I got to see my boss's little dog at work today. She is so adorable and so sweet♡
This part was yesterday but I forgot to put it here. I had a *bonus* doggie encounter.
Yesterday I went to the restaurant to go eat lunch. As I walk to the entrance, I pass by someone's Golden Retriver sitting by their table. She (I assume the dog is a she, I think the dog had a pink collar on) wagged her tail as I passed by cause I smell interesting to her (I smell like dogs due to work) but I pass by not saying hi or anythin.
As I'm sitting eating my lunch I guess the dog gets loose of whatever was keeping her leash in place. She gets up and slowly walks torwards me. I say hi to her and grab her leash so she doesn't continue to walk away. She was very nice she just sat there and as I petted her, she put her head on my leg, so cute. The owner does quickly realize the dog got loose and came over to get her.
Before anyone says anything, yes I am aware the situation could have gone alot worse, she could have jumped up on me and attacked or jumped to the table to get my food. If the dog didn't seem so calm as she was then my actions would have been different. And yes I know that a dog can appear calm then snap, esp since I've seen crazy/high energy Goldens at work multiple times. But, also, dog pets.

Here are some things I'm happy about today:
- The weather was absolutely perfect in my opinion. It's been rainy and gloomy the past few days and that affects my moods, but today was sunny, just about the perfect temperature (not too hot, not too cold), and there was a soft breeze occasionally.
- I slept better last night. I was very tired and slept deeper than I normally do. I wish I could have stayed asleep longer.
- My mood is generally a bit better today than it has been the past few days.
- I had some frustrating things to deal with at work, but I took a deep breath and tackled them one at a time instead of getting overwhelmed.
- Tomorrow is Friday!

Today has been fairly eventful for me, though a huge wall of text says otherwise so I'll put it in a spoiler:
- I'm finally getting around to drawing Koopadude100's OC for the "Draw the User Above You" thread. I already made some decent progress and am happy that my curved line sketches look a little more relaxed thanks to practicing in this area in the past couple of days. I hope I'll finish it within a couple of days.
- I played Gran Turismo 6 and tuned a Ferrari 288 GTO to the point it had over double its original power lol (originally had 394 HP, was tuned to 879 HP). It was so powerful that it was quite tricky to handle since it wasn't designed to cope with so much power. Because of this, it wanted to spin out at every opportunity, but it felt so satisfying being able to tame the prancing horse while keeping it clean with no incidents. It's actually competent against the more modern cars! Eventually, I tried to figure out its top speed and somehow managed to reach 510 km/h after tweaking around with the settings (albeit with some assistance). Yes, you read that number correctly, and I'm pleasantly surprised it managed to go that fast.
- Today is the first time I picked up my sister and mother from school and work respectively by driving my family's car. It felt a little weird and awesome at the same time since I'm really starting to drive outside of practicing in a parking lot and using my driving instructor's car during driving school. Of course, I was being extremely aware of my surroundings and anticipating the actions of other road users to stay out of trouble. Though, my dad got nervous a couple of times since some of my turns at intersections were a little too wide (I still need to work on that). We even went for a stroll after (note, don't do it during rush hour lol) and thank God that me and my family got home safely without any incidents and damages to the car. Even my sister complimented my driving despite some small hiccups which I appreciate.
- Feel free to skip this point. While I was driving, I saw some cars. Please keep in mind I saw them while either looking far ahead or idling/moving very slowly in traffic. I'm not identifying cars and cause an accident all because I couldn't keep my eyes on the road. With that out of the way, I saw a Volkswagen Sambabus! Unlike in the picture that's been linked, it was painted black all over with a matte finish. I'm sure Harvey would be good friends with whoever drove it lol. After that, I saw what appears to be a Nissan 300ZX (Z32) in a parking lot thanks to its rear lights. Some time later, the Volvo 240 GLT Estate's boxy shape stood out from a sea of cars (not sure if it's the exact model, but it looks really similar to the one I've linked to). Next, I saw what could be a Toyota Celica GT-Four RC. This one had its pop-up headlights open so I initially thought it was an old Mazda Miata lol. Finally, I might've seen a Mercedes SLS AMG parked on the side of the road (which its design was heavily inspired by the 300SL you know and love in MK8)!
- I quickly skimmed through the Nintendo direct after seeing Brewster on the forum banner. Glad to see there's going to be a meaningful update to New Horizons, especially since so many people are asking The Roost to be brought back. On top of the direct, I'm pleasantly surprised that Toby Fox released Chapter 2 of Deltarune for Nintendo Switch so quickly, and for free as well. To be honest, I wouldn't mind paying since he's been working on the game for years now. I'll definitely be playing it tomorrow!
today truthfully wasn’t the best for me emotionally, but it wasn’t all bad and my day is ending on a pretty good note! :’)
❁ saw a skunk looking for food outside my apartment at around 1am this morning!! i don’t see skunks all that often, so it was definitely a very cute and pleasant surprise! i sadly couldn’t get any photos/videos as it was dark, my window was covered in raindrops and i live on the 6th floor lol, but i’m still happy!
❁ went island hopping and invited zell on my 26th ticket in acnh!! i’m not the biggest fan of smug villagers, but zell is quite special to me and i’m very happy to have him on my island! <3
❁ finally began watching s3 of sex education! i wasn’t sure how i was going to feel about this season as the trailer didn’t excite me much, but i’m very much so enjoying it! it’s a weird show, but it’s fun and it makes me laugh aha. i’ll probably watch the rest of it tomorrow!
❁ tried reese’s pretzels for the first time and they’re quite good! they also surprisingly don’t hurt my teeth (yet), which is definitely a plus lol.
❁ i honestly slept through the nintendo direct and have yet to watch it lmao, but i’m so so happy that acnh was mentioned!!!!! i was skeptical, but i’m so excited to see brewster in november and for the animal crossing direct next month!!
❁ tidied up my room a bit and vacuumed the house while my parents were out.
❁ did an animal crossing trade.
❁ cuddled with my kitty a few minutes ago! <3

