Weekly dump: Busy

Hello! First I wanted to thank everyone that liked and commented on my first weekly dump! I planned to post another regardless if no one commented but seeing so many people actually reading my post and enjoying it…it made me really emotional. I’ve always felt really small and sometimes even unimportant to people in my life (not to my darling sweet wife but you get what I’m saying) so seeing so many people reading my post and enjoying what I had to say meant a lot to me.

So, why is this post titled busy? Well, I’m busy. Rather, I made myself busy. I have two weeks of school left but I decided to do all my finals this week instead of waiting. As an English major, I’m very fortunate to have final essays as opposed to in person finals, so once the paper is done that’s it. Currently I only have one more essay left!! This semester is my final one and I really wanted to relax before my graduation ceremony! This also gives me time to apply to my masters program without worrying about my current assignments! Honestly this has been the best crunch week I’ve ever had, my writing has come super easily to me and as a result I haven’t been stressed despite the numerous essays I’ve had to write!

That being said…I’ve still made time to take things slow and enjoy my time. I’ve been playing a lot more style savvy than animal crossing, I guess it’s just a bit easier since style savvy is more guided so it keeps my attention a bit longer than acnl (though I still visited my villagers this week don’t worry!) I really love choosing the random hairstyle option and building an outfit around that look!

Earlier this week we also had a sudden thunderstorm! I live in SoCal, literally an hour away from L.A. so it was very scary to suddenly get such a heavy thunderstorm! Thunder kept sounding right outside my house but a little bit before it started, when it was just raining, I went outside and took some photos! I have a tree with a face named Mel and he is my favorite plant. I want a tree in the front yard of the next place I move to so I can give it a face and a new name. Anyways here’s a moody picture of Mel for your enjoyment!

Isn’t he the cutest? I love trees with faces, they’re so delightful. Speaking of delightful, I watched Wolf’s Rain with my gf this week. I watched it all once when I was 14 and since the person I watched it with was a horrible evil woman, I decided I wanted to watch it again with the love of my life. We watched the first six episodes on what I believe may be a bootleg Blu-ray…I would love to get an official copy of it in the future but for now it’s pretty solid aside from the quick advertisement of titlovi.com at the beginning of every episode, honestly I think it adds to the show. I love physical media so even if it’s a bootleg I’m very happy with owning it lol

I can’t believe I graduate in just a few weeks, it feels surreal. I was in a very bad place mentally when I finished high school and started university so I didn’t honestly think I’d make it this far and…now here I am. About to graduate, twenty two years old, dating my dream girl and perusing my passion for writing and libraries despite all the challenges presented to me. I’m really proud I’ve made it this far and I know I’ll only continue to go further and further with time…I was also looking at photos of myself from when I was younger this week. Back when I was 19 I’d look at younger photos and mourn the girl I used to be. Now at twenty two I can’t help but feel differently. I’ve got so much more ahead of me and while my looks may change I think I’m even prettier and more importantly, I’m far more happier now than I was then.

And now, the moment you’ve all been waiting for…my weekly songs + videos!

So I really love goth, new wave, and visual Kei music. However, I think my favorite musician will always be Sheena Ringo. God she’s just incredible. The song I’m about to share is super personal, I have to listen to it once a week with my eyes closed to just let the music engulf me or I have a horrible week. It’s honestly one of the best things I’ve heard ever and I hope that you’ll enjoy it as well! I still can’t fucking believe she wrote this song at 16 like holy shit she was and still is such an incredible creative.

Next song is Stray, the intro to Wolfs Rain!!! I really love the sound of this one and wanted to highlight it cause I forgot how good it was till I started rewatching the show.

And finally, video of the week! As an English literature major, I’m very interested in looking into the factors of what makes a text good or bad. I believe that a majority of the time it’s preference that determines if you like a text or find it horrible. I love Slow Damage and Towa but I think A Certain Hunger and its protagonist are insufferable in comparison. However, the actual text is a good indicator of a texts quality. When looking at creepypastas, often people consider the plot to be bad but I think the writing is much worse than the plot. That’s because for a lot of young writers, creepypasta was their first entryway into the world of writing original stories. As such, when I saw a literary analysis of Jeff the Killer recommended to me on YouTube I got HYPED. And the video delivered, for once someone wasn’t making fun of the story but rather highlighting the awkward writing of the work.

Imagine this

nrc confessions board where theres this online space you can anonymously post confessions into

one day someone posts like "to that one magicless student in 1-A, you're kinda cute i like you/have a crush on u" or something

then everyone except yuu sees that starts freaking out

a bunch of ppl trying to find out who this mf is (its a mob/npc)

and at one point ace comments "STAY AWAY FROM THEM GET A JOB"

the poor guy probably gets doxxed at one point. it got so out of hand that they had to close the confessions board lmao

as for how my yuu reacts to this:

yuhei doesn't look at the confessions that much so he wont know until someone tells him about it like "hey did you see the confessions? someone was talking about you" then when yuhei sees it he would just brush it off lmao

he DOES notice ace's "STAY AWAY FROM HIM GET A JOB" comment tho

he would tease ace about it for sure but its more like "bro why are you getting so heated over this?"

then he sees the rest of the comments doxxing the poor guy and he's just baffled like "?????? ITS NOT THAT SERIOUS??? WHY ARE WE DOXXING THEM 😭"

Finally finished my most ambitious Hatchetfield project yet. Every box in the border represents a different Nightmare Time, as well as Hey Melissa, Trail to Oregon, Workin’ Boys, the BBQ monologues and Peanuts the Hatchetfield Pocket Squirrel. The three large boxes at the bottom represent the three main musicals. It’s 18x24” and made with sharpie :]
