Hey heyy, it's that time of the year again. I've reached the level 25 and still going strong, quarter way to hundred! The time seems to just fly by faster and faster, though I feel there's been some good progress this year.

Maybe the biggest change this year was in my career - I was working with a certain company on my last birthday, and I'm fortunate to say that experience is over (Internships, am I rite?) It was scary to take a leap to the unknown, but since I didn't see any future with that company, it seemed like the best choice; and I was correct. After doing some applying, I actually got hired to the company I dreamt of working with, and the life's been good. I've gotten appreciation there, I'm actually paid and I get to learn bunch of new things. The job can be stressful at times, but overall I've felt much happier and I see a bright future ahead of me (unless I go and jinx it 👀 That's only a movie trope, right? ... right??)

I've also seen some progress in my art: I feel like I've learned at least a bit over the year. I feel like my style has stagnated a bit, though I feel more comfortable with wilder poses and I feel like I'm faster too. I haven't really been able to put as much effort to pictures as I'd want to since I have only a certain amount of time, but with what I have, I'm proud! Also I've been animating again, which has been a lot of fun.

I've spent today chilling and enjoying myself, I even got me some ice cream too to celebrate! I have high hopes for the next year, and there should be lots of milestones there too, such as graduating and moving away from the college apartment. All very good things, and I'm excited for the future.

Now am off to take some nice rest after a long day of stuffing myself with ice cream. Hope y'all have nice rest of the week~
