system shock mentioned!!!!!!
i genuinely haven't heard any news about it in ages. a pleasant surprise
 
Happy Pride Month everyone!! 🥳🎉🌈

My parents and I watched the latest One Piece episode and another episode of Haikyu!! I’m also glad to end the weekend on the volleyball anime, since it’s... much lighter than the other shows we’re watching ahaha, but that said omg I’m so invested in these volleyball matches and this episode put me THROUGH IT oof. it ended on a good note though so I'm hyped for next week!!

Realizing it’s already June 1st also kicked me into gear re: ArtFight LOL, and I made a lot of progress on my ArtFight prep today!! Mainly just been uploading a lot of characters who were honestly ready to go, but that I’d been holding back on because I was being a perfectionist about it ahahaha ;v;

Watched Skizzleman’s new Guess the Build video!! these videos are so funny I stg
 
I have quite a few things to be happy about today!
  • The weather was nice and sunny!
  • I felt really happy about something at work today about an issue since yesterday. I fixed it along with some assistance and finally got it resolved! 😄 It was also a good thing building up more experience as a result.
  • Feel free to skip this point. I spotted an Acura 3.2 CL Type S again which is the same one I saw last year back in October! This next car doesn't appear in the Gran Turismo series, but I think it warrants being added to identified cars list for being interesting now bumping up the count to #268. A Porsche 928 was parked on the side of the road and while it may not look like it, this interesting car has pop-up headlights! 🤩 I knew this because I saw it the second time with its lights on lol.
  • Continuation of the previous point. Feel free to skip as well. There is one car that I spotted, however, that does appear in the Gran Turismo series. I present to you a Mercedes-Benz SL 500 (R129)! It may not be particularly eye-catching, but it still gives me some happiness knowing that it bumped up the count to being the 269th car!
  • My mom cooked Salmon Cakes for dinner! Sided with tartar sauce and jasmine rice because it's a requirement for me to be full, it's quite a tasty combination!
  • I watched the 2025 Formula 1 Spanish Grand Prix! 🇪🇸 The late safety car near the end of the race made for some interesting battles and surprise finishes for a few drivers.
  • I had a lovely chat with @/xSuperMario64x on Discord. 💜
Oh, while I'm here, happy pride month! I feel that it's extra important more than ever to stick together with what's going on in these current events. 🌈
 
- Finally decided to switch mobile providers yesterday, and found a pretty good deal! I realised how stupid my current plan was (£20 per month for only 550mb of data???), so got one with 30gb for half the price, plus first 3 months are £2. My new sim should be arriving soon.

- Start my new job in less than 2 hours.... 😖 But I'm happy the weather is nice today so I'm doing my laundry to hang out before I set off for work.

- Had overnight oats for breakfast (y)
 
I’m done with the ArtFight prep that I didn’t have to make new artwork for!! ^^ I’m feeling better with all that out of the way, so now I just need to lock in and actually get to work on making some references ahahah

Watched some of GeminiTay’s new Vintage Story VOD today, and my parents and I got to see her Guess the Build episode this evening! They’re normally really funny, but this one… oh my god. I was laughing so hard I couldn’t breathe several times throughout 😂 I think we made the cats worry too LOL
 
- First day of work went ok i think 😅 Found out I'll be getting paid weekly which should be very interesting (and nice not to have to wait ages for money). It just seems overall a lot less complicated or stressful than my last office job. But we'll see

- Weather is looking really good for my trip next week <3

- New sim card got dispatched so should be arriving soon!!

- Had protein pancakes for breakfast
 
I've started going on walks every day, and I've been doing this for about a week and holy ****, why does it actually improve my mental health?? Crazy, I thought all those posts advising you to go outside and exercise we're a load of crap, but now I'm like: where have my thoughts and wishes of yeeting gone.?? Insane how that works. Like urges have gone from a 9/10 to a 5. So I've been feeling lot better!

I passed the french exam I did a few months ago, finally got my results (67%, which is honestly way more than I was expecting, I did not think I was going to pass). I also got my latin test results, and I got 83%! Cool beans for that. I had a short talk with my philosophy teacher before the last day of school and she said she graded me based on past essays and I got 90s in most of them so it's looking positive on that front!

I got a new keyring, it's a crab and shells encased in resin. Very cool and summery

My sister was out with friend and she bought me stickers :^0 they're all really cute to be honest, but now I don't know what I can use them for.

Was able to give a friend their bday card before last day of school so thank goodness for that 😮💨
 
Last year I finally decided to share my creations with the world and start my new IG account for this purpose. During October and November I posted 6 times and that was it. I was thinking and stressing about it every now and then, even working on new ideas, but never actually reactivated the account. And today the time has come! After 6 months I've shared a new post! I'm very happy about this. I have a few more images prepared and I hope I will be more consistent this time.

I know this doesn't sound like anything special but it's a huge thing for me. I'm really bad with social media and promoting myself 🫠
 
Today has been a bit better 🙂.

My mom made some corn bread for me :D.

I found out my Zhongli nendoroid has been shipped!

Jewels and Spanky were sleeping on my bed for a couple hours together; they haven’t been sleeping together much anymore so this made me really happy ☺️. I got snuggles from both of them at different points in the morning too. Spanky hasn’t snuggled with me for quite some time too.

I’ve been enjoying chatting with @.: Meri :. ☺️.

I’m excited about the backdrops; mine still hasn’t appeared yet though (I bought it and configured it an hour ago).

I recently got some more new units in OPTC (will share another time; I’m hoping to get Yamato and Ace still 🤞)

I’m enjoying more One Piece; it has been kinda hard focusing on the episodes with a lot on my mind recently but finally was able to get myself back to watching more episodes yesterday and I plan on watching more tonight 🙂. I’m really looking forward to meeting Yamato (hopefully soon but also kinda hoping it is not since that means I’m getting closer to being done with the arc and I want it to go on a bit longer 😅).

That’s it for now 🙂
