this blog is primarily for documenting my journey making my own mustelid themed art shop during my first year of college!

it'll be slow but steady, but eventually, i aspire to make something of high quality, with a showcase of a diverse range of mustelids for all mustelid lovers, new and old!

my journal entries will show me setting up shop, branding, mascots and eventual merch designs. tag TBA

rambles will just be rambles about daily life! tag TBA

college is looking scary rn. my schedule honestly isn't that bad looking though! i get fridays and the weekends off for my first semester, a guaranteed work/study day that I NEEDED. i also am moving into my dorm soon..

ive been pretty passionate about engineering for the past 2 years, getting connections from micron etc etc but I just can't get over the fact that I've always hated math.. I'm horrible at it. I LOVE reading schematics and putting together circuits, however. I've felt pretty ashamed of even having the thought of changing my major.. but I'm trying to make a decision that's best for me. this year isn't too bad classes wise, it's just required university foundations classes like art and anthropology as well as "easier" math. however i do want to change to a business + illustration degree. i think i would be happier rather than just larping engineering. main reason why I even chose EE was because I wanted to make money given my childhood (went homeless twice lol) and live a stable life. but id never be happy.

ive wanted to be an artist since i was out of the womb.. promised myself I would be a good artist when I graduated. its subjective, some could say i met that goal but I dont feel fulfilled yet. im thankful my mom is supportive in my art journey.. shes been begging me to make a shop for years. you could say i caved in, but it was more of a personal decision for me to pursue mustelids rather than my ocs (my mom wanted me to sell my oc art since i made so much of it LMFAO)
