Merry Squishmas!

Hello everyone and Merry Christmas! I hope everyone has an amazing holiday season, even if you don't celebrate. This Squishmas has been fun. Its weird that this is the second one and I somehow didn't miss a day either time, especially with my track record over the last few months when it comes to posting.

I have a present! I originally wasn't going to post a Warioware DIY cover today since its Christmas. But there was a cover that I wanted ready for the 12 days of Squishmas that I was having trouble with. If you've seen on Twitter, you'll know that I did finish it and will be releasing it today. You can see a cover of Homecoming Hijinx from Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze here!

With that saying, I will not be posting any blog posts or Warioware DIY videos for the rest of the year. I will be back on New Year's Day! Thank you for reading, Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!

Squishmas 2018 Day 12 - Toy Day

Its that time of the year again! TOY DAY! I can already see Jinglein the background, so at least finding him is easy!

But first, I changed into my Santa costume.

Jingle loved it and asked for my assistance. Of course!

My first stop was Jeremiah, who wished for a white umbrella. The lacy parasol was the perfect fit!

Next is Kidd who asked for the black umbrella, so he got a bat one!

Turns out that Muffy did ask for pink food, so she ended up with a peach.

I always thought the peaches in Animal Crossing looked like butts. Please don't do this Muffy...

Rosie wanted a white toy. Bowling pins it is. That one was a strike!

Flurry just asked for clothes. She got the only clothes in my sack, a purple tie-dye shirt

S my height is what you think of? You're going on the naughty list next year!

Rory was next and got a small spotlight and Pompom got a grapefruit table. Both extremely random gifts!

Stitches got the writing desk he wanted. His response could have been happier though...

Iggly was the last on my lift. He got a candy jar! I'd be perfectly fine with having a jar of sweets for Christmas.

I returned to Jingle and somehow managed to 100% Toy Day for once! Yay!

I got my festive wreath and ended my day. Thank you for reading! Have a Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and an amazing New Year!

Miitopia: Sailor Bree

After the Dark Lord swooped in, I spoke with Yuri. She seems to be sending me mixed messages...

Dylan and Bree both got a new outfit!

Bree's reminds me of Sailor Moon

Fighting monsters by moonlight,
Saving faces by daylight,
With Squishy's party to help fight,
She is the one named Sailor Bree!

Sorry about that. Wow I'm a weirdo...

At least my Mii agrees!

Sailor Bree was the first to reach Level 9. She really is a Sailor Scout!

We came across the Tomato Bros, I don't think I need to explain who's faces they are.

Scrappy used Wild Shot and it was the last straw for Squishy. Oooh, sibling rivalry!

Garnet had the power to heal the whole party in battle. Awesome!

Squishy and Dylan got a Level up. Squishy also got the new skill, Restoring Whistle! I can bring party members back from the dead!

I also got a piece of the Triforce a Fey Jewel!

Scrappy shot me out of his cannon and I got angry for the rest of the battle.

Will Scrappy and Squishy make up? Will Bree find the other Sailor Scouts? What about Dylan? Find out net time in Miitopia (after New Year's. Bwahahahaha!)

Squishmas 2018 Day 11 - 2018 look back

Its that time of year where I will be looking at the New Years resolutions I came up with last year and see if I have completed them. You can find last year's resolutions here! So without further ado, let's get started!

Look back at 2018
2018 has been an awesome year! We finally got an announement for Animal Crossing Switch, I finished high school and I started taking my Youtube channel a little more seriously. Now to look at last year's resolutions and my progress. Most of them are from last year's blog post, but I also added some of the more real life ones from my Twitter account!

Going through my gaming backlog - I think I made my gaming backlog worse since then. Since I won an eshop voucher over the summer, I spent it on older games and have only touched one. Why i chose to buy two Mario RPGs and Sonic Mania I don't know. I really need to work on this backlog before I forget.

