I'm so proud of myself 😤 I was feeling exhausted after work, but I still made dinner (from scratch!) And, I finally ordered my groceries for pickup tmrw!! I still need to do my budget... but, I'm so proud of myself for doing something that wasn't the easy option!

Aku menang!

Di kamar, abis referral meeting, 22:11

Hari ini aku ditegur lagi sama atasanku, karena case yang sama. Itu artinya CAPA (Corrective Action - Preventif action) yang kulakukan belum efektif - karena case ini terulang kembali. Tapi aku merasa menang! Aku nggak nangis, aku nggak nyalahin diriku sendiri, aku nggak melabeli diriku sebagai orang paling bodoh sedunia, aku nggak scroll LinkedIn : hal-hal yang selalu kulakukan tiap ditegur atasanku. Aku nggak mau kalah. Aku nggak mau jadi orang yang nanti bakal nyesel, aku nggak mau main asumsi lagi, aku nggak mau kemakan emosi. Jadi aku mulai mencari root cause nya, mengingat-ingat kembali di mana potensi kesalahanku, dan aku buat daftar usulan perbaikan yang akan aku lakukan, biar besok bisa aku diskusikan dengan atasanku. Aku nggak cerita urusan ini ke orang lain, karena aku takut terpercik api dan jadi emosional. Aku yakin atasanku negur sekeras itu pasti ada kebaikan buat aku.

Ini bukan masalah besar!

Sekarang aku mau tidur dulu. Doain aku ya !

On a brighter note in my otherwise very empty life, I'll soon resume bookbinding! Now that I have my bookbinding stuff back and that I have a workspace with enough room, I'll slowly go back to it.

I recently realized my hands were becoming kinda clumsy too, things keep falling from my them and I don't know why. It's a bit worrying but I hope going back to crafting will help. I haven't done anything with my hands for months and I can feel it.

I'm still hoping binding fics too, this time for good. Moving abroad was unexpected and happened very quickly so I had to first get used to the new job and the new life, and obviously get my things back from France.

How far apart the small parts of us feel - yet we belong to one big heart.

it's funny how helpful seemingly obvious things my therapist has told me actually are

"you don't have to choose between having a yoghurt or sandwich for breakfast, you can eat both."

"it is better to sign up for an exam/term paper and deregister than to not try at all."

"if you don't have the energy to cook, ready-made stuff is fine."

"you don't have to manage to get out of bed immediately, getting into a habit of waking up and staying awake at a certain time is a good enough first step."

message from santa: "happy holidays post-it-notes! 🎄🥳 i know you very politely only wished for a few modest things- characters high fiving, or struggling in christmas attire- but i hope you'll still enjoy this given that i kinda went the opposite direction entirely! i'm an enormous fan of your work and most times you post anything i wind up browsing your art tag from tip-to-tail in enraptured delight. as such, i thought it was only fair i give back something a little more significant in gratitude for all the joy your work has given me. i knew i wanted to do a comic, so i was thrilled you already had a whole storyverse for me to work from!! this scene seemed the most obvious choice (chapter 8 of "wishful thinking" on ao3) given that i enjoy a dramatic fight scene 😂 i tried to stick as beat-by-beat to the writing as i could and worked in as many details as possible; i hope it'll be fun to see it envisioned this way! merry christmas! ~starflung 🎀🔔 "

#phew... this is by far the most ambitious piece i've ever posted here! 12 pages! this is why i've been so afk from other work haha! #shout out to the poor mods who sent through assignments and received no small amount of all-caps panicked screaming from me in response!! #me?! draw a gift for THE post-it-notes7!? immediately knew i had to overachieve to stand any hope of being up to the bar haha #if you feel these characters look a little different to how i usually draw them- that's totally on purpose! #i worked really hard to match post's designs and styling for them rather than my own; seeing as this was a gift! #actually think it stands out a *lot* surprisingly- given that they are still the exact same orbs. really interesting to compare to my usual #i hope some folks will notice all the details from the story in here! if you've read it and you recognised it please let me know! #genuinely hoping someone just recognises it on the first page. iconic canyon fight... what an honour to draw for this fic tbh #also thank you to the mods for handling all the wips and progress on this ridiculously sized entry from me with such grace #it's being posted on my personal blog due to length for anyone wondering. should be seamless... fingers crossed. #my art #my comics #meta knight #galacta knight #hnk secret santa #cw violence

Flowers and Healing

When I and my ex-boyfriend were dating, he often used flowers as a way to apologize for the abuse I received from him. I’ve always loved anything flora and he said he loved me, so I just kept accepting it and I kept forgiving him.

