MY NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTION
Time flies by like a flash. It seemed as if it had only turned 2024 a day ago, when it is already eleven days into the first month of 2024. 2023 was, for a lack of a better word, an interesting year for me. Especially when it was the year I moved to this school. I'm not one to like to move schools, but so far, TMPI has been quite fun. It felt as if a switch was flipped inside of me, and miraculously, I was doing much better here compared to the past. So, perhaps, my parents were right to choose this school for me.
One thing that improved was my Math grade. Back at RCS (my old school), my math grades would fluctuate between sixty or seventy. Unfortunately, my final math exam lowered my overall grade as I had gotten below fifty on it. But here? It hasn't been a year and I had gotten a ninety-one for Math on my first semester. I don't wish to boast, but that improvement made me feel good about myself, so I can't help it. Overall, dedicating my time improving and getting actual good scores here paid off as I had received eighties or nineties. That was the good side of 2023.
However, when there is good, there is also bad. Shadows will always exist when there is light. So, the bad thing of 2023 was me leaving my friends. I still keep in touch with from RCS, and two of them transferred before me! My old friend group also had an argument, and the state of the school seemed to have diminished a little. My friend joked that I was like peacekeeper there, seeing as all the bad stuff happened when I left. Sadly, it seems very stressful back there and I hope that my friends can make it through their semesters.
For 2024, I have a simple wis. Surprisingly, it's not relate to school at all. My wish is to just draw better (and maybe start fixing my posture while I'm at it). I've drawn for a while now, yet constant lack of motivation, art blocks, and even little distractions, kept chasing after me. My art style barely improved as well (anatomy is a pain). I also want to fix my posture because I'm sure that, if I keep my current one up, my back is going to be like a shrimp's! The reason my wish is not something school-related is because a part of me knows that if my resolution was, say, "get better grades," I'm not going to be able to have the dedication to follow through with it.
So, for 2024, to improve my art style (or perhaps, just the anatomy of it), I should search for pose references online, and try to fight off my lack of motivation and art blocks. As for my posture, I'm not sure how to fix that other than to stop leaning forward or slouch in my seat and as I walk.
Now, I hope that I can actually follow through with my wish (or wishes, rather) because I don't want these to just be words with no meaning. I do want to draw better, and to fix my posture, so I need to at least try to put in the effort. Promises seem too much for me, that's why I used the word "try" instead. All in all, I hope I will improve in those aspects and to make it through the year.
