New Year & Working Life

Ahoooy! I don't really spend much time doing personal blogs but I'm in the mood for a writey write and while I have plenty of things I should be writing instead of this, I'm gonna get this out of my head instead!

With my third year of university behind me and my results acquired being more than adequate to get me onto the fourth year for Masters, I've moved into my new place and just about finished getting my room in order. I adore it; to say it's double the size of my previous room would be accurate. Everything feels so spacious and open! I think I showed Chary and a few others doing Twitch my old room, I'm sure they'd attest to this. Anyway, I'll throw a few pictures in so you can see my current digs.

To give a little narration to the layout, we have my lovely bed on the left with three blankets my mother put together for me. It's too warm for duvets in summer, so I just sleep under however many I need to stay warm. The TV on the left is hooked up to my PC, which you can see below my desk. It's a little shitbox, but it's my little shitbox. It tries its best. Listening to Hamilton as I write this, which is why you can see the album cover on the screen. The desk has my other two monitors, my microphone, and an open notebook because I'm studious and stuff. You'll have to excuse the abhorrent white glow coming from the window, I maybe sorta pulled my blinds off the wall a few days ago. I'm getting new ones in a few days though, so it's not all that big a deal.

So that's my room. The other cool thing is that I've got a full time job over summer working for my landlord. Basically minimum wage, but they're giving a month's free rent with it too, so it's a good deal considering bills are included with rent. The work itself isn't all that interesting; clearing out houses, gardening, just things to get the places ready for the coming academic year. There are perks though! Whatever people leave behind or is being replaced, we can just take for ourselves. In my room, you can see the TV and the stand it's on; I managed to nab those since they're replacing the TVs in a lot of the flats. It's a decent TV, and mine has a broken HDMI port, so I'm happy to get it for nothing. Outside of this, I've managed to salvage a cheap Android TV box and a graphics tablet. Nothing extraordinary, but it's free! I'm happy enough.

That's all folks! It's time I got back to some proper writing. My mind now a little clearer than before, I'll smash something good out. Until the next time ♪

Nice! What a quaint little cute room! And it's a darn nice upgrade, it seems, going off what I saw of your old place.

What's it like living next to God? Cuz that's gotta be the only explanation for the ridiculous holy white light of death coming in from the window? ;O;

PS. get some cute anime posters up on those walls dude!

I have an 11' graphics tablet I do drawing stuff with every so often. Between uni and review writing, things got a little too hectic for me to keep up with drawing in the past few months but I'd like to start again. These are the last two things I did:

I mean there are three other people living in the same flat, this room is just the one belonging exclusively to me lol. If you think this one's small, you should've seen my other place.
 
Nice room, I am jelly! :P

What do you think of your current graphics tablet? I want to buy one for my brother since his birthday is coming but I don't really know much about them.
 
This is the one I've been using since December, and I can't really find fault in it as a tablet: www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B076ZHGZ62/

The wireless nature is pretty nice. I think the only issue I've had is that having the tablet app open on my PC when I'm not using the tablet can cause apps to lose focus (like as if you've just clicked off it), but you solve that pretty easily by only having the software open when needed. The price isn't all that awful either. That said, if you want an entry level one, the one I found is pretty good too. Smaller but I kinda like the portability. I think Wacom Bamboo tabs were the go to starter one for a good while.
