What Are You Happy About Today?

[CoolJhon Benry Adams]

I don’t have to got to school tomorrow so I can play an unhealthy amount of Stardew Valley and Animal Crossing until 3 AM

 

[Tude]

[.: Meri :.]

☾ My parents and I watched an episode of Haikyu and finished Demon Slayer’s Entertainment District arc!! I’M SO RELIEVED that Uzui and all three of his wives survived fiction’s infamous “retiring soon” curse!! especially with Hinatsuru’s line about the rest retiring even if all four of them didn’t make it, I thought one or more of them were gonna be goners for sure akdhjfjkdgh

☾ I made it to all three Among Us sessions today!! My medicine kicked in during the morning session and I kept nearly dozing off when I was spectating as a ghost, but I’m glad I was able to hang in there through the whole thing! ;v; I had a lot of fun playing in the sessions this weekend aaa

 

[rrenaa]

I’m happy today because I made myself a matcha latte and had some fun playing Among Us with everyone! I also woke up right on time for my grocery delivery and everything was correct, no substitutes! I can’t wait to make the meals that I have saved on instagram

 

[mocha.]

Just finished a First Aid course! Can’t believe I haven’t done one before, it was so helpful and it’s nice to know I have the skills now if I need to use them one day (hopefully not).

 

[bestfriendsally]

i've decided to make a slayers amv of the slayers evolution-r ending ''sunadokai'' (Hourglass) - megumi hayashibara (lina) on lightworks : D

i know there's one on youtube, but i wanted one myself

martina's 'slayers next' image songs can come last, i think :3

 

[Giddy]

I got to play a bit of Disney Dreamlight today, and super happy, my motivation to play has returned. I didn't do too much, I am mainly trying to do all the food recipes and selling things for money because I am so poor XD

 

[Dunquixote]

Yesterday I ended up having a good time at my sister’s; my dad was hard to be around because how weird and rude he was to everyone but he could’ve been worse I guess. I was able to get some of my drawing done there. Near the end of my visit, my sister, her kids and I played a silly boomerang game on the switch; it was really fun playing with them .

Yesterday I was able to finish my entry. I couldn’t think of anything extra to put in the background as I wanted, but I think it ended up working well and I’m really happy how it looks.

I’m glad that I had nowhere to go today since I’m completely zapped. I’m hoping I have nowhere to go for the rest of this week too.

There still is some stuff on my mind that is bothering me a little, but overall I’m doing okay today. Still plenty of time to get better .

I hope everyone had a good day today!

Max ranked Zayne's new event card from Love and Deepspace >< I'm so happy!!! I love him so much.
I hope I can make lots of new friends in this fandom. I already have a few good friends I've met through this game.

My boyfriend sent me money to buy chocolate since I started my time of the month today.. I was really happy about that.. I also got to see him recently, too! He watched me play Class of 09 while he played some sort of capybara game on his phone. :3 I always enjoy myself whenever he comes to visit.. I'm so excited for what he has planned for my birthday next week!!!

My work-wife got me some balloons for Valentine's Day She's so sweet to me. Even though she's about twice my age, I really enjoy her friendship. I love getting to work with her and text her everyday xD I also may have gotten her into Love and Deepspace, too.. nobody is safe from me xDD She seemed very interested in it, and even EXPRESSED that she was interested.. so I really hope I can have someone irl to gush about this game to :3 I love that she doesn't judge me for my interests.

I got some film for my mini-printer the other day :3 And a new clear case for my phone that isn't extremely difficult to get on/off. I put a photocard of Zayne that I printed, in the back of my case! He's so cute and handsome < 3 I'm thinking of printing more photocards to send to my friends who love the game too ^_^

I recently commissioned a close friend to draw me and Zayne! I'm really really looking forward to the result ^^

I had a decently productive last day off work. I woke-up at 5:30am full of beans. By 6:45am I had already started work on cleaning my 280 litre axolotl tank.

