"Everything will be okay"
9 years ago
I've gotten so tired of those words; they never really are. No matter what i do I end up doing poor at it; even when I'm doing my best. Working full time to ensure my apartment rent but that only gives me two days every week to myself. So naturally I'd wanna set those as my art days. But no; i end up playing archeage, league of legends, and/or wow; watch videos almost inn repeat, ave only when I'm reminded of my commissions duo I try to do something. But even that feels like a slog; my art doesn't feel like it's improving, I feel I have no time to actually practice/improve; and just every corner of my life just feels more and more isolating. I just...I dunno. There's just nothing for me really. Pokemon is losing its charm, prolly cause my ex was a major pokemon fan too, I dunno. Just nothing seems to click with me anymore; like some gear with its teeth worn away.

Living to work meaning there no down time, no vacation time just the endless grind of going to work or losing it all
Working to live mean you need to money but you have wiggle room, sick days, time off and in general can get the time you need to get much needed stress relief. I feel your pain as I been in that grind, heck am still in the grind in part. Missing two days this week for being sick but I take the lost of money over throwing up on the bus or something worst happening to me.
And Skype is acting up so switching to telegraph. If your there let me know. Later dude and hang in there.
