What Are You Happy About Today?

[hakutaku]

- Had a kind of tough day yesterday (it was mostly just my headspace and anxiety) about something at work. But I visited my brother after work, we had some chinese food and that cheered me up

- England won their game against Sweden in the women's euros...somehow! That game was messy af, I turned the tv off after when they were losing 2-0 and then checked again to find out they'd just won on (terrible) penalties

- It's Fridayyy, meeting my mum for lunch today then going grocery shopping after work. Although tbh I don't look forward to weekends that much these days

Nice, way to go! What was the first place you drove to as celebration?

My basement renovations are going smoothly. Even though it's been such a slow on-going project. I'm really excited to see it all come together now!

I actually haven’t driven anywhere since I got it.

I bought Donkey Kong Bananza!
It’s really fun and I’m enjoying it so far. ^o^

- Managed to resolve the issue I was having at work (it wasn't a big deal, I was overreacting), had a great day yesterday!! Met up with my mum for my lunchbreak and got a chicken gyro pita wrap from the market

- Went grocery shopping and bought an interesting cake + my fav curry

- Finally enjoying a day off - slept until 8am today which is quite late for me

It's the weekend, and I wake up to the sound and smell of rain; so lovely. We needed it.
It's my nephews birthday today~ though can't physically celebrate it with him, I hope his day is amazing.
New episode of the summber hikaru died should be on today!
Bell's ashes and white cat urn came home yesterday, plan to get a new shelf, organise my stuff on the wall so we can just have a shelf for our cats~
I am actually in the mood to play animal crossing, I have so many summer bugs to catch. I am also in the mood for writing. I've been thinking of scnerios for spceific fanfics for a while now, and its time to at least write that part down, at least.

I received an invite from Amazon to order a Switch 2 today! It should arrive next weekend.

My favorite South Korean Pop group BTS released a live album and it’s breaking a lot of records.

Someone else is making me happy. Thats a rare thing for me... I am happy

A friend I met in a local LGBT group confessed to me last week and tonight we talked about our feelings more. I had to think about her confession a bit the last several days, but I realized I loved talking to her so much and she made me so happy sometimes that I wanted to cry, so I said I liked her too.

Sometimes I get overwhelmed because I’m not used to someone showing interest in me and not changing their mind quickly. But then we have another amazing text conversation or have a blast playing video games together that I remember she means a lot to me.

She’s direct with me. I don’t feel like I’m walking on eggshells with her like most people and we can talk about nearly anything. She’s a net positive in my life even though I have to give reassurance a lot.

I’m so happy to have her in my life and I hope she’ll be a part of it for a long time.

I took a week off of work and while the vacation didn't go as planned, I've been finding lots of stuff to get into and been having so much fun. And it's been nice to just not have to go to work and relax.

I've played some games I got in Christmas but haven't even opened yet but they're super fun and cute!

Had a few nice outings so far. Went to this homey farm store that sells produce and homemade desserts and picked some up yesterday. Also checked out a very nice pottery store that had lots of pretty ceramics and designs. They were all a bit too expensive for me, but I liked just looking at them!

Haven't had the time to do so yet, but I can't wait to put aside some time to read and draw!

My gardens are really doing well. Some of it isn't because of the weird weather and excessive rain, but it's ok. The planter boxes that I spent more time on with carrots, onions, and turnips are doing well. I harvested the radishes and made a sauteed radish/onion side and it tasted nice!

My basement renovations are coming along nicely!

I decided to buy Pokemon sword, awaiting for it to come in the mail~
Speaking of Pokemon, I always liked trying new different pokemon I never used before, and due to that, made lil organised notes of what pokemon I wanna used in each game I have. Hence why I bought Sword now, as I finally figured out what pokemon I wanna use for that game.
The last notes I gotta make are for the kanto and Johto games~ So its been really nice just to relieve older pokemon games again.

Applied to some other jobs, I also found more jobs I wanna apply for. Glad I took some time off from searching because there does seem to be some thing I can actually apply for that I would like to work for.

Did a bit of writing, but plan for more. Just need to organise my time around my job so I can get more fun stuff done~

Oooooh you'll enjoy it!

I got back into Pokemon with Sword after not playing it since the DS. And I just loved the build up and hype between the story!

I also did some writing lol. It's why I came here to post. I still need to proofread through the full chapter, but I think it's finally finished! I took a really long break from it and it's been a slow project writing this story, but I think I'm finally happy with the direction of this chapter!

@Giddy good luck with the job search

 

[GooseyGuos]

Today I make a Starbucks order in only English! The English girl say it doing much better! She has German second language like I am but English first language is hers. We talk together with German sometime but today I surprise with English for order for all construction site workers. I did much better than ever!

She is so nice and be so beautiful and but I cannot ask her on this a date until I can do it in English maybe I do a surprise this way in a future srsrsrs. Today I am happy for my English skill and for beautiful girl be so impressed with Guos srsrs

I'm happy I don't work in a public facing job. That way I avoid random men making unwanted advances toward me just because I was doing my job. Can't imagine what it's like having to turn someone down while being afraid to lose your job or being retaliated against/stalked.

Women, please stay safe out there!

Got a record player and 3 of my favorite albums as vinyls for my birthday.

- Enjoying a sunny day off! Went for a long jog/walk today in the countryside, then had some good food afterwards I walked around 9,000 steps so I hit my goal! It's good because I've been having an off week this week due to lack of sleep. But I slept okay last night and felt up for a lot of exercise.

- An issue I was dealing with at work FINALLY got resolved on Thursday lol. It wasn't that serious but I'd been anxious about it.

- Generally have a lot to look forward to right now. Got an exciting event I'm really hoping will happen in 2 weeks time, then a trip to Switzerland, then very soon after I'll be doing my biggest trip yet when I spend a month in Asia!!!

- My dad expressed some interest in meeting with me in Japan for a week too, which would be pretty nice. I haven't travelled with him for over a decade now (he doesn't like travelling with other people usually, he's skipped out on all the trips we've invited him on)

The weekend has been pretty nice. On Saturday, went out with my mum just to get out of the house for bit. Went to some charity shops, got a lovely artistic plate and shirt that was £1.
Had some nice lunch, although my mum's was more spicer but came back to play some Pokemon black since I reset it a while ago and trying out different pokemon.

Today, I got the time to go through some of my photos on one SD card, and started deleting them off the SD card, which has actually been fun. Once I get through an SD card, I'll plan to look through what I moved and what it good or not.
Plan to do more after dinner, and hope to get some writing done~!

Oooooh you'll enjoy it!

Thank you~ It should be delievered to me by next week~ I do have Shield but it's been a while since I have been on it so the story isn't clicking just yet. I could definitely play a bit of that as i wait.
So glad there's some good customs for male players though!

I realized I was transgender yesterday, and I feel so much joy for finally knowing who I am. There will be a lot of pushback, and I'm having some struggles coming out to family, but for the first time since I started puberty, I feel alive. Nothing makes me feel more excited than to begin taking estrogen and making in-person connections with other transgender people.
