Bought My Dream Drawing Software After 2 years!

Good evening!

Ahh, brownout again. The power is off and the rumbling is really scary. I am typing this article on my laptop, which is the source of our light for now.

In this article, I would like to share with you guys how happy I am today. I am happy today because I bought my dream drawing software today.

Thank you, sponsors!

My dream drawing software is called Clip Studio. Since I learned how to draw digitally, it is my target drawing software. It is used by manga artists, illustrators, etc. For me, I want to buy it because of the features such as downloadable content. I cannot download different types of pen, background, 3D models, etc.

I have been using FREE drawing software for 2 years now. It is called Medibang and it is where I draw my NFTS.

How did I get it? 

Well, I am really waiting for the price to be on sale. Usually, Clip Studio is 50% sale. There are just certain days when the sale is on. I really waited for this day to happen. Even though yearly, there is a sale event, I have other things to spend my money on before I spend it to this. I prioritized things, in short.

Almost did not get it, the dilemma

Clip Studio only accepts Visa, Mastercard, and Paypal for their method of payments. I am happy that Gcash has a Mastercard. The needed details for the purchase are name, surname, CC number, security number, and email address. Whew, after filling up the form, I am ready to send my payment. and BOOM! It did not accept it. I tried twice but the same outcome.

So my only choice now is through Paypal. I have a PayPal account but I do not have money on it. What a bummer! It was close. To be honest, I was a bit sad because I am losing hope in buying my dream drawing software.

But, never give up. I look for alternatives on how to put money on my Paypal account. I typed in Google search, "Transfer money from Gcash to Paypal".

Tada! There is a solution! I am so happy and my energy was back knowing that it is possible to transfer money from Gcash to Paypal.

Here is the step:

In this step, you need two Paypal accounts. One should be with a linked Gcash card. The first step, on your secondary account, request an amount to your primary account with a linked card. Step two, On your primary card, pay the request from your secondary account.

Tadaa! easy, right? Now, I went back to the website of Clip Studio and input again my details. Ugh, the buffer bar is loading...

Success! My payment is accepted! I got a confirmation email as well as the code for the drawing software. I am so happy that after two years, finally I can use my dream drawing software.

Learnings

I just learned in this process that there will be always a perfect time for everything. I might now get it now, but in the future, I might get it half the price or better for free!

Also, it is okay to spend on something that I like. I like to reward myself from time to time because life is too short. I make sure that it will not take a lot from my savings.

Now I can practice more my skills! Thank you, Clip Studio!

*UPDATE: THE POWER IS BACK*

That is it for today. Thank you for reading. I will see you at the next one.
