what do you put in a blog?

honestly I have no idea lol

I never feel like my life is interesting enough for a blog, you know? I don't do anything fun or go on adventures or anything. I think the most interesting thing I've done recently is get a second set of ear piercings, which admittedly was a highlight. I've wanted them for a long time, and I had enough impulsive energy to get them done. But then, of course, two days later I got one caught on a shirt and nearly ripped it out of my ear one way or the other. It's still sore, but I'm trying not to touch it or bother it too much so that it will heal quickly. The final goal is to have three lobe piercings on both, and then have a helix on one side, which I think would look pretty badass.

I've also been reading Chihayafuru, and I'm just about done. It's been so hyped and I finally gave in to the peer pressure, and unfortunately it lives up to it. When I started reading, the karuta looked so familiar, and I realized that I actually own a set of iroha karuta. I'd bought them as a souvenir when I went to Japan in 2010! So that was pretty cool.

I've been trying to read more shoujo and josei manga, or rather, more manga in general. I used to read any manga I could get my hands on when I was younger, because it was harder to come by, and every page was sacred lol. But as an adult, even though it's so much more readily available, it's harder for me to read. I can't read under my desk at work, and then I'm so tired when I get home. Responsibilities are the worst and take up so much time, and during my free time I get decision paralysis, and end up just doing nothing...

Maybe I'll add a manga reading/tracking page on here.........
