pretty chill month! went outa town a couple times and had a good time. did the usual spend time with my awesome partner and my friends and family and stuff. had a lot of rlly good food and all that.
dropped my CD video in the middle of the month and the reception to it has been amazing :D lots of very nice messages from friends about music and collecting. and damn! such an overwhelmingly warm reception from random ppl finding the video and commenting and visiting my site and going on my guestbook :D accidentally spending months on the video paid off... very encouraging to hear how many people really liked the style of video and resonated with me sharing my thoughts and my collection. also i have so much awesome music recommended to me that i have to listen to >:) so grateful that so many people liked the video...
initially felt a good rush of motivation to work on my next video after the CD video was so well recieved. but being 9 months into unemployment is taking its toll on me. so many emails, applications, interviews and meetings that just go cold or go nowhere. i know the industry i studied for is in decline and where i live has little to no work for my field so i've been more and more open to any creative job where i can work in person with other people making something. or any creative job where i can work remote. the teaching job i mentioned a bit ago went cold out of nowhere which was a shame because i'd really like a teaching job where i could guide younger artists and give them tools to grow their skills and creativity.
but yeah despite how much i'd like to finish my album and make a bunch more videos, being unemployed for this long is eating away at my mental as my money keeps going down from paying off my student loans. i'd like to find something i can do part-time that won't drain me too much so i can still have energy for my personal work while having the structure and passive income of a job, but at this point i'll lowkey do anythang that works w/ my current situation.
anyway! i'll figure it out. following a couple leads this month and as always i'll take my time with stuff and do my thang. gonna plan out my month and hopefully finish a couple projects while i figure out my job stuff. seeya next month.
