Have you ever been so excited about something that you needed to tell someone? And then when you're finished telling someone, if someone else asks you why you're so excited, you're not motivated to tell the story again? I think that's my issue with writing journals. Something cool or interesting (or not) happens and I go "I need to write a journal about that!" and then I have plenty of time to think about what I'm going to write. But once I get home, I don't feel like telling anyone about it anymore.
So hopefully now that I've identified the issue, I'll get better about it. But since my most recent journal is called "New Year!" I guess a lot has happened since I last mentioned anything.
But before I get started! I'm sorry that I am not streaming today even though I told many of you that I would be. At the time, I did not have any plans for this weekend, but my parents initiated the short notice planning for Mother's day. As such, I won't be streaming again until next week.
As for new things with me! now that I think about it, maybe there really aren't too many new things! Work is going well. It has been quite busy, but I've been taking my sketchbook to see if I'll eventually have time to draw on break. Outside of work, I try to exercise every day so I can get healthy! And, as of last weekend, I'm growing plants on my balcony and feeding birds! Some of the plants I'm growing include culinary herbs and I want to start growing some peppers and squashes soon.
In my free time, I've been playing Rocket League and Dark Souls 3. I'm also trying to draw more and stream every Saturday!
Well, that's about it for me. What's new with you guys?

Where to find me
Well, the next phase of dA's death spiral has arrived and there is, understandably, another mass exodus! For everyone leaving, here are the other places I post. I'll stick around for a little while - I'm having difficulty coming to terms with leaving so much history behind. However, it's becoming difficult to tolerate dA's blatant stupidity, so I don't know how much longer I'll last.

Where to find me
Woah! I have been away preparing for a vacation and shit has really gone down, hasn't it? I will not be leaving DeviantART (yet) but if YOU are leaving, here's my Carrd for other places you can find me! https://shinerai.carrd.co/
FEATURE! And also update.
FEATURE! Before I get started, I wanted to feature @zhidkovv 's recent work, Tale of Iceberg the Icewing. Set within the world of Wings of Fire, the story takes place ~200 years after the events of the last book and follows a young Icewing named Iceberg. Author's synopsis: "Iceberg always felt like he was different, as if he was destined for something bigger than his Icewing peasant life. When his musings are proven correct, he realizes that the world is a much colder place than his beloved snowy plains. Once he found himself in the violent torrent of events, turning back to his quiet, old life was no longer an option. Will Iceberg overcome the threat? Or will he succumb to the dark like those before him?" Although incomplete, I really enjoyed reading it and found myself wishing there was more. Maybe with some support, @zhidkovv could consider continuing it ;) Either way, I recommend checking it out. UPDATE It's almost unbelievable (and quite embarrassing, actually) that my
Wow, it's October
Anyone got any plans for Halloween, or doing Inktober? C: I'd like to hear about them! I had some struggles with my sleep schedule recently while my car was back in the shop but now that I have it back and I'm done with jury duty, my life is operating pretty normal. Lately, I've been working on a painting of Di, and also some little crafty things, which I've been enjoying. I don't know that I'm particularly good at it, though. Have you made anything you're proud of recently?
