Nostalgic television

This fully functional little television gadget is my most recent pride and joy. You can flip through different “channels”, play and pause videos, and even turn it on and off! Each channel can contain a YouTube video of your choice, or you can have the version where you upload your own videos. I love it, I love it, I love it! But enough about me. You’re here for the tutorial, so let’s get right into it.

Spring is coming to-do list

This is how your email finds me, btw

Where I live, you can tell spring is just around the corner when the yellow trumpet trees start to bloom. They come in other colors too, but the yellow ones are more common around town. Spring-summer means rainy season, which means I might feel good for a change! That’s something to look forward to, and dammit, I’ll take it. Here’s to a hopeful, feel-good spring 🌸

To do before winter ends ☕︎
☑ Start a cozy girl blog
☐ Schedule annual health checkup
☐ Build a more consistent study routine
☐ Lose 10 kg Go back to the gym*
☐ Work on my romance novel again!!!
☐ Set up Notion life planner
☐ Keep calm and carry on ♕

* After all I am paying that pricey membership fee

MS Paint widget

I’ve been seeing this cutie in almost every girl blog I visit. And the reason is clear: look how adorable it is!!

This is the original version, hosted by its creators on GitHub. You can put it in your blog by simply copying this code into a HTML/Javascript gadget on your Layout page. (Funny drawing not included.)

Like any millennial, I was raised by MS Paint, so this one hits especially hard. However, I did notice that the application only supports the classic gray-scale theme and a couple others that I didn’t really love. (The bubblegum theme is so cute, but it completely wrecks the nostalgia, imo). I was missing something pink and girly and Pinteresty—so I took it upon myself to host a custom GIRLY version!
