Its been a while since i last had diary entries here but i want to make a semi regular habit of it again at least.

its been a suuuper busy summer so far, last week i moved in with my roommate, whom ill probably refer to as R here for convenience and anonimity's sake
and its been really nice so far!

Until now (from since i was 15) i've always lived either by myself in dorms and small apartments and for a short while in 2021 i also moved in with my mom for a few years in a slightly bigger apartment. which was nice to share costs and have company but i havent always enjoyed being around her 24/7.

So living with someone else is a nice change of pace

its for a relatively period tho so i cant help keeping in the back of my mind where im going to go and what im going to do once this term ends, which feels slightly depressing since our contract hasnt even properly started yet but im already thinking of whats after this but it feels like the responsible thing to do (to keep in mind at least. for my own sake.)
even though i know thats theres probably a 100 things that could still change in the years we spend living together

Im also excited at the prospect of moving my cats in with us in fall.
it's going to be a scare for them to move from the place theyre used to but ive really missed them this year and i think the extra space will do them good.

Im also moving to a new course in september,
last june i finished my 1yr concept art course which has been so much fun.
i met a ton of lovely friends there and its been the only course ive been able to find that has actually been worthwhile.
im only sad i didnt know about it sooner

all in all id say that its given me the determination to really work on getting into the art industry.
So this year im taking a follow up year to master 3D art to have a wider skill base to pull from when applying for jobs or creating my own work

initially i didnt think i would like 3D modelling enough to dedicate a whole year to learning it but all in all, the one 3D module i had the past year did enough to pull me in. its hard but not so hard that i think i could never do it or anything
so off to another year it is

i also have a couple people from past year joining in the follow up year which is really nice to have some familiar faces starting off but im very interested to see what the new group of people will be like

oh and i also got a new tattoo two days ago, its like super epic. watch

top one is old, bottom one is fresh
