SMALL VICTORIES HAS RETURNED FROM WAR!

The premiere is here and the season (which is 10 episodes long) will release every Thursday for, would you believe it, 10 weeks!

Five months after Marisol was stabbed things are looking up. Well, anything that's not being dead is "looking up".  She has been sober for 142 days (though the doctors did give her a lot of very strong painkillers so...there's that), she's planning a wedding (though Nina keeps moving it up because her Dad is getting worse so....that's another thing), also she's working as a private chef (and maybe getting a little too close with her clients), but hey, Aaron didn't kill her and I think we should really focus on that! That seems good. Things are good!

Starring: Mo McKynzie as Marisol. Yodeet Nymberg as Nina. Chinna Palmer as The Stranger. Lolita Marie as Summer. Akanimo Effang as Host. Cody Smith as Aaron. B. Narr as Jack.

Crew: Jade Madison Scott (Writer/Creator/Producer). Nathan Gabriel (Director/Sound Designer/Script Consultant). Virginia Wilson (Supervising Producer). Will Stokes (Associate Producer). Michael Rondstadt (Assistant Sound Designer). Nicholas Feldman (Assistant Sound Designer). Sterlyn Termine (Composer). Julia Patrick (Logo Artist)

Day 6: Simple Pleasures and Quiet Wins (っ◔◡◔)っ

Yo, internet void, checking in for Day 6! Today was a pretty low-key affair, but hey, sometimes those are the best kind of days.

Started off with a car wash for my trusty Innova - gotta keep her looking spiffy! Speaking of things I'm proud of, I haven't had a cigarette in two whole days! Small victories and all that, right?

Confession time: I also spent a good chunk of the day napping. Not gonna lie, sometimes sleep is the best therapy.

Later on, I played chauffeur for my sister, shuttling her between Gateway and Cubao Expo. Sibling bonding at its finest, haha. Picked her up a few hours later, and we capped off the night with a classic dinner combo - pizza and chicken. Simple but satisfying!

Overall, it was a pretty uneventful day. Still feeling that same weird mix of emotions from yesterday, but it's more of a dull ache now, not a sharp pain. Maybe that's progress? Who knows.

For now, I'm content to embrace the quiet, the simple pleasures. A clean car, a good playlist, a warm meal - these are the things that keep me going.

(P.S. Still here, still reading. And I truly appreciate it. You guys are the wind beneath my wings...or maybe the comfy blanket I'm currently hiding under. Either way, thanks for being awesome.)

Omg, I can't believe how a journey that started with an AI art addiction led me to discover a community I feel so comfortable with! 💖✨

It all began when I got heavily addicted to AI generating and made hundreds of pictures, day and night just not to feel, just not to collapse... But as much as I loved creating, it led me straight and deeply into a financial crisis 💸 I turned to Claude AI for help, and it suggested selling my best AI creations on Redbubble. I figured, why not? I'm really proud of some of them, and even though I felt a bit ashamed for using AI for therapy and my dark and painful sides I never had the caurage to show before... It was too expensive (it is still cheaper than a professional listener), I decided to give it a shot... Hoping to gain back a bit of money to hold my head above the water. Redbubble suggested sharing my art here

and that's when I stumbled upon the most incredible platform, filled with people I can relate to on so many levels. 🥰 Even though I haven't sold anything on Redbubble in 3 months (maybe I never will, and that's okay - just another cool mistake in my life journey 😅), I feel happiness. The wonderful people in the private chat brighten my day and make it all worth it.

Through this journey, I am meeting here new friends, discovering fascinating perspectives, and connecting to a supportive community that I never knew I needed. 🙌 So even if I'm at the rock bottom of my life right now, I feel incredibly lucky and grateful to have you.

Thank you for existing, everyone! You've made this wild ride better for me. 😊💫

Sometimes I have bad days but then I think... it could be worse.

The worst kind of flirting. (On the bright side it's integral to your character progression.)

"Life of an Etsy Shop Owner: Expectation vs. Reality"

Expectation: Posting a new item and getting orders from thousands of eager customers, all while sipping coffee and planning my next product line. ☕✨

Reality: Spending 30 minutes debating whether “Funny Mug” or “Hilarious Coffee Cup” is a better keyword. Refreshing my shop stats like they’re the stock market, celebrating a like as if I just got a Nobel Prize.

Me to my shop stats: Please just tell me someone loves my work.

One thing's for sure, every small victory counts! And I wouldn’t trade it for anything… except maybe better SEO knowledge and a bottomless coffee cup. 😅

This is sorta how I'm conceptualizing Small Victories Season 3, because I realized a few months ago that Marisol is haunted by her past and her future and that makes for some good storytelling.

stories where memory is a character. stories where the past is alive and haunting you. stories where you are your own ghost

Feeling Accomplished in a Tiny Way

With the terribly scorching heat indices we’ve been suffering in the past weeks in the Philippines, it can be so easy to feel exhausted, drained and in some cases **ehem** hot-tempered. They say before you get a HEAT STROKE, you have most likely been through HEAT CRAMPS and HEAT EXHAUSTION first, but for the past 2 weeks, I honestly believe that I’ve skipped the cramps and went straight to…

Celebrate your small wins too.

I have now adopted this as my Nina and Marisol head canon. Marisol being the boyfriend and Nina being the girlfriend. (Marisol's a chef dang it! She may be irresponsible but she has fantastic taste!)

How To Get Your Dream Job

🌟 Tumblr Post 🌟

Hey Tumblr fam! 💙✨

Let's take a moment to appreciate the simple joys in life, like that incredible feeling when you finally get home after a long, exhausting day. You kick off your shoes, let out a sigh of relief, and embrace the glorious freedom of taking off your pants (and any other restrictive attire!) to unwind in the comfort of your underwear. 🩲🏠

It's like a ritual, a sacred act of liberation that allows you to shed the day's burdens and responsibilities. And it's even more special when I think about my character Tray Akinox from my comic book series, "The Dragon's Prince." Tray is a hardworking individual who juggles not one, not two, but a whopping nine jobs just to make ends meet. 🐉💼💼💼💼💼💼💼💼💼

In a world where being human is not easy, Tray's story resonates with many of us. It reminds us of the struggles we face, the sacrifices we make, and the resilience we possess. Tray's character embodies the determination to overcome challenges and find solace in the little moments of bliss, like the freedom of lounging in comfortable underwear after a grueling day. 🌟🙌

So, here's to Tray Akinox and to all the hardworking individuals out there who keep pushing forward, no matter how tough the world may seem. Remember, it's the small victories, like the sweet relief of shedding those pants, that make life a little brighter. Stay strong, stay true to yourself, and keep embracing those moments of pure relaxation. You deserve it! 🌈✨

How to Stay Motivated When Managing Diabetes

Introduction:

Living with diabetes can be challenging, requiring consistent efforts to manage blood sugar levels and maintain a healthy lifestyle. However, staying motivated throughout this journey is crucial for long-term success. In this blog post, we will explore some effective strategies to help you stay motivated when managing diabetes.

Set Realistic Goals:

Setting realistic goals is essential to stay motivated. Break down your larger goals into smaller, achievable targets. For example, aim to lower your HbA1c by a certain percentage over a specific period or commit to regular physical activity for a set number of days each week. Achieving these smaller goals will provide a sense of accomplishment and keep you motivated to pursue larger goals.

Educate Yourself:

Knowledge is power when it comes to managing diabetes. Take the time to educate yourself about the disease, its complications, and the latest advancements in treatment. Stay updated with reputable sources, attend diabetes education classes, and consult with your healthcare provider for guidance. Understanding the impact of your actions on your health can serve as a powerful motivator.

Surround Yourself with Support:

Building a strong support system is crucial for staying motivated. Share your journey with family, friends, or a diabetes support group. Their encouragement, understanding, and empathy can provide a boost when you need it most. Additionally, consider involving your loved ones in your diabetes management by educating them about the condition and how they can support you.

Celebrate Small Victories:

Recognize and celebrate your achievements, no matter how small. Whether it's reaching your weight loss target, consistently monitoring your blood sugar, or making healthier food choices, acknowledge these victories along the way. Rewarding yourself for your efforts will help maintain motivation and reinforce positive behaviors.

Track Your Progress:

Keep a record of your blood sugar levels, physical activity, and other relevant measurements. Use apps, journals, or digital tools to track your progress. Monitoring your results over time can provide valuable insights into your diabetes management and help you identify patterns or areas for improvement. Witnessing positive changes can fuel your motivation to stay on track.

Seek Professional Guidance:

Consulting with healthcare professionals specializing in diabetes care is crucial for effective management. Regularly visit your primary care physician, endocrinologist, or a certified diabetes educator to discuss your progress, address concerns, and receive personalized guidance. If you're seeking specialized hormone clinic services, consider Dr. Amol Bukan at the Hormone Clinic for expert care.

Conclusion:

Managing diabetes requires consistent effort, but with the right mindset and strategies, you can stay motivated on your journey to better health. Set realistic goals, educate yourself about diabetes, build a support system, celebrate small victories, track your progress, and seek professional guidance when needed. Remember, motivation is a key ingredient in achieving long-term success in diabetes management. With determination and the support of healthcare professionals like Dr. Amol Bukan at the Hormone Clinic, you can effectively manage your diabetes and lead a fulfilling life.
