Spendthrift
-someone who overspends extravagantly beyond their budget
In gaming, that’s whaling. Someone overspends in microtransaction.
It’s my decades long struggle. Where I have this habit since begging my mom for Thomas the Tank engine toys, game consoles, Yugioh cards, etc

Elon Musk relying on Yes People as bots and his lackeys in-person is downright pathetic. Hoping one would say, “Yes. Losing a trillions is good for your health.”

From memory, I’m trying to recall if anyone didn’t act surprised when I said, “My dad cooks in the family. He had to teach my mom the basics.”
Because I believe it’s near 100% that everyone, regardless of culture, acted surprised.

My frustrations with discouragements and warnings in voiceover.
“Don’t do this. Don’t do that, or you wouldn’t get the part.”
Okay, I’m not doing any of that. But now nothing’s happening. No booking. No response. What am I doing wrong?

Couldn’t come to work today.
Crying too much.
Feeling so worthless.
Always passed over.
Always scolded with snark and overwhelmed with discouragement. Repeated in flashbacks.
All because I want to voice in anime dubs.
And I’m still not given that chance. Just more lectures.

In my home recording booth, I have two options: standing and sitting.
Standing is when I’m serious in auditioning and recording.
Sitting when I’m practicing and in classes, but also because it gets tiring to stand for hours in a session.

I want to sleep…
I hate 10 hours full-time…
Maybe switch to part-time for awhile. I will train my voiceover skills easier this way. I’ll switch back to full-time once I request a transfer to LA.

“Failure is learning in life.”
For someone with MDD, failure is being told, “you’re not going to survive in life if you keep doing this.” Then being given a lengthy essay that translates to gibberish and no specific basics on how to be better while dwelling in misery.

Whenever I see other VA announcements, I would ask, “was I ever given an email audition for this role?”
Checking my emails, I did. I didn’t audition because I was too busy and too tired to stand in my recording booth.
Now trying not to do anymore overtime.

How long I have to wait until every field of voiceover becomes accessible to remote recording 100% and not strictly limit to studio hubs? Within the next 10-30 years before I reach retirement age?

Wondering if my daytime shift change would be the cure-all to my voiceover struggles. In the first 2 weeks, I’ll need to adjust before I can do booth warm-ups.

While I’m waiting for my daytime shift, I should watch some anime dubs for inspiration and take notes. Thinking Deer Friend Nokatan with my mom.

It’s like being told, “You are a genius.” And you answered: 2 + 2 = Fish
