**Insert awesome blog title here**
I have no idea what I'm doing.
I'll admit it.
Between running an Instagram, online shop business that deals in both online and in person products & services; while running this blog among other things?
I'm not sure how this is going to go, or really what I'm going to be doing with this blog besides posting my art and what's available on my shop as well as maybe some new tips and tricks I've learned along the way.
I hope y'all get something good out of it.
Thank you for being here. 💛
Please allow me to reintroduce myself;
Hi, my name is Lorren.
I'm 29 years old and I'm a multimedia artist.
I have 8 years of previous experience in Hospitality & customer service. (Training since I'd been in high school until I'd finally had an epiphany and realized that I absolutely HATED IT.)
I have 2 years experience in retail where I re-discovered my artistic flair that high school art class had previously all but killed in me; then went back to pursue my hospitality training and tried to cultivate my re-discovered love of art (because retail had killed my passion for anything else just barely within two years) and I was even happy for a while...about four to six months to be exact.
Then I realized when I was just starting either my cert 2, or 3 in Hospitality; I didn't want to do this. I wanted to be the ceo of my own company; I even said so and when I did; it felt 'Right.' Certainly more right than Hospitality & Retail ever did. Those were just what I had been pushed into by the people around me because I was 'somewhat good at them'; but I HATED IT.
I hated how they stunted my creativity; I'd reach a certain level of skill, but then they'd keep me there because I was 'the best at it'. They wouldn't let me try anything new, or push myself; I got bored and everything I had initially liked about it quickly grew stale again. I became dispassionate, anxious and filled with resentment. I did what I was supposed to, but I stopped going above and beyond for them from then on.
It took a pretty serious and personal event (even after my health had already taken a steep dive) to finally see that there was absolutely no future there for me. At least; it wasn't a future that I wanted. I was even going to get a job out of it, but after seeing how they treated me when I was sick and how they treated when I was going through an extremely hard time with a very public, very embarrassing, personal matter; I turned down the position.
I had never felt more liberated, or more nervous, yet calm about where my life would be headed from then on, but more about that at a later time.
My mission is to offer my skills in;
Handcrafts I.e. small scale model scenes, landscapes, events etc, I also dable in making some hair accessories, keyrings as well as home decor.
Tumblr media
Painting I.e. hand painted canvas, coasters, trinket boxes etc.
Tumblr media
Digital design & printing I.e. digital drawings of my own designs, & some are from collabs, (I mark & credit each one) I also have experience turning hand drawings into digital drawings & we can have whichever design you choose printed on items such as; mugs, wallet flip phonecase, regular back phonecases, etc.(also hoping to expand to t-shirts, journals, stickers & notepads)
Tumblr media
I utilize all of these skills to help you celebrate;
~You & Your Loved Ones; birthdays, achievements, experiences, milestones, etc.
~Your pets; birthdays, achievements, experiences, milestones, etc.
~Your Business; anniversaries, achievements, milestones, etc.
~Comemorate that special trip/s to that/those far away place/s you had always wanted to go.
Because you, your Loved ones, your stories, experiences and your life is worth celebrating and should be done so with gifts that are as valuable, meaningful & unique as you are.
It's also my hope to remind you through my work; that in a society that favors mediocrity, in authenticity, copycats & shuns individuality; I challenge you to 'Dare to be different.'
Take care and stay golden.💛
~Lorren

I gotta say, as much as I normally sympathize more with Reo, reading chapter 13 of epinagi and rereading the main manga at the same time makes me feel for Nagi, too.
Seeing just how often Nagi's thoughts go to Reo, his reasons for snapping at him after the 3v3 makes so much more sense. In Nagi's narration, it's obvious that he holds a lot of respect to Reo as a player, other than a friend. Every time he faces a challenging opponent or sees a great play, his mind always goes to him. When he's not wishing to show Reo all these amazing things, he's reminding himself and others that they must keep challenging strong opponents to justify having left Reo behind. One way or another, their promise is always very present in his mind, and he's giving it his all to make it come true.
But then they run into each other in the baths and Reo is acting suddenly cold. He doesn't want to hear about Nagi's efforts, and he calls him a rival. It would be so easy to take offense to that, to assume—like Reo did—that the other has forgotten about their promise. But it's not here that Nagi's temper snaps. Instead, he takes it in stride, and actually looks kind of fired up for the chance of facing a Reo who will go all out. After all, Nagi understand wanting to take on strong guys, and through this and other subtle details, it's shown that in his mind Reo is still very much one of them. I'd say that he perceives Reo as an equal, if not strictly a teammate at present. This is especially clear when Nagi's first impulse is to still pick him as his first choice when they win. We've established that Nagi doesn't let sentimentality get in the way of having the best shot at achieving his dream (think of the pep talk he gives to Bachira about leaving him behind if he doesn't step up even if he and Isagi are close). So, all of this to say: Nagi speaks with his actions, and he chooses Reo for Reo's skills, not for his attachment to him as a friend. He respects him.
But he respects their dream more, in the end. Just like how he left with Isagi not by any fault of Reo's own, but to examine his own drive for football, Nagi once again makes the choice that would best result in bettering his plays. Not because he doesn't care, but because he's that serious about it, actually.
Again, Reo doesn't make the cut not because he lacks skills, but because his playstyle isn't compatible with the way Nagi's team is evolving. Reo would bring them balance because he's skilled and charismatic enough to singlehandedly whip up their mismatched chaos into a proper team. But being a team would make them worse players individually, and Nagi has enough maturity to know that's a step back for his own skills, not one forward. Not a single moment has passed by so far where he hasn't been putting his all towards fulfilling his end of the promise, or one where he hasn't had full faith in Reo in turn.
And then Reo, who has acted cold and standoffish all this time for seemingly no reason... Reo, who is so skilled but wants to be picked even if it means losing and possibly flunking out of the program, their best chance to get closer to the world cup... The same guy who swore they'd be best in the world, but whose efforts only stopped at winning in the first selection...
that Reo goes and accuses him of not giving a shit about their promise to each other.
I think I would've snapped back too

