HI ALL!!

sorry i'm getting this posted so late into the night. i'm sure it's not a big deal to anyone but yknow :P

this week has been a BUNCHHHH like woah. i did a lot honestly. nothing too crazy but i did do a bunch. 

on monday, i went back to my mom's like normal!! and i made valentine's day cookies for my friends!!! :D i made 3 cookies each and let my sisters use the leftover dough to decorate their own cookies. so that was really fun!

on tuesday, it was valentine's day!! i gave my friends their cookies and i received some chocolate from my friend quin which was awesome!!!!! it was very tasty and had a cute little kitty cat on it :3 after school, i went to the library for a few hours cause they were gonna have a valentine's day party!!! so i bought myself boba and read before the party, rereading tgcf hehe. and anyway my little stepsister was there with a bunch of her friends and she was like "are you just here alone...." and i said "oh yeah my friends are all busy" and she was really snotty about it imo, idk if she meant to be but she was like "have fun doing nothing..." and i felt embarrassed so i went home :( my mom had bought me a BUNCHHH of candy though so that fixed it!!
and then ofc like usual i had fencing. it was fun!! we were learning more counter attacks, and beats!!! beats are where you knock away your opponent's sword with yours!! super fun >:D though, i was against a more experienced fencer and he was NOT FUCKING AROUND so needless to say, i have a few bruises on my arm and one on my collarbone too :,) honestly it was just cause he kept. hitting the same place over and over and over. which is what we were supposed to be doing!! it just hurt. lolz. he even said like "i hope i'm not hurting you!!" and i went "nope, no worries :)" because i didn't wanna seem like a total baby \

wednesday i can't remember for the life of me. i mean honestly genuinely what did i do. my memory is so bad sometimes :P

on thursday i went to the doctor!! at 7:15 in the damn morning!!!!! it was so early grahhhh. but i went for my acid reflux cause it has been concerningly bad. i got prescribed omeprazole. yaaayyy another thing to lug back and forth from my houses every week :,) but anyway i take one pill every morning 30 min to an hour before breakfast. crazy. and while i was at the doctor i asked my doctor if she could help me get on testosterone, and she called the local hospital and said she would help me organize my information and get it sent over!!!! she was genuinely so amazing for that, and i will forever be grateful!! she's actually supposed to call me tomorrow to help me out so i'll see what happens. but this means i may get to go on t soon!! i'm so excited eeeee y'all have no idea.
anyway. also on thursday, i took some of the school day off, about half, and i went to my mom's work with her. she cleans a local church every week, so i helped her clean. it was mostly vacuuming that i did, and DAMN THE SUNDAY SCHOOL ROOMS WERE MESSY!! do those kids just crumble up animal crackers on the ground or something???? yeesh. but it was really easy work imo, and it was nice to just get to listen to music and spend time with my mom instead of going to class :D

on friday, i took an algebra exam, and i'm gonna be really honest...................... i think i failed. soooooo. that's always fun : ) 
but in more important news, my friend lance came over!!! sleepover timeee!! we went to the library first before going to my house, we got boba tea and we even got to reconnect with an old friend from our old school!!! leo!!! he was super cool like we all got massive glowups grahhhhh we're all so cool now. we made pins and i doodled a bunch. it was a vibe!! i made a pin that said "hot boys have acid reflux". because so true. i also made a pin of a little bee. and lance made a pin of me!! a little doodle!! so silly.
when we got to my house, we just screwed around for a bit and were silly, and then we read homestuck!!! thoughhhh i did fall asleep. and then wake back up, fully convinced lance was reading chip and dale comics (are those even a thing???). and then i fell asleep again and woke back up and asked annoying questions about homestuck troll naming conventions.

on saturday, obviously i spent the morning and early afternoon with lance, we just hung out, ate breakfast, and talked. and we read the last few chapters of the tgcf manhua!!!! it was soooo funnnnn :D i fucking love tgcf so i'm glad they wanted to read with me. my mom took all my siblings to the park, then she offered to take me shopping, so i got more time with just my mom!!! she took me to a thrift store, i got a cool jacket and a button down, she ran me by the boba shop too, and we got auntie anne's cinnamon pretzel bites mmmmmmm. tasty!!! it's always nice to just chill with my mom!!
unfortunately later in the evening i felt sick??? i don't feel sick now, but i felt like dead last night. i took an hour long bath and ate like 4 bites of shrimp lo mein. i made myself some hot cocoa, fell into bed, and watched youtube until i passed out.
AND I HAD THE WORST FUCKING NIGHTMARE OF MY LIFE >:( i would describe it but it was genuinely so disgusting and triggering that i'd rather just uhhhh not think about it!!!

and then today!! sunday!!! i have been running around literally ALL DAY like this is the first time i've really sat down. i woke up, and pretty much immediately my mom and i were like "hmmm we should go see grandpa" so i made him a tiramisu, it's his birthday next weekend but i'll be with my dad. and i did a load of laundry, cause i desperately needed to. then we went to my grandparents' house, i had a FANTASTIC conversation with my grandpa about colonialism and archaeology. i love my gg he's honestly so cool and i love getting to have deep conversations with him, plus he lets me unmask when i'm talking about things i like, so i can get really loud and stim and everything!!! and ofc i saw my grandma too, i love her!! she gave me fruit and girl scout cookies >:D 
immediately after getting home from my grandparents' house, my mom and i took odin to the dog park, though it was dusk and it was cold and all the other dogs except one left about fifteen minutes in. but odin made a friend with a german shepherd named bella!! so that was cool
i just got home about an hour ago, and i took out my laundry and decided to wash my bedding as well. we have to take my weighted blanket to a dry cleaner which i think is ridiculoussssss. i just want it to be easy >:P but yeah
i'm not really sure what i'll do with my evening yet. probably just rest up, play some cookie run. maybe i'll watch bluey!! not sureee :D

but anyway, sorry for rambling, y'all know me i always do!!!!
