What Are You Happy About Today?

CAMP IS TOMORROW AAAAAA 🏕️🌌
I finished the route I've been playing in Jack Jeanne today and 😭 oh man over the course of this playthrough I have laughed until my stomach hurt and gone through the emotional wringer and that ending was just *clenches chest* I have lost my ability to function normally
also though this means that I've managed to get SS rank on all the performances on Hard difficulty heyoooo!! 🥳 I'll probably stay on Hard for another route or two though because I struggled a few times... I do not feel ready for Expert yet
My family and I got to watch some Youtube videos and see GoodTimesWithScar's latest Hermitcraft episode!
 
Today I'm happy because:

- I felt a lot better and not nearly as tired today. 😌
- The weather was warm and sunny on our walk. ☀️
- I saw a cute squirrel and one of the groundhogs. It was too far away to be sure, but I think the groundhog was Fiona. 🐿️🦫
- I completed a decent amount of work. 👩‍💻
- Tomorrow is Friday and more importantly the start of Space Camp!!! 🚀

*⁀➷ i’m too tired to form many coherent thoughts right now, but barbie was so, so unbelievably good! it was everything that i wanted and more; it was both ridiculously silly and profoundly beautiful and important at the same time, and i enjoyed every moment of it. i’ll keep my commentary to a minimum so that i don’t spoil anything for anyone, but margot robbie made a fantastic barbie, and i loved getting to see her and emma mackey act together! i was unsure of how ryan gosling would do as ken, but he was honestly one of the highlights of the movie for me, and he brought ken’s goofy golden retriever-like kenergy energy to life remarkably! the soundtrack was fire as well 🩷 the theatre was packed full of people wearing pinks, barbie shirts, and even ken-style hawaiian shirts, and it was so lovely to see! i’ve been stressing about wanting today to be as smooth and perfect as possible after looking forward to today for so long, but i got dolled up the best i could and did my makeup for the first time in over 3 years (all pink ofc!), and i feel much lighter now than i did this morning ☺️ i had such a nice time— even my mom, who’s been complaining about coming to see this with me for months, enjoyed it! this movie is so special to me in ways that i don’t even know how to explain; greta gerwig and the entire cast nailed it 🩷

*⁀➷ okay i promise i’m gonna shut up about barbie after this xhsjcbdj, but the movie theatre employees were so nice?? the lovely lady who gave us our tickets told me i looked beautiful, and the guys who came in to clean up the theatre after made small talk with us about the movie 🥹 the energy in the theatre after was just remarkable, even as we were leaving! it was so good 🩷🩷

*⁀➷ my axolotl hoodies arrived in the mail!! i’m always a little hesitant about ordering clothes online since i won’t know how they’ll fit me or how they’ll look in-person until they get here, but my hoodies thankfully fit me just fine, are perfectly baggy, and are very comfortable! they’re also adorable ^_^ i can’t wait to get to wear them out and about once the weather isn’t so hot!

*⁀➷ miss bonk had an appointment with her groomer today to get her nails trimmed, and as always she was such a good girl! and of course, her groomer couldn’t resist taking and editing a silly photo of her 🤣
her job is beach

*⁀➷ camp tomorrow!!!! i’m so excited to make barbie and camp my only personality traits for the rest of the month 🤭
 
I trained my team a bit last night on the Pokémon Crystal mod. I don’t have many team members but I tend to only play with Pokémon that I like rather than using anything I find. I’m contemplating keeping Growlithe or evolving him into an Arcanine, but I already have a fire stone just in case.
Space camp starts tonight!! I’m so excited to see all of the aesthetics change and dedicate my free time to the event. Camp TBT is my favorite event I participated in and I’m glad it has returned.
I saw my favorite cook today and gave her this one armed hug before I left for my second job. I don’t throw around the favorite word too often so she is special to me in a way, haha. Just not in the way my favorite person is. Speaking of which, I loved seeing her name finally back on the schedule and I’m ready to leap into her arms on Thursday, lol. I love the face pictures but I need her presence now.
One of my coworkers brought her dog in to visit and she’s just the sweetest thing. This dog makes you feel so loved. I couldn’t get a good picture with how hyper she was but she was cuddling all over me. She tries to sit on your lap every chance she gets. I wish I got one with her face, but I’m sure she’ll visit again soon! I spoiled her to death with treats. This is my one major highlight for the day. She is seriously the sweetest puppy ever.

