Today was a sweltering hot day imo. Or maybe I was just very tired. But thank God I could stay indoors today. Anw, after a very ugly selfie in the morning on setlog, I decided to switch on my computer to make paper prints on canva, im going to print out some y2k elements and you know.. yeah. Btw, I found a new website seukku.cc? That gives really cute website stickers to use.. and i got some elements from it to print out.
Then I think for lunch I had a kaya waffle at west coast.
Then I went back home to prepare for a carousell buyer to come and take item.
Also then bathed and washed my hair. And taking a nap.
Dinner i shared with mum; teriyaki chicken omurice. And now im at imm.
001. Handmade greeting cards
So what's on my mind right, is that how to increase my exposure to more carousell buyers for my handmade greeting cards. Or like how to make different style of greeting cards
Im thinking like base price of $12 for the most basic kind of greeting card? Text, stickers, little doodles. Then as it gets more complicated like with handdrawn portraits, custom photos, a handmade keychain, etc. i will add more to the price depending on how complicated it is.. then yeah everything is handmade and awesome 👌🏻👏🏻 Like let me channel my thoughts to the crowd so people start ordering from me. I mean I can draw portraits (kind of) so its a good deal hopefully
(Channeling inner thoughts...)
But theres no fucking likes on my listing! Is it cause im a newbie at carousell? Or people dont need cards now that they have digital cards to send out and they are free
Hmmmm... i feel like I could add some chibi drawings of mdzs and tgcf to my listing pictures also. Im much more comfortable drawing chibis than portraits. But sometimes you know that feeling when chibi styles are so exactly the same like big head and small body its just changing outfits basically. Like all its testing me is how to draw outfits nicely then... there is no challenge. Or like there is no personalization. Im a perfectionist, and I want my customers to feel like my artwork is personalized and handmade and in that way it just makes me think like "oh hey I hate how this look so similar to what i did for someone earlier and also even earlier etc." Does it make sense? I think its a me problem and I expect too much of myself, since its not like customers meet up and compare my cards and see if its personalized. But its a huge deal for me when I keep repeating certain details, it just feels not personalized enough!
I used to get so frustrated when making explosion box gifts for customers years back. Cause I think its not personalized enough. Haiz.
Another thing on my mind is jaw surgery. I dont know what to expect of it. I think I might get nagged by my orthodontist for not heeding her advice on fixing it with jaw surgery and instead I came up with weird alternative ideas to fix my canted smile and misaligned lower jaw. You know like I already prepare my speech template for when I meet her next month about how to explain why im changing to surgery route midway. Just to explain to her that its not because I didnt trust her enough and yeah.
I think.. that new xrays will be taken on the same day but my mum doesnt think so, if so, then have to book another day cause I need to change out my piercings to bioplast first. I dont know how to change my rook. I havent touched it since I got it pierced. I 手痒 fiddled with my conch already. So I still have some confidence with it. It's the rook. I cant seem to twist the jewelry without using tools or smth.. which I dont have anyway.
Im betting on losing some weight while on liquid food diet during jaw surgery. I heard people on tiktok lose 10kg or something like that. It's the only way and also the only method to let my mum allow me to not eat tbh, that was how I used to lose weight in the past successfully. By not eating school food.
I need to post more often on ig. Like for the handmade greeting cards. Im using softc1oud and also 1f.inedayz for my journal accounts. I was lazy and also saw someone tagging their own ig account so I use this method too. Gotta go back home and find some journal spreads to take photos of.
Actually idk how to take photos... i need help. Those famous accounts on ig has like those super pretty desk layout and all that but I have nothing. No pretty tables, no skills, no nothing. (Can't wait to get my own house in the future)
I have yet to show my piercing placements so here they are! I hate and like them at the same time, actually. I like how my lobes are in Aries constellation albeit unintended and weird. Cause the piercings are too close together. But i had to get the lower one newly pierced cause my original first lobes are too high up, whenever I wear hoops they drag out my earlobes and they feel super sore...
But the thing is my right new first lobe, it kind of became a line maybe cause it got dragged also. So im sad over it 😞 so no hoops on that, only studs I guess
