Hello everyone. I haven't written a journal or updated my situation since the year started. To be honest, there's been a bunch of things changing between that time and now.

There's small stuff, like going to the gym for five solid months, trying to keep a daily amount of chores and activities done and having family vaccinated (my turn seems to be "not anytime soon", so that's not ideal). As for the big one, as of two weeks ago I finally got a job. My first job ever in fact, and it's full-time at that.

So with that, of course, there's a big compromise: less time in the day to do things. As I've found out after seeing many people say it, but not really getting it till I actually experienced it. Reality hits and suddenly I find myself barely having any time in the day anymore. It's not like before, when I had plenty of time but wasted it due to major lack of focus. If anything, whatever I get to do daily I try to appreciate it.

So why all this talk about job and my time? Well, it concerns art of course. This is probably surprise to no one, but I'm not someone who gets motivated to draw often. The last picture I drew was actually at the start of April, which I uploaded here. I rarely feel in a good mood to draw something (I probably should force myself to do it), so my output is very very low. Some close people to me keep trying to motivate me to keep doing it, and I really wouldn't mind it. It's just that I have other interests that I usually feel like doing more before doing art.

So yeah, in terms of what I usually do in my free time, drawing is normally towards the bottom of priorities. But that doesn't mean I'm not going to ever draw again. I might push out a picture or some refs soon, maybe. Depends on how I manage.

So the TL;DR is pretty much: I'm doing ok, I've got a job now, I don't really feel like doing art very often but might keep doing it.

Also I adopted a new character that I really liked when I saw, so there's that.
