@Totalanimefan: It seems to work pretty well, though my face gets irritated at work because I have to wear a mask a lot. But I digress. I will definitely go to target the next time I'm near one and try to find one. I might try the supergoop xD It sounds pretty interesting.

Oh wow, double the pay is a lot, and it was probably a smart idea that you didn't tell them xD Businesses are weird and would probably be like "Well actually" XD Oooh saving is a smart idea. I'm currently saving up for a drawing tablet for my computer xD I need to probably put more into our emergency savings... But that sounds super cool! Do y'all have a house in mind already or are y'all going to save up and kind of look at what's in the market in your range when you save up finally?
I never really thought about it that way but honestly facts xD

@Totalanimefan: That's very true honestly. And I try washing my face regularly and putting moisturizer on but not all the time. Sunscreen, definitely need it but don't... mostly because of the smells of the ones I've tried. They all smell really bad ;A;

Awww I'm glad you went back and got it ;w; that's awesome! I'm proud of you! and getting paid more is the bomb lol I wouldn't doubt if you were underpaid, unfortunately, a lot of jobs underpay for what the job actually is. Especially if they know you don't have a degree/certificate/etc. And I agree, I think that experience and work ethics should be considered. Like, give raises every now and then when someone's working really hard and doing well.

@arcius: Ahhh, yea I get that honestly. I was/am the same way.
I get like tiny doodle spurts but like I'm burnt out on doing big pieces xD
Oooooh that's awesome! Hopefully you'll get use to it. I loved my ipad but I think when I switch over to a tablet it'll be hard for me to transition. I've been looking at screen ones to help the transition but I think it'd be financially better to use a tablet that doesn't have a screen lol but we shall see how much I can save up for one XD
Do you mind me asking which brand you went with? I've been looking into huion ones currently.

@Totalanimefan: Ahhhh that's awesome! I'm still trying to find my groove of things that work for me for self-care. I know that I use to love forum sites but trying to find a balance between work and self-care had me doing easier things like face masks, watching movies, coloring, and playing video games. Social interactions just kind of drained me in the beginning but I feel like I'm in a better place now, plus I finally have a computer again which is a big help. I suck at skin routines, I know they're important but I just can't seem to find one that I'll follow through with xD

That's great to hear! I love that they're fighting to keep you! Also congratulations on getting your degree, that's no easy feat and during the pandemic too! :O That's super awesome! And I'm glad they pay more than your old job!

@Totalanimefan: Yea it can be but it's definitely rewarding. I just have to upkeep my self care, which is why I thought "Oh I could go back to Voltra!"
Ooooh that's pretty cool actually! And it's good to work with something you're passionate about!

@arcius: May I ask why you stopped creating?
I know me personally life just doesn't give me enough time xD
Plus my pen for my ipad stopped working.
I'm hoping to get a tablet soon for my computer to start doodling again.

@arcius: Woah! You're really good! Thank you for linking me!
I really enjoy your style!

@Ruby: Thank you! Life does happen more than I would like to admit xD
And I work as peer support in a mental health institution. I love my job but it definitely takes a lot of my time and effort.


@Totalanimefan: I did make a thread XD And I'll keep that in mind. My job can be high-stress at times but it's pretty cool. I enjoy it a lot actually.
Oh? Congratulations! I hope you enjoy it! Do you mind me asking what you do?

@arcius: I totally agree. And may I look at your deviantart? Or would that be weird? XD I just saw it in your signature.

So, it's been a while since I've been on here... I'm hoping to get back on regularly.
I got a job about two years ago and honestly, it consumed my life for a long time.
Plus my hubby is pushing me to do things other than stare at TikTok after work so there's that XD

I'm always down to chat and I was thinking about getting back into roleplaying but I haven't done that in ages so I don't know how well I would do honestly. Plus I can only post after work really, and I work 8-5 central time.

Anyways, why is this titled Awkward?
Mainly because I don't know what to post and I feel pretty awkward.

But hello, I am back! XD

@Totalanimefan: I know ;A; it's been a while since I was last on but I'm hoping to get back into it lol I might make a post xD
Posted in I feel like.. Posted 2 years ago

Same here honestly. Then I don't know how to start back in. Like do I make a post on general chit-chat or do I make a hangout? XD I haven't seen my friends on here recently, I don't know if they get on anymore. I miss forum sites but work has been my whole life these past couple of years.

Oof, I low-key wasn't thinking it'd be that much.
I will say it's a beautiful figurine of Temari. <3
