Finally finished reading through the most recent round of seasonsofdrabbles , so I can now share my wrap up post! This was definitely a really fun round 🥰

My gifts
I received so many lovely gifts this time. More than double what I usually receive, so I'm extra grateful! There are so many of my favorite fandoms, ships, and tropes here:

Welcome to August! Somehow it feels like the year just started but also this has been the longest summer ever 😂 weird

Anyway, a few things to share today:

I hung out with my brother last night (we were watching Yu Yu Hakusho, among other things) and I didn't get home until 2 a.m. 😅 so I had a really slow start today. Some days I miss my college-aged self who could stay up late AND THEN wake up early the next day too lol

But those days are behind me now 😂 anyway, we've got the more recent past (last week) to talk about instead:

Back again for the weekly summary even though I feel like I just wrote last week's 😅

Another week has flown by, but it was a good one! At least, looking back on it now, any bad stuff has already been forgotten. So I'm grateful for that.

Anyway, this week's summary is very fic reading/writing heavy. Idk how that happened 😅

It has been a very weird week, but mostly in a good way. I've been enjoying the extra sunshine and nice weather 🥰 but work was also exhausting 😵‍💫 I'm hoping this week will be a return to my more typical workload...

But anyway, let's get to the good stuff.

March has arrived, and so has (temporarily) nicer weather. Maybe I will take a walk later today?

But first, the weekly summary:

For personal archiving/housekeeping purposes, I wanted to put together a little masterpost of what I did for halfamoon 2024.

The 14-day fest is all about celebrating women, so I was able to focus on several of my favorites. I didn't get to do the prompt for every day, but it was still a lot of fun.

As I mentioned in my most recent weekly summary, I actually did a little bit of art over the weekend! It's been over a year since I've touched my sketchbook, but I had a silly idea and just had to try drawing it.

Saturday was the Lunar New Year, and the beginning of the Year of the Dragon. I don't personally celebrate this holiday, but I was inspired by a lot of lovely art on Twitter and also the silly idea that there are so many anime (and other cartoon) characters I like that are associated with dragons in some way.

I'm really proud of how the art turned out (even though I'm still very much a beginner and have to use reference photos), so I wanted to share the art here too. Four photos under the cut!

I have been awake since 4:30am (for anxiety reasons, I suppose) so I figure I might as well go ahead and write this post. It's been a weird week. The weather was unseasonably warm for a few days, but I was too busy with work to really enjoy it 😩

Despite work doing its best to steal all my free time, I did manage to enjoy a few things this past week.
