What Are You Happy About Today?

today was pretty uneventful since i spent most of it listening to music, sleeping and trying to help my fellow poliwags with our 2nd “wildlife spotting” riddle lol, but i still had an okay day! :’)

🎨 got the “bestie” nickname from margie in acnh! as a former bellflower bestie and a current poliwag bestie, i think it’s pretty fitting aha. 😉
🧚🏻‍♀️ had subway for dinner and tried their s’mores cookie; it was pretty tasty!
🌿 managed to tidy up my room a bit.
🌈 bought the dino plush, bee plush and green moon jellyfish collectibles!! i’m so happy to finally add them to my collection, and of course i had to include the plushies in my lineup! @Laudine never disappoints. <3
🎨 watched a movie with my mom! we watched joker and uh,, let’s just say that i’m scarred LOL.
🧚🏻‍♀️ my kitty meowed at me!
 
-The Poliwags solved Wildlife #3! Two down, one to go! Or rather, #1 and #3 down, #2 to go.
-Bit of an odd one, but I had to try a different flavor of mouthwash than the kind I usually get since the grocery store was out, and I think I actually like this one better! The mint kind I'd normally buy kind of, uh... burns?? (I don't... think I'm allergic to it though??) But I'm not having that problem with the cinnamon kind, and I prefer cinnamon to mint anyway, so win-win!
 
Oh dear, here we go again with a late night post lol:
  • My sister made a home-made sticker of one of my OCs! It actually looked really cute and funny due to their pose. I stuck it immediately on my laptop.
  • Went outside for a bit. Feel free to skip this point. First, I saw a Lamborghini, but unfortunately, since its designs are similar to other Lamborghinis like how BMW designs their cars, I can't exactly tell what it is, especially since passing by it so quickly at an intersection. Perhaps it was a Lamborghini Huracan? Speaking of BMWs, I saw a BMW i3 which is an electric car. To be honest, I forgot those things existed lol. Lastly, I spotted a Mercedes 280SL. Seeing cars is one thing, but to see one that's decades old still around and about on the road makes me even happier! After all, buying a car is a huge investment, so you want to make the most of it. And just for the record, the three cars I've mentioned involve having to look them up. I don't mind expanding my knowledge, to be honest since there are still so many that I don't know. :)
  • I'm almost done with the first side of my postcard! Not only that, but I felt like I went out of my comfort zone and confronted my weakness: shading. Ooh boy, I like how it's turning out.
  • Staying on topic of Camp TBT, my cabin FINALLY got around to solving clue #2 after spending days being stumped on it. Finally, I can stop dreaming trying to find the answer... And trying to swat a car away lol
 
today was another pretty uninteresting day besties, but it was still a decent one! ^_^

🎨 my mom was kind enough to pick me up the meds i’ve been needing while she was out, along with some voltage mountain dew (my favourite soda)!
🧚🏻‍♀️ my camp bell tree cabin finally figured out the answer to clue #2 for the “wildlife spotting” activity!! it was a pain in the ass, and i wasn’t much help, but i’m glad that we did it and can focus on other stuff now! also, thank you @pandapples for the hint and @Millysaurusrexjr for figuring it out! 💙
🌿 discovered a new favourite song!
🌈 two of my friends hyped up something that i posted on insta! i was having a bit of a rough night but they definitely helped cheer me up. :’)
 
I finished my drawing this morning. I stayed up till 8ish when I finished it and then went back to sleep. I am not the only one who is happy about it 😋.

Before - while still working on it, my cat kept meowing and walking over my colored pencils and stared at me because she wanted to snuggle. Cropped the drawing out.

Thanks for moving all the colored pencils, mom!

sorry it is upside down

My mom let me sleep in :).

Everyone on the server were so supportive during the whole time I was working on it. ☺️

i had fun watching some anime with some friends on the server last night. 🙂
 
-Made some more progress planning my book today! I'm happy with how things are coming together so far.
-We did need a hint, but The Poliwags solved Wildlife #2!!! I'm just so thrilled and relieved that we managed to get through that—I feel like I can finally rest now hahahaha.
 
Today was a meh day but there are some happy moments
-My cabin got 6000 points! I know it's nothing compared to everyone else, but I'm glad that me and my cabin are trying to catch up, even with several inactive people. Let's go Bees!
-Got to draw again, and this time it's something special for everyone! I won't give it away, but it will feature the cabin mascots!
-Got to go into my new high school, which is really big, but luckily my new principal was very nice and showed me around.
-Got the final mysterious masterpiece correct! I didn't think I was right, but turns out, I was! Now I can afford the prize for my drawing contest, and still have woodland tokens to buy a bee plush for @moo_nieu
 
My day wasn’t super eventful, but the second point made me happier than I can express in this post.

⬩I had some of these churros! I love cinnamon, so I really enjoyed them.

⬩I walked around areas of Vegas and took pictures of some affordable apartments. Some of them had no lease and were month to month. It was nice to get this information for future reference. It’s so much easier to apartment hunt in person.
⬩My Poliwags Cabin solved our second riddle. It was a struggle, but I’m glad we solved it in the end. Although, I wasn’t much help in the riddles portion of the event, it was a fun task!
 
I'm happy that our cabin was able to solve all of the clues. Now I have enough campfire tokens to get @moo_nieu a blue and green jellyfish. I wasn't planning on buying any other camp collectibles for myself or selling any of them, so I'm glad I can use what I have left to help someone else. :)
 
only bad thing is I'm up at almost 2am rip
but anyways I got some good stuff done today:

• made more progress in my New Leaf town, working on paying my house loan and I made a new little chill area with a fountain and some benches for my neighbors to sit. I also re-did some rooms in the house cause they were all messed up, they look way better now.

• I also got around to doing some customization, I've gotten a few golden items and I'm customizing some kiddie furniture too. I'm making a bed with my cat's face on the blanket so I can't wait to see that tomorrow lol.

• I took all my posters down in my old bedroom and started picking up some leftover trash and other stuff. not nearly done w the room yet but I've made progress.

• my team Evergreen finally managed to find all the clues for the Mountain area and I couldn't be more happy. now I've secured my full row of dino plushies thanks to their ingenious thinking. forever evergreen <3

I really need to sleep ugh 😪😪
 
Yesterday:

- The power grid around my area came back between 2-3 AM. I was so relieved that it came back before I had to work and also that the power grid to my company's office was fine.
- Managed to find a deal for getting Jackbox Games on Steam as a cheap bundle and the proceeds went to charity. (Look up Humble Bundle if you're curious.)
- Started planning a virtual games night for my team at work.
- Had a consulting session with a life coach and I will be joining her 6-week, free pilot program for 1-on-1 coaching to work on not being a doormat in life.
- Watched Black Panther with my S/O and our uni friend. Wakanda forever. 💜 🖤
- Started reading The Design of Everyday Things by Don Norman. Fascinating concepts so far, and I'm excited to train my brain to think more like a designer.

Today:

- Summer Homework is a work-in-progress. Rip for having limited brain RAM. 😆
- Planning to work on my Stories in the Shadows entry tonight when it's dark out.
- Working out in a bit and hope to make some progress on the book I started.
