Today was mainly dedicated to finishing my first read of the Sade book I have to study for my history of enlightenment philosophy. I am go glad it's done. I only have one more book to read for that class and hopefully it won't be too heavy. Changing topic completly I have been thinking about setting up my bullet journal for next year but don't feel creative at all. I think I might try to look for inspirations online or to create a moodboard or something. I usually enjoy my time setting it up, but since my brain it's not collaborating on the creativity right now I'll have to do something about it (do send me inspirations and stuff if you stumble of cool ideas I am in desperate need of help).

calm hobbit winter activities and productivity:

read first thing in the morning

finished working on the recorded lecture I started yesterday

highlighted the notes of all the lectures of this week

finished reading Philosophy In The Boudoir by Sade for my philosophy class

daily Irish practice on duolingo

crochet + pocasts (last night I decided to make a hat for my mom too since she uses them a lot and I have a yarn that will perfectly match her coat)

had to check some behated adulting things ugh but at least it's done now

worked on some future posts (that have been sitting in my draft for months I'll either post them in these next few days or during the holidays I have not decided yet but they will be themed book recs!)

today's self care:

took my supplements

avoided digital screens in my free time

Finished my last day of work and it feels like a new chapter of my life has started. I marked it by taking out my braids and rocking my natural hair :)

My plans are currently to focus on studying as much as I can and to earn programming and mooc certificates.

Happy Birthday

Before i even begun drawing up the animation i created a draft up of the storyboard to get an idea and a feel of where my character would going and what was going to happen during the process of the animation. 

(Storyboard)

After drawing up the storyboard for my animation i started drawing up each individual slide one at a time drawing each individual movement of my character and what they are doing and all the tiniest of movements created with each action of movement.

(a small example of each movement)
