I have so many icons that it is sometimes hard for me to be able to figure out exactly which one I will use for any entry-- today, it will be Utena I suppose. It was a good day, and I definitely feel like I've revolutionized the world-- or at the very least, my life.

Work was awesome and it continues to be awesome. It is nice to go to a workplace where people ask you 'how' you are doing. Like my lead looked over at me in between calls and was like, "Hey Nia-- how you doing today?" and it just made me feel good, because I felt valued as a person-- and I continually feel valued as a teammate. I even had a call that was pretty awesome. It was involving some man's server, and when I caught the call-- he was pretty upset, however not only did I manage to DE-ESCALATE him (he was at a 10, and I got him to about a 3), but he found out that the problem was on his end and he was super OKAY with that.

So at the end he was like "Nia, I'm gonna miss you!", and my response was "Gee Xen, I'm gonna miss you too!". And my lead heard it and was like "Nia, I've taken over 400k calls and never once have I ever heard someone say that they would miss me" and then Chase proceeded to tell my supervisor about what he heard. It was definitely interesting, but it made me feel awesome!

So now, on to the fannish stuff-- compartmentalized because I can do that in a way that I am unable to do that with real life.

+ICONS (have my paintshop up, and a set of icons that I need to do to personally challenge myself)
+TEXTURES (based on opal, from a few opal stock photos)
+Episode 19 of The Ancient Magus Bride-- Elias is so fricking adorable, in fact that entire anime *keyboard smash*
+Finish Ephraim's side of the Let's Place for Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones -- shhh don't judge, too much media-- too little time
+Tales of Vesperia-- have I mentioned I love Raven? Seriously, I love him-- but OH MY GAWD, PATTY TOO ADORABLE JUST UGH!

And just throwing it out there-- for y'all who are new to DW and want some icons, I am currently taking commissions over at hiraethe-- so if you like my style, hit me up! I love making icons for friends!

Aww, that's so great. I absolutely love your first paragraph and yay, having a good day at work! :3

Ahh, I hope you enjoy Ephraim's route. I definitely like his (even if I will always sing high praises of his sister's), and the ending... hnghh. Right in the heart every time.

The work stuff is great. I remember before when work wasn't going too well, so it's nice to hear how much happier you are in your new environment. Good on you for taking that chance and running with it.

I definitely like the characters in Sacred Stones-- I did get very attached to Lyon-- because I am attracted to those people who are just really really good-- and then they get seized by something deep inside and it changes them and devours them. I also really like Knoll even though he is a one up character (so far) and he reminds me of Lyon-- so until I know more about him, he's going to be Lyon's secret little brother or something---

I don't know-- trying not to go crazy until I actually finish the let's play of the game tho

Haha, feel free to go crazy. ;)

That's the fun of it.

Knoll and Lyon are pretty good boys. I'm fond of them both, and while I'm happy to have Yet Another Eirika in Fire Emblem Heroes, I do find it bs that she ended up taking what should have been Knoll's weapon (≖ᴗ≖✿) I hope someday we get him... My favorite thing about Heroes is seeing all the new voice actors for the characters so it'd be fun to know who is picked for Knoll.

Though I'm still holding out faith for Forde and Cormag

I am so happy that work has been going well for you! You ARE awesome, my friend! ♥

Lol, I am so with you on having a hard time picking icons to use sometimes. :)

Woot for icon- and texture-making, and yay for fandom things too! ♥
