General Update on Current Status

Been a while since I made a journal entry, but I thought now’s a good time to fill y’all in on my current situation in terms of life and online.

Personal Life:
As of now, things are going well. I got employed part time at the nearby Fry’s Marketplace (grocery store) as a courtesy clerk back in March/April. Though it was very rough in the summer in terms of bringing in carts (given how Arizona gets so damn hot that it actually gets hard to breathe at times), the situation has been mostly stable since it cooled down. There’s been a few hiccups, but nothing terribly big. I also got my right wisdom teeth removed a week ago, and I believe they are almost fully healed, so that’s good. Though it is finally good to be having my own job and being able to make my own money, there’s still another problem on the horizon, as my father’s about a year away from retirement. My father has been providing me with money weekly for stuff like food. However, with him nearing retirement, he won’t be able to do that. Most of job’s payment as of now is to lessen that financial burden my father has by pretty much making it so I’m paying for my own personal expenses (I.E. Patreon Pledges, Subscriptions, Commissions, etc.). Since he’s nearing retirement, I need to try and step up my station job-wise in order to properly pay for myself, something I’ve regrettably been slacking on. One saving grace is that I’m currently applying for Social Security benefits. If those get approved, then that problem’s already resolved. However, there’s still the chance of that being declined, so I need to really focus on improving my job performance in case of it. Prepare for the worst, hope for the best.

Art:
Working on art has been a struggle due to me still learning the ropes. This however will hopefully improve with practice and experimentation.  I do have ideas for new OCs, but these are most likely going to be minor/secondary OCs that server more for occasional appearance and world building. Speaking of which, I’ve been trying to work on building the actual world that my OCs reside in (not all of them, but a majority). If I remember, I’ll try to provide updates to that as I go.

YouTube:
My YouTube channel is something I’ve been horribly slacking on. I do have multiple project ideas in mind to do, but I keep forgetting about them. One thing I may do to get back into things is uploading highlight clips of different memorable moments from RoosterTeeth/Achievement Hunter content, in similar vein to YouTuber Spike Seagull. Other than that, one of the big ideas I have is a redux of my “Everything Wrong With Medabots” video to give a fresh coat of paint. The classic one has multiple errors in it and other dumb jokes I’ve made that I don’t like now looking back on them. Hopefully I can get back into the groove of making YouTube content and not just procrastinate on it for another two years.

That’s pretty much the gist of what’s been going on as of late. Hope y’all have a wonderful holiday season!
