i wanna start this entry by filling you in on some stuff that happened
yesterday evening. when i came home and went into the kitchen, i saw that
one of my flatmates had left on the kitchen counter two boxes of donuts.
they looked amazing and were each the size of my fist. i didn't touch them
cuz i'm a good flatmate but then the person who'd brought them ran into
me, and she told me i could take as many as i liked!! i took two jam
donuts to eat after dinner, and they were great. apparently yesterday was
polish donut day - probably something similar to pancake day in the uk.
that night when i was about to go to bed, i figured i could do something
nice as repayment for the tasty donuts. that flatmate had hosted a
birthday party in our kitchen a little while ago, and the balloons from
the party were still up on the walls. i figured my flatmate had been
hesitant to take them down cuz they were confetti-filled balloons, but i
was gonna be careful and deflate them safely. HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH no. one
little prod of my scissors and BANG confetti everywhere. flatmate found me
in the kitchen picking up confetti cuz i couldn't find the vaccuum cleaner
lmaoo.
as for today!!! i got up bright n early, made my way to the campus library
to settle in and read strange case. i snagged a window seat that
was secluded on 3/4 sides so i could be super focused and comfortable! it
also happened to be really REALLY windy today, like weather warning windy,
which meant that i got some fantastic ambience from the rattling and
howling sounds it all made. the book itself was good! i think i would've
liked it better having not known the plot, but like it's
jekyll and hyde, everyone knows that story to some extent. i'm
still excited to discuss it in class, and it was great fun to blast
through it in one sitting!
then i went home and had a quiet afternoon before livestreaming portal 1
on twitch! i actually beat it for the first time tonight, which is kinda
funny cuz portal 2 is one of my all-time favourite games. it was alot
easier than i remembered it being tbh, still a good puzzler but no 'baba
is you' haha. next week i'm gonna stream portal 2! livestreaming is a
super chill hobby and i'm so glad i took the opportunity to pick it up.
so ya that was basically my day! i have some plans brewing for more
updates to this site, so stay tuned for those and atleast some more blog
entries whenever i have an interesting day. cya!! :3

i've had such a busy day today and it's not even 3pm when i'm writing
this!! :0 so much happened that it's inspired me to give my website a blog
(again, i had one pre-renovation lol). so bascially i thought i had a
stinky 9am class today, and i was RIGHT, but i showed up to the wrong
building so i thought it was cancelled lol. i kind of don't mind missing
it though bc what i did instead was a lot more fun!!
first i got a hazelnut mocha to sip on + wake me up, my friends weren't on
campus yet so i just chilled out and made some headway on reading 'the
strange case of dr jekyll and mr hyde' which is a veeeeery fun book. i've
been excited to read it cuz it's one of my bf's favourites! it's also
really short so i might even finish it and put my thoughts at the end of
this blog entry.
what i really wanted to do, though, was to go to CEX (a used
games/cd/dvd/tech store) and scope out some secondhand cds and gadgets.
lately i've discovered an interest in older apple products, especially
ipods, and CEX doesn't have great deals on those but it's still
fun to look and see. last time i went i saw a leapmotion for sale, and
that's vtuber tech so i bet it has a super interesting story behind it. i
was also interested in finding some old cds, cuz i need something to put
on my future ipod right?? and i've been on kind of a 2000s 'nostalgia'
kick in general (in air quotes bc i was a baby in the 00s lmao). i almost
bought a david guetta cd but didn't end up getting anything. still had fun
browsing!! they had an overpriced(?) ipod shuffle and a pink razer seiren
mini (that's a usb microphone) at a pretty nice price.
on the way back to campus i stopped by a little collectible store. i've
been there before and it's great because it's just piles and piles of
stuff from monster high dolls to pokémon plush to toy cars, tiny lil store
crammed with SO MUCH STUFF!! and up on the shelf was a 2019 easter bunny
miku figurine, one i've been wanting for AGESSSS!! it wasn't in the box
but that doesn't matter to me at all, i snatched it up right away and i'm
gonna put her on my shelf when i get home! she might be a knockoff but
idrc about that either lolololol
and then i went to class and worked on my website instead of paying
attention.... oh well!! ty for reading about my day, i hope you have a
good one too!! :3