I made 16 burritos to freeze, did a deep clean of the downstairs, caught up on obligations for two of my volunteer roles (in addition to my work on TBT I lead a team of 33 people in another setting), then got some relaxing time in with my boys.

Delta being adorable:

[.: Meri :.]

☾ Watched a lot of Youtube over the past couple of days! Caught up with some recent Markiplier videos with my mom, saw a bunch of shorts on my own, and also caught a couple more of LDShadowLady’s Empires S1 series with both of my parents!

☾ I felt up to playing Pokémon Omega Ruby for a bit this evening, and made it up to the Fortree City Gym! My cat Rat slept in my lap pretty much the whole time too ;w;

☾ Also I’m still super happy about the automatic toy we got for the kitties recently!! It’s been super difficult to get our older kitty, Boo, to play hardly at all for the past few years, and when she does play it’s usually just for like… a few seconds tops, but she loves the butterfly!! She goes absolutely wild over it!! It's been absolute ages since I've seen her so playful.

☾ Dogpy got here safely today!!

Goodness gracious, this took me a lot of time to type all of this out! Last week has been pretty eventful, but a really good one. I'm sad that it's over, but I'm very happy that I got to spend time with @xSuperMario64x (Bug) and made lots of good memories together during his visit here to Canada. I may have missed out on the majority of the Valentine's event, but being with someone in person who I love so dearly is much more important to me.

February 10, 2025

• My Amorous Aura backdrop got updated with pan flag colours!
• We went to Jollibee and ate spaghetti, chicken sandwich, and fries! We haven't had them in quite a long while, so we took our time savouring the food and enjoying our time together.
• We went to a huge aquarium that had lots of interesting fish. I'm sure @/Xara would love to hear this as we saw a couple of real axolotls!

Spoiler: Dr. Shrunk, except in real life

There was also an axolotl plushie that gave me galaxolotl vibes from the 2023 Space Camp TBT event. Sadly, there were no space whales to be found as I'm sure @/S.J. would absolutely love that!

February 11, 2025

• Feel free to skip this point. Good news! While we were on the highway to go somewhere, I finally spotted a Porsche 911 Turbo S (992) for the first time ever which makes it car #256 in my identified cars list! Bug basically saw me get hyped up seeing a car I recognize lol. It zoomed right past us, so I only got to see what it looked like from the rear.
• I cooked Beefsteak and had fresh raw red onions on the side so Bug and I had something to eat for lunch. I'm glad to hear he really liked it since I've been sharing a little bit more of my culture with him.
  
• We watched some episodes of The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3! We also ate Pandesal with Nutella at the same time hehehe.
• We looked around in the mall for quite some time and also took pictures. Bug ended up buying a scarf that says 'Canada' on it hehehe.
• We went to Swiss Chalet for dinner to eat chicken and some poutine!

February 12, 2025

• We didn't do much on this day, but we got to chill and watched the Super Mario Bros. Movie again almost a couple of years after its initial release in theatres!
• I cooked spaghetti and Bug tried it for lunch. He liked it!
• We got to see each other's drawings for a bit. Not only that, but the numerous layers that were used to bring the drawings together. I personally find it fascinating seeing the different stages and details broken down.

February 13, 2025
Sadly, the poor weather conditions made it a bit dangerous to go somewhere, so we've had to spend some time apart from each other for this day. There are a handful of things to be happy about, though.

• I played a bit of Gran Turismo 7 and tackled the weekly online time trials. It took me a lot more attempts than anticipated to try and get gold!
• My mother brought home some pizza for lunch! We also had some fries that I heated up in the air fryer.
• I completed my SWEET HEART lineup! I already mentioned it when I made my final submission, but I'd like to thank @/OswinOswald, @/.: Meri :., @/nightglow, @/Dunquixote, @/skarmoury, @/themysterybidder, @/lasagne_of_death, and @/MrBox for their kindness.

