I read 3 stories from 'Chicken Soup for the Soul' and now I'm inspired to write in my diary again. Except online. Just so you know, I'm not going to write anything too personal. Anyway, I started watching Tina Fey's new show, 'The Four Seasons'. I liked it, um. That's it. I was also eating some fries while doing so if that...even...matters. It was chili barbeque and sour cream flavored. So then I...don't remember what happened next. Probably because I spend lots of my time playing this game called 'Style Queen'. It's addictive, I'm an award winning model-actress-singer and my boyfriend is cupid. I must've blacked out while playing that game. Oh, I remember now, I rewatched an episode of She-Ra. It was Mer-Mysteries, and when I was reminded of how Aimee Carrero played Elena from EoA, I immediately went to Disney+

So I watched Elena of Avalor. The first episode. Again. Because I've seen it when it was on air, okay? I remember going back to Sofia The First to watch the 3-part crossover. The ending sent chills to my spine. I also found out Chris Parnell was in there, that shook me terribly. I also got inspired to continue my Fayxine worldbuilding. But first, I procrastinated.

I listened to Carly Rae Jepsen's 'Summer Love' on repeat while it rained hard, just thinking about Snake & Girl and the lore of Fayxine. It was amazing. While I was listening to my CRJ playlist, I spent a few minutes on this app called 'Dust Bunny'. You get to grow plants. I named my plants after my characters, so far I have Plant Shelby, Plant Lis, Plant Yuna, Plant Neil, Plant Liza, Plant Elaine, Plant Gregory, Plant Narci and Plant Suzy. So when i finally decided to focus on creating the map for Fayxine, I finally took out my binder and sketched things out.

Soooo here are some fun facts here. I also really hope that all of these names don't mean anything bad in another language. That would be embarrassing.

Venur De Cara comes from vena cava. The largest vein. From what I heard. Aortiare comes from Aorta and Ventriciline comes from ventricle.

Hartvurne comes from heartburn. I might have to change that because it feels like a mean joke. Basically, Hartvurne (formerly Hartelle) originally belonged to Aphenus before the 18th century came where Flamesia came in and was like "that's actually ours". They ended up winning and now it's Hartvurne as if to fork with Edie.

Yuldura comes from the turkish work, Yıldız. Talara comes from the tagalog word, Tala. Etalle comes from the french word, Etoile.

Emeryl is a combination between Emerald and Beryl.

Vultishe is a distorted spelling of voltage.

Bettspleirenas comes from the Betta Fish's scientific name.

Perihelis comes from perihelion, Sticia's from the last letters of Solstice

A lot of Glacia's names are just made up.

Va Cynthelle comes from 'Cynthia'.

Artella = Artemis.

Yureloune is a village in Crystahlea in the province of Vivali. It is in a very small and secluded area, hence the name Yureloune. As if to say "You're lonely".

So as you can see, I put lots of thought into Fayxine. Which is why it gives me a terrible migraine. I was watching some Parks & Recs compilations while working on it too, it cured me of my migraine. #parks&recsisthecuretomysuffering.

Not much happens, I listened to Katy Perry's old songs. (Simple, Long Shot, Diamonds). Even this video of her on a tour from 2001. It was nice. I proceeded to sing to some Suzanne Vega songs, Björk, some Siouxsie and The Banshees, even the Thompson Twins. I then ate dinner. It was my least favorite food, nilaga. Atleast there was corn.

I took a bath...then I got really bored. Oh yeah, I started having this weird headache throughout the day and I would always feel like my vision's getting...I don't know, it's like my vision wants to stare at the sun. It's in need of something bright. I would also, occassionally start to question things to myself like, "Is life real? Is what I am experiencing right now real?" And then my vision would start getting more weirder. I don't know what's up with that. Anyway. I ended up lying down, eyes closed, while hugging a giant pencil in my arms while ARTMS' newest song, 'Burn' plays. Later on, I decided to read 'Chicken Soup for the Soul' while listening to Carly's Tug of War and now we're here.

-Signing off, Julie
