Aside from the textbooks I'm keeping, I can at last throw everything away from a year's worth of college. Held onto all of it for that state exam and it definitely came in handy for studying. But holy stacks of papers and filled out notebooks EVERYWHERE. It blows my mind just how much paper I had to go through xAx
It feels so good to be able to clear out this clutter~! I almost dont know how to have a clean bedroom anymore with how much it was covered in important documents and class piles lmao


OH also, I passed my state exam. I realize I hadn't announced it here outside of a thread I was hanging out in!
So hopefully within a week or two, depending on how long things process, I should have my massage license officially

Lmao yes that would indeed suck
I"ll make sure to set a reminder on my phone
"dont forget phalanges" XD

I very much am! Now I just gotta wait until a thursday appointment to get my fingerprints done, to send off alongside some transcripts and my license application :O
then boom, I can work <3
I'm so exciteddddd

Thank you! I felt so nervous while I was taking it, the content felt so strange the way everything was worded. So I couldn't really get a good feel for if I was understanding the questions well enough, so I wasn't confident at the end, but then they were like "congrats you passed!" and I died happy lol

I'm back!
AND I PASSED MY EXAM! :vanora-celebrate:
now I can apply for a massage license

Oh man, one more hour before I leave for my test. THis day went by so fast, I read so much... xAx
Its an hour's drive to the facility and then its tiiiiime

Can you answer while you cook?
Like if you need to chop anything, chop it all first before turning any heat on so you can focus without a knife in hand if he/she calls xD

I always want pasta

or noodles

Yeah, maybe? I can try replacing the meat with pasta xD
everything goes good with pasta

Yeah, like I have this asian meatball recipe (idek if its authentically asian, I got it off a hoisin sauce bottle) that I mash ground beef and ground pork together.
I might try it with ground turkey and/or chicken and see if it tastes close enough to the same. Much of the flavor comes in the seasonings and sauce mixture anyways O:

chili con carne would be harder to mod since its really catered to the heavy ground beef flavor
but I could technically simply eliminate meat from it entirely

Yeah, I'm trying to quit too so I can encourage him. I dont usually eat red meats lately anyways, but a good portion of my recipes rely on ground beef so I'm gonna have to make some modifications xD
He's not requiring me to change anything of course, I just want to try

Yeah its not the best for cholestrol.. but it feels better to eat than greasy or fried foods. Thats kinda why he's leaned toward it, cause we still feel energetic after eating rather than lethargic and bloaty lol
He full quit red meats starting this week actually

Also loving how my avi becomes so broken in the shop preview of this item

Hahaha I've introduced my partner to restaurant-style ramen so I've been eating so much good ramen these days <3
He used to be a greasy burger boy, but now he's always wanting asian dishes like me lmao
