Since my last post in November I kinda got into a certain schedule. One that's the same every week. Having a routine like that helps securing my happiness. Knowing where I have to be, what's up next even in my free time - simply the knowledge that there's a place I have. (No, the journey to find my self is still ongoing.) Looking back at my first months here in this new environment it's clear that this is exactly what I needed.
While I have university Monday to Friday, my weekend is fairly free and I pretty much spent it with lots of sleeping, eating, binge watching shows (Finished Season 3 of Orange is the new Black last weekend. Great show, despite being so hyped and mainstream! Recently I started Prison Break... Notice a certain pattern?) and cuddling. When I get home on Sunday evenings I'm usually pretty exhausted despite the relaxed weekend. Anyone know this feeling? During my free periods in university I usually have lunch and/or wash the laundry. Depending on the amount I do it twice a week. (Not eating, of course! I do that three times a day, duh. Unless I oversleep. Like I did last Friday. First time in forever...) Monday's also my grocery shopping day. If necessary, I go to the stores on other days, but usually I plan the food menu for the entire week and buy all I need.
You may have expected more than this, but this is honestly all I do during the week. Sure, I have free time and it's not like I do nothing, but after having a long and exhausting day of university just lying down and watching stuff is so relaxing. Thursday and Friday are my shortest days, so if I go out, it's then. The other week I went to the show of my favourite comedian on a Thursday evening and it was so fantastic that I bought two tickets for another show in May. Next time I'll be going with someone else though so I can insider joke about everything. Yes, I can laugh about the same jokes twice, otherwise I wouldn't be going again ahaha What I also sometimes do in my free time is going to the shopping mall to buy yet another skirt or manga, karaoke or even the emergency because I randomly got a middle finger contusion. Fun times. Can't even play Dragon Nest or check out Blade and Soul due to my bandaged middle finger. I mean, WASD is impossible when the touch hurts. (It works like that, right?) At least I'm able to play mobile games. Currently I'm playing Unison League, メルティメイデン, Dream Girlfriend, ホストのアブナイ世界 and Happy Pet Story. Now you may have noticed that Love Live! isn't noted despite me formerly writing about it in every blog post. But, the fact that I stopped playing is quite involuntarily. After not having played for a while I wanted to pick it up again - an in-game notification said, I wouldn't be able to play unless I updated the game via iPad. However, going there, there was no possible update to be found. That's when I knew I wouldn't be able to play again... Because I used to play Love Live! on my iPad... First generation, doesn't go beyond iOs 5.1.1., update required a higher iOs. I didn't even get the chance to get an account transfer code thingy, so even if I played in my phone, I would have to restart. Since I don't want to degrade from a tablet to a phone screen though, it's just not going to happen. Goodbye, beloved waifus and hello Love Live! free but not love free life.
