A dramatic email I drafted to my local church

For context: I was attending a church(not for religious reasons(dont ask))when I was given the project to make 8 embroidered keychains for their gift shop before the holidays. I've been working my ass of on it, but it got to the point I couldnt attend service anymore because I was spending so much time embroidering. I'm finally almost done though! And was drafting an email to let them know this.

Well technically first I drafted an email to send when I actually finish but then I started writing this one and it spiraled from there lol. I'm not sure why I wrote all this, afterall I've decided not to send any "almost done" email anyway. But it was silly and I had fun making it anyway! So yeah, here it us for the internet instead lol. 

Enjoy???

November 11, 1916 2026

Long has it been since I left for the battlefeild; since I have seen the lords face, tasted those savory lovefeast pastries. 

The war was grueling. I hold a kill count of 2 needles, I never knew I had the strength to kill a man(I have recorded as such in my memoirs attached. I hope you find the gory sight amusing). I can only pray God can find it in his cruel heart to forgive me for my sins.

I have slaved away in the trenches, drowning in threads. I have been injured, stabbed in my beloved fingers. I have lost fellow soilders and brothers. I found myself on the brink of death, brought back only by the totally time-period-accurate beautiful nurses who work in the medical tent  my sheer determination to make it back to you.

You, my temple. Your walls of ivory white, your windows of colorful stained glass, your bells I can hear all the way from my house. 

I am coming home, my beloved. Wait for me!

This letter will self destruct, 

my irl name 

DW i didnt actually send this lmao

(Posting late again sorry)

Ayo welcome back bitchessss today we going to da village! Im lazy and making this quick: i explored it, there was way less loot but the village was more spred out with less villagers and i liked the vibe a lot. There was a little patch of snow which means this place is rlly high up. In the distance was a landmass of pretty autumn leaves. I went back and found a spot to build my new house. An elevated plato where i can see both villages in the distance. I breifly began digging before time ran out lol

Ok thats all byyeeee

(I know im late to posting this sorry)

And we're back! Today I'm exploring the nearby village and chosing a spot to build a new house. I looked back on my House ideas post for ideas. I want to build it out if stone, like the one my friend Pockettamagochi made! Except no wherr near as good lol. But I want it to be BIG! Maybe even try crafting some stairs lol.

So I decided to build a bridge to the next village, but not just any bridge! A railway bridge! I had so many tracks i had salvaged from the abandoned mine afterall! But the only minecarts i have are ones with chests. So i need to either find or craft one without it lol.

Using stone I made a bit of a twisty turny track across the water to the next village. I finished it, but then time was up for the day so i didnt make it to the village. 

Next time, I will! I also remembered i lost my armor, so I need to craft a new set! I'm not in any rush though, because I'm in peaceful mode. One day I'll make it to easy mode, but it aint gonna be any time soon lol.

However I ended up starting a fresh creative world--totally flat and blank too!--to try and build a fountain! I used smooth quartz blocks and stairs. Originally I was going to build tall pillars, greek architecture style! However I was struggling and decided to go with a more flat look instead. While building it monsters kept falling in!!! But they couldnt get out! It was creative mode tho so i merked them easily lol. Anyway, i finished the fountain and decided to fill it with tropical fish! I think it looks nice! And I even have pics this time!!!

Ok the pics arent working sorry i'll add them later 

Anyway, thats all for today!

Minecraft Log: Building a Fountain

Recently I played multiplayer minecraft for the first time with my friend Pockettamagochi, and made a small fountain. I want to make another one, like the super crazy elaborate ones I see in Minecraft ARGs.

But maybe instead of an angel I'll make a doggy! Like papaya! I also want to add fun bells and classy benches surrounding it.

In fact, I want to make an entire fountain/statue garden!!! With stone paths and fancy temples! Which I might just do in creative! 

Minecraft Log: Multiplayer Special

10/27/26
(OK im technically writing this the day AFTER(10/28/26)but idc lol)

So today we got something different--online multiplayer! A friend I met at an event in NYC and I played online in his creative-mode world! I'd never done multiplayer and it was a super fun experience! 

I'll call my friend his minecraft username Pockettamagochi for now lol

I didnt technically have to use the in-game chat because we have discord together. But Pockettamagochi sent a message using it so i followed suit. It was kinda hard, because i'm on switch and typing is a hassle. I ended up having to use "Ella Minnow Pea" type speach(IFKYK lol), but I still had lots of fun!

My first build was a big super S out of simple oak planks(because ofc it was a super s lol)just to kinda get the hang of it lol. Im glad i did it because it did take a bit to get used to lol. Meanwhile Pockettamagochi made a house! 

