Truly loving something, or someone, makes you wish things didn’t have to end. Makes you wish things could go on forever, unchanged, so you can keep enjoying them as they are, as they make you happy.   But all that starts needs to end.   And endings are always hard.   Despite how I refused to finish The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, twitter was turning extremely dangerous with the…

I, against all forecast of things I would get obsessed with during 2024, fell in this weird place where, maybe coincidentally, ended up getting books which main themes are basically cannibalism. Sadly, not the ones who talk about it as a metaphor of love. But it’s still something that wasn’t in my bingo chart for 2024.   Tender is the flesh falls, unfortunately, amongst the books I haven’t feel…

I often don’t like to think about the future. When I was a kid, I didn’t even think I would make it past 18, and not because I didn’t want to, but because it seemed like 18 was too far away still. I was never much of a planner myself, I didn’t particularly figure out what I wanted to be in life and, somehow in denial, I’ve been living almost a day at a time, only planning social gatherings or…

I have a Twitch clip of the moment I beat the final boss of Doom Eternal. I recently bought a Cixin Liu book. And I keep my old pair of salomon trail shoes, just in case I need them again. I am highly motivated and influenced by love, probably that’s why I’m Necoco Love and not something different. Who would have thought.   I don’t think necessarily that being influenced is a bad thing, but it…

For many years I found it rather difficult to have a sense of belonging among my group of friends from school. I never felt like the pretty one, or the rather “conventionally normal girl”, the ones guys are attracted to. Being into videogames and anime from a young age just made me aware that I would hardly erase that feeling, no matter how many online friends I had with the same hobbies.   It…

Have you ever lived a moment that changed your life, for good or bad, and it perpetually marked a before and after in your life? Have you ever felt like a part of you died during this said event, and even though you can never go back, you miss how things used to be/feel? Sometimes it feels like that after the pandemic.   Plenty of things changed for a lot of people, good and bad. Those were hard…

A few years ago, when I was browsing the internet, I ended up in a website for digital books that allowed you to listen to the audiobook versions of them. By the time I was new to this concept of audiobooks, since I had been a physical book girlie for years. I was still coming to terms with my relationships with ebooks, since I wasn’t sure whether I loved the idea or I was just there because…

I remember I mentioned a couple of post before that I wasn’t particular into any fandom lately, so it’s hard to come up with something to talk about when there is nothing to talk about. Yes, I am a huge fan of plenty of things, but I don’t actively participate in their community, nor I contribute to them in any form, hence I doubt there is something I would want change.   But there’s always I…

I am currently on the process of adopting/stealing an orange cat that, ever since I moved to the current place I live in (which was around 1.3 years ago), has been coming around to visit me. I suspect he visits me and not my actual cat, Chobi, mostly because I’m friendlier than her. I suppose saying that I’m going to steal a cat sounds weird, but in my defense, I’ve gotten mixed signals and I’m…

Picking a favorite has never been my strongest. When it comes to books, movies, a tv show, even music, I rarely can mention just one that makes it for me. And sometimes I don’t even disguise it as being unfair to pick just one, sometimes I just don’t want to go through to trouble of deciding. Too lazy to decide. Quotes are not different. They never come easily to my mind, I either just remember…

The thing about creating content is that it feels like having a work, and I don’t like working at all. Ironically, someone asked me yesterday what I would like to do if money wasn’t an issue, and I replied something that, after all, involves or is related to creating content: videogames and writing.  But it is true that it feels like having a job: when it comes to streaming, you must be…

For people who like consistency and routines, like me, life can be full of rituals. Religiously getting into more comfortable clothes after work, turning everything off before bed, wishing your pets goodnight, it all counts as a ritual if done regularly. The most important thing that differentiate a ritual from a routine is the meaning behind it. From an outside point of view getting the first…

I read once somewhere that the space you live in reflects how’s the space in your head. I bet it has not been the first time I read something similar, my grandma and my dad used to constantly remind me to clean my room as a teenager, when there were more important things that folding laundry.   Breaking news, I’m not very organized in general. Which is ironic, since I’ve been volunteering for a…
