Sam the Man (entry no.24)

 It's been a minute since my last post so let me catch you up to speed. I'm still holding strong to my no social media rule and I only miss it when I'm hanging out with friends and they are all browsing on Instagram. Other than that, I'm doing good. My sister let's me borrow her phone to check up on the England national football team every now and then. Don't judge me! Euro's are this Friday and the England team looks very different from the last Euro Cup. No Rashford, Maguire, or Henderson. To be honest, I don't think we really need them but I'm not a big fan of change so it's a little unsettling. I really should be going to bed instead of writing this entry. I'm on the first paragraph but I've literally yawned at least four times already.

I stayed up late last night watching anime and playing Stardew Valley, one of the best RPG's known to man. Essentially it's a farming game, you inherit your grandfather's run down farm and have to build it and the community it belongs to from the ground up. There is mining, fishing, foraging, and a lot of planning involved. You can even get married and have kids! Sam, the skateboarding, songwriting, golden retriever boy is always my go-to husband. I joke around saying that he's the love of my life for over 400 hours (approximately the amount of time I've spent in game). Regardless of the world or characters I've created in Stardew I always go for Sam and I'm gonna sound completely psychotic but I think that's sweet. It's kinda like saying all roads lead back to you, it's simply meant to be every single time. 

What's also meant to be every single time is me, Tanooki Mario, and a first place trophy whenever I play Mario Kart. I would bet money on my Mario Kart skills, but out of all the people I have played against there are three that are genuinely better then me. They'll get purple boosts every time and leave me in the dust. Unfortunately, I'm not a gracious loser when it comes to Mario Kart but I'll learn someday. I'm a competitive person, but only with things I am good at. For example, if you're gonna challenge me in hockey or baseball, I will lose with dignity simply because I knew I didn't have a chance to begin with. 

I'm an all or nothing girl through and through. Hence why I struggle at first when I'm doing something new. In fact, that's exactly what I'm going to be doing at work tomorrow since it will be my first shift as a self-checkout attendant. It shouldn't be too difficult but once again, I don't like change and I've gotten a pretty good routine at work now. It's ok though, I gas myself up saying that I shall become the cashier avatar, master of all elements, bagging, scanning, assisting, and cashback. But if I am to do that effectively I should probably get some sleep. Thank you as always for listening. 

You're still here? Meet me at entry no. 25 :)

Are you coming or going? (entry no.50)

It's been quite a while since my last blog post. Honestly I've been having too much fun while also stressing out and it's made me a fabulous combination of overstimulated and lazy. Hence why I have not posted an entry in over a month! But I don't want to let anymore time pass, I want to keep documenting my life, my experiences, and thoughts for a long time. My life updates aren't as interesting anymore now that I'm not in school. Well my life is actually super interesting right now but I just don't feel like writing about it, I'd rather live it in the moment.  I've got so many exciting plans for the summer, trips I want to take, people I want to see, hobbies I want to get back into. Like I do every summer, I want to go back to learning the ukulele, I also wanna take time to play some of my favorite video games again. I just find it hard to pursue these things cuz I legitimately cannot sit still, it's awful. I still try to pick up a book every now...

I fall for pretty home and away kits (entry no.25)

 Ayeooo, she's back only 4 days later, please hold your applause until the entry is finished. I'm currently a multi-tasking queen, typing away as I watch England vs Serbia, both team's first match in this year's Euro Cup. So far so good, we're winning one nothing and Southgate created a killer starting line-up not gonna lie. We got Kane, Foden, and Saka up front and Rice, Bellingham, and Trent in midfield... need I say more. Now that I'm writing, I realize that I haven't once mentioned what I thought about the team's new jerseys. I think they are cool, very classic looking but not as cool as the ones they wore during the 2022 World Cup. I loved both of those home and away kits. The bright red away colors and the white and bright blue home jerseys were perfection.  However, Germany's home and away kits this year were my absolute favorites. The white home jerseys with hints of red, yellow, and black look so beautiful, almost like the players are on fir...

Co-workers & Classmates (entry no.47)

 Hello! It's been a minute, I know it always has been but I always feel the need to say that when I start an entry. I'm currently in my 10:00 am Web Technologies class, after today I only have to come two more times and I'll officially be done with this course. The same is true for my other Friday class on Microsoft Power Shell, I'm really nervous about that final exam. If I don's pass it I could very easily fail my class. I have NEVER failed a class, not in middle school, not in high school, not in college, and hopefully I never will. Long hours of studying await me to make the previous statement a reality. But my determination is just as strong as my fear and anxiety. If I want it enough I can have it, April is finally here, (not literally, but I'm trying to make a point). Honestly, it feels surreal how close to the finish line I am, college has taken up two years of my life. I was 19 when I started. On week six of my first semester I started working at my cur...
