My sturdy Nokia, which I have for 5 years or so, is becoming less and less useful/powerful. The battery life is decreasing pretty quickly, It doesn't want to connect to the internet anymore, I have the feeling some people can't call me or don't receive my texts and it froze 2-3 times just last month...
And even though I'm not the biggest fan of smartphones, I think it's time to finally get one myself. I found some useful apps (I still hate that word) that only smartphones can use anyway.
Now the thing is... I don't know anything about smartphones. Like seriously, I feel like a grandpa around those things. I'm so adjusted to using buttons, just typing on my gf's smartphone is a disaster. But apparently smartphones wit physical keyboards are way too expensive, so I guess I'll have to adjust myself to that.
And as there are a LOT of smartphones, I just have no idea which one I should pick. Maybe someone knows a suggestion for me? It shouldn't be an iPhone, preferably have Android. I don't really care about memory space (although it should have enough RAM to run smoothly enough) and it should have an okay battery life. Also decent sound quality obviously, and not too expensive.
It's really weird how I'm only 20 years old and technology is already going too fast for me
I also got my grades back last week. Let's just say they're.... pretty low for my standards? I passed 3 out if 5 courses, and the other two are right below the amount you need to pass. One of them is is just a project I can still continue to work on (because the researc, documentation, preproduction are all pretty great, it's just the final product that's not so good) and the other one is Scripting, and I hate scripting. Hopefully they'll just let me pass at the end of this year, because I am not going to redo that. As the Dutch say, no hair on my head that thinks about that.
Speaking about school, I'll start my internship next week. This probably means that I'll mostly be active during the evenings, I have no idea how much they'll allow me to be on dA/Skype/Twitter during the working hours. But this also means that I got no homework, so I actually have more free time, and that means more time to draw. That is, if I don't have an art block.
I am also looking for new clothes for Lucy! Not to change her usual style, but that she has more things to wear instead of a cropped shirt and short jeans. It can be anything, as long as it suits her (which means a bit revealing, and simple, not too many fringes and such.)
And as a final note, I think I'm going to keep Journals for bigger amounts of text and Status Posts for smaller things, otherwise Journals are more like weekly newspapers about my oh so interesting life

The moment when a drawing is taking over 4 months
I'm currently drawing a huge thing which is taking much longer than expected (also because of job and having Lego as another hobby), so I'm making something small to fill in the gap. Maybe I can get another Lego update out soon, because I am currently also struggling with that lol
NEW: Mastodon, BlueSky and Linktree
With the whole Twitter thing going on, I have decided to join Mastodon and BlueSky! On Mastodon I am, and how else could it be, on the furry.horse instance: https://furry.horse/@Goomuin And if you're already on BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/goomuin.bsky.social To make things easier, I've also made a Linktree with all the websites I'm on and actively use: https://linktr.ee/goomuin These are for now not replacements for Twitter, just more backups and alternatives where I post the same stuff :)
It's my birthday yet again
God, already 28, time sure flies... Went to the spa to celebrate it, nothing like spending your birthday naked, massaged, exfoliated, sweaty and relaxed uwu I will definitely try to post more journals! With Twitter turning more and more into a shithole, I would love to try to get more journals out, with a fursuit pic included, if I don't forget :D As to kickstart this, here are some recent updates from me: My gf and I got a cat! Her name is Poppy and we adopted her from a shelter. She's still young and really playful, but also very clumsy lol I've started going to the gym a couple months ago and I'm seeing results! Can't believe it's possible for me to get a toned belly, but it's getting there! I'm also still working to improve Goomare's 3D model. I was not happy with the way her tanktop and pants look, so I'm reworking those. Until next time~
Small Twitter change for 2023
This is mostly just for everyone who follows me on Twitter, but I am phasing out my art account (GoomuinArts) and will from this year on be posting all my art on my main Twitter instead (which is https://twitter.com/Goomuin) Of course there will be no changes here, having 3 Twitter accounts has just become annoying lol Have a late Happy New Year!

Ik zou voor Samsung gaan, ik heb mijn mobiel al heel vaak laten vallen (ook op de voorkant) maar het scherm is nog steeds heel. xD Volgens mij zijn die ook niet héél duur, iig, dat hangt er vanaf of je er een abonnement bij neemt. Ik heb zelf een abonnement inclusief x MB voor internet (weet zo even niet uit mijn hoofd hoeveel).
Maar als je dan een abonnement neemt meteen bij de aankoop, hoef je de prijs voor je mobiel ook niet in één keer te betalen.
Al is een abonnement op de lange termijn volgens mij duurder maar goed, ik heb het zelf altijd zo gedaan omdat ik dat fijner vind, misschien dat jij liever je mobiel koopt en daarna pas voor een abonnement gaat kijken.
En qua type.. ben je op zoek naar een grote of een kleine telefoon? De mobiel die ik nu heb, de Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini werkt op zich prima, maar aangezien je die zo irritant vond typen is het misschien handiger om een grotere mobiel te nemen, ook al neemt die meer ruimte in. Dan kom je denk ik bij de Samsung Galaxy S5 of S6 terecht. Maar goed, er zijn heel wat telefoons waar je uit kan kiezen dus gewoon even wat op internet rondkijken?
Nokia heeft ook heel veel smartphones, maar daar heb ik geen ervaring mee.
