So... just a little insert for this post. I just heard that the Robin Williams guy passed away recently.。・゚゚・(>д<)・゚゚・。 That's sad. I really liked this movie he starred in, entitled "Flubber". It's cool.I love that movie. Flubber is very kawaii
But still... Condolences to the dude's family and friends (.-.)
...Anyways, enough sadness! *awkwardly tries to change the topic* Welcome to my 5-post series of my throwbacks 。◕‿◕。
So far, we have one. The "crush gears"
Well then, let's move on to the next one (★^O^★)
Okay! Throwback number two: these things.
Am I the only one that remembers these things? I think we called them "gameboys" (just like those from Nintendo ◠‿◠)
My friends and I made one for each of us, then we'd pretend to play the game together and make random sound effects and stuff like that. Technically, we pretended that they were real consoles (〜 ̄▽ ̄)〜 We made only one for each of us and reaaally took care of it. Even if the paper's already crumpled and slightly torn, we'd still keep it (/•ิ‿•ิ)/ (Ahh... We were so imaginative back then xD)
After that, we'd cut out a whole bunch of rectangular papers and label them. Then those will be the game cartridges.
Oh, how creative we were~
... Well... It's either we were so creative and cute, or just plain desperate to play console games in school (๑>◡<๑)
Another thing. My friends and I used to crumple small pieces of used paper, and tie yarn around it. The we'd call it our pet (sometimes, I still do that... when no one's looking, of course >‿<)
So.... Yeah! (/・◡・)/
That's it for today's throwback. The question I'm gonna leave you guys today is: did you guys pretend to play on consoles like we did? xD
Imma end this post here. I've to study for a couple of big tests (which we'll take tomorrow ✖ o ✖) Pray for me, my brochacos. I need all the help I can get xD
Rest in peace, Mr. Robert Williams *salutes*
Bye, mia amicos! (≧∇≦)/ Have an awesome night/day ♪(๑^◡^๑)♪

The Blogmistress
A brief introduction of Her Royal Weirdness
Hello everyone, I go by Cossette— welcome to my blog! I'm a nineteen-year-old Chinese-Filipino law student studying abroad in Australia. I like to obsess over musicals, edgy memes, and general geekery. I spend most of my time sorting through syllabi for my classes, baking cookies, or lurking on Reddit. Since I'm on break from university however, I have also began binge watching lots and lots of shows on Netflix (what's a girl to do, after all?)
I am also that girl who is too emotional for my own good, and has a sad penchant for laughing (at myself, usually). Alas, perhaps my own peculiarity has scared off potential friends, but who cares? Someday, I will find my kin, my madcap ilk. But until then, I'll be sticking around here ┐(︶▽︶)┌
L O V E S: Books My friends Homestuck
D I S L I K E S: Flying monstrosities (get those cockroaches away from me) Scary things The abysmal state of my internet connection
W I S H L I S T: To enjoy Christmas with my friends + family!
Faster internet pls Happiness for everyone More time to read books please
Here are some cool blogs by cool people! Also, link exchange is OPEN! Please feel free to comment on any blog posts to get in touch with me if you'd like to exchange links with each other :)
About The Blog
A description of my little corner of the blogosphere
This digital abode of mine was established back in August 2013 as a requirement for my participation in our high school's blogging club. Thus, I scrambled to create one, The Random Thoughts of A Socially-Awkward Optimist— the very website that you are currently viewing. I've long since quit (not to mention graduated from high school), but typing away my thoughts in this blog is rather therapeutic, and I like thinking that perhaps a smile has made its way onto someone's face because of what I write :)
“Sonder” is probably the best word that would describe all reasons why I maintain this blog. The word can be briefly defined as the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own, and through this blog, I wish to be able to satiate that feeling in other people by retelling my anecdotes, thoughts, and rants, and hopefully I would also be able to lift up spirits along the way.
Life moves on and change is constant. But I want to document my experiences somehow: those ugly-crying moments, existential crises, or tears of joy and sadness. Then once change runs its course, we can all look back at these moments and laugh at our own naiveté. And hopefully, I can do just that by typing it all away in this blog.
The Jukebox
Current aesthetic: quiet holiday mornings, the smell of Christmas in the air
A little disclaimer: I don't own nor make money off of any of these songs, it's all just for a little good fun and mood-setting lol
These are the music playing in the blog. I hope you like listening to it as much as I do ◕ ‿ ◕ Simply click on the title of the song, and it will direct you to where I got it ❤
