Random Number Generator Controls My Day

I’ve lived like my zodiac sign, I’ve been the model ISFJ, and I’ve let my friends control my day. What’s next, you may ask? Well, today it’s the universe’s turn to turn my life upside down. Basically, I’m going to let a random number generator control my day. I thought this would be super fun, so we’ll see how it goes!

Today, I’m going to have a bunch of different choices for the RNG to make for me. For each of those choices, I will come up with 10 options (some of which are better than others). Then, I’ll run the RNG and see which choice the universe makes for me. Happy reading, everyone, and hope you enjoy this!


Breakfast

Choices:

  1. Overnight oats

  2. Smoothie bowl

  3. Cereal

  4. Breakfast sandwich

  5. French toast

  6. Pancakes

  7. Waffles

  8. Breakfast burrito

  9. Avocado toast

  10. Green smoothie

RNG generated: 2 (smoothie bowl)

It’s 40 degrees outside in the middle of December but I was excited about this breakfast because I haven’t had a smoothie bowl since I became obsessed with overnight oats. This is my standard peanut butter and banana smoothie bowl with some granola and chia seeds on top. A real classic over here on Mismatched Memories, and quite delicious.


Workout

Choices:

  1. Chloe Ting

  2. Pamela Reif

  3. MadFit

  4. Holly Dolke

  5. Lilly Sabri

  6. Sydney Cummings

  7. Natacha Océane

  8. Emi Wong

  9. Blogilates

  10. Whitney Simmons

RNG generated: 3 (MadFit)


I also haven’t done a MadFit workout in a bit, and I’ve been doing the same set of Pamela Reif and Chloe Ting workouts for a solid few weeks now, so this was a welcomed change. I did a 20 minute full body HIIT workout and a 10 minute ab workout, which were pretty good, kinda challenging, and very sweaty. This was actually more challenging than I was expecting, but it was definitely a nice workout.


Hair

Choices:

  1. Down

  2. Half up half down

  3. Braided pigtails

  4. Ponytail

  5. Messy bun

  6. Braids

  7. Wavy

  8. Mini pigtails

  9. Hair scarf

  10. Headband

RNG generated: 10 (headband)

I haven’t worn a headband since 7th grade so I felt slightly like I was 12 years old, but headbands are coming back into style so who am I to complain. I chose this cream crochet headband, which was cute, but I don’t think I’ll be wearing a headband for at least another 4 more years.


Makeup

Choices:

I was originally going to RNG the vibe of my makeup look (no makeup, smokey, shimmery, etc), but I thought it would be even more fun to let the RNG pick what shades in my palette I use. There are sixteen shades in this eyeshadow palette (Lamora Exposed Nudes palette), so I numbered each of them and let the RNG choose four for me to try to make a look from. Note: Cream (top left) is #1 and Luxery (bottom right) is #16.


RNG generated: 1 (Cream), 5 (Comfort), 6 (Rust), 14 (Cameo)


This was a bit of a fun challenge. Since I primarily use the top row of this palette, and 3 of the 4 shades I got were in that top row, this wasn’t as hard as I thought it was. I put Cream in my inner corner for that ~highlight~, Comfort on my lid, and Rust on my lid concentrated on the outer corner. Cameo was the one I lowkey had no idea what to do with because I don’t think I’ve ever used it before. Something that I’ve gotten into doing is putting Espresso on the outer part of my upper lash line (I don’t know I think it makes my eyes look nice), so I tried to do the same with this shade. The grey-brown mixed with the red-brown of Rust looks slightly weird, but you know, I tried. Will not be replicating this look, but it’s the thought that counts.


Outfit

Choices:

  1. Comfy (literal pajamas)

  2. Athleisure

  3. Basic casual (the popular girls on Instagram)

  4. Pinterest girl (vintage fairy vibes or something)

  5. Fancy

  6. Sweater weather (jeans, boots, sweaters, that vibe)

  7. Preppy

  8. Boho

  9. “Baddie” (idk man ABG vibes or something)

  10. Grunge

RNG generated: 6 (sweater weather)


I opted out of the jeans and boots because I will not be leaving my house today, but I put on this cream sweater from H&M and these FILA leggings that are just so comfy. This is definitely an outfit I’ve put on in the past month, but I think it’s cute and it fits the sweater theme. Please appreciate how I matched my scrunchie, sweater, and headband.


