on being 11th for 2nd eliminations: ‘in the past, my life plan was that after graduating from university, i’d find a stable job and live a nine-to-five life. and i used to fantasize that in my future i’d be able to find a wife early, drive a car to bring her travelling, we can listen to some music and lift our heads to see the stars’

✨Life With You✨ [7]
Pairing: Andy Barber x Reader Warnings: 18+ SMUT / Swearing / Mild Angst Word Count: 1.1k A/N: Told you I would get carried away with the smut😂 Please reblog and like🖤
 ♡ Series Masterlist
Evening Standard
It’s half an hour later when you hear Andy breath a sigh of relief as he walks into the bedroom. Giving him a brisk sideways glance from your place in front of the mirror, you continue with your skincare routine. No words are exchanged whilst you finish getting ready for bed, nor when Andy joins you in the bathroom.
Leaving Andy in the bathroom, you climb into bed, switching on your bedside lamp for reading. You pick up your book and immerse yourself into the pages, trying to find a sweet escape from what feels like a hostile environment in your bedroom.
Engrossed in your book, you barely acknowledge Andy climbing into bed next to you until he speaks to you. 
“I’m sorry about tonight honey.” 
You want to be resentful towards him but he sounds so defeated, so insecure. 
Setting your book down softly in your lap, you lean over, pressing a firm kiss to his cheek; silent proof that you’ve accepted his apology. You get straight back to reading, not wanting to dwell on the subject for too long. 
Fidgeting around lightly in bed to get more comfortable as you lean back against the headboard, your spaghetti strap on your satin slip dress falls down your shoulder. You flinch mildly as Andy slides it back up your arm and onto your shoulder, not expecting him to have been watching you to notice it fall in the first place. You glance over at him to thank him, halted by the look of desire on his face. 
“Put the book down angel.” 
The swell of arousal pools in your stomach but your mind has a contrasting perception. You know Andy must be tired and your anxiety screams that he is trying for a pity fuck, simply feeling guilty for neglecting you.
Sex before bed is normal for you and Andy because it’s typically your only remaining time in the day together during the week. Both with heightened sex drives, you always jump at the opportunity. Intimate, sleepy fucks feel like your speciality at this point. However, when Andy has spent the evening working, it’s quashed; either you are usually asleep by the time he gets to bed or he is falling asleep before his head even hits the pillow. You realise that makes you sound like a trite, old married couple. 
“I said, put the book down angel”, his words are more rough this time. 
“Andy, it’s fine, we don’t have to. You must be tired." You sneer, unintentionally. 
Turning back to your book, you don’t pay much more attention to the dispute before Andy is pulling the book from your grasp and out of your reach. Leaning back over, he grasps your face in his large hand, staring deep into your eyes with a look of determination on his face. 
“We got interrupted early and I didn’t get to satisfy my wife, and I always satisfy my wife”, he growls before pulling you straight into a heated kiss. As he pulls away, tugging on your bottom, you’re hooked; thrilled by his words.
“Andy..”, you pant before pushing him back and climbing on top of him, straddling his waist as he leans back against your headboard. 
Clothes are stripped from you both, filthy words exchanged as Andy pulls you down onto his cock roughly, an outcry of pleasure leaving your mouth. 
Andy has a tight grip in your hair, forcing you to look him in the eyes as he thrusts up into you. Mouth ajar, deep pants and moans fall from your lips as your eyes start to flutter closed from the pleasure. 
“Keep your eyes on me angel. Wanna see how desperate you’ve been for me all day!”
Andy’s unoccupied hand squeezes at your breast, teasing your nipple as his eyes bore into yours. Considering this is a quick, ‘get it out of your system’ fuck before bed, it feels so deep and intimate. You can’t bare to look away from him, his lust paraded over his face. As one of your hands grips his shoulder, the other traces his lips with your thumb in between kissing him sloppily. Meeting his thrusts with your own bounces, your pleasure magnifies more than usual. 
“Andy, please, I need -”, your words are cut off by your chokes of bliss as Andy's hand trails down your body, finding it's way to your clit easily. He knows exactly what you need. 
“I know what you need angel. My good girl, asking so nicely to cum.” His words only fuel the fire coursing through your body and from then on, it’s messy and desperate. 
