  • My job title is Storyboard artist/3D Generalist but I haven’t really done any storyboards or 3D stuff for about a month. I’m more of a compositor now working for a small production studio. However, since it’s client work and the big boss has been off on a press tour, I haven’t really had anything to do for the past 2 weeks. I’d wake up around 10-11, lay in bed until maybe 12 or so. I’d get out of bed, go buy a coffee from McDonald’s, and then either watch tv or play my Xbox. Rinse and repeat unless something interesting happens that day. Sometimes I’d get a task from work which usually takes me about 1 to 2 hours to finish then I’d do nothing again. I basically do nothing all day and get paid for it. Sounds pretty awesome but I’m bored out of my mind.




  • I’m on the cusp of the change between Gen Z and Millennial and I’m with you in this. When I graduated college and got my bachelor’s, I envisioned a life where I’d live in a big city, go do some interesting work, and in my off time I’d be able to finally afford to travel. Explore the world. Meet interesting people and do interesting things. But, I was quickly humbled.

    I had to fight, I mean literally FIGHT for my current job for a year. No matter what I did, I couldn’t get one since I had no experience and no one wants a college graduate. Now that I have one, I sit about 6 to 7 hours a day in front of a computer. I’m having lower back problems and the lack of exercise is giving me gut problems. I can’t afford to live my own so I can forget about traveling. And, now, my contract is nearing its end so I might not even have a job soon.

    This was the world we were handed and, now that I’ve experienced it, I’m looking forward to the day everything goes haywire and we start all over again.





  • The idea of being in a relationship scares me. I grew in a house where my parents had fights, sometimes violent but most times quiet and tense. My sister has had a few relationships where she had to physically take a gun away from her boyfriend. My closest aunty has an on/off relationship with her boyfriend. And, the rest of my family, with the exception of one or two of my aunts and uncles, are all either single or having relationship issues.

    Who’s to say that I won’t be roped into that? I still have nightmares about the fights that still happen to this day. I cower everytime I hear someone raise their voice and I retreat back to my room whenever I feel that tension. I don’t want my future spouse to go through something like that so I’d rather just stay alone.







  • I daily drive a Z Fold 5 and I can’t imagine having to use a non-foldable now. I use it mostly to watch shows and YouTube and it’s great. The screen size and oled display is amazing to watch stuff on. But, I also do a lot of other things as well. I bought the pen for it so I doodle on it whenever I’m waiting for something or I mess around in FL Studio and make little jingles. And, what I found to be amazing is that I can use Dolphin on it so I can play GameCube games on it without any lag. I’ve played through all of paper mario on my phone. I also use it to do a lot of reading and writing to so its great for that and also reading manga and comic books. The screen is insanely bright when you want it to be and the speakers are…well as good as you can expect from a phone but they’re still pretty good.
