Stopped by an awesome garage sale this morning and bought an American Girl doll (plus an extra dress) and a Totoro pillow! They had a lot more American Girl items, but I don’t really collect the line and just thought it would be fun to purchase one as a restoration project!

Some of you may be wondering where I’ve been lately, whether you’re a friend, commissioner, or the occasional watcher; I’m here to clear that up now. Lately, the power over here in my neighborhood has been going out constantly, sometimes for the whole day, multiple times throughout it or just once out of nowhere. My laptop doesn’t have a battery, so it’s obvious that it’ll turn off without giving me a chance to save my progress and I’d rather not buy another one since I’ve been thinking about replacing my laptop at some point (sd card port is getting worse, colors turn inverted on whatever I’m watching if it goes into sleep mode [oddly enough, it fixes itself if I exit fullscreen and atm hasn’t affected anything else but videos], usb ports are slow and unpredictable sometimes when it comes to transferring stuff to and from tablets [sometimes disconnecting itself in the process or giving off an error when transferring a lot of files to it], being slow sometimes and so on) since I’ve already had it for about 4 years if memory serves right and I’d rather invest in a new one than pinpoint each and every issue by replacing parts because I’m pretty sure that would be more expensive. 

Besides that, I’ve been dealing with depression and stress mostly caused by my family and one of my bro’s friends (aka the jerk from one of my previous posts). This has been an ongoing thing throughout my whole life (the family stuff to be exact) and while I was in elementary/high school it was tolerable to an extent (being compared to other kids, forced to lose weight when I was little, having my ankle burned with the cigarette lighter, etc.), but every year it has gotten worse and to the point that I simply can’t take it anymore; I’ve already reached my limit and broken down quite a few times during this year. I’m not sure how long I can keep this facade up in rl before I break down in public…

Not only has this been affecting me mentally, but it’s also affecting my health; I’ve been losing my appetite and as such, have been eating less than normally would or feeling like I don’t want to eat at all. There’s also been a significant lack of sleep, personal space, and privacy during most of these days because of my family (ie. fighting between themselves, being belittled, asked/told/forced to do chores or watch over things when I’m clearly asleep, people barging in to look for/grab things, etc.)

How you can help

A friend of mine has agreed to let me move into his place, but the problem is that I need money to buy a plane ticket (the ticket is around $378 last I checked), luggage bags and for shipping anything that doesn’t fit or can’t be taken during the flight to his place in advance (hoping it won’t be too expensive). You can help by either getting a commission or donating, which will count toward a growth drive I have been planning for a while (there’s a raffle and unlockable bonuses this time!). If you want to get something extra, feel free to buy some of my old stuff that I no longer use; whether you live in Puerto Rico or not isn’t an issue, unless I’m not making any income from those sales. If you do live over here though, please let me know if there’s a pawn shop or local store that does take in retro games or any of the items on the list, because I’ll probably have to leave behind everything that I’m unable to sell in the event that I’m unable to ship it to my friend’s place.

I still need to iron out the details for the growth drive, so in the meantime check out the following links:

P.S. The current commissioners are important to me and I’m still trying to work on your stuff whenever the power’s not going out or flickering like crazy. I will try to send out updates as soon as I can.

Moving day

I know this is just some pretty wishful thinking, but I’d like to move out as soon as possible after graduation day (June 7th). Hopefully I’ll receive my diploma by then and not be forced to wait it out for months like a classmate of mine had to do last year when he graduated. Since this is the first time I’d be moving, I’d like to know if there’s anything I have to do in regards to my Paypal, bank account, and medical plan (or anything else in particular?).

If you can’t participate, please spread the word to help me make this happen. I’d really appreciate it.
