I think that I tend to focus so much on the lacking moments that perhaps I forget to acknowledge and appreciate the times when there are little sparks of joy. Today was a really good day, full of things that I can say with certainty made me happy! 💖 I loved waking up today without somewhere to be or immediate deadlines to work towards!! I cannot remember the last time I was allowed to be so relaxed. With my freedom I decided to lie in bed and start playing the Revue Starlight mobile game—which I genuinely quite enjoy! ^^ There's lots of fun story content, reasonable combat system, generous gacha and stamina so far, even your own little space to decorate and watch your best girls walk around and interact in. And then I met up with friend to get my new favorite thing: the Sesame Matcha Milk drink, which was super yummy and hit the spot!! Followed by a really fun thing! We joined up with another friend to take a spontaneous adventure to the beach city that's 45 minutes away. 💕 Visited one of my favorite ice cream parlors and we went on a wild goose chase looking for these particular coffee beans (despite not being coffee drinkers LOL) that support a particular youth resource foundation related to events from years ago and is very close to my heart. We explored downtown! And finally, I've been looking forward to lying in bed and playing more Revue Starlight!! Sadly I've been busy preparing for tomorrow which will be a..crazy day so I haven't actually gotten to open the game—and also really wanted to immortalize my joys from today—but I think it's a beautiful thing, the sensation of "looking forward to something." ;v;

Tomorrow is another obstacle to cross.
