not quite daily musings

summer listlessness continues :cry:

another uneventful week is passing me by (the last of the summer in fact..) but i am surprisingly not feeling dreadful abt it!! i will likely feel the regret once school starts next monday but for now. i can do whatever i want even if that means nothing of note.
on the other hand i suppose that isnt QUITE true, bc iwas out yesterday AND the day before!!! deskrotting day was earned. on monday i went to the big mall an hour away from home with soup and my younger sister who still needs an alias on this site,, it was a terribly unoptimized shopping trip but i still got a cute dress and some more trinkets <3
yesterday i went on more errands with my sister (was mostly just more clothes shopping) but i got some bocchi the rock trading cards (??) at the mall and pulled almost exclusively nijiryos,.... my handfuls of nijiryo and 1 single bocchi. sorry kita.

last night i was feeling the Good Drama withdrawals again bc i desperately want to watch the new ep of love next door but it doesnt come out!! until!! saturday!!
that combined with the simulanka exploration i needed to get thru finally enticed me to start lovely runner. after finishing it today i can safely conclude i might just be a snob when it comes to straight romance..especially in dramas.... lfmsdhflhlsdhglkhlkewj;lkdg i promise i tried to like it but the main two just didnt have a dynamic that i was invested in, AND they didnt really have any chemistry or charm together to carry them otherwise...which meant i had to sit thru 16 episodes of time travel melodrama waiting for kim taesung (2nd male lead...) to show up and keep me interested in the show. loved that guy </3
after that i fuckign. fought for my life in divergent universe bc im still trying to beat protocol 6 to get the last of those rewardsFUCK YOU SCREWLLUM!!!!!!!! YOUR GAME MODE IS SHIT!!!!!!!!! (jk pls be playable soon ily) i saw ppl saying u can cheese most of the levels with firefly but either my ff team sucks or they were lying. i always forget how team synergy matters fr fr in this game.. all of which to say that i got my ass beat by the first boss using firefly but i almost cleared the entire thing with my yunli team. emphasis on ALMOST BCEAUSE ARGENTI WENT BERSERK AND WIPED OUT MY WHOLE PARTY WITH ONLY A QUARTER OF HIS HP LEFT. WHATEVER. IDGAF ANYWAYS.
in more gacha related news, i love jiaoqiu...... i wanna roll him.... trophy pink fox who i need for exactly zero teams.... i will have to exercise restrait bc i have a long long wishlist in this game for the next few months,, in order of priority: sunday (would love to e0s1. but it depends on where he lands), screwllum, robin e1, moze+some eidolons ideally, ratio/aventurine lightcones.., ruan mei, i also want robin lc because thats my beloved girl..... waiting for stream next week to see if the robin rerun is real or not :cry:

hiiii

[coughs] so it hasnt been QUITE a year but i honestly dont even remember the last time i touched vscode for this site so. it has been a while! i probably would not have touched it if not for soup sending her new web weaving page on her site... after which i poked around her site and had massive fomo abt it. i TOO, WANT TO HAVE A METICULOUSLY KEPT MEDIA LOG, that has all of the dates in which i read things throughout the year... i too want to subject people to my twisted mind that connects nonsensical dots between unrelated media. i ALSO WANT TO BE CHIEF PATTERN RECOGNIZER!!!! so here we are....

the actual events of my day were uneventful as usual, i actually woke up on time for my summer stats class today bc i woke up at 9:30 ish and stayed awake after scrolling on twitter for a bit (and seeing soup's new matoba icon <3) i didnt pay attention in class bc i fuckign hate this class and i dont understand anything!!!! i need to send a scary email about our final project bc i missed a few classes but i . am scared. i will probably send it tmr but iiii dont want to... i wish theyd just put all the info on the blackboard page instead of the bare bones info we have in the syllabus,,, i dont undertsand what we r supposed to be doing,,,
in any case i did genshin weeklies w eggy and then got cereal before doing a scuffed divergent universe run in hsr. after that...... i watched the new ep of shoshimin anime that i forgot to get to over the weekend! i really liked last week's ep but the first half of this one had me unsure of what to make of it, until we got to the closing scene of the episode. i really like all of kengo's scenes in the show's 3 episodes so far, he plays off of kobato so well w/ how they clearly know each other so well, even if kengo hadnt been around for whatever event set kobato off on his new mindset of wanting to be "ordinary" (still unsure where this plot is going but. i guess ill just let the show tell me). kengo is also just kind of such a fun guy lol. willing to impose on kobato for his freakish skills, and is willing to be imposed on in return, as long as kobato is genuine w/ him. rllyy love the way the scene is set during that convo,, the light that fills the classroom after kengo lets him know so directly how he feels abt him. really hoping the show manages to make osanai & kobato's relationship more compelling bc as of right now they dont really have much to their dynamic to keep me hooked. excited for next week's ep tho!!!

