I meant to post last night, but it was getting late oops. Fortunately, the past few days have been great for me! Warning: This post contains a lot of four-wheeled vehicles lol.

- My mother bought banana cue from a street festival over the weekend and I had some! I love the taste.
- I’m a little sad that this year’s Camp TBT has drawn to a close, but I’m happy for my fellow Galaxolotls who still tried their best despite us coming in last place. It’s funny how this is the third time running that I’m in a team whose colour is remotely blue (team Blue’s Clues during 2021 TBTWC and The Poliwags during 2021 Camp TBT). I’ve pretty much got a blue trio now, and it’s given me a drawing idea I should do in the future! Anyways, while I didn’t get to participate as much as I would’ve liked due to work, I’m still happy to get some fun out of it regardless such as the Wishing Star activity (where you accumulate stardust and donate) and the Obscure Observations activity (where you basically write a short story). Good thing I can admire my own Galaxolotl star fragment to always remind me of the times representing an adorable, aquatic, amphibian.
- Work has been a bit kinder to me in the past few days. I had my employer do an evaluation on my performance at work and said I’m doing a great job considering I never had experience in a shop before! It gave me a bit of a positive boost for me that’s for sure. Staying on topic at work, I got to assist someone in replacing the front drive axles on a vehicle! It’s quite a hefty task and a learning experience for me, but I definitely enjoyed it!
- Feel free to skip this point. On two different occasions where I went to test drive a vehicle, I saw a classic Volkswagen Beetle convertible! And on a separate day, I spotted a blobeye Subaru Impreza Sedan WRX STi in the neighborhood. Wow! I never expected it to be parked there, and it’s really cool to see its hood vent in person! I couldn’t believe it and I was extremely happy on the inside. Finally, as I was on my way home from work, I saw a Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG again that passed through an intersection. On a side note, I find it crazy how this car is over a decade old now. It still feels like it’s brand new to me.

- I got a decent amount of sleep and didn’t feel tired for most of the day!
- It was another chill day at work, so I wasn’t really stressed out about having to speed things up to get tasks done sooner. I ended up finishing my shift a bit earlier than usual. Oh, and a 2015 Ford Mustang GT showed up to be serviced, so that was pretty cool getting to hear its engine for a bit! I even got to sit in the driver’s seat for a couple of minutes too lol.
- I treated myself by going to a mall for a little while to look around. In the process, I bought another Hotwheels that caught my eye!
I present to you, a Porsche 911 Carrera RS 2.7! There was a different 911 in store, but I was vibing with this one a lot more. Fun fact: It’s nicknamed the “ducktail” due to its rear wing!
Hmmmmm, I wonder what else motivated me to buy that Porsche in the first place haha.

No joke, buying that Hotwheels made me appreciate driving this car even more. The best part? It's also blue!
- I played Gran Turismo 7 and part of the time was spent driving the said Porsche I just mentioned lol.
- I started a new drawing!
- I had a lengthy chat with @/xSuperMario64x. I feel like we always vibe with each other no matter what topic we talk about whether it’s something serious or something silly. I’m so grateful that he’s a rad friend of mine.
- I have a day off from work which means a day of relaxing!
- I played Tears of the Kingdom and did a lot of adventuring. I managed to complete a couple of sidequests and got a few goodies in the process! One shrine made me laugh for being deceptively straightforward only to have a small puzzle pop up lol.
- Feel free to skip this point. On my way to pick up my mother from work, I spotted two generations of the Chevrolet Corvette: the C2 and the C5, the former in which I haven’t seen in a long while!
- I bought another Hotwheels at a different store!
Oh look, a 2017 Pagani Huayra Roadster!
- I baked some tasty food for dinner!
- I’ve made more progress in my drawing, and it's a significant step too! I'm onto the outlining stages now.
- I bought all the collectibles I want! I'm content with what I have, especially with the moon collectibles. I vibe with the pan colours a lot lol.
