#292: Long Time No Update
Well it's been 5 months. To say an update is overdue is putting things mildly. The Bad Stuff There's something about bawling your eyes out to someone that's known you all your life and yet aren't terribly close to that makes something sink in. She was my godmother, actually, but I've seen more of her in the past 3 years than I have the other 21 years of my life. But unloading what my depression meant, whenever the energy-draining demon comes around in my brain, to her--it was a spine-chilling relief. Given how, when prompted realistically, we both agreed that if I wanted help for that: I wouldn't get it in Hong Kong. Mental Health isn't quite out of the "topics that aren't nice to discuss in public sphere", at least, there. That was about 3 months ago, during the (Chinese) new years holiday. This past week I had a bad run. Unable to will myself out of bed if I didn't have my contract work to do. It had been a rather hungry week, yes. But I'm...good. Better, another way to put it.
#291: 2018 drawing to an end
Time for an update:
Heading to Singapore in a few days to visit a friend
Heading to Hong Kong to see my family and spend my 24th birthday
Planning to visit Disneyland (Shanghai) relatively soon
Didn't keep my instagram updated much, whoops. That working life
Creatively feeling stuck, personal and other aspirations included (hello La-Pokafe (https://www.deviantart.com/la-pokafe)) -- un-kept promises, always great for the personality that enjoys picking at itself.
Oh hey I got into a bike accident about 2 weeks ago. Came out of it with two scrapes, one on my hand and one on my knee. I hit a moving car. My bike got pretty messed up. Always wear a helmet!
Rode in a strange
#290: Belated 10th Anniversary Journal
10 years. Wow.
I'd imagine, ten years prior, I'd have I'd be as active on dA as I was then. Clearly, there is a far cry from then and now.
My peak of activity was back roughly in the last two years of highschool, after which came university, and... I never exactly stopped arting. But I didn't pursue it with a single-minded purpose as I had before. I'd even argue that instead of mass-churning out things for people to see, I became more conscious about the quality of my work and strove to improve one or two things from the last piece.
Or something profound like that.
I've made promises and it feels as though at times I've broken half of the
#289: 3 Week Countdown
It is both with excitement and an insane amount of anxiety that I make this post. I'll be teaching English to a primary school in China this up-coming year.
I don't know if I'll be back. From what I heard, I can access Discord in China. So whatever RP groups I'm involved in will hear from me primarily from that platform.
This is mostly a notice of sorts, since this is still one of my bigger sign-posts on social media (and it's not connected to my instagram, whoops). If interested in connecting through instagram, please drop a note :note: before September rolls in!
I'd say I've been well, but I've been fighting a throat infection for close

The prodigal son returns! All is well here. Pull up a chair. I made biscuits and prepared tea.