Today I was able to start to finalize plans for my friends and I for some fun events at a theme park in a couple months. I haven't seen them awhile or I don't hang out with them as much as I would like so it'll be nice to see them even if its a couple weeks away.

I got paid today! I don't really have anything in particular that I want to buy but its always nice getting paid :)
 
Today I'm happy because:

- I had a good day at work. I found an issue and we were able to get it resolved before the weekend implementation. 👩‍💻
- The weather was sunny and warm again. I saw a couple of young squirrels playing together in my backyard and Fiona, the groundhog. ☀️🐿️🦫
- My husband and I had a spontaneous date night. We tried out a new Japanese/Korean style BBQ that opened this year. It was delicious! We will be going back! ⛩️
- Space Camp is here! I've been assigned to a crew and I'm reporting for duty! 🚀
 
happy friday and camp bell tree day my galactic friends!! i hope you all have an out of this world weekend! 🥰🌟

*⁀➷ camp bell tree has officially started!!!! 🥳🌌 i’m gonna be honest and say that the leading up to it has been a little bittersweet for me because it’s made me think a lot about how different my life was during the last camp event, but i am still extremely excited, and i can’t wait to see where our second time at camp bell tree will take us! i’m so happy to have some of my dear friends in crew 4 with me, and i’m excited to be in the same crew as other members that i don’t know as well! i made so many new friends during last camp, and i hope to be able to do the same this time as well 💙 the new collectibles are also insane?????? i will not know peace until i have a space whale plush in my clutches, it is so so precious 😭 the new backdrops are also so adorable and well-done!! i’m in awe of everything, i’m so excited!!! i’m looking forward to seeing where my crew gets to explore first, and what our crew colour, name, and flag will be!

*⁀➷ i changed my aesthetic to match the space camp theme! i’m going to miss my iconic blink avatar and my pride sig, but i’m honestly really liking my new aesthetic! i drew my avatar myself, and this is only the second time where i’ve drawn an avatar for myself and actually liked it! i’ll be adding to it as the camp progresses so that it has elements of both this year’s camp and 2021’s, but i’m really pleased with how it is right now! 🩵 i was going to change my lineup as well, but i honestly love my plushies and eggs too much, so looks like they’re coming to space with me! i’ll have to get my plushies some astronaut helmets hehe

*⁀➷ my sweet girl bonk cuddled with me twice today 🥹 it was honestly so calming getting to work on my camp avatar while she laid with me, the feeling of her against my leg and knowing she was with me, safe, asleep, and content was so comforting 🥹 i love her!

*⁀➷ two of the fanfics i’ve been reading were updated, and the new chapters were so, so good! i’ve been looking forward to one of them for a couple of weeks now, and it did not disappoint at all! it was so sweet and beautifully written, i loved it so much!

I’m going to this really fancy theatre on Sunday to see barbie with my bestie.

My friend wanted to dress up too and I just realised everything in my wardrobe is black 😅

I might have to go as a little goth barbie 😂
there were actually a couple of goth barbies in the theatre when i saw the movie last night— they all looked stunning, and i’m sure you will as well! nothing wrong with a barbie in all black 🖤 i hope you enjoy the movie!
 
My mom was having a rough day today, so I offered to make dinner instead and it turned out super well, if I do say so myself!! ;v; I made some mini-pies for the first time and they were so, so good. It took me a couple of hours but it was well worth the effort! I am full of pie and deeply content
We have blasted off into SPAAAAAAACEEEE!!! I am super excited for everything camp has in store for us—I'm excited to see what Crew 4's color and theme will end up being (and the other teams' as well!), I'm already brainstorming ideas for my passport, and I'm working up the courage to join the TBT Discord so I can spectate some gaming sessions later on in the week for my crew!! And the collectibles?? Absolutely incredible, I've added so many to my wishlist already—and the new site background is BEAUTIFUL??? The stars, the moon... please never make me choose between this and the Enchanted Forest site theme. 😭💜
I've almost made it to Opelucid City in Pokémon White!
My family and I got to watch Grian's latest Hermitcraft episode and it was both hilarious and amazing—I never thought I'd get to see epic robot battles and butterfly mechs in vanilla Minecraft, but here we are. 😂
 
