I've been meaning to ask you about your Big Long Walk since i first saw you mention it in a tag! If you're willing to tell the story i'd be interested to hear it?
tl;dr i solo-hiked the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT) in 6 months of 2020. idk if you've heard of this trail. it goes from the US-Mexico border to the US-Canada border. it's kinda neat.
Big Long Walk: filed on this blog under sparse text posts of "#backpacking 2020."
(people are always like 'wow that's so impressive' and i'm always like (privately) 'tbh backpacking 20+ miles in a day is easier than doing 1 full cycle of laundry whilst battling Problems Disorder')
imho if you are lucky enough to possess the rare quintfecta of spare A) cash B) time C) health D) desire E) foolishness to decide to do it and then commit and not give up, it's pretty doable. it's just walking 1 mile. and another. rinse and repeat for 2,651 miles.
fun fact! the Continental Divide Trail (CDT) thru-hikers call the PCT the "Piece of Cake Trail."
but why did i do it? idk. why not. there's some additional context to my life here that's kinda personal so i won't get into it. mainly i wanted to escape emails and gender and i wanted to see some cool nature. mission accomplished! i did it for fun & You Only Live Once.
it's endlessly funny though. cuz I somehow did not realize when i Embarked, that backpacking a couple thousand miles would irrevocably Affect me. the way i see the World is fundamentally affected. the way i Exist is affected. i'm more Me. i didn't set out to Find Myself but i sure did become myself anyway.
a little slice of tangible in-this-real-live-world transcendence in the form of self-inflicted sore feet, sunrise in the desert, and a thousand more miles to go.

Video Game 2023 recap!
So this year i played heaps of games lol honestly crazy to think about.
Thought I'd do my own wrap up and look back.
I may mention spoilers.
Kirby and the Forgotten Land
Cute! Its my first Kirby game in forever (last game was on the DS) Again its cute, fun, funny and its body horror for kids!
🐀Happy Sneep ^_^
Bayonetta 3
I've watched the previous two games so this was my first time playing a Bayonetta game. I was worried about getting into its combat so I played in casual for most of it. Did play in standard later and it turns out I was doing well lol
The story and ending was..something tbh I expected a lot based on the past two.
Still I had fun as a newcomer and I enjoyed the customizing.
🐀 Neutral (confused) Sneep :-1
Yakuza Like a Dragon
Funny to think that I unintentionally played this game and I guess the rest of the series lmao
Honestly iconic I loved Ichiban, I loved his friends, the usual RGG side stuff was fun and full of charm and the english dub was really well done.
Am glad to have played this especially after I watched Penny Parker play this.
🐀a Happy Sneep about it but was left devastated at the end ಥ_ಥ
Yakuza 0
Loved it, a great way to get into the Kiryu saga, to know what Kiryu's story is (and Maji's) after playing through Ichi.
I had quite the reaction to playing a game that can be so violent but also can be very weird and also feature a dress up game.
🐀 Nishiki simping Sneep (unaware of whats to come) (っ❤◡❤)っ
Xenoblade Chronicles 3
Its Xenoblade...it was a rollercoaster of a story to go through. Also very relaxing to play especially after Y0 and B3 lol
Enjoyed coming along with Noah and the gang. Loved Eunie and Taion and I liked seeing refs to 1 and 2.
🐀 Sad Sneep (at the ending) OTL
Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom
I basically put aside everything while playing TotK lmao
It was so fun exploring and seeing newer things added in.
This is the only game so far that made me replay the final boss, like I NEEDED to play the final boss again <3 a battle between dragons.
🐀 Speechless Sneep (◡‿◡)
Final Fantasy VII Crisis Core Reunion
I was surprised at how its a linear game and a pretty quick main story. And the missions are there to build more playtime.
the main story i liked, it was nice getting to know Zack and seeing characters from the og 7 in a different perspective.
Teared up at the ending :(
I wish that the story slowed down, so to get to know other characters more esp ones that Zack meets for the first time (Cissnei, Aerith and Cloud) and parts that were just skipped/skimmed through like Costa del Sol vacation time or when Zack inherits the buster sword after getting back to Midgar etc.
I also liked pointing out stuff I can connect to the og 7 :D
🐀Emotional but also being a silly Sneep
Yakuza Kiwami 1
A fun game.
The Majima Everywhere system did make it feel like a horror game at first lmao Majima really gave me jumpscares.
The story? .....I'd rather not think about it TwT
🐀 A devastated and also kind of paranoid Sneep :-Σ
Unpacking
Just a relaxing game to play.
And it is one of those games I was interested in before cause how I saw it on social media but at the time couldn't play it myself so I'm grateful to play it through the game pass yay.
🐀 Satisfied Sneep (◡0◡) ~3
Yakuza Kiwami 2
I will say I had a lot of fun with K2, such as the cabaret club minigame coming back, taking a lot of selfies (esp in front of dead bodies - Killer Kiryu) and the Majima saga.
But unfortunately so far it takes last place out of the RGG games for me.
The main story didn't have a focus on the multiple plots and just revealed all the plot twists at the end.
Ryuji, hes hot but I came to conclude that hes very overhyped. He didn't have that much screen time :/ If it weren't for his popularity and spin-off appearances, I would've forgotten about him.
And I think major of all of why its last place is THAT ending...what. Like really a fake bomb? And did they have to make out?
🐀 ...Confused Sneep ಠ_ಠ
Yakuza 3
This is the gayest game I've ever played.
I honestly feel betrayed I wasn't given a yaoi warning while starting up the game.
I hear that 3 is infamous for some stuff and can be quite divided between fans.
BUT
bro its a game WORTH PLAYING play it for dad Kiryu time, play it for Mine lol JUST PLAY IT.
🐀 Got yaoi devastated and diagnosed with MineDai syndrome Sneep _(╥︣0╥๑ゝ∠)
Frog Detective Trilogy
Simple and hilarious lmao
So far I've only played the first of the trilogy.
It was cool to play an Aussie game.
🐀 Suddenly anti-books Sneep
Yakuza 4
Gameplay wise it was fun. Really like how interesting it was to play as different people and how they experience Kamurocho in their own lives. Cool change to always playing as Kiryu and from Kiryu's pov.
Akiyama and Tanimura were fun to play as especially Tanimura's radio thing which I found interesting.
Saejima's section I felt was limited, I think the police guarding everywhere scared me away from doing his substories; so I ended finishing his part earlier compared to everyone :( (luckily I got to do his side stuff at the finale part)
And I realized at the end I struggled with switching and adapting between each character's style. Because of that I very stuffed up at the final bosses and stuffed up so bad that I forgot how to play as Kiryu..
The story is..interesting lol It is definitely soap opera-ish. I actually got into it at the start and the part where Hamazaki spilled the tea but because of the freaking rubber bullets twist I couldn't take it seriously towards the end like I even laughed and was just howling. There were scenes where it was just presented dramatically, like theres one where it zoomed into peoples faces with a sfx which instantly made me think of those Indian soap opera memes lmao
🐀 Indian soap opera edit style Sneep O_o = ☉.☉ = o_0
Yakuza 5
Very recently finished the main story. And honestly I forgot how the story goes lmao its a very long game.
The character profile mind map from would've really helped and also summaries like in 0 too (which I'm guessing is an improvement since that came out after 5)
It was fun how each character came with a second game (such as Saejima's Hunting Simulator for the Nintendo Wii and Project Diva)
The enemy encountering is very annoying /: separate enemies being close by each other in the same area ughhhh
🐀 I forgor Sneep....<;(' .' )>
