Before I get into today’s challenge, I just wanna wish my mother the happiest of birthdays! My brain is all microbioed out, so I’m not gonna do the math, but I’m pretty sure she’s okay with that. She’s not on any social media other than Facebook, so just send out some positive vibes for the

Oh, thank god, an easy one. Well, easy as in I don’t have to write a lot. It’s picture time! Anyway, Xena’s outfit stays pretty consistent for the first several seasons, probably for budget purposes, but they got more adventurous as the seasons went on.

Yes, school starts in, like, four days, but I am 100% ready to do my first 2021 challenge. It’ll give me a nice break from studying microbiology for an hour or so. And instead of rehashing something I did a while ago on my old blog, well, it’s a new year, isn’t it? Shedding 2020’s