party!!
This week has been pretty rough for me if I'm being honest, but I'm trying to take things as easy as I can and relax a little until things are sorted out. 
-Slept in a little this morning! I didn't sleep super well over all, but the extra time to snooze was nice.
-Got the character I wanted from a blind box!! Although I'm not sure if I was lucky or if it was actually a box set with all types guaranteed; the wording wasn't super clear, eheh. ^^; In any case though, it was a really nice start to my day!
-Completed the Fall Festival event in Fall Guys!!
-Found a few more of the autumn DIYs I was after in ACNH!
-Still not quite sure what sort of food sensitivity I've developed, but I did find a type of noodle that doesn't seem to trigger it, which I'm super relieved about! I love pasta and definitely don't wanna have to give it up.
-Very excited that Brewster is returning and about the AC Direct in October!!
-And also excited that there's going to be same-gender marriage in Rune Factory 5 after all! I was hopeful it would be patched in eventually, but I wasn't sure how likely that was—I'm glad it's actually happening! XSEED I love you please confirm that there will be dual audio too I'm begging

yeah
Happy that Brewster and the café will be returning to NH. Went for a walk today, played some Pokémon Go and Neko Atsume
Finished my dreaded exam for today and it was surprisingly okay!! Glad to have the weekend (mostly) off, gonna work on a side hustle, do some org stuff, and take some much-needed rest. For the rest of today after I'm done editing a poster, I'm going to play Genshin (FINALLY I'll be able to take Kokomi out for a spin and take lots of pictures of her, haven't gotten the chance to play a lot this week so I'm thrilled hehe) and then watch Squid Game with the boyfriend c:
Yesterday afternoon my friend interviewed me over video chat about my favorite types of books for a work project (she works in a library). It was fun!
In about 45 minutes I'm going downstairs to my apartment complex's community room to call the bingo games, there will be 2 games and I will be calling both of them. I never do anything like this, so it will be really stepping out of my comfort zone which is a good thing. Then I get to go to my self-care group after those
I woke up early and enjoyed an episode of The Haunting of Bly Manor
So it will be a good day!

I've just read that Teen Wolf (the TV show) is coming back with the majority of the cast on board and a part of me welled up because the show was a big part of my life during my mid-twenties. So to say I'm happy about a revival is an understatement right now.
