It's the 26th and I'm typing this out and my head feels like it's going to explode when I think of all I want to get done and I haven't. I don't know how much I'll get done with NaNo in the next four days, but it's not looking good. Still haven't picked up a pencil except to write stuff down. But that still hasn't stopped me from dreaming and I've been thinking and having lots of hope for next year. I've got all the stuff amassed on or around my desk of the stuff I want to get done before the end of January. Things are falling in place where you may expect to see more digital art from me and more of an online presence. I'm prioritizing again, and still realizing the stuff I do with my closest family and friends are the most fulfilling.
Next time I post to this blog, it will be a New Year, and I'll have a new format to this State of the Projects. I hope to post a lot more art-wise to social media, well, at least to Tumblr and maybe turning my G+ profile into an "official" artist page or something. I don't know what to do with Facebook, though it could also be useful as an artist profile. If I look at it like that, then maybe social media will be less draining to me. I've been using the Internet less and less because it feels like... shackles. I'm not the kind of person to have a lot of friends, preferring to stick with a handful of close besties (they know who they are~) and eventually I get overwhelmed when I feel there's a bunch of acquaintances expecting me online all the time (or I'm expecting myself to be polite and give them as much attention as I do my closest friends) when... well... now I probably sound really harsh. XD I'm just getting a social burnout. Being around too many people has always made me nervous and uncomfortable. I don't want them all to follow me home. I want to spend my free time with the people I'm closest and most comfortable with and doing the things that make me the most happy and feeling productive, and I'm just getting stressed out from being too nice all the time. I want to be nice to people without being trampled or pressured. ;_; Ugh, this turned into more of a personal journal than an art blog post. But it's just pouring out as I'm typing this. I don't know if this makes me a horrible person or what, since I basically said I want a bunch of people to leave me alone, even get out of my life, even though they didn't do anything wrong. But yeah.
So over the next month, I'm trying to use this re-focus so I can restart next year. More art, more professionalism, and more time with the people who matter most (family and closest friends.) Oh, and more Pokemon, H!P, and other hobbies as fun and not as an escape.
