The Middle Chapter, something interesting

February 2nd, 2026

One of the goals I had this year is to at least publish three books: A storybook, a photography compilation, and a recreation of an older book I made for NSU (You can read it here in the Graphic Design section under University Works!).

I thought of a title of a little segment, or maybe a downright title for a project called The Middle Chapter, where the main thing would be a reflection based on the fact that I am (at the time writing this) turning 23 in a couple of months and am not too sure how to feel about my achievements.

Sure, I have my own portfolio site. I have social medias showing different skills, but I believe both of us (the reader and myself) know that they could be a whole lot more successful if I, and do forgive me, cut the crap. My post schedule is in shambles, something I am striving to change with these weekly writings. And, I do believe it is helping.

This year feels different. Not only because I started with a routine thanks to the job, but because a LOT of problems have been finding their solutions at an (positive) alarming rate. Looking at 2025, it feels as if I recognized a "awakening" of sorts to improve as a creative, and I did.

I was able to get certain aspects together, I'll be it, maybe a little late.

None the less, it's one month down in 2026 with 11 left. This past month has been WAY more productive than I believed.

I was able to make a project based off where I work now, and got amazing feedback on it's creation. My channels are also improved by cutting out the fat and relatively keeping the good meat on display. I do wish I was more consistent, and of course wish others could have seen my things sooner.

Nonetheless, I'm not sure what is going to come this month, but I feel as if I am about to have something exciting happening soon. Who knows what that entail.

Maybe I'll find love, if I am ready for that department...

Ok, I admit I don't feel like that's it.

It could be the clarity that it is only Monday, and things look... cheerful? Im really not sure. Till tomorrow night everyone.
