In Which Balance on French History is Hard to Get Correctly

Good evening, my friend, dear reader of this present post! Happy Monday of a new week! The month of April 2026 reaches its final days, hopefully those will proceed nicely. How are you? Hopefully your werkend went well and with no incidents? Those can be disruptive and bothersome. My own set of days went okay overall. I did receive an important document this Friday, which was the results of my neuropsychological evaluation. As it turns out, I have an IQ above average! It caught me by surprise and I am so happy to see it! My own is at 110, and though this is not exactly what would be called "geniality" territory, that is quite functional and then some, therefore I am happy, on that end. The test flagged exactly what is going on in my head, the result is not entirely positive, and this is not that it can be fixed or cured, it is frustrating how that is not the case with brain issues and quirks, just mitigated and dealt with. I do not have ADHD, but I do have OCD, in a level high...

In which the sketch week continues! Meet Trent Bronswick

Hello to you Mr. Dear reader and good morning in this beautiful day of Saturday! How are you? Hope everything is fine, and as always wish you the best! Today is another day on our sketch week! Are you guys enjoying it? I hope so, I know that it's been really funny for me, I'm loving sharing it all with you! Well so today it's being a hot day, it rained but the sun that comes after wipes all the hopes of chilliness far far away, no sweaters for me. So, without further due, let me introduce you to Trent Bronswick and his scared expression!


Trent is scared of a bunch of things: the dark, insects, Chemistry tests, crowded places, and so on! Most of this things are just really uncomfortable feelings that makes his face pratically frozen in his apprehensive and scared expression, but he has some real phobias as well, such as claustrophobia, and as you can expect he has a really anxious personality, but he's more than fear! He's a good listener, he always dresses well and he's always really clean, he's organized and has a gifted memory. Even though he tends to be lonely he likes some people very dearly, such as his family and some friends as well. He likes quiet places and peanut butter. 
And he was born from another sketch I made in an uninspired moment! Let me show you all the doodle that ended up with him: 


So yes, I just sketched this some days before Trent... I liked the idea, but wasn't satisfied with it, and just wasn't in the mood to draw that day, so I kept it in my folder. Later in this week, I organized the drawing better and that's how Trent Bronswick was born! That drawing doesn't sound like it, but definitely is an achievement for me concerning painting with color pencils, since I tried something new with the lines and shading. Like Noah Sliperson, it was a sketch that came out of nowhere and that in the end I liked it!
And our mutual friend, Trent Bronswick, is what we have for today!!! If you're still here reading this you're the best! Can't thank you enough for being here! I see you next time!
