bits of fun i've had this month so far

Image
i have a very demanding job, hour-wise. i spend most of my time at work, going to work, getting back home from work, resting from work. i do have 2 free days a week, but they let me know which ones weekly, so i can't really plan my life very far into the future. i try to have fun and enjoy life a little in my free days so i don't go fully insane, even if they have to be spur of the moment plans or things i can make really quickly. for example, look at this cool apple art i made, a gif of an apple with stars drawings on it, rotating on itself or should i say copied ? i saw this post on tumblr the other day and i've been obsessed with that gif, it's so cool, i hAd to make my own !! don't worry i ate it after, no apple would ever be wasted on my watch, or my dogs.... and believe me, he was watching. he wanted that cookie so f-ing bad, a picture of trufo (my dog) staring at an apple on the floor i also got a sunday free this month and i went back to trinket heaven, i t...

shout out to fun music, gotta be one of my favorite genres. THIS (if u don't use spotify, you can see the list at the end of this entry) is my fun music playlist and i'm gonna talk about it.  let's start with the queen herself: super yuppers !   wjsn chocome, much like orange caramel, is the fun quirky sub-unit of a big girl-group. this song is so silly, every single part: the lyrics, the concept, the costumes, the choreo. i remember when it came out in 2022 i thought "finally, it was about time someone brought fun back to kpop".  and that was when i decided to make this playlist (although with the years i collected a few not-kpop songs too). risking sounding like an old hag, kpop used to be so much more fun when i started listening around 2011-2012. yes, part of it it's probably tied to the fact that i was a kid with no real problems so everything was more fun back then, but it's not just that !   kpop back then was all about fun ! about being different,...

alien plants

Image
spring brings a lot of weird little creatures out, including mid blossoming plants that look like they came from another planet, look at this guy ! different angles of a weird looking plant. it looks like it's giving birth to a broccoli. the internet tells me it's called an angelica archangelica, apparently it has medicinal properties and it's named after the archangel gabriel (they think it was a gift from them). it's very cool looking, it feels like an alien plant.  not as weird but also very very cool: a fully perfectly round dandelion. not a single seed flew away yet. it's so pretty and kinda rare to find i think. so many wishes to be fulfilled, what would you ask it for after blowing them out ? a dandelion at the end of it's cycle: very round, very fluffy  these flowers were also kinda weird, and there was a bee who was obsessed with them, couldn't get enough, she didn't even leave when i got very close to take the photos, iris albicans + a little b...

volverรกn las oscuras golondrinas,

Image
(i looked up how you say golondrina in english and it said: swallow, and i simply refuse. i'm telling you now so you know, for the rest of this entry if you see the word golondrina, i mean swallow) we've had a family of golondrinas raising their baby chicks on the exact same spot of our backyard every spring for almost 10 years.  they came one year, build a nest and stayed there. we never took it down, so they kept coming back, they didn't even have to build a new nest because there was already one. i like to believe is always the same family, different generations of course, but the still family. they're fun, great entertainment. my bathroom's window shows exactly the spot were the nest is so we can observe the eggs and then see them feed the babies, teach them how to fly. it's so cool.  not everything is fun tho, they're quite overprotective of their babies. they act like they own the house and we are the ones invading it, and not the other way around. if...

the 3rd pig.

     i am a very introverted person, very socially awkward, socially inept even. i'm not kidding when i say is so bad it's most definitely pathological, i do need some sort of therapy intervention here, but i'm 28. i've survived this long, i can keep going on my own (also therapy is scary).      all this to say i enjoy an odd number of people. a group of people where everyone can pair up and leave me behind for a bit. they can talk among themselves while i'm there but i don't really need to actively participate. you could say i have the opposite of fomo: i want to miss out, please do overlook me, don't talk to me directly.        so i often find myself in trios of friends. 3 to be exact, i have 3 different friend groups in which i am the third one.        not to contradict myself here (the human mind is weird like that), while it is true i lowkey want to be left out, mainly because getting all the attention/h...

what's in my bag ? adventure edition

Image
i did say you would see this baby again so here we are,    [video shows my hand taking items out of a very cute strawberry shoulder bag. the items in order of appearance: a kuromi folded bag, a gardening glove, a miniature toy baby (plus sniff test by my dog), a knife] now it's literally adventure time. (tw: bugs !) first let me show you my ootd, the really cool print my shoe leaves behind, what i used the kuromi bag for (it's full of pinecones) and some critters (bee. worm, snail), if you're wondering why did i take the baby with me, i'm in the middle of a silly project and i needed some pictures of the baby with nature, these are some of my favorites + me using the glove i packed to rescue the baby (i love when i get to use my items, i didn't need the knife that day tho),   my mom loves trinket babies so when i saw him at one of the tables of the flee market i knew i had to get him for her. now i am building him a little room on a little box and i'm gonna mak...
