Day 202.

I’ve dealt with a lot of pain and discomfort today. I did my best to have a good day. 🙂

It’s been 7 months since my last dental visit. It was so nice to see my student dentist and catch up. Overall, my teeth are looking much better! I had to deal with the probing part this afternoon. It hurt, but I got through it. My cleaning was also done manually. All the other tools must be cleared by COVID-19 protocol. A lot has changed, but I’m adapting! After my appointment, I decided to treat myself to another PSL. 🎃

I’ve just been listening to the same music for the last week. It’s been a week since my heart was broken. I’m still healing and giving myself the time to process. 😭💔 I was on Bumble for a bit before I went to sleep last night and I had to deactivate my profile again. I’m still hurting. 😔

Animal Crossing update: My new art piece is now in my museum. Label was in town. Bud is moving out and Vivian is moving in. It’s spooky season starting tomorrow. I’m excited for all the orange!!

Postseason baseball wasn’t the best today. The Twins were eliminated. 😞 I still have a bunch of other teams to root for. BEAT LA!!!! 🖤🧡

I just feel like crap today. I’m hoping I feel better tomorrow. 💜

Take care, y’all! Farewell to you, September.

Good night.

Day 198.

Happy Saturday! It’s been a sad day. I found out this morning that our uncle passed away suddenly. 😭💔 He was so kind. RIP Tito Rino. 🤍

A death always puts everything into perspective. It’s a wake up call! I need to do more with my time. I need to stop wasting the day. This year has been super tough for everyone, but I’d like to believe there’s a silver lining after all of this. There has to be.

I played my uke and dedicated Somewhere Over the Rainbow to my uncle. Fly high!! 🌈

The Giants are in control of their destiny. They were handed a loss. Not sure what tomorrow will bring. It’s win or go home. Go Giants! 🖤🧡

Animal Crossing update: The final Bug-Off event of the year happened today. I did pretty well for myself. I redeemed my points for a spider plate door decor. Perfect for the fall and Halloween!!

I finally got a workout in. This week has been heavy, but I’m slowly getting back on the horse. Work will be resuming shortly. There’s a lot to do before then. Just breathe.

We ordered Hahn’s Hibachi for lunch. Brings back so many memories! I got my usual, bbq chicken with rice. I’ll finish the last of it tomorrow.

Lastly, I wanna say Happy Birthday to my cousin, Ryan! 🥳🥰🎂

Well, I hope y’all had a nice one. Take care!

Good night.

Day 197.

TGIF! It’s been a ride for me this week. I think I’m slowly returning to myself. Currently listening to A*Teens – Firefly. ❤️

I’ve gotta take care of all of this work stuff. I might be back in two weeks! It’s pretty wild. 😱 I’m ready to get back to it. It’ll be very different, but I need routine in my life. I’m ready to drive!!

Had Shake Shack for lunch. It was delicious! Didn’t get my usual. I kinda wish I did. Cheese fries always make me happy. 🙂

I’ve skipped out on exercising for the last few days. Time to buckle down and get back to doing it! I miss it honestly.

The Giants have control of their destiny. We won 1/2 today. Not a fan of Coonrod. Ughhh….our bullpen hasn’t been super reliable either. I don’t know how to feel about the postseason. We either get in or we don’t. 2 games remaining. Go Giants! 🖤🧡

Animal Crossing update: bought a green Victorian dress. Mom helped me pick it out. Paid some of my new loan off. Sold my turnips. It was a good day!

I’m hungry. I napped for a bit. I think we have cookies here. Must eat dinner first.

Enjoy the weekend! Take care.

Good night.

Day 196.

Happy Thursday! 💗 I’m feeling okay today. Up and down really. We got to chat for a bit via text. It’s not so scary anymore.

My treat for the day: Matcha Cafe Maiko. I ordered the vanilla-matcha swirl topped with boba! So delicious. 😋

Watched the Giants game. Hoping they would’ve won, but they blew it. 💔 Idk about the postseason. We’ll see.