While he was building I explored a nearby village for inspiration of what to build next. I found a simple fountin and decided on that. Pockettamagochi helped me decide on materials(shiny!)and I got to work! I decided to build a little garden/backyard right behind Pockettamagochi house and put the fountin there. So I dug up a patch of the stone and replaced it with grass, and set up a fense around it too. Despite that, a cow and spider kept getting in!!! But it was creative mode so the spider couldnt hurt me, just annoy me. Unfortunately I couldnt hurt them either lol. Anyway--at first I tried to build the fountin from gold but had to swap to quartz.

In the meantime, Pockettamagochi finished his house! He invited me in to show me. It was made of stone, with redstone torches lighting the doorway. Inside there were decapitated steve heads, and he used redstone dust to depict blood. There were spooky signs saying things like "herobrine was here". It was very spooky, I approved lol(it is spooky season afterall!). 

I returned to my little garden and finished my own build before calling Pockettamagochi over. He said he liked it, especially the fountin. And i told him "every house needs a pickit fence :)"

Next, Pockettamagochi and I went to the village. He build a large contraption in the sky, from purple blocks(???), despensers, and red stone contraptions. I asked Pockettamagochi what it was, and he told me to fill the despensers with TNT and he'd show me. I completely failed to stack them and eventually Pockettamagochi told me to just press the button. I did, and a line of TNT was launched onto the village! It did a ton of damage! It was so cool!!! But evil. BUT ITS SPOOKY SEASON SO EVIL IS ALLOWED! >:))) We played with the gadget for a while--i got knocked off multiple times, and at one point pressed the button twice because I got too excited and broke the machine-oops)--, before I told Pockettamagochi to follow me. 

I led him over a nearby hill where I had spotted something earlier. It was a ruined nether portal! But I didnt know for sure what it was at the time so i just called it a "thingy". Pockettamagochi repaired it and I took my first ever steps into the Nether!

I didnt get to explore it too much, because I'd be trying to tyoe something and suddenly Pockettamagochi will have teleported me to the top of the Nether and back down. But from what I could see there were a lot of valuable ores there! I definitely look forward to checking it out in my own world! 

Only a few minutes later, Pockettamagochi had to log off. But he said he had fun and that we could do this again soon. I look forward to it!!

Normally I would asign an extra entry like this a decimal# however a lot happened and so it deserves to be a legit entry

I made the decision to do some off camera mining, and it was eventful.

I FINALLY MADE THE MAP!!! I CAN MAKE THE JOURNEY BACK HOME!!!! After a last minute mining session(found redstone, gold, and diamonds!) i set off back home! I went southwest, and found my original shipwreck!!! With all my old stuff! I had no idea it was still there! I was clearly going in the right direction!

Or not. Because I rowed in my boat for HOURS! Nothing looked familiar! I crafted a new cartography table to expand my map. BIG MISTAKE. IT CLEARED MY MAP!!!!! WTF?!?!!!! WHY WOULD IT EVEN DO THAT?!?!!!?!!!!!!! In a desperate attempt to find my way back to the village, i searched for open ocean. I failed. Everywhere I looked, barely loaded chunks revealed I had been boxed in by unknown lands. 

I had no other choice.

I drowned myself.

Once again, I have failed to find my way home. I am Odyseus, on a fruitless Odyssey to Ithica. And I am yet to find any hope.

But on the plus side, I wasnt an IDIOT and only packed the basics! So all my valuables are still safe here in the village at respawn :) I also left all the stuff in a chest on the boat(except my copper armor, i forgot to take it off lol)as well a map renamed "TURN BACK!!!" for if I ever come across it again.

NEW GOAL: I spotted ANOTHER VILLAGE not far from the one im in! I'm going to explore it! And then I want to build another house further away from the village. Im sick if villagers trying to get in my house!

Hey everyone, sorry I missed last week! I got sick and wasnt able to go to the allergist! :( But I'm back baby!!! And ready to get back to work in my OG world!

I wanna get back to my main goal of getting back home! I'm pretty sure I have a compas, so I need 8 papers to make the map. I'm pretty sure I can find those in the village or abandoned mineshafts if I look hard enough! 

Not much to report today. I searched through the village again and found ONE peice of paper. Then I fully scavenged the mines and its hidden temples, leaving every chest and dispenser empty! I think I found a new section of the mines, but it was too dark to explore without torches! I also found lots of diamonds! But I didnt have the right axe to harvest them with, so I'll have to come back for it later.

I made my way back home, and there was a CHILD SLEEPING IN MY BED! They raise these hooligans young it seems! Whatever, he left me alone after i woke them up. One of my spoils from war("war")was a water bucket! So i used it to fill my tiny dam around my house! I wonder if it will do anything.

Im pretty sure I need to build my house farther away from the village if I want the villagers to leave me alone(obvi)but still have their protection. But right now my focus is on getting the remaining paper i need!
