From Sick to ➔ GAL + Thrifting and Bubble Tea (〃￣ω￣〃ゞ

 Hi Hi!

So sorry for the lack of posting and
lack of over-all gal content!

I was very sick for the last 2 weeks and am still
slowly recovering from that.

Most of my symptoms are gone but im overall just
very exhausted and short of breath a lot.

For 2 weeks I just binge watched shows
and slept almost non-stop ww

But now I am finally feeling better enough to jump back on
posting and going out, and most importantly - DRESSING IN GAL!

Here is a look I did last Sunday
to go thrifting with Rio!

I am really happy about this look!

Point!

I really wanted to wear these d.i.a flood pants I've had for quite
some time so I made that the main point of my outfit.

Originally I wanted to wear  my snake print platform sandals,
but since I was still really weak, I ended up going with my
more flat platform fuzzy slides ww

There were so many cute shoes at Goodwill!
Sadly, most of them were uncomfortable or werent our size!

My Goodwill GETS!

I was really craving bubble tea so we made a stop before going
back to see Ray and his family for dinner!

We hung out for a bit and caught up while eating
pizza and drinking beer.

[Im a poser, i didnt drink any beer ww]

It was so nice to see my galsa again!
I am pumped for more hangouts soon!

This work week has been a bit difficult with my lack of
energy and how physically active my job is.

But on Tuesday I stopped for really yummy
bubble tea after running a (failed) work errand downtown.

[The tea was soooo goood!!!!]
A long time ago I used to say that Taro
milk tea tastes likethe cream inside an Oreo.

 Some people understood a little or didnt agree but man,
this place actually had bit of Oreo cookie in the
drink on the menu!!! I felt so validated!

The errand took me to a really cute downtown area near
my work that I had never been to before!

[I HAVE TO TRY THIS WAFFLE PLACE]


amazing!

I really want to go back soon and explore more!

The rest of my work week wasn't too bad though!
I saw the new Top Gun Maverick movie Wednesday night!
[So good! I HIGHLY recommend it!!]

And on Thursday, my work place had a fun
hallway Putput Tournament with actual set ups!

I am looking forward to this weekend!
Maybe I will go shopping or do my nails!

 

 
Thank you for reading!

Volunteering at a Cockatoo Sanctuary! є(･Θ･｡)э

 Hi Hi!

I think its no secret that I have a huge love for birds!

So I wanted to make a blog post about of the newest birdie things
going on in my life right now!

[If you aren't interested in a million
bird photos, maybe skip this blog post ww]

I recently found this amazing artist online who makes these
beautiful felt birds!

mitfreude_abigail

They look so real and I really wanted to order one (or a couple).

I reached out and ordered my 2 favorite birds
A MOLUCCAN AND A MAJOR MITCHELL'S Cockatoo!

THEY TURNED OUT SO AMAZING!!

This is how I have them displayed for now!!

Recently, I got to volunteer at a Cockatoo Sanctuary!

There were so many adorable cockatoo but
they had a lot of other cute birds as well!

Cockatoo are my absolute favorite though so I legit
felt like I was in heavan!

Here are the photos I took!

 

 

 

 They had ear plugs in bulk ww

So many of the Cockatoo would greet you and say "Hi" and "hello"!
[It so so insanely adorable and I have a
video with audio of this on my Instagram post!]

Some would also reach their legs through
the bars and grab at you.

Some were sweet and would with play with your hand but a few others would try to pull you closer,which you had to
watch out for in case they bite! ww!

[This little cutie has a felt collar to prevent plucking]

[So many wanted head scratches too]

It was so adorable because, when I
would be talking or interacting with a bird, then
the moment I turn to the next cage,
there would be another bird super close right up against
the bars of the cage.

It was so cute and funny!
They are so social and most of them just want
to interact and chat!

 

Cockatoo also do this adorable thing when they feel relaxed or happy,
they will fluff up their feathers and some feathers
will cover their beak a little.

Cuddle time!

People really enjoy Cockatoos because
they have a huge cuddley side!

The aftermath of cuddling one bird..

 

 

I also helped repair a screen door!
I even got to use a nail gun; which was really fun!

There were a few other less glamorous/dirty jobs I did,
but I will spare you the details www.

 

Before leaving we got Hawaiian BBQ for dinner!

It was so tasty!

I got back home very late and IMMEDIATELY threw
my clothes in the wash and took a shower!

In the end it was such an amazing experience and it felt so rewarding! 
I am really happy I got to help and make a difference.

Along with Amazon's and African Greys, Cockatoos are some
of the most re-homed birds and are often given right back even
after being adopted.

They are very difficult and high maintenance birds so
I am happy I got to help care for some, and give them a little extra
attention and cuddles for the day!

Thanks so much for reading!