Animal Crossing update: Celeste stopped by! I got a new DIY recipe from her. Libra scales. So cool. I bought a cacao plant too. My island is still a mess. I’ll fix it when I make time.

Watched the Nuggets game. That was frustrating. 😔 They’re down 3-1. Hoping for a win the next time they play.

I put on some eye makeup today. The eyeshadow I’ve been waiting for was finally delivered. 👁 Love it!!

Lastly, I watched Cinderella, the 2015 version before bed. I really liked it! 🤍

Hope y’all had a nice one. Take care!

Good night.

Day 195.

Still feeling crappy, but I’m doing my best. 💜💪🏼💜 Angry about the Breonna Taylor news. Absolutely disgusting. Black Lives Matter! 🖤

I slept in. I stayed up watching The Outsiders before bed. Ralph Macchio! My childhood crush. 🥰 Still love him to this day. Might look into watching Cobra Kai.

Indian food for lunch! I love the garlic naan and chicken tikka masala. I ordered a mango lassi too. Everything was delicious!!

Animal Crossing update: I forgot I expanded my house. Got a new loan to pay off, but I now have a room upstairs! Thinking of making that room my bedroom. We’ll see.

Renewed my domain and WP plan. Yay! More blog entries to come.

Watched Remember the Titans this afternoon. One of my favorite Disney movies. Denzel is so good!!! The cast is great and so is the music. ❤️

Giants win! Keeping my fingers crossed for the last few games. We’ll see how it turns out. Go Giants!! 🖤🧡

I caught up with a good friend via text. She’s been encouraging and helping me through my heartache. The feeling still sucks. 😢

Everything is still a waiting game for work. Hopefully we go back in two weeks. I’m anxious because I need to practice driving before then. Eep! I can do this though. I know I can.

That’s my Wednesday. I hope to be more productive tomorrow. I won’t exercise tonight. Maybe tomorrow? Or Friday?

Good night.

Day 194.

My heart is broken, but it will be mended. I’d like to think I’m getting closer to the person I’m meant to be with eventually. It stings. It sucks. I’m overlooked yet again and it brings me back to my twenties. I sent him a text message for closure and I gained a new friend out of all of this. Will I ever get a happy ending? I don’t know. 😭

It’s exhausting going through the motions of dating. Just once – I’d like someone to finally pick me. That day will come, but for now, I’ll continue waiting. I’ll allow myself to feel my emotions and feelings. I can’t hold that back. It’ll take time.

I got to see my medical team. I missed them so much! I’ve been given the okay to return to work. PPE must be on at all times. I’ll be driving this time around. I got everything done. I’m feeling proud despite my sadness.

Animal Crossing update: I need to check my island. I lost track of time.

I must continue with my TEFL course. No distractions now, ya know? I guess you can say it was a Summer Love. Happy Fall! It’s a new season and I’m ready for the abundance of blessings. 🎃🍂

My crown was tilted. It’ll be affixed again. I’m powerful! 👸🏻👑 Family and friends are uplifting me. Thank you for your love and support. 💗

Hope y’all had a nice one. Take care!

Good night.

Day 189.

Happy Thursday! 🥰 It’s almost the weekend. It’s been okay for me. Got my workout done – go me!

Progress is being made at work. I might be back in two weeks. Part of me is anxious, but the other part of me wants to get back to my old routine. It’s going to be different, but I’m ready. I must be extra careful as my doctors have advised. Productive convo with the boss. He’s always reassuring.

Giants win! They take the series as the visiting team at home versus Seattle. Just a few more games left and then the postseason. We’ll see what happens. 🖤🧡

Animal Crossing update: Redd was in town. Got a new piece of art to add to my museum. Exciting! Loan is almost paid off. Like seriously! 😄

I’ve got my eye appointments tomorrow morning. I hope it goes well. I haven’t been super diligent with my drops. Eep!

I was pretty productive today. I washed dishes. Hurrah! I’m hoping to do more tomorrow. Clean and study!! That’s the plan.

