Change

 Stuff is happening. Change. In the house of  Cynth.
Come August. Also

It's extremely stupid to type "homerow" with unreasonably long nails. I say this, as I struggle keeping a- nope. Can't do it. There's no cadence to it, just awkward misses. I like to think myself a pro at typing but these invasive keratin nail-bed parasites are complicating even the most mundane tasks.

Why tolerate it? uhh... I mean. idk. but like have you even seen Bib Fortuna and Armand?


Look at that swagger. It's the nails. I'm sure of it. That's me. I want that swag. The fingerless gloves and the rings? Mmpf.
In an interview with Antonio Banderas for his role as Armand, he elaborates on how he had to grow his nails out and how uncomfortable it made people who happened to notice them. Those are his natural nails. And I thought that was so badass. I wanna be badass.

So here I am, with extremely long, natural nails, complaining about it. I've peaked, I think. Yes. During quarantine, while everyone else is doing their thing, I'm reaching for that Bib Fortuna/Armand aesthetic by meticulously caring for and growing out my nails. *chugs wine* everything is fine


Gradual changes amid this pandemic begin with gradual steps.
Boyfriend's mom had the cutest driving sleeves in her van. I want a pair, too lol.




And his sister gave us delicious sour plum jam that she made. Gotta eat it with all of the toast and pancakes. I attempted to make puffy pancakes this morning and failed lol. Not really, they just weren't up to my puffy standards, so tomorrow I shall try again. But they were good.

Birthday things!
Commemoration for birthday boy Lifa was in full effect.



BBQ time. And I gave him the gift of Seoul Street. lol
The other night, Chicken and I went out for a late night drive down the pacific coast highway, (i melted from the beauty of the tranquility and lights that the night sky brings), and I thought; omg how do I not have my scarf right now? So, I fixed it and made myself THAT girlfriend:



Accessory high-maintenance girlfriend mode: ACTIVATED

 I felt so obnoxious lol. It's fine. 
Friendos said I looked like Audrey Hepburn. I can live with that. Next time we go to the car meet, I'll bust the Hepburn out 10x.

Honestly, the 50s thing always felt out of my reach, because I'm super minimalist when it comes to dressing up, pero I can see myself doing this more often, because pants. Instead of a hoodie, I'll wear a scarf lol. This is it, this is a fashion rite of passage. Right here. It's happening.



 HAY JOHN :D
Thank you for the yummy aloe water stuffs.
We went to Seoul Street two days in a row. It's fine.



 BDAY BBQ. 
It was just us, but honestly couldn't ask for anything more.



Dat spicy sawz. He incorporated Seoul Street's ghost pepper sauce into it to dress his burgers. Was bomb.



 LOOKIT DEEZ MENS DOIN A BBQ
Charcoal and propane- no discrimination in this house.

 Chicken prepared the chicken. So gooood. Reminded me of seasoned rotisserie chicken.


 Bday boy brought cigars. 
Cigar +  beard = perfect trope to photograph
He's actually a nerdy teddy bear, the juxtaposition was lolz.

And of course... we made s'mores. I impulse bought stuff for s'mores because I'm a child, but it was the best decision ever.



 S'MEESES


 Hard pass on the s'meeses, but indulged in many a s'more that eve.

 "this is how the Hawi'ian islands were formed"




 We're all trash. Look at his shirt.
I gotta get him a Toga statue lol


Still playing Overwatch like a gremlin. Was thinking about it the other day.... how my favorite mode to play is Mystery Heroes. And how much more fun I have switching heroes instead of maining one character for hours. Thought about it some more, and realized that I like and excel at multitasking, or flexing roles. In life in general. 
I see it in my hobbies and how I enjoy things. Idk if it's indecision, but I often find myself bored of one thing, and without hesitation start something else. Sort of a jack of all trades kinda thing. I'm not sure when that particular trait took root in me. But my hard preference to flexing heroes in Overwatch kinda had me thinking about it lol. While I'm glad of my adaptable skillset, it also feels messy to me. I also like direction. But I can't gather my thoughts for shit lol. I think that might have to do with skipping from one thing to another- kind of a "what do I do now" thing? Maybe? idk. lowkey a Little, lol. uwu.

Also, this Zarya skin is beautiful and will probably be the skin I'll use on her for all eternity.
