Long time no see! I miss you, everyone, I hope you're well đ I'm still working on my book and drawing #illustrations for the first chapter, so I'm not really present on any social media - there's still a lot going on, health matters persist... But amidst it all! Something absolutely crazy happened, which I still have yet to properly grasp as it feels like I'm dreaming! đ Such things only happen in the movies, don't they?
Something I would never expect! I already mentioned a few times in my stories that I love watching
@raphael Gomes on YouTube, but I've never really had the opportunity to #draw him (and Salem đ„ș), despite having it planned for a while. âš Oh my, I don't even know where to start! Two months ago I was watching one of his advent calendar videos and he mentioned a #PS5 giveaway (Oh yes, can you see where I'm going with this?! 'Cause I'm still in a shock! đ) and I casually thought I might try entering, just for the fun of it, haha, what a thought, "what a crazy video", why not?... I didn't think much of it at all, until I got a message from him, saying I freaking won? đ
At first I "KNEW it was one of those robots messaging me", so I nearly brushed it off and deleted the notification without looking at it twice, when I noticed it was the official account I'd messaged before! đ
I'm so grateful and can't believe Rapha just sent it to me (with a really lovely note too đ) and all of these kind messages, I don't even know how to express my gratitude or how to reciprocate his generosity! The PlayStation 5 (slim) is so beautiful (those who know how much I'm into technology, I'm really really excited to even see (âšhaveâš) it in person! Any tips for dealing with a #cybersickness will be highly appreciated in the upcoming months. đ)!!
It probably sounds silly, but I didn't have the best months of my life lately and somehow I'm perceiving this as a sign, things might be changing for the better? Like, do these things just happen? đ„ș
So, I drew a little something to thank you,
@raphael once more, not just for the PlayStation but for the positivity and hope that you brought. I can never pay this off to you. đ Thank you, Mikaela #digitalart
