#i'm going to see the great wall on my bday#it feels a bit surreal#just a bit tho because all the planning and researching and booking makes it very.... tangible#but if young me asked me what my future would look like#what my birthday would look like#and i told her that............. she would go insane#it felt so out of reach when i was small. like another dimension or stuff#(it's like the thing with small me thinking you had to be born an author or whatever)#(you couldn't just become an author. and here i am. writing.)#sometimes i realize young me would LOVE what i'm doing now#i'd be like 'but i'm single and stuff :(' and she'd be like 'gurl who the fuck cares. you're going to china???'#and if she knew i learned chinese...........

My birth story that no one really asked for but I'm sharing anyway because it was kind of a lot:
At 32 weeks, literally an hour after I had a checkup with my OB, my water abruptly broke as I was getting into my car. A lot of info about water breaking emphasizes that it's not as dramatic as it is in the movies. Except when sometimes it's just as dramatic as in the movies and it feels like someone has dumped a giant cup of water in your lap. For the first time in my life I hoped I had peed myself. Readers, I had not.
Another hour later after contacting relevant parties for instructions, and continuing to hope I'd just peed myself, I was told to get to the hospital as soon as possible. For some reason we assumed we'd just get confirmation that my water broke and be sent home. I literally only brought a pair of shorts and some underwear to change into. This is absolutely not what happened.
I was then admitted for monitoring to make sure I wasn't actively going into labor. Fortunately I wasn't. Baby was fine, I was doing fine, so it was decided that I was going to remain in the hospital until she reached 34 weeks. I was able to avoid any infections and other complications until 34 weeks exactly.
On Monday, June 17, at 9:22am, Irene arrived squalling into the world after a surprisingly very chill scheduled C-section. She was 4lbs 11oz and 17.5 inches long, slightly squished in the way that newborns tend to be since they're 95% cartilage at this point. She arrived 6 weeks early, a late term preemie and overall very healthy and whole.
She's now living it up in the NICU and doing exceedingly well. She'll likely stay there until her original due date of July 28th, but it depends on her meeting certain milestones. I'm recovering at home and we visit daily. It sucked leaving her at the hospital but after being there for nearly 3 weeks, I was ready to go home.
I definitely did not expect my pregnancy and birth to go this way (not that I had any firm plans other than 'have a baby') but here we are.

a little birdie died in my hands this morning :((
#tw death#she hit my window and i went out to check on her#gently moved her somewhere quiet#but she went to sleep :((#this might be graphic to some hence the tag but it's like. a really bizarre/surreal feeling to feel something go limp#and i know birds are never great after hitting windows (even if they get up they usually fly off to die from internals) but :((#i hope at least my hands were warm </3#on a more positive note#ive been a bit on the fence about my course plans too#but this was weirdly affirming.. yes i want to help even if it's sad !!#locking in for my last two exams for the year 🫡🫡 good marks to help the birdies 🙂↕️#ok ada update over <3#𐙚 ‧₊˚ ⋅ 💌 ada’s psa’s

For this week's post, I have a very special announcement:
As of the minute of my posting this,
this blog
is officially
A DECADE OLD!
To mark the occasion, I've gone back to my old sketchbook and (at long last!) made a scan of the first drawing I ever posted here...
...which I've used as reference for a redraw🥹
I've been through a lot in the last decade (as you can imagine), and, consequently, the nature of my love for and appreciation of the novel has changed so much through those years; with each subsequent time I've read it, A Tale of Two Cities has meant a different thing to me and held a unique place in my soul, tailored to its shape at that point in time.
That's part of why it has been such an immense, immeasurable joy to have this blog as a constant, a place for me to capture those shapes (and their changing over the years) by providing the good people of Tumblr's A Tale of Two Cities fandom with posts of all varieties. What a wonderful and rewarding place it has been for finding community in which we can all share our collective appreciation for this incredible novel. So if you're reading this, thank you! And I hope this blog has been able to provide for you anything like what it has for me!
Now this post is done, why don't we call a health, dear reader; why don’t we give our toast?
Many more posts - and years - to come, then!
#A Tale of Two Cities#Sydney Carton#Charles Darnay#AToTC#Dickens#classic literature#litblr#Waffle Art#heads up#blogress#redraw#TEN YEARS!!! ONE DECADE!!!!!!!!!!#absolutely surreal#TEN! like 🔟TEN years! WHAT!#also I tried to make the redraw take about as long as the original but I went over by a bit I couldn't help it#and also also that vignette at the end is an edit of one from an old set of vignettes I drew a few years ago#they're somewhere down in the art tag#anyway. just. yeah it kinda speaks for itself but also it doesn't and I could go on and on about all my feelings about this#but I shall refrain! and instead say:#see you next week for another illustrators post! QUEUED this time!#and again: thank you!💜

