New Job

2 min read
Hello!!!

So I started a new job today and I realize it makes me pretty busy and tired so my collection might be on hold for a moment. I haven't been searching for new tlk stuff lately anyway :/ been very busy.

I got a new job as a translator for a private company that does translations for the government. I spend 8h30 at the office (cuz of a 30 mins unpaid lunch time) and a total of around 3h per day in the bus. Add to that around 8h of sleep plus 1h to get ready in the morning and I have a big total of 3,5 hours of free time per day DX sucks big balls but I gotta do what I gotta do to get money :/ though in a year I'll have my driving licences and my hours spent on the bus will be reduced :3

It's my first permanent job so I really hope I'll pass the probation period of 6 months and have a stable job :3

So yeah, that was just a lil heads up that I won't be posting too much stuff in the future.

Hello!

I'm looking for pkm XY players who would trade a squirtle and/or a bulbasaur for a charmander? Like, if you only have one, I'd can also just borrow it long enough to breed it and then I'll give it back. 
Or if anyone isn't playing much anymore and wouldn't mind training some legendaries? :v hehe 

So anyway, if you have stuff to trade for, I have a charmander and 2 of the starters (just missing the grass type one) 
I can breed more if people have stuff to trade. You can either comment or note me your code and I can add you :) 
Also I can get a scatterbug if someone need the polar version.

Thanks!

Baby Raccoon

4 min read
Well...I've never done that, but I really need to get this off my chest.

So today my friend and I went walking around a lake surrounded by a forest. We were almost done when I looked down to the water and saw a baby raccoon lying on its side, right on the edge of the water. I thought it was dead but when I moved closer I saw it was breathing and weakly holding on to a rock. I didn't know what to do or if it had a wound on the other side of its body so I grabbed a handful of huge-ass leaves and slowly pulled him out of there. Poor thing seemed unharmed but very weak so I decided to bring it with me.
Now I know you're usually not supposed to move wounded animals because they usually can "take care of themselves", but let's be honest. Many people walk this trail so the chances that its mother came back soon was very small. Also it was a baby and barely moving. I'm like 100% certain it would have died alone in the water like a piece of trash if I had just let it there.
So on our way back to the car I found this thing that people change their baby's diaper on. I put it on it and carry it to my friend's car. Then we went to the vet and they told us to go to SPCA (our Humane Society). So on our way there I check if it's still breathing. It is! It's so weak though. Sometimes the raccoon moved a bit and made little raccoon noises. I was gently petting its head, trying to reassure it or something. It was heart breaking to watch such a poor little creature. But at least it was not lying alone in cold water anymore.
So we reach the SPCA and when I get there they take it in and make me sign some paper that says I'm the person who brought it in. Then a girl (some kind of vet) puts gloves on and leaves with it. I could hear it make his raccoon noises while they left. Then the guy at the desk said we could go. So I asked what they're going to do with it. I mean, it didn't seem to have wounds, it was just weak. And the guy said they would euthanize it.
WHAT? It's not necessarly dying wth?? But what could I do? The girl had left with the raccoon...and they killed it...

I can't stop thinking that if someone had took time to examine it, maybe they'd realize it just need to be bottle fed and such and probably released later. Why kill it? It's was just a baby. I feel like I rescued it for nothing. And it's breaking my heart to think this poor thing is dead. At least it didn't suffered more, right?
There's this thing called Hope for Wildlife in another Canadian province and I know they rescue wild animals and it just sucks that there's not such a thing here because otherwise I would /never/ have brought it to the SPCA. Because it's a raccoon it doesn't mean it has to be killed if it's wounded...

Two pics of it under here.

I get teary eyes everytime I look at them...
There's not really a point to this journal, I'm just so sad for the raccoon, because I saw it and held it...

Hello watchers!!

So later today I'm leaving for the city of Bucharest in Romania. My best friend and I decided to spend a week there :3
We plan on chilling aroung in the capital and then spend a day or two in Brasov where there is the Bran Castle :)
We also wanna go spend a day on one of the Black Sea beaches!

So yeah, we'll have wifi at the hotel and I'm bringing my laptop so I will probably reply to messages still. And maybe post something if I'm really bored XD


Anyway, I hope everyone have a nice week! See ya!