Both your arms fling around Andy’s neck, hands running through his hair and gripping tightly as he hits your g-spot. Andy keeps a dominant grip in your hair, controlling your movements as he brings your lips crashing down onto his whilst his other hand continues its onslaught on your clit. His thrusts don’t get faster but they gets harder, deeper as your legs begin to tremble. Andy pulls your head back harshly from your kiss, evidently knowing you’re close. 
“Look at me angel. Look at me as I make you cum all over my cock. That's it, good girl!” Andy undoubtedly can feel you before you even start cumming, and then it hits you. The euphoria of his cock consistently brushing against your spot as you clench around him is intoxicating, the jolts of sharp pleasure resonating deep within your stomach almost violent. Your eyes roll back in your head as Andy thrusts through your orgasm, searching for his own. 
You slump against his body as he erupts inside of you, his groans muffled by your neck as you support each other, weakened from the pleasure. 
Minutes pass as you both sit there, connected, revelling in the intimacy and familiarity of the moment. Afraid to break the contact, you squeeze Andy a little tighter. 
Eventually, Andy manages to stand up, holding you tight to him as he walks through to the en-suite. Perching you on the bathroom side, he pulls out gently and wets a cloth. Leaning down, he sensually kisses up your right leg before swiping the warm fabric softly through your core, then cleaning himself up. 
Neither of you bothering to re-dress into your pyjamas, too caught up in the intimacy of sleeping naked, you slip back into bed. As you cuddle into Andy, arm settled across his chest, he vocalises what you’ve been too afraid to address the whole evening. 
“I love you Y/N, and I really am sorry about tonight -”, his fingers start nervously tracing patterns across your shoulder, “- I’m sorry every time it happens. You are my number one priority and you always will be. You’re my wife and you mean more to me than any case or client, always.” 
You lean up and give him one last passionate kiss, "I love you too Andy." 
You keep it short and sweet, wanting to forget the situation all together. Cuddled into Andy’s side, comforted by his words, you drift off to sleep. 
Next: Are You Sure It’s The Weekend?

Serandy and Olifael fanfic (SerenaXAndy and OlivierXRafael) part 1
Okay. I did it. I wrote it. But at what cost?
⚠️Warning⚠️ it's a stupid joke fic so read at your own risk. I don't take responsibility for what I've done. Deal with it 😂
------------------------------------
Andy looked at her phone and sighed again for the bazillionth time of the day. She was sitting with Alita in the garden, the young artist wanted to draw flowers. Or more accurately: she absolutely needed to for Mr. Boss's class. The topic this time around was "nature." And Alita wasn't really fond of... drawing grass and trees and whatnot, so she asked Andy to accompany her.
"You're thinking about Serena again, aren't you? When are you going to tell her?"
Andy had a crush on Serena since their first year in Arlington, they were seniors now and yet Andy couldn't gather the courage to confess her feelings.
"What's the point? Serena already has a boyfriend... Wait! How did you know I was thinking about her?!"
Alita gestured towards Andy's phone, the locksreen was a picture of the both of them. Serena and Andy smiling side by side.
"Oh... I see. I've been staring at it this whole time, haven't I?"
"Yup."
Honestly Alita didn't understand why Andy was having this much trouble telling Serena. They were friends for almost 3 years now, Serena wouldn't suddenly cut Andy out of her life just because of something like that. Alita was someone really direct, borderline shameless. Last year she photoshopped a picture of Alistair and... added maybe too much body hair to it, making him look like a werewolf. The picture made the rounds in the athletics department and the poor scholarship boy was completely mortified. It was his first year in Arlington too... When asked why she did this, Alita said: "One of my friends has a body hair kink, thought it would make her happy." To this day we still don't know who that friend is. They decided to remain anonymous so it's a mystery.
"It must be so easy for you Alita, you're not scared of anything."
Alita's hand stopped moving and she looked at Andy from the corner of her eyes. Then she got up from the bench, as if she had something really important to do.
"Well, it's not only about courage. It's also about will. You always say that you're too scared, but really? To me it just sounds like you're making excuses. You're telling yourself that it's okay if you don't tell her because you're not "brave" enough but the truth is that you're running away all the time. It's been almost 3 years now, maybe your resolve is too weak? Are you even certain of your feelings?"
