What Are You Happy About Today?

A gacha game I play has announced a collab with Fullmetal Alchemist! 🤩 The game has been really harsh on f2p players more though and we had a lot of back to back good banners and no sources of crystals, which sucks :/. I hope I have enough by then and I have better luck than I had for the last several banners I pulled on. Still excited though 🥳. Would love it if in addition to Ed and Al, maybe Greed or Maes Hughes or Mustang gets a unit too (those are my favorites 😋).
 
  • It rained this morning as it was pretty sunny and humid in the last few days, so I got a small relief from hearing noises of rain and not dealing with boiling hot temperatures.
  • I've been getting a good amount of sleep in the last few days.
  • I'm noticing that I'm in a brighter mood since I've been going on walks numerous times. I didn't go for a walk since it was raining this morning, but I'm still happy nonetheless. Regardless of whether you accept this advice or not, if you're feeling a little down, try taking a five-minute walk around your area. It's small, but it could just make a difference in changing your mood for the better.
  • Played a lot of Okami HD today. There were some scary moments and some funny moments. The fact the game was originally released back in 2006 shows how many great games from the past can still hold up today. I wonder why I didn't get this game back when it was first released. On the other hand, I'm glad I didn't. Because of how some moments are scary, even though I'm a young adult, I'd probably get even more scars as a young child than when I played The Legend of Zelda - Twilight Princess.
  • Speaking of The Legend of Zelda, I managed to borrow more manga books from the library yesterday. I haven't started yet, but I'm going to read Twilight Princess (which has two parts), A Link to the Past, and The Minish Cap.
  • I watched some of the Youtubers play F1 2021's story mode for the first chapter at least. I'm excited as to what else it will bring as the story progresses. The writing may come off as meh to some, but it's nice seeing a story mode for racing games in general. They don't happen very often.
  • Cooked some hashbrowns, except this time it's just a regular one. I like the taste, though, I'm probably going to use one egg instead of two since the eggy taste is more present compared to mixing with other ingredients.
  • After a few weeks of not drawing, I got started with a new one! So far, I've only finished the sketching stages, but I'm glad it didn't take me too long to complete that stage. Seems like the TBTWC event did more than just duking out against others online!
 
I'm super elated the Tampa Bay Lightning have won back-to-back Stanley Cups! What an amazing team, it was another stressful yet fun run and I'm so, so glad they managed to run it back in the end!

Yooooo, congrats on your team winning back-to-back cups! My extended family in Florida has got to be having a good night after what happened. Kind of crazy to think there’s another Stanley Cup Finals in the books already as I still remember last year’s, lol.
 
An artist on twitter who I follow made a share your own art if you’re a minority and I posted some of my art there even though I was quite nervous about it and wasn’t sure if beginners were allowed to post and I was really surprised how much feedback and encouragement I got. That really made my day. I wasn’t going to give up drawing any time soon, though seeing how much I still need to learn has been daunting me and honestly I have been having doubts a little.
 
England got through to the Euro finals last night! o_O Admittedly it wasn't the best victory, but it was a victory nonetheless.

And today I successfully took my dog to get his annual booster vaccine from the vets, which is a big relief. I booked him a follow-up vaccine next month too! I'm proud of him, he behaved himself very well from what the vet said (I wasn't allowed to go in with him since they're following social distancing).
 
England won their match last night in the Euros, putting them through to the final in a few days time. I'm not generally a soccer fan, but I do enjoy the big tournaments. (IT'S COMING HOME~!)

I had a really nice chicken balti.

I got a Hue bulb kit and set it up. Voice activated lights, yay! (I'm physically disabled, so that's going to be really helpful I think.)

Right now I can hear an owl hooting away really loudly outside, which I love. Nature = ❤
 
I got some sponge bob blind boxes today, they now live in my car ashtray because I have to use it for something.

I received really cool art from @thetessagrace in Draw the User Above You thread of an OC of mine. Happy to see someone else's take on the character since I'm looking to eventually improve the design. I really like their style; it looks like they could be a character from an anime/manga :D. This thread always makes me so happy to look at and to post in. I hope I can provide better artwork in time. :)

I finally updated my first island journal post to include my fourth resident's profile pic. Hopefully I'll get a journal entry done soon (probably not today since I'm feeling really drained).

I finished the beginner tasks for the summer resort vacation event in pocket camp (thanks so much to three of my active friends). These tasks are usually so daunting and tedious but since I stopped playing for a long time, and now have two good friends to play it with, I have been having much more fun :). I love these fortune cookies and how you can get some of them without paying leaf tickets (sucks though only two per day; gimme more :p).

Counseling was quick today though I think I should have talked more even though my brain wasn't working at the time since I was still waking up. I felt like I didn't have much to talk about since I am feeling significantly better overall.
