But I've noticed I have to think about using social media now too and don't miss not being on it all the time. Is not being on here boosting productivity? Not so much yet. But getting there

I've been so stuck in a bubble the last few weeks with thints I've not really looked at much else. I've kept up with some anime and things but I'm so out of whack with other bits it's like waking up to a new world every time I check social media.

Ermm. Well that's definitely a name

English is hard huh

Process Video!

I forgot how good Path of Radiance was. It's eating up all my casual game time atm.

Due to things needing done tomorrow. I'll be streaming today instead of tomorrow from around 2:15pm GMT. Sorry for the last minute change on this! twitch.tv/angelarbalest

You can tell when there is dips where I stopped playing other things to focus on practicing for speedruns huh

This set looks fantastic(though I'm still unsure on Venusaurs face). But the price is keeping me locked out in this case. What did they do with the Pikachu set though

Stream running late because I need food. but will start around 2:30! I may spend the day playing Sonic 3D blast instead of Katana ZERO. let's see

📹 Laura is now online! 🔴 Playing: 🔶 SONIC HEROES PERMADEATH 🔶 🔵🟡🔴 One year since the last attempt, we do a redux of Sonic Heroes Permadeath! Team Sonic in ONE LIFE - if I fail, I reset! twitch.tv/LauraPetal/ #sonicheroes #sonicteam #challengerun

Also watched all of April Showers Bring May Flowers on Viki and it was really nice. Hopefully going to find some volumes of the manga to read in Glasgow today.

Played through Sonic 3D Blast again yesterday for the first time since I had it on the megadrive - and I still enjoy it. Sure it's definitely one you'll find jarring but i like the flow honestly. Bar Spring Stadium. That zone is a bit of a pain.

New year, back to speedruns. Katana ZERO practice returns. I will get that sub 20m run www.twitch.tv/angelarbalest

Untitled Yakuza Game

Autumn 2025 Overview Has the Autumn 2025 Season been a good one for new and returning anime, overall? Or have there been some disappointments? Find out as the Anime UK News writers deliver their verdicts…

What does 2026 have in store? There's some things I need to do: - Sell my flat, buy a new house being a big one by years end. It's about time we got somewhere that felt like a home. - Job progression is in my head as well - Finally learn how to drive. It's going to be hectic, but rewarding

2025 was a very mixed year. but let's focus on the highs, because there was a lot for me. - Lost 6kg, bring my size down to large clothes, feel just better with things - I got to participate in 4 speedrunning events, meet wonderful people that have encouraged me even further. And I'm in UKSG Red!

I was going to reflect on last year. But can do that in the morning

Happy New Year all! Let's start fresh and enjoy 2026. Great things to come!

My run was solid for a first time, I had a sketchy mid-game but I got back into my groove by the end! I definitely can break 4 hours next time

I loved being able to take part in this. It was a ton of fun and honestly - I can't wait to do it again. Thanks for letting this newbie take part, now to break the 4 hour mark next year! Just shows how amazing this community is, how welcoming, supportive and friendly they are too. Thank you :3

Going live now! www.twitch.tv/angelarbalest

In just over 2 hours - I'm taking part in the Annual Sando 100. This is running Sandopolis Act 1 100 times. Potentially 4-5 hours if I start to fail terribly but will see. Feel free to pop by, say hi, witness chaos and good banter www.twitch.tv/angelarbalest

Having a character that auto-plays helps make 100% easier, but yes. Ball x Pit is a great game, please play it

Queen’s Drive, Glasgow South. Ngl, I still catch myself trying to tap the page of my sketchbook to use the undo feature… #urbansketch

Today's another day for chilling. Got a couple more manga to finish. Probably do some Sando practice for Tuesday and then start doing my plans for next year. Lots to happen so want to be thorough in how I plan it out.

Today has been a day of rest and catch up. Finally finished watching Fragrant Flower Blooms With Dignity. They did this so well. It respects the manga and the animation didn't have a drop anywhere. Probably my favourite show this year. Still a few to catch up on but yeah. Easily my favourite

Merry Christmas to those that celebrate it and to those that don't - have a lovely break from things. We all need a good recharge so I hope the long weekend is a peaceful one

Finished Act 1 of Expedition 33 :(

Late night short stream for some practice www.twitch.tv/angelarbalest

It's been bothering me for a bit but. why does RE9 Leon Kennedy look a little like the main character from The Quiet Man game that was awful?

I maybe a small twitch streamer still finding a comfortable ground to stand on. But i appreciate every single person who stops by to say hi, that's given me encouragement to attempt events and to just be more comfortable in what I do. Thank you. Okay I'll stop being sappy now. Back to not posting

No surprises where my time has been given the year I've had. Speedrunning has been a fantastic gateway for me and I love meeting and talking to the people the community has introduced me to - it's been a light in a very stressful year.

Dude I am officially so done with speedrun leaderboard discourse

Mid-week stream? Yup. Terrible runs? double yup www.twitch.tv/angelarbalest

Finally made a start on Expedition 33 after Lainey got it for me as a gift for our anniversary. The lead into Act 1 was quite something. Also i am really enjoying learning the parry system. Think I've got an eye how to build Gustav too

Time for some Katana Zero practice! Want to make some big improvements today where I can www.twitch.tv/angelarbalest

nice to see the audiosurf team still working away!

Donkey Kong deserved something this year, so yeah happy with that

I do admit that I think it's ridiculous/disgusting the cost for trailers at the VGAs, but I'm not surprised.

Going to stay up tonight to watch the game awards. probably mad to, but yeah. think it'll be an entertaining way to end what has been a stressful and at times mentally exhausting couple of weeks.
