All my life I was taught to relent and not be selfish. Its the right thing to do, they said. What a mistake that was.

I now realize that being in the workforce is a dog eat dog world that will consume those that allow other people to walk all over them.

Naiveté will only drown my self-worth down.

I love spicy food. it fills me with delight, but tortures my gut everytime I partake

Is it worth it? absolutely! though the stomach pains can get real bad at times..

Hmm I realized that I have shared nothing but my work rants these last few months..

sorry, I will share more interesting stuff from now on as well!

i was excited to start a new class with a new set of students, when I got jumpscared by a price change, that dictated that I will get half of what I am supposed to be getting per monh.

I love getting paid by exposure.., it really does keep the lights on.

I have vented and I have rested!

I think I'm about ready to return with most of my energy and willpower back!

I still need some to re-adapt to my old routine though. The change of pace was a tad too drastic for me to handle

I wanna draw so bad.. but I got so much work to do..

But I really want to draw.. but I will absolutely lose track of time, and then my work would have been neglected by the end of it...

New neighbors!

I took initiative and greeted them

They look at me like I'm gonna do something to their family

I couldn't get any info out other than my name, before they dismiss me

Lovely. Just lovely.

Seems like saying hi is a threatening display nowadays.

Guess what? I experienced this thing called the "paid by exposure" thingy.

I mean sure, my name actually got spread around, but man, simply getting people to know my name won't feed me nor pay my bills rn.

3 classes, with only a 1 day notice before i have to hold one. I can't keep going like this

Getting new students is a joyful occasion, but when it happens suddenly and I only have a single day to prep for them? Its nerve-wrecking.

I don't think I will get used to this kind of 'fun' surprise anytime soon.

I thought cleaning our own dishes when staying over is the least we can do to not be rude in other people's home

It turns out that there are people that simply don't care, especially when there are housemaids to take care of them.

At least I learned something new about the people around me.

Being busy actually kept my social anxiety in check, its incredible!

Seems like I simply need an excuse to have my own space in social settings.

It also helps that my work has immediate result to share, in case people are curious about it.

But as expected, some peace and quiet would be nice.

I have had multiple requests to draw lewd art ever since I started drawing on streams and or posting them online.

Besides the fact that I am far from being skilled in drawing humans, I feel reluctant to actually go down the rabbit hole of lewdness.

I think I am not ready yet. Perhaps one day.
June 25, 2025 at 9:58 AM
I will be back home soon!
Can't wait to start being active online again!

My student's growth and progress in learning is one of the few reasons for me to keep going

Decided on something near and dear to my heart. Hopefully it will go well in the long run

Good news! 'My performance' has finally ended and I am free once more from similar obligations

Bad news? I got a depressing revelations regardint the flaws of my nation's educational system that affects almost if not all educators.

Oh well, more things to mull over.

I realized that I freeze on stage, whenever things go out of the script.

Even though I managed to control my nervousness and stage fright, this was something new that I learned after doing my first time being on stage.

Some lessons can't be taught thoroughly, other than through personal experience

One of the things that inspired me to start writing stories was when I had this old typing machine thingy with the ink ribbons and such.

The bell each time I typed a full line was pretty rewarding to hear as well, serving as motivation to keep going to hear it one more time before I finish typing

Interacting with children wasn't as terrifying as I feared initially.

Sure my face hurts after smiling the whole day, but they are all adorable in their own ways.

I now hold a much deeper respect to daycare workers and teachers for the young.

Keeping up with their energy drained mine in a flash..

Sometimes, when the sky is clear, i gaze into the deep blue, imagining whats beyond that, knowing that space is right there, staring back at me, though I couldn't see it.

It actually made me feel weightless at times. The sight of roofs or ceilings anchors me back to the ground whenever it happens.
June 21, 2025 at 1:12 PM
See, as soon as I start using social media again, I just got locked into staring at my phone, yapping away into the void.

This is really bad. I gotta have better control of myself..

Even in Isekai slops, there is a standard for me to enjoy one.

They usually follow popular trends, like any other anime do, but some of them do stand out in their own ways.

The ones I don't particularly enjoy are the ones that forget their own setting. Some dont even need to be an isekai to run

Big event tomorrow, wish me luck!

I'm not concerned about the audience or being on stage, but I'm very much concerned about stuttering due to excitement.

I know how stuttery I get whenever I get emotionally excited in anything, so the thought of it happening on stage terrified me.

Gotta stay calm

How dare I make grammar mistakes! The audacity!

I will punish myself by thinking about it all night, preventing a nice peaceful slumber.

Working hard is satisfying, when I know there is some sort of end.

Weekends, goals, maybe a break or two, heck just being able to get home with some time for myself is enough for me.

I never want to be in the situation where I'm always on stand-by with no guarantee of pay or break ever again