Try some new games/series - I finally played a Sims games that isn't a rubbish DS version of it. I really enjoyed it! Miitopia was another one that I wasn't sure about until I actually played it. I'm still going through it on the blog. There's also Sonic Mania (even if I can't make it past Chemical Plant Zone). I do still have some PC games that I want to try, like the two Portal games. Plus Final Fantasy is coming to the Switch next year, so I actually have a decent chance of getting to play it.

Grow more as a blogger - This is one of those things that I can't really see for myself. On the one hand, my content has improved a bit and I've been writing more in advance. But then again, I have missed a lot of posting days without much of a valid reason. It honestly bothers me more than it probably does for everyone else, but that could just be because I'm too hard on myself lol.

Try some other things besides blogging - I did this! In the form of a YouTube channel! Sure I didn't properly get into it until around July-August, but I've gotten myself a good little following. I appriate every view, comment, like and subscriber that comes by. I work really hard on my Warioware covers and the other random stuff that pops up every now and then (even the memes). My streaming flopped, but I will hopefully give that another go behind the scenes when I have time.

Be more social - Haha... I've gotten worse. There's not much chance of that improving, but it will be a resolution for next year anyway. Nope!

So there you have it! That is what I have (and haven't) achieved this year. I really look forward to 2019 and what it has to offer. Thank you for reading and I'll see you all here tomorrow for Toy Day!

Squishmas 2018 Day 10 - A very Zelda Christmas

This is a weird cover. Listen to it here, and then I'll explain my mindset with it.

So a few weeks back I was just messing around with Warioware DIY and making some basic covers when I thought to myself "You know, the Fairy Fountain theme would go well with the Sugar Plum Fairy theme". So I got to work and made that monstrosity. Then I just added a mini mashup of Silent Night and Zelda's Lullaby, just for fun. It was an interesting cover that I think might suck lol.

Thanks for reading and have a good day!

Squishmas 2018 Day 9 - Winter Solstice

Today is the Winter Solstice, the shortest day of the year!

Isabelle was outside handing out blue glow sticks!

There was also a face cutout board, for people who have friends

I finally got around to meeting my newest villager, Muffy!

I think she gave me a Toy Day clue, but it isn't in blue so I'm not sure. I wrote it down anyway!

She did give me a normal clue, so I have something to work with!

Rosie requested a new PWP. A metal bench!

In her house, Pompom started talking about her plant. You weird duck!

Unless its made of bread, I don't think so

I cam across a snowball. Oh yeah! Snowmen!

Thank you for reading and I hope everyone is excited for the upcoming brighter days!

Squishmas 2018 Day 8 - Short version and most popular posts this year

Today is when I'm going to release the shorter version of "Here Comes a Thought". You can find that here! But just posting to talk about a slight repeat would be kind of boring and a waste of a Squishmas day, So I'm also gonna look back at three of my most popular posts this year.

Comparing Tomodachi Life food prices to real life

This is somehow my most popular blog post. I don't know why and how Tomodachi Life food prices are so popular, but this is a series that I really need to revive! You can find that post here!

Squishy's thoughts on Virtual Reality (from someone with a visual impairment)

This is also a weird one, but for different reasons. A little over a year ago, I had the opportunity to try VR as part of a school trip. The catch is that I wear glasses and can only really see through one eye, so my experience was a little unique. You can read the post here and see what I thought!

Squishmas 3 (2017): Dreaming of Navidad

Yep, a Squishmas post from last year made it at number 3! I remember this town being amazing. I haven't visit it since last year, but I enjoyed it fondly. You can read about this dream town right here!

So there you had it! Those are my top thee posts on the blog. Its nice to have a look back at what I've done and everyone's input on it. Thank you for reading and have a good day!

Squishmas 2018 Day 7 - New Year's resolutions

Its a little under two weeks before 2018 is over and we move into 2019. This year has been great! We've had awesome games, some decent memes and some other cool stuff. Today, I am going to be going over my New Year's Resolutions for 2019. Unlike last year, I will also be adding some real life based ones rather than just gaming related ones. So lets do this!

