  • England vs Scotland in the Euros in half an hour! Rooting for England is hard when you live in Scotland haha.
  • It’s officially 1 week until we move!
  • Finished the pet portrait I’ve been working on for months for my friends birthday present - she absolutely loved it and I’m so happy! 😊

@Shellzilla drew me some beautiful art in exchange for the drawing I did and it is seriously so adorable.

Please let me know if you want me to remove. I don’t want to make you uncomfortable

He also made me a cute animated and non-animated sprite; will use one as my avatar once I get the okay. 😊 Thank you so much! This really made my day. I feel like I got more out of the trade than you though so please let me know if what I sent isn’t enough or you want me to make you some smaller drawings or whatever you feel is equivalent to what you did. :) And forgive me for this weird thinking, I am really self-conscious 😅.
 
I had the day off from work, but I got a lot done today at home. I had a good rehab session and the doctor says next week will be my last one, but she wants to come up some new ways to challenge me. So I guess I'll find out what that will entail next week.

I've been working on a poem and I'm pretty happy with how it's turning out. I'm starting to get my groove back, I think.
 
I had a good appointment with my therapist today, our appointment was over video. I used to see her and my psychiatrist in person but since covid happened they temporarily switched to over the phone but now they have a video system set up so I can videochat with with them for our appointments. It was good to see her face after so long. Technology is the best. :)
 
-Washed my sheets and blankets and now they're warm and smell really nice and it's just lovely.
-My dad gave me $10 today just for the heck of it! Gonna hold onto it for now until I decide on something to buy with it.
-I think I've built a little muscle from the small workouts I've been doing! I feel like I'm noticing some definition around my abs that wasn't there before, which is cool. 💪
 
  • Seeing @Dunquixote feeling happy and using my sprite animation as her profile picture brought me great happiness. I originally didn’t intend to make the sprite animation, but going above and beyond paid off.
  • I’ve been reading a few The Legend of Zelda mangas recently, particularly Oracle of Seasons, Oracle of Ages, and Phantom Hourglass. Just reading them plays the soundtrack from those respective games in my head.
  • I’m so glad I bothered to check out the Nintendo eshop sale because I got Okami HD at 50% off (after dealing with widespread issues of games refusing to download thanks to the recent system update)! I only played the first few minutes of the game so far and it’s already left me a good first impression.
 
Failed my comprehensive exam today but I feel fine since my friends failed too LMAO. I got a higher score by a small margin so cool lol. I'm glad the professors were kind enough to only grade the comprehensive exam if it made our grade higher, and if it was low they'd just disregard it. At least I don't have to worry about it haha.

My boyfriend ordered me chicken nuggets to deliver to my house when I said I had a disastrous exam. I'm excited to binge watch with nuggets and fries before studying for my final final exam later.
 
I finally received my German resident permit! I am sooo relieved! This whole process plus the added stress of Brexit (if you voted leave don’t talk to me) has taken a huge toll on my mental health. I’m so happy to finally put this behind me and look forward to the future.
 
I tried mochi for the first time today! 😋 They finally started stocking Little Moons at Morrisons so I got the coconut and the pistachio flavours! They were both really nice,,

I also changed my sheets so my bed feels nice and clean, and my dad ordered me a desk and office chair as a very late birthday present, so they should arrive soon-ish. I'm excited to add more furniture to my room, and I'll need the desk for when I start uni in september

Also bought a bottle of wine and a card for my granddad for father's day tomorrow (I already got my dad's presents weeks ago haha)
 
I came to a realization today. I’m not taking my life seriously enough. Nothing ever happens unless you make it happen and take the initiative. That’s how real change happens. I’m going to start giving 110% into everything I do, whether it’s helping my family around the house, applying for jobs, or just anything else really. I’m not going to be as content as I was before and I’m never going to give up. I am able to do better than this, and now I want to do better than this. I think that’s what my mom would have wanted for me too. I think I made a good start on this today, and I just got to keep it going every day until it’s second nature and I improve as a person. That’s what it means to go beyond. Plus ultra. :)
 
My friend that went MIA finally has returned. She’s doing alright, I’m just really glad she’s okay! We actually got to see each other in person today so that was really nice! :)
 
Ordered 14 colors of cat paw thumb grips for my Switch with the money my dad gave me, and I still have a few dollars left over! I'll probably put it towards music on iTunes, but right now I'm just really excited about the thumb grips, because kitty paws and pretty color combinations. Unfortunately the set did not include any lavender ones, but I'll live.
