Shin's Journal


Hi everyone! I hope you are doing well. As I always do, I have basically missed all of the action that has been going on lately. Christmas and New Year have already passed and It's 2016 now, holy crap. It happened so fast, I didn't even share my address like I said I would :( I opened this journal thinking I was going to have a lot to talk about but now I'm not feeling so certain!

Anyway, I hope everyone had a wonderful time celebrating whatever holiday you do (or not, if you chose not to). For Christmas, I had a simple meal with my boyfriend and parents and we watched the Walking Dead, which they have never seen before and are now hooked on. Chris and I had put it down for a while but I guess we were motivated to pick it back up. I also got the opportunity to spend a day hanging out with a friend from high school which was very nice and we got to do such nostalgic things such as Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles (good times).

For New Years, I'll be honest and say I was in bed by 10. Even though volume is decreasing at work, I have still been working M-F 8am-8pm, which has been very tiring for me. Since it has been getting a bit slower, I tried working 9am-6pm the other day and that was an awful idea >>

Anyway, long story-short, I'm working very hard and I promise I will be active again when work calms down! I am very excited to be drawing my characters again and hope to work on a reference sheet for either Ardrius or Nailmus next. Which character would you prefer to see first?

In addition to becoming more active at the end of January, I'll be working out too! I've been gaining a bit of weight and have started swimming again (but obviously this has been put on hold) and am excited to get back into shape. Once I'm back in shape I will feel comfortable working on my. . . COSTUME! Which I have decided to be of Shin. Of course doing all these things mean I will have to be very disciplined with my free time. However, I'm hoping to accomplish these things successfully and it gives me something to look forward to this year.

Did any of you do anything super exciting for New Year? Did you get something you always wanted for Christmahanuquanzaka?





Feature: Things I Like
I will be using this section of my journal to feature the things that I like; usually comics. More tiles will appear over time and will be arranged in alphabetical order.

Haha, why was working 9-6 a bad idea? Not used to having the extra free time already?

I'd like to see more of Nailmus first! I love his patterns a lot :D

Yay swimming, your favorite sport! Still got your butterfly stroke down? It's crazy how much energy that one takes. And yes, I'm super excited to see your costume progress! It sounded like a super cool project from the first time you mentioned it.

Omg, have I got stories to tell you about the past 4 weeks. I swear, I probably did more in these past four weeks that I did in 6 months...at least it feels like it. We should chat sometime soon about it :D. Alsooooo, we have another launch coming up this Sunday! at 10:42 AM PST. Stay tuned!
