Gotta pick your battles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite the cosmic joke that is my bowling form, we actually had fun. I got to make some cursed but hilarious edits for TikTok.&nbsp;<strong>Fanlai\u2019s already going semi-viral<\/strong>, probably because she\u2019s the only one with any actual hand-eye coordination and charisma. Oh, and she brought her Polaroid camera too, and took the kind of pics that would make Tumblr weep. Artsy queens unite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Later, we headed back home, destroyed some food like starving raccoons, and I thought: \u201cNice. Time for beauty sleep.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>BUT NO.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just as I was dozing off, there was a SCREAM. Not the fun horror-movie kind \u2014 the real \u201cwe-have-a-<strong>monster-in-our-house<\/strong>\u201d kind. Yep. Turns out our old friend the&nbsp;<strong>cockroach<\/strong>&nbsp;is back. Not a normal one either. This thing looked like it paid rent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We trapped it under a small bowl. And for extra safety? Placed our giant bottle of fabric softener on top \u2014 because this roach looks like it could deadlift. Until further notice, the area is under quarantine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And that\u2019s the tea for now.<br>Stay neon, stay weird, and watch where you step.<br>The floor is lava.
