Hello hello everyone!
Thank you and hello to all of my new watchers! I'm assuming most of you found me through my ad, which is great! ;w; Glad to have you all here! I am sorry for the lack of new things, but I've got a lot of WIPs to get through. I'm bogged down with my part time job again, but thankfully its a fairly slow week so I can do all the tasks I need to do at work and then I can spend the rest of the day drawing and whatnot as long as I don't have guests to attend to.
Commissions are open, and will remain open. The place I work at is closing for two weeks, and reopening Christmas week. Talk about ill-timed, yeesh. x_x I'm unable to buy too many gifts for people, which I feel awful about, but such is life I guess? :( I dunno, I've been in an emotional/self esteem funk lately so my self worth is pretty low as it is. To not be able to give gifts to the people I care about...I'm tired of it. I know Christmas shouldnt be solely about gifts but I like to give back. So I'm gonna try!
It just makes it hard, being that I'm saving for online courses with CGMA starting in february. I'm basically gonna start from square one - the fundementals - and go through the entire curriculum for Character Design. I'm really excited, I'm just hoping to be able to save the money in time! I have until January 4th, and registration closes January 31st. I'm only registering for one class, but I'd like to continue saving up so I have enough saved to keep continuing! I'm just...super stoked. Oh my goodness. ;u; I will get a certificate at the end of the curriculum, its not a Bachelor's Degree or Associate's degree, but its still a certificate saying I completed it - which means more than anything.
Being that I had to drop out of the college I used to attend due to financial strain and well, lack of funds whatsoever because my parents stopped helping me more and more as the years went on, and loans/grants were unobtainable for me, I have felt like a total failure for it. I never give up on the things I truly want in life - and I really want this career. I want it more than anything. I want to be happy with my career choices and I want to be comfortable, not stuck at a dead-end job for the rest of my life.
Working on the commissions I get here makes me so happy. It really does. The amount I get doesn't even matter, its just the fact that I completely zone out and get immersed in the drawings I do and I love them, and so far the people i've drawn them for really like them too! and it motivates me to keep going with this - to improve and keep moving forward.
Long story short, (actually i forgot where i left off with this journal entry because i got sidetracked with other things oops!) I'm keeping a counter at the bottom of my journal and on my profile for my CGMA fund. ;u; I also wanted to make a journal just to touch base with you guys and say hi and such!!