Lastly, I wish things were different. I miss going out with friends, seeing family, and doing my own thing. Six months into this and it’s been up and down. There are so many emotions and feelings to sort through. 😞😫😭 But I’m doing my best. It’s been nice to chat with someone new – regardless of if it’s something more or not. Maybe we’re both interested? I don’t know. But I feel like 🥴 every time. 😂

I’m hoping to sleep soon. It’s an early day for me. Must practice driving too. Take care!

Good night.

Day 188.

Happy Wednesday! We made it to the middle of the week. 😎

I was feeling quite tired when I woke up, so I took a nap. It turned into 2 more hours of sleep. I felt pretty refreshed. Win!

Animal Crossing update: Things are the same on the island. I’ve saved enough to pay off my loan, but I’m waiting until I get it down to $100k. 🙂

Rare beauty stuff arrived today! I’m digging the lip soufflé and the highlighter. I like my makeup pretty natural and Selena’s line does the job. She’s also a Lupus Warrior! I always support the community. 💜💪🏼💜

I studied today. Made some progress with my class. Planning to read a bit more tonight before bed. I’m pretty productive at night. I’ve always been a night owl!

The Giants were the visiting team tonight. Pretty interesting. Lol. We got the W! 🖤🧡 The win was for the 49ers. ❤️💛 Kruk and Kuip mentioned them during the broadcast. 🥰

My workout was brutal, but I got it done. I wasn’t feeling too motivated. Proud of myself.

That was my Wednesday. Kinda feeling anxious for my call with the boss tomorrow. I’m aware that work will be different. I just need to be overly cautious about my surroundings and the people I interact with. I might be driving to work too. That’s a change! Fingers crossed that all goes well.

We’re still in the first wave. The things I read on social media just upsets me. There’s so much ignorance and selfishness. Absolutely frustrating! So many complaints to go back to “normal”, yet no one wants to listen to science and wear a mask! 😒😞😷 Please do your part. Rant over.

Good night.

Day 185.

Football Sunday! It’s back. ❤️💛 The Niners struggled. It’s only one game. Adjustments will be made. Go Niners! 🙂

And the Giants were swept in SD. 😬 Hoping they pick themselves up. These upcoming games will be a challenge. Go Giants! 🖤🧡

Anxiety has been up and down. Still haven’t replied. 🙃

I slept in. I washed the dishes. Ordered boba. I’m hungry again. Might eat a bit more before bed.

Animal Crossing update: Had to time travel again to buy my turnips. I bought 30 this time around. Hoping to make a nice profit this week. My island is still a mess. 😂

I’m going to play my uke. Eventually respond to this text and tidy up. It’s a new week! I’m feeling pretty good. 💜

Hoping my assignment gets approved for my class. I’ve been waiting to take the test, but it’s still locked. Ugh. I think I mentioned this in yesterday’s entry.

Have a great week, everyone! Take care.

Good night.

Day 183.

TGIF! 🙂 We made it to the weekend. I stayed up watching Julie and the Phantoms. I finished it. So good!! 💗

I always reflect on 9/11. I was a high school freshman. RIP to all the beautiful souls. We remember. I have so much respect for first responders. Thank you. ❤️

The Giants didn’t play today. Someone tested positive for COVID-19 so the game was postponed. I hope our player will be okay. Name wasn’t disclosed. No baseball for us for the next few days. 😢

I’ve been awake for most of the day. I did take a nap after breakfast. I’m in the middle of working on my class assignment. I’m almost done! I just need to type up a paragraph. AQI was very unhealthy today. I hope it improves soon. There’s ash all over our car.

Productive chat with my therapist. She’s always encouraging me! Gotta face things head on. Fear won’t win.

I’ve gotta exercise in a bit. Must get my squats done.

Animal Crossing update: couldn’t find the message in a bottle. What?! This has happened two days in a row. Very odd. My island is doing alright. I’ll tend to it this weekend.

Alright. Time to sweat. Exercising helps me focus. Then I’ll finish my assignment. I can!

Have a great weekend, everyone. Take care!

Good night.
