Hewo, SGland! It's been a while I haven't done any blog homework, and I wanted to write about this specific subject (what are you the most grateful for?); I am not sure if there are days to post those blogs, but.... anyway! I really miss writing blogs on here, so here we go!
It's been now a year and almost 4 months since I've started my journey on this website, and my first year anniversary as an official SG is approaching. I will always remember the dates: first of April 2020, I became a hopeful when my first set was submitted; July 20th is when my first set went live; and on August 2nd, I received THE message that my first and debut set got SOTD!
I was, I am, and I will forever be grateful for this as I did not expect my very first set to get SOTD. I am grateful towards SG, the community and the fans to have believed in me in such a short time. And of course, to my photographer @gregorhidalgo to have contacted me because I had no idea how to contact photographers.... XD Since then, I have done a lot of sets, and more will come. There are some that I still hope to see SOTD because I am really proud of them notably Not So Sheepish, Afternoon Tea and My Reflection. I have other sets in queue at the moment that are very much me, and that I also hope I will see them on the front page; Down the Rabbit Hole coming in 2 months, ドリーパンダ (DollyPanda, a self-shot set coming in 3 months 3 weeks!) and 君に決めた (I choose you, which is still pending review).
I am so excited about the other sets coming, because those, unlike the last 3, are more to my image. My modelling career along with my journey on SG solidified my brand as being a real-life anime girl, and that is what you will get with my new sets coming out! Stay tuned on that!
I think the first person I should be grateful towards is my partner. He was the one who pushed me to sign up on SG. I wasn't foreign to modelling when I first sign up, but I had no idea how SG really worked. I've always wanted to be a model and a content creator, modelling really helped me overcome my self-confidence and self-esteem issues as a teenager, and right now it is amazing that I can now make a decent living out of this. As a teenager or young adult, back in the first decade of the 2000s, I could not have hoped to be able to do that. It was so hard back then to make money out of this. Never in a million years did I ever think I would be a SG and I would develop myself as a content creator and model that way. SG was really a jumping point into my career, and now I have a successful OF, I have some projects that I've been waiting to do for YEARS that will finally come to be, and I hope much more will come.
But of course, I could have not done all of this without all those amazing fans out there. I've always had a problem when it comes to this, since I have this mental thing that gives me the idea that people don't really like me that much, so when I see all the love on my sets, all the positive comments on my art, and when I see that people are actually interested in what I deliver, I feel so overwhelmed in a good way. This thought is still an everyday battle, but I am so grateful for all the fans who've been following me and appreciating what I do. Without you all, we cannot thrive; without you, we cannot be.
Thank you so much for your support and your love, this is actually my fuel to keep myself going; the past year has been hard, but we are seeing the end of the tunnel, the sun is shining, and I am so excited about all the other sets coming out and my projects this summer, and I hope you will continue to support me throughout them! One project of mine I am really looking forward to is my photobook, some of you might have heard me talking about it too much lol but I am way more than just a nude model, and my photobook will prove it. So I am excited to finally branch out after a year of doing nude photography on here.
I think this is all I wanted to say.... I'm scared of forgetting something, but I am writing this as I feel like it. I hope you will have a wonderful day, it is raining here, and I will see you in the next blog!
