@totalanimefan: Yes, the both regions aspect was a huge game changer (no pun intended xD). I really wish more of the new Pokemon games were like that. Yeah me too! It blew my 8 year old mind while playing Pokemon Crystal when the sprites would move. lol
I enjoy that too. It's a lot less intimidating to strike up a conversation with an anime-inspired avatar than a random person on Facebook or Instagram. c:

@totalanimefan: Me too! ^^ Do you plan on getting Pokemon Scarlet or Violet when they come out?
Aw, you hit the nail right on the head.

@totalanimefan: I know I'm going to get one, but I think I'm in the same boat as you where I think I'll wait for more information to come out and make my choice then. I sort of liked the past one though. c:
No worries! I think I was logged off for the evening by that time anyway. c: I work first shift so I go to bed kinda early.

@totalanimefan: I typically get up anywhere from 6:30am-7:30am. As long as we're logged in ready to work by 9:30am my work doesn't really care as long as we get our 8 hours in. c: Me too! I also check what the legendary is going to look like. lol I really preferred the one in Pokemon Sword over Shield so I went with that one. lol

I knowwwwwwwww. It has to be soon, especially since the big ones already had theirs. I watched the Xbox one the other day and there are so many cool games coming out soon. ;_;

@totalanimefan: I usually start work between 7:30-8:00am. If I wake up really early for some reason and I can't fall back asleep I'll log in at 6am just to get the day over with. lol
My boyfriend mostly plays multiplayer FPS games like Destiny, but I prefer the RPG, Strat, and Sim games as well. There are some outliers though- I really enjoy the Borderlands series. c:

@totalanimefan: I've been playing Borderlands 3 and so far it's a lot of fun. The only downside is since I'm playing on the Xbox Series S it crashes from time to time. :/
Yeah, he has to be at work by 6am sharp. He's currently looking for a second shift job. lol He thought he would like working mornings since he'd be free the rest of the afternoon, but he discovered he's too tired to do anything after work.

@totalanimefan: Yeah, he commutes. :c Luckily it's not that long so if he's up by 5:20am he can be out the door in 20 minutes and still make it there in time.
7:30am is super early to commute for. I think the WFH aspect makes things so much more bearable. If my goal is to be on by 8am that day I basically roll out of bed 15-20 minutes before and log in. It makes me sad more places don't offer that option for their employees.

@totalanimefan: Exactly! ^^ My job is pretty flexible so once he gets his second shift job I can always switch over to getting on at 9:30am instead, which I wouldn't mind at all. My bf and I are night owls too! And yes, I basically clock in then make my breakfast, brush my hair, change clothes, etc. lol
I hope so too. They were originally going make us all come back to the office but a lot of people started threatening upper management by saying they would quit so they changed their minds really fast. LOL

@Totalanimefan: Same here ^^ I go on walks during my lunch breaks a few times a week!
My old job had us home from March-May 2020 then wanted us to come back when the pandemic wasn't even in full swing yet. By November we had 5-6 people missing at a time due to testing positive for COVID. :/ It seemed like going through an awful lot of trouble just to keep us in the office. lol

@totalanimefan: It really is! Back at my old office job I was getting Panera Bread at least twice a week. ^^' lol
I haven't got it at all as far as I know *knock on wood* which is crazy because the coworker that sat next to me got it and she was always leaning over the cubicle wall to talk to me. lol It's crazy to me that there's people out there that think COVID is a myth.

@totalanimefan: I second that notion. I've heard that too, I'm sure you'll be okay though. I remember after my second vaccine I believe my heart would randomly flutter but that could've just been me psyching myself out, too. A few months after my sister had it she developed Bell's Palsy which is scary too.

@totalanimefan: Yeah, we're both doing fine now. I think half of her face was paralyzed for maybe a month or two but it went away. Yikes D: It sounds like you're taking care of yourself though so that's always something. The same goes for my mom, though. She's been smoking for 40+ years and I'm terrified for her.

@totalanimefan: Yeah, me neither. When I was in high school I was one of those self-proclaimed couch potatoes, but it wasn't until after I realized how important it is to move around. Believe me, I'm no gym rat either. lol I do try to get in at least 150 minutes of exercise a week, though. There's nothing wrong with just walking. c:

@totalanimefan: That's awesome! I regret not being more active in high school. I would walk home from school every now and then my freshman year, but it wasn't nearly consistent enough. Living in England must have been a very eye-opening opportunity. (I'm only a little jealous. xD I always say if I didn't have any friends or family here in the US I would probably try moving to Europe, I love the fact that life in general involves more walking. Walking isn't just great for my physical health, but I feel like I can almost "vent" for my mental health too.

@totalanimefan: I bet! I couldn't even imagine. lol Haha I feel like that's why I lot of kids did Taekwondo. It was definitely why I wanted to for a little while when I was growing up.
Would you say you were as poor as American college students or worse? haha

Thinking about playing Pokemon Crystal again.
