10 Years Later - Tumblr Posts

A pleasant surprise: a friend of mine who I haven't been in contact with for a long time messaged me just around the time when I decided to quit my corporate job, to tell me that she is actually doing the kind of job that I predicted for her...10 years ago lol (I read Lenormand card for her when we were in uni)

I don't know if I was surprised more by her feedback or her memory.🫣

The universe has not been subtle in their flirting.

SO SOMEHOW MY YAOI SHIRT ENDED UP IN MY DAD’S LAUNDRY BASKET HELP I CAN’T BREATHE

10 years ago I was lying down in my bed unhappy with where my art was heading and not knowing what I was going to do after graduation. I decided, on a whim, I wanted to catch up with some animated movies, since I sort of stopped watching them in my teenage years. I realized how much I loved feature animation and how much I wanted to be a part of that industry. The first thing I did the following day was sit down and make a drawing of Harry Potter (down after Read More) as a way to force myself to draw in a more cartoon style. So far I "knew" how to draw in a sort of Anime style and had about 4 months of figure drawing experience from College and that was it. 10 years later, I'm still fighting an uphill battle to reach the industry, but I'm closer than ever and have accomplished so much. I found out things about myself (I'm in the spectrum apparently), made incredible friends and saw things I never imagined I would. So despite everything, I decided to unearth the same old drawing and remake it. Revisit the moment that started everything and remind myself of how far I've come and why I did all that I did. Here's to another decade!
