Reading
  • I finished reading Mutation by Roland Smith (Marty & Grace #4). Enjoyed it! Did not enjoy the little bits of het romance pushed in at the end, but it does make me want to write fic for my ship instead...
  • Ficwise, I've been reading a lot of VegasPete and JunDylan. Currently I'm reading a long JunDylan fic that's very sweet and soft and it's making a rough week a little more bearable.
Watching
  • The roommate and I finished Peaceful Property. Such a good show!! Sad and heartfelt and wonderful. I ended up not really being bothered by it being more of a bromance than a BL since they did keep referencing them (jokingly, but still) in couple-y ways and also TayNew's chemistry is just so good.
  • The roommate and I started watching MuTeLuv. We've watched the first two and a half stories of the anthology. First one was super cute, love SeaKeen. Second one was bonkers but fun, and I really liked seeing Nani for the first time. Third story is... well, I wasn't expecting all the gross out humor tbh. Not sure if we'll finish it or skip to the next story.
  • The roommate and I started watching Running Man Thailand. First episode was hilarious and so fun! I love Tay, Daou, and Jeff even more now lol
  • The roommate, best friend, and I watched the latest episode of Cat for Cash. Cute, nothing much else to say.
  • The roommate, best friend, and I watched the latest episode of Duang With You. The TeeteePor dynamic is great, I'm loving them together.
  • The roommate, best friend, and I watched the last episode of Dare You to Death. Oh man, it was not very good lmao JoongDunk and unhinged!Sing were great, but wow, the show suffered a lot from bad directing and underfunding.
  • The roommate, best friend, and I watched the latest episode of Yesterday. Some interesting things coming into play with other characters! And some interesting glimpses into Vier and VierKelvin's past.
  • The roommate, best friend, and I watched the latest episode of My Romance Scammer. JuniorMark and OhmPoon are both so good and I love how the two relationships are developing so differently.
  • The roommate, best friend, and I watched the first episode of Only Friends: Dream On. Good so far, looks like there will be lots of fun drama! Worst part of the episode was Mix making eye contact with the camera during the sex scene, was not expecting how uncomfy that would be XD
  • The roommate, best friend, and I watched more of My School President. Having fun! And also a little sad, because WinnySatang announced their breakup this week, and then we got to the first episode where Satang shows up :(
Listening
  • The No Way by LYKN fixation continues...
Writing
  • Wrote a couple thousand words on the ArmTae fic I started last week. I think it's going to end up much longer than I originally thought lol But I'm enjoying working on it!
  • Wrote some song lyrics.
Learning
  • Nothing.

Reading
  • I finished Chupacabra by Roland Smith (Marty & Grace #3). I like this one a lot, though I do wish there was more of the actual chupacabra lol
  • I picked back up and finished Dolphin Watch by John Vornholt (Dinotopia Digest Novels #15). I found one of the characters pretty annoying for much of the book, but I did enjoy it a lot. The ocean setting was really interesting, since it doesn't come up a whole lot in other Dinotopia stuff except in relation to the dolphins!
  • I started reading Mutation by Roland Smith (Marty & Grace #4). I don't remember much of this one, but it's fun!
  • Ficwise, I've mostly been reading VegasPete. Lots of omegaverse for some reason, guess that's just what I'm in the mood for.
Watching
  • The roommate and I finished Lover Merman. What a terrible show lol We watched the first six episodes pretty close together and then took a break to watch our weeklies, and I don't know if it was that break to watch actually good shows or what, but the last two episodes were absolute garbage. I agree with some ppl I've seen online saying the show should have been about Ping, that would have been a much more interesting and engaging story.
  • The roommate and I watched Still 2gether, the sequel to 2gether. It wasn't great, but it was better than the original show! At least we finally got to see Mike and Title kiss :)
  • The roommate and I started watching Peaceful Property. Still surprised it's not an actual BL bc it's definitely got the vibes. But oh my god, how did no one tell me how sad it is?? Like, it's also so, so good, but damn.
  • The roommate, best friend, and I watched the latest episode of Cat for Cash. I'm kind of feeling like this show has no real substance, but it is cute and FirstKhaotung are very sweet. Satang finally showed too, which was fun!
  • The roommate, best friend, and I watched the latest episode of Duang With You. Cute and silly, and I'm really enjoying TeeteePor's dynamic. But wow, what a tone shift for NorthOtto! Very interested to see what's happening there.
  • The roommate, best friend, and I watched the latest episode of Dare You to Death. Prevailing theory wins out! Not mad about it, though I am interested to see more of how it shakes out. Funniest part is that the cops really did not solve shit lol
  • The roommate, best friend, and I watched the latest episode of Yesterday. Continues to be bonkers, though I'm starting to feel there's a bit too much business talk sometimes. One character seems to be maybe dead this episode, and I'm really hoping he's not...
  • The roommate, best friend, and I watched the latest episode of My Romance Scammer. Shit's starting to hit the fan! I'm really loving Yu and the OhmPoon dynamic, which I'm very happy about since this is their first show together.
  • The roommate, best friend, and I finished Kidnap. The best friend seemed to like it, which I was very happy about bc it's one of my favorites! I ended up going through the entire tag on tumblr, then the entire OhmLeng tag as well. Once again so sad about them :(
  • The roommate, best friend, and I started watching My School President. Rewatch for the roommate and I, but this was the only way we could get the best friend to watch it bc she's not really into school dramas.
  • Finished up everything I had recorded for the Olympics except for the closing ceremonies. Women's figure skating was excellent.
  • The roommate and I watched Man Suang. Interesting movie! Can't say I really liked it, but interesting even though I didn't know anything about the time period and politics happening. I had been under the impression there was at least some romance, I guess just bc Mile and Apo are in it, but there's really not lol
Listening
  • I've been slightly obsessively been listening to No Way by LYKN. I liked it alright the first time I listened, but I think it's become one of my favorites of theirs now!
Writing
  • I finished writing an OhmLeng fic that I'd started after the first time we watched Kidnap, since I'm freshly in my OhmLeng feels again. It's kind of wildly self indulgent in a very nothing-actually-happens way, but I'm happy with it!
  • I started writing an ArmTae omegaverse mpreg fic bc I've been reading a bunch of KinnPorsche omegaverse mpreg lol Will anyone but me be interested in it? Unlikely, but oh well.
Learning
  • Read an interesting article about body image and disordered eating in figure skating.
