Today, there was a great big earthquake. It only lasted a few seconds, but it was still pretty scary.

Luckily, everyone's okay. A few things fell off my shelves, but nothing broke. We keep most of our fragile stuff held down with museum putty in preparation for situations like these.

The weather was so lovely this week. WAS. Today, out of nowhere, dark clouds rolled in and the sky erupted into thunder. Driving home, the rain pelted down so hard I was afraid my windshield would crack.

It was honestly very surreal how quickly it started storming. I'm writing this down now because I always want to remember how strange it made me feel.

It's easy to romanticize the unfamiliar. I sometimes wish I was from somewhere "more exciting", but I think I find my current location boring because I've grown so accustomed to it. If I were from another locale I'd probably have this same struggle.

This stupid drawing may as well be the death of me! Why did I have to choose such a complex subject matter?

Quick side note, drawing Hong looking super evil is always very entertaining. I love making them look absolutely devilish! ψ(｀∇´)ψ

At least I'm almost done drawing the tree. That was the hardest part. My drawing process has always been very disjointed and I'll start working on different parts of an image randomly if I get sick of looking at the same thing for a while. It keeps things interesting, but it's a slow process.
