Hello everyone! January sure went by fast. I've been struggling to keep up with the work hours I've been receiving and on top of that I gotten terribly sick about two weeks ago which made me lose hours however I'm gaining more hours which means more money. I usually don't open up my personal thoughts to the interwebs or any social media but about two days ago I hit a depression stage because there were two things that really upset me: me still being single and the thought that I might possibly work at a fast food job for the rest of my life. That thought alone terrifies me and I don't want to work at where I'm at for 50+ years. I talked to my best bros about the situation (since I now feel more comfortable opening up to them about anything) and they gave me several options for my future. I wasn't sure about being an artist because I don't feel motivated ever or I have an incredibly nasty art block. I don't enjoy doing commissions at least not often. But I have the possibility of maybe selling some silly cute design on a designer site or make fan art and sell prints. Taking commissions is an extremely rare thing for me. I need to see where I'll go with these ideas and try to push myself to draw or hell even doodle something everyday!
In this sense, I unfortunately backed out of my planned table this year for RMFC and I'm glad I did it before I paid for half of the table. I feel awful but at the same time I can enjoy myself at the con and even fursuit for once! Plus I will be helping/co-hosting a panel this year. :D
Also Valentines day is coming up but I call it "Single Awareness Day" I'm gonna hang out with the two besties and my fellow Korean bro plus other people that are single! It'll be a really nice hang out day to know that we aren't alone. <3
That's about it! I hope to upload more art sometime this year!
