What Are You Happy About Today?

-After 2 other songs, my director finally decided our 2nd song for our concert. It's a nostalgic bop as well as one of my favorite songs so i'm really happy about that. (+our choreographer gave me candy for doing good which are usually given to the kids in the highest choir so that's a bonus)
-I remembered how to count rhythms, turns out i was just being a dummy when not being able to play songs all that well lol
 
I’m glad that I finished sewing the second set of straps for my niece’s canopy bed curtains. Now two more sets to go….

Also, my sister bought me a frappucino from Starbucks, my nephew was acting super cute today, and I got to play ACNH for a bit.
 
a bit of a late night post since i was busy working on something for school, but today yesterday was a pretty good day! ☺

❁ today was my first day of school! it was a pretty chill day as i only had one class to attend, but it went fairly well and my teacher even dismissed everyone early, which was unexpected but very great! i’m honestly already kind of stressed out about this school year lol, but i’m so ****ing glad that i’m graduating in june and that this is it. i can’t wait to be done. 😭
❁ finally got around to watching the teaser for the first episode of grey’s anatomy’s 18th season! the crossover with station 19 doesn’t interest me all that much, but i’m still excited for grey’s to be back!
❁ found out that i’m pretty close to 100% completing the “angling for perfection!” nm achievement in acnh! i only have 110 fish left to catch, which is super exciting!
❁ obtained one of my dream collectibles today, the yellow violet 😭!! tysm again, @Miharu!! 💛
❁ tidied up my room a bit.
❁ did an animal crossing trade.
❁ made my mom laugh with a joke i told earlier. :’)
❁ read a few new fanfics! i honestly lost count of how many lol, but i enjoyed them nonetheless!
❁ began working on an assignment for school, even though i wasn’t really feeling up to it. i’m proud of myself for getting some of it done, and it’s actually turning out okay so far! plus, i have until 11:59pm on monday to hand it in, so i’m happy that i don’t have to rush to complete it. 😅
❁ talked with my lovely friend @Blink. for a bit on discord! i suck ass at responding on there since i keep forgetting to turn notifs on i’m sorry! 😭, but i always enjoy talking to her. ^_^
❁ my kitty meowed at me a few times. <3
 
I thought I had art block, but it turns out I just needed a new tip for my digital pen. I’m back at it and pleased with my progress. I also slept in ridiculously late and I regret nothing because I’m sure I needed it. I also need to go to Harvy’s and catalog all of my new amiibos. All I need now is to murder a bunch of flies and I’m pretty happy.
 
they're heerreeeeee omg I love them so muchhhh 😭 ✨

I'm honestly amazed they got here at the same time considering the pink one was ordered two days before the blue one. but anyways they both came with little handwritten notes thanking me for my order (the note for the pink one even said "thank you for giving this little guy a new home!" I wanted to cry lol). the blue one is basically brand new, pink one looks like it's been played with but it's clean and doesn't have any tears/stains so that doesn't bother me. I'm so happy to add them to my collection!

tomorrow I'm gonna figure out their new names!! 💕



(also the blue one came with an unused code but I don't think I want to enter it cause I don't play online much anymore, plus the pink one didn't come with a tag. might sell it but idk.)
 
Oof, my draft got deleted and I don't remember what I wrote a couple days ago. XD

Yesterday (Sep 15):
- Obtained a White Cosmos today. Thank you again, @Miharu! 💜
- Looked into writing the National Professional Practice Exam (NPPE) for Professional Engineers. I'm planning on writing it in February 2022 while it will probably still be held online and contain no essay questions.

Today (Sep 16):
- Had a productive day at work.
- @Plume finished a commission I plan on gifting to my older sister who's living overseas. 🥰 I'm so in love with it and I hope my sis is delighted as I am by the art! Thank you so much again!!
 
Some ups and downs over the last few days!

-I didn't get the job I was really hoping for. I am really bummed about it but the employer was super nice and said she would keep my resume on file and contact me if another position opens up. I really hope something does because I would love to work there. 💕

-My eyeshadow palette came today! A day early which is really nice and it's been a lovely pick me up with the job thing. Maybe it wasn't the wisest idea to buy an eyeshadow palette before knowing if I was actually employed but... it's here now. It's absolutely gorgeous! Pink is my favourite colour and this new palette is full of pink with a couple purples too. I only have really one other matte pink eyeshadow which thankfully is different from the ones in this palette! It's super cute and I was able to rearrange the colours in the palette so they're going in a light to dark gradient.

-My girlfriend and I are watching Bly Manor! I watched the whole thing when it released but she's been dragging her feet, lol. Never finished the last two episodes but since we're watching it together this year they'll have no choice but to finish it! We watched the first episode the other night and will be hopefully watching the second tonight.

-I finally made it to the grocery store. I didn't get everything I needed by a long shot but I got a few odds and ends that we definitely needed, so that's good. I got some maple syrup so I'm hoping to make some pancakes soon!!
 
I bought a new striped turtleneck in fall colours today and it brought me serotonin to purchase the item. I also bought a huge haul of groceries and after I put it all away I just stared at the stuff in the pantry and it gave me a great deal of satisfaction. I tell myself this is why I keep going to work, so I can keep buying turtlenecks and groceries and pet food/supplies cause that crap is very expensive.
 
I talked with my primary care doctor today, he wants to see me in person to discuss me getting back on two meds I used to be on, so he set up an appointment for September 30th, I'm glad it's soon and not like months later.

Maintenance is coming tomorrow to fix/change the batteries in my smoke alarm because it keeps randomly going off, which is super annoying, so I'm happy about that.

I ate fairly well/healthy today w/o restricting or bingeing. :)
 
I'm feeling pretty good again today!

- Last night, I made a minor change to my schedule that was recommended by my counselor. I swapped out my screen time right before bed and read a book instead. I don't know if it was just a coincidence because I didn't sleep much the night before, but I slept a bit better last night. I fell asleep sooner and slept a little deeper. I'm hoping that it was due to the changes I made so that my sleep will continue to improve.

- My work day wasn't very stressful. Rather than feeling pressured to do everything at once, I took one thing at a time and didn't feel overwhelmed. It wasn't a super busy day so I don't know if I can keep that up permanently, but I had gotten myself in the mode where I felt it necessary to multi-task everyday and that wasn't healthy for me.

- I'm still in a pretty positive mood which is so rare for me.
 
Not a lot happened, but still a few things that made me happy :):

  • While I didn't leave the house today, the weather was really nice especially with temperatures getting cooler again. A few weeks ago, it felt like being in a sauna.
  • Played Gran Turismo 6 (again) to win races with different cars. Most importantly, I didn't get spun out by a Ferrari this time. Either that or maybe I'm being more aware of my blindspots ever since those incidents lol.
  • I didn't draw today, but I did practice trying to get more comfortable with sketching lines and curves. I've noticed that I've been gripping my Wacom pen a little too much and that relaxing my hand a bit made the line quality a little better with more confidence as well. You can't stop me, curved lines!
  • Seeing other people's posts in this thread. Really nice to see others being happy with various things, both big and small.
 
⬥ These just arrived today! They are even more delicious than I thought they’d be. They are chocolate sticks with banana cream.

⬥ I got another eBay package mailed out. I’m still waiting on the payouts to process, but as a new seller they do take time.
⬥ Work was actually decent. It wasn’t too busy, being that it is a small company with not many employees. It was relatively slow for the whole shift.
