Nee Sensei, shiranai no?

Found another J-drama to watch! Well, it's a mini-series based off a manga with the same name. "Hey Sensei, did you know?" It's really cute, and I haven't watched something super cute and cheesy (LOL) in a while. Watching it on Amazon Prime since Jobee has it.

Mm, I guess I've also been productive? I haven't been while at home, but I'm back in SJ now. Doing a lot more creative stuff. Trying to maintain activeness on my art Instagram and getting back into my Youtube as well. I've also started to prepare for my online shop :3
It's something I've always wanted to do. To make the merchandise by hand. To package orders cutely :3 Of course, I still have so many goals I want to do: create my own short film, publish/illustrate a children's book, commissions... But I can only do so much at once. I still can't help but think about all these things at the same time. I am trying to keep myself organized by using my planner, but brain dumping is better for me. I can't do because I left my "bullet journal" at home ~ it's an excuse though haha I can brain dump anywhere :p
*Songs I've been listening to!

Ah. While in the shower, I figured I could use Clip Studio Paint's comic settings to make a "digital" sketchbook kind of thing. While I do think brainstorming with book and pencil is better, it will still get the job done.
I published another Draw This in Your Style video on my Youtube, and actually made a thumbnail that I liked! I might go with this "aesthetic" going forward. Yappari, I prefer pastel colors as my aesthetic hehe. And keeping it cute. Fonts, definitely keep simple.
There's still a lot of fun things I would like to try with the thumbnail, like add strokes around images or handwriting the title. I also want to find an video/editing style that will make my channel/videos... me. Building a brand is definitely going to take a while.
I have been working on my style, but it hasn't been consistent, and I get really disappointed in my art too. Being active on my Instagram has helped a lot, though it's still scary putting yourself out there. I hate selling myself haha but that's how you reach people.
I have been slowly looking for jobs as an animator though. That's also a goal of mine. I want to maintain the animation part of me. During this time, there's not a lot of open positions. Also, bad timing as there aren't any new shows/movies that are in production yet or they are already in the midst of production so they don't need new animators. I want a remote job if possible, or a job that's commutable in SJ. It really limits me, but we'll see though.

we live under the same sky
“To put away aimlessness and weakness, and to begin to think with purpose, is to enter the ranks of those strong ones who only recognize failure as one of the pathways to attainment; who make all conditions serve them, and who think strongly, attempt fearlessly, and accomplish masterfully.”
- James Allen Quotes
Sometimes I wonder how people see me and what they think of me. It scares me a bit, honestly. I am sure though, that what they think of me,
what they think my life is, is a complete misperception. I have always tried to show myself as a carefree person, as someone who wont get bothered
because of public judgements. I am sure my friend and family think there is nothing going wrong in my life, that I do not worry enough, that
I am always happy. And I am sure they probably somewhat hate me for it because, lets admit it, there is nothing worse than seeing someone
whose life seems so perfect while yours is a complete mess. Truth is, I have become an expert at pretending. I think we are all experts
or at least we are getting there.
I kept the image on the left bc it was kawaii-ne~ & this above bc I really liked what the creator wrote ^^