Hearing all of this, Andy's mind was filling up with anger. She stood up, facing Alita.
"Yes, I am sure! Of course I am! It's true that it only started with feelings of admiration but now... now it's different. I love her. However confessing my feelings would be stupid and pointless. Do you even realize what you're saying? What am I supposed to do? Make them have a break-up? Olivier is also my friend, I don't want to be a bother... I'll just wait until..."
Andy looked down, her eyes filling up with tears.
"...Until my feelings go away. It's better this way, I won't lose either of them just because of a crush."
Alita rolled her eyes and gave Andy a tissue from her bag.
"Alright, alright... I'm sorry Andy, don't cry okay? But realistically speaking, I think that you would never lose them because of something like this. I mean, it's not like you can control your feelings. Also..."
Alita looked down at her watch, a feeling of excitement struck her as she saw the time.
"...I have to go! The last episode of that anime I told you about is airing today and I'll finally be able to binge-watch it!"
"Ah... The one from studio Tricker?"
"Yeah, that one! I've been waiting 3 months for all the episodes to air, can you imagine?! Wish it worked like Netflex where they drop all the episodes at the same time instead of once per week... Anyway! Thank you for accompanying me today! Byeeeeee!!!"
Andy stood there in the middle of countless flowers, watching Alita run towards the dorms. Maybe she was right after all? Maybe Andy was worried for nothing.
[At the same time in another place.]
Finn blinked a few times, dumbfounded by what he just heard.
"Come again?"
Rafael gulped.
"I... I like Olivier... I think."
Finn looked back at his computer and kept on editing a video he's been working on for a while now.
"Huh. Didn't see that coming. Well uh, good luck? I mean, I'm not sure what I'm supposed to say here. Olivier already has a girlfriend, right?"
Rafael hung his head low and sighed in despair.
"Well that's the thing. What am I supposed to do? Bury my feelings? Last year I had a crush on Andy and now it's Olivier... I always develop feelings for my best friends."
Finn furrowed his eyebrows in worry. Then he sympathetically looked at Ralf, trying to be reassuring.
"But you know, I think that catching feelings for friends is better than falling for people you're not close with. At least you know your friends well enough and you know what you're getting into if you start dating them... But uh. Yeah. Sounds like it kinda sucks to be you right now."
"Yeah, no kidding..."
Last year Rafael tried to confess his feelings for Andy but right before he could, she admitted that she had a crush on Serena... Little did Ralf now that next year he'll fall for Serena's boyfriend.
"By the way, I'm a little curious: why do you like him? I mean, Olivier is cool and all but he's also kind of cold, isn't he?"
Rafael raised his head in utter disbelief.
"What?! I think you have the wrong idea, it is true that he can be intimidating when he's working but deep down he's a really good guy. And he's funny too!"
Finn looked like he just heard the most confusing thing in the world. Olivier? Funny? That's 2 words that should never be in the same sentence. But Finn shrugged anyway and got back to business.
"Hm. Alright, whatever floats your boat I guess..."
[Somewhere else at the same time.]
"YOU WHAT?!"
Ariel practically screamed at the top of her lungs while Serena was trying her hardest to stay composed.
"Calm down, okay? Yeah, I'm gonna break-up with Olivier today. I can't bear it anymore."
Ariel looked like she ascended to a new state of bewilderment each time Serena opened her mouth.
"You can't bear Olivier anymore? But... but...?? I don't?? Understand?? You guys always get along. Better than that, you guys are the power couple of Arlington!"
"No, you don't get it. What I can't bear anymore isn't Olivier, it's my feelings for Andy. She's too beautiful and perfect to be single. Everyone around her is so blind and I have to change that."
"...Wait a sec, I think I need to sit down."
Ariel sat down.
"Ariel, we're in the middle of a hallway."
"I don't think you understand how much I don't give a shit about that right now..."
Ariel wasn't wrong, Olivier and Serena were seen as "rELaTiOnShIp GoALs" by the whole school. And if not by the whole school then *almost* by the whole school. Serena had to think long and hard to make this decision, they had an image to uphold after all. But was it worth it? Right now, Andy was more important to Serena than anything else. Olivier was a good guy definitely, but he was also kinda weird. He always wears a cat mask with galaxy sunglasses for some reason. And he doesn't respect the Arlington dress code even though he used to be the student body president before Tadashi. He wears a black suit and a black tie, because of that a bunch of students jokingly call him the "space cat businessman." Maybe this strange appearance is a weird way for him to rebel against the whole school for not voting for him in the elections.
