Hello hello! We’re well into the last half and the last quarter of the year. Can you believe the time flies so quickly? Christmas and holidays are starting to loom over ahead but before that, here’s a recap of what happened in the third quarter for me.
(more…)Recap 2025 (2/4): First LARP ever, moving, and the project-y mindset

Happy halfway through the year whoo!!! Looking back, second quarter was not as eventful or busy as I felt it was in the midst of it. There were definitely a lot of things going on but I also got some breathing spaces in between, which was great.

In an effort to bring in a little more creating in my life this year (and also to visit and write in this blog more often than I did in the past couple years), I decided to do a regular recap, publicly documenting some of the interesting things that I’ve gotten myself into recently.
I’d initially thought about making it a monthly thing, but let’s be real here: 1) there’s honestly not a lot interesting I do in a month these days that I can talk about, and 2) in a more positive side of things, I truly have cut down on my media consumption the past couple years. (You can say it’s perhaps why I haven’t blogged much in that same period but really #1 is a bigger reason for it haha!)
And thus, a quarterly recap was deemed more appropriate – hence the 1/4 part in the title.

Hello there. It’s been a while. Are there still people who visit this blog? Are there folks still reading this? To be honest, I don’t think those questions and their answers are that important. The important thing for me is: I’m still here, though definitely not as much as I should have been.

I briefly mentioned in my 2022 purchase ban that I already successfully did one specifically for art supplies a year back. Whilst going over my old files in my computer today, I found this draft, aptly named “Feels Weird.docx”, that I never finished about my feelings after that 2021 art supplies purchase ban. I don’t really want to finish it now, but the sentiments I held more than two years ago still ring true today. I also like how “unfinished” it is and that there’s no concrete conclusion at the end – because, even though I have resolved about certain things about my relationship with consumerism, that’s still how I feel in general. So here it is in its unedited glory:

Hi there. It’s been a while. For those who aren’t new here, thanks for sticking around. I know I haven’t been around much this year.
(more…)Let’s talk Under the Oak Tree, numbers, and my reviews (with a little delusional spice added in)

In 2022, my blog had a total of 6,702 views. The highest it’s ever had in a year.
5,305 of those views are for my Under the Oak Tree review.
That’s about 79% of my total views for 2022.
What the fuck happened?

I initially wrote an intro here, reflecting about my year. But as I wrote it, I found it made more sense to end the post on its note. So let’s get onto the list first:
