Day 4: market day
Masterlist flufftober 🎃
Reblog if you liked it!
You've heard a lot of people say that the honeymoon period only lasts the first few weeks of marriage and that after that things can start to get complicated. But the rule didn’t seem to apply to you.
Maybe it was because you two were young and enthusiastic, because you were too busy missing him to think about arguing, or maybe it was just that you really were made for each other.
You often tried to steal as much time as possible from your husband’s demanding job because being an FBI agent often took him away from you, and sometimes having a few domestic moments was all you both desired.
Grocery shopping was one of those activities that really made you feel like a married couple, and it saved you many trips to the store for food.
“Which do you prefer? Soy or almond milk?”
“Soy has phytoestrogens and more health benefits in moderate amounts. Almond is for people looking to maintain weight, and although it’s healthy, it’s low in protein.”
“Soy, got it,” you said with a small smile at his intellectual response.
Every time it was grocery shopping day, your job was always to push the cart and grab an item or two within reach, but most of the time, Spencer was the one in charge of selecting your groceries. After all, he had a pretty extensive knowledge of the benefits of each food. He always wanted to take care of you, and since he was often away, one way he could do that was by ensuring you were well-nourished.
“Look, I found some tea,” he announced happily, making you look away from the yogurt section in the fridge to pay attention. “Lavender, passionflower, valerian…”
“For your insomnia?”
“Mhm,” he hummed, dropping the boxes into the cart “And some mint and lemon for you.”
“You know me so well,” you smiled sweetly, leaning on the plastic handle, letting him gently caress your cheek.
You two had known each other for so many years that there were details about each other you knew by instinct. You knew his favorite brand of coffee, how he liked it with a specific number of sugar spoons, that you needed to buy him two sets of socks because he always liked mismatched ones, and you knew the exact spot on his head to stroke to help him fall back asleep after a nightmare. He knew you hated wearing shoes indoors, that you had a specific way of sleeping, and that you hated the smell of cinnamon. There were so many things you did as if they were second nature that it seemed impossible to list them all.
The truth is, people at Spencer’s work were quite surprised to find out that not only did he have a girlfriend, but that you were getting married. The event was private, very intimate, and not at all pretentious because that wasn’t your style.
You both had no problem moving into a new, slightly more spacious apartment, now that everything was doubled. But you were managing it quite well, to be honest.
You continued strolling through the grocery store, staying close to your husband, and then remembered you needed some bread. You pushed the cart over and stood next to a woman who seemed to be in a dilemma, staring at two loaves of bread as if trying to analyze which was better.
“The best one is that one,” you said, hoping not to make her uncomfortable. She looked at you confused, so you decided to speak again. “It has less sugar and the necessary carbs for good nutrition. There’s a study about it; it’s true.”
“Oh, sweetie, I wasn’t looking for the healthiest, just the one with the best quantity and price. It’s for my kids. Those children could eat an entire loaf in a day, and I can’t afford that.”
You laughed honestly and gave her a look of understanding. She was a bit older than you but not old enough to be considered elderly.
“I think you’re right.”
“I love my kids, but I won’t lie… sometimes they drive me crazy,” she confessed, and you both laughed again.
“Darling, do you want me to make pasta for you this week? Rossi taught me a recipe that…”
He trailed off when he noticed you had company, and for some reason, he suddenly felt shy.
“That’s fine, love. We can eat whatever you want,” you replied kindly. “I already have something to go with it.”
You winked at him when he noticed the wine you had tossed into the cart, and then he smiled and went off in search of the necessary ingredients.
“Your boyfriend?”
“Husband,” you corrected her. There was a strange pride in saying that.
“Husband! Oh, that’s so sweet. How long have you been married?”
“We’ll be married for four months next week.”
“Young love, so beautiful,” she sighed, as if nostalgic for a time that now seemed too far away. “And he helps you with the shopping?”
“I help him, actually,” you laughed. “He’s the one who selects everything. Before we got married, I had the worst eating habits, and he hated that. So we try to eat better now.”
“Marriages are so different now,” she said, and upon hearing that, you expected to endure a conservative speech and internally dreaded it. “My husband never joins me for things like this; he’s not even interested. In this and in much more, to be honest. And it’s nice to see that girls nowadays can have these kinds of relationships. You know, where they’re supported.”
Somehow, that touched your heart, and suddenly you wished you could hug the woman, but you held back. Then, you looked over at Spencer. He was in the vegetable section, apparently comparing two bags of spinach. You could recognize him in a crowd without a doubt, with his slouched posture, his messy hair (freshly cut, by the way), and his peculiar formal attire.
You had always appreciated having the man in your life, even when you didn’t have a romantic relationship, but you had never stopped to think how lucky you were that he had decided to love you.
“I’m glad too,” you said in what was barely a whisper.
You didn’t say anything else. The woman said her goodbyes kindly, and you just smiled at her, too busy gazing at the man with loving eyes. You stood there watching him, and when he approached, he couldn’t help but notice your strange expression.
“What’s up?”
“Nothing. I just had a very revealing conversation with that woman.”
“Huh, yeah?” he hummed, dropping a collection of items into the shopping cart “And what was it about?”
“About you,” you answered casually, lifting your hands to place them on his chest and then sliding them to his cheeks “Talking to her reminded me that you’re the best husband in the world.”
Carefully and affectionately, you stood on your tiptoes and planted a loud kiss on him. Spencer laughed as his cheeks blushed, returning the favor with a gentle kiss on your forehead.
“I don’t know if I am, but I try.”
“And that’s why I love you,” you confessed sweetly.
And then, it was Spencer who felt lucky.

5/27 candy round-up : fan-meet clues, denying drama rumors and everything else. 💋
happy saturday! it’s time for some treats care of mostly wyb @ chunzhen fan meet. it has really been some time since he did one of these. hopefully, he does more before he gets stuck in filming his new movie. we will be getting a new endorsement from him tomo so that’s one to look forward to!
sharing the compilations link of media from today’s event both from cpf & solo fansites!
moving on to the candies…. ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️
• The most obvious and probably in your face with today’s event is WYB’s look. Aside from the 🦴 necklace chain peeking from time to time and how his hair brings us back to 2019 WYB. The clothes remind us of that striped top he wore in the l’oreal event where he drew the heart with a mole. It’s also maison kitsune, a brand that ZZ wore in a live event recently too. The glasses for his photoshoot also brings us back to WB night 2020. These things could all mean nothing but to us, it brings back memories. The glasses are particularly sus, cause while i do think it may have something to do with his HK glasses endorsement, i don’t see it on their site as a style he is endorsing currently. It surprised a lot ( if not all ) of the fans cause why is he suddenly 🤓??
2. The Camping CPN is at it again. I don’t usually follow other artists so idk if other mention this too specifically but it’s so interesting how these two decided to pick it up at the same time. Or is this some sort of trend in China too? Either way, during the fan meet he said that he does Camp during his breaks. Plus he mentioned that he did go camping somewhere close to the beach.
He also said something that confused people, when they were talking about “moving camping” and wyb explained it’s like moving your house to the camp because of how one brings a lot of things. the he says: “it means he likes to moves many things...a lot of things...then..” so who is he? why so specific as he? Do you camp with someone who brings a lot of things it’s as good as bringing his house along? I don’t wanna judge XZ lol. cause when we see him, he prefers small bags so you would think he’s okay with not carrying too much. but i also have the feeling that ZZ would bring a lot just to be “ready” when they go camping.
3. When choosing the number for the lucky fans, he picked zone A row 2 number 30 and then when he was asked to change it cause there is no #30, he picked row 3 number 20. 2 & 3. His favorite numbers. This is not new, even @ summer surf shop this was noticed. It’s nice to see that it didn’t change. 23 ( Ai Zhan / Love Zhan )
4. As for some food CPN, WYB said again that he can’t cook and that he can only prepare simple dishes. One day, we will know what these are. I’m thinking he’s being humble about it and if he says he “can cook” people may expect more complicated dishes.
When “spiced beef ( or sauced beef ) was mentioned, he smiled. here is the reference to that if you don’t get it.
In one segment of the show, he was mixing fruits with the yogurt drink and he was asked why he chose lychee. He said it’s because he likes it and likes to freeze it to eat. This reminded cpfs of an LRLG post that said WYB peeled lychees for XZ. It’s so specific of a fruit and then it gets “confirmed” like this!
Xiao laoshi thinks the lychees are too high in calories and doesn’t eat them, but Wang laoshi has already peeled them.
WYB: "Didn't you say you wanted to eat it a few days ago?" Brother X specially went to buy it for you."
🧔♂️: “The owner of the stall said that this batch is sweet, try it."
XZ: “Then I'll take it later”
WYB: “Eat later”
• WYB shared about what does when camping and he said what he does is drink coffee. “yes, space out, finish the coffee, and then make another cup, then drink again.”
someone please get him a coffee endorsement! hahahahaha! and the commercial for it will be a scene like this. i really feel for him cause with the statement today from yuehua, this is really a way for him to relax. to camp somewhere quiet and just chill. where no one is following & harassing him.
anyway, it’s cool to see him loving coffee now when in the past he wasn’t seen much drinking it. but at the time of cql filming, xz was the one who loved coffee. is this another way of them adapting each other’s likes?
• While talking about Qingdao ( where the fan meet is taking place ) he was asked if he went there before.. and he stopped and replied, they know better than me. and like he doesn’t even know sometimes what city he is flying to. CPN is that he didn’t want to say when he last went to QD. that’s because there were some talks before that he visited the ADLAD cast ( XZ ) in QD. 🤫
but this could also be him calling out the sisheng fans who “knows” his itinerary and private schedule. 💀💀💀💀💀
There is a new fake story about XZ collecting blind box figures and he complained to WLS that he cannot seem to complete the set he wants. So WLS helped him get it all. This is the set he allegedly wanted :
based on the drama empresses in the palace.
=====================================
The second part of this is Patrick ( XZ counterfeiting account ) refuting the rumors of a drama collab between XZ & Y@ngzi. Whether the account is purely a fan account with contact to XZS or WJJW. An XZS employee or a WJJW employee, the sus part here is how quickly this rumor was denied in XZ’s part. There are so many drama and movie melons coming out and putting XZ’s name on it and they don’t address it. If they do, it’s not as quick as this. 30 minutes from when that melon account rumor started getting traction.
This “speed” of denial is not new, some artists / fan accounts do this too ( like ZLY fan when she was rumored to star in mermaid came out lol ) but it’s uncharacteristic for XZ.
There is also a ! on it, this is the only one with that since the account started posting in 5/2020 where that was used. it’s added for emphasis looks like. you can check the account to see for yourself.
I’m not saying he hates his former co-star. I’d like to think they have a professional relationship as what one would expect with a former co-worker and people who go around the same entertainment circle. But one thing is for sure, he doesn’t want to be associated with her in this capacity. A project using his popularity to get attention when he is already signed on with Condor Heroes. And the last time they went on HS together was about using the same car which last night — y@ngzi was on HS again because that same car was also used by Li Xian ( also a former co-star she is romantically linked with ) proving that the issue was so ridiculous! but somehow, some glass hearted cpfs had doubts. lol. please.
i don’t like talking about our boys and other cps associated to them but his connection with this woman seems to make a lot of cpfs nervous. which i don’t understand. 😂😂😂😂 so i hope those people get some sort of “comfort” with this.
END.

When Danielle found out about this, she threatened to sue for defamation despite the fact that she has been openly bragging on social media for months, and she later started deleting her posts. Some solo fans have been trying to defend her. Initial tweets and followups about this: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] Background Info: - Danielle has brought her son to at least two of Gong Jun’s offline events in the last half year (Hogan 22-11-07 and the Tiffany event last month) where she had him to call Gong Jun dad. There is footage of this, I will not be linking it. Online, she has made posts referring to herself as “Mrs. Gong” and acting as if Gong Jun is her child’s father. A reminder that some of the smears against Gong Jun in spring 2022 included claims of him having secret children; Danielle acting like this could very easily be used as fodder for more similar slander. - Last week, she booked a first class ticket on the same flight to South Korea as Gong Jun, resulting in him moving to an economy seat to get away from her. She also booked a room in the same hotel. His staff does not seem to have done anything about her behaviour. - Due to the fact that her money and obsessive behaviour has allowed her to get a number of close photos and videos of Gong Jun, quite a bit of her content has been passed around fan circles. [screenshots from one recent video that was heavily circulated] Please try to be conscious of whose content you’re spreading; the fact that Gong Jun is a public figure does not mean he doesn’t deserve privacy.
05-05 → The Instagram posted ten photos of “Zhang Zhehan” and a recording studio.
→ One of Gong Jun’s lawsuits against an anti (see 03-17) came to a conclusion, settling with a handwritten letter of apology posted to her Weibo, removal of all slanderous content, and a fine of 30k RMB. The entire lawsuit took nine months. Fan Observations: Despite the anti trying to get out of the fine by claiming financial difficulties, she recently went overseas for surfing lessons and bought a new luxury car.
→ Chrison posted an article about Gong Jun.
→ The Deep Blue* Weibo Supertopic disappeared, with whalers moving to another supertopic that was created in Feburary which does not have active moderation, leading to slanderous posts being made in it by Zhang Zhehan antis. Before disappearing, the Supertopic had largely been filled with people trying to resell “concert” tickets and encouraging others to fake information for travel visas. *Zhang Sanjian album
05-06 → The official Zhang Sanjian accounts on Weibo started directing whalers to a new Supertopic that became available that day. It was pointed out that it takes 1-3 days for a Supertopic to be approved, and found that the new Supertopic was created less than fifteen minutes after the previous one disappeared.
→ The Instagram posted four photos of “Zhang Zhehan”.
→ Tiffany & Co. posted a photo ad featuring Gong Jun.
→ Gong Jun appeared in a livestream for L’Oreal. [full recording] [subbed clips]
Additional Reading: → Pfps for Zhang Zhehan’s birthday: [1] [2] [3] [4] → A reminder of Bluebird’s charity drive for Zhang Zhehan’s birthday.

📢Psychonauts NSR AU Observations, Chapter 2: Cast Tech District📢
Qwasasync-Tower
Milla: Ugh, ever since I was a child. NSR had these things here when they arrived. I still hate these things. Ugh!
Sasha: According to some information. These towers transfer power from the Grand Qwasa through resonance… this… this is actually interesting.
Microphobes
Milla: Ooh! A Microphobe ™! If me and Sasha get like I don’t know… roughly 500 of these. We can have a swarm to take down NSR! Hahaha!
Sasha: I’ve heard about these things. But I’ve never seen a Microphobe ™ swarm. I think that Milla wants to fix this. But I’m not so sure… after all, they are too complex to repair.
Download Now Poster
Milla: “Exclusive for one night only! DJ Cold Comet Crispin’s Underground Rave!” Yeah, no. Just, just no.
Sasha: “One night only concert may be extended beyond one night…” Oh dear. Does this mean he will end up having a ‘One Night Only’ event being extended. I remember the last artist who did this, things were bad. 30 people ended up being hospitalized due to seizures from the flickering lights, there was a traffic jam that lasted for 12 hours, and 25 streets got involved in a black out! That incident was so bad, the artist ended up saying ‘Oops’ in court. It was so bad. So… so… so bad.
Ol’ Timey Radio
Milla: I used to listen to Septentrion with my vovó. She never understood the lyrics. But we laughed and sang the lyrics all day… I still miss those times.
Sasha: These things used to be very popular until NSR stepped in. The newer models were so over-taxed that you ended up finding old models like these.
DJ CCC Plushie (Fanmade)
Milla: Huh, a plushie themed after DJ CCC? Is it bad that I want to keep this?
Sasha: I never knew that DJ CCC had a plush toy of himself. Well, the more you know, the more you’ll learn.
Star Sign Superstars (Fanmade)
Milla: I remember that Arcade Game in high-school! Man, the bossfight against Ophiuchus was hard, even on easy mode… I still have that ban from that Ballblazer Arcade, it wasn’t my fault that I am easily competitive. Ugh!
Sasha: Hmm, 'Star Sign Superstars’? I’ve heard about this game. Thankfully the sequel was far more better. Due to the difficulty level being toned down a bit.
DJ CCC-Branded Frozen Yogurt Machine (Fanmade)
Milla: Oh man, these things look so good! 'Much-of-Choco Mars’, 'Very Berry Venus’? These things are sooo tasty! I just want to have a taste of these! But Sasha won’t let me have one!
Sasha: “Have a wonderful taste of the Galaxy in ten flavors!” Oh dear, can’t let Milla have these. The last time she had frozen yogurt, she passed out in a with paint everywhere.
Dr. Touch-Branded Boombox (Fanmade)
Milla: OMG! OMG! OMG! IT’S A DR. TOUCH-BRANDED BOOMBOX! I MUST HAVE IT! I CAN’T BELIEVE THAT THESE THINGS ARE STILL HERE!
Sasha: Ah Dr. Touch, he was an expert on the keyboard. I’ve heard that he now goes by Otto Mentalis, and he specializes in science. He was also my professor during college. I haven’t told Milla, but I wonder how would she react if I told her.
#submission#nsr#no straight roads#psychonauts#othfic#noart#oh i like the fanmade stuff!#especially the superstar game one#good stuff!#<3<3<3

'The very online showdown between Greta Gerwig’s “Barbie” and Christopher Nolan’s “Oppenheimer” all started with a date: July 21.
It’s not uncommon for studios to counterprogram films in different genres on a big weekend, but the stark differences between an intense, serious-minded picture about the man who oversaw the development of the atomic bomb and a lighthearted, candy-colored anthropomorphizing of a childhood doll quickly became the stuff of viral fodder.
There’s even some disagreement over whether it’s “Barbieheimer” or “Barbenheimer” or “Boppenheimer” or yet another tortured portmanteau — a phenomenon on which the AP Stylebook has yet to offer guidance, but for the purposes of this article will be “Barbenheimer.”
It didn’t hurt that both Nolan and Gerwig have very passionate and very online fandoms eager to join in. Never mind that many of those fans overlap — the memes, allegiances, and T-shirts were just too fun.
Both movies often trend on social media when the other releases a new asset — a trailer, a picture, an interview. On one level, it’s a marketing department’s dream. Awareness could not be higher, the conversation couldn’t be louder, and neither film even has official reviews out yet.
“‘Barbenheimer’ is a marketing gift borne out of social media and I think it’s benefiting both films,” said Paul Dergarabedian, the senior media analyst for analytics firm Comscore. “You’re certainly aware of both movies in a more profound and compelling way than I think might have otherwise happened had they been released on different weekends.”
AMC Theaters reported that 20,000 of its AMC Stubs members had purchased tickets for a double feature. If you’re counting, that’s 294 minutes of moviewatching. Even Margot Robbie — Barbie herself — and Tom Cruise, the star of another summer blockbuster, have started plotting the ideal “Barbenheimer” day.
“It’s a perfect double bill,” said Robbie at her movie’s London premiere Wednesday. “I think actually start your day with ‘Barbie,’ then go straight into ‘Oppenheimer’ and then a ‘Barbie’ chaser.”
Cruise — whose “Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One” opened a little over a week before the “Barbenheimer” showdown — said at his premiere he’d plan to see both on their opening day, likely starting with “Oppenheimer,” which seems to be the internet’s preferred viewing order as well.
“Barbie” actor Issa Rae thinks there’s a reason for that.
“I think that there’s a very specific order that if you see them in. If you see ‘Oppenheimer’ last then you might be a bit of a psychopath,” she diagnosed at the London premiere.
The showdown has made armchair marketing experts out of everyone, quick to scrutinize every move by Warner Bros. and Universal — as though it’s possible to compare two extraordinarily different campaigns.
One has infinite opportunities for very pink, sparkly photo opportunities, whimsical brand partnerships for seemingly everything from underwear to pool floats, large-scale fan events with autograph signings and pop stars like Billie Eilish posting about the soundtrack. In other words, the “Barbie” campaign can go nuclear.
“Oppenheimer” has the bomb, the alluring mystery and the big screen hook, but it’s not the kind of movie that lends itself to, say, a frozen yogurt collaboration.
Is the competition real, though, or just a meme? Some in Hollywood wondered if Warner Bros. plopped “Barbie” on the weekend as a slight to Nolan, who had opened many films for the studio in that corridor including “Inception” and “Dunkirk.” He left Warner Bros. amid its controversial decision to send a year’s worth of movies to streaming and made “Oppenheimer” with Universal instead. But a pointed box office war doesn’t exactly make sense for a studio that has talked recently about wanting to lure Nolan back.
There is an unspoken code of conduct: Never badmouth another studio’s film, publicly at least. This is partly decorum, especially when it comes to “box office showdowns” which all will say are a creation of the press and sideline spectators. But it’s also rooted in some truth: The conventional thinking is that having eyes on one movie is good for other movies — you see their posters and trailers and on some level everyone benefits.
And social media has allowed movie stars to get in on the game, too. Following reports that Cruise was irked the latest “Mission: Impossible” was going to lose its IMAX screens to “Oppenheimer” after only a week, Cruise posted photos of himself and director Christopher McQuarrie standing in front of posters for “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny,” “Barbie” and “Oppenheimer,” holding tickets for each.
“This summer is full of amazing movies to see in theaters. These are just a few that we can’t wait to see on the big screen,” Cruise’s Instagram caption read.
The official accounts for “Indiana Jones,” “Barbie” and “Oppenheimer” responded with supportive notes. Gerwig and Robbie even followed with a similar photo series a few days later, which the official “Oppenheimer” Instagram account reposted in its stories. Charged with playing Oppenheimer, Cillian Murphy told the AP at his movie’s London premiere that “of course” he’d be seeing “Barbie.” The sporting cross-promotion between four studios — Universal, Warner Bros., Disney and Paramount — is something the film business has not quite seen before.
“Not only is Tom Cruise the biggest box office star in the world, but he’s also an incredible ambassador for the movie theater, for the movie theater experience and boosting other movies,” Dergarabedian said. “And that collegial atmosphere within the framework of what is seen as the very competitive box office derby is kind of a nice thing.”
Still, everyone likes a No. 1 debut, and both “Barbie” and “Oppenheimer” reportedly carry $100 million production price tags (not including the millions spent on marketing). As far as box office tracking goes, “Barbie” has it in the bag with forecasts showing that it could open above $90 million in North America. “Oppenheimer” meanwhile is tracking in the $40 million range. Then there’s the wild card of “Mission: Impossible 7’s” second weekend, which could snag second place.
Still even with a second- or third-place start, “Oppenheimer” could be destined for a long, steady, profitable run into awards season. Adult audiences for R-rated movies are not often the ones who pack theaters the first weekend.
Back in 2008, in the midst of the recession, Warner Bros. and Universal faced off on the same July weekend with another Nolan film that went up against a lighthearted confection: “The Dark Knight” and “Mamma Mia!” — both of which went on to be enormously profitable (though Nolan did win the first weekend).
The bigger worry is that what’s been heralded as Hollywood’s post-pandemic comeback summer has had more ups and downs than anyone might have hoped. That’s putting quite a bit of pressure on “Barbenheimer” to overperform and boost the lagging summer box office, which pales in comparison to the bigger issues facing the industry as actors join the writers on strike.
But with just over a week to go, it’s still a source of amusement. Even “Barbie” co-star Will Ferrell threw the gauntlet in his winking way at the London premiere.
“I think the world maybe wants to see ‘Barbie’ a little bit more right now,” Ferrell said. “Just saying!”'

Our two rabbit friends are back and a sweet message posted with some card time candy 10:30 -- 10 from AnMuXi yogurt brand. 10 seems to be common these days. I think it means harmony? Don't quote me on this. The number 9 is also being tossed around a lot. Just an observation. We all get the 30. A few brands posted under 88's stuff with some really interesting times the other day, so I feel some brand daddy's are aware of her beloved numbers. Who knows?
30's message through L'Officiel is a bit more serious: "Time is limited, so don't live for others." Well then...I don't have card information on that post. If you indeed believe this to be true, then let's hope the flowers have mostly bloomed?
The idea that 88 is in a dispute with her company is gaining traction. No one is protecting her from these endless posts about the whale, so this may indicate her being in a limbo state with the company. Let's wait and see.
30 released a whole bunch of things today and I need to go through it; apparently his new character likes heat and birds lol Wink, Wink 30! This would explain all those birds in the post from the Zegna event.

The Overlooked Secret to Stress Relief: Why Sleep Matters
In today’s fast-paced world, stress is almost a constant companion. From juggling work deadlines to managing personal responsibilities, it’s easy to get overwhelmed. But what if I told you there’s a simple, yet often overlooked solution to help manage stress? It’s sleep. Yes, the power of a good night’s sleep cannot be underestimated when it comes to relieving stress.
How Sleep Affects Stress
When we’re stressed, our bodies produce cortisol, the stress hormone. This hormone is great in small doses, as it helps us deal with emergency situations. However, when cortisol levels stay high, it can have long-term negative effects on our mental and physical health. Lack of sleep, for example, increases cortisol production, which keeps you in that stressed-out state longer.
Conversely, when we sleep, our bodies have a chance to repair, reset, and recharge. Sleep helps to lower cortisol levels, allowing your mind and body to relax. A good night’s rest can also enhance your emotional regulation, making it easier to deal with challenges without getting overwhelmed.
The Importance of Quality Sleep
The quantity of hours you spend in bed is not as important as the quality of that sleep. This is where choosing the right mattress can make a huge difference. A Memory foam mattress can offer the perfect balance of comfort and support, aligning your spine and relieving pressure points, which in turn promotes deeper, uninterrupted sleep.
When your body isn’t fighting discomfort or tossing and turning, your brain can enter deeper stages of sleep, where the real restoration happens. This is the phase where stress relief kicks in, and your body starts to heal itself.
Why a Good Mattress is a Game-Changer
So, if you’re lying awake at night, stressing over the day’s events, it might not just be your mind keeping you up. The wrong mattress could be contributing to your discomfort. A memory foam mattress helps cradle your body, relieving pressure points and ensuring that you wake up feeling refreshed rather than stiff and achy. In fact, many top mattress brands like Tempur-Pedic, Purple, and Saatva offer memory foam options specifically designed for stress relief and better sleep quality.
When you sleep on a mattress that supports your body’s natural posture, you’re more likely to experience better, uninterrupted sleep. With that, you’re also giving your mind and body the chance to reduce stress and promote relaxation.
Tips for Better Sleep
Aside from investing in a great mattress, here are a few other tips to improve your sleep and reduce stress:
Create a bedtime routine: Set aside time to wind down before bed. Whether it’s reading a book or practicing relaxation techniques, consistency can signal to your body that it’s time to sleep.
Limit screen time: The blue light emitted from phones and laptops can interfere with your body’s natural sleep-wake cycle. Screen time should be avoided at least an hour before bed.
Stick to a consistent sleep routine: Maintain a regular sleep schedule by going to bed and waking up at the same time each day, including on the weekends.This helps regulate your internal clock and boost sleep quality.
Mind your diet: Avoid heavy meals and caffeine close to bedtime. A light snack, like a banana or a small serving of yogurt, can promote better sleep.
Brands to Consider for Better Sleep
When it comes to upgrading your sleep experience, several brands specialize in providing high-quality mattresses. Grassberrymattress, for example, offers an exceptional range of orthopedic and memory foam mattresses that ensure both comfort and support. These mattresses are designed to promote better posture and relaxation during sleep, helping to alleviate stress.
Conclusion
We often overlook sleep when looking for solutions to stress relief, but it’s one of the most powerful tools we have. By ensuring you get quality sleep, whether through a Memory foam mattress or simple lifestyle changes, you can improve your overall well-being. If you’re ready to experience the stress-relieving benefits of great sleep, consider investing in a mattress that works for you.
For those looking to sleep better, Grassberrymattress offers an excellent selection of comfortable and supportive mattresses that can help you unwind and de-stress. Your body — and mind — will thank you.

Find the Best Ice Cream Vans in Sydney for Your Event
When planning an event in Sydney, whether it’s a birthday party, corporate gathering, or community festival, one thing is certain: Of course, everyone enjoys a dessert once and awhile. Probably the only way to instantly quell your hunger is by getting served by an ice cream van. This is why having an ice cream van at any occasion can bring back a lovely flavor of childhood as well as quench one’s thirst. But where does one get to locate the top most mobile ice cream selling units in Sydney? Here is a highlight of a few types that will help you determine the right one for your event of the occasion.
Why Go for an Ice Cream Van for Your Event?
Ice cream vans present an opportunity of directly serving the guests your carnival in a more practical way. Compared to more conventional catering solutions available at events, an ice cream van is generally way more entertaining for children, as well as for grown-ups. Ice cream is great any time of the year regardless of whether it is a sunny summer’s day or a cool night. Having a mobile service also means that the ice cream can come to you, where your event is, whether it’s at a park, beach or backyard.
Sydney being a city that enjoys its outdoor activities has a number of ice cream van hires for hire to offer its services. Ice cream vans vary from the childhood memories of having ice creams from old ice- cream trucks to luxurious food trailers with elegant flavors made for present day events.
So now that you have a good idea about how to select an ice cream van in Sydney, let’s take a look at what you need to consider when hiring one.
When searching for the best ice cream van for your event, there are several factors to consider:When searching for the best ice cream van for your event, there are several factors to consider:
Variety of Flavors and Treats: The choice of the flavors is paramount in regard to the ice cream available and the related products. Try to fit those that have a great variety of flavors, where basics such as vanilla and chocolate are present along with other varieties. Some vans also have the dairy-free, gluten-free, and vegan menu to serve the needs of all special diets. As well, it is important to ask yourself if the van includes such extras as gelato or frozen yogurt, or even ice cream sandwiches.
Finding the best ice cream van in Sydney for your event is all about matching the vendor to your needs. Whether you’re hosting a small gathering in Campbelltown or a large festival in Penrith, there’s an ice cream van out there
Service Area: Make sure the van for selling ice cream moves within your venue. This is because Sydney is a large city and it is important to ask the vendor if you are to be served at Wetherill Park, Penrith, Campbelltown or any other region where the event is to be conducted. Selecting a local supplier is cost saving and also can guarantee on-time service.
Reputation and Reviews: Check more about the vendor with the aim of getting more information pertaining the same. Try to search for some feedback on-line, read some testimonials or even ask someone if he heard something about the certain company. Any ice cream van which has been in business for sometime will have something good to say about their sales, punctuality and the quality of their products.
Customization and Branding: If you are planning a corporate event or perhaps a themed event of some sort then it may be preferable to hire a van that can be ‘branded’ or ‘themed’ to your particular event. Some of them have solutions for customization, where customers can order wrappers or messages printed on the tubs, to give the personalized fun appeal to ice creams.
Pricing and Packages: The rates for hiring an ice cream van may therefore differ based on the length of the event, number of people in the event and the kind of products to be sold. Some of the vendors prepare their packages in a packaged deal whereby a certain amount is charged depending on the number of servings while others charge on individual items. Some additional questions to consider are: What exactly is included in the price provided ?, whether there could be any other extra charges that are implied which are not shown in the provided price ?.
The Biggest Decisions for Ice Cream Van in Sydney
There are more than enough ice cream van vendors in Sydney with even each trader offering a service in his or her own style. Here are a few options to consider:Here are a few options to consider:
Classic Ice Cream Vans: Such vans carry along the traditional ice cream bell and the basic flavors making them popular with many. Popular and ideal for children and other close ones, they offer variety starting from soft-serve to ice pops.
Gourmet Ice Cream Trucks: For those who want something more exotic they can find gourmet ice cream trucks that sell very specific types of ice cream and sometimes produced with local ingredients. These are great for weddings, business functions or such other related events where you would like to pamper your guests.
Customizable Vans: All event organizers should take note if their event has a particular theme; there are ice cream vans that can be hired together with arrangement. These food contractors can help you in organizing your event by providing foods and drinks aside from branding services; they can also supply thematic decorations in cases such as a corporate event or even a birthday party.
They can make the event you are planning a very special one and all will have sweet success. Thus, when making decisions aimed at the selection of suppliers of extraordinary and exquisite dishes, taking into account such criteria as the variety of flavors, the area of service, popularity, the ability to personalize meals , and price, you can guarantee the pleasant pastime of your guests.
Therefore, whenever you are using an occasion that is going to entail the consumption of some foods, don’t just think of the conventional catering services. Seeing an ice cream van will bring joy, entertainment and an element of childish self-indulgence that will go a long way into making the party awesome. What therefore makes it easier to find the best ice cream van for your event here in Sydney is the many options to choose from.

Sabi ko mga ganito, medyo surprised ako nun, then she said Good daw and then pinakamalupit na sinabi niya is You’re so Beautiful , like insist niya talaga. Then yung may kasama niya Happy lang while talking to me, then ang respond ko na lang ehh You’re Beautiful also. After nun, It made my day talaga kahit puyat ako, Usually Cute lang ang compliments na narereceived ko so this is something new to me, coming from a perspective of a stranger. Of course, I view myself pretty or beautiful as form of my Self-Love, pero iba ang feeling pag random, out of the blue they will say it to you without me trying. Kaya to this Lady, Thank you : ) You Brightened up My Day that time : ) Kileg in a different perspective.

Grabe yung 3days na ito, as in buti na lang tapos na, hirap na hirap ako kumain at mag-open ng mouth. Tapos need na soft-diet lang. Yung 1st day ko ay nag-Laundry pa ako nun.

So madaling araw browse browse na ako, thinking anong brand bibilhin ko, so ayun Philips brand nabili ko look alike ni Sharp Iron. I am just so proud and happy for myself for taking the decision na bumili na lang ng bago agad kaysa mag-msg ako and mang-Hiram, may mahihiraman naman ako but I don’t know why, It’s me, being Independent mindset kicking in, na ayaw ko mag-rely ganun and mang-bother ng iba.

No need to bother people for that thing :) and the fact na I am still in Pain and swollen, kasi kakaremoved lang ng wisdom tooth ko nun.
June 13, 2024 Thursday, so ayun after a week may follow-up consultation ako Kay Doc Fathima, Pang-night shift ako nito, so 6pm umalis na ako house then punta clinic, I dressed up casually lang, but I think may dating yung get-up ko, kasi pag-pasok ko pa lang sa reception inassist agad ako, then Mabilis na check-in , then Paalis na ako nun, I think Pinag-kwentuhan Nila ako ang narinig ko lang is para siyang, so I don’t know anong karugtong nun, hopefully positive naman, but I think it’s positive. So Ayun, nakita na ni Doc ang healing ng wisdom tooth surgery ko, may konting swelling pa, then may dalawang holes sa gums ko now, but it will take 4 weeks to close, new tissue will form. Then ayun, hirap ako mag-open ng mouth like small opening lang, shock si Doctora, tinuruan niya ako mouth exercise para maopen ko widely yung mouth ko. Masakit siya kahapon, but now okay na, hirap na hirap ako i-brush yung tongue ko before kasi di ko maopen yung mouth ko kasi masakit and maga. Sabi nga ni Doc if ever napabayaan ko Ito, ganito na daw forever buti na lang may follow up consultation ako, then sa 7days ko nastock ung food sa hole ng gums. Binigyan naman ako instruction ni Doc like sa right lang ang bite pag kakain. Then irrigate ko using syringe then mouthwash and brushing na din. Basta overall consultation and experience ko kay Doc Fathima as a patient, 10/10, nagagalingan ako Kay Doc, kasi well explained niya regarding sa case ko, then mag-advice pa siya sa akin how to gain weight keme, sinasabi nga niya sa akin Hindi ko line Ito pero, eat daw ako mga egg ganun, eat more daw eklat. Now na naiintindihan ko na Lord Kaya that time na Hindi matuloy tuloy sa Pinas itong wisdom tooth extraction ko 2 yrs ago, Kay Doc Fathima pala talaga ako nakadestined magpa-bunot at covered pa ng Insurance at may Sick leave pa. Unlike if natuloy sa Pinas, consume yung vacation leave ko plus personal expenses pa siya. Galing talaga ni Lord : )
Then after ng check-up Kay Doc, punta ako grocery, I am so happy lang for myself kasi yung laman ng grocery cart ko Hindi na pero junk food, I am really trying to be healthy and get healthy talaga. For ME, MYSELF, SELF-LOVE : )
So ayun, finally nailabas ko na din mga thoughts ko in my head, I feel so satisfied right now, and I must admit, for the past 6yrs na nandito ako sa QA now ko lang naeenjoy yung SOLO Lifestyle ko, Ewan ko, basta nabibili ko naman mga needs ko and sometimes wants din. I will make a separate post about it hehe, So ayun, Thank you Lord, for all the blessings : )

In order of weirdness for me as a certified American:
7. Ranch isn't... it isn't unlike tzatziki, but it is different. Creamy sauce/dressing but spiced different. I dislike both because I dislike most dairy, so I asked my partner. Ranch is more intense with sour cream as a base, very in your face, while tzatziki is much more mellow with greek yogurt as a base.
4. A garbage disposal is a machine that grinds up food scraps into a slurry to flush down the drain. No house with a septic system should have this, so my rural born self didn't see one until we got a house in town. In areas where they are legal (century old pipes in your town? Water shortage? Probably illegal to have) the waste treatment plants are likely to make fertilizer out of the, uh, "processed solids." Yeah, that sounds polite. So the pureed food scraps help with that. The city I live in now sends out info about the water services once a year reminding people not to put cooking oil, feminine products, or baby whipes down the drain because that disrupts the compost and causes clogs. You can do stupid stuff and clog the sink mostly by trying to put things in while it is off, but the main thing that will annoy your housemates is not cleaning it. Some citrus peel does the job, like from a squeezed lime or grapefruit, but if you don't do it it stinks so bad.
5. The red solo cup thing is a meme. It's a very cheap plastic cup sold in bulk so the solo cup brand just was what half of the house parties used when I was a kid in the 90's. We had paper cups, also, and solo cups come in every color of the rainbow. Red was just popular, so stores that only carried one color of the bulk packs carried red.
8. Lean staffing made this so uncommon, but there used to be one in most grocers when I was a kid. It would be some 15 year old or special needs adult bagging groceries for one lane (usually the one on the far side of the 10 items or less or the one close to the pharmacy if the store had one attached) and it's for mothers with small kids, the elderly, and so on. The USA might suck for supporting the disabled financially, but we have all the ramps and paying customer accommodation you can shake a stick at. Able bodied people in a rush were expected to tip this person a very small amount, usually the change from the bill. This person's other job was collecting carts, but that was 15 minutes out of every 2 hours or so. These days stores have so few employees that this is a luxury thing; the person collecting carts is likely stocking shelves, uloading trucks, or even working the deli or bakery counter. We don't often have a second person who bags groceries outside of luxury places like "Whole Paycheck Foods" stores anymore.
6. Cheerleaders are like gymnastics or dance, and I don't get it. I took dance classes for 13 years. I was in the color guard of my high school band. It seems like just a way to hold the attention of people who don't like football who are attending the game for some social reason.
2. This is just beating traffic. You get to the venue of a big event early and have snacks in the car while you wait. This evolved to bringing a big cooler and a portable grill and making a whole day of it. Everyone there has a shared interest (the game, concert, or whatever that is filling a stadium with 50,000 people,) public transit is an afterthought and 30,000 cars have to be parked, so why not just hang out in the parking lot having a pre-game party?
3. Sororities and Fraternities are just dorm rooms that are also social clubs. Makes perfect sense to me, and they tend to have stricter standards than the university or college. GPA and conduct requirements keep the crazy under a limit, supposedly, though this obviously has some issues with hazing and not every one keeps to their charter.
1. Summer camp is the American self-sufficient individualism at work. Kids at an age that people think they need to break off the last of that separation anxiety get to spend spend several days without their parents. Most I've heard of have the kids go home on the weekends, keeping the kids for 4 or 5 nights max per week. It's expensive, but can be a lot of fun for the kids. Many have religious ties, so you send your kid to a Jewish or Protistant or Catholic camp and part of how they put their activities together is at least tangentially related to those values if not explicitly about that religion.

World Animal Day
Go vegetarian for a day, and consider the lives of all kinds of animals and the threat humans pose to them.
While he may be rolling in his grave to discover that he was not the first person to be able to talk to animals, Doctor Doolittle would almost certainly be a keen advocate of World Animal Day. This day takes place on the Feast of St. Francis of Assisi, October 4th, offering a special opportunity for humans to pay a bit more attention to the other animals on the planet, show appreciation for them and even have a celebration in their honor!
History of World Animal Day
The history of World Animal Day is ever-evolving, but the first expression of the day seems to have been established in 1925 by Heinrich Zimmermann, a German author and publisher of a magazine called Man and Dog. The original celebration took place on March 24 as an event celebrated in Berlin’s sports palace where more than 5,000 people were in attendance.
In 1931, a convention of ecologists in Florence, Italy, were highlighting the plight of animal species that were endangered, and World Animal Day grew in popularity as it spread around the world. By 1948, Australians were organizing celebrations with the support of the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA), and the reach of the day grew even further, eventually changing its celebration day to autumn.
World Animal Day is an annual celebration of all things furry is now a popular day in which people remember the important role that animals have to play in the world, as well as the people who devote their lives in working to protect and care for them.
How to Celebrate World Animal Day
Show some love to all animals by celebrating World Animal Day with a myriad of events, activities and celebrations, including some of these ideas:
Stand Up for Animals
World Animal Day is an ideal time for humans to speak on behalf of those animals who cannot speak for themselves. This is a great day to get involved with various charitable organizations that fight against treating animals poorly, especially when it comes to big business and industrialized farming. Speak up by arranging to host an event at work in support of animals, attending a group meeting about animal welfare in the community, or sharing about the care for animals on social media to raise awareness.
Make Animal-Friendly Purchases
To get into the festive mood on October 4th people are encouraged to consider how their economic and purchasing habits impact animals. Perhaps this is the right time for some people to ditch the fur fabrics, refuse to buy products that are tested on animals and possibly change eating habits to consume fewer animal based products.
Here are some of the simplest switches many folks are making cruelty free purchases on World Animal Day:
Look for PETA or Leaping Bunny certifications. Several organizations have certifications that help consumers choose the brands that are safe for animals. Look for these when purchasing makeup, skin care, lotions and other personal products.
Go for vegan products. Reducing the number of animal products and by-products is a great way to celebrate World Animal Day. From food to personal care to clothing, support companies that refuse to harm animals with their products. The Vegan Society is a good resource for finding these products.
Eat less meat. Even those who aren’t ready to go strictly vegetarian can make a change by reducing their number of meat-filled meals. Substitute beans for meat in Mexican foods or change up plant-based items for dairy products like milk, yogurt and cheese.
Volunteer to Help Animals
Many people want to get involved in animal welfare for more than just World Animal Day one day a year! Perhaps this day could be used as a launch to make a commitment to volunteer at a local animal shelter or other charity that is effectively helping to protect and care for animals in the community.

