Today was a sorta fun day, got my fav on live today, cooked delish dinner and made some balloon animals in prep for tomorrow (incase you missed it, I'm gonna be a clown for a BD party and there's gonna be a ton of kids lol)
I legit couldn't stop laughing while making the balloons, the squeaky sounds had me crying they're just too funny đđđ. I manage to make a doggy and a teddy bear, gonna try and make others to just a feel for them... Debating on using acrylic as MY face paint so that I won't budge.
Anyway that's it x.

OK so I lied... I didn't learn new html magic, I was itching to download substack so I did, and omg why did no one tell me about that app đ?!!!??!!!
Substack is the app I'd be (I wish đ)
I've been listening to all those sick essays and writings and poems and I'm so utterly in love with every one's mind and articulation Urgh.
Anyways it's 9:40 rn, I'm gonna do my doulingo lesson then get on with fixing my website, maybe I'll share the updates soon with yall; I use neocities đŒ, but the website I'm working on is for my alter ego but I'll make another for my main so dw)
Here's a cat I met recently, I told her pspsps đ»
9/10 day :p
May is here
Today went out tried to sketch no motivation, nothing interesting really.
Ok but can we talk about how different each phase of the menstrual cycle feels?? like youâd think itâs just âperiod = sadâ but no babe, itâs a whole seasonal shift in your body every month.
bleeding days? emotional fog. kind of dreamy, kind of raw. i wanna disappear and reappear as a wiser version of myself.
then suddenly iâm glowing?? follicular phase hits and iâm making playlists, plotting my entire life, falling in love with strangers on the street.
ovulation? donât talk to me iâm the sun. i could seduce gods. iâm flirty, social, magnetic, and fully convinced iâm that girl, Angel!
but then luteal phase slaps me with a cosmic âslow down.â i start overthinking, wanting to delete my whole internet presence, (the amount of times I've deactivated my insta is crazy) crying over a tiktok of a dog getting a new toy or that one guy who lost is mom, held her funeral pic with his dad, then the next slide is him holding his dad's funeral pic, that devastated me, this phase makes the world feel loud.
and the wildest part? itâs predictable. itâs a cycle. weâre not crazy, weâre syncing with an inner calendar nobody taught us how to read.
thereâs so much i wanna say on this. like how to work with your cycle instead of fighting it. how to rest, create, reflect, and thrive depending on the phase youâre in. but iâll save all that for the full post.
just wanted to say: youâre not lazy, moody, clingy, or cold. youâre probably just in a different phase. and that deserves softness, not shame.

Sunday Musings - 020225
This morning, I decided that my usual sunny-side-up simply wouldnât do. Sundays deserve something a little more indulgent, a little more specialâso I let my egg transform into golden, cinnamon-kissed French toast. A small luxury, but a luxury nonetheless.
The rest of the day? A delicate balance between leisure and productivity. Too Hot to Handle had me in a vice grip (no regrets, I love that game), but I still managed to weave in moments of purposeâgathering ideas for my alter egoâs literary journey, tending to the house, and looking after my little cousin. Life, in its quiet rhythms.
And then, there was Animal Farm. A book Iâve picked up twice before, but never quite seen the way I do now. Itâs fascinating how stories shift when read through older eyesâhow words once skimmed over now demand to be felt. Perhaps this time, Iâll listen.
Today was a 6/10. Not extraordinary, not mundaneâjust a day, simply lived. Could I have done more? Maybe. But sometimes, being present in even the smallest moments is enough :)
All of a sudden, I need a pink iPhone 16đ«
The Tragic Cycle of Wired Headphones: A Self-Reflection
You know that moment when you buy a fresh pair of wired headphones and make a silent promise to yourself? This time will be different. This time, you wonât shove them into your bag like some kind of deranged squirrel hoarding acorns. You wonât yank them out of your phone like youâre trying to start a lawnmower. You will treat them with care, with respect.
And yet.
Somehow.
Here you are. Again. Another pair, dead. The left earbud? Gone. The right one? Hanging on for dear life, whispering faintly, like itâs calling out from the afterlife. You stare at it, baffled. How? HOW did this happen? You were careful. You learned from the last five pairs. Didnât you?
No. You didnât.
Because the truth is, youâve said this every time. Every. Single. Time. Your history is littered with the ghosts of headphones pastâfrayed wires, sound cutting in and out like a broken radio transmission, rubber casings peeling back to reveal the fragile, suffering wires inside. You think about how they got here. The careless wrapping around your phone. The times you let them dangle from your pocket like an afterthought. The fact that, at least once, you definitely fell asleep with them still tangled around you like a techno-umbilical cord.
And thisâthis isnât just about headphones. No. This is about you. About your patterns. Your delusions. The fact that you keep repeating the same mistakes and expecting a different outcome.
Isnât that the definition of insanity?
Maybe itâs a metaphor. Maybe your headphones die because you donât handle delicate things wellâphysical or emotional. Maybe you ignore problems until they break. Maybe you see the warning signsâthe faint crackle in the audio, the slightly exposed wireâand you pretend everythingâs fine. Itâs fine. Itâs FINE. Until one day, it isnât.
Or maybe, hear me out, wired headphones are simply not meant to last. Maybe they are built to self-destruct, to betray us, to force us into this never-ending cycle of grief and rebirth. Maybe we are all just victims of a larger forceâplanned obsolescence, capitalism, the cruel inevitability of entropy.
Or maybe, just maybe⊠I need to stop buying $3 gas station headphones and expecting them to last a lifetime.
Anyway. If you see me buying another pair tomorrow, no you didnât.
I (edit: recently viewed a video indicating that some people may not recognize what an em dash is, and that using it could lead to assumptions of AI usage. I would like to clarify that I do not utilize AI; I merely use an em dash when it is suitable for its intended purpose.)
Im going to give my blog a fresh start

Today was very productive actually, I'm 80% complete with the project. Anddddddd I'm going back to writing too :D.
I ate the pancakes I made at midnight for breakfast, they were yum as usual :p.
Stuff I consider productive that I did today:
I cleaned my email inbox.
Unsubscribed from random sites I forgot about.
I took 3 coding lesson practices, which lasted a good chunk of my day.
Deleted books and videos that I had saved and I enjoyed but I would actually cry if anyone came across them. This is an attempt to quit that stuff.
Curated podcasts to listen to (I forgot that podcasts on Apple were free).
I downloaded classic books to replace the old ones.
Read and learned about art history instead of doomscrolling or watching the videos I want to keep away from.
Put 1.5hrs to study italian đ
