Update 12-05-21

Hello, sorry for not really posting much lately. (and kinda being slow with the updates and news, too)

I've been busy trying to balance school and working on an animated short I've been entirely focused on since Summer, the short about a kiwi and a wild stoat (which was about 75% done so far)

Unfortunately, I've got some bad news...

Last week my computer suddenly started to slow down to a crawl, almost barely usable, and it was getting frustrating. So I was trying to back everything up to an external hard drive I bought, so I can have everything backed up and completely wipe the computer.

Well... that was easier said than done.

I ran into a bunch of problems. The music folder took over two days to transfer over to the drive, there were four pop-ups telling me that Firefox crashed (even though firefox wasn't even open at all during the process) and then when I tried to remove the hard drive so I can reboot the computer and continue backing the rest of the files up, it gave me a message box that said "Unknown hard error".

After that, the laptop became unresponsive, so I went ahead and forced a shutdown on it. The external hard drive is still intact, but the laptop went into repair mode when I turned it on.

I sent it to my dad's friend who's pretty good with computers, so he can check it out.

It turns out that the OS became corrupted, which is hella scary ngl but hopefully he's able to find a bootable OS disc to regain access to the files and back the rest of them up.

fingers crossed...

meanwhile, if you want you could check out my instagram page if you want to see me post sketches and doodles and whatnot
