kwa-son

This is my first art using Krita since I’m practicing drawing and painting digitally. I always dreamed of being an artist at some point. Not a famous artist, but an artist who can illustrate and make other people happy with it. Kwa-san is basically a croissant. I just named it kwa-san because that’s how I read it, and it gives me calm and comfort. I’m down in the past few days, and I also realized that I only post here when I’m down. Well, maybe this blog is a collection of my chaotic mind and unexpressed feelings. A way out from heavy reality. Lost as always, don’t know what’s good for me or what’s right for me. But I’m hoping to find peace and calm my mind from everything.

A Season of Change: From Lost to Found

Published by Kima Rodriguez

Wow, time flies! We just welcomed the new year; the first quarter is almost over. Three months have passed in a blink—crazy, right? This made me realize how important it is to enjoy every moment. Right now, exactly where you are, is the youngest you’ll ever be. So spend time with your loved ones, do what makes you happy, pursue that career, start that business—whatever it is you’ve been putting off. There’s no such thing as perfect timing. If you keep waiting for the “right moment,” you might miss many opportunities because you don’t feel ready. Lately, I’ve been wanting to document everything. I’ve never been good at keeping planners—I’d always start strong, then leave pages blank. But this time, I want to make it a habit. Even though I have this blog to reflect on, I also want to organize my thoughts and track where life (and God) is leading me. I don’t want to stress too much about the future. Overthinking drains my energy and steals time I could use to celebrate life …

Today was my first day at my new job! I was excited and nervous because I met many new people, stepped into a new environment, and experienced a different work culture. It was a significant change, but I looked forward to learning and growing in this new chapter. I still can’t believe that I have a new job. This is truly a blessing from God. I am nothing without Him, and that’s why I am so grateful. I will do my best to grow, learn, contribute, and enjoy this new journey. Another unexpected but pleasant surprise—I got my new laptop! I was already planning to buy one because my current laptop is slowly approaching the end. However, the company provided a brand-new laptop, and I’m so amazed because I didn’t expect it immediately. Even better, it comes with the operating system I’m most comfortable with, making the transition even smoother. Another challenging part now is mastering the Microsoft Workspace and other tools. But with the power of the internet, everything is now at our fingertips. …

Setbacks to New Beginnings

The start of the year didn’t go as I had hoped. Life has a way of reminding us that change is the only constant, and part of that reality was facing an unexpected challenge—I got laid off. It was a tough moment, but I believed every obstacle serves a purpose, even if we don’t see it immediately. While January brought bad news, I refused to let it define my year. I reminded myself that setbacks aren’t the enemy but redirections toward something better. And just before February ended, I received some incredible news—a new job offer! This experience has reinforced my faith that everything happens for a reason. Challenges may shake us, but they also pave the way for new opportunities. Here’s to moving forward, embracing change, and trusting the journey ahead!
