What Are You Happy About Today?

- Got up early and did well at work. ๐Ÿ“Š

- Cuddled with my kitty some today and gave her her special food. ๐Ÿฑ

- Had a rest day from the gym and martial arts. ๐Ÿ’ค

- The Dallas Mavericks defeated the Toronto Raptors 136-125 in Toronto to snap their losing streak! ๐Ÿ€ ๐Ÿ”ฅ

- Headed to the Stars game tomorrow. :blush: ๐Ÿ’ ๐Ÿ’š
 
- Ended the night playing scopa with my dad, then playing some games over call ๐Ÿ’š
Thatโ€™s so cool! Iโ€™ve always wanted to learn how to play Scopa! I used to have a deck of scopa cards but may have lost them when I moved. Iโ€™ll have to get some more and learn how to play :)

  • I have a few things out for delivery today! Colored pencils, sketching pencils, and a Rubikโ€™s cube! Super excited to get them ๐Ÿ˜ƒ
  • Itโ€™s almost Friday which means itโ€™s almost the weekend and Iโ€™ll be able to spend time with my boyfriend โค๏ธ he might actually have today off work too Iโ€™m not sure Iโ€™ll have to ask him when he wakes up. Sometimes he gets Fridays off sometimes not.
  • Super psyched to play some rounds of yugioh and magic the gathering this weekend!
  • Mocha started playing with toys today! He actually went and got some of the cat toys around my apartment and started randomly playing with them. Iโ€™m so happy, heโ€™s making a lot of progress with getting more comfortable here. I got some videos of him playing โค๏ธ
  • I have today to do whatever I want so Iโ€™ll probably do some cleaning around my apartment and draw with my new sketch pencils and colored pencils ๐Ÿ˜ƒ
  • Slept pretty good last night!
  • Got a dialectical behavioral therapy workbook that Iโ€™m working through and hoping itโ€™s helpful for some of my mental health issues ๐Ÿคž I do see a therapist and psychiatrist regularly too but I like to do things on my own in addition to that to help improve my mental health.

Ooo that's cool!! I've kinda just grown up playing it, but it and briscola are some of my favourite card games ๐Ÿ˜Š
Also it's so good to hear Mocha has been settling well ๐Ÿ’š

- Struggled for most of the day to attempt to do lectures, but I did manage to do one and a bit at least

- Played some more genshin, I did Raiden's second story quest!

- Went out for dinner at the beach with family as a belated celebration for my uncle's birthday ๐ŸŽ‰ I had some calamari which was quite nice, and the weather was just that right mix between a nice breeze and moderately warm โ˜บ๏ธ I had fun chatting with my siblings and playing dumb games together!
 
After work, I was able to have a nice bath and quick shower. Using a bath bomb.
Then, had a nice beef noodles from a chinese shop that also does bubble tea, I've had passionfruit.
Had a lil cat nap, before my mum comes back from work, and quickly fed the cats once I awoke.

I also plan to write some stories (hopefully~!), and play animal crossing, and disney dreamlight.
 
I am beyond happy!

- Received a call today that we're moving forward with my job application with a start date later in March. I'm excited to be going back to post-secondary (though a bit nervous!)

- Burgers for dinner

- Video call with my mom

- Went on a nice walk with Donut

- Started planning/building my new wardrobe (I'm trying to create a minimalist/capsule wardrobe)

- Winners for our Lunar New Year event were posted. I'm glad I was able to be a part of this new event!

- Ordered a couple of new books

Exhausted and off tomorrow so just happy to be able to hide under the duvet for a while.

So grateful for my friends on here who are always there for me. I love and cherish you. Honestly couldnโ€™t have got through the last few years. Tired and emotional and Thank you ๐Ÿ™ ๐ŸŒท๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—
 
โ˜พ I was scheduled overtime at work for this upcoming week because someone is on vacation. I have to close five of the six days, but two of those five are double shifts so I will not come into a mess. I really don't like large gaps between shifts. The double shifts will eliminate this problem as I'm working the entire day.
โ˜พ I recently watched the newest episode of Disventure Camp. This was one of the best episodes to date, and I can't wait for the next one.
โ˜พ I'll keep mentioning this until it officially releases, but I'm ecstatic to try Mountain Dew's Baja Point Break Punch. It says the flavor is releasing in March, but when...?
โ˜พ I treated myself to some Starbucks and got my usual drink. The purchase also rewarded me with enough points for a free handcrafted beverage on my next visit.
 
- I ate some Black Forest cake that tasted yummy.
- Saw the trailer for the upcoming game Pokรฉmon Legends: Z-A which I'm really looking forward to. Btw, I can't believe that X/Y were released over a decade ago, like wow time really flies by. For some reason, those games feel like they were released only five years ago. Like no offense, but if you think that X/Y and ORAS are old games, then you must be very young.
- Worked out at the gym and did some leg exercises and lifted some weights. Didn't lift any heavy barbells though cuz I don't want to be a bodybuilder.
- Went grocery shopping and found some art supplies that my family bought for me.
- Played AC: Wild World and Pinky moved to my town.

