it's been a few days since I posted here, had a few rough days but I'm feeling better now
★ the halloween store is finally open and I found a few things in there that I would like to use for a cosplay! namely hooded robes, one is totally black and the other is purple and has little moon patterns on it. and since I have my own income now and it's a lot better than what I was making in college I can actually buy stuff for my halloween costumes, so yay!
★ a few days ago I started working on making a tail out of yarn. but it's not just any ordinary tail, it's a silver fox tail! I really want to do a cosplay of Sterling and it's unbelievably difficult to find a black fox tail that isn't stiff, isn't inappropriate, and/or isn't an actual fox tail (I know that silver foxes are often hunted for their pelts and it makes me really sad so I don't want that). I gave up and just decided to make my own, using the yarn method. it's going pretty well so far! I have more done than is pictured below, and it's taking forever to put together but I hope I can finish it soon! once it's done I just need to get some fuzzy black ears to wear with it :3
★ a few days ago I finally got my last kacheek plushie, the blue one. so that means I now have a complete collection, with all seven different variations! now I need to give them all names
★ finally found myself an animation software that I may be able to use, I don't know anything abt it yet though so it may be some time before I can actually do a test animation but I'm pretty excited for it!!
★ on the 14th I got a Douglas cocker spaniel plush from Goodwill! she's in fantastic condition and even still has the hang tag. this plushie would cost about $25 if bought directly from the Douglas website so this is def one of the best Goodwill finds yet!
I ended up naming her Tina bc she's wearing a white bandana with that name written on it. I don't believe the plush came with the bandana (couldn't find any online with a bandana) but I think it's a really cute edition!
★ also on the 14th is when I went to get my allergy testing done. luckily only two major things came up on the test: allergy to ragweed, and allergy to guinea pigs (oddly enough). so the doctor recommended that I take an antihistamine and also use Flonase until the ragweed pollen season is over (aka when it starts to get really chilly outside). so I've been taking this combination of allergy medications for a few days, and I can happily say that the number of times I've had sinus pressure and headaches has dramatically decreased! there has only been one time I've had some pressure, and I was outside for a few hours and it was before I started the Flonase. but besides that I'm feeling much better! I'm surprised that I've developed this allergy bc I've never really had issues before, but I'm glad I pinpointed it and I can rest easy now without sinus pain
★ idk when I'll start it but I'm thinking I may try to make a clay model of my Toucat, I would LOVE to have a little figurine of her
★ two things regarding my youtube channel:
1. my latest video (my commentary on Wii Party) has reached over 100 views! for reference, my second most viewed "Absolute Fool" video has about 24 views. so this is a huge deal for me!
2. I plan on recording my gameplay of Luigi's Mansion 3 either tonight or tomorrow morning (prob tomorrow bc I'm really tired lol) so that should be fun!!
(also need to mention that my SO is still amazing and I've been w him for almost 2 months now omggg)
edit: almost forgot to mention, I got a new hoodie today with Spongebob characters on it and I love it!!!
