Hello again lovelies!

Happy to report that I ended up checking out the restaurant I mentioned
yesterday! I didn't remember to take a picture of the food but that's alright, the ramen was mid anyways. I liked the takoyaki way more!

I was looking at old selfies I'd upload on Twitter and remembered I used to pose for pictures like this all the time at one point. It's a bit nostalgic to see myself in this angle lol

Hell in a box!
After lunch, we went to the mall to walk around before hitting the arcade. We went to the usual machines like DDR and Mortal Kombat but this time we were all pulled towards the claw game, especially the one with the Hello Kitty plushies.
My parents taught me that machine claws were scams and my own experiences cemented that sentiment but I really wanted to win today! It started with one try. I managed to align the claw with the plushie and it perfectly gripped at her head but fell out a few seconds after being airborne. Then a second try, then a third try, then I was somehow on my tenth try! At one point my friends and I were taking turns trying to get two specific plushies closer to the chute. We mastered getting the claw to grab at the plushies' head but the claw's willingness to keep its grip was the only factor working against us.
Despite knowing that we were experiencing the machine as it was intended, the way each turn felt like we were only closer to winning was what kept us going. Y'know human folly, something about Icarus flying too close to the sun as an allegory. We've all been there . . .
