if no one has told you this, I wanna let you know that you’re capable of your dreams. no matter what anyone says, even if it’s your close ones, you can and will achieve whatever you long to do if you just set out.
so please. don’t hesitate. set out. conquer.
if you are seeing this, you are going to prosper. you are experiencing a new part of your life where you will bloom into a better version of yourself and flourish. abundance is coming your way; love is coming your way; peace and clarity are coming your way. you have nothing to fear and even less to worry about. the darkness around you has been the soil and you are now getting ready to sprout. you are going to prosper
If you look at the world and say “Yes, there are enough homes for people, yes, there is enough food for people, but if we give it away for free they won’t have earned it and the economy will collapse.” Then you have chosen money (a constructed medium of exchange) over living beings who only want to continue living in peace and safety.
And I have no qualms telling you, that is the wrong choice, and you have been brainwashed by this destructive, exploitative system.
I’m /finally/ catching up on the works that I’ve been putting off for the last month. My teachers will surely be disappointed in me (or my performance, idk), but I know I can’t change that. The best I can do right now is do my best, give my all at this final stretch of school stuffs before summer.
Ahh, summer. My greatest motivation this school year. I can’t wait, I’ll see you soon, my lovely summer. ㅠ ㅠ
Anyway~ I’m trying not to fall asleep :(( wish me luck!!
nothing wrong with being easy to please! give all the books you read five stars. watch that movie again after people tell you that it wasn’t that great. play that band’s new album on repeat, even though it’s not supposed to be as good as their old stuff. refuse to say anything critical about something you thought was cool. be bold in telling grumpy people “actually i liked it a lot!”
GUYS. GUYS.
GUYS.
HOLY FUCK.
GOOD GUY ADOBE releases the ENTIRE CS2 SUITE. FOR FREE.
That means free access to Photoshop CS2 - and that already has most of what you could ask for, really.
All you have to do is create a FREE ADOBE ID.
I am not sure about commercial use, but MAN. FUCKIN’ SWEET DUDE
I thought there might be a lot of other people who would benefit from reading this, too.

They’re going up now in the google drive folder (click here) - they are all, except 6 designs, the same as last month as I wanted to publish them before the 1st but didn’t have time to make new designs before heading to VidCon Australia!! :D
Minimalist sans-serif and serif desktop background are here - phones are included in the above link.
When I get back on Monday, I’ll be making up a few new designs for the spring/fall seasons and maybe 2 or 3 others designs. If you have suggestions please leave me them!
Enjoy guys! xx
