It's kind of bad but I wanted to get this idea down. Having a drawing done of a child wearing makeup out of makeup. I also wanted to make the makeup slightly smudged and messy to try to portray the sadness that comes with the compassion in social media and how that affects children. I see so many little girls now make "get ready with me"-s with retinol treatments and heavy makeup and the fact a child feels they need that is sad.
Finally got to draw again! It has been so long since I have been so busy. I didn't know who or what to draw so I just went off the top of my head, so the proportions are slightly off.
The literal debilitating anxiety I have over the next few months is crazy. I have to study for both the PSAT and SATs, finish my online course for math in the next month so I can get into college prep math for the only reason being so I can be in honors chemistry, and also find community service. I can't even function anymore. Then on top of all that the guy I like, who I have been friends with since the beginning of highschool, now is acting like I don't exist. I am pretty sure this is hell and no one is telling me. If anyone has any crazy study tips please let me know....
Sorry this is out of the normal fun/lighthearted posts, but- yeah
Wow! So many posts all at once after a month hiatus, I know. But I wanted to share the start of me learning how to surf. The water was freezing but it was still so fun!!
School ended a couple of weeks ago, finally had time to post what me and my friends did during our last study hall. I have a love-hate situation with this year; it was draining and psychological torture, but I survived and somehow got the best grades I ever have... I will probably start posting about summer activities and stuff now especially learning how to surf.
If Christina Koch went to the moon, I can do this assigment, I can make that phone call, I can try snowboarding for the first time, I can finish this reaserch paper, I can study for that exam, I can get out of bed with a little more wonder. If she could go to the moon, I can do anything.
Starting a new sketchbook and decided to decorate the cover. The only actual sticker had to be covered because it is from a competition that was in my area. I am also probably going to use this for journaling and potentially story ideas if I actually ever end up posting to AO3!
I got bored after my section of translations for latin class and decided to doodle. Made this little guy, I think that the obsessions with Artemis II and reading Project Hail Mary may be seeping into my everyday life.
Grades close today and I am compulsively checking them at 9:30 pm like I haven't turned in all my work and the grade I have is the grade I will be getting... The woes of being an anxiety driven perfectionist in the time of being able to check grades on your phone
Last good photo of my 2026 VEX robot before I have to decommission it after next week's team recruiting presentations. A lot of blood and tears were shed due to it this season.
