One whole month

December 20, 2024 08:35pm

Today marks one week that I have been friends with Miku. Do you think it's obsessive that I'm keeping track? Hehe, no, of course not. Little ol' me just isn't used to friendship. But anyway, he told me he'll be away for an exam program event until January 22nd-- a whole month! He said he'll miss me, and that tugged on my poor heart!

He also asked me to take care of his Genshin account, and, being the good friend I am, I agreed. So, he wants Mavuika but has seven pity and zero wishes... I can't fail him! I'll grind and grind until I have nothing to do, just for my friend to be happy because I did a good thing.

Miku

I love my friend so much. It's only day three of being friends with Miku and he's told me that out of his three friends, I'm the one who replies to him most and who he's most comfortable talking freely with. That made me so happy.

Even though I was having classes while we texted, I made time between my work to chat because our time zones allow us only so much time. He told me about his dream, a drawing he's working on, a choso-inspired hairstyle he did, a scary adventure he experienced in 2022, and a bit about his other friend. Around 1pm, when I was settling into my last class of the day, he made a little joke about giving me some of his height in response to hearing my own shorter one. It made me smile, and after my class ended, I wished him a good night because it was already nearly 1am for him. He has resparked something in me that has me smiling in class, thinking back at out conversations, and I'm truly grateful to have met him.

New friend

I am so happy, I made a new friend last night. I was on Genshin and on a call with my best friend Tony when I got a join request from a player named 'miku'. I accepted and asked if they needed anything. They said they needed cor lapis but didn't know the locations, and couldn't use the interactive map because they were on mobile. As a joke, I said, "if you say please I may help" and they ended up doing so. As I helped them collect materials, we talked a bit (they were super polite but texted very... monotonously?) and ended up on the topic of art. He said he draws and wanted to show me his work so I could rate them, and I agreed. I told him my Instagram username and was a little surprised to see that he had such a bare private account. When he sent me his drawings, I compliment him of how talented he is because the art was so good!! After asking me to be his friend, and after I said yes (of course!!), he told me to remember the date that we became friends.

Of course, I will remember December 13th, 2024 as the day that I became friends with you, Miku. I haven't felt this connection of new friendship in so long, nor the question, "do you want to be my friend?". I want to make an effort so that this friendship doesn't wither away with time forgotten, but instead flourishes.

Ten percent

December 10, 2024 08:25pm

For a Tuesday, today was not nearly as awful as I expected it to be. School went as it does, and I was able to get a lot of work done in my media log page that should soon be up and ready. I'm actually pretty excited for that. However, I wished for Neuvillette and, uh, didn't get him. Well, I shouldn't have expected otherwise but it still left me bummed. My siblings also ate TWO things that were supposed to be for me today, and at that I was not happy one bit. All in all, my day was good about ninety percent. The other is entirely my siblings' fault.

Working

Gulp. I spent nearly the whole day only working on the Wanderer shrine (which is up btw!) but it was only because I was struggling with styling the slider thumb on Chrome. Ugh, it took way too long only for me to realize I had excluded the webkit appearance tag... Anyway, I hope to set up the recipe page and media page, and finally add some artwork so that its page is not empty lol.

Friday

Finally, today is Friday, the most merciful of the school weekdays. The week was not tiring or anything but I am much happier when I get to stay home. I am due for presenting an album analysis project on Monday but I am not nervous; On the contrary, I am a little excited because I get to share my music taste with my peers. It is Jack Off Jill's Humid Teenage Mediocracy album, so you know I had to be picky with the songs for something at least a little appropriate, hehe.

Truffle

The day so far has been pretty good; Nothing out of the usual. I am still working on the website and have done pretty good progress. I am also eating a milk chocolate truffle.

Stress

December 1, 2024 2:49pm

Today is Sunday and the first of December. Sundays are not typically liked by me but at least this month will promise more days of rest and less of scholarly work. Speaking of rest days, this short period of rest has given me more time to work on the website, and that I have done. Unfortunately, I am not the fastest worker but I am working with both my hands!