February 14, 2025

• Feel free to skip this absolutely MASSIVE point. This day marked the start of the Canadian International Auto Show! Ever since the dates were announced last year, Bug and I were waiting for a long time for this day to arrive! We attended and ended up spotting fewer unique cars compared to last year, but I'd argue that the kinds of cars we saw this year definitely made up for it. There were a couple of them that almost made me shed a tear. In fact, those who have played Mario Kart 8 may recognize one car on here. I'll put all of them in a spoiler for those who are curious enough to see. Be warned: there will be a huge pile of photos! TL;DR: I witnessed seven unique cars to add to my list bumping up the all-time count to #263!

Spoiler: Cars I've already spotted before

Spoiler: Toyota GR Corolla

I'm glad to see the GR Corolla show up, even though its hood is open and that the front grille looks a little different compared to the game.

Debuted in: Gran Turismo 7

Wide rear fenders!

Of course, how could I forget the distinct appearance of its exhaust pipes?

Spoiler: Maserati MC20

I have a feeling that this is the exact same MC20 I saw last year...

Debuted in: Gran Turismo 7

Spoiler: Lamborghini Urus

Of course, this absolute unit decides to show up lol.

Debuted in: Gran Turismo 7

Spoiler: Porsche Carrera GT

This is the third time I spotted a Carrera GT in person. However, it's my first time seeing it in white!

Debuted in: Gran Turismo 7

Spoiler: Ferrari F40

Well would you look at that, an F40 decided to show up at the auto show again this year.

Debuted in: Gran Turismo 5 Prologue

Yes, I painted it pink. I'm embracing myself for a cease and desist order from Ferrari lol.

Spoiler: Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren

I may or may not be getting flashbacks. Don't ask lol.

Debuted in: Gran Turismo 4

Spoiler: Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG

It's not the exact same car, but here's a fun fact: The SLS AMG appears on the box cover of Gran Turismo 5!

Debuted in: Gran Turismo 5

Spoiler: Lotus Elise 111R

This is the best angle I could get. I haven't spotted this elusive Lotus since 2023, so it's a pleasant surprise! Sadly, the Elise 111R has been missing in action from the series after the 6th game (and the entire Lotus brand).

Debuted in: Gran Turismo 4

Spoiler: Cars I've spotted for the first time ever

Spoiler: Hyundai IONIQ 5 N!

If you saw my previous post, this is the car that I've shown as a sneak peek. I genuinely gasped as I didn't expect to see the IONIQ 5 N so soon! It's more amusing by the fact that it was added to Gran Turismo 7 literally last month AND that there's an online time trial featuring this car at the time of writing, so the timing was great. One thing I should mention is that it has the option to use fake engine sounds and simulated gear shifts since this car is an EV.

Here are some more comparisons between real life and in-game starting with the wheel!

The rear view.

The N badge on the side of the car.

I got to sit inside and take a picture of the steering wheel!

A screenshot of achieving the gold target with the IONIQ 5 N!

Spoiler: Toyota Celica GT-Four (ST205)!!!!!

This Celica for me is the car that gave me the most amount of happiness in the auto show as it was totally unexpected and located at the corner, making it easy for many people to miss out! Bug and I were taking a good look at it for quite a while. Eventually, a guy who owns this Celica came up to us and opened the door to let us sit in the driver seat! I was surprised at first as I didn't want to mess anything up, but the guy assured us that it was okay to look around and take a few pictures. After all, he drives the Celica from time to time. I then went on to chat with him further about other stuff and how his search in finally acquiring one after 15 years was quite interesting. As for the livery you see here? I pointed out that the flow of lines look similar like the Castrol livery of its rally variant and the guy proceeded to fist bump me for catching that subtle detail (and apparently, I was one of the three people so far who noticed that lol). What an awesome guy to talk to. Not enough words can describe how happy I am to see this legend!

Debuted in: Gran Turismo (1)
(#258)

Here are some more comparison pics!

The "Celica" badge.

The "GT-FOUR" badge.

The side of the rear wing.

