What Are You Happy About Today?

-Had a fun weekend going out with my brother and his friends to play go. Our luck for shiny was butt (no shiny Dialga for me) but still had fun
-Warmed up a lot so I went out for more exersize today
-Just got done watching a WWE PPV with my dad which was pretty entertaining

Overall, I lot of things didn't go my way the past few days but I'm still positive and feeling pretty satisfied :)
 
I had a really good Minecraft session today! I got a ton of achievements, took on a pillager fort, rescued some allays, defeated a raid, bred a mule, explored a Desert Temple, and found the Dune armor trim smithing template, which is one of my favorite armor trim patterns!! Now I’m looking pretty rad in my amethyst-trimmed netherite armor if I do say so myself, and I’ve just made my first brush so I can check out the suspicious sand in the temple next time I play!

I’ve been steadily working on filling out the character profile on Toyhouse that I started on yesterday! It’s been fun just going through songs and finding nice free-use aesthetic pictures to use, but I’ve also tweaked the coding a veryyyy little bit, which I’m proud of! My coding skills are extremely rudimentary and HTML kind of reads like nonsense to me, so I’m super pleased when I correctly identify what something does and manage to change it to my liking. 🙏

My parents and I watched OrionSounds’ first episode on the SOS Hardcore Minecraft server!! ‘Twas a blast and I’ll definitely be looking forward to the next.

I was late seeing it, but I received some kind encouraging words from a friend 💙
 
I noticed that the snow background on the forum changed to grass. This is probably old news, but I think it looks nice and it's a reminder that winter is over.
I am finally getting some cooking shifts at work next week, so I'm hoping that goes well. It's been a while since I even received an update on this, so I'm happy.
I'm excited about the two new summer flavors of Mountain Dew releasing soon. I'm looking forward to the Baja Point Break Punch flavor.

That milkshake looks absolutely delicious. Banana is one of my favorite artificial flavors, and to have it paired with nutella in a milkshake is tempting. It's a shame I don't live near that place because I would definitely try that. It's a shame banana ice cream isn't very common.
 
  • My state tax return was approved and my funds will be deposited into my account tomorrow. Still waiting on the federal but glad I got this. Gonna use some of it to get new colored pencils and sketching pencils since I don't have either right now. And am probably gonna get some takeout too
  • I have my volunteer shift with the rescue cats today so am looking forward to that!
  • My cats mocha and Mustachio are doing well ❤️
  • Slept good
  • Spent some time today watching a couple more episodes of Black Clover, I'm on episode 83 now I think. Kinda sad because there's only like 102 episodes but it is so good.
  • Spent time studying music theory yesterday
  • Re-watching season 1 and 2 of the Witcher then watching season 3 for the first time after I'm done rewatching the first two seasons
  • Been practicing ukulele and violin everyday :)
 
Been a couple weeks since I’ve posted on here, things have been a bit up and down, but I still have plenty to be grateful for

- My holidays have finally ended as of today, but I’m really grateful that I was able to have a proper holiday, and for my parents who were willing to support me through it. Although I still don’t want to return, I do feel better for it.

- Been playing more genshin, and I finished Sumeru the other day! It was my favourite archon quest so far, been having a lot of fun with it. I also got Xiao, who is now my first five star I successfully have gotten! I was guaranteed him within 15 wishes, but I was still happy!

- Despite my motivation struggles the past couple weeks, I was happy I was able to finish entries for two of the events! I really enjoyed making my room for Flicker and Fortune, but wished I had more time to work on my Dragon colouring in, I was only able to have a couple hours to do it and I really do not like it. But nonetheless I’m happy I was able to participate, and see so many other’s beautiful entries 💚

- As a belated birthday present, my mum got me a whole tub of my favourite icecream!! It’s a local passionfruit one that often goes out of stock, it’s so good and has been especially nice during all this hot weather

- Speaking of, the weather finally has cooled down to less than 35 this week for the first time in a while! It’s been really nice going for walks again

- Went to my first uni class today and met the people I’m working with this semester; they all seemed nice ☺️

- Catching up and reading people’s happies from the past week or so has been nice 😊 sorry for any notification spam
 
Agreeing with the above post. It was so nice outside that I went for a bike ride today.
It also made me realize that I should exercise more. I ran out of energy quickly.

Nobody taught how to me how ride a bike, so a couple years back I went outside and learned on my own. Many falls and accidents later I got the hang of it.

- I have the day off work, but it's because I'm in charge of something super important for work tomorrow. I'm SO fired up for it! 🔥

- I ended up acing this! I'm really happy about it and hopefully it's the first of many important assignments like this. 😁

- Martial arts also went well last night and I was able to polish up some of my techniques. 🥋

- I'm super excited for Texas Rangers opening day as I have tickets, and it's only a month away now! ⚾ 🔥

- I've been continuing to eat healthier and exercising at the gym. 🏋️‍♂️

- Looking forward to the release of Sparkle in Honkai: Star Rail in a couple days. I'm guaranteed and have around 50 pulls saved up! 🎮
 
Had the day off due to elections, and was able to accomplish two things:
  • Gave the inside of my car an extra cleaning as it was nice outside. I keep it way cleaner than the rest of my family's cars as it is, but I'm happiest when it's looking its best.
  • Finished my taxes. I'm getting an actually decent refund this time compared to the past two years.
 
