Sunday Sessions #7
Happy Sunday!
The first half of the week was cruel to me, but not for long. The torture, despite occurring in such a short time span, dragged on for what felt like an agonizing month or two. Still, I'm grateful for the relief it provided on the later half of the week, and even when the pain halted my growth and progress, I can proudly cut myself some slack and forgive whatever feelings overcame me.
Highlights of the week:
I was able to stream once this week (during one of my most anxiety-inducing days). I see that as a big win of learning to be resilient.
I finished my first pre-made emotes during the same day as well. I was the most productive that day despite being the most stressful time of the week.
I started on some new emotes for my own channel as well. I learned I could do about 40 more emotes! That's kind of insane... But I'll take on the challenge.
I also started sketching more WIPs and thought of drawing more illustrations in the next few months. It's going to be tough though, because drawing really takes a lot of time, and at the moment it's reserved in my morning schedule since I stream in the afternoon until night. I desperately want to wake up early to draw, but so far sleep has just been feeling really good so we'll have to see what happens with that.
Another successful week of daily reels. I will never not acknowledge this small feat; this is the most consistent I've been! I'm way past 100 days and counting.
Spent Saturday watching Parasyte: The Grey with my fam. I actually watched it before and recommended we watch as a family because it's short (only 6 episodes) and we can binge it in a day. I've never watched (nor read) the original source material, but I knew a little about the series so I was pleasantly surprised by the ending.
Elmer asked to leave my town, which I was a bit hesitant with in the beginning because I grew fond of him overtime, but I had to accept since the hunt for Ruby must continue. In the end I found Marina (pink Octopus), which is funny because now *ALL* four of the Octopus species are in my town lol. I have about 2-3 more villagers that I'm just waiting to leave so I got as many chances.
I have so many "dream plans" next week - a handful of personal challenges that I want to work on but I'm scared of trying to overreach again. But it's okay even if I don't accomplish anything in this list. I know I will continue to grow and progress at my own pace.
(I'll call it future notes instead of labeling it as a concrete goal/plan)
Future Notes
- I want to stream for 5 days straight next week and play some ranked with my friends.
- I want to draw more cute emotes, either personal or pre-made.
- I gotta finish the last chapters of Hyperbole and a half. I'm almost there.
- Will I be able to draw at least one full dream illustration next week?
- Will I be able to create more videos/reels?
I guess we'll see next week :)