I've finally finished my first boss for my demon hunting game Judgement Nights! A guard dog for a much stronger demon, Grub keeps their secret safe and hidden from all mortal or demonic eyes
#I hope the notes help to understand what I was trying to go for hehe#Judgement Nights as a system hasn't really been tested by players yet. Just me.#I haven't played enough ttrpgs to know if something like this has been done before or not but something like it probably does lmao#think original fallouts if all of your allies shared one turn instead of being sorted into a turn order. If it was all just your guy's turn#And you had to balance using your AP wisely because whatevers left over you can use to counter the opponents turn!!#I hope that makes some sense I've been writing for a minute now and am kinda tired I'll probably go more in depth in another post#this post was supposed to be abt Grub but now its abt the combat as a whole woopsie :3#Grub needs just a bit more polish but I'm really happy I've gotten this far. Used to kinda be a far out idea but now that a Demons characte#sheet is right in front of me it feels almost surreal#First time designing a Tabletop game from the ground up and not basing it off an existing ip/ converting a video game into a tabletop#(even though its still very video game inspired taking a good bit from Devil May Cry)#indie ttrpg#Judgement Nights#ttrpg

I wanted to challenge myself to draw something comic-like, and without knowing the context of this scene, 'twas fun :3 Inspired by a scene from a friend's ffxiv fic.
Don't use my work/art without permission! Thanks!

Appointment went fine. Got everything sorted out & got confirmation that I should be able to graduate in the spring.
I also officially applied to graduate.
Got so overwhelmed by this & my grief over the fact that my dad won't be there for it that I ended up crying in the bathroom over it. 👍 but it's a good thing overall. Just. You Know.
#speculation nation#i am Not someone prone to tears so this is very strange.#could count the number of times ive cried in public on my two hand (excluding when i was a kid or at like. funerals.)#can honestly say ive never cried like this in a public bathroom stall before. what a novel experience.#thank god no one's come in tho. which. im still there lol ive been here for like 25 minutes now#got the emotions out tho. and im gonna go eat smth. and then get back to work on my midterm assignment.#dont have very long so i need to do it when im on campus. bc i wont have the motivation at home.#but for now. need to get some food. decompress a bit. and then get to work.#genuinely kind of crazy. i applied to graduate. that feels so surreal.#it's been almost 10 years after all. but finally. Finally... im almost there.#doesnt feel real. still feel pretty overwhelmed. but my schoolwork wont wait for me.#i need to make sure that i do graduate. need to pass all my classes and pass them well.#and man someone just came in lol. almost half an hour after i got here. really is my cue to get going lol#agh. sometimes i hate having emotions.

Just finished Mass Effect...!
#I now need to finish me2 before da4 gets here haha#it was definitely enjoyable!#feels a bit surreal too#I think it's a bit funny that they threw in a Shepard death fakeout after the last fight with Saren#VERY funny considering how 2 starts#also like. I get it for continuity reasons considering foreknowledge of 3 I guess but who would honestly pick Udina at the end there ☠️#Mass Effect

Well, look at that, I’ve actually posted something! I joined Tumblr in May 2023, so this post is way overdue 😂
A first post is important in my opinion, so I had to think of something good to draw. A dragon seemed appropriate, as I always tend to use them in my usernames.
The reason it took so long for me to post something, is because it took me a long time to actually start this drawing and even longer to finish it (started in October 2023, finished yesterday!)
2B and HB graphite on 160gsm paper ✍️
WIP pics under cut.
Please don’t post on other websites without credit or permission, thanks 🙏
#it honestly feels surreal finally posting#like wow I actually did something I planned to do months ago#I love dragons but they have way too many extra bits#something this small should not have taken so long#my art#drawing#dragon#traditional art#black dragon#Schleich dragon#graphite#graphite pencils#graphite drawing#artists on tumblr#amateur artist#traditional drawing#pencil drawing#sketchbook#sketchbook art#Schleich#dragons#dragon art#original art
