today marks my second month in my new workplace and all i am is glad that i am where i am now in this season. ( ᵕ̤ ‧̫̮ ᵕ̤ )
in my (f)unemployment season (so far), which is both by choice and not by choice because i chose to resign, but i also got rejected in all of the job applications i’ve applied for so far (so far, because we still be looking, and it’s only been two weeks since my last day at work) so unemployed not by choice, but by circumstance (?). anyway, this did allow me to catch up on some stuff (besides cleaning my room since i was 15 so that i can sleep soundly and not wake up with a bad case of allergies), and by stuff, i meant the regular rotation of the games i play:
here are updates no one asked for but i will update anyway!
rushed the month-long animal crossing new horizons’ museum event to celebrate the museum and galleries month. we also have our national cultural heritage month on may so that’s another reason to go back and visit my acnh museum since i wasn’t able to do so in real life ƈ ͡ (ुŏ̥̥̥̥ ‸ ŏ̥̥̥̥) ु not even blaming work since part of my last responsibility as a resignee is to finsih and submit all the necessary paperworks and other requirements for clearance (or i won’t get the last of my salary, and the Lord knows i need those funds to sustain me while i go looking for work), but i digress. anyway, usually i do drop by galleries and museums when i can during may since most museums and galleries do have their entrance fees revoked the entire month as a way to encourage more people to drop by so i’ll just do that next year irl.
i’ve been playing acnh since the year it was released, and if there’s one place in my island that i still love going around when i’m done with the intended tasks for the day, it’s the kemeroot museum (my island’s name is kemeroot, btw). ofc i took screenshots on my switch. here’s my character as she crams the stamp rally on the last day.
i remember how i used to play this religiously on the year of its release, that i was able to amass around 2k hours of running around kemeroot, terraforming, planting, landscaping, renovating, and decorating but i’m still not yet done with the ✨final form✨ of kemeroot. i’ve yet to check the number of hours i have alloted for this game now that i’ve been playing it again frequently.
june and july are months of hydrangeas in acnh, too, so i intend to do a lot of photoshoots and redecorating in my island because i love hydrangeas irl and in games.
another favourite in-game activity for me is visiting the cafe inside the museum, too. it’s only in-character for my acnh character to enjoy coffee the same amount as i do.
i totally forgot about the 10-photo limit tumblr imposes on mobile so there’ll be another entry that centers on unsolicited updates about genshin and star rail. and here i am thinking i could type them all down in one entry 😭
cyno saying this tells me that during their student days, haitham and kaveh weren’t the most diligent when it came to attending their classes, and though it’s implied in canon that the four of them only became more familiar with each other after they graduated (with kaveh as haitham’s bridge to the two besties), and has gotten closer since the last sumeru archon quest, i wouldn’t be surprised if cyno would notice this detail about them since both haitham and kaveh are well-known in the akademiya even when they were students: haitham was popularly unpopular due to his unusual approach to studying, and kaveh stood out from his peers because his talent and intellectual prowess earned him the label, light of kshahrewar (and of my life, too 🤲🏻 hihihi). cyno probably had an idea who they are back then, but never really formed any bond with them until they were all out of school already.
(i do remember reading in his character story that haitham frequently skips classes since he finds independent study more efficient and effective for him, which is strangely frowned upon by the academe itself. i don’t know about kaveh since he’s always struck me as that student who will still show up to class even if he’s feeling under the weather just because he’s supposed to show up for classes.)
or it’s possible he just can’t believe the two of them aren’t arguing for once, that’s why he can’t help but comment. love it for the two of them (haitham and kaveh), honestly, and i mean it in the most platonic of ways (as to why i stopped shipping them romantically, i’ll save that story for another day 😌). i do feel like even if haitham and kaveh’s current relationship is a mixed bag (as kaveh said so), when duty calls for them to cooperate, they can hold their tongues and personal opinions until they accomplish what they’re supposed to do. it’s like those “the body remembers” kind of moment, if i’m making any sense.
anyway, it’s been a week since i finished the cyno story quest (because i have little self-control when kaveh is mentioned. i miss my best husband okay!!), and i found the entire quest heartwarming, though a little too fast for me? anyway, i’m so excited for sethos to join the boy band, too. i shall now call them my 5umeru bois.
(i also just recently finished the last of my requirements for my job clearance so i’ll catch up on keeping a record of my genshin, star rail, and animal crossing ✨gameplays✨)
my preservation girlie era will not be a dream anymore after winning the 50/50 in the light cone banner this patch ( 。 •̀ ᴖ •́ 。)
i wish my genshin pulls are this lucky too ( 。 •̀ ᴖ •́ 。)
changed kemeroot’s island flag from usagyun pixel art to kaveh’s friendship namecard earlier, and i realized i wanted to make more of these when time permits me (i’m already thinking about making one of thoma’s and wriothesley’s because next best husbands also deserve slots in my custom designs!). anyway, i’m happy with the way it turned out.
maybe i’ll change my island tune, too, when i’m feeling a little hardworking with the changes in kemeroot. something sumeru music related or klee’s character demo song, whatever i’m in the mood for.
i’m not yet done with the entire trailblaze mission of the recent update but m a n
AVENTURINE ƈ ͡ (ुŏ̥̥̥̥ ‸ ŏ̥̥̥̥) ु
fought him in battle the first time and lost but i am still too emotional to build my characters and to try again ƈ ͡ (ुŏ̥̥̥̥ ‸ ŏ̥̥̥̥) ु aventurine my beloved ƈ ͡ (ुŏ̥̥̥̥ ‸ ŏ̥̥̥̥) ु

i also have no idea what's going on there, but yes my top three genshin husbands.
it's also been a struggle overcoming my art block so drawing tiny doodles help me get back into making art gradually (•ؔʶ̷ ˡ̲̮ ؔʶ̷)✧
2022 wrap up collage | 2023
normally i draw my wrap up journal entries, but during this time, i was still recovering from covid (i never want to get sick of it again), and had little energy to spare to make my usual year end illustration. during this time, too, i was in my trying to dabble in collage era, so i figured to do one for a change, and to keep up with the wrap up tradition as well.
the spread is from an old A5-sized notebook, and the papers and some of the stickers i used were mostly second-hand craft materials gifted to me by one of my friends at work. i tried my best to utilize the quote stickers to capture the recurring thoughts and feelings i've had the past year. it's quite a challenge considering most of them didn't really make sense, but that also worked for me as it embodied the chaos i found myself in (intentionally and unintentionally 🙃)
I've added other types of blind box to the shop!! And the new ones are on sale for this weekend!!! we're so close guys, just €2000 more to go 🩷 thank you for your help reblogging and donating 🩷
