The past couple weeks sure have been crazy-busy for me since I started my senior year, and it's been more intense than I expected. Between the assignment workload, live lessons, and trying to stay on pace, I am already feeling burnt out from all of it. I still have a long way to go before graduation in June of next year, and I keep telling myself I just need to push through. Still, part of me is already dreaming about the freedom of being a freelancer artist (college just seems like too much work for me so i am not signing up for that, lol).

During the time, I’ve been battling a pretty nasty art block.. I personally don’t mind if I don’t post anything for a while, but I wasn’t prepared for it to last this long. Maybe it’s because I’ve been goofing off with other activities, like binge watching YouTube videos or playing with character.ai, instead of drawing..

Also, after exactly a month, I finally finished setting up all of my characters' pages and coding them again on my TH!! It feels good to have that done, because now I can focus more on creating new characters and maybe even sharing some adopts. Having this extra free time is a relief; I’m glad I took the step to organize everything again. It’s a small accomplishment, but it helps me feel a little more in control of my works and my time.

I really hope I can do more art in the meantime; I sure do miss the feeling of just drawing for fun and expressing myself without feeling burnt out. Even if I don’t post everything I make, I want to get back into the groove and enjoy creating again. Senior year is tough, but I know I’ll get through it. Once I’m done, I’m planning to focus more on my art and maybe even turn it into a self-employed career. For now, I just need to keep pushing forward; thank you for reading and take care!!
