Every year I endeavor to have a theme for the year, and I try to make changes in my life involving that theme. Last year (2017), the theme was the Year of Honesty, which involved me being more honest with myself and deciding on what I actually wanted to do. After doing a lot of reflection, I have decided that this year (2018), will be the Year of Creativity. You're probably wondering what that entails. Well, let me tell you. YouTube channel
As I mentioned in an earlier blog post, I'm going to be starting a YouTube channel. Ever since I found out that people actually could make a living on YouTube, I've always had this little voice in my head that told me that maybe I could make some money on YouTube. Sure, I wouldn't expect to be making a living off of it, but maybe I could at least get some money doing something I'd love to do. There is some things that I'll have to work out about my channel, but as with any creative pursuit, it doesn't matter how poorly you start, as long as you work towards getting better. Music You may have seen that I posted somewhere or maybe I told you directly about music that I've written. I did this just to put my toes in the water for another creative pursuit I'm going to try to put into my life, creating music. I've always found it interesting that some people can put such emotion and strength into the music I listen to. While I have very minimal musical talent, I do have a lot of music in my mind that I want to share, so I will be trying to write some music. NaNoWriMo What, again? Yes, this year I will be doing NaNoWriMo again. I was unsuccessful last year because of a few things out of my control, but that doesn't mean it was useless. I learned a lot about myself as a writer and as a person. The main thing I learned about myself is that I need to be more adaptable with where and how I can write. Even though I failed, that doesn't mean failure is the end of the line. It just means that I can try again. Which I will. Fine Art As I may have told you, I am currently in college, studying graphic design. From that, you can probably gather that I enjoy creating art, and I can confirm that your assumption is true. However, while I do enjoy it, I am not great at it, so this year I will also be trying to better my fine art skills. Specifically, I will mainly be focusing on figure drawing and drawing realistically. I took a figure drawing class last year around this time, but I wasn't able to get that good at it, while I did learn a lot. So, in conclusion, this year will be filled with creative pursuits and attempts to make myself a more well-rounded person in the creative field. I haven't yet decided when I will be focusing on each element of this year (aside from NaNoWriMo), but I will be figuring that out (and possibly sharing it in a future blog post) in the coming days. That's all from me for now. --Kyta Comments are closed.
