 I've been curious about the origins behind @Splashee's display name for a while now. Does he like water or was it just a random name?

In early 2019, I was working on my OC, and needed a name, and I was cooking a stew dinner and accidentally dropped a big onion that splashed all over the table. I said "Onion Splash" out loud, and that sounded like a good name (since ponies usually have a double word name, like "Starlight Sparkle"). You can find Onion Splash in my name history at the forum as well.

I kept shortening it as Splashe, but the pronunciation really requires two ee's to sound right.

I was TOTALLY wrong! Thank You for that interesting backstory, BFFFF!

I had to check and make sure you weren't making up the "Onion Splash" part.

Thinking and debuting if I should spend $80 on a "Good Smile Company" figma figure. They're around 6 inches tall only and I wish it would be larger for what's worth..buuuut I really like this character a lot...and it's the only descent figure with a price below $100 since I want to avoid spending over an $100 or more from a different brand to buy this character figurine...buuuuut $80 for a freaking 6 inches figure??? buuuut i really love this character.. And seriously I could've spend $80 on more important things than some figure...hmmmm the dilemma.

I watched a few episodes of Dan Vs., and I find it to be a pretty good show. I wish I started watching it a decade ago.

I'm feeling a little sleepy but I also wanna play video games... Maybe I'll play some Closers before taking a nap.

Successfully took a cold shower when it is -12 celcius out. It feels interesting, since I actually feel warm when I am taking a cold shower. A goal that I have for the future is to remove anxiety, worry, etc as much as possible. I am building up my emotional resilience.

I am trying to do the same thing, minus the cold shower.

Not thinking about anything in particular, just enjoying my time at the moment.

[DubWolf 17,264]

Wondering if I'll actually be able to get on the move and getting the clock started before the 5-year mark....

 

Honestly for a while I've just been pissed off (sometimes) I just usually do a good job of "not thinking about it". Have to think "small picture" and live in the moment than get overwhelmed by the reality of it all. Again, I really hope the clock starts before the 5-year mark.

Right now I'm thinking about my boyfriend and how much I miss him now. I wish I could spend Valentine's Day with him but can't since he has work today and won't be visiting until the 25th of this month which is taking forever to get here and I'm not sure why. I feel like me waiting and wanting time to speed up is why it probably feels like it's taking forever since it technically is.

Does that also go for calling/texting him? Or is it more along the lines of “it’s better to see him in person” for you?

I really need to trim my nails before they become witch nails

Thinking about making bread.

I'm thinking about going to my kitchen and making some chopped up strawberries alongside some whipped cream since I'm very hungry right now.

I mean me and him text and call each other on Facebook everyday but I prefer seeing him in person obviously. I've never had a normal relationship before so when he visited me for the first time, it was a crazy feeling and it made me really happy since I had someone to hug or just lay against. There were obviously other things too but I think it would be too much to say in a publicly visible thread. 

I tend to bite my nails constantly over my nerves and just as a habit so I don't have to worry about long nails too often but when you said "witch nails", I kind of just imagined really long wolverine claws which would be interesting since I feel like nails that long would break off as soon as you touched anything. 

I'm also thinking about making some chopped up strawberries with whipped cream since I'm getting kind of hungry now and if I wait any longer, I feel like my stomach is going to turn into a monster from Silent Hill and eat me alive from the inside.

Ooh, that makes sense. Understandable 

Hah, my nails were actually nowhere near that creepy length but I can’t stand the white part of my nails for some reason! 

Strawberries and cream sounds so good   Makes me wanna go eat something but my stomach is trying to be macho and resist food. Probably has to do with all my holiday eating.

 

I really hope this online meeting appointment for math is the last one I have to schedule

I get that since I have the same problem but since I use a keyboard and mouse quite often, I don't think I could deal with them being a centimeter from my fingers constantly. That's also fair since I have that problem sometimes but I'm trying to substitute my hunger with strawberries instead of chips since I need to lose some weight if I'm being honest. 

Also is it an appointment for a test or is it something else? I'm just a little curious since I've had online schooling before and I probably wouldn't go with it. I love having online friends but I feel like school would be easier in person for me... Though the more I think about it... I don't know if my social anxiety would like it too much so maybe online would be a better option for me as far as school goes.

I need to do better with eating too, I’ve had cupcakes for three days straight 

My math class requires that I do a certain number of extra online meetings, which go like a normal class but the only grade is a participation grade. The whole concept is stupid but it is easy points, still.  I would still recommend in person school. You won’t get to know too many people that well online and it’s a lot harder to get help with classes.

Uuuh, weeellll 

They can only tell during the exams that require a webcam, but other than that there isn’t much way of knowing.

 

I’m thinking about how nice it’s been to relax this past month.

Yeah, I think the best way to develop better eating habits is to try something healthy once a week. My mom told me to try and eat a vegetable once a week though I don't know if I'll do that since I hate most vegetables. I do love strawberries though so I'll definitely eat more of them so that way I don't default to eating chips all the time like I normally do. My boyfriend Jacob also told me to avoid eating when your not actually hungry so I'm taking that tip to heart as well. A little fun fact about strawberries: They boost heart, brain, and digestive health which is nice though I'm sure most fruits and vegetables have those qualities. 

Huh... That definitely is strange if I'm being honest but points are points I suppose. That is also fair since if you have a question or two during in person school, you can just walk up to the teacher and ask them yourself instead of contacting them via phone or email or whatever other way you can contact them online. I would be scared at first but I would adjust eventually, just it would take some time to get used to being in school and around people again.

Just cupcakes for three days straight? Are you the fourth Pie sister!? 

Seriously, I'm thinking about that Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers trailer but I don't know what to think about it.
