happy birthday to me!! national oreo day too!! i hope everyone has a great day ♡
Welcome! - My goal for this blog
God I forgot how much I loved Tumblr! When I was in high school I used to use Tumblr religiously. It was the first thing i would check in the morning before school and I have many fond memories of finding new bands, artists, and clothing through tumblr. I distinctly remember my friends and I staying up late at sleepovers trying to code our tumblr pages perfectly, adding Sleeping w/ Sirens songs to our pages, sparkler mouse cursors, and finding the "perfect aesthetic" for our blogs. I truly have so many fond memories of this site. At the time, however, I did not have the courage to post any of my own post, let alone my own art work. I was EXTREMELY socially anxious and just the thought of others being able to perceive me through my art or my blog post terrified me! I am very thankful that I have grown to be comfortable enough to share my art, passions, and voice with the world. I still have a ways to go of course, but progress is progress, and that should be celebrated. My goal is to use this blog to express what teenager me couldn't - myself. Call it making up for lost time or whatever you want, but either way I'm finally excited to be me. I seriously hope you guys enjoy my blog! From the original artwork, to the anime and fanart repost, to the little post like this one where I simply just share my thoughts and feelings, I hope you find a little joy out of it all! Thank you for being here.
Thanks for joining me on this journey :)
Kendimi bulduğum bir hobiye sahip oldum bugün,kendi ruhumu yansıtabildiğim bir hobi. Kullanmadığım manifest defterimi aldım,içerisine bazı notlar yazdım,her şey hakkında olabilir. Sonra içerisine bazı resimler çizdim,derin bir anlamı olan. O defteri duygu ve düşüncelerimi yansıtabileceğim güvenli bir yer haline getirdim. Sadece benim ruhumu yansıtacak biçime büründürdüm. Başka hiç kimsenin o defterde yeri yok. Sadece ben ve dokunuşalarıma yer var.
Another Monday another bi weekly blog post!!
This week, like the previous, is juicy! I really am enjoying the one-a-day method even if it's not the most efficient it keeps me working on this passion project and from burning out!
First things first, I fixed the *AWFUL* lag spikes caused by the calculations mice run when fleeing from the player. It was running the code more than necessary but it is now fixed! When the full base mechanics are done, before we add npcs I'll be doing tweaks to polish the prey AI's but for now it's great!
Next is secondaries,(secondaries are the patterns that go on your pelt, ex: spots,) there was a problem with them, they are *always on top* of everything, unfortunately there is only one way to fix it but it is a hefty load that I'll start on today after I shower and get this out!
TDLR: the system needs a rework.
Next is that I added BACKGROUNDS, you can be a kittypet, stray or a clan born cat! Technically because the first map has no houses and there's no npcs yet, stray and kittypet have no difference but later they will be distinguishable! These backgrounds also change where you spawn, clan born cats spawn where their clan is while strays spawn in random-ish locations, I made a small map below with the red being stray locations and the blue being clans!
Minor change but the ugly generic sand bridge is now a super awesome path of rocks in the water, although it's functionally decoration now, in the future it'll cost stamina to cross, you can pounce on other cats crossing (hopefully they can swim 😬) and special events may cover it preventing non swimming cats from crossing!
Stamina is another mechanic that has been added! When doing actions like pouncing, you'll lose stamina, stamina is slowly regained every couple seconds in a batch of 10, you start with a base maximum stamina star of 100. It's not super complicated but I want to add it as another mechanic that affects your decision making but isn't a drag to play with.
Another base mechanic has also been added, sleeping and sleep deprivation! You have 4 bars of sleep that fade as the passes, but I'd you don't sleep out will go into the negatives causing you to have less stamina and eventually, *die*. You can also see i made an awful looking sleep indicator button, it needs polishing but it's the basis for other button prompts for things like burying prey.
