I've been feeling incredibly homesick for the past three weeks. Maybe it's the ten-hour school days, the unfamiliarity of turning 18, or the gloom of a snowless winter-- there's no telling.

Food doesn't taste good anymore, every room is too silent or too loud, and even waking up feeling rested seems like a distant memory.

I miss the french toast from the bakery I grew up in. I miss my mom's food. I miss my dog. I miss my boyfriend.

Why does it all feel so distant even though it's just an hour away?

So far so good

It's my first week back at school and things are going amazingly! I'm on top of my work, extracurriculars, and have energy to do more and more each day.

Has some sort of magical spell been cast on me? It seems almost too good to be true. Things are just so wonderful as of late, and all this praise might end up going to my head if I'm not careful. As long as I continue having this motivation, things will end up fine, right?

In other news, a few of my friends have been telling me how I've been noticeably happier lately- which warms my heart. Things really are looking up!

:(((((

I'm in denial

Walking about in nature really helps relax my mind. This trail in particular felt so beautiful, the rustling leaves and birdsong almost convincing me that I was about to meet totoro himself.

If only soft magical creatures like that existed in real life... I'd never go home!!

Happiness is back on the menu lads, I feel like I have energy again

When I lose my extra weight and get a work habit and rearrange my room and get energy and work more it's over for everybody

After a boring day studying at home, I got taiyaki from the nice lady outside the supermarket, and drew a little bit.

...does it count as vent art when the picture is happy? I feel like all my stress art looks sweet and unbothered.

But in reality, I'm so stressed, my last exam is tomorrow... (⁠´⁠；⁠ω⁠；⁠｀⁠) Don't cry yet, please..!

the cure to all sadness is indulging is nostalgic content nobody can prove me otherwise

Winter Celebration art #1

I plan to draw a ton of these little pictures before christmas, print them out, and give them to my friend(left) with his gift.

I'll post one whenever I finish it, so hopefully this motivates me!