"Serena, why did you tell me this? What good is there in sharing that with me?"
Serena bends down to match Ariel's height and displays a sad smile on her face.
"Because I'll need your emotional support if something goes wrong."
At those words, Ariel stood up and brushed her butt with her hands to clean off the dust.
"Gotcha. I'll do my best... I'll go find a good show to binge-watch on Netflex and some delicious ice cream just in case you get a heartbreak if Andy rejects you after you dump Olivier."
Serena cringed.
"You didn't need to put it that way... But thanks, I guess."
[In another hallway at the same time.]
Today Olivier had two things to do. One, garner some info about a missing student: Nari. And two: break-up with Serena. His feelings for Rafael had grown to be too strong. He thought that he could get past them but he was wrong. He couldn't ignore them anymore. The cute coder from the pure and applied sciences department had caught his heart. Anyway, before that he had to get past step one: gather info about the disappearance of Nari. Olivier was making rounds in the school, trying to find the people who knew Nari. Or at least had heard something.
The first person Olivier talked to was Layelle... as she was carrying some weird materials to the dorms.
"What is this for? You're not about to do something dangerous, are you?"
Layelle's eyes widened in surprise but a couple of seconds later she laughed at Olivier's seriousness.
"Geez, don't worry ex-president. It's just for my skincare routine, I'm about to go help Tyler with his too."
Honestly, Olivier didn't really understand the use of a skincare routine since he always wore a mask anyway. Besides that though, this wasn't the reason why he stopped her.
"Okay, whatever. Layelle, you know who Nari is right? Have you heard of her recently?"
Layelle's gaze dropped down on the floor, Nari was one her classmates but she had suddenly disappeared a couple of months ago.
"Well, no. Unfortunately I don't think that I can help you. She was a real chatterbox so even if I wasn't in her friend group I heard a lot about her. We got along but we were mostly acquaintances rather than close friends. Sorry."
"No, no problem. Thank you for your time."
Layelle looked at the clock on the wall and gasped. Thankfully, there's clocks everywhere in Arlington so it's hard to lose one's sense of time but it's still possible.
"Shoot! I have to hurry and meet Tyler! Also, I have a birth chart reading livestream afterwards so uh. Bye Olivier!"
After this encounter, Olivier then checked all classrooms and found Daisy sitting on a table with a laptop.
"Hey, you know that you can't do that, right?"
Daisy didn't even bother looking up from her PC and answered.
"You do know that you're not the president anymore, right? No need to check up on us and boss us around."
Someone who doesn't know Daisy might think that she was trying to be witty, but thankfully Olivier knew that she was mostly teasing him. Well... it is true that he was still a little sensitive about the fact that he got his place stolen from him by someone younger and less experienced.
"Okay... Thank you for the warm greeting Daisy, as always. In any case, have you heard of Nari recently?"
This time around, Daisy looked up.
"Oh... well, not really. All I know is that she had some urgent stuff to take care of so she hasn't been coming to school for the past few months but I don't know the details."
Olivier nodded and curiously peeked at the screen of Daisy's laptop.
"Vine compilations."
"Huh?"
"I'm making vine compilations. And please don't tell me that it's a waste of my time, I already know you're thinking that really hard so no need to say it."
"Oh... Okay."
If Serena was there she would say "well, at least it's not TikTak compilations" and she's not wrong. Olivier internally laughed at the thought and kept on searching the school. The next person he came across is Reckless. She was talking with a student while shuffling some cards.
"Reckless, do you have a moment?"
"Uhh... as you can see I'm about to do a tarot reading for this lovely customer here but I haven't started... yet. So make it quick if possible."
Tarot cards? Olivier didn't really believe in that kind of thing, it also annoyed him that everytime he said he doesn't believe in astrology and tarot readings people would always say: "Oh, makes sense. You're a sun virgo haha." But anyway, that's not the point here.
"Have you heard anything about Nari? We haven't been able to contact her for a couple of weeks now. And when I say 'we' I mean the whole school."