after shoshimin i was once again hit w/ trc withdrawals. kurofai withdrawals specifically. i miss them so fucking bad ;__; so i started reading some chapters of the trc sequel again.. congrats on the marriage kurofai.. <- person who was not paying attention to the plot whatsoever.
i cant be blamed though bc my brainspace for the past few days is stuck in acid tokyo->infinity->celes arc so seeing fai so happy and unburdened... throws up everywhere
unfortunately for me i bought volume 17 recently and it SHOULD be here by wednesday. so i will be back in the acid tokyo trenches once again... i think volumes 1-10 will take a while to get here but at least those volumes are all mostly happy so ill have a good time rereading them!!! i really need to sort out the bookshelf situation before those get here tho.. lol...

meow

almost exactly a month since the last log..., not quite MONTHLY musings....... in the span of time since august 9th i have cycled thru every stage of grief regarding attending a new uni and now im coping like a normal person (staying up until 3am every wednesday just because i CAN(because i have to wake up at 7am every other day...)) at least now i have time to wake up my brain in the morning before having to pay attention in a class w the hr long commute 😿
fontaine has released in btwn these two entries omfg. i spent full time hours in that damn region the last two weeks of august as one does when coping w the horrors... lyntwins my beloved... every day i think abt them and feel less sane waiting for the next patch . the fontch bringing me back to genshin in earnest is SOMETHING for sure... lured in by the hydro archon funnies and trapped forever bc of the delightful underwater mechanics. imfinsihed

OH YEAH i also watched the one piece live action show and it was actly super fun even if i will never ever ever touch the source material w a ten foot pole (bc of the artstyle. and the women. and the lenght lmfao) tho tbh if not for the artstyle i think i might have been tempted.. hope it gets a s2 bc this cast is very charming and also. hella nice to look at LMFOAOA


actually i cant remember what else i even wanted to write here..,,, whenever i get a semblance of free time i will start chipping at my lukerosa canon story rewatch so i can write them the dissertation they deserve. and also bc i miss them so bad <3
OHHHHH I GOT GENSHIN CONCERT TICKETS!!!!! IT WAS THE MOST INFURIATING ORDEAL AND IT TOOK A GOOD FOUR HRS BUT WE SURVIVED im soooo excited i still need to put together ,my dream setlist that will certainly not be played juts for Fun. hell yeah

i now go to poke around other bits of the site to see what i need to do b4 i go do my.. homework...................................

tiredtiredtired

today i woke up and did my final two rolls on blade banner in hsr in my final hopes that he would find his way home and that i could finally add a gacha w to my list, but instead i received nothing 💖 luckily i have made peace w this already, and so i will continue playing this game nonetheless bc its honestly so fun. love the gameplay love the cast love the way ur choices actually affect things in the quests..
anw after that i went to work and was forced to do my job [8398384 injured 4984 dead] and ran into a person i knew in high school who RECOGNIZED ME and REMEMBERED A VERY SPECIFIC EMBARASSING THING I DID . i came home and collapsed for like ten yrs after that and i couldnt find any snacks in the house either...
finally finally started tinkering w this site again and i messed around w the pics on the future favs page for like ever but i couldnt figure out how to do it w scss.... at least the pics i made look cute eheheh... i need to make general ones for media pages where i can elaborate on misc chara and ship opinions or smth.. i wonder if i should make chara centric pages too or if that should be sorted by fandom.. i guess youll be able to tell who my faves r eventually by the amt of features they get in random pages here eventually (im sorry for lukerosa brain atm. im so sory they just got engaged forgive me) ok the end i must go watch marriage anime ep 6 now!!

these entries r fr gonna be how much of my day can i fit into one run-on sentence im so sorry omfg

testing 2! trying to mess around with more small things before i feel like attempting the Big things, like trying to make the favs page all nice and pretty n organized w sections for ships/charas/etc.... i dont even kno how to size a picture <3 making the otp page also entails sifting thru messages from 938492 yrs ago to find out what exactly drew me to the pairings in question bc i can never remember how i started liking things. only that i woke up one day and was insane.

anw. we return to the grind (ignoring the difficult work and finding cute lukerosa pics to make the img link for their lore page)

testing testing testingggggg !!!!!! currently i am trying to make this site look slightly more pretty without messing up all of xue's hard work.. thsnk u bestie

today i didnt accomplish much else but i made chocolate covered strawberries for a mini bday thing for my cousin (and also for me but. the real party will be on tues!!!)

its been ten billion hours and i still havent been able to properly link journal in the sidebar its os over
