Happy Birthday Li Syaoran 2020!




Happy Birthday to Li Syaoran 2020! I realized as I was drawing this why I never draw SS in battle costumes with their wand and sword and also why I avoid group pictures.

Maybe the pandemic is a time to tap into my inner creativity, as many people seem to be doing, but I feel like the past couple months have been more of a period in which all creativity has been sapped dry. I think Syaoran's birthday is always a good period to jolt me back on track. I haven't really been feeling much inspiration in work, in my personal writing, or even my hobbies, nor can I name a single good drama or movie I've seen recently. I don't even listen to much music anymore. I have been reading a lot however lately, and I find it cyclical. Reading then finding inspiration again to create.

Hope you are all staying healthy and sound.

Music Spotlight:

Mongol800: "Chiisana Koi No Uta (Song of a Small Love)"



This is a cute cover version though I prefer the original version because of how raw it is. The song was an insert in one of my favorite J-dorama from 2007 "Proposal Daisakusen" back in days I was obsessed with Yamapi. The song lyrics are so sweet and uplifting.
