Looks like #Caturday is a lucky day for Misha. She can somehow celebrate now. It's been two weeks since I saw her having an injured foot at the back. I don't know what happened but she can barely move that time. I didn't see any wound. I wonder what happened to her. But now, her improvement is really good. I saw her being able to walk longer so I took this shot. She's now on her road to recovery. I hope she can fully recover soon so she can run and kill rats again which is…

A glimpse of the eat all you can Japanese restaurant where my nephew had his post birthday celebration yesterday. I love the idea of conveyor. No need to stand to get a refill of your food.

@KrisCastro

My nephew had a post birthday celebration at a Japanese buffet restaurant , Hosaku. We had our lunch there yesterday. This is my first time eating at a restaurant where you just get foods from a conveyor beside your seat as seen in the first photo. Second photo is the first set of meat served to us. It's served with rice and stir fried noodles. This is like what I see in anime. You cook the food on your table. You can start getting foods from the conveyor once you are done…

My unexpected sweet tooth haul 🤩🍫 After my nephew's celebration last Sunday, I got a surprise set of desserts for a take home. My brother in law just started his vacation so he brought home a lot of chocolates from abroad. My sister gave me a set. I ate one right away after taking pictures. The sweet tooth in me is extremely happy again coz I'm a chocolate lover since childhood. Now I'm having my feast after meals. Happy tummy here. 😁🍫

@KrisCastro

Sharing this demure pose from our sexy cat 😸 Cats love to sit on our bench. This is the only thing they scratch among all the things we have outside the house. There are times when they just sit there and relax. This is one of the photos I captured and thank goodness cats don't move a lot which make them easier to take pictures. He's in demure mode in this photo. This was taken last year. I really miss him. I haven't seen him in a few months. I hope he returns and hopefully…

A #throwback that makes me laugh up to this day 😂 This is my 18th birthday photo. I'm quite boyish so I used to love punk and skulls outfit on my teenage years. I love wearing all black too. Since 18th birthday is a woman's debut, I had a once in a lifetime request from my mom. I requested for a cake that has blue and black for my motif since they are my favorite colors and I'm very happy with it especially when it turned out to be chocolate flavor. My friends and I always…

@KrisCastro

This memorable #throwback when I used to be "handsome" makes me laugh up to this day 🤣 This is my 18th birthday photo. I'm quite boyish so I used to love punk and skulls outfit on my teenage years (15-20 yrs. old). I love it most when I'm wearing all black. Since 18th birthday is a woman's debut in our culture, my simple request is to just let me wear the outfit I love instead of the traditional celebratuon where the celebrant wears gown and have the 18 candles, roses and…

@KrisCastro

A happy customer here enjoying crop top party this Friyay! 🤩 Yesterday, I shared my handsome past. Today, I'm sharing my transformation. From boyish outfit to crop tops. I'm lucky enough to find a shop that has all the styles I like. It saves a lot of shipping fees. I bought 3 crop tops and they finally arrived a while ago. This is what took me long to post today haha. I want to take photos first. The first photo shows the items I ordered. The second photo is a screenshot…

@KrisCastro

Catching up with #Caturday on a Monday 😺 It's been a very busy weekend. I'm trying to finish one of the sketches I've done two months ago. I stopped drawing since I finished the 11 sketches I showed here before since I got busy with unexpected tasks. Now that I'm slowly regaining my momentum in drawing, I missed Caturday but as the saying goes, "Better later than never". I'm starting the week with Junior Jr.'s cuteness while catching up with caturday. I took this shot while…

@KrisCastro

Bringing back my momentum in drawing 🎨 A lot of unexpected events happened these past two months. I attended different occasions, had a vacation, then I got sick after that. I also discovered new opportunities that added to my side hustles. I was bombarded with many activities that I wasn't able to draw for two months. But now, I'm starting to get used to the new adjustments to my schedule. I am slowly regaining my momentum in drawing while building my new side hustles as I…

@KrisCastro

I miss drawing and now I'm bringing it back to my daily routine after all the unexpected events that made me very busy. I'm getting used to my new set of activities and schedule so I'm slowly reagining my momentum and I'll grind consistently. This is my work in progress. I'll proceed with coloring now that I'm done with the lineart for this shrine maiden. Will post the final result in a few days.

@KrisCastro

Done with the base colors 🎨 I can really feel the difference in my drawing speed now that I stopped for 2 months. But good thing the quality is still the same. I was able to maintain it but in a very slow pace since my hands are quite not used to digital art again. It took me two days to finish the base colors. I believe I can regain the improvement I had with my drawing speed if I keep on drawing again daily. The drawing looks flat and pale since I'm only done with the base…

@KrisCastro

We're slowly getting to the exciting part 😁 Coloring is the part that I enjoy most. It makes the drawing look lively. I'm done with the base colors now. Can't wait to finish the shading and the background. Will post the final result in a few days.

