    i. a new chapter.

    at this point, a lot has happened in my personal life. i broke up a long term relationship, experienced the death of a family member, finished a very stressful part of college (succesfully), moved to a new place and made many changes in my lifestyle. i swapped my sim card to a feature phone that just texts and calls because everything distracted me. i’m finally finding bits and pieces of my identity and self-perception that were so muddied all these years from contstantly being fed opinions online. i’m getting more creative every day, yet i wonder if i’m always making the right decisions and prioritizing what’s most valuable to me. i deleted the accounts i had on all my social media so i could focus on making my own website. but am i chasing the nostalgia of a time that will never return, or truly sticking to my principles and doing this for my personal creativity? why do i keep having this feeling of having to make art for a purpose, rather than to just create? am i the only one who feels that way about their work? 🦋 looking back at art from 2022-2024, despite being a rather blurry time in my memory since i was so busy with college and dealing with chronic illness, i can finally feel a sense of direction and uniqueness in the art style i have. perhaps something others have always noticed, yet i haven’t. it’s becoming more obvious who inspires me at the moment. something about that feels extremely accomplishing. i feel like the new school year will become a bit of a mental reset for me. i have this feeling i will meet new people, learn new skills and find unique ways to create art through fashion, collages, mixed media, photography. i can’t help but feel worried though. if everything i do will work out in the end and i can find true happiness. i’ve been dealing with a dissociation disorder for a while now, putting this mental wall between my senses and the way i process information and thus my memories and emotions. this is why i can sometimes come over as a little bit stoic. i’ve become heavily reliant on my words to communicate my feelings to others as it’s difficult for me to express them in other ways. if this wall will ever go down, i’m not sure. but i do hope that i can overcome my worries and climb it myself.
  2. Potion seller! I am going to battle and I want your strongest potions!
  3. Jersey Shore! I got a soft spot for really bad reality tv. I’m aware it’s not that good.
  4. Baldur’s Gate 3! Playing a co-op run with a buddy.
  5. “Jesus Marie, they’re minerals!” A small grin. “Just kidding. I like geodes. I am more interested in thundereggs rather than geodes, though. They’re a little rarer to find.”
  6. “Hello there.” A soft smile. ”Gemstones? They’re in my interest as a geologist. The shape and color of the crystal can tell you about the characteristics of the land you found it in. Some crystals change color from exposure to heat and pressure.” Mimi takes out two finely cut gemstones. One is a rich crimson red, the other a deep marine blue. My favorite crystal is corundum, also known as rubies and sapphires. They’re the same mineral, just a different color.” “Life can get busy at times. Thank Celestia there’s a brief pause during the summer.” Mimi folded one hoof over the other. ”A-Ah.. There’s no need for that.” They looked away, surprised by the kind gesture of a gift.
  7. “I lost my glasses for 5 months.” Mimi attempted to make a joke.. with a completely blank expression.. “You young one got a lot to ask. Be glad I’m feeling extra patient today.”, They responded, although not bothered by the energetic pony. ”Foals are born without erupted teeth because they bit too many hooves of foolish family members, so they had their power removed over time.”, Mimi lies through their teeth but their expression makes it seem like it’s the absolute truth.
  8. “My favorite thing to do… Hmm..” The unicorn furrowed their brow a little. “I enjoy a good game of chess, or poker. Besides that, the little moments in life are my favorite.” A pack of cards appeared in front of you. ”Interested in a little game?” An ever so slight smile. “Silver.”, they replied briefly. “…..” Mimi stared at you with a questioning look. ”Unicorns who have studied magic have exploded at least once. Ask Sparkle.”, they replied, referring to Twilight.
  9. awww, thank you so much! snoopy is the absolute best so the feeling’s mutual
  10. The charting's so well done! Very smooth gameplay, great song choice, you did an awesome job!
  11. Just interested in exploring ideas and character development/interactions. If it inspires me to make more art, all the better! I’d love to start out in Ponyville, take it easy and build up as we go. It’s been a good few years since I’ve roleplayed. Perhaps looking for around 1 or 2 people? Semi-literate is my preferred way of typing.
  12. I always wanted to try zapapple pie. Holy crap do I crave that rainbow so much. I don’t care what they put in it to get it so colorful.
  13. I finally have some time to relax and draw. Which pony or creature are we drawing? :eager:

    1. Astralshy

      Astralshy

      How about a nice Derpy flying around delivering mail?

  14. Only when I want to wear something short. The rest are for hygiene reasons.
  15. “Hmm… Canterlot and Ponyville have changed a lot since my last visit. There are a lot of new faces too.. .. Very well. I brought tea and cake. If you keep it brief, I’ll answer your burning questions.” The unicorn stared at you intently after handing you a slice of soft, spongey cake with a beverage.
  16. Final Fantasy XIV: Dawntrail and Dr. Robotnik’s Ring Racers!
  17. I do, I love my friends! Although they’re difficult to manage when you’re really passionate about college and your hobbies and having to deal with chronic illness on top of that. I really have to plan my activities properly to get enough rest or else it’s migraine galore. I often hang out with a buddy who’s also chronically ill, so we can find that low energy, comfy peace together with just watching movies and playing games. I wish I was more able to visit meetups and conventions in the Dutch MLP and furry community, but it’s just painful to walk and stand for more than a few hours.
  18. I put my character’s profile on my signature and about me!! I saw your profile recently! Bubbling Shine is soooo cute!!
  19. AHHHHHHHHH STAWP IT Let's draw together someday!! Draw our ocs together!! Think of fun headcanons and situations and and and PLEASE I NEED ARTIST BUDDIES OTL
  20. Nope! I’m cringe, but free. Never felt this good in my life.
  21. A high of 59F / 15C! Sunny but breezy for sure.
  22. Piece of rusk, some quark and a spoonful of brown sugar on top. I ate it a lot back when money was tight. It reminds me of good times though! Strangely enough still yummy.
  23. This song for sure. Ooooh, sweet amen break and many, many wubs.
  24. I would be the student that’s barely attending class yet miraculously gets high grades. Some ponies never even realized I was in their class.