eddie bracken as orville wingait in summer stock (1950)
#don't get it wrong abigail whacking orville upside the head is during their comedy backstage 5 sec to Resolution ending rush#literal last minute conclusion crunch in unsurprising formatting lol; i chose a more peaceful gif to end on. note the prior one's [feet Up]#i hope this illustrates There Is Much Material. more clips than this & truly as good or better a role as any others to choose from here#summer stock#conveniently it's apparently wingait in the movie but via that casting news this (2023) role is wingate#tcm fancam life...we've all been there. akd talking abt meet me in st. louis like maybe i should rewatch lol. have to muddle through someho#anyways there's for sure room to like grab a little thread of plot and enhance it in this story. e.g. orville & abigail could talk Thrice#their B-plot / more idiosyncratic romance there is still >>>>>> the main JUDY & GENE one unsurprisingly even w/o a third convo lol#whoops the main guy is an asshole. judy/jane learns she loves show business so just kinda may as well be in love w/the show guy ig#like girl you don't have to be...but ofc already although her & orville's dynamic is pleasant enough she seems somewhat disinterested#while fascinatingly for our purposes though orville is framed a bit like [this NERD] he can't be too dunked on b/c [romantic B-plot]#meanwhile abigail's Undeserving Of Gene/Joe (she is but she's too good for him) qualities being just that she's been too Indulged so like#in her lack of protestant ethic farm work she's so conceited & sensitive that she wants to rest & not be yelled at???#smash cut to for real judy/jane on Opening Night like asking tentatively like oh romantic interest you're Not gonna yell at me..??#but she's been Hard Working so she will tolerate the physical AND emotional demands. but she's also more Talented than abigail#so joe need not be mean to her Anyways like. okay wild maybe we could rework that but congrats abigail for NOT ending up w/him fr#meanwhile orville's arc (joe has none to speak of save realizing he wants to make out w/this other woman now) is as clear as anyone's#extricate himself from otherwise only getting to be an extension of his father who is generally interfering / directing / demeaning him als#another ''well i don't know about that'' element in that when orville Does tell him to cut that out his dad actually just rolls with that#and becomes more amicable lol like well that does work out & it's unsurprisingly like cmon orv you can't LET him treat you like that...#and if you didn't? he'd just be like ''oh haha okay''...like is abigail supposed to be ''right'' abt uhh romance there but yet she's just#too sensitive to handle Tell Don't Ask / No Apologies? maybe; but they both end up getting to Not Stand For It lol. i think that that would#ofc still be fun to develop. whereas w/joe it's like uh maybe make him Not a huge asshole in the end / judy p much in love w/Showbiz....#abigail & orville out here decidedly Not About Nonsense....but still a bit zany ig such that after the [imagine the foley] hit: it's good#like i'm sure it's ''orville's still enough of a NERD to be chill w/that'' & ''abigail's still DIFFICULT enough to put her foot down''#['50 gender politics] we all know that couple whose flaws & idiosyncrasies allow them to Apologize & Ask & use their inside voices#and be all upset if someone's trying to demean them. unlike True Romance of the man who won't bully his wife if she earns it :')#joe could instead uhh be a harried director who's actually Wrong for being a dick to his gf (if we even include that) w/the various sources#of pressure to make a show Work but there's all this req'd spontaneity / flexibility anyways & he learns that even if he's clenching throug#it he can Not take it out on other people / Make it succeed by Making ppl do anything. & also jane reminds him of Passion for this.

