my last internship of the year ends today ✨
on our first week with pino studios, we had to create a poster to introduce ourselves. and so, this is me at a glance!
i posted this on facebook and instagram already but since this is my tumblr where only a few can see my posts, i guess it’s safe to add more to the caption lol.
to be frank, the past few months haven’t been easy and i’ve been struggling to look at the bright side in all of this since i tend to be kind of a perfectionist in everything i do (which is why it takes quite a long time for me to finish one artwork), but i came across this post that said instead of pressuring myself to excel all the time, it’s important to remember that there’s more value in the process. that made me feel less stressed about life after college.
now that i think about it, i actually did reach a lot of my goals this year:
✿ illustrated a few editorials for bpc and young star :’)
✿ interned at a design studio and somehow overcoming my fear of talking to strangers (rip)
✿ meeting up and spending time with my friends after not meeting them for over 2 yrs cuz of mizz rona
✿ went to my first concert alone ~ beatopia tour ~ (as someone with strict parents this issa big deal)
✿ having my own dog!? AAAAAA dream come true indeed :’)
✿ got back into biking after 1028292 years
✿ learned how to use a pottery wheel on my own
✿ surviving my thesis era (omygod)
it’s hard to remember these achievements sometimes so i’m glad i have this platform to list it down and share it here with you all hehe 🫶🏼 (aside from journaling too xd)
i may not be the best in what i do, but as long as i continue to do what i love and remember to enjoy the whole creative process just as my younger self did — i will probably do just fine in my early 20s 😔✊🏼.
super grateful for another year of growth and i can’t wait to focus more on my art next year since ya gorl is finally gradwaiting ! 🎓✨
