It's like the beginning of my day, but last night I got compost so today I can get my garden beds done today!
I harvested my first mushrooms today!
And yesterday we put together some old beams we weren't using anymore and made a big raised flower bed by the porch to put marigolds in. I guess they keep mosquitoes away? We'll see if it actually works. They'll feed the bees if nothing else.
Started taking Accutane last Saturday and felt the first physical and emotional side effects throughout the week...
Yesterday I decided to challenge myself and go out with four of my friends even though they would be drinking and I can't while taking the pills. When I mentioned that I was on Accutane they all revealed that they took it either during high school or during the pandemic!
A table of five and all of us could share experiences dealing with acne and taking such an intimidating medication to try and fight it. And neither of them regret it which was a relief. They gave me tips and made me feel so normal and not alone, it was sweet.

Oh! Oh! There's something else too... Yesterday at work (I work at a movie theatre) they had a special screening of Black Swan on 35mm and at the end of the day my colleague very shyly told me that she thought one of the actresses in that film looked like me... She was refering to NATALIE PORTMAN. I know she's deranged and unraveling in that role but I still took it as one hell of a compliment lol
- I cleaned a bunch last night, including mopping the house and cleaning my bedroom floor, which always makes me feel good the day after haha
- Submitted an assignment on time! It didn't upload properly the first time I submitted it, but luckily I checked half an hour before it was due in and managed to resubmit. I'm happy I checked!
- Slept through the night really deeply!
- Just overall had a chill Saturday now the semester is over (but I've still got lots of assessments to work on,,)
☾ Feeling considerably better today! Still sick, but less miserably so and I have hopes that I'll be mostly back to normal soon-ish. c: ☾ My family and I watched Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood and Fairy Tail this morning! We also caught up with GoodTimesWithScar's latest Hermitcraft episode later on, as well as docm77's POV of the... incident. I can't wait for the next episodes ahahah ☾ And I was able to defeat Blaine in Pokémon HeartGold and catch Articuno!
- I slept well last night and got to sleep in this morning. I needed the rest badly.
- It was a beautiful day, warm and sunny.
- I got to see some of the neighborhood dogs on our walk.
- I've been enjoying listening to the birds for the past few days. This afternoon I saw a mama bird returning to feed its babies.
- Lots of different wild flowers are blooming and they look so pretty. Tiny purple, white, yellow or blue flowers dotting the yards. Also, the honeysuckle is starting to bloom.
- I got to watch an episode of Made in Abyss and play some games today.
- My husband and I had a date night. We went out to dinner and then saw Guardians of the Galaxy 3.
- I got to wear the new jewelry my husband gave me out for the first time.
- My dog was so happy to see us when we got home. He's been a sweetie today. Right now he's sleeping beside me with his tongue poking out.
- I get to sleep in again tomorrow and I'm planning to have a relaxing day at home.
➣ My backpack is mostly packed and ready to go, with still lots of room to spare. As a self-proclaimed minimalist, my wardrobe consists of like colors and five of the same pair of pants. The six shirts are split between the Kings and Dodgers respectively. They have the same clean design of just the logo and nothing too crazy. Additionally, it allows me to express myself in a subtle way.
Nobody really notices that I wear pretty much the same thing everyday. People are more concerned with what they’re wearing since they spent all morning trying to figure it out, lol. /hj ➣ I’m really vibing with my new eyebrow pen, thankfully. I committed to it before trying it considering I shaved off the arches — my mom told me male eyebrows are straight and closer to the eye. Also, my favorite person likes my (new) eyebrows so I’m satisfied with that. ➣ I’ve received a few compliments on my wallet since using it. It’s very well made for an anime wallet, as to my knowledge those are generally hit or miss.
➣ I am officially done with closing at my first job and now work only daylight hours.
Today I am happy because I get to see my family! We are gonna play Jack Box games! It has been a pretty good vacation! I unfortunately have to return to work tomorrow, but I have today!
I dare say I have laughed more in the last 3-4 days than I have in about 2 years and that's really saying something, I've just been having a blast reading some of my old writings and recording voice-overs for them
(I also mention this bc I can feel the crumbly bits of depression actually shaking off when I have a genuine laugh and it's such a great feeling)
-I pushed through 5 hours of side-work so that I didn't have to go back and had the entirety of Sunday to myself
-I made myself two sausage sandwiches with an egg and a hashbrown. for breakfast
-The seeds for the pumpkins and prickly pears have been doing well and some are sprouting. The planter box sprouts are also doing well and I have been watering them a bit every day.
-I just finished exercising and it always feels good to be active in that way
-I dusted and booted up New Horizon after a very long hiatus and played it for the last few days before bed/work. I even managed to fix this garden oasis that has always been bugging me since it seemed off.
-Some stuff I ordered to fix my truck arrived today. So I will put aside time tomorrow after work to replace the broken stuff.
-I was able to sleep in. I mean my sleeping in is like 6-7am, but when you have a work schedule of 3-4am that is sleeping in lol.
☾ I was able to sleep in my room again last night! I've only been able to sleep upright on the couch since I got sick, and while that was nice for some extra kitty snuggles, I'm very happy to be back in my own bed. ;u; ☾ This week's One Piece episode was great!! My parents and I also got to rewatch another episode of Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, which I always enjoy, and catch a little Youtube later on too. ☾ Earned my sixteenth badge in Pokémon HeartGold and caught Zapdos!! ☾ And I was able to read another chapter in Lover Pretend!
- I slept really well last night and got to sleep in this morning.
- I had a relaxing day at home with no plans except to play games and watch TV.
- I spent some quality time with my husband and my dog.
- My husband was really sweet to me.
- My dog was very good most of the day.
- The weather was mostly warm and sunny. There was a rain shower in the afternoon but I was inside then so it didn't bother me.
- Kind of enjoying the rainy weather today, it looks nicer outside my window with bright green leafy trees
- Last night I applied for a short internship through my university, and will apply to more soon! Proud of myself for trying to gain some relevant work experience and giving myself something useful to do for a bit during summer
I got my other garden bed done today and seeded. Hope it all goes well. It took them forever to get it mixed and filled. Moved slow and took lots of breaks. But they are both done (not all in one day).
All that's left is a huge flower bed upfront to tackle later this week over multiple days.
Last night we tried some of the mushies and they were good (we cooked them cuz gotta be safe).
I took a pic of picked blue oyster. They are a little pale and cracked some but perfectly fine. They'll darken up in the cold fridge. Most of them came from one bucket. My other bucket isn't doing as well or is way slower.
And now I'm gonna chill in the house. We are suppose to get rain or a storm or something later.
I'm also happy that I got these things done safely.