"Ah, Nari huh? Well I've certainly heard of her but I've never met her. I don't think I can help, sorry... Oh! But if you want to I can do a tarot reading to see how she's doing! It will only cost you-"
"Okay. Cool. Thanks. And no thank you, I've only done tarot readings when Serena forced me to."
Olivier walked away instantly and he quickly found his next target: Trashy. Like Layelle she was carrying some... questionable objects.
"Is this for a skincare routine?"
"AAH!"
Trashy screamed. To be honest she was really scared of Olivier, since he was student body president before Tadashi, Trashy got herself in a lot of trouble because of her chaotic nature.
"Huh?! Uh. Well... Um..."
Trashy looked down at what she was carrying: 2 bottles of cola, one pack of mentos, some gasoline and fireworks.
"O-oh! Yeah! Skincare routine, totally! Gotta help Layelle y'know?"
Olivier harshly looked down at Trashy.
"I was kidding, it's obvious that it's not for some skincare routine. I'm not dumb Trashy. If you pull off again what you did last year I swear to god-"
"Eek! A-alright! I know it looks suspicious but I'm not gonna do anything dangerous with it, I promise! It's for research and science purposes."
Olivier still didn't believe her but decided to let it go... for now.
"Well, I'm not here to scold you so calm down okay? I wanted to ask you: do you know anything about Nari? Have you been in contact with her recently?"
Trashy tried her best to calm down but her arms were trembling under all the weight she was carrying.
"From what I know Nari has left the country. She had to fly back to Egypt for some important business but no one knows when she'll come back, so um..."
Trashy's legs started trembling too.
"C-can I go now? Please...?"
Olivier nodded and Trashy ran away from him. She was scared out of her mind of Olivier. She found him to be ruthless and terrifying... despite the fact that he was wearing a cute cat mask at all times. She couldn't even see his face so how was she supposed to know what he's thinking or in what kind of mood he is?? Thankfully she made it out alive of this one. Any person who saw her would assume that she's about to commit arson.
After that, Olivier kept on searching for more info. As he reached the entrance of the building again, ready to make another round, he saw an unusual scene: Huli and Irwins pulling on Tegan's arms.
"I like him better!"
"No way! I'm slav like Tegan so I like him better than you!"
"What does being slav have anything to do with liking someone?!"
Irwins laughed like a cartoon villain.
"Well, since you're not slav I don't expect you to understand!"
Tegan was blushing really hard and looked like he was about to die from being pulled that hard from both sides. Olivier was about to help him but Tadashi ran to the rescue faster. Thankfully he was able to resolve it all. Somehow the whole thing ended with Huli and Irwins apologizing to eachother and saying that they love eachother. They started... dating? Then a student named Lissie appeared out of nowhere and hugged the both of them. It seems like they're all in a polygamous relationship? It was so confusing. In any case, Olivier kept on going and going until he saw a girl dressed in a pom pom girl outfit. Oh... it was Hollen. Capitain of the Alistair fanclub... She was watching him from afar, admiring him while drooling. You could hear her creepily mutter: "Muscles... hehehe..." Hollen isn't a bad person but when it comes to Alistair... Oh boy is she thirsty. Olivier tried his best to turn a blind eye to the scene and kept going. Later on he came across Forest, she had her camera on and was talking to it quite enthusiastically.
"Hey guys! I got a permission from Lady A to film the inside of the school! Of course, there are some places that will be off-limits but I'll be able to show you guys a big chunk of Arlington! And-"
Forest caught Olivier staring almost immediately and pointed the camera towards him. Oh no.
"Hey Olivier! This here is the famous ex-student body president of Arlington! Say hi!"
"I don't want to appear on ViewTube, cut that part out entirely. Wouldn't it be better to go back to doing playthroughs instead of silly vlogs?"
"Geez alright. You don't gotta be so cold..."
Forest was the most famous Viewtuber in Arlington, there was a few other students who were trying to make it big but they couldn't get close to Forest's subscriber count. She was from an ordinary family but thanks to all the money she made with Viewtube, she was able to get enrolled as a regular student would: without the need of a scholarship.

disclaimer I’ll be taking into account the last 24 hours for the first part because it’s 3 in the morning and I haven’t really done anything yet lmao anywho
survey by chasingghosts
Have you today?
