Mood: Relaxed Listening To: From Under The Cork Tree - Fall Out Boy Watching: yt stuff Eating: peanuts Drinking: arizonaaa
Hey hey! :D This past Sunday (9/25) was my birthday, and it was a good one! Things have been pretty stressful lately, with moving and my mystery balance issues trending worse... So going to my-friend-who-likes-mh's house to celebrate was a break I really appreciated ^_^
I'll start with fun stuff: he got me From Under The Cork Tree! :D I've been looking for the Black Clouds and Underdogs edition of this for forever and never got around to getting one. I always feel like I'm rly hard to buy gifts for... And that's probably because I know how picky I can be and particular I am when I get things for myself. But I'm clearly not giving my friends enough credit, they always get me the coolest stuff >u< Another friendo got me cool candy from Germany, and my bff, who always gets the best gifts, is planning on sending something when she gets the chance. Gift giving is one of my top love languages and with everything going on this really means a lot to me. Especially since my bday has been overshadowed by bad stuff for the past couple years... >_<||| I really appreciated this year being different ^^
As I said earlier I spent time at my-friend-who-likes-mh's house to celebrate ^^ I originally wanted to go somewhere (probably the bookstore lets be real xD) and wear a coord (bc I legit don't remember the last time I dressed up... feelsbadman), but we ended up staying in and just... Hanging out doing whatever. And honestly? That was probably the right decision. I feel like I haven't genuinely relaxed in so long Dx And this was probably the last time we'll have time together like this for a while. As much as we don't rlydoanything, simply spending time together means a lot to me. The past year has been really difficult for me (on top of living in a pandemic >_<), and I genuinely don't know what I'd be doing right now without him~He's been so compassionate and generous, and always makes it a priority to make sure I'm doing okay. I could go on forever XD but I'm hoping things will look up soon. Even tho it's taking forever I am moving out, and I think I'll be doing better once everything goes back to normal after that.
Thx for reading as always :P I hope that by my next blog post, all of this will be behing me and have more energy to update things. And maybe I'll name my friends...? I've been thinking abt it for a while bc it is kind of annoying having to type around it lol
(@Beck since fp won't let me reply directly Dx) it should be! they didn't get rid of the core site functionality, just a lot of fun extras afaik :/ (Like having custom formatting in ur deviation descriptions, for example)
I know that they put the switcher there to soften the blow but honestly... I think it made it worse? XD Like, congrats now ur showing us in real time what we're giving up... count ur days ig lmao
Especially since the new layout is so... boring???? Like the older dA layout had such a distinct feel... Even with updates over time it was the signature site aesthetic for so long Dx And now it's just a normie site like the rest (;′⌒`) Truly the end of an era
honestlyyy Dx I'm glad for a while they did let you, but... idk at least at the time everybody hated the eventual switch and they did it anyway >_> And they're slowly re-adding certain features but like, idk they shouldnt have changed it lol
thank you, I put a lot of work into it :D tbh I'm surprised more ppl don't take advantage of this... I mean a major feature of fp is the old-internet customization lol
