I have done a lot of great things this year that I am really proud of. I passed my ServSafe taste and got my certificate, I improved in artistry and writing from the beginning of the year to a point I'd be comfortable enough doing redraws, I've worked hard in my classes with the change to my new school, and I've become a foster at the humane society. While I've only done one fostering project, I had to watch too troublesome puppies. They were fun but a lot of work, and it was really hard to let them go. We are currently and unofficially watching a 14-year-old chihuahua named Jack, but he's a good boy and a lot of fun to be around. I'll also be getting a job as of this summer, or at least I hope so. It would be nice to have money lol! I'm sure I'll figure it out.
My girlfriend and I have also been dating for almost a year, so that's an amazing achievement in my eyes!

- I finished my Economics paper last night, early too! I’m so proud cuz it was one of those few moments where I actually didn’t procrastinate :p
- I’ve been a lot more motivated in swim practice this past month, I’ve been going to the “good” practices. The coach there is a way better coach for me.
- I also wrote my bf some poems that I’m also really proud of <3

Positivity: Currently making a decent effort to lose weight and, despite having no scale except for the wii balance board (which I'm too fat for), I'm making some decent progress. Hoping to at least reach a weight where the wii balance board won't yell at me soon, hopefully at least the end of the year.

I have taken a huge leap in my art style/ability/muse/capability. All the regular dcay's, comps- Just in general Rise has really gotten me back to using my drawing tablet! I'm kinda proud looking back at how much I've changed, good job me I guess?
This was the first cat I drew as part of the 100 cat challenge:

And this is a recent commission I did for LittleMiniCooper:

This year has been one of the best, so far. I have been able to experience so much personal growth. I've learned to love the way I look and I learned to love my personality. Other people's words don't get to me anymore, I don't care if others don't like my company. As long as I love myself and surround myself with people who care about me and help me when I need it, I'll be happy. Learning to be genuinely happy is something I've been working on for YEARS and I'm just recently being able to get there. I've never been more proud of myself. Past me would not have thought I'd be happy again. I want to travel back in time and tell her that she has nothing to worry about and that everything will work out in the end c:

Took me a while to think of something lmao but I’ve improved like?? A ton with my art and honestly I’m super proud of it now? I used to constantly draw and then hate the outcome and stop drawing for months at a time but now I actually love my art somehow? I’ll catch myself making like 5 pieces a day and I’m getting a lot faster at it too I’ve gone down from like 2 hours per piece to having a shaded fullbody it 20 minutes.
earliest art piece I could find
My favorite recent piece

Something wonderful about me is that I'm graduating college (with honors!) this semester! I'm extremely proud of this because I've been in college for six years and went from nearly dropping out to a straight A student. I've worked extremely hard to accomplish this! I'm also the first of my siblings to graduate college and my mom never went to college so I'm happy to make my family proud. On top of all that, I'm graduating from the same university that my grandma graduated from. I don't think I've ever been this proud of myself.

I also just did my senior presentation, which the idea of was killing me for months it made me so anxious. I thought for sure I'd go up there and have an anxiety attack, but I didn't! I held it together and did so well! I barely even trembled which is a whole new milestone for me. I was able to answer questions without forming 8000 ums in the process.

and finally, I have made substantial progress with my mental health. I'm finally getting good at identifying when I'm in a depressive state and taking care of myself so I don't prolong that state. I also identified an anxiety trigger recently and am working on ways of dealing with it so that I don't develop avoidance tactics! I'm making progress <3

I finally understand something in math and I did all my homework from the last unit!
I have been able to keep working on commissions and while I haven't finished any yet, I'm very proud of the effort I've been putting in.
I'm drawing something in art class that I'm incredibly proud of, it's not finished but I'm so happy with how it's turning out! <3

loving all this self-love ahhh

Positivity: There are a few things that I've been working on lately that I'm quite proud of.

First, I'm taking steps to improving my health. I have been diagnosed with a seizure disorder this past year that my fiance and I are in the process of sorting out, but I'm slowly able to do more and more for myself. I've also begun to walk more and drink more water and less caffeine since becoming pregnant which has helped a lot. I've been opening up to other types of treatments as well for the disorder I have and have been talking with a therapist (despite anxieties about meeting new people and talking about personal things) and have been taking my medication daily which is hard when my memory resets and I forget what day it is. It hasn't been easy, but I am proud of the progress I've been making, as it's light years ahead from where I started off the year.

Next, I've been working hard to improve my art. I started out with the 100 cat challenge (and have been doing it on and off) and my cat drawing abilities has already improved in just about 3 months which is fantastic! I still have a long way to go before I get to the level where I'd like to be ideally, but I have definitely seen improvements so far which is what will eventually get me to where I want to be.

Another thing I'm proud of is the relationship with my fiance. It is the strongest and happiest relationship I have been in so far in my life and I am happy to say we are going to be together for two years in November and engaged for a year this September. We are also welcoming our first child into the world in a couple of months (July hesitant due date)! I'm so proud of the things we have been through together and how we've grown up a lot in the past couple of years. We still love to get out and have fun where we can but have also grown comfortable with just having a fun night in the house which is sometimes just as much fun or even more fun than going out because we can be in our pajamas and not have to deal with other people.

I'm also proud of the work that I've done on CS through this ARPG and another one. I have had trouble keeping positive and feeling like I had a purpose every day for the past year (almost year and a half now oof) but coming online and working on developing my characters and talking to people on here has made a world of difference.
