A common story\u2026 stuck at home with nothing to do, wasting away in a voice call, when suddenly CUTE GIRLS?! ON MY SCREEN!!! And from then on, I started my journey in creation! I\u2019ve always dreamt of being someone that could inspire others to create! And I\u2019ve made it my goal to do something FUN and EXCITING to just put a smile on other people\u2019s faces!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">And I kept chasing my dreams of hololive because they were the ones to introduce me to it all!

And I wanted to stay connected with my followers\u2026 so I just doodled something and threw it out there! And then I did it again! And again! And suddenly two weeks have passed\u2026 and I can\u2019t just STOP doing it!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">So here we are, almost two months out, and I\u2019ve done a daily goodnight doodle ever since.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">The day I stop is the day I admit defeat. Or if I get really busy that I pass out before I can draw anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\"><strong>Your drawings have a crunchy style and a very silly energy.
