Shop Orders & Video Editing
🕑 Added 2018-07-02 19:11:04 +0000 UTC Hey guys! I'm super sorry about this update being a day late; I've been crazy busy and burned out the past couple of days. Yesterday, I spent the whole day finishing up my last YouTube video; I was done by 11 p.m., but everything hurt and I was too tired to write a proper post or finish up the coloring page, so here I am! Ahhhhh, it's been crazy! For some reason, my latest video took ages to edit, so I worked on that for three days straight. I was also busy packaging shop orders (thanks for all the support on my new pins!) so this whole week has been me sitting at my desk and killing my wrists and back. I really need to figure out how to stop the wrist pain because it's getting worse. I think the sensible thing is to limit editing time (and digital work), but it's very difficult. Oh, also, it's been like 95 degrees outside and my room barely gets any AC, so I've been slowly asphyxiating and burning alive. Today, I have to answer tons of emails, plan my next video (lip drawing tutorial, hurray!), package shop orders and wait for this month's postcards to arrive so that I can finish sending them as well.One good thing about this week was making orange chicken, fried rice, and turtle cheesecake. I love cooking and baking, since I've always been someone who likes to do things with my hands (grandma status achieved because of my knitting, crocheting, and embroidery skills) and cooking relaxes me. I'm hoping that in the future, I can come up with a healthy balance to my work schedule so that I can do the whole only 8 hours of work a day. I need to streamline my process!
Since I looooved making the enamel pins, I am thinking of making more things for my shop; I have a zine idea and I'm beginning to flesh it out, but if it turns out the way I'd like it to, it's gonna be pretty great! I've been working on a couple light drawings for that, so hopefully I'll get that completed and ordered soon. Also, I'm possibly planning on keeping my shop open when I go back to college. I'm thinking that with enough preparation (creating an inventory of available prints, and making sure to store all the packing supplies to save as much room as I can), I think I can make it work! It would be a shame to close it again after three months, and this coming semester, I'm planning on being way too bold and commandeering the common living room for some of my storage. I moved dorms between semesters, and in neither quad did I expand to the living space. You know how in all the movies and shows (and catalogs, and pinterest, etc.) they make dorm rooms look like the cutest things ever? Nope, our living space was just barren, especially second semester. Since no one really stays out there anyway, I'm thinking it would be okay to use it for some storage. Those are some thoughts going through my head, but I'm excited to work on a zine! I'll show you guys some updates if I do flesh it out successfully.
Also, white bunny bit me. I almost cried; he's never bit anyone in his three years with me. :(
MOVIES
Basically just Gilmore Girls; I'm finishing the fourth season. Dang, this show is LONG. I'd rather be finishing Game of Thrones, but unfortunately, it's not on Netflix or Hulu (without paying extra). Ugh, so many shows I'd rather watch but Netflix doesn't cooperate.
