take a look at my greyhound
"I am in tears, while carrying you to your last resting place as much as I rejoiced when bringing you into my home fifteen years ago."
I'll miss you forever Toboe, for 12 years you've been not only my dog but my confidant and the dearest of friends. I hope you were as happy all this years as you've made me. I'll miss our long walks in the morning, and watching you eat dirt. I'll miss your soft fur and your cold nose, and how you always had that smart glint in your eye. Almost like you understood what I was saying to you. You will no longer poke my leg for table scraps nor relentlessly chase the birds around the park. Your presence permeates my life. Your empty bed right besides mine is too much to bear now. I love you.
Mi güerito, mi toboe.

I have several questions for you! how long have you been boxing? what do you do that requires you to high kick? how long have you been an animator and what programs do you like most? what things do you like to bake? what are your swords for? and most importantly, how jacked are you? 👀
Hi!
I've been training northern Shaolin Kung Fu for 3 years on an off (had to leave it last year due to the pandemic and work stuff). Northern Shaolin is very explosive and requires lots of kicking and jumping. During Sanda (Chinese boxing match) it works towards your advantage to be able to kick the opponent's head, mainly because some ppl lower their guard a lot. Makes for an easy point. I've also been eyeing the wushu class at my school but I'll save it for when I stop getting winded by my usual workout. Tbh few things give me as much satisfaction as seeing someone's face after you catch them off guard with a high kick... Especially if they 're taller than you. Tall people had it too good for too long (jk).
On the animator side: I'm still baby, sort of. I graduated 3 years ago. By industry standards I'm a Jr. I have a love-hate relationship with my preferred software: Autodesk Maya. Cause 1) is expensive as fuck 2) crashes a lot 3) is the industry standard and thus has a lot of support community and plugins to make it suck less. Also tons of free rigs.
I like to bake cakes and cookies. Mostly desserts.
I'm kind of a martial arts junkie. I can't get enough of them. So at some point I practiced HEMA (historical european martial arts) and they gave me my first sword. The thing with swords is once you get one you cannot stop getting more.
And finally no, sadly I am not jacked :C. I was working towards that before the pandemic threw a wrench in my plans. Unsurprisingly, kung fu is a very complete workout and sometimes you reach a point where you start dropping weight insanely fast and trade it for muscle definition and some crazy core strength. I've never had lots of strength in my arms and I was happy that I was gaining muscle definition there, but that kind of went out the window. Sad stuff. If only I want to be jacked to be able to do a kickup like in the movies, and look very very cool.
Five Things Tag
thanks for the tag @woobeau :D
Five things you’d find in my bag: right now? Boxing gloves, hand wraps, my earbuds, my wallet, a travel sketchbook. (Today was a fighting/sanda day and i should probably take that stuff out of my backpack before it stinks)
Five things you’d find in my room: artbooks, my pc tower, my gwen nendroid, 3 swords, 3 napping dogs.
Five of my favorite things: a big tall glass of tejuino on a really hot day, laying down on the floor with my dogs, breaking down animation shots, baking, landing that kick or punch during combat after a perfect opening presents itself. (nothing gives me more satisfaction than landing a kick to someone’s head after they thought you wouldn't be able to reach)
Five habits: walking my dogs at the crack of dawn, streaming parties with my best friend every saturday afternoon, gaming nights with all my m8s via discord, reading fanfic in bed, deep cleaning my room once every two weeks.
Five things I like about my personality/traits that I like: I have fantastic memory, I can easily look at the bigger picture, my sense of humor, I like that I’m very pragmatic, I am proud of my work ethic.
Five things that I want for this year: a standing desk (seriously, my back is killing me), getting that job in Canada, finish my animation workshop, to see my friends again, getting that moneeeeeeyyyyy.

Favorite Albums Meme! Ayyy thanks for the tag @justmattycakes. Kinda went with your initiative of making it 9 instead of 6 cause you are absolutely right! A square looks way nicer. So here it is: 9 albums that I haven't stopped listening to since I first heard them. I think that qualifies them as favorites. I was there at the CD store for most of these releases. Tagging: @jettimania @danevermind @pamshame @machiavelien @groo-ock @gotosleepnow @abosa and u know, the usual invitation for whoever wants to do this. Nice trip down memory lane.
Im so happy I memorized all my numbers for my dojo’s kung fu exhibition. Im so ready for this. Just gotta master that kick up and I’m ready to go.
