Yooooo so last time I wrote a journal was over a month ago and I wanted to apologize since my goal was two write like one or two a month. I have some stuff to talk about obviously, but as you can tell I'm pretty busy/distracted with several things.

    Anyways school is getting very intense these months. I'm on my last year and I've had to focus a lot of my time into applications and personal statements. Just last week I applied to my first colleges which was pretty exciting but also very chill since I had a lot of support so yay. I'm hoping for the rest of the month I will be able to get through the rest of the apps smoothly. I'm also doing few scholarships; idk I might end up doing more since i just really want to get as much money as I can. Just know that's probably what I'm doing if I'm not updating.

    For the past month I was also pretty emo with Highlight. I was depressed for a little bit over a week but I'm better now, at least mentally. Bagel squad is staying by my side ofc. Thanks squad ;') The only thing is that I haven't gotten much sleep because I stay up trying to draw and do other assignments on the same night after coming home from work TT_TT. I really need to make a better schedule for myself. I'm back to dieting and trying to keep up with my hygiene but it gets hard sometimes. This gets in the way of what I can get done tbh.
#keepstruggling

    I've been doing mostly watercolor art for now and I upload those on my IG @/sekk_des and @/zhaleys but I'm gonna set reminder to put them on my status cuz i don't want my page to be dry all the time dammit. Someone honestly remind me of this because then I forget to remind myself that I have to remind myself (you see my problem here). I think there was only like 2 digital drawings I've done. I was doing other digital stuff but that was for my sticker packs, and I want to release those together. I'm also trying to get quality photos to put on my storenvy. idk why I'm feeling I should remodel it too. So much I want to do and not enough effort/time.

    On another note there's also printing business I've been figuring out. I made bookmarks and greeting cards now, and I'm buying more supplies and paper to make quality stuff. I swear I struggled for like a week trying to figure out what kinds of papers there are. In the end I managed to get some samples and life has been a little but easier on that part. Just know more bookmarks are coming soon! As for stickers, I want to get those printed on a site from now on because my ratchet printing and laminating needs to cease xD. Printing charms is also on my mind but I don't think I'll be ordering any for the moment. I need to get more things prepared for that. Maybe January.

:star:Commissions are still open ofc. I have 3 small ones for stickers but the three slots are still open. Don't forget I'm open to doing stickers and small traditional ones. My PayPal has been restricted right now, so I will only be able to accept card via Stripe, but I also want to set up that app for sending money. I forgot what it's called but if that's ever needed I will get it set up. Please help I'm broke even with my basic jobs.

Now I want to shout out some people for inspiring me and being amazing friends even though I am basic and don't appreciate them enough, but also because you need to see their amazing stuff it makes me cry.
