What Are You Happy About Today?

- I had a good day at work.
- Looking into a remote part-time financial job while still looking into real estate schools.
- Xenoblade Chronicles 3 was announced! I’m SO stoked!
- I’m off work tomorrow.
- Going to have a hangout with a friend tomorrow.
- The Dallas Stars beat the Nashville Predators 4-3 tonight. 😎
 
already psoted here once today but I gotta post again bc my dad came home with the wacom tablet that my brother gave to me!! it's almost 11pm here so I'm not gonna take it out right now but I'm definitely gonna get it out and set it up tomorrow!

also about a month ago I made a thread in the Museum board asking for drawing program recommendations and pretty much everyone recommended Clip Studio Paint, well luckily this Wacom tablet comes with a free copy of CSP Pro so that's great!! can't wait to start using this for digital art! :D

Oh nice! I also use that Wacom tablet except I don't have it in pistachio colour lol. Just be sure to stock up on some extra nibs. There should be at least three inside the pen itself by unscrewing the bottom but buy more anyway. It feels like the nibs wear down a little too quickly.

A late post from me tonight:
  • I played GT Sport and completed quite a lot of race events. I'm hoping to finish all of the single-player content before Gran Turismo 7 comes out! I also heard the news that I'll be able to transfer my custom liveries there as well, so thank goodness for that because it's time-consuming putting everything together.
  • Made more stuff in Inkscape. It's coming together nicely. :)
  • I've been coming up with a few ideas for the Valentine's Day event and I think it'll be a good one.
 
I am off from work today and maybe tmi, but I’m happy that I was off for two of the days during my period cycle. (which is only three to four days anyway, so…)
I watched the new episode of Catfish about an hour ago.
I’m going to the store soon to pick up some more Fiji water!!
 
so todays interview ended up just being them giving me more information on the role, but i have a hiring interview tomorrow and im so excited! i really want this job and all of the great benefits🙏 for now im feeling very hopeful c: ahhh im so excited at the thought of future stability ;-;
 
  • I've been watching Pokémon on the Nintendo Switch Pokémon TV app thing, enjoying it a lot!
  • I'm about to eat some buttery Pillsbury grands biscuits, they're so delicious!
  • I have a package that's supposed to come today
  • I made plans to hang out with a friend on Saturday and on Sunday my sister is coming over for a bit
  • Going to spend a couple hours playing Legends Arceus tonight
 
  • Just a chill calm day which is always nice, was able to meal prep for work over the weekend
  • Finally bit the bullet and ordered about half my list for baby things, so that's nice to get things out of the way and most the practical things...so for the second half I'll have most the fun items to look forward to
  • Now to just watch some shows and play more pokemon, woo!
 
i got to play around with my Wacom tablet and Clip Studio Paint a bit earlier and omg?? it's so nice??? I haven't figured out everything that the application offers yet, but right off the bat I love the resistance on the stylus, it feels like I'm actually drawing with a pencil! I tried out a few of the pen/chalk types and I especially love the charcoal and chalk pens, those are my favorite traditional mediums and they translate pretty well to CSP so I'm sure I'll be using them a lot!!
 
Things are settling down for me with life and so I have a lot of stuff I put on the backburner that I am really looking forward to getting into again! Really want to boot up New Horizon more and start decorating my town now that a lot of the old furniture that I liked is now back.
 
Today I'm happy because:

- The weather was sunny and it's getting warmer.
- I finished all the work I set out to do today.
- Right now, we don't have an implementation planned for next week either so that's more time to get other things done.
- I looked into getting my mom Section 8 Housing and it seems like she may qualify. I'll be checking into it more soon, but she really needs some help because she's struggling now and her rent is going up by $80 this summer.
- I got my Valentine submission done last night so now I don't have to worry about it anymore. I can purchase my feather and raffle tickets anytime, but I'm thinking I'll buy the feather on Valentine's Day just because.
- My back felt a lot better today after my massage yesterday.
- I'm off work tomorrow and all weekend. Hurray for another long weekend!
 
I've spent the past week reading on my light novels, managing to read about 12 books so far, so that made me happy and I'm in the process of getting through the next book I'm reading now.

I managed to complete Watch Dogs Legion's dlc that I had spent a while on and enjoyed it all. I'm planning to replay it overtime from the beginning, so I hope that goes well.
 
- @Foreverfox The Mavs won their fourth game in a row, defeating the Los Angeles Clippers 112-105. Luka Doncic dropped a career-high 51 points!! 🔥 🏀
- I had a really chill day at home today and got to spend some time with my friends and family. I wish every day was like this.
- I played a LOT of Genshin Impact. I finished the Lantern Rite event, leveled up Ganyu to 80, and even got a Qiqi con on the permanent banner off of only 1 pity!
- The kitties were sweet today and I gave both Maybellene and Lulu lots of love. :giggle:
 
i’m getting so bad at posting again lmao, but the past couple of days have been pretty good! ^^

wednesday (02/09)
cuddled with my kitten. 🖤
did some self-care.
completed 2 assignments for school.
tidied up my room.

today/yesterday (02/10)
unexpectedly discovered a new favourite song! i rarely discover new music that i like nowadays (probably since i mainly stick to songs i know instead of listening to and trying out new ones lol), so it was a very pleasant surprise and the highlight of my day!
cuddled with my kitten, who was extra sweet and affectionate with me today. i love her so much. 🥺🖤
completed 2 assignments for school.
did some self-care.
discovered and watched some cool stuff on youtube and tiktok, and watched a tiktok that made me laugh.
i finally came up with an idea for my valentine’s day tbt event entry; hopefully i’ll be able to get started on it over the weekend!
 
Had a rather silly interaction with a friendly bean in Fall Guys! It was just me and them in the final, and we stood at the end of the level just emoting and playing around for ages. 😄
I finished reading another book! I had a hard time putting it down yesterday, so I'm glad I had the chance to pick it back up today. It's (more-or-less) the end of an arc, so I think I might slow down a bit and give my mom a chance to catch up with where I'm at.
I managed to get all the winter campsite villager exclusive items I was missing in New Leaf! I had to play the campsite games with Chief for what felt like forever to get them, but I'm glad to have them now! c:
And I *finally* pre-ordered my copy of Rune Factory 5!! Super hyped even though I still haven't finished Arc 3 in RF4S
 
  • I finished two!! paintings today
  • I ate another Cadbury chocolate egg
  • I made omurice and it came out so well, adding extra soysauce to the egg mixture really adds something!
  • I'm still riding on the high from my adorable Blink signature, LOOK AT IT
 
  • My apartment complex is having a grab and go Valentine's dinner thing this afternoon, so I'm going to go downstairs later and get my takeout container of whatever food they're having
  • I took a hilarious picture of my cat playing last night, her tongue is up to her nose (pictured below) 😂
  • I have a 1lb Reese's heart, I can't wait to have some of it!
  • Going to have a cappuccino later