@KrisCastro

I was able to sell another set of anime collectibles a few days ago. The buyer paid on the spot after inquiring so I shipped the items within the day. Good thing the mall is walking distance from the logistics branch so I went there after shipping to sit and relax for a few minutes while enjoying the cool place. Luckily, an old lady sat beside me with these cuties. I can't stop staring at their cuteness. Even the other people who sit near them tried to pet these dogs so I…

@KrisCastro

Abs won't stop flexing a bit of his abs this #Caturday 😸 He loves sitting on that chair so much since last year. I wonder why. Good thing he's not scratching anything from that chair. He will just sit there to relax. Sometimes, his big bro, the sexy cat would sleep with him there. This photo was taken last year. They can't hangout on that chair as of now coz things got messy since the house got renovated. The things are still scattered and these chairs are not usable as of…

@KrisCastro

Aside from regaining my momentum back in drawing, I'm also trying to build my momentum again in working out. One of my workout buddies is this pair of ankle weights. It's been a year since I had my regular workout. I've been very busy since I moved to the apartment and I got bombarded with more side hustles as well. I started to try again a few days ago. Sadly, I lost my stamina. I can't use this akle weights efficiently as of now. I need to go back to basics and light…

@KrisCastro

Regaining my momentum with workout again Aside from drawing, I want workouts to be part of my routine again. I can't use these ankle weights efficiently like before since I stopped for a year but I'll be doing light exercises again until I regain the strength and stamina I had before. Must stay fit and healthy especially now that I have many livelihood activities.

@KrisCastro

Another workout buddy I miss 🏋 This pair of dumbells may be 3 lbs. but it's as heavy as the 5-pound dumbell I use at the gym. I wonder why. This has been my workout buddy sine 2012. I stopped doing my workouts for a year since I got so busy. When I tried to use them again, I feel my stamina draining in just 10 counts haha. 🙈 Really bad. I plan to go back to the gym as well since I miss attending pilates sessions too but I have to start with light exercises again until I can…

@KrisCastro

Beauty haul is waving 🤩 I've been having late hours of sleep since last week coz I'm bombarded with a lot of things to do at the same time, I extend a few hours in drawing since my speed has dropped. Each time I sleep late, I always think about this eye cream. I've been using this brand of skin care for 8 years and the results are so satisfying. They now released this eye cream so I want to try this one after staring for quite long hahaha. I'm excited to know its effects on…

@KrisCastro

A pleasant surprise made my day yesterday. 🥰 I joined a weekly art challenge in Hive. A Filipino community initiated this weekly art challenge for the month of October. There are 8 themes to choose from each week and you can have an entry for each. Good thing some of my Spice drawings match the themes so I only need to write an article about the process and the story behind the drawing. I joined the challenge. I didn't win on the first week but the second week surprised me.…

@KrisCastro

Finally, after 2 months of drawing hiatus, I was able to overcome artist block. I just finished the work in progress I shared here a week ago. Here's the final result of the shrine maiden I've been working on. My drawing speed dropped a lot but thank goodness the quality is well maintained. I won't stop drawing anymore and I'll do my best to regain and improve my speed. I am currently whitelisted in Hive NFT Showroom. Once I get verified, I will mint this as my first ever…

@KrisCastro

Time for self love after a gruelling hustle bustle. 😌 I just had my legs waxed. I will have my beauty ritual with the other skin care products and ointment atnight after having a bath. This is a soothing way to take a rest and relax before going to bed. I will start hustling again later. Toner is the new motivation this time. 🤩I'm too lazy to put on make up and I only comb my hair once a day. But skin care cream ritual is what I really love and I do it regularly. Skin care…

@KrisCastro

My art buddy 🎨 Someone once asked me what device I am using when I do my digital art. Here it is. The brand is Huion. I bought this at the mall the moment I earned from my online business. It is my practice to use a portion of my income to invest on something that will bring extra income. I connect this to my laptop then I can start drawing. It's very easy and convenient to use. I just keep on practicing the first time I bought it until I get used to it. This device has…

@KrisCastro

A #throwback souvenir I found while I was preparing my lunch 🖊 Last time, I found a few souvenirs from Hongkong that I was able to keep. I shared thebkeychain and the colorful ballpen a few months ago. I found another one today. I remember keeping them so I looked for them at the cabinet. These ballpens are sold as set. I gave some of them to some friends and these are the ones I was able to keep for myself. These ballpens are refillable. Unfortunately, the ink is only…

@KrisCastro

Hive PH Art Challenge Week 3 Last week was the 3rd week of the art challenge I joined. It was a 3.3 week, 3rd place for 3rd week. I may not be able to get the first place last week but I'm still thankful for this blessing coz I'm consistently on top 3 and still receiving prizes and it helped me pay the fees for minting my first ever NFT on Hive. Thank you Mr. Gangster for the good job. As my friend @DanaT once said, in muscles we trust. 🤭 He didn't fail me. This week is the…

@KrisCastro

Hive PH art challenge week 4 🎨 This is my entry for the final week of the art challenge. Some of you have seen this Medusa I made for Spice nft project. I chose her for my final entry coz she's the crowd favorite. Most people who have seen my works like Medusa among the others. I made some enhancements so this can qualify for 3 themes, all in one drawing. I added a head that she turned into a stone. I also tried to animate her so I can submit a gif entry. Too bad I can't…

@KrisCastro

It's never too late to catch up on yesterday's #caturday with Angel. 😺 Angel was sitting beside me a while ago while I sit at the swing. His face says "Hello, watcha doin'?" How cute. This cat loves humans even those he saw for the first time. I'm spending my holidays and long weekend here with my family which means I'll be siing these furbabies too. Today, Angel sits beside me. What's next? Stay tuned. 😁

@KrisCastro

Marky wants to spend the holiday looking handsome with his new haircut. 🐶 When I arrived, he ran into me. He missed me and I missed him too. Later on, he cooperates with the picture taking again. I love it when he's not moving until I finish taking pictures. Here's another boss moment when hebowns our fan again while looking handsome in his new haircut. 😁
