heya!! its ahh been awhile!! *checks date* oh wow its been uh really been awhile since I last posted oop-- ah but im alive!! ^w^ So ah!! Quick explanation hehe oki so once I finished up all my scratch map parts I picked up a few yt map parts and decided to pour a ton of time into frame-by-frame animating them hehe (I have aboutttt 4? 5? finished youtube map parts I havent made public yet cuz idk I like to stockpile stuff & post em in lil groups & I havent decided how much I wanna stockpile yet but ill probably post em soon heheh) aand I was working on a Hawkfrost PMV that was going swell until the file got corrupted... and then I managed to recover it and work on it for a few more months until it got corrupted aGAIN akjdhflhj so I had to restart from a few months back and ahhh kinda lost motivation for that but its also sitting in my files heh (planning on finishing it at some point but not that high on priority list at the moment ^^') I got burntout from art around the time I started working and it became more of a grind to crunch out content and it wasnt really fun anymore sooo I kinda stopped drawing and spent most of my time either working or mentally recovering from work pff (I got a new job at starbucks and im much happier there than I was as a cashier :3) Then college started!! that was really fun!! tbh when I started on Scratch it was more of like the only way I could publically post animations since I didn't have a video editor I never really expected to get that deep into the coding side of things and uh look at me now a Software Engineering major !! (I feel so cool writing code in dARK MODE on like actual programming software VS Code is so epic mwahahh) heheh the possibilities are literally so cool to me and I'm excited to go into software engineering as a career so I can keep doing art as a hobby ^-^ I've finally gotten to the bit where we're not just writing like lil java algorithms and we actually get to display images and graphic user interfaces & work with databases wOO and uh then I was like oh wait online tutorials I wanna make a weBSITE and now I've gotten to the point where I can make like lil sprites and environments and particle effects & like I wanna make a game on my own lil website over the summer so we'll see how that turns out hehe >;3 Oh speaking of summer! I got a software development internship at Hallmark for summer 2023 so I'm pretty hyped about that! :D Anyways!! I've recently rediscovered how much I love art so ive been doodling and mostly making lil pretty still images :3 Ive stashed a bunch of em ive been doodling over the past few months in this project if ya wanna click through em ^^ aaand I think thats pretty much it!! I'll prolly be somewhat active for the next few weeks but im a busy bean so I might drop off the face of the earth again once winter break's over heh,, speaking of beans!! new bug sona!! Canary's still my mascot but Junebug kinda like represents me I suppose :3 Have a lovely day yall!! ^