Be more social
This will probably be the one New Year's Resolution that I put on my list every year until the end of time and never be able to complete. But I'm still going to try and strive for it just in case it magically improves. Not much hope for it, let's wait and see!

Be more consistent with the blog
Ever since I started posting videos on my Youtube channel, I have tried my best ti not miss a post date and have made substitutions whenever I really couldn't post that day. Now I have 60 something Warioware videos out and have managed to post at least 3 per week for 3-4 months. I'm proud of that. However, I'm kind of disappointed with how I go about with the blog. It used to be that if I couldn't post, I had a valid reason for it and let others know. Now I miss days consistently because I'm deep in thought or just didn't think about it, but I left it with no explanation. One particular time I remember is when I just randomly stopped posting for a month straight for practically no reason. I want to start being more consistent with my blog like I do with my YouTube channel.

Remember to do Animal Crossing events
If I got £5 for every time I said I would do a Fishing Tourney and ended up not doing it, I would be able to pay off my student loans. I eed to nip this problem in the bud now, especially before the Switch game comes out because I don't want to miss anything in that game.

Finish my Miitopia series
I'm enjoying the game and plan on blogging about it until I finish the main story. But wow it feels like its dragging on. I want to finish it this year so that I can play something different.

Reach 750 subscribers on YouTube by the end of 2019
This might be a stretch, but I wa originally hoping to reach 100 subscribers by the end of the year. Somehow, I managed to reach over 150. Thank you everyone who helped me reach that goal! 750 might seem a little extreme, but I'm feeling lucky and feel like its somewhat possible.

Learn to cook
Yes, I'm a grown woman who can only use a microwave and a toaster. Even taking hot things out of the oven freaks me out. I want to be able to cook some of my favourite easy dishes by the end of the year. I don't have to know how to cook everything from scratch. I just want to be more confident in the kitchen and not feel like I'm going to burn the house down. I just wanna make bacon or sausage sandwiches without needing a more experienced adult's help.

So those are my new year's resolutions for 2019. Thank you for reading and have a good day!

Squishmas 2018 Day 6 - Here Comes a Thought (full)

For my third (and fourth because you know...) cover. I will be releasing a Steven Universe cover. Here Comes a Thought! You can find the cover here!

Yeah, its not really Christmas or winter related, but December can really be a stressful time and I think a cover like this can really help when your mind is just all over the place. Plus, I'm excited for the new Steven Universe episodes coming up lol.

Thank you reading and have a good holiday seaso, but think about yourselves too!

New Leaf: Toy Day Farming

I haven't play New Leaf for a lot of the month until yesterday, so it surprised me when there was snow on everything.

Muffy is the next villager to move ino my town. I think she's a sheep. I'm not a huge fan of the sheep villagers.

Iggly mentioned my birthday wish. I can't answer for sure, especially since we don't even have a name for the game yet.

The reason why I played in the first pace is becuase its a week until Toy Day and I have no clues. So i spoke t every villager possible and got a bunch of Toy Day clues.

Stitches wanted to talk to me, but forgot what he was gonna say. I do that all the time!

When talking to Kidd, he gave the best advice for the holiday season.

Jeremiah on the other hand, was thinking of something else...

Flurry also mentioned my birthday wish. I'm here to find out everyone else's wishes, not mine.

Stitches explained his and Iggly's relationship with me. That's actually a really good way of describing friendship.

While with me, I hate sharing food in real life.

Tsunami from MEME visited my town in a dream. Thanks for stopping by!

After talking to everyone I could find, I discovered that;

• Iggly wants colourful food
• Rosie wants a white toy
• Stitches wants brown furniture
• Kidd wants a black umbrella
• Jeremiah wants a white umbrela
• Flurry wants clothing

I still need to find clues for Pmpom, Rory and Muffy when she moves in tomorrow. After finding all that in one evening, I think it will be easy if I play consistently. Thanks for reading and have a good week!