A concern was brought up a long while ago by the games co-desginer (MsWolfy/Whimsy). The issue was that some people with disabilities or just in general may struggle to estimate where they will land when pouncing on prey, in the settings there is now a pouncing indicator! It's simply a red circle, I prefer to adjust myself but for someone who really needs it, it's there for you!! Also making this mechanic forced me to re-look at the pounce mechanic and realize that it was abhorrently coded and a mess to figure out where you would land, however it is now an exact sciences, down to the pixels!
And lastly but definitely not least, character randomization! Randomize; names (currently breaks when building the game for release but I'm working on that) pelt color, pelt secondary and the secondaries color too!
Anyway, my next update may not be so packed, I think the first week will be spent on bug fixes and polish, adjustments and smaller mechanics however I think that that's just as important as the big things!!! Have a lovely day or evening

greetings from quarantine
A silver lining: use quarantine as an opportunity for healing. Yes, I am putting aside all the negative things about the whirlwind of what is happening right now, because:
1. We all know that
2. This is my personal happy place
3. I’m not giving that microscopic horror a spotlight on my blog
4. But please do cooperate! Stay indoors, take your vitamins, wash your hands/sanitize, and always keep safe!
Since my work is at full halt until the lockdown is lifted, I have been spending most of my time on my hobbies and interests. Perhaps this is what you call a “distraction masterlist”, a distraction from all the crazy that’s been going on, and these are the things and the people that keep me sane and what gives me genuine happiness during these very difficult times.
1. Orenji Project Orenji Project is a brand that I’m currently building. For now, I’ve been doing plenty of passion projects and fanart to increase my audience, but I do plan on turning it into something bigger in the future. (hint: selling my own merch) Even though I work as a Multimedia Designer on my day job, I feel like designing is still my #1 hobby. It’s just what I love to do! I just finished doing a collection of collages and I plan on making a zine next. I’m really excited because I love making visually appealing and aesthetically pleasing layouts. I get to conceptualize, write, and produce it all from start to finish, HELLA FUN!
2. AB6IX (A.K.A. The Best Boys™)
Get yourselves kpop boys who’ll teach you how to make soap and hand sanitizers during a pandemic, haha! Kidding aside, I’m honestly very thankful to them for giving us so much content these days so we won’t be deadass bored while we’re stuck at home. April fools’ pranks, mafia game night, Idol Radio week, and just Youngmin failing to sew a belt for an hour whilst never forgetting to remind their fans to always wear a mask, wash their hands, and stay at home, that’s some high quality content if I do say so myself. ㅋㅋㅋ I love these precious kids to bits and I’m very grateful. Just being their fan gives me so much delight and joyousness. Although they’re helping to flatten the curve, I’m very worried for them since they’re risking their health. 예삐들 잘지내시고 건강하세요! 많이 많이 사랑해요 ♡
3. Korean Language Lessons
While trying not to fall deep into unproductivity and bad habits, I thought why not continue this again? I’ve always been interested in studying languages so I chose to self study Korean/Hangul back in 2017, but I was busy with my last 2 years in college then I had a full-time job so I didn’t have a lot of time for it until now. I still have long ways to go but I’m at Lesson 10 out of 17 a.k.a. learning how to use future, past, and present tenses in sentences. As I type right now, 3 languages are getting scrambled up in my brain; nonetheless, I still love learning! I love studying, memorizing, and taking down notes. I guess that’s a hobby now too since I already graduated from college? Haha. Also, a friend invited me to take Japanese classes with her, so I guess that’s the next agenda after this.
4. Bon Appétit
Bon Appétit, the only Youtube channel ever. Period. I love this channel and I’ve been binge watching their videos since the start of the quarantine. From a recommended “It’s Alive” episode, I fell down on a very deep rabbit hole of culinary videos I never knew I needed in my life. Why didn’t you recommend this to me sooner Youtube algorithm? Google AI overlord? My secret FBI agent? I trusted you guys! I absolutely adore everyone in BA, though my all time favorite chef is Chris. His show, Reverse Engineering, is so fun and satisfying to watch! Plus his small cameos on Gourmet Makes and It’s Alive are way too comical, never fails to make me laugh. The way he always wants his work perfected to a T, I relate to that way too much, and I get little pockets of happiness in my heart when he gets an ingredient right, especially if it’s cheese, haha! Runner-ups:
5. My family and friends, of course.
Actually, this would #1 but I don’t wanna be cheesy like that. Vibin’ with my fams all day and video chatting with my friends at night has been keeping me sane. Always love and appreciate them to bits.