Today was a nice day off. Was able to sleep in and many Aurora snuggles. My allergies are better today . We took Aurora to the park this morning and met some friends there.
Went out to lunch with my mom and got some errands done this afternoon. Went island hopping on Harmony and asked Filbert to move to Harmony.
Was so surprised and happy to find out I won a golden mushroom lamp. So happy that everyone will at least get a dragon token. That was so nice of the staff.
Hope everyone is having a great day.
 
I won a Fly Agaric Mushroom Lamp from the Luck of the Dragon event!!! 😭 That’s another one of my dream collectibles obtained, and just what I needed after a long day out of town. Legitimately what I wanted most from this event aaaa

Also got to catch up on GeminiTay’s most recent Hermitcraft episode with my parents after we got home this evening, and see a few other videos too!
 
  • My state tax refund came in. I got myself a few treats with part of it. Such as: colored pencils, sketching pencils, and a Rubik’s cube. I needed colored pencils and sketching pencils because I don’t have any of either so it will be fun to be able to color in some of my drawings. I just got a basic 36ct set of crayola colored pencils. I know they’re not “the best” but they’re good enough for me for now, I can always get better ones down the road if I stick with drawing for a long time. Also the sketching pencils will help because up till now I’ve just been using basic mechanical pencils. The Rubik’s cube is partly for fidgeting with because I have anxiety and partly to learn how to solve it. My boyfriend is gonna teach me how to solve them. He can solve one in like way under a minute. I don’t even know where to begin with one lol should be a fun challenge though and a good fidget toy.
  • I got some Oreos and Nutella today!
  • Watching more episodes of Black Clover today
  • I feel pretty good today 🙂
 
Some parts of the last week have been a little stressful, so I thought it would be nice to think about some of the things that have made me happy today and recently, and feel gratitude for all the wonderful people and things that enrich my life! ❤️

♥ I'm always happy to talk to my family in the family group chat! I'm looking forward to seeing all my family for my sister's birthday, and I also visited my mum recently, which meant I got to cuddle her cat! 🐈‍⬛

♥ I was very lucky to win a Cyan Heart Glow Wand in the Lunar New Year raffle, and I'm very grateful. I was really happy to see that the staff were kind enough to increase the chance of getting a Dragon Token to 100% for those that didn't win a collectible. I was also really happy to see some people super excited about what they won! 🎉💗

♥ I'm taking a moment just to express how grateful I am for my family and friends, and also extend that to my wonderful TBT family and friends too. ❤️❤️ I'm grateful to know so many special people.

♥ My best friend sent me a picture of their dog being cute today, so that was really sweet! 🥰 I am constantly grateful for them!

♥ There are some sunflowers on my way to work that are in full bloom at the moment, and they brighten my mornings. 🌻

♥ I've been able to play my Switch a little bit recently! I've been playing some Kirby's Return to Dreamland Deluxe, and I was also able to spend time playing ACNH online with my friend, so that was really nice! We got some cute pictures from it!

♥ I'm really grateful to anyone who sent me a Red Envelope or a Valentine's Rose! Thank you to everyone who thought of me. I know I wasn't able to return Red Envelopes to every person, but I sent as many envelopes out as I had the TBT for! 🧧🌹

♥ I'm happy that I was able to participate in all three LNY tasks (the lantern, colouring-in, and ACNH task). All three were a lot of fun to do. 😊

Hope you are all having a wonderful and productive week, and I hope the rest of your week is filled with only positive things. ❤️💗

- I woke up this morning to see that I somehow managed to win a flower wand from the raffle!! I’m so grateful for it, and also the change to give everyone a prize. It’s really cool to see so many people get collectibles they were hoping for 😊
@.: Meri : Congratulations on getting your dream mushroom, I’m so happy for you!! 🎉🎉

- I was able to see my partner today! It was really nice to just chat, laugh and chill together 💚

- Ended the night playing scopa with my dad, then playing some games over call 💚
 
I still need to properly play through Pokémon X at some point, but I’m just super excited that they’re gonna make another Pokémon Legends game!! ;v; I love Legends: Arceus a ton and I was so worried it was going to be a one-off idea they’d never touch again lmao

I got to play a little Minecraft today! I excavated the secret room in the Desert Temple I found, got an Ocean Explorer map from one of my cartographer villagers, and was able to gather up enough Ancient Debris to repair my Netherite chestplate, which was starting to look a little rough.

Also finished filling out the Toyhouse profile I’ve been working on over the past few days!! Lotte has a cute bio now and I’m happy (❀◡ ‿ ◡)

It was an overcast, windy day, which I actually really enjoy! I saw about three leaf whirlwinds and two of them were relatively big too! 🍃 I've always though those were so cool.

My family and I watched Smajor’s version of Minecraft Hide & Seek!! I absolutely loved the army he made of himself lol. We also watched some of the Hermits do naked Ancient City runs, which was hilarious omg

Luck of the Dragon prizes have been sent out, and I spent the rest of my Dragon Tokens/got the last two Night Sky Sceneries I wanted!!
