WIP: "The Nice List"

 


Am I the only one saying, "NOW it's time to listen to Christmas music"? 😛

I think these lyrics are so cute and I’ve been trying to make an animatic of it ever since I have heard this song! Maybe one day I'll make a full vid with the whole song 😊

I wanted to title this as something funny, but it now has a deeper meaning than I expected

 



I made this doodle yesterday, and then tonight I came from bible study that reminded me of this doodle ... but not really in a good way.

At tonight's study, we went through Luke 17:11-19 about the ten lepers Jesus healed—however, only one out of the ten lepers came back to give thanks to Him. As we observed the text, we see how the other nine lepers, though they claimed to want to follow Jesus, really wanted the gift more. Being healed and accepted back into society was what they truly wanted, as good as that as, but they wanted it more than the actual Giver Himself.

Someone also mentioned as they look back on their prayer life and how God blesses them by giving them what they want, and how easy it is for them to indulge in the gift rather than giving praise to the One who gave the gift.

And I felt that.

latepost, Inktober 2021

 

Inktober 2021

It's been a while since I last posted, but I'm happy to say that I've completed my first Inktober!!! :)

Day 3: Vessel

The past couple of months have been crazy: having back to back vacations, adjusting to serving on Friday's, preparing my sister's baby shower, and trying to remember what it feels like working full-time hours again (yeup, got a new job two weeks ago!).

Day 21: Fuzzy

Aside from all the busyness, I was really trying to push through doing Inktober. I've always wanted to do it, but was never able to stay committed. I didn't really follow the prompt list, but I enjoyed doing a doodle almost every day—helps me stay motivated/inspired to make doodles again, and also reminded me of the homework I used to get.

Day 24: Extinct

(but be warned, I have gotten rusty lol)

more BB23 ... surprisingly

 


If you've read my previous post, I've been keeping up to date with Big Brother—especially this season. During this week, one of my favorites was nominated to be evicted out of the BB house. Earlier tonight, they just showed that another favorite of mines (that I mentioned in my previous post) was put up as a replacement nominee. It makes me so sad to see them sit side-by-side as I know that one of them will not make it to at least final five. :(


Derek Xiao and Claire Rehfuss clothing reference


I had so much fun with the first Craig Bartlett mock-up that I wanted to do it again this pair! Although Claire is nothing like Helga in the cartoon series, I wanted her features to be like Helga since her best friend is Phoebe with the fact that Derek X. and Claire have been spending so much time together in the house. I can't remember if Claire is taller than DX, but I wanted to also emphasize how tall she is. Not gonna lie, I kinda rushed on this one so it may not look as clean.



But if DX leaves tomorrow, Idk if I can continue with the series lol

BB23


I must admit: I watch Big Brother.

I don't watch it all the time, but I have seen about thirteen seasons—and for a while, this season is going well for me so far.

There's actually a lot of players I like (surprisingly), but I really enjoy seeing Derek X. and Hannah on screen hehe. They're not officially a showmance or anything like that (at least to this day), but—coming from someone who's watched this show for over a decade—I have never seen or shipped so hard a cuter pair. <33333

Hannah Chaddha and Derek Xiao photo reference

I don't know why, but seeing them together gave me some Gerald and Phoebe vibes from Hey Arnold!, which inspired me to make a Craig Bartlett mock-up. Hopefully they would even know what that show is lol, but I wish the best for them and hope they go far!
