Just talking to friends both online and real life has made life a whole lot sweeter. I’ve never felt so involved and appreciated and it’s great that I can spend time with people who I have a lot in common with.

90% of this post is about cars so please feel free to move on lol:
- I played some more Gran Turismo 6 today and discovered some cars I didn't know were in the game! I'm especially happy to see some more classic cars that weren't in the previous entry. Once I have enough in-game money saved up, I'll be sure to take them for a spin! I did, however, win a Plymouth XNR Ghia Roadster as a prize car and appreciated its looks, as well as doing a time trial with it.
- I practiced drawing cars again after a few months of not doing so due to forum events and focusing on other stuff. If you're curious, it was a Fiat Panda. I'm still not that good at drawing in this area, so I focused on cars with simple designs and to not overwhelm myself with complex designs.
I keep making cars look too tall for some reason haha.I'm considering posting car sketches in my art thread. - I also went on a stroll with my dad and sister today. It's even better when the weather is beautiful and not humid! In fact, it suddenly got a little colder when September rolled around. We even got some burgers, fries, and chicken tenders for dinner. It tasted really good! And I also saw some cute dogs throughout the stroll including a corgi, a samoyed, and (probably) a Newfoundland dog.
- Feel free to skip this point. During our stroll, I saw a variety of cars! First was a McLaren 720s. I will admit, though, I did not know what model it was at first, but I took note of the rearview, especially its exhaust placement. Thanks to the look, I was able to figure it out when I got home. Some time later, I spotted a Chevrolet Corvette C8, which so happens to be the latest Corvette model at the time of this post! This next car is one of the two that made me the happiest today. I saw it in the parking lot, but I did not know what it was. Thankfully, the owner of the car was about to leave and asked him what it was. According to him, it's a 1976 Triumph TR6! Wow! I did not expect it to be a Triumph, especially considering where I live! Moments later, a group of people joked around asking if they could get a ride LOL. After that, while waiting for the food outside of a restaurant, I saw a Chevrolet Cobalt SS (I had to look closely what it's name was, but it doesn't hurt to know more!). After picking up the food and driving back home for a few minutes, I saw Mazda Miata 1800 RS (NB), or at least very similar to it in terms of looks. It doesn't help when Gran Turismo literally has at least a dozen variations of Miatas. I'm not even kidding. Here's the second car that also made me the happiest: a Chevrolet Corvette C5 Convertible! Double wow! It's the last Corvette model to have pop-up headlights as far as I know and was also beginning to wonder if I'll ever see it in real life. I can't believe the only ones left I have yet to see are the C1, C2, and C4 models. Lastly, I saw what could be a Porsche 964 Carrera 2 Cabriolet for good meadure. Overall, it's nice to learn more cars I haven't known previously.

-Made some more progress with planning my book, and also played dress-up games came up with some design concepts for a few of my characters!
-Went back into New Horizons today after a bit of a semi-hiatus (I'd only logged into it for the Camp Bell Tree events, eheh) and had a lot of fun! I think taking a little break from it was a good idea—I was feeling inspired and did a little waterscaping around my new museum area, caught up on tasks around my island, bought some new items, caught some new critters, and started collecting some pinecones and acorns!
-And on that note, Jacques has decided to move out! I'm excited to go villager hunting soon.

⬥ I tried the new spicy chicken sandwich thing at Taco Bell, and it was honestly better than expected. The chicken was half the size as the bun, but it was still pretty good.
⬥ I ordered a new pair of shoes. My current ones are kind of worn, and I love the colors of my new ones. My current ones are blue and black. My new shoes are blue and white. I think the white fits my aesthetic better.
⬥ Politoed is so adorable. I love his little dance. I thought it was weird, but in a cute way. Politoed videos are popping up in my YouTube algorithm. You all need to see this cuteness:

It’s Friday and I’ve just had a great trade with @LittleMissPanda and gained another dream villager.

- It's Friday, and I'm so grateful to have a long weekend with Labour Day being next Monday. My team at work could also really use the extra day for rest and relaxation.
- My S/O is driving down to see me tomorrow.
We're planning on getting McDonald's and going to a local park to watch ducks and geese swim around.
- Had another mentoring session with my skip-level manager. He gave me lots of positive feedback, so it's reassuring to hear that I'm doing the right things and doing them correctly.
- Planning on spending some time this weekend to learn my way around Krita so I can slowly but surely get back into digital art.
- Super excited to read Radical Candor by Kim Scott. I've read so many positive reviews about it and have received so many recommendations to read it.

Last night an artist I follow had another share your art thread and she recognized that I’m making progress! It made me so happy and really flattered since she is extremely talented and just started doing commissions for VAs.
At the same time, she later was feeling down and I felt really bad; I feel bad for deleting my message to this post but I was worried it made her feel worse not better. I know it isn’t my fault and she was doing the art share and commenting because she wanted to, but I still feel bad I can’t do anything to help her feel better aside from liking and retweeting her art.
My mom let me order a signed print for an early present. Only 200 copies are being sold! I am so excited since I’ve been wanting a print signed by both of these voice actors for so long. I really loved the style of the last limited print that was announced by one of them not too long ago and have been wondering if I should have passed that up or asked for that as my early present (i’d have bought it if I had money myself). I am so glad I waited considering I love these two guys and their characters that the print is of so much!

I bought a bunch of new music, and am enjoying it! I also finished watching Anohana - The Flower We Saw that Day (it's anime show available on Netflix), it was really good, it's super emotional especially the last episode.
I'm happy about the 3 day weekend. I also got on the treadmill again today, so I'm proud of myself for keeping up my exercise habit.
Oh yeah, and my new jeans came today

I've had a really productive week, including today. My family is happy with me and I'm happy with myself. I no longer feel stuck in the past like I did before. Now I can feel myself getting stronger, day by day.

As always, I'm happy that it's Friday, but I'm also really happy that I finally found a counseling center I feel good about and they take my insurance. I filled out all of the new patient paperwork a few minutes ago and I have my first session next Friday. I'm really hoping to be able to find some better coping methods for dealing with my stress and getting back to a better place in life.

Always nice to see everyone's posts about all the good stuff that happened to them.
It's not much, but I started exercising again and have actually kept at the schedule for like 1-1/2 to 2 weeks. And I don't plan on stopping. Sometimes life can just get hectic and we let things slip through the cracks, but I'm going to do my best at keeping at it.
I also started selling a good bit of the veggies and fruit that I grow on a little produce stand I made and actually made a good bit of pocket money. So that's pretty cool! It might not be this year, but next year I hope to start early and keep going and maybe make enough money to pay for the fertilizer, plants, ect for 2023. That would be really cool.
@Dunquixote That's awesome that one of your favorite artists gave you a compliment like that. I wasn't lying to you when I said I could see the improvements in your art earlier. Good job!