Celebrate Krishna Janmashtami with AdBanao App.
Krishna Janmashtami is the festival that marks the birth of Lord Krishna, the eighth incarnation of Lord Vishnu. He was born in Mathura and grew up in Gokul (Braj).

On this auspicious day, devotees observe fasts, chant prayers, sing bhajans (devotional songs), and perform puja (worship) to Krishna at midnight, the time of his birth. They also decorate their homes and temples with flowers, lights, and rangoli (colorful patterns). They offer sweets and fruits to the god and distribute them as prasad (blessed food) to their family and friends. They also enact scenes from Krishna’s life with idols and models.

Let's talk about yesterday 😆
After seeing Across the Spider-Verse on Saturday night, I woke up with a stiff neck + remembered a certain book from the library I'd often look at. With further research, I found out there was an updated version of that book on shelf. The library didn't open til 1 so I spent the morning just chilling + playing mobile games :P
I reexplored the 1st floor again. I'll say this again: a lot has changed. The little cafe area used to be on the left side of the entrance. The Maker Studio is so brand new to me. The guest services used to be on the left side instead of straightforward as you entered.
They got ps4 + ps5 console games to check out now? Too bad they didnt have anything older :( I'm glad I took a picture of the map that led me to the graphic novel section.
Oh! I also ran into an old customer too :D that was a pleasant sight to see :)
I explored the graphic novel section. This Manga caught my attention 1st.
An ex-yakuza boss gives up his mafia life to be a house husband. The concept is adorable. The execution... wish they'd tone down his scary aura.
And then I found what I was looking for:
I grabbed a seat nearby + began looking thru page by page X3 The pages were exactly as I remembered! Some I'd constantly stare at longer than others. Knowing me, I didn't read much back then. Only looked at the pictures :P The ones I did read yesterday were about the death of the Stacys (to understand how/why this event is so important to Spider-Man's life), Doc Ock (bcuz of the last shot in Spider-Man 2 that resembles a certain panel), the Prowler (that was eye-opening for me in terms on how it connects to Spider-Verse), the Spider-Women (mostly about Jess Drew), + Spider-Man 2099 (aka one of the main updated contents).
As much as I want to talk about Miguel O'Hara/Spider-Man 2099, it could lead to Spider-Verse spoilers 😬 So, nope!
I felt like I spent a good hour reading/looking at that book :) After that fill of childhood nostalgia, I went upstairs to the 2nd floor. I should've taken a picture of the map but didn't bcuz I didn't see one 😕
The 2nd floor is more flipped around. 1st, the children's section was on the right side. I can remember all the pokemon VHS tapes, kids music cds, + computer games X) When I was in high-school, that became the teen + Manga section. I definitely do have some footage on my YouTube channel of me talking to the camera in the library back then. Now, it has become an updated version of the children's section o.o
The teen + Manga section was to the left side of the 2nd floor.
Bask in the glory of my nostalgia!
I used to hang aroubd here after school (which was across the street) all the time! (See 1st + earliest entries @ lpfreakification.tumblr.com/tagged/life/chrono) I felt like there used to be a bit more than this 🤔 No matter, some Manga were still in shelf that I used to read a lot back in the day, like Bleach + Shugo Chara X3 Some, unfortunately, like Fushigi Yugi, weren't there :( However, redemption came in the form of Arata the Legend! It was one of those Manga I was quite invested in + was eager for the next volume to come out 😃 I did make two fanarts from there but cant remember if i uploaded them on my dA or not. That jogged my memory of the story. I did catch up on two of the three that were right there. It just *had* to be the *13th* volume that shook me. Damn, I was fanning myself from the thrills. I looked up how many volumes there were. About 22 or 23? Idk bcuz there's also some remastered version I couldn't wrap my head around in. Also, they have an anime? Eh, from the looks of it, looks low-qual, off, tacky? Yeah, I like how the Manga looks more than the anime :P
The library closes at 5. Lucky for me, I had an hour to spare :) I spend a good 10 minutes of what I wanted to do next. I was craving a mango frozen yogurt from Red Mango but it's still a drive. It's not far but it's an effort XP So I looked up anything similar to nab from Target. I was right :D
A Target run later, I went home, ordered pizza from my old job, + tried this out.
Needless to say, I liked it 😆
It was somewhere past 5 pm. I mostly chilled in the kitchen until the pizza arrived. It was good to see my old coworker doing well. I do tip big bcuz 1. It makes them very happy + 2. It makes up for any other s****y tippers. I liked how he skipped back to his car like the little kid he is (he's 20), happy with his tip + visiting me too.
I keep forgetting to add pepperoni to my pizza online lately. No matter, I ate the majority of it anyway 😋 With 6 square pieces left, I was stuffed. That was a 14-inch.
I went back to my room somewhere around 6 pm. Played mobile games until I fell asleep. Last time I checked it was 6:55 pm.
And now it is 6:53 am + wide awake rn, despite writing this entry for the past 30 minutes. Man, did I sleep or what. I'm glad I didn't wake up in the middle of the night last night. Now... what do I wanna do today? 🤔