Music

Choices:

  1. Top 40 Pop

  2. Kpop

  3. Indie

  4. EDM

  5. Rap

  6. Classical

  7. Country

  8. Jazz

  9. Rock

  10. R&B

RNG generated: 5 (rap)


I don’t listen to rap, like, ever, but one of my friends has been trying to get me into it. A couple weeks ago he made me a playlist of all the softer songs from his favorite artist (A Boogie Wit da Hoodie), so I listened to that. It’s a pretty good playlist, so this was a win.


What to Do

Choices:

  1. Bake

  2. Clean/organize

  3. Paint nails

  4. Do a face mask

  5. Go on a walk

  6. Journal

  7. Upcycle old clothes

  8. Take photos (because I haven’t posted on Instagram in over a year)

  9. Homework (ugh)

  10. Play ukulele

RNG generated: 3 (paint nails)


I haven’t painted my nails since literally one year ago because I don’t own nail polish remover and I was stuck with chipped nails for approximately two months last year. But, I’ve recently been thinking of putting that nail polish in my drawer to good use, so thank you RNG for getting me to do it. I used the shade “merino cool” (Essie #696) as my main color and a white polish from ICING as my accent color, and I think it looks quite classy if I do say so myself. The polish looks kinda brown in the picture but it’s more of a mauve/dark purple IRL. I’ll probably have to invest in some nail polish remover, though.


Snack

Choices:

  1. Fruit

  2. Yogurt + granola

  3. Peanut butter banana bites (from TikTok)

  4. Trail mix

  5. Chips and guac

  6. French fries

  7. Mug cake

  8. Japanese souffle pancakes

  9. Veggies + ranch

  10. Cereal bars

RNG generated: 7 (mug cake)

I was excited about this because I’ve been craving some chocolate cake or cookies and this was the perfect opportunity. I made Chocolate Covered Katie’s chocolate mug cake, and I was pleasantly surprised. The mug cake turned out a lot better than I was expecting: it was chocolatey and not too sweet with a decent texture too. A success!! Btw: it’s 10x better with whipped cream.


Comfy Socks

Choices:

  1. Pandas

  2. Snowmen

  3. Polar bears

  4. Dogs with lab goggles

  5. Dinosaurs and narwhals

  6. Pugs

  7. Otters

  8. Cows

  9. Chickens

  10. Pigs

RNG generated: 6 (pugs)

Storytime: my sister often gets me wacky patterned socks for birthdays/Christmas, so my sock collection is elite. Since I was cozying up for the rest of the night to watch a movie, I decided to match the vibe with some fun socks from my collection. I rarely wear these pug socks, so I was really glad that I got them. Super cute, super cozy, super fun.


What to Watch

Choices:

  1. Vlogmas on YouTube

  2. Twitch streams

  3. Dash & Lily

  4. The Great British Baking Show

  5. Survivor

  6. The Social Dilemma

  7. The Holidate

  8. The Queen’s Gambit

  9. Julie and The Phantoms

  10. Black Mirror

RNG generated: 10 (Black Mirror)

I’ve watched a few episodes of Black Mirror, and I think it’s an interesting show. My friend and I watched the episodes “Crocodile” and “Black Museum” together, and it was very very dark (like I was scared scared). TW: graphic murder, blood, torture. “Crocodile” was scarier for me than “Black Museum”. “Black Museum” was just disturbing. Letitia Wright was in it, though, which was cool.


Thoughts

Overall, I thought this was a really good way for me to try new things and get back into things that I haven’t done in a while, like smoothie bowls and MadFit workouts. I thought this was really fun, and even though I probably won’t do this again, another ____ controls my day post will definitely be in the works soon.
