The Moonlit Oddyssey CH 2

CHAPTER 2

Naomi's morning usually consists of basic hygiene, breakfast, and then getting dressed. Since she has been living alone for 2 years she's become very comfortable in her home.

Naomi made her way to the bathroom to wash her face and fill her head with all that she has to do today. Planning to adorn her yukata after breakfast she set it aside in her bedroom and headed for the kitchen. She made rice and steamed some vegetables. She set her food on the table and bowed her head in prayer. Looking up she found a very peculiar dent in what was a perfectly round scoop of rice. Bewildered she looked around the room, but found she did not have to look far because across the table from her was a young man. His skin was pale but just shy of unhealthy and his hair was a surprising reddish orange. Naomi had never seen anyone who looked like this.

Naomi's face had a confused look on her face. She was so confused by his features that she had forgotten that he was an intruder in her house. "I appreciate the rice but I'd like it if you didn't stare." He said as though she was familiar to him. "Well, this was my house before it was yours so.. But don't worry I'm not putting you out" Naomi was instantly confused by his words since her parents lived there before she was born. Naomi was 20 and the man before her didn't look older than  23. "How about I make you some tea" she said abruptly. The man was surprised "I don't want to trouble you, although I do have some things I'd like to discuss with you". "Its no trouble at all just wait right there" said Naomi whilst heading to kitchen.

She shut the door behind her and began searching through drawers and baskets. Naomi's face lit up as she pulled out a tranquilizer dart. She loaded one into the chamber and sat right at the edge of the door. Then she sneakily aimed for the man's neck and blew. Bewildered, he grabbed his neck and started losing consciousness. "Yes!" Said Naomi before dragging his body to another room. As she moved him she thought about what he had said. She wondered if there was any truth to what he had said. She then recalled the closet that her parents had put all of the previous owners abandoned items. Curious, she looked through the dusty photographs and found one of what looked to be someone of great nobility with a great likeness to the man that had appeared. "Shit" she said realizing that this will be much more than she bargained for.

Updated skincare routine | May 2024

Good morning, ladies! So last time I posted about the skin care routine it was BYOMA set that I found to see if I'd like the brand. Since then, I have gone to buy full size products, and this is what I have in my routine today. (I put this in order of how I use them) I start off with creamy jelly cleanser and tri-ceramide complex, licorice root, and green tea. It's a great gentle cleanser so it won't be able to take off all of your make up in the first go. It has a good lather and doesn't have any irritating fragrances. Next, I go in with the hydrating serum it also has the Tri-ceramide complex but with this one has squalene and glycerin in it. I like this one because it goes into the skin really easy and smooths on real quick. It makes this nice hydrating layer. I really love this specifically in the winter because it was just incredibly dry here in Colorado.  Onto the real moisturizing product, the moisturizing gel sunscreen it also has a tri-ceramide complex but t...

Running & Cardio | My Fitness Journey

-
Image
Running and cardio has become a very integral part of my fitness routine. I run three times a week and then use the Stairmaster at least once a week, usually. I used to be horrible at running. I used to be incredibly slow. When I first started, the goal was always to run 2 miles, but it was also to run 2 miles quickly. When I started, I would run two miles in 23 minutes and some change, but my goal was to run two miles in 18 minutes and 30 seconds. It took me two months to hard training and injuring myself, but I eventually got to do it. For years after that, I still hated running, but I still had to do it. It wasn't until I took matters into my own hands that I was able to get better.  For years, I was made to train in groups who led the training based on their own abilities and just assumed that everybody else would be able to do it. A lot of people got injured but eventually we all just kind of were released into the gym and made to train whatever we needed to train. And I was v...

Supplements | My Fitness Journey

-
Image
When I started my fitness journey, I would try supplements here and there, but I wouldn't stick to any of them. I wasn't really keen on why I would need them and what they were good for. I would try protein powders and not like the taste and the kinds that we had were not even the optimal for me. And when I would try pre work, I would try them just for fun. The flavors were okay enough to be like "I can take this", but I never added it into my routine until years later. The first supplement that I would stick to somewhat is protein powder because I knew that you needed to feed the muscle for it to grow. So, I would add that in to help when I wasn't eating enough. More years later when I had issues getting the energy and the motivation to workout, I would add in some pre-workouts and there are a couple ones that I've tried that I liked and then there's some that I really did not like. In the end I had to experiment a little to figure out what I liked, and I...
