Hey there! Since some people seemed to be interested in following how my collection is going, so I thought I might start posting about it here from time to time.

Dear Diary,

I met this beauty yesterday.

 ![Citizen](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/b/4/4/b44eeeb4b0f151f90cd8c9f656e6dbe53e48f381.jpeg)

She says she’s a ‘citizen’, but didn’t say of what country? (I think she might be an illegal immigrant. 🤫) I like to focus on what matters though: she carves through the air like glass—agile, yet light enough to float ever so slightly. Her wing shape is reminiscent of the Terrarian in the hand, but smoother… more _powerful_. She told me today that we can go at any speed I like. I think this is the beginning of something serious. I’m already hearing bells when I accidentally brush her with my fingernail. You can’t stop the power of Love™!

Yesterday I also made an… _acquaintance_.

They’re um… a bit two-faced I guess? Or… more like they have two different personalities at once? But they’re pleasant enough. They remind me of someone nice I know who I have been meaning to catch up with for a while now. Perhaps me and them will manage to become friends yet. That reminds me, I should really call that friend soon. It’s been months since I’ve seen their Face…

I want to thank @Zeek95 for these (and a few other) recent additions to my collection. They’re definitely a solid seller. I want to highlight this excellent packaging:

 ![A smaller box inside a bigger box.](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/0/6/1/061643a7d42f7bfd17903e2a762b8cca32d84de6.jpeg)

 ![Inside of the smaller box there are 5 padded yoyo containers.](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/a/4/8/a489e91e2b0b269110072b55f82e5c2da0cad18e.jpeg)

This method of separation to absorb shockwaves is also used in acoustics to create noise-isolated spaces, like recording booths. When I saw the use of this principle, I nearly taped the box closed again and kicked it across the room just to demonstrate its effectiveness. However, that would be tempting Fate, and Fate likes to invoke Murphy’s Law when tempted. Not sure who this Murphy guy was, but he must’ve been pretty miserly to give Fate such a powerful tool—so powerful that it can overcome basic acoustic principles! Terrifying.

Ok your new ‘friend’ is cool and all, but don’t you think she’s trying to spin between us?

She told me not to breakaway from you. It’s a trapeze act because if I two-timed you then it’d be double or nothing; and that’s straight-up suicide!