I vented to my favorite person about something that happened today. She hasn't replied yet, but she is without WiFi. She's been going to gas stations or other spots often to check on me. I find it very sweet that she's going out of her way to make sure I'm okay and to text me everyday. Her loyalty is unreal.
I'm very excited that Space Camp has started. I already have an idea for that passport task, but I'll need to see if I can execute it on my next day off.
The shift at my second job went a lot better than I expected. It would have been a perfect day if it weren't for the one incident, but it was a nice day either way.


i drew my avatar myself, and this is only the second time where i’ve drawn an avatar for myself and actually liked it!
Wow, you drew that avatar yourself? I swear looking at it from an icon perspective, the Celeste looked like a stock image. I took a closer look and couldn't help but notice the little Poliwag. What a nice added touch there. Your signature is still very colorful, even without the pride flags and all. Nice job on the profile picture!
 
🥖 my first shift at work went really well!!! my co-workers were so kind and helpful – they didn’t just explain everything and make me feel comfortable, they literally went out of their way to gas me up and make me feel hardworking and accomplished. and once i got into a good rhythm, i picked up some confidence. i’m not dreading going back anymore, and i’m excited to see my co-workers again. yay!!

☕️ one woman personally came up to me and told me that she loved the drink i’d made her. a good feeling :’)

🍪 my partner and sister showed up to my first shift to just casually hang out in the café, and even though i was too busy to talk to them much, their presence was cute and appreciated.

💖 my partner, sister, and i went to see barbie yesterday! and we’ve been hanging out a lot together lately since my partner is visiting. we’ve watched tv, gotten several meals out, bought boba… it truly warms my heart to see them bonding.

🥼 yesterday was my friend’s white coat ceremony!! we got to go see her SLAY and then accompanied her to a weird med school party where i had a surprisingly nice conversation from someone i knew from high school ages ago. so many worlds are mixing, man…

🌱 things that i’ve been dreading haven’t been turning out as poorly as i’ve imagined, and standing up for myself has been paying off. i want to make habits of self-confidence and self-advocacy.

🍔 good eats lately… movie theater candy! french toast and cappucino! spicy salmon poké! jasmine milk tea with boba and grass jelly! pizza leftovers! tequila shots and foamy nasty keg beer! that’s life, baby!

🔔🌳🪐 two words. space camp. hype!
 
- Mopped most of the floors in the house last night, which is always good to get over with haha

- Did a 20 min HIIT workout last night, which felt good 💪

- Today I'm feeling refreshed bc I changed my bedsheets and washed my hair. It's even cold enough these days to put my throw blanket back on my bed 😂 I can't believe it's July, it feels like October with this weather
 
Today and yesterday have been pretty great! 😁

- Went above and beyond at work yesterday to finish the week. 📊

- Got paid yesterday and I really needed it. 💸

- Loved on my kitties a lot this week and snapped cute photos of them! 🐱

- Made it to Trailblaze level 67 in Honkai: Star Rail today! Only 3 more levels of endgame to go until I'm maxed! 🎮

Wow, it's been a while since I last posted... Like, over a month... 😭 This post is gonna be way too long if I try to recap everything, so I'll stick with the highlights!

For starters, SCBT has officially begun!! I can't wait to get started on the activities and getting some cute collectibles. 🥺🌌 I can tell this is gonna be a blast! (No pun intended.)

I can finally get screenshots and videos from my Switch!! I couldn't do that for the longest time because I don't have a Facebook or Twitter account to send it to, but I recently discovered the "send to smartphone" feature! I'm really happy about being able to send my screenshots now!!
The very first thing I sent was this, from my Miitopia game. I thought it was funny. XD

And of course, my Resident Representative of AC:NH, Zelda!

I've been playing The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess recently. I managed to finally beat the Lakebed Temple, progress in the story, and get the Master Sword! 🐺

I finished watching all of South Park! This includes all the episodes (around 320), the movie, and the Paramount+ exclusive specials. It took me a few months, but I finally did it!

I've been able to do a decent amount of writing and drawing the past few weeks, and making pieces that I'm proud of! I haven't faced any major art/writer's block as of now, which is good. 🎨📝

I'm just happy to be on summer vacation, and that I've been able to sleep in and relax and engage in my hobbies! ☀️
 
I finished all my homework that was for the final week of my course today so I get to have a week off compared to going straight into a new course. I'm really excited to be able to do some fun things without worrying about assignments.

I'm going to see the Barbie movie tonight, I was happy that I got my tickets early because the showings at my theater are pretty booked solid. I have heard some really good things about it so I can't wait to see it.
