Starting the new year with a bang(from release of result)

Happy New Year!

It's been a long while and to think I forgot to update before 2018 comes-.-

^Lately, things had been quite fast-paced that before I knew it, it's 2018^^;

Let's just say, my break after my exams wasn't like a break- I had work to do for my final year project that there were times I needed to go back school...

Also cos my exams ended much later as compared to previous years, the break feels slightly shorter...?(Although school's starting later as well; got another week of 'freedom'~)

That said, I enjoyed my break; doing some of my hobbies like drawing and gunpla building:) And going out and having fun with my family!

Where to start...? Tbh, I haven't been updating my blog cos I had no idea what to talk about; too many to touch on since my last post...

I guess I can start with my 2018 new year resolution? Well, I haven't really thought over it but since in a few more months I will be graduating, I suppose landing onto a 'nice' job will be the top priority.

'Nice' job will be one with:

• Good pay...
• Good work life balance(wouldn't want too many OTs but if it can't be helped then...)
• (If possible) travelling time to work place isn't too long(lately transport hasn't been reliable...)

However, I suppose the most important is working in a job that I like; preferably in software engineering...?- Not sure how it will be like but over the 4 years in uni, I grew to like programming a bit(tho it can be frustrating as well...)

While talking about this, there is a constant fear of stepping into the working world... I would say going through internship is like a interude to working & I must say though it was a nice experience, I doubt I can last long...

There is this pressure of expectation for result from the higher-ups which is expected but in the field of engineering is hard cos it can be unpredictable... And if you can't meet that expectation, guess it's out of the job, huh?

Sigh, that unknown is what I fear should I start working. For now, need to find job first before I can even fear that fear... 

Moving on, let's talk about my art projects...

Currently, I'm working on a small crossover between fate series and love live. All pairs are already done; you can see from #fatexlovelive in Instagram.

1. HonoUmi; Honoka as Master, Umi as Servant Archer
2. ChikaRiko; Chika as Master, Riko as Servant Saber
3. NozoEli; Nozomi as Master, Eli as Servant Lancer
4. KanaMari; Kanan as Master, Mari as Servant Rider
5. NicoMaki; Nico as Master, Maki as Servant Assassin
6. Youshiko; You as Master, Yosh-Yohane as Servant Caster
7. PanaRin; Hanayo as Master, Rin as Servant Berserker
8. RubyMaru; Ruby as Master, Hanamaru as Servant Alter-ego

^RubyMaru pair is a special one; Hanamaru was meant to be the polar opposite of Rin yet also similar(given how the anime had protrayed:)

I am still thinking of how to fit in Dia and Kotori(high chance of Dia as Ruler and Kotori as a passer-by that got caught into all these; much like Sieg in Apocrypha)

Besides this, for the random doodles x love live, I will either put on hold or just halt the project & upload whatever I had done so far- lost my motivation I had before(that's what you get for putting the project off for a long time...)

I think that should be all the current art projects I have at hand... Hopefully, I can finish fatexlovelive before school starts- Don't think I want to put another project on hold again...(And maybe start a new series or continue some existing ideas...o.o)

Oh and I'm currently debating whether to drawing bday fanarts for all LL babies...

Maybe cos LLSS s2 ended a few days ago, I feel a slight disconnection with LL series... Though a movie is confirmed, there is this... empty feel(and I've been holding off, watching the last ep with subs; can't bear for it to end but...) It was a 'nice' end of year present from LL...

People always say, draw what you want to draw and not draw for the sake of drawing- guess it's never good to 'force' myself over drawing, haha^^;

Lastly, today is the release of my result from last semester- nothing fantastic; average pass and guess after 3.5 years of studies, more or less expected the outcome... Tbh, I was a little worried for a particular module cos I did badly for the exam but instead, surprisingly, it was another module that I did bad(and the one I was worried wasn't too bad)
What's done is done and now onto my final semester of my uni education!

PS: I may be updating less on blog(esp when sch starts)

I am more active on twitter and instagram:)

Until next time, this is Yaiji signing off!
