BLOG -- Recap of January

January started off very busy... then a bit slow... then super, super cold. My mind's been checked out almost all week this week, 'cuz all I think about when I get to the office is getting back home as soon as possible.

I can't wait for Spring to come!


Outings/Events in January:
- Hung out with friends overall x5.

- Had a dentist appointment... ;__;

- Played a prank on a co-worker friend. I definitely needed more eyes! Hehehe :3

- Did an escape room with some co-worker buddies and family. We did Nyctophobia at Omescape Scarborough. We made it out, wheeee!

- Survived a sad, sad snow day. It started snowing around noon and didn't stop at all for the rest of the day.

- Had a revelatory dream. I won't share it, hahaha.

Had a last-minute vacation day.

- Stayed over at my sister's place x0.


Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn achievements / news: 
-My subscription is still expired.

Final Fantasy: Brave Exvius achievements / news: 
-My rank is currently 176 (yay I can leave the game alone for 14 hours 50 mins)
-I took a risk and chose Ang from that Fan Festa summon


Exposures:
- (Restaurant): Star King -- This has pretty yummy fried rice.

- (Food place): Cacao 70 -- It's pricey, but I enjoyed what I tried.

- (Mobile game): Food Fantasy -- I tried this out while searching for SINoALICE. The story and characters aren't very interesting, but the unit designs are really nice and cute.


Finished...
Watching:
- (Movie): Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse -- This was amaaaaaaaazing.

- (Movie): Cannibal Holocaust -- I steeled myself before watching this movie. The animal mutilation scenes were horrible and some scenes were really off-putting. But -- I really liked the overall message. If you can get past the uneasy parts, there is a bit more to this movie.

- (Movie): Good Time -- Before watching the movie, I had no idea what it was about. It's really well put-together. Robert Pattison at his best!

- (Movie): Say Anything -- It was okay. I liked a few of the messages.

- (Movie): Split -- This was very, very good. Highly recommended, for an M.Night Shyamalan movie!

- (Movie): Main Street -- I watched this for Colin Firth. It had potential, but overall -- a terrible movie.

- (Movie): The Florida Project -- While I think I understood the main idea, and can acknowledge that it was shot well, I didn't really like the movie. I thought Moonee and her mother were so annoying.

- (Movie): Brigsby Bear -- This was a very interesting concept. I really enjoyed it.


Playing:
- (PS4): Psycho-Pass Mandatory Happiness -- I reached one ending so I'm counting it. It was a little slow to get into, but gets interesting later on. I wish I knew that the game came after the anime... but oh well. I'll be playing this more times to see the other endings.


Reading:
- (Book): Your name. by Makoto Shinkai -- This was very light and enjoyable. It's very similar to the movie with several nuances.

- (Book): Your name. Another Side: Earthbound by Arata Kanoh -- It was a bit slow-paced at certain parts, but overall it was very interesting. Yotsuha's perspective was really amusing.

That's it for January. Here are a few pics I took this month.

A crepe from Cacao 70.
It was yummy!

The horrible snow day we had. I was so "traumatized" that 
I requested a last minute vacation day the next day.

A random pic from Psycho-Pass.
This was totally unexpected!