Hope everyone had a nice Leap Day.
 
I havenโ€™t had much to be happy about this week, but I want to focus on the few happies that I have had.

I hope youโ€™re all doing well!

๐“‡ข๐“†ธ I ended up with food poisoning out of nowhere on Tuesday (I still have no idea what got me sick hhh), but Iโ€™m slowly but surely starting to feel a bit better! Iโ€™m exhausted, my head still hurts, and Iโ€™m still a little nauseous when I move too fast, but my stomachโ€˜s been settled since late Tuesday at least! Iโ€™m able to keep fluids, food and my meds down, so Iโ€™m hopeful that the worst of it is over! My appetite is also back!! :โ€™) Like the last time I had food poisoning, watching shows from my childhood has been a big comfort LOL !! Bonk has been a big comfort as well ๐Ÿ–ค

๐“‡ข๐“†ธ I was able to get 4 loads of laundry done on Monday, which has been a big stress reliever!! I was planning on trying to do at least 1-2 more later this week, but food poisoning said no

Iโ€™m happy that I was able to get a big chunk of it done, though! It feels good to have so many clean clothes!!

๐“‡ข๐“†ธ I felt well enough to play a little bit of Cozy Grove today! Iโ€™m kinda sad that Iโ€™m on day 27 instead of day 29, but I just felt too sick to play the past couple of days. ๐Ÿ˜… Not much has happened in-game since my last post, but I got an adult Spectral Deer named Thelma, earned 3 new badges, and caught my first mythical fish today!! Iโ€™m a little bummed that I wasnโ€™t able to catch all of the mythical fish/critters in time for March, but at least that gives me a reason to play again next February!!

๐“‡ข๐“†ธ I also felt well enough to have a shower today and do some other self-care things!! It feels really good to be clean โ˜บ๏ธ

๐“‡ข๐“†ธ My birthdayโ€™s in 2 days!!
 
Today was a good productive day. Work went well and was a half day . After work I was able to get some yard work done. Also was able to get my taxes done. The weather was fantastic so we took Aurora to the park for her afternoon walk.

I played New leaf for the first time in awhile . Cleaned up the weeds. Went over to tortimers island. Also played some NH and Harmony had shooting stars tonight. It was a nice relaxing evening. Hope everyone had a great day.
 
โ˜พ I had another good Minecraft session! I took on an Ocean Monument (which mayโ€™ve been my first time doing so?? I canโ€™t remember), and got a few achievements in the process, including the one for following a map from a cartographer! Also came home with as many prismarine blocks as I and my Ender Chest could carry, which Iโ€™m very excited about considering theyโ€™re some of my favorite blocks in the game. ;v; I just need some cherry planks to go with them now... That being said, my storage situation is not ideal, so it finally might be time for me to get some shulker boxes before anything else.

โ˜พ I watched some Youtube with my family this evening, and we got to see GeminiTayโ€™s latest episode of Hermitcraft!

โ˜พ I changed up my aesthetic and Iโ€™m very happy with how it turned out! Yellow-green and bright green generally arenโ€™t my favorites, but Iโ€™m really vibing with them right now hehe

โ˜พ And I had time to start working on a sketch this evening!!
 
Two things, but two BIG things that made this Leap Day quite possibly the best I ever had!

- Obtained Sparkle in Honkai: Star Rail within my first 10 pull (after being guaranteed)! ๐ŸŽฎ

- Went to the Dallas Stars game against the Winnipeg Jets tonight, and the Stars won 4-1!!! We now hold the top spot for the NHL Central Division once again. ๐Ÿ’ ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Seeing the words โ€œOcean Monumentโ€ made me remember how much of a jumpscare it is when youโ€™re passing over one and randomly get Mining Fatigue lmao.
 
- Work wasn't too bad yesterday, even though I had to stay 20 minutes late to help a colleague with closing. It was less busy and I had nice chats with my coworkers

- Got paid ๐Ÿค‘

- I got home and baked a coffee & walnut cake for my mum's birthday, it turned out really tasty and rich <3 my mum and I had a slice of cake each for breakfast today lol

- Happy my mum liked her present. It was a large TRIPP suitcase for our upcoming holiday to Singapore + Malaysia, she wanted a brightly coloured one so its easy to spot at the baggage carousel, so I got one in bright pastel blue

- Found out today that I have a week booked off work from 17th March - 24th March :love:

- Making some plans to go for a hike with my friends next week

- My shift at work tomorrow isn't too bad, I'm only there for 6 hours and I don't have to close for once ๐Ÿ˜‚
