I'm living for Dreamcatcher's new song. Justice already made it to my favourites playlist.

A bit on the “too much oven time” side, but they’re all great! I have snacks for the rest of the week, yaay!

Yesterday’s experiment: lemon cake. Not bad, but I found that I should NEVER skip the lemon zest. EVER. At least I found the perfect cake base for other variations. Orange cake, here I come!!

Thank god for cats. They are just hanging out, nudging me for their snacks and reminding me life goes on, even if the world outside our door is collapsing for painfully stupid reasons.

It’s absolutely thrilling to get back to your place just a few minutes before it starts POURING rain. And then you get to open the windows and listen to the soothing sounds of people panicking on the street.

I feel like I used to have thicker skin for corporate issues, but nowadays I either feel numb or mumble "please don't yell at me, I'm just trying to do my best" with my eyes full of tears at every meeting.

Also, him doing this at 7 am is actually a good thing. Once he did that at 3 am and I had to knock on the ceiling for him to settle the eff down. Some people should be forbidden to live in apartments.

Good thing I usually wake up at this time and don’t mind a little motivation getting up early, but dang man, today’s Saturday and I had a rough week. I wouldn’t mind an extra hour of sleep.

My upstairs neighbour decided to wake up today at 7 am in complete panic as he proceeded to slam every single door in his room at least 26 times each while walking around talking loudly. This man hates me specifically.

Ooooh Writer's Blood is my all-time favourite! May I ask you you have been filling your pens with the Ferris Wheel Press ink? Did you have to transfer the ink to another container or something?

Though after reading some thoughts about him from other people, I'm willing to rethink about the way I see Elhokar. Tough stuff to do when Kaladin is my all-time favourite character.

People berate me for celebrating what happens to Elhokar in Oathbringer, but I just... hate that guy with a passion lol. The only feeling I have towards him is "já vai tarde".

Re-reading Words of Radiance, I still think about the scene near the end where Elhokar asks Kal if he thinks he's a bad king and Kal replies "oh, absolutely lol you're a very shitty king" like WHAT DID YOU EXPECT, ELHOKAR???? Even his mother thinks he's a shitty king, dude, just... LEAVE.

I won’t be getting any new fountain pens any time soon though. I already got BENU’s Earl Grey Tea this year and it still needs more love. Consumerism is always lingering though.

Sometimes I think about BENU’s Iced Caramel Latte, Neapolitan and Matcha Latte pens and ask myself if I need more fountain pens for my collection. I don’t, but still.

Now that I think about it, there still isn't a bubble tea-themed fountain pen. Is BENU the one to eventually make it happen?

Yeah, that's what crossed my mind. Which is sad, because that song is a heck of a banger.

I wasn't expecting the latest choreo for Enhypen was going to be Fatal Trouble, I really had hopes for Teeth. But you know what, Fatal Trouble was one of my favourite songs from their latest album, so I'm quite happy.

I have started to read the book and I personally enjoy the very beginning of the book. “Well, life is awful and everything sucks, except for water. Water is very neat”, and for some reason I thought this was very relatable.
