Oh boy before I forget!! Today is my tumblrversary! I joined tumblr 14 years ago today. I know I've been pretty quiet these past few months but I promise I'm not dead, just busy and exhausted :,) But I'll share with you guys a drawing from last month that I've been hoarding (because I'm still fantasizing about adding colours someday):

It's Audrey Grace floating in space like a weather vane. <33

Obligatory text post about my life uhhhmm..!!

1) I went to NYC last month! I had a great time visiting museums and other places and eating new york food and getting to watch Hadestown on Broadway 🤩 I recommend going in warmer weather though lol I bet Central Park and the botanical garden must look really lovely during the summer! The public transit system was also so convenient (EXCEPT FOR the coach bus that was late and almost made me miss my flight...). As for the negatives: everything was so expensive! 💸 And also everyone was noticeably more rude than in Canada? 🥲 There were a couple really nice new yorkers but it felt like most ppl didn't have time for you xD Anyway now I'm back to my USA travel boycott for real for real.

2) I've been hoarding a lot of art again without posting it...😬 I don't know why I get so hung up over posting...it's probably my perfectionism acting up 😭 and also cuz I'm scared...?? I'll try to post something soon though. It's all Audrey stuff of course.

3) LOOK at what I bought at Times Square!!

Rapunzel and Bunnie. I love them they make me so happy. 🌼

1) I just had the worst week of my life last week...I got covid for the first time ever and it was the new strain where every time I swallowed it felt like razor blades were slicing up my throat from the inside. It was so painful and scary and it gave me trauma...eventually I just kept a cup with me so I could spit out all my saliva instead of swallowing it. 😖 But I couldn't always avoid swallowing, and for a few days all I could do was flit in and out of consciousness on my bed because the pain had reduced me to a wild animal with half a brain cell left and this half-brain cell could only focus on breathing. 🥴 While I was awake all I did was take my pills and then stare at the wall until I fell asleep again because looking at a screen made me want to throw up. I could barely eat. It was really bad and I don't wish this suffering on my worst enemy. I think if faced with the choice of either going through all that again or cutting off my left hand I'd choose to cut off my left hand lol that's how scary and painful it was. Anyway I'm much better now! 😅 Even though my sense of taste hasn't fully recovered yet. I'm going to have sushi after work for my bday, hopefully the strong taste of soy sauce will reach my taste buds.

2) I finished reading 1984 just today!! 🥲 I don't know if it was because I was sick but reading it the past week has felt so suffocating...really powerful book, very well written in that it actually made me feel something but damn I definitely need something lighter now. I hated part 3 and the endless gaslighting and the huge ranting paragraphs about how the Party works and its goals that it will most certainly accomplish. Horrible horrible book, I definitely recommend it and I'm glad to have finally read it so I can understand all the references now and be a little more cultured yay. I think it's very necessary that we need to consume pieces of media that makes us uncomfortable and think. Lately I've been so bored of so many of the things I've been consuming the past couple years and it was making me depressed so I'm glad I felt something this time. ✌️ And at any rate I'm proud of me for having finished a novel, I don't remember the last time I read an entire book so... Next I'm going to read another Lou! volume and then I'm gonna read Pride and Prejudice, I hope I'll enjoy it ahhh! Have any of you guys read it before?

3) I'm still posting on OCSN everyday! They've got a referral event right now in that if you make an account by Dec 31 and use my invite code star-CQ6TzpmsEy while signing up, both you and I will get a fancy avatar decor :) Look how pretty they are! Come and interact with Audrey Grace and be her friend! :) RP with meeee..!

For this text post I just wanted to share some of my 2025 accomplishments, if that's not your thing you can keep scrolling, but if you're a nosy gremlin you can read on!

1) Mental health: I started writing in a journal this year April, and I actually haven't abandoned it yet! At first I mainly just used it to write down interesting facts from wiki about flowers and stuff but these last few months I've been using it more like a diary. I even have the next notebook ready for when I completely fill out all the pages of my current one, which may be soon (just 7 pages left!).

2) Physical health (CW: eating habits): I survived covid this month. \o/ Also I made the choice to eat healthier starting in March this year, and I've actually been able to keep my self control this whole time and I'm very proud of me, because...it's hard!! 😂 It's a decision I have to wake up and make everyday. It's important for me to eat healthier because I have a family history of diabetes, also my previous eating habits were making me so lethargic in the evenings..😞 whereas these days I'm a lot more alert now which allows me to enjoy my free time after work :>

3) Becoming more cultured: My duolingo streak is still going strong, at 595 days now! I even managed to finish reading the entire Lou! compilation which consisted of the first 8 volumes of a comic series by Julien Neel...500 comic pages entirely in French!! This required a lot of dedication and patience since I had to stop and look up translations several times for each page. And speaking of reading, I also started reading things other than Dracula this year, and I hope to continue. I finished 1984, and I have two other novels lined up, and then I really want to try tackling A Brief History of Time, because I really want Audrey to get into quantum physics.

1) my current discord icon is Rumi from kpop demon hunters and my irl bff's daughter (she's 3 yrs old) is currently obsessed with that movie and every time my bff talks to me on discord her daughter thinks she's talking to Rumi LOL her daughter even made her record her singing What It Sounds Like and she said "send it to Rumi" x)

2) I recently reached 7000 followers on tumblr...i wasn't gonna say anything about it since i know it's been 13.5 years and im very confident that 99% of those followers are inactive by now but still I just think it's neat ;w; Thanks for sticking with me if you still are!

3) i wanna promo my side blog again: @asteroidhyalosis It's my reblog blog where I mostly hoard pretty pictures (usually of various media that I like and/or art of pretty girls) that inspire me artistically, move me to my core and/or remind me of my audrey. It's my very personal happy place and my favourite hobby is to write compliments and what i love about each post in the tags ^v^ <3 And best thing is I'm extremely picky about what i reblog so it won't fill up your dashboard (the past month was an exception due to the mcr tour, but even then it was an avg of only 2 reblogs a day lol)

Anyway, I'll try to think of 3 things to say:

1) I'm excited for the mcr concert tomorrow ^w^ I'm going alone, I hope I'll be okay!

2) If my Audrey was an animal crossing character what animal would she be. Maybe a sheep or a deer? A bunny? A squirrel? Would she just be Audie the wolf? What do you guys think. I've been thinking about this since 2019

3) I've been learning French on duolingo and I've got a 465 day streak so far. If anyone else is on duolingo, feel free to add me as a friend, my username is MIRU667. I'll add you back if I recognize you! My avatar is Audrey on there to keep me motivated cuz it's like I'm pretending I'm rping her learning French lol. Ce n'est pas facile pour moi d'apprendre le français mais c'est intéressant !
