me three months ago: oh man i'm so happy i did that first blog entry i cant wait to make another one soon :]

me for the rest of those three months:

Hello y'all. Finally blog number 2 time. Ahehe funny.

So after being blocked by my dumb as hell ADHD, I finally decided to go on Adderall again after not taking it for so long. I don't really have THAT much of a reason as to why I haven't been taking it other than just old personal bad experiences with it, but so far it's been for the better. I've been a lot more motivated, awake for longer, more energy to do things. I think it's actually been giving me TOO much energy, since just a couple days ago I decided to stay awake for, uh, 2 days straight. With no naps. That's not a joke. I think I actually had to force myself to lay in bed and fall asleep. But I'm fine, so, don't worry.

On to what I've been getting up to; not much really. Most exciting thing that's happened, other than being on Adderall again, is that I was able to get in contact with an old best friend of mine from school! For some reason, my other friend from school, who I still talk to pretty much daily, had her added on his steam but, I didn't for some reason??? No idea why since they never interacted that much unless it was from me, but oh well.

We've actually both been in the same boat, where after high-school it was hard for us to do anything due to covid, so we've been at home trying to live our lives and get the motivation to finally do something. Hoping that happens soon honestly.

But it's been so much fun to talk to her again! We were so happy hearing each other's voices on call and we had a lot of fun just hanging out and laughing at silly things. Here's hoping we both get to play a game together at some point.

What else. I mentioned earlier that I stayed up for 2 days straight cause of the energy my meds gave me, but that's not the only reason. I watched RWBY for the first time ever, completely bingeing the entire series in a matter of 3 days, where, as I said, 2 of those I stayed awake for and didn't sleep at all. I got the urge to actually watch it when I stumbled across a post about it on tumblr and realized I knew nothing about, like down to not knowing that Ruby's name was Ruby, that's how much I didn't know. So with nothing better to do I watched the entire first volume on my phone in bed. And I didn't hate it, so I decided I would continue it in the morning. I ended up finishing it on Saturday, the 15th of this month.

I actually quite enjoyed it! First of all, I thought the series started in like 2012 or 2011, I had no idea it started in 2015, so that was surprising. Second, for some reason my impression of it that I've had all the way back in high-school was that it was gonna have really vulgar humor and make lots of adult jokes, but underneath it was gonna be this big serious plot. I had no reason to think this was how the series was gonna be so, IDK why I thought that. Third, I don't know why I didn't expect for the plot in volume 1 and 2 to be so generic. Don't get me wrong at all, I enjoyed it even if it was cliche, but it definitely was a bit of an "oh, it's one of those things" moment. But fourth, I'm very surprised with how much I enjoyed a lot of the plot points and characters. There were a lot of things that I didn't expect, and even when I did, I enjoyed seeing it happen because of how it was executed. And lastly, fifth, I had NO IDEA there were gonna be THAT MANY gay characters. Granted there are some that aren't stated on-screen to be gay, but the ones that are I think were done well! I especially loved the trans character that showed up in I think season 8, when they said "My family wouldn't accept me as their son, and I wouldn't let the people see me as their daughter." That was. So fucking cool?????? Hello?????? Killer line, honestly.

My favorite season definitely goes to season 9, which is funny considering, from how I've been looking at it, it seems to be the fanbases least favorite. But I liked a lot of aspects of it, from the area they're in to the plot points and elements they used. It all felt really good to see and watching the character development unfold the way it did was really cool.

God that was a lot of writing for a dumb 3d anime webseries.

Anyways, onto my plans for the "future", I guess, or at least what I want to get up to now that I have meds.

I've had some pretty bad motivation to draw or create in general because of how bad my ADHD got. I've been wanting to and I've had ideas in my head, thousands even, but my brain just refused to let me focus. Now that I have something to help me though, I'm really crossing my fingers that this gets me off my ass and ready to work on all the things I haven't been able to.

When I have any pieces of art that I'm ready to post, I'll put them in the art dump blog entry I have pinned on my profile. Whenever I update it, I'll say so on my bulletin.

And that's about it! I'm gonna see what my brain lets me get up to for today. Hope you all have a good day or night! Now let's see if I'll make a third blog in the future lmao.
