Updated some old work! Basically just changed the fonts lol.







I really miss reading books and making art. :( I've been staying up pinballing madly between regular part-time work and personal/fanwork this year, unable to get into the mindset of consuming media or fanwork. The reason for this is that I'm completely incapable of having personal projects in my free time; I'm only productive when I'm stressed. XD But I'm quitting that job because it's been making me very unhappy—my (already low) pay was cut by nearly 50% last year because of the pandemic, and in the past few months my workload has been becoming more demanding. Now I'm just sad that nearly 10 years of working with the same company ultimately means nothing, and I'm extremely anxious at the prospect of not having to work nights. What am I supposed to do, relax?????

Oh well. There are many things I want to do, but none of them are profitable or beneficial to me. I've been spending my breaks and downtimes making lists and lists, but I feel that I should let myself chill a bit and sleep properly for a month once I've officially ended my work at that company lol (as long as my brain allows it). Maybe sign up for Skillshare or something idk.

In more cheerful news I just paid for a notetaking + PDF editing app (Goodnotes 5) and I like it! I don't draw/handwrite notes on my phone/tablet all that much, but the app allows me to insert images which is great. It also works on my phone and syncs with iCloud. Not sure how long I'll keep using it, but at least it's not a subscription haha.

The book I'm supposed to be reading this month is Isabel Yap's Never Have I Ever, which is a collection of Filipino horror stories, but I haven't started it. ^^;
