Story Time
Back in 2019 when I decided I wanted a switch, I really didn't like the colors of the joycons included in the console. I find the red/blue as tacky and gray ones boring. Hey don't judge me, haha I just want something fancy and didn't want to blend in the crowd.
So I thought, OK I'll go ahead and buy one, but let me replace it's shell with atomic purple similar to the one released for Gameboy. I bought the eXtremeRate case then even before I bought a switch LOL
Funny enough, I saw the Tsum Tsum version of the switch released on the same month I bought the case, and guess what? The joycons are colored pink and purple!! I am so stoked!
So I imported one from Japan. Then I didn't get to use the transparent purple shells. 😂
Fast forward to 2021, I got bored with the pink and orange shells on my 2nd switch and I got a bit anxious last night that I needed something to drain my energy and calm me down.
Then I found myself unscrewing my right orange joycon... was a bit tricky at first since I disassembled it without bothering to check for vids to guide me.. I am like, just go figure bitch 😂
Then I just realized I am already screwing back the last bit on my then left pink joycon. I did it! Finally haha! The sun's up.. been doing it all night hehehe.. anxiety is also gone!
As I complete the task, I realize that there are times when we wanted to do something but too scared to f*ck up that we end up not doing at all. Then we just have these endless thoughts and what ifs. We end up missing on the great stuff. Having the courage of just dipping my feet in the cold water and realizing, "hey it isn't that bad as you think yeah?" made me so proud I just did. Now I don't have to imagine what my switch would look like.
Now both my switches match my personality perfectly. The Tsum Tsum is the posh disney princess vibe in me - girly and fun.. and the Atomic Purple is the techie badass bitch persona - rebellious and fearless.
Which do you like better? :)
