Hello my lovelies! I hope you’ve all been kicking ass! The past few weeks have been hectic but I’m finally finding time to sit down and write (a day late, but what can we do?). Before we get started, I want to thank you all for the continued love, and I hope you all know that I love all of you back! With that being said, let’s dive in!
I feel like I’ve been going non-stop between writing, networking, and creating, that exhaustion has caught up to me and I’ve been going into deep sleep every night, which is honestly great for me. I have everything in place for next month and I am super excited to post the schedule later today/tomorrow! It’s going to be a busy month filled with games, drinks, costumes and so much fun that nothing will top it!
I don’t have much else to cover, but I hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday, and I’ll see you all soon!
Stream, Podcast, and Blog Schedule for September 2021
Hello everyone! I hope you’re all doing well! A couple of weeks ago, I decided to dive back into everything, and made a new schedule. All streams are on twitch and the podcast will be uploaded here and on Spotify! I am super excited to get back into this, as I hope all of you are, too! We have a busy month ahead of us, so let’s just jump right in!
As the title says, we’re going to be taking the Paperclip Test. A while ago, I had read an article about this guy who conducted an experiment where he asked a bunch of young children to come up with all the uses for a paperclip. They ended up with a ridiculously high number (I believe it was 200 or something), but adults could only come up with 15-20. We lose a lot of our creativity as we grow, due to school and other influences, so today we’re going to see how many uses we can come up with…
To push small reset buttons on toys, remotes, fire alarms, etc.
To clean under your nails
To open sim slot in phones
To make a simple circuit (with some other items)
Hook
Keychain
To tie things together
As a stencil
To help make wing tips
To make sculptures (with or without clay)
Unclog small bottle openings/nozzles
To fling rubber bands
Scrape out tiny spaces
Close bags
Staple remover
To clip zipper-pulls together
Money fold
Hair clip
Clay tools
Roach clip/bowl scraper
Toothpick
Wire organizer (the center of it)
To make dots of glue/paint
Screwdriver
Makeshift button on a shirt
Chains
Hook bra straps together for a razorback
Tiny sundial
Bend it to make a fancy “S”
To pick up beads
A really bad tongue-scraper
To test if a cake is cooked all the way through
Makeshift antenna
Twisty tie
Replacement t-pins
Replacement clothesline clips
Pick a lock
Replacement zipper pull
So I came up with 40 (with some help, of course), which I don’t think is too bad! The whole point of the test is to push yourself to think in a way that you haven’t since you were young, and to push the limits of your imagination! I will continue to try and come up with other uses for not only paperclips but for other objects, as well!
I’m going to wrap it up here, let me know down below if you come up with any other uses for paperclips, or different and creative uses for other items! I love you all so much, and I hope you have a great week! Keep kicking ass and I’ll see you soon!
Last night, I did something out of the ordinary for myself… I went out drinking with some friends from work. I had just finished up the day from hell and I was told to meet them at the bar, and I almost said no but I decided to actually do something fun for once.
The night was filled with drinks and laughs, and too much food! I’m pretty sure I’m still a bit drunk, but it was worth it. I had so much fun and I’m really happy that I went out.