Looked in a mirror? Yeah I took a shower earlier so I couldn’t really avoid the mirror in the bathroom.
Watered a plant? I don’t do plants. Can never take care of them to save my life.
Worn denim? I did, actually. Some package came for me earlier today and I didn’t really look the most decent, so before heading out to meet the delivery guy I grabbed the first jacket I saw, which was denim.
Washed your hair? Yes, when I took said shower a couple of hours ago.
Been in pain? Yup my back and shoulders feel like hell from sitting on my ass all day while at work.
Had a nap? Kinda, I guess? I fell asleep at around 9, 9:30ish...woke up at around 1 AM, and here I am now. I don’t plan on sleeping anymore.
Brushed your teeth? Yup.
Kissed someone? Just my dogs.
Used a cheese grater? No, I don’t think I’ve consumed any cheese today either.
Eaten something sweet? Nah, it’s all been salty/savory for me today.
Spoken to a stranger? Sure.
Dropped something? I drop my vape pen at least once a day, so yes.
Felt upset in some way? UGH yeah. Our internet disappeared at around 2 in the afternoon and it still hasn’t come back, and our service provider’s social media has been unsurprisingly unresponsive and useless. I’ve been using data since then and I’m just worried about how long this would take because I don’t want to keep spending just for extra load. I also have my Korean language classes this afternoon which will for sure require a lot of data :/
Drank coffee? I have a full mug of it beside me right now.
Walked for more than thirty minutes? LOL no, I’ve only stayed indoors.
Signed up for something? Hmm I don’t think so.
Travelled in a car? See two answers above this.
Opened a can? Nopes.
Thought about doing something crazy? Just me thinking about dropping another couple thousands on merch until I mentally slapped myself and told myself I’d be fucking stupid if I spent on one more piece of stupid merch.
Listened to a new song? Yes, I tried listening to Love Shot by EXO over dinner since my sister had started humming it. It was okay but I quickly shifted back to BTS right after hahaha.
Written in a notebook? No. I only do so when I practice my Hangul but I have yet to work on that today.
Fed an animal? Yes, I have pets.
Checked your emails? I mean that’s kind of the standard in my job lol I have my Gmail tab up throughout the 8 hours.
Told someone you love them? No.
Made a phone call? No, I’m rarely the one who makes the call.
Have you in the last week?
Travelled on a bus? I’ve never ridden a bus solely for commuting by myself. I’ve only been on them when it’s the arranged vehicle, like for school field trips or our family vacations. Our public buses are quite bleck and unsanitary and the drivers maneuver the buses like it’s their last goddamn hour on the planet, so I don’t get on them myself.
Washed your face? I mean yeah, when I take showers. I don’t really have a skincare routine though, if that’s what you mean.
Used a blender? We rarely have a use for a blender at home so we don’t even have one.
Received a phone call? No. My biggest pet peeve is when delivery riders call me up once they’ve arrived at our place just to say “I’m here,” but fortunately the one assigned to me today to deliver my package knew how to use the doorbell.
Talked to someone you dislike? Yeah I have to deal with a client I absolutely fucking despise everyday.
Consumed alcohol? I’ve thought of it, but then I thought of how sleepy I get whenever I drink alcohol and decided against it because I wanted to stay up tonight.
Eaten pasta? Yeah, my dad made Filipino-style spaghetti for dinner the other evening.
Planned for an event? Not an event per se but sure, I made some plans? Punk is slated to make his debut on AEW/return to pro wrestling next weekend or sometime soon, idrk - and this is a big fucking deal omg, 15 year old Robyn has arisen from her grave - and Andi and I made plans to watch it together so we can freak the fuck out.
Asked someone for a favour? Yes. I borrowed cash from my mom since the delivery fee for my packaging earlier was apparently cash on delivery.
Watched something funny? I mean I watch BTS clips pretty much everyday and a gigantic chunk of them are hilarious.
Trimmed your nails? No, but I did bite on them multiple times.
Browsed Reddit? I did actually! After a super long time of not doing so...I just decided to randomly check out r/bangtan to see what’s going on there. It’s mostly Americans though so idk if I’ll make a habit out of browsing.
Talked to yourself? Oh this happens a few times a day.
Purchased tickets for something? Nope.
