Plants

I'm no green thumb, but for some reason my mom purchased three new plants for me to grow!

I guess this while plant thing started a few years ago (maybe about three or four years ago) when my mom and I tried to grow our own vegetables. It didn't go well lol 

It's because, although my grandma had a lot of plants, besides my mom having a bit of knowledge of house plants, we didn't have much knowledge on growing vegetables. Super excited we started our journey. I think I spent most of the time sitting and watching them when they started sprouting. In my head I could hear myself saying "Yes! YEESSS! Grow my pretties!!" in some old witch voice! haha

After some time my mom just kind of slipped off of watering duties. At the time I didn't know watering plants and leaving them in the sun could burn the leaves. Well all and all they all ended up dying lol We didn't have a plant light so there was no where to put them during the winter when they needed light.

After that experience, I just kept trying. I'm still trying to this day. But I am watching videos and reading articles about the plants I have. Yet, on top of trying to juggle learning new material for 3D modeling, and plants, my mom decided to get a new plant for me. This time it's an Aloe Vera plant. I wouldn't be surprise if I tried to press ctrl+V to try to water my plant and actually use a cup to water my laptop and place my laptop in the sun to grow lol Learning two new things at the same time could probably cause that.

To not tire myself out, I put aside my language studies. Although our brains are capable of a lot, I'm trying to learn to focus and complete projects. The language studies weren't much. Perhaps I should continue learning. 

Anyway, an aloe vera plant, I still don't know much about it. I haven't sat down to learn. Any tips? I put the Amaryllis plant away to doormat. In a video I watched a guy put his away at the start of this month, so I did to. I put it in my closet lol we don't have a basement. I hope it sleeps well. Actually, I'm a but concerned that I decided too soon. The weather feels like spring here. It's so strange....

I shouldn't overthink it.

So she got we this Aloe Vera plant and two vegetable plants. I'm not gonna plant the vegetable plants until the spring of next year. My mom doesn't care much on the season that is best for the plant lol I asked her "what's the best season for the Aloe Vera plant?" And she responses "It's all year around" so I checked the label that it came with and it said that summer is best lol My mom, jeez...

For now it should be fine because there's a soft light coming through the living room. The issue is getting a plant light if it's needed. I should do some research.

Actually, sometimes I feel that my head is gonna fall off sometimes. If it weren't for sleep I'm sure I'd become exhausted. But I enjoy learning this stuff. I'm just not sure how I'll use any of it. But as I've been telling myself, it really doesn't matter. I enjoy it either way. The moment I feel like I'm actually working, I won't want to do it anymore lol If it feels like work, I'm as stubborn as an ox...are ox stubborn?? But because I'm thinking "Oh! This would be interesting to learn" it does take time, but it doesn't feel like work.

Now a portfolio, THAT feels like work. So I'm not looking forward to it. The fact that I'm creating something to show to people is very off putting to me. Usually I like to show things that I didn't intend to show others because while I'm working on it, my intentions is not to woo someone or impress them, it's simply to tell a story or something. I have a tough time balancing both.

Well, on the odd chance that animation doesn't work for me, perhaps I could become a farmer or something! lol I can at least water plants...oh god, I hope me joking about that doesn't make it come true xD
