    Ooh! There's a rockwall gym near my home but it's so pricey so I've always written it off as an option. But if I could find a more affordable gym I absolutely would take on such an endeavor! I used to love rock climbing at camp and got pretty good arm strength from it. I think you should go for it!

    LOVELY!!! I wish I had a piano in my house so I could practice again. I played for 10 years but kinda dropped it once I went off to college. I would love to re-learn the songs I once loved playing. Piano used to calm me so much. I hope you enjoy it!!

    Yeah I think the cost is a huge factor for me too. There's only one place that's accessible to me so I don't really have much of a choice, but I've always tried to avoid getting stuck into subscriptions that I can't cancel.

    I've started trying out acrylic paints! I've found painting to actually be pretty relaxing.

    I recently started trying to teach myself how to do my own nails! I always have wanted to do this but never really tried so I sat down and started making press on sets! Here are a few I made while practicing

    Girl, those are stunning.

    I have a really good friend who's super into polishes. OBSESSIVELY so. I don't think she paints press ons, she just paints her own natural nails, but never anything to this degree. I love. You're super talented at yet another thing!

    Is there any market to sell things like this?

    Awwww, thank you so much! <3

    Honestly, I would love to do more with my natural nails like your friend but mine are very thin and break so easily. I also used to get acrylic nails because I have always loved the look of fake nails. However, my nails will come off the bed if I wear them too long :c

    That's why I started making press on sets! They come off easier, they don't damage my actual nail, and I can reuse them with some work! Also to answer your question there is a big market for them! If you get good enough I have seen people sell them on etsy or their own websites for $70-$100+ for one set! I even seen someone selling faerie neopets set on etsy they hand painted! That was one thing that made me really want to try myself because I could make something out of it if I got good enough. It will just take some practice c:

    Plz advise us when this becomes a reality and share pix ;_;

    you know when someone asks "why are you so dressed up"
    and you have to literally explain to them that this is who you are



    asking the important questions



    thanks @extraterrestrial for capturing my essence

    anyway here's my petpet
