at about noon, I have been/will be having the house to myself. I like it, because it's nice and quiet and I don't have to worry about bothering my dad and my brother or getting in their way when I want to go into the kitchen to fix something to eat, and vice-versa. I especially love it at evening and night. Usually my brother treats his room like a FRAT house, blasts music, and yells to his friends over his XBOX (this can happen any time of day, but it's usually at night), so it's nice to get a break from hearing all that.
June is also Pride Month. For me, my sexuality is a bit complicated...I am aromantic and asexual towards real people, but I do experience attraction towards male and female fictional characters. I don't know if this means I am asexual or bisexual...a lot of people claim that fictosexuality is invalid and mocks the LGBT community, while I don't believe these things, I try to not use the label as loosely, because I don't want to stir things up. It is said that being attracted exclusively to fictional characters falls on the aro-ace spectrum, therefore people like me are closer to considered being aro-ace over all orientations. My fictional other is of opposite gender, but since I do experience attraction to female characters too, and I am a firm believer in equality and world peace, things like Pride Month do mean a lot to me.