Towards the middle of our relationship, I started to realize that I was no longer fascinated in whatever flora. In a way, I no longer saw beauty in them. When the relationship ended in 2020, I had this great hate for it. If anyone ever received flowers or talked about it, go ahead and enjoy it by all means. But I would always be in my mind thinking what’s so special about it. They’re just flowers.

About a month ago, I saw this bougainvillea tree that had a mix of whites and pinks. It had bloomed so, so beautifully that I’d always stop by intentionally to adore it. I then realized that I’m once again loving anything flora and that someday when given the chance, I’d like to receive them still but hopefully this time, it would be out of pure love and no longer of apologies or manipulation.

Just recently, I bought a pot of flowers for myself to grow—hydrangeas. They are beautiful. I hope they’ll continue to bloom well just like how I hope I eventually would, too.

listen im ace and im pro kink at pride and whatever, but the way some of yall are wording your posts in response to the backlash against it is uh. really taking me back to the ace shitcourse era.

yall know theres nothing wrong with being a "virgin", right? that its not inherently shameful to have not had sex, to never have sex, even if youre not ace, even if you do want to have sex someday, like, its fine that you haven't had sex?

maybe if your problem is that theyre trying to police your behavior and shame you for expressing your sexuality, you can say that? instead of resorting to "haha stupid virgin gets no bitches" like my god. do you not hear how fucking regressive that attitude is? i know, i know, youre "joking".

get a better joke

#toy txt post #god im going to regret this post im gonna regret it so much i can feel it in my bones #let it flop..........pls #internalize my message let it sink in and understand what i am saying and then let the post flop #i say. knowing the ppl who need to see such a message are the ones who will make me regret this post and regrwt not having #1 million bajillion disclaimers #virgin is in quotes bc its a bullshit made up stupid purity culture concept anyway and quite frankly i hate even seeing the word #disclaimer: the previous sentence is not me saying that it is a slur for asexuals. it is me a single individual saying this specific word #grosses me out to read and see everywhere when its a stupid bullshit binary made up or at least historically largely used #to shame largely women and i dont know why we're still using it in 2023 #and ive just been. seeing such an uptick in this whole like. attitude? lately and like #im ace im minorly sex repulsed. mostly about anything sex at me bad. other adults sex at each other consensually? go wild #i like to think im pretty chill about it. i try to be. i think its fine ig to be like 'my meat is huge i fuck so much so good' #like okay not my thing but good for you. love that for you #but then some of yall have started turning it back around back to. 'haha your meat so small and shriveled you get no bitches' #'haha stupid incel virgin' like okay. didnt realize we all went back to fucking. middle school but okay #god im gonna run out of tine to get ready for my thing writing this stupid post UGH evil #but like idk we've kinda circled back to being like haha being a virgin still is stupid and silly and shameful #and if im quite honest. i do think the acecourse played a part in that bc i felt like we were making good progress in like #hey guys is fine to not have sex ever if you dont want to its fine to not want sex its fine #and then aphobes went fucking rabid on us and splintered and destroyed online communities all over but especially on tumblr #and so many aces went back in the closet we stopped talking about it we stopped spreading awareness and now this stupid goddamn like #and now this stupid bullshit attitude is back where its like funny to call someone a virgin as an insult but like no bro trust me its okay #its okay for me to do it bc im a hot queer person with huge meat instead of a cisstraight frat bro with huge meat #? like you know the issue was the behavior right? not the fact that it was straight dudes saying it? its bc the thing being said was shitty? #you know you can dunk on the puritan bitches trying to police your behavior at pride without getting us as collateral damage right #stop making me read that stupid ugly ass word ur not cool or funny #whatever #if you come on to this post to start shit i will not only block you but as many of your mutuals and followers as i can find. i will scroll #i will block this entire fucking website if i need to do not test me. i am exhausted and the acecourse ate up all my tolerance in 2015.

Guys.

A possible minor breakthrough.

I managed to do a single foot spin for two rotations. Not once. But twice. While tired.

Still chipping away at inside 3 turns and Mohawks tho...

And backwards crossrolls [mortal terror]

So I'm just about done with 2 websites(one for le podcast & the other porn site), hyping myself up to finally sell my handmade home decor crafts, and get the hell out of my head.

So far so good, I haven't thrown in the towel just yet! Links coming soon~
