Fall ’22, Day 22

I’m finding that studying math is a vibe and studying non-math is a non-vibe. Maybe math was meant to be?

Summer ’22, Day 100

Today was my first day of classes! I guess this is the last day of summer. Or maybe yesterday was. I’m not sure what to do next. This series has been fun! I definitely did not expect it to run for 100 days. I think this is one of my favorite series I’ve done. I…

Summer ’22, Day 99

I played so much ping-pong today. I can feel the spin on the ball. It’s a weird feeling, like generating a curve. It’s like a short curve from my arm becomes a longer path for the ball. I was going to make my schedule today, but my classes have contradictory deadlines ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Summer ‘22, Day 98

I’m so tired. Classes start on Monday and I still need to make my schedule. This should be fun!

Summer ’22, Day 97

I just got back from an on-campus music festival dance party! It was my first music event like that and it was a lot of fun!

Summer ’22, Day 96

This semester I’m taking Intro to Programming. The class hasn’t started yet and I’m already done with the first two assignments. I’m trying to get ahead so that I can spend more time on my unfamiliar classes.

More ping-pong. I’m practicing my serve and I’m getting better! I love ping-pong.

Summer ‘22, Day 93

Today I discovered thumbnail sketching thanks to this video by Alphonso Dunn. In thumbnail sketching, I feel free to explore ideas I might not otherwise try, even in normal sketch form. I think canvas size has a huge effect on the drawing artistic process and knowing whether to go bigger or smaller is important. It…

Vibing. What have you all been up to? Seriously, I don’t care how old this post is. How are you feeling?

Summer ‘22, Day 91

I’m in a stand of trees. Cicadas roar. The air is cool and the sun fading. Leaves are dark against the evening sky.

Summer ‘22, Day 90

I finished watching season 1 of “Spy x Family” and I can’t wait for season 2! It’s so light and pleasant to watch. Maybe I’ll watch season 1 again before season 2 releases.

Today I was just chilling. I only have a few days left before academics resume and I’m trying to enjoy them.

Summer ‘22, Day 85

Being off finals time is so weird. I don’t have any homework. It feels like time is broken. There aren’t any impending deadlines creating a sense of dread. How am I supposed to feel without them? xD

Summer ’22, Day 83

I’m doneeeeee! The final is done. The paper is done. The discussion boards are done. The summer semester is done. Now I’m going to chill for as long as I possibly can.

Summer ‘22, Day 82

Why do we even have uppercase? Is marking the start of sentences and proper nouns worth duplicating every letter in the alphabet? Like, why? I like writing uppercase letters because they’re large and sometimes fancy, but they’re not practical. A silly situation, really.

Summer ’22, Day 81

Today I’m thinking about art and gear. I wrote a much longer draft of this post and then I was like, “Ugh, why am I saying so much?” Here’s what I’m trying to say: This is my 500th post. I want to prove that it’s possible to make good digital art and run a blog…

Summer ‘22, Day 80

The summer semester is ending. I’m about to re-enter finals time. Not looking forward to that, but afterward I’ll have some time before classes start back up again. I can’t believe it’s already been 80 days. I feel like I just started this series.

I’m learning Bach’s Prelude No. 1 in C! Flowkey lists it as “advanced”, but it feels nice to play. It’s the right balance of challenging without being overwhelming.