okay. hhhhh.
#so i completely feel like the house is in danger now#the boy woke up just a little while ago. i changed him and had him go potty etc. it’s snack time and he said he wanted to go outside#so i’m like sure why not. and i brought him out with his snack and set up a place for him to eat outside. this is all fine right#like i’m talking to him and stuff. and then he looks behind me and says ‘who that’ and i absolutely froze#and that FUCKING guy was standing there on the other side of the fence#but this time around the back where we were#i asked if i could help him and he said he’s a little lost (??????)#asked if he could use my phone and it would be real quick#and i told him okay well just across the street is an apartment complex and they have a phone#and he said he doesn’t have time for that and he needs to use my phone. and i said sorry you can’t come in#and at this point he was leaning forward on the fence. they just put padlocks on so he couldnt have opened it but he would be able to hop it#he wasn’t saying anything so i picked up the boy and left his snack there and told the guy if he comes on the property i’ll call the police#and repeated that he can go to the apartment complex#and i opened the front door to the house and he said ‘you should let me in’#which is so. oh god i don’t even know what i said back. and i locked the door and watched him stand there a sec from another window#before he walked off back around the perimeter of the fence and down the street somewhere#AND I LITERALLY !!!!!!! i don’t know what to do !!!!! i have an hour until the father comes home#and i’m absolutely scared shitless. what do i even do. what do i even do !!#i thought i might ask my dad to come over at least until the father gets home#that would technically break my contract but i think it would be special circumstances#but he isn’t answering his PHONE and i’m just. so freaked out. i have no idea what i’m supposed to do.#god i don’t mean to panic but this feels like a panicking situation#anyways.txt

can we make jack to the future a copypasta
Hey guys! Very excited about today’s video. A huge thanks to Lenovo for giving me their amazing brand-new phone, the Phab 2 Pro: The world’s first phone with Tango*. Which kinda feels like a piece from the future just dropped right here in the present. And that’s exactly why I decided to make a very special time-travel episode of jackask.
Question 1: “Do you believe in the possibility of time-travel?” I literally just said that this is the time-travel episode of jackask. Please try to keep up. punches ground beef
Question 2: “If you could go back in time, what’s one thing you’d change about your childhood?” Well, I would probably confront my middle school bully and tell him I grew up to be a big YouTube star. Of course, then he’d be all like, “what’s a YouTube?” You know what, that question sucks, next question.
Question 3: “Would you travel to the past of the future?” Listen up, HoOLiGanLLaMA, I’m about to blow your mind. takes bite of burger Mm, that’s good meat. So I’m taking my Phab 2 Pro with me to travel through space and time in my own personalized, home-built time machine. Purple, red… Oh yeah, green one, that’s good, I think that’s good… Lemme measure with my phone real quick. Okay, measuring the dimensions with Tango’s AR measurement tools to make sure everything lines up. Looks good. OPEN! throws chair against tree Let’s go! Just so you know, time travel is not instant. So while we’re waiting, how about I just answer some of your questions?
“How do I tell my parents that I’m goth?” What you can do is travel to the future where, uh, you outgrow your goth phase. Boom, problem solved.
“How many stars are in our galaxy?” Good question. To find out, we’re gonna go all the way back to 1590 to ask the man himself, Galileo. screams Galileo: If only we could see the heavens instead of relying on our mind’s eye. Jack: Whoa, shut up for a sec. I think I can help you guys out. Galileo’s Associate: ¡El diablo! J: No, it’s actually called ‘augmented reality,’ it lets me see a fully scaled model of the solar system. The sun, the Big Dipper, the Little Skipper, the Unicorn, the Unicran, some other ones… Oh, really quick, do you guys know how many stars are in our galaxy? You know what, I’ll just look it up. Thanks anyway, bye! G: He was a bit of a jerk, wasn’t he?
“What is your favorite video game?” Not really a fan of the new ones, I don’t really have the fingers for ‘em, so let’s go all the way back to 1972 to play the first video game.
J: Hey guys! What are we working on?
Guy with Glasses and Mustache: Well, I don’t mean to brag, but we’ve created something revolutionary. You see, this rectangular paddle hits this round circular ball, and then that ball travels across this empty black space where it meets up with… another paddle! Haha!
J: That’s really tight, guys, and you’ll be happy to hear that you helped pave the way for AR games. Check this out
Woman with Glasses: What is it?
J: It’s the future. So, you’re trying to hit this target.
WG: Where are the cords?
J: No cords. Here, look.
WG: Honey, we should get one of these!
“What do you think it will be like in the year 2150?” Ugh, finally! A good question! Let’s go to the future where people can finally wrap their minds around this crazy technology! It’s time to go Jack to the future! record scratch Get it? Uh, Jack to the future, it’s-it’s a pun on a famous movie, uh, where Simba loses his dad, um, wait… yeah, that’s right, yeah.
J: Oh my gosh, you must be my great great grandson!
Jacksfilms Look-Alike with White Hair: Get out of my home.
J: Let’s grab a picture of the handsome boy, huh?
JLAWH:
No. J: Just gotta add a dragon, and boom! It’s pretty cool, right, little dragon popping up and everything. You body language says ‘yes’.
JLAWH: No.
J: Not a little?
JLAWH: Nuh-uh.
J: Not even a little?
JLAWH: …No.
J: Yeah, no, I-I’m busy too, I gotta get back to my time machine. It was really cool catching up, hehe! Call me! Or, you kn- aw, it doesn’t work like that. Uh, call me anyway, man.
All in all, that was a pretty good trip. Oh, and Lenovo, thanks for the free phone, not giving it back, hehe. runs into lighting equipment Not paying for that! Not paying for that! Not my problem!

How can you be abandoned by something you're tethered to?
You cannot.
Unless you're me. And I only feel that way but I have suffered many emotional traumas over the years.
Also these normies can't help me so what difference does it make.
