Gaming break day 7/30

Reading and drawing seem more fun to my brain because I'm so bored. I have a lot of time on my hands during the day and nothing fills it out like gaming does; that's not a bad thing though, having all this space. It's helping me dig up ideas I've had sitting in my brain for ages and start working on them instead of existing in this uncomfortable in-between state.

I read something about actors choosing roles that scare them the most, because fear of failure is a good indicator that this is where their ambitions lay. It resonated with me and I tackled a subject I fear: drawing people. It came out surprisingly good! I had a lot of fun too, I like figuring out bones and muscles and what shapes they make. Below is Mop from Ersatz and a salmon lol

I've also been having a lot of fun with my fountain pen. It's a Lamy Safari with a converter and a medium nib. For now I only have one ink, Diamine Writer's Blood. It's a beautiful, deep red and I love it so much. It makes all my notes look much more majestic than they actually are.

My brain feels like scrambled eggs now so sorry if my writing is incoherent. I'm so fired up and agitated for no reason (T_T)

Side quests:

• have a cute picnic in the sun (the weather is so good today)
• stop crashing out and glue down stuff for the opening page in my art journal
• do a line drawing of my lunch unless my burrito comes out ugly
