Good morning, it is Tuesday the 11th of May. I didn't vlog last week, I didn't vlog yesterday
because I was not feeling great. I just had one of those days where I just felt really
flustered and I kept forgetting things and I was really stressed and things weren't going right,
and so I'd have hot flashes and just be panicking and it was just, I was a bit of
a mess. My birthday was really nice, I turned 26 and it was just a really nice time. Paul made me
waffles in the morning and then we went on a shopping spree and I bought some clothes
which were really basic, like some white t-shirts and some pyjama shorts which I wear as my everyday
shorts, then we got sushi and we went to IKEA and I treated myself to an Apple Watch, which is
coming today! We got Thai food and we watched the School of Rock because Jack Black owns my heart.
This week a few things are happening; I have some edits for Folx that I need to do, I'm also
working with Anna from the Real Massage, we have settled on a logo and we're gonna have
a meeting to talk about a giveaway that we're gonna do, and I need to work on the website
for her. I also need to start working on My Genderation illustrations for this
month. I've got lots of orders to pack tomorrow, I posted my not safe for work prints
which I thought would do well, but I didn't think would do that well. They're only available like,
to see digitally or to buy as a print, for my Patrons and I'm sending five off tomorrow
so that's really cool. Having a meeting with Paul tomorrow so I'll plan the rest of my week,
and I have a doctor's appointment on Friday because I totally forgot to go to on Monday.
Also I've been testing out new therapists and I think I found someone so I've got my first session
with her next week, which is good. I think that's about it! I'm gonna get started on my
work for today because I need to get that done and then I will maybe work on my candles a bit,
and finish some commissions that I have so yeah let's go do that!
Heh, heh, heh.
Hi there, good morning, it is the 13th of May which is a Thursday, and it is
almost lunch time. I thought I would have a check-in with you mid-week/end week, um,
just because I haven't really been here much. I feel like I've had a bit of a busy week in
a lot of the things I can't really show you, which is really annoying, so I apologise for that.
This morning I took some pictures of these new stickers that I have, which are mermaid themed.
This one is a full body of a mermaid, I don't know if you can see, let me try and show you
more close up. This is the first mermaid - he's a bit of a thick boy bear and he has long
locks, top surgery scars, and this is his little tail. I also have this sticker which is the top
half of him just in case people aren't really into the mermaid theme but do want a sticker and like
the person in the picture or sticker so I have this, and these two go with a print that I'm
bringing out as well/have brought out, um, so I just spent the morning taking pictures of these.
Let me bring you back. Hello! So this morning I was taking pictures of those. I wanted to have
one where it's flat against everything else so you can see it straight on and then I also wanted some
that were on notebooks and stationary so that you could see what it would be like
on your stuff. Don't know if I'm gonna have that as the main picture or not, I haven't decided.
I also took a video of them so you could see that they were matte and not super reflective which is
cool, and then while I was doing that I took some profile pictures of myself which was a little bit
tricky because I'm not feeling too confident at the moment and I was just like: "Uh, I wanna look
cute but I don't know if I do". I've been thinking about changing up my website for a couple of
weeks, months even, and not really known where to start so I spoke to my friend
Harry Thory who is a designer, and I did a mini documentary with him a couple of years ago now,
and he's gonna give me some tips and advice on my website so I thought I'd like take some
profile pictures for that and some pictures of me in my space so I can have them on the website
and also have them on Instagram because people like to know who is behind the art
so I thought I would just share that too. I also had a meeting with Anna this morning who is from
The Real Massage and I'm collaborating with her this month. We're doing a giveaway of some things,
I'll not talk about them yet because you'll have to go and follow her on
Instagram and follow me to check out what that will be but it will be fun and cool. I am
going to redesign her website and logo and brand, which I spoke about recently,
but this morning's meeting was about the website in particular. Um, I've written out some notes
and we're gonna talk through that and I'm gonna have a play around on her website to see what
we can do/whether or not we want to change to a different host but hosts are expensive sometimes,
so yeah we'll see how that goes. For the rest of today I'm gonna edit these pictures that I took
and then I'm gonna do some Folx Health work as we had a meeting yesterday about new projects, so
that's what I'm gonna do and I'll take you through the process of
editing these pictures because there's a lot of them. Let's go!
I'm just jumping in here to say, you know when people make fun of white people for making that
awkward face and smile - I feel like I am the perfect example of this and this photo shoot
is just really making fun of myself. That is the white person awkward smile, this whole thing is.