And finally, the dashboard! I'll say this again that the guy who owns this Celica is awesome.

Spoiler: Lexus LFA!!!

It's yet another car that I gasped upon seeing it. It's actually the Nürburgring edition of the LFA and while it doesn't exist in the game, there are custom parts to replicate it! Oh, did I mention that it's one of the best sounding cars ever? It's too bad that they won't start it up for a bit since the auto show takes place indoors. Yes, I'm aware that the one I have in the game is pink and I'm not ashamed to drive it lol.

Debuted in: Gran Turismo 5
(#259)

Spoiler: Ferrari F50!

It's the successor to the F40! Smoother and less boxy all around compared to its predecessor, but did Ferrari have to shape the rear view mirror so weird?

Debuted in: Gran Turismo Sport
(#260)

Spoiler: 1886 Benz Patent-Motorwagen!!

Yes, you read that year right. And yes, it only has three wheels lol. It's actually a replica, but the Patent-Motorwagen is regarded as the first ever automobile in history, forever changing the way we travel to places. This car is almost 140 years old at the time of making this post! Bug and I both like to call it the park bench lol.

Believe it or not, the Patent-Motorwagen made it's one and only appearance in Gran Turismo 4 that can be driven in the game! However, it only tops out at just under 20 km/h and struggles to climb even the slightest of elevation changes due to having only 0.75 horsepower.
Debuted in: Gran Turismo 4
(#261)

Spoiler: Mercedes-Benz 300SL Roadster!

This is one of the three cars from Mercedes-Benz that can be driven in Mario Kart 8!

I'm very glad to finally see one in real life considering a lot of us on here have driven it at least once from Mario Kart of all places. Do you believe me now lol.
Appears in: Mario Kart 8
(#262)

Spoiler: Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series!

This was the last car in the show that Bug and I got to see. What a great way to end on a high note! To slip in a quick fact, the GT Black Series has been occasionally used as a safety car in Formula 1 since 2022!

Debuted in: Gran Turismo 7
(#263)

February 15, 2025

• My mother and sister got to meet Bug again after almost a year! We all went to Ikea and looked at some furniture for quite a while. Of course, the highlight for me was that we got to eat lunch there which tasted delicious as per usual lol. I ate Swedish meatballs with mashed potatoes, green peas, lingonberry jam, and fries!
• My mother bought us Taho!
• We went to the library and did some traditional drawing together. I drew his two anthro OCs Lumew and Solmew.

February 16, 2025
This day is quite bittersweet as this would be the final day I got to see Bug again before he went back home the next day. We made the most of it, thankfully.

• We went to a mall to look around for a little while. We eventually went to Popeyes and ate fries, chicken sandwich, fried pickles, and biscuits!
• Brought Leche Flan that my mother made for Bug and I. The flavour is a success!
• We watched a couple of episodes from The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3.
• We both did some drawing for a little while. I managed to finish mine even though it wasn't as great considering I haven't been doing it traditionally in quite a long time.
• Bug made me a ton of Buckeyes! I always look forward to eating them as they never disappoint me! Even my sister really liked them hehehe.

Spoiler: The presentation isn't amazing oops

This is what happens when you have to cram a lot of Buckeyes into a single container and bringing it home lol.

• I managed to play a session of Among Us with lots of TBTers! It was hide and seek mode and it felt so intense every time when the imposter quickly found their victims to slay one after the other.

Spoiler: Oh goodness me

I'm not used to seeing this many bodies in a single room lol

Mira HQ isn't exactly a great map for the crewmates rip.

Almost a full house! You love to see it.

And that wraps up the huge post mostly talking about the time I spent with Bug. It's a bit funny to me because around this time back in 2023, I started developing feelings towards him, but initially pushed it away before finally embracing it a few months later. After his third time of visiting me in person, I feel my love only grew stronger and stronger towards him. I'm so grateful to have Bug in my life.

I'll recap the other days some other time. I won't be surprised if I look back at this after I post and find an error lol.
