Today, I played in my Aternos Minecraft server again. I tended to the land
and farms as usual but I also started to mine in the ravine behind my
house. I got a decent amount of iron, enough to craft an iron pickaxe, an
iron legging, a cauldron, and a bucket. Along the way, I also mined half
a stack of both dripstone and stalactites.

I then set up the lava farm using a lava source block I scooped from a
lava pool located near my starter home, the cauldron, and the stalactite.
It dripped slowly but surely after some time a lava block is generated in
the cauldron. I scooped it out and used it to make 100 charcoals as my
coal supply was dwindling fast.

I then went looking for hostile mobs to fight at night and after many near
death situations, I managed not to die and came home safely with a decent
amount of bones, rotten flesh, gunpowder, and strings. I then crafted my
first fishing rod. Before fishing, I cleared and deepened the small body
of water in front of my starter house so I could get treasure drops.

I then set up camp in front of the house and fished for about 2 hours and
got a decent haul of resources, namely fish stuff and some good stuff. I
got a pair leather boots that is in good condition which I then used to
supplement my lone iron leggings. I also got some saddles and an enchanted
fishing rod, that as much as I had hoped to contain the mending
enchantment, came only with the unbreaking III enchantment instead.

After all is said and done, today went by without any of my friends paying
a visit to my Aternos server. Well, it didn't bother me that much because
I got a serene and peaceful space to enjoy by myself.

P.S.:
Actually, before playing in my Aternos server, I played for like 1-2
minutes in my friend's server. There was one friend that was playing there
when I joined. I asked for that friend's base coordinates but didn't visit
his base on this occasion. I then for the second time joined my friend's
server again for 1-2 minutes and discovered that our automated sugar cane
farm has been vandalized with an ominous 3 letter word. I then left the
server to play in my own Aternos server.
