dawg i don't really have much else to say um i'm scheduling this on the 7th and ugh it's already 6pm and i'm so tired from being outside for more than an hour...why is it so freaking hot??? why do people love summer??? y'all clearly don't live in the south and it shows i guess...I literally feel like im gonna pass out and mind you i'll be wearing shorts and a tank top so idk what i'm doing wrong. don't forget to wear sunscreen btw!!! Sigh...will i end up releasing a beach episode this year?? I was thinking of doing one before august ends, but it might just be a simple cutesy drawing of my personas lol. either way ummm I hope you enjoyed the video!!! I feel like it might come off annoying how fast I talk and how much I cover different topics and tangent lmao but hopefully there's a select few out there in the world that don't hate that, and I thank you for allowing me to be as I am. there's definitely times i'll probably talk slower and etc...in fact I was thinking of releasing a video soon where I paint clouds and talk about...like deeper things?? a little bit more of a heart to heart, basically like a podcast almost?
Till then I'll wrap this up and keep it chill since again I might need to nap or something...I told myself I should rest and relax after this...but I also feel like i should do an actual "official" bday illustration like I usually do?? but we'll see...I don't really have any major birthday plans at all this year. Again the whole experience feels odd because it's highlighting my existence and that's a really weird feeling for someone who feels kinda like a ghost on terms of everyday life and interacting with others. I don't have an expectations or hopes for a magical feeling of overwhelming happiness to be alive, I'm kind of just glad I was able to make it to 26? like wow despite everything,,,I survived LOL not to sound dark though whoopsie~ My general birthday plan is to just indulge in games, manga, anime, and art which is a very everyday thing, but that's more or less what i'd expect for myself? (I might also make myself a little red velvet cake hehe) I'm ok with things being basic, I just want it to be peaceful. Idk what the future holds...I want to wish for the best, but I also want to just take things as they are. Being patient with myself and my journeys is really important. More than anything though I know i want to continue art truly until my last breath. Ik it sounds dramatic when I say it like that, but the more I think about it and how I feel in life and everything...the more I'm like wow, art really is the main thing I want to continue living for. It's my livelihood. Thank you for letting me share that livelihood here with you guys. Even though I have much to learn and I might not be the most appealing person to watch or listen to, thanks for being here. Again, highlighting my existence feels weird because I don't feel significant to people's lives at all, so if you enjoyed this even a little bit, I'm happy for that.
I wish you all the best as always!!! pls use this as an excuse to get yourself a nice treat!! whether boba or a dessert, or literally anything to uplift yourself, go for it!!! I hope your day and the rest of this month goes lovely for you, andddd here's to making it another year! I hope to create even better art and fully indulge in creativity while providing a stable and healthy lifestyle in both body and mind. Ik i've already said it a lot but thanks again for watching me and walking with me ^^
Take care ♡
