What Are You Happy About Today?

I got this cute little biscotti keychain in the mail and I love it so much every time I see it. It makes me so happy

It's really hard to find something to be happy about right now to be honest. It's really really hard for me right now at work and school. A lot of people are demanding a lot of me and I'm left with barely enough time to do what I need to do to do my best on my upcoming law school entrance exams, which are a huge deal for me. They are the sole decider of whether I will go to law school next Fall or whether I need to wait a whole year to take the test again so that I can get into my ideal schools.

But my therapist and I talked about everything this week and she told me that after I get through these next few really hard weeks, we're going to work on my ability to say no to people. And I'm going to get my life on track. So I'm really happy because of what the future holds for me. I'm really happy that I'm so close to being in a place in my life where I can get rid of all of the stress that's eating away at me.

I'm also happy that it's starting to get colder outside. I really like the cold weather, it's nice.
 
I’m happy because I purchased an OLED Switch and it’s beautiful. I got the white one. At first I was really worried that I’d lost my Animal Crossing island (I didn’t know it was a separate migration process from the user data transfer) and the 1500+ hours I’ve poured into it. But I called Nintendo and they sorted it out from a backup. Pls remember to to back up your island regularly 💜
 
I spent some time outside again just before dark and watched the stars come out! The sky was still light enough that I got to see some cute little bats flying around too. ;v;
Played more ACNH and HHP! I finally got a nice Kapp'n island too—it was the summer one and I was able to collect some butterflies that I want models of! I had a lot of fun designing more homes too. c:
Got to chill out with some more of my favorite livestreamers in the background today!
 
- the stars have aligned for me today. I thought I had failed my English and maths exams for uni but it turns out the uni had made mistakes in both of those tests, which means I passed!! I am so relieved and thankful, I was dreading taking that maths one again lmfao

- I also went to the gym early this morning - I still don’t enjoy workouts (does anyone?? Genuine question) but it starts my day off nicely and helps me feel more motivated for the rest of the day

- my cookbook arrived - it’s an old book from the early 80s with over 1000+ recipes. Imagine something your grandma would give you as a hand-me-down. That’s the kinda book it is. Some of the recipes in this book are life savers so I’m really excited to use them!

- sorted my file out for my nursery placement next week!
 
I managed to get a partial refund for the nights I didn’t stay at an AirBNB. It’s definitely better than no refund.
A few packages are waiting for me at my dad’s house. I really need some of the things in those packages.
This train is super comfortable and there’s so much leg room. I am definitely taking the train next time, no exceptions.
I brought a Mango Dragonfruit Refresher from Starbucks on board with me and TSA isn’t here to make me throw it away.
The LA Kings play tonight and hopefully we win. 🤞🏻
 
haven’t posted in a few days again as i’ve been busy, but the past few days have been okay for the most part!

began playing acnh again after taking a grief-related hiatus.
went out for a late dinner with my mom, and we went for a long drive afterwards! we didn’t get home until about 3am, so i was exhausted, but it was still a nice time! we also saw a few dogs and a wild rabbit on our journey, which was nice as well!. :’)

did some much-needed self-care.
finally got to experience and start playing the acnh update + DLC! it’s so much fun omg — i’m having a blast with it! 🥳

i’m still having a lot of fun with the acnh update + dlc!! i’ve learnt a bunch of new diys, added some new stuff to my catalog, invited frett to my campsite, etc! i’m also very close to being caught up to present time, which i’m happy about as well!
tidied up my room a bit.
finally found a version of a song that i’ve been looking for forever!
 
  • I started playing Rune Factory 4 on my Nintendo Switch. I've never played any of the Rune Factory games before but I'm really enjoying it a lot! :) That's really the main good thing about today, because otherwise my day was filled with severe anxiety, panic attacks, and other mental health symptoms, so it wasn't a good day, hoping tomorrow is better, but ending the day w/ Rune Factory was good and relaxing
 
The Dallas Mavericks won again and I got to go to martial arts tonight! I’m also having a lot of fun playing a Pokemon Shield playthrough using only Cosmog, Jirachi, and Genesect. Something to tide me over until BD/SP release. Also getting better sleep. :D
 
Had severe anxiety about something a few hours ago and have been depressed since then, but am okay for the most part.

My calico was playing with my twenty one year old cat’s tail today and jumped at her a couple times; my older cat did not react at all. I thought it was so cute ☺️.

Had fun playing mario party with some friends.

Still am enjoying playing the ac update and HHP.

I got a trade for two amiibo cards from series 5 that ai really wanted and now, I just need three of the villagers and the rest of the npcs (once my trades all go through that is). :)
 
We went to visit my aunt to celebrate her birthday today! She was thrilled with her presents, we played some Animal Crossing, and I got to spend a lot of quality time with her kitties who I haven't seen in ages! ;v; Also saw a very pretty white mule on the way there!
Got some new official art of one of my faves! 💜
