Alright, I have come to a conclusion regarding eclipse...
I'm so sad many artists are leaving, but I can relate very much.
But...
I have decided to stay! ; w ;
I've been here for like 11 years and I have met many lovely people and friends here, as well as beloved watchers ; w ;
I'm still pretty angry and disappointed with the situation, but I'll try adapting to the new DA...
As for those who are leaving... I'll try to manage my other art accounts better and keep up with everything and not only DA >///<
Here are the sites where you can find me (some of them are still pretty new and still under construction, but I'll try my best to keep up!):
Twitter: twitter.com/ShiinayukiShii
Tumblr: shiinayukiart.tumblr.com
Instagram: instagram.com/shiinayuki.shicc…
Ko-fi: ko-fi.com/shicchi
Youtube: youtube.com/channel/UCX10-Snzj…

Thank you so much for your support!! I hope to see you again! <3

I'M FINALLY GOING TO LEAVE DA FOR GOOD
2 min read
I haven't been on this site for some days and today I noticed something extremely upsetting for me.
I'm extremely shocked to see DA stance in the conflict.
The site been going downhill rapidly for me and many of us. Many people left, it's just not the same site anymore. But I still stayed despite everything, even after the AI stuff because here is a very dear place for me as I've been here for more than a decade and have met many lovely people...
But now, I finally can say for sure that I will leave this site for good.
Gonna takes time to move all my adopts and everything... but I'll eventually delete everything here.
To think that I finally had to take this step as well, following the many many artists that had moved out of here long before me.
You can find me here:

Life Update

Hello, I hope this journal finds you well!
It's been so long since the last life update in November last year about me losing my full time job.
After the company was closed, I returned to my small hometown and been here with my family ever since. It was also the time when covid19 entered the country and soon went on lockdown. So I kind of stuck here and couldn't really look for new job in the capital.
I've been going back to drawing to support my family. I'm so thankful to be able to earn money from home at this time of crisis when everyone outside are panicking, losing their job and business because of the pandemic. I hope you are all okay, wherever you are, we can go through this!
So, about my mother condition, she has been sickly for the past year especially since earlier this year.
Last night we brought her to the doctor.
Thankfully, my mother didn't have to stay at the hospital. The doctor said my mother's disease is called GERD. Might need endoscopy but for now they gave oral medication. She also has hernia that needs surgery but it can wait until covid19 situation have calmed down more.
As always, I can't thank you enough for all your support all this time, I really really appreciate it! Without you I don't know what'll happen to me and my family ; w ;
Thank you! I love you 3000 <3 ; ;

Hello my lovelies. I hope this journal finds you well.
I'm sorry for being inactive lately and the delayed commissions.
Allow me to confide a bit about my current situation irl.
I got fired from work.
Well, more precisely, the company I was in is going to be closed on December.
I've been in this company since the very beginning. It was a new company at the time. I was like, the 3rd employee. Now we almost have +50 employees.
We never expected this outcome, because this is a branch company and our mother company is an old, strong and well established company. So even though sales was poor, we all thought we'll go through it. Rather than upset because I just lost my job, I'm more sad than anything.
I had to translate boss speak to some of the head office's employees. Witnessed them cry. And also the boss himself. And obviously myself, being the crybaby that I am lol. He could have just announce it to everyone at the same time. But I guess he wanted to talk, thank and apologize to each of us personally. At least for the head office.
Now that we were about to part, I realized that we are more like family than coworkers.
I always have a hard time getting along with people. So I was really grateful I can fit in just fine here. Not only fit in, I really enjoyed the people here. I even actually made some real good friends (I think).
I feel like I'm back to square one. I have to deal with job interviews again. And the fear and anxiety that come with it. Can I get along with my new coworkers? Will the boss as kind and understanding? Will my supervisor as fun and guiding?
I really don't know yet what will be my next step after this.
Should I return home or stay in the capital as I look for new job?
What kind of job should I apply to? I'm no longer a fresh graduate, yet I don't want to work in the same field as my current job.
But when I have no other choice, I'd just do whatever job I manage to land I guess.
I also have half a mind to go to Japan. Doing labor work, again. I asked myself everyday now, do I really want to repeat those experience? The salary might be nice, but is the hard physical work worth it?
Up until now, I still don't know what to do.
We still have work to do to close up the business. Until then, I still have time to think what I'd do next. Not much time left but well. I'm the type that just let the flow of life take me.
But, I can't help but feel anxious. I have dependents that count on me. Not to mention bills and loans and credit cards.
On the bright side, I guess I'd have more time to draw again now that I'm not going to be a full time employee anymore. At least until I find new job.
Anyway, that's it for now I guess.
Thank you so much for your support and patience always!
I'll go back to drawing soon!
