Hello lazy summer.

I've been relaxing for a whole week now. Crickey it feels nice.
No drawing or anything quite yet, I'm just doing a bunch of gaming marathons until I get the urge to pick up a pencil again. I've been playing lots and lots of Persona3, Kingdom Hearts 1&2, Phoenix Wright and so on... Top notch games.

I've just arrived home last night! I've been needing a good change of pace and scenery~.
Here's a small look of outside through my brother's room's window.















AHHH I MISSED EATING THESE SO MUCH.
THEY'RE DELICACIES!!!


















... I swear to God, they taste really good!



In other news, lots of great things have happened lately. It's a bit overwhelming.
I'll be officially heading out to Europe for a 2.5 week Character Animation workshop this July!
Huge, huge, huge thanks to Michel Hannan for cheering me on, and especially to my parents who'll help me with the funding for the trip (and are as excited as I am). <3






















And I've also won this extraordinary award....!



 















Here is a picture of the gift of recognition.
It's a very big honor to have won the award...! Congrats to Evee as well for winning the scholarship!
