New Beginnings [Pt 2]

Travel back to January 2024. It's the new year, a time where hope is at its all-time high and where the possibility of anything going south seems like a 1/100 chance. There's a full year ready for making new memories, meeting new people, and pursuing new hobbies.

What was I up to back then?

JANUARY

Ah, yes. Back when I still journaled with pen and paper. I had goals, you know? Things I wanted to do, things I were saving up for, plans I wanted to turn into reality. I don't even remember what I accomplished from the list above. 

I sounded so hopeful. Dang.

I also decided to keep working on 3D modelling with a friend. At the time, I wanted to help him with making an isometric render of a VTuber's room (Geega). I proceeded to make the models (like the sofa, elf looking thing, etc.) and it was one of the best times I had working on 3d. I used Nomad Sculpt.

The image above was a random model I created to test everything I had learned so far. Until now, I still don't know what to do with it or how to finish it, haha! One day. 

Anyway, enjoy the models below. 

Everything in the photo above were modelled by me, save for Boris on the left. 

The last photo is the isometric model coming together. Had to make some notes on what ti change or add based on the source image we were basing the room from. Neat stuff.

Now, I don't really recall anything else that happened this month, but I know it was a hopeful time. It seemed like there was so much time left to do everything. 

FEBRUARY

I recall this month being a pretty nice time, since I went to Anvaya Cove with all my cousins to stay there for a couple of days with my aunt and her Swiss hubby. It's always a fun time seeing everyone, but I did feel a bit out of place. I'm not really close to any of my cousins anymore, and since we all have different adult lives now, it's a bit awkward. I don't even know what to talk to them about to be honest. I also did more 3D this month.

Say hi to my cute little axolotl! I saw a tutorial on Youtube and I wanted to give it a try. Learned new techniques as well.

February was pretty much the last time I went out for real (if I'm not mistaken). I wish I could go out like this again and have some time for myself somewhere else. 

MARCH

March was full of bricks, haha. I went ham and ordered a bunch of the brick things to do when I'm bored or in need of calming. It really does relax me to just build. I have more as of today, but I have yet to complete them all.

Also bought a diamond painting set and it's really nice! Bought a bigger version but I haven't had the energy to finish that one either.

So yeah, the first quarter of 2024 was pretty chill. I was able to focus on a new hobby and travel to an amazing resort with my relatives. I wonder what happened the rest of the year.

Well, we'll see in the next post, right? Ciao, bellas.