6. KJH PH
Being a somewhat lead designer for a fanbase has been keeping me pretty busy at times. Not to be that pabibo designer, but I even made digital branding guidelines for the fanbase, haha! (note: I’m really that pabibo designer, sorry I couldn’t help it)
7. Last but definitely not the least, Hospital Playlist
GREAT DRAMA. AMAZING CHARACTERS. LOVE IT. ALOHA SOTY. LEE IKJOON LOML. WATCH IT!
To anyone who’s reading this: I hope you’re staying at home and doing well. Please continue to take care of yourself as well as your mental health! When this is all over, please come back to this post and tell me you’re alive and good, alright?
of dreams and whatnot
Maybe somewhere peaceful and quaint, I thought to myself one hot and humid Thursday afternoon. It was when Gel unexpectedly sent me a picture of her dream apartment, one of those dainty picture-perfect studios with a loft. She always mentioned that she wanted to live somewhere sub-urban, in a tiny flat with heaps of house plants, a plethora of art framed on the walls, and an abundance of yellow accents. I must say though, it all suits her hermit crab-like personality very well ㅎㅎㅎ.
I’ve always had this dream that one day, when I’ve earned enough, I’m going to move to a place far from the city. It could be because I’ve only lived in the Metro all my life, and it’s safe to say that I’m tired of all the hustle, bustle, and the extreme lack of fresh air. [cue in AB6IX: I wanna breathe, just set me free~] Still and all, I’ve always admired the beauty of nature way more than man-made structures anyway, the scenery of the countryside makes me feel a wave of comfort and healing. I greatly enjoy shows that are set in the province too; simple, slow-paced, yet immensely refreshing. It makes me feel a lot calmer, like I can breathe better, you know?
Thinking of more reasons took me to a time when I was much younger. I realized that I have plenty of delightful memories associated with the scene. My family used to visit our grandma’s house in the province; we would always go once or twice a year and I always had waaaay too much fun. I remember sprinting away from the chickens and ducks in the backyard, picking rice grains at the farm with my cousins, running through the vast open-field, and jealously watch my older cousins lay down in a heaping pile of hay. (my mom wouldn’t let me because she said there might be poisonous snakes and rats, boo no fun!)
Perhaps my numero uno goal is to live each day simply and happily. I’m not really the type of person who wants to attain so much money, power, or hoard material things. Maybe this seems way too idealistic, but I just want to live a quaint life with my family and do the things I love everyday. Do art, see galaxies at night, grow my own produce, have at least 3 dogs, and maybe own a neighborhood cafe too! It all sounds like a great plan. ☺

Islamic Prayer At Holy City Of Medina For Muslims
do you pray regularly?
Pray with sincerity and focus, speaking from the heart. Set a regular time for prayer to build consistency, whether in the morning or before bed. Be patient if you feel distracted; mindfulness grows with practice. Gratitude, reflection, and asking for guidance can deepen your spiritual connection.

beautyfull a mosque
A mosque is a place of worship for Muslims, where they gather to pray, reflect, and engage in community activities. It typically includes a prayer hall, a mihrab indicating the direction of Mecca, and a minaret from where the call to prayer is announced. Mosques serve as spiritual, educational, and social hubs for the Muslim community.

Hii Tumblr People! Last night was full of emotions for me. The person I love is not well and it worries me to the core. I've been trying my best to be with him and I'll continue to do so. However, I really wish he gets better quickly. It makes me sick when he is sick too. His jacket is the only thing that gives me comfort when I feel sick like this.
Besides that, I've had online classes and I'm trying my best to catch up with my revisions. Fun fact about me: I do accounting.
