What's Bothering You?

[Chronos314_XD]

Starting out as an artist is really hard on me sometimes.

Sometimes I know how I want something to look in my head, but I have no idea how to actually draw it. I also have a problem with caring too much about small things that probably don't matter, and I end up spending like 10 minutes redrawing something over and over again when my first attempt was completely fine when I looked back on it. I don't really even know how I was able to get scouted on Newgrounds in only like 2 weeks of being on there, cause whenever I look back at most of my stuff I posted I just see ****ty sketches I crapped out in less than an hour. Idk man. I keep flip flopping on whether or not I think my art is fine or looks like **** and I have no idea what to think anymore. I still find drawing fun and I still want to do it I just feel like I don't deserve any success whatsoever from it.

I’m doing okay, just a little anxious.

Tomorrow I have to get up in the morning to get a few more presents. I am not looking forward to it, but at the same time I might find some stuff I need or want. Also, as much as I don’t want to admit it, getting out of the house sometimes helps.

My feet.. hurt I have come home from work everyday this week crying over how badly my feet hurt. My mom and stepdad got me new shoes for work today though, soo.. I’m hoping that helps :’)

My heart is broken right now.
I had to say goodbye to my little soul pet Lillie yesterday evening. She hadn’t been doing well for about the last month but it still hurts way too much.

She was the cutest sweetest little guinea pig I’ve ever had, and she helped me through an extremely tough part of my life that eventually turned around into a much better time. I believe she’s also the Guinea pig I’ve had the longest.

The only solace I have right now is to know that she isn’t suffering anymore as seeing her unhappy was also breaking my heart. May you rest in peace little one and I hope you get all the cuddles, grass and veggies you could ever want where you are now.

Bonus pictures just for my TBT fam. I’m sure some of you will remember these:

P.S. Truffles won’t say so but I know she misses you too.

I wish I wasn't so unwell, because I don't have the energy and motivation to draw anything >.<
Hopefully, I'll feel better soon. Though being in that awful, faint rain today didn't help.

Signed into Quora through childhood email. Saw my profile picture was our cat who went missing and was never found. Made me sad.

I didn't change it immediately. I'm going to save the photo first because I don't think I have it anywhere else and there aren't many photos of him to begin with.

Family issues. I'm so tired of this. No idea how to move forward from this. I honestly don't need this stress.

I'm getting SO frustrated with my therapist. She says she'll do thing but doesn't hold up her promise. She never listens me. She never even seems to communicate with her staff members. It's getting so ridiculous now. I'm about to just drop her altogether.

This is very minor. I’m a bit bummed; Idk i’ll have enough time to do as many stocking stuffers as I’d like or the mythical creature drawing. I’m glad I had spent as much time as I had with my other entries since I’m really happy how they turned out. I feel like I lost some valuable time and energy because of a couple of things. I am happy though that I was able to do anything since it looked like I wasn’t going to participate because of how I’m feeling.

Right now I’m feeling emotionally tired and generally tired. I took my medicine for sure and while my mood isn’t the worst, it isn’t the best right now either. I’m hoping I can get at least one stocking stuffer done in time.

I’m anxious too about something still. I kinda regret something even though I really do need help and advice on something; I wasn’t in the right mindset and am worried about so much on so many levels.

No dms, discord messages or profile messages or comments.

I tried actively dating for a bit and matched with someone. They seemed nice and friendly at first, and then, suddenly, they stopped responding to me. I checked, and they were unmatched without saying anything. I unfriended them because I was upset they couldn't reject me directly, and they blocked me. I honestly expected something like this. I feel like I was treated like I was disposable. I'm hurt they couldn't just tell me directly and acted immature. "I'm sorry, but I don't think this will work" is not that hard to type. I didn't even say anything to warrant being blocked.

Hate waking up to a headache, my cat trying to wake me up so he can force his way into my bed, and then my sister calling up; still annoyed and asking why we didn't want to visit her for Christmas (lives in a different country, 11 - 14 hours flight) when we continue to tell her the reasons and she I dunno. doesnt believe them? And then says we never said why or wont take into consideration the reasons we said we can't.

Won't believe my mum doesn't have any holiday to take (she wanted us for three weeks, and even if my mum didn't take ANY holiday off for the year, she doesn't have nor will ever have three weeks holiday), and I never get holiday pay if I took any off. I don't even get sick pay.
Dunno how well UC would take if they knew I was away for so long either.
Always saying, we dont need money, they will pay for everything, and we are never talking about money to spend or for the flight; we're talking about money to pay bills, pay for cat food.

I've told her many times, that months ago when she kept asking; my ginger cat Taishi was not doing okay mentally. Would stay in one spot and not move. My youngest would always go over and bother her and I didn't want to leave them in that state incase anything happens.
And when I say bother her, I mean he goes to attack her.
She never seems to realise how important this reason is, or doesn't acknowledge it and it fustrates me.

Woke-up with a headache and awful stomach ache. Got up early, took care of the animals, got dressed, and now nursing a can of Sprite until I need to leave for work. Thank god it is a quiet day. I'm the only person working in the department.

Got to work to find someone has smashed the shop window door with a brick. Let my bosses ex know but also refused to go inside. Ain't ricking nothing.
So I think my boss is on her way.

They think someone was breaking in yo look for money fir drugs, if that's the case why was this shop the only target.

Cold spells.
Also, a little nervous about 2025. It sounds dumb tbh, because 2024 wasn't that great for me and I want 2024 to be over. I guess I'm just concerned about 2025 being worse or more difficult. Idk. Other moments I simply don't care. I think I just need to focus on the hour and not think too much ahead of the moment.

It's so messed up how often I miss my bus by SECONDS

I was thinking about one of the events that happened this year and I regret not making the most out of it and saying goodbye to 3DS online services. That would've been possible if dad didn't throw my N2DS over to Goodwill to punish me two years earlier.
