Hello!
I haven't posted here for at least two weeks now, nor have I posted in a week on my art book, either. There's also been days that I haven't been on Wattpad at all.
Thought I could do a bit of an update so you know what's kinda going on in my life and such right now.
First of all, I want to try to change how I mark the dates on these. I don't necessarily like how my "normal" style to date chapters in this random book, because it takes some time (knowing me, I'll be messing it up all the time) to do and I feel like it's a bit too 'formal'. I'll try out this one I did for this chapter and see if I'll like it!
(Note: I am marking it up the way we do where I live; day/month/year, so for anyone living in a country that does the days and months weird, hopefully it won't be too confusing.)Second, school's started! It started on 8th of August for me, yet it's only a third week and I've already adopted back the habit of sleeping only 5h/a night. Oops.
It's making me feel exhausted (not just the sleep, school in general), definitely, so I actually haven't been able to do much art stuff at home, mostly just played around with stuff. My days are about 7h long, with Thurdays being 10-11h and Fridays 11-12h long. And probably more, but random, days to come up.~~
As for the rest of the facts of characters, to tell you the truth, I lost *all* motivation for it after seeing the second one being badly received. I want to be clear that I am //not// blaming anyone or anything, I only learned later on that Wattpad was having some issues, but that didn't really undo the hurt and loss of motivation I had already felt earlier. It wasn't all bad though, I had some friends I could open up to about it and they helped me to feel at least mostly better. Idk if I'll be able to do in this week, probably not.
~~
Some of you probably know this, but my birthday was almost a week ago, August 24th. Thank you to all who gave me wishes! It was a busy day for me, as Fridays usually are, but a happy one nonetheless. I made a thank you post on Instagram about it, but we'll see if I get energy to post the same picture here on Wattpad.
I also baked a bit, after a long break of not doing it. (That's a small lie, I baked one cheesecake in July. Almost forgot about it.) Baked some (minty) chocolate cupcakes!(Before frosting.)
I find the card my 10,5 y/o sister did for me adorable.
(Blurred out my actual first name. Paljon onnea translates to "lots of luck" and "lots of happiness", but in this case it means "Happy [birthday], Sikke!")

I've been writing small stuff here and there during some classes, but we'll see how it'll go. I'd personally like to finish it by the end of September, before this year's 24HCD (24 Hours Comic Day). It's a free event I've been going to for the past 3 years, this would be my 4th, where our goal is to draw a comic with 24 pages in 24 hours. So far, I've always managed to do it! I want the small story thing to be written by then, so I can turn it into a comic. Last year, I did a quick, somewhat simplified version of Catherine & Daniel's past, but I think I didn't feel like posting it because my other (very cringy) 24HCD comics did very poorly here and didn't seem to interest people.
24HCD is an international event/contest, which I 100% recommend to anyone interested! It's basically the only thing that motivates me to do and finish an actual comic.
For more information from the official website, just google "24 hours comic day 2018". :)~~
I'm mainly feeling tired and exhausted when I arrive home, so usually I'm just kinda negative, sorry 'bout that. Life's not that bad, just me complaining about things I probably shouldn't. 👋
I feel like there is more stuff I want to talk about and go over, but it's already 00:40 and I want to try to get six hours of sleep tonight. ^^; + there's mainly just stuff about school, but that would involve a lot of explaining about everything (one of the annoying thing in having a completely different school system) and unfortunately I am too tired and lazy to try to do that. Sorry.
Also, I'm usually on the internet in the evenings/nights, maybe once or twice during school and maybe managing to look over messages in the mornings. I might hold off replying to stuff so I have a better time to do it, so I'm not purposefully ignoring anyone.
~~
I guess this is it for now. Have a nice rest of day, this gal will try to sleep and survive the next busy week, that will include a busy weekend for a job education thingy. 👋
Ps. I might or I might not be working on a (bad) Varian cosplay.
A bag that's too small to be useful but had a relatable text. 👀