Felt like you were annoying someone? Just about everyday.
Cleaned a toilet? I have not.
Reminisced about the past? Not really. I’ve made references to the past with friends, but we didn’t ~reminisce.
Used headphones? Yeah I always use my headphones when playing Rhythm Hive so I can hear the beats better.
Laughed with a friend? Many times. Always just virtually, though.
Cooked dinner and then didn't feel hungry? I don’t cook.
Written a list? LOL yes. My period had been coming and I noticed I was crying over the smallest, stupid things, so I started a list of the things I cried over the last week. The funniest item on the list is probably an ad that was shown to us during a campaign briefing...
Played an instrument? Nope.
Felt jealous or envious? I will sometimes feel the tiniest tinge of envy and wistfulness when I see my friends in happy and fulfilled relationships, but it passes in a second.
Ignored a text message on purpose? So many hahahahahahah
Congratulated someone? Yes!!! Graduation season was last week so I congratulated a shit ton of friends.
Have you in the last month?
Made a piece of art? Making art was never made for me, so no.
Rewatched one of your favourite tv shows or movies? Yep, I rewatched Friends a couple of weeks ago.
Called a plumber? Nope.

Finished a book? I haven’t done that in a while.
Had a crush on someone? Just celebrities but I won’t count those.
Travelled on a train? I haven’t.
Worn heels? Haven’t done this either.
Been to a friend's house? I’ve been to Angela’s house semi-regularly, yup.
Shared a bed with someone? Nah.
Been to see a movie at the cinema? I haven’t been to the cinema in like a year and a half.
Paid attention to celebrity drama? Erm not really. I also haven’t been up to date with that, especially with American celebrities hahaha.
Felt anxious? Maybe not anxious but nervous.
Taken an elevator? Yeah in Mega since that place is so goddamn big.
Given someone the cold shoulder? Yep, my mom when she is being extra annoying/condescending.
Purchased a new book/game/movie? I guess you can say that? I bought a subscription pack on Rhythm Hive because I was using it regularly anyway.
Applied for a job? I already have a job, so no. I did get a job proposal on Linkedin a couple of weeks ago with another PR firm, but I took a look at their clients just to see if the offer was something I could sink my teeth into - and even though their brands were quite high-profile, they were in industries I didn’t particularly find interesting.
Used a printer? Nah.
Had lunch in a park? No.
Gotten a manicure or pedicure? I have not.
Made an appointment? Just for my shot but that’s it.
Had a blood test done? Noooooo not another one of those plz.
Suffered from a major bruise? Not a major bruise but a huge bloody gash on my thigh after a particlarly rowdy play session with Cooper. There’s still a very visible scar on me.
Researched a topic in-depth? I do this quite a bit in my work, yes.
Have you in the last year?
Been to the beach? No, I’ve mostly stayed at home since July 2020.

Worn a costume? Sure, for Halloween last year I went as Dora.
Been thrift shopping? Not that I can recall, no.
Thought about getting pregnant or got pregnant? Definitely not at this point in my life.
Made a big life decision? Uh yeah this past year was both the worst and best rollercoaster I’ve ever been on. I can’t believe it’s almost been a year since that shitty breakup...
Changed a lightbulb? Nope.
Framed something and put it on your wall? No but I have been meaning to do this for months. I just never get around to buying some actual picture frames lol.
Been stargazing? Not the professional kind of way with a telescope and all. I’ve just lied on my back at the rooftop to gaze at the night sky and the stars.
Made a new friend? So many!!! Reena is probably my bestestestest new friend <3 I mean we’ve met a while ago, as Angela’s mutual - even had a few drinks or so together - but we didn’t become closer until just a couple of months ago.
Added to a collection? I’ve had merch that arrive every week or so these days because I bought a ridiculous amount of shit between May and June when I was a new Army. I’ve substantially calmed down now, but I should expect to receive my running list of ordered merch up until September LMAO. At first I used to bitch about the really long shipping period considering all the products come from Korea, but after 3 or 4 fulfilled orders you kinda get used to it.
Been to the dentist? No.
Broken up with someone? Yessss. I didn’t know it at the time but it would turn out to be one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

Purchased something worth over a grand? So in US dollar conversion, around P50,000? Hell no.
