Just some life updates
2 years ago
Hello my lovely fuzzies!
Damn I haven't updated FA journal for a year lol.
Today I decide to update a little bit about how my life is, if you are curious ofc. I've always really like and respect my FurAffinity audience, and I wanna share things when I can.
Reason for today's update? in case if I don't post art anymore, then you know why (pfff I don't really upload art frequently anway XD)
I'm switching my career from art/graphic into health care.
Graphic jobs in my area are unstable and AI bs causing chaos everywhere, I don't feel comfortable making money with art anymore.
I've been working at a hospital for 2 years now and I feel a motivation to get further into this field.
And so, 4 weeks ago I started school to become a radiographer. Classes have been rough and fast for me, because studying at 30 years old seems like a little late, but better now than later i guess lol. English is my second language, so I need to try harder than the others.
Despite the struggle, I feel like I'm going in the right path. I’ll finish 2 years of school, then get my license, and become a rad tech!
Then I'll be able to make stable money, I could go commission a bunch of artists and fursuit makers Mwahahahahah
For now tho, I won't be able to take art commission anymore. I know school will drain all of my brain cell, and I can't afford to draw.
I really hope to wip up some adoptable occasionally, simple YCH, or personal art for fun.
I'll try to learn to manage my schedule better to find time to draw furry stuffs, it's still one of my favorite things to do.
OH I've also been VERY into making plushie. I'd love to be experienced at making fursona plushie, I've made a few for closed friends ^^ it's super fun.
Maybe I'll take fursona plushie commission when I feel comfortable enough hehe. I uploaded some plushies that I made on Twitter (fuck X, it's Twitter) so take a look at my Twitter if you are curious.
Hmmmm I think that's it for my update. I wanna thank you guys for supporting my art for 13 years.
I enjoy reading the awesome comments, checking my fav counts, watcher counts, and I definitely appreciate all of the commissions I got to work on, those helped me learn and improved myself a lot.
OOH ALSO, repeated clients, THANK YOU SO MUCH! It's always an honor to be able to draw multiple times for you.
I really like the furry fandom, it's a nice friendly and supportive tight knit community when you find your friend circle.
I want to attend more furry conventions, wear my fursuit, meet other furries and see friends that I've never gotten the chance to meet in person, that would be cool :3
If you have made it this far reading my update, weeee BIG HUG thank you for caring and I hope we can meet one day! :D

You're one of the very first artist on FurAffinity for me, and I want to thank you for sharing your art with us.

Be Persistent.
Every minute that you are on the job as a student tech or studying in clinical time, is an opportunity to hear one, see one, do one. Do it. It doesn't stop when you graduate either. Be persistent in you job applications. Keep in contact with the management that you meet if you like them as a possible friend. Work for their approval.
When you get the job, be persistent. What's the next thing? Do it. Show your manager friends that you're interested in doing more and being more. A good manager will want you to do more if you're reliable.
When you know more about something, teach others. Become the person that others rely on for support.
Do it. Be persistent. You'll be the guy that doctors want to invest in. You'll become the resident that attending want in their fellowship.
