Hello bugs!
I told you I’d be back before finals came to a close! And in case you haven’t noticed, my scanner is finally working again so you have a much clearer image of today’s masterpiece!
So I found a picture on pinterest of an itty bitty baby giraffe (or at least I assume it’s a baby based on it’s funny proportions) hanging onto a balloon. I thought it was adorable and got tired of studying one night, so I drew it. And then I felt that I needed to add something to my itty bitty baby giraffe, so I looked up quotes about flying because it seemed appropriate. Then I found a quote that I really liked, wrote it in a pretty-like-fashion in the balloon, and voilà! My itty bitty baby giraffe had a quote and was given more meaning! Next I decided to break out the water color markers and color my itty bitty baby giraffe, along with his ever so exciting balloon. Next I wanted to add a whimsical background, so I randomly started drawing blue circles with some of my fancy pens as the sky that my itty bitty baby giraffe was floating through.
I like the quote I ended up using because I think it kind of relates to me as a new college student. It’s not that I think I will “fall” in college, but simply that I like the idea of if I ever feel that I might, there’s always that possibility that I could also “fly”. For example, I’m stressing out over finals right now, but when I sit back and think about it I realize that each final is really just one test and that if I don’t get a perfect score, life will go on. I am in no danger of failing any of my classes and in fact am doing quite well in them, so it’s much more likely that I will “fly” than I will “fall”. So of course I won’t stop studying, because I’m Laney and studying is what I do, but I just shouldn’t worry as much as I have been.
Well, that’s that for today! Good luck on all of your finals bugs!
Love,
Laney-Bug ❤
