One more year around the mother fucking Sun baby! WHOO!
Somethings Ive written recently that I would like to add to this blog:
A friend on instagram asked “How are you” and this is how I responded:
“Thanks homie, I just tell everyone that I’m telling myself “Another Day Another Dollar” but really I’m really trying to remain positive in a sea of negativity. Dissenting opinions about the government, questioning my own intelligence to placate another’s ideas/opinions and also the more that people marry and have kids the more I feel like I’ll never find “love” at least not “again.” I like to think if I get in shape the bitches will flock to me but that’s not as much of a motivator as I thought it would be and yet, I’m eating salads Mon-Fri, drinking a gallon of water and now, I’m on the cusp of working out in the morning again, because I realize I have the time and that time is also for me. Working out is also for me, and it has to be and I’ve realized that, slowly I realized it but I realized it. Otherwise I try to enjoy life, I’m playing video games less and I have an INCREDIBLE backlog but I think I will get around to it in time, just trying to make other things a priority.
Maybe be the student I wasn’t in high school.
Anyway that last message hit the Instagram word limit (lmao) how are you?”

“Again on Instagram I updated my drawing/art profile”
I just finished watching Star Wars Visions and man, I wanna be a Jedi. Shit was dope.
Artistically I’ve been letting it all hit the back burner as I try to focus on school. I have like an A right now and I want to keep it that way but I got the drive a little NUDGE if you will to work on my stories/comics.
I have this feeling that if I don’t do it now, even if I hate how I draw, it’ll never get done so I gotta start the process and finish it before it’s too late. I also wanted to look up the best way to make comics because I HONESTLY feel like starting this bitch on some 8.5x11in Printer Paper and just drawing it like I would in High School or some shit. I mean those are the materials I’m comfortable with and while I’ve searched before I never did find a large format scanner, because I honestly think I’ll be better off starting on traditional media and maybe scanning it in and cleaning it up digitally. But that’s just me.
Anyway, that’s where I am right now, new blog soon coming with the new month on my website. So be there or be square… I mean you’ll still TECHNICALLY be square if you read my blog because it’s powered by Squarespace but WHATEVER.
Ok Bye.
*************
I will now continue these two, separate thoughts.
So for the words to my friend… I was going to continue writing even more, he didn’t respond to me but I guess that’s okay, maybe I was the one taking it too far, maybe the question was superficial. I guess it just jumps right into the next body of text however, I’m thinking about all the art I want to make, all the projects I have strewn about my computer that I want to complete.
I’m really just now budding as an artist, just now getting firm in my stance and planting my roots. They say some great people didn’t really pop off until they were 40 but I feel like I don’t want to just wait until some arbitrary number to go “Ok, my time to shine!” I’m sure there was much more work put in than just getting to 40. I still have 7 years until 40, 7 years is a good chunk of time.
Another thing I want to work on/accomplish is getting financially stable. I just deleted the default lists Robinhood gives you when you first open the app and now I’m going to create my own. I think a good goal to set for next year is to have at least 1 share in all the stock options I list but I’ll get serious about that in January. Buy less video games, focus on my future, that sort of thing.
I’m also dating again, or at least I created profiles on a few dating platforms. I need to get out there and meet people, I need to get laid, I need to try to make it work with someone else at least once before I decide to swear myself off from women for the rest of my days. I don’t think it’ll get that far but all my friends that got married and have kids by now, they knew what they were doing, this dating landscape is hell on earth. Believe that.
Anyway, I’m home from work early and relaxing with YouTube.
My birthday is this month, but I don’t have any plans…
Meh.
