Flower Heart And a Happy New Year Flower Heart 


This isn't a meme but it is a few questions I've made to ask yourself at this refreshing time of year. So we can celebrate what we have and look forward to a fresh start in the form of a new year~~ 

So you can fill this out and comment if you like or make your own journal :dummy: whether you make it online related or personal is totally up to you~

How was your 2019?

What have you learned from 2019?

What are you grateful for right now? 

What are your hopes for 2020?

What's your first step(s) towards your hopes?


~My turn~

How was your 2019?
Mine was up and down with lots of battling with negative thoughts, assumptions and catastrophizing lol. Most the time I questioned my value and place in the world, as you do XD and was full of regret and doubts... I constantly felt pulled in many directions and felt I couldn't be there for everyone in my life. This caused me even more stress and anxiety and prevented me from doing things I wanted or needed to do. 

What have you learned from 2019?
On the flip side, I've taken huge interest in mental health, wellbeing and cognitive behavioural therapy. I'm very into Ted Talks, Mindvalley and all that good jazz on YouTube~ I highly recommend their content ;u; I've learned that I can't control everything and be everywhere and that being more selective about what I do with my time adds VALUE to my life, overall. I've also learned that most conventionally "normal" things are bullsh** and society at large needs to get back to basics to be truly happy. 
Habits are WAY more important than goals - Me December 2019
What are you grateful for right now?
My family members, especially my Mum, Auntie and Uncle, who always bring joy and love into my life. We have lost some distant family members this year which really got me thinking how precious life is and what TRULY matters. My conclusion; relationships and experiences. Two distant relatives of mine were loved by SOO many people... they were social, uplifting, kind, funny and overall just bloody AMAZING human beings who lived to great ages and still spread happiness til their last days... that's all you can really aim to be in your lifetime :heart:

My online friends!! I lost touch and motivation for a long time to get back into deviantArt and thanks to Moth-Deity LizLoveLie LadyLoriel deicide-divide and more old friends, I feel more confident to return and gradually start sharing ideas again :heart::heart: it means more than you all realise to me that you all still care and support me after sooooo many years on here!! Asdfghjk love you guys!! ;;o;; :heart:

What are your hopes for 2020?
I want to be a better, stronger person, using CBT methods to curb any negative habits or thoughts, be overall healthier in mind and body lol. I want a fresh start on here and to share more of my project ideas. I want to be more assertive and open and let those close to me know my feelings or plans. I want to be more relaxed and not spend forever on tiny, stupid details that no one notices lol (in my art, writing, appearance, home etc.)

What's your first step(s) towards your hopes?
  • Start a new deviantArt account Green tick 2 
  • Make better food choices and activity habits
  • Stop wasting time on meaningless / unenjoyable stuff
  • Tell my Mum I'm planning to move out this year... wish me luck XD

P.S. This was only meant to be a quick journal asdfghjk whoops 8''D

Feel free to ignore this, just me venting and trying to cope with depression... again. 

I can make artwork in a day. It's rare but possible. 
I have a few finished pieces to post actually. 
I put off posting them since I have so much in my inbox to get to. 
I have severe social anxiety. Worse over the last couple years. 
I keep feeling like people are noticing and / or judging my activity. 
I keep feeling like I shouldn't post until I'm caught up on other people's posts. 
I keep feeling bad for putting off commenting for weeks or months. 
I keep feeling like I have no energy or resilience anymore. 
I keep feeling like my art is meaningless or bland. 
I keep feeling I have more potential than this... 
I keep feeling I could make something bigger, epic... 
I keep feeling like giving up on my stories. Or restarting... 
I keep wanting a break; from everything. Life. People. Chores. Internet. MY BRAIN :XD:

It's like I have this horrible, nasty, bitch living in my head, constantly telling me I'm useless, unwanted, meaningless, unaccomplished, weird etc. etc. I should give "her" a name... Maybe Mya? LOL I dunno. My name anagram :XD: they say if you name something it becomes easier to remove it from yourself?? Something like that, anyways. 

These feelings are just that; feelings. They don't manifest from anyone or anything but myself and my endless negative thoughts that consume me every. Damn. Day. 

And on top of all this brain chatter, I feel so pulled in SO many directions... being told what to do with my life and how to live it, being chained to responsibilities and priorities, without, seemingly, no way to escape and just live how I WANT to live. I don't even know HOW I want to live most the time... just vague ideals. 

I'm taking great interest in life improving methods via YouTube lately though, and found so many amazing people that are LIVING their great lives everyday :heart: I'm not jealous at all, I'm simply in AWE of them and want so bad to get myself to that point; where I'm just full of energy and fulfilled and inspired and laughing everyday!! It would be bliss~

Along those lines, I have been, unintentionally, writing a lot of deep stuff, like, I could write a BOOK with the amount of notes I've made on life, the world, society etc. XD Just writing down insights... our advanced brains are a blessing and a curse. Fact :XD:

Have you ever got to a point in your life where you think "What the actual hell am I doing with my life?????" then your heart sinks to the centre of Earth and your mind goes shooting off in a bazillion directions and questions every damn detail of your entire existence and history and current situation and the meaning of it all and what really matters in the end and you suddenly panic that you've already wasted SO. MUCH. TIME. On meaningless, trivial, irrelevant, mundane rubbish and then...  *INHALES* you just give up and go eat snacks and watch TV.... :XD:

Sonic movie!!

2 min read
OK. I've jumped on a bandwagon. I need to admit something right now; I'm getting Sonic obsessed again* lol. 

Sorry not sorry Sonic comic - Happy Sonic Icon (but it inspires me to draw original stuff which is always good XD)

With the movie hype this year, I've been watching some of the TV shows again, watching games cutscenes etc. 

Chances are you've seen the trailer... 


It's a typical Hollywood story and format, Jim Carrey will be hilarious. But Sonic's design .................. has KILLED the internet LOL. 
THE DIRECTOR, this morning, has claimed to FIX IT.... the DIRECTOR. That's huge right?? All because of social media... wow. Just wow. 

Now, quick rant here, that's GREAT they've claimed to fix it all in 6 months (my birthday month!! It's destiny!!) but alas, it has all been motion captured. I totally feel for the CGI team right now, the pressure is INSANE on those guys ;;n;; to translate the motion capture human model into an anthropomorphic, fused-eyed, toon-proportioned character will NOT be simple... but hey, social media blew up, so it has to be done somehow OTL or they totally scrap the mo-cap and make him a cartoon again. Yep. 

*Was obsessed when I was 10 - 14 ish omg cringe. 

Anyways, for those watching me since forever, I'm sorry it has come to this; me making a freakin journal about a Sonic movie X'D
