Cute/cool flowers from yesterday's date! Hope you're all doing well
A passion flower! There are thick white petals on the bottom, very thin blue filaments above them, a purple center, and green filaments. Two pinkish whitish daisies!

i need to be postin' and repostin' more. it's been tough to even just be active in friend servers because my family + my grandma have all been moving (plus i got a new job), so i've been busy n' tired.
in the meantime, here's a coooool lobster my girlfriend and i saw at the aquarium!

Yesterday I did a lot of biking to turn in employment forms, had a wonderful beach date, and my Pikmin walked so very far. Good gravy are you kidding me
A blue and clear by-the-wind sailor Several flower bushes and one very large, spiky plant. A message from Pikmin Bloom congratulating me for taking 20,592 steps!

i wrote a pretty long list of things about myself in this one server and i thought it'd be fun to post it here. sometimes i kinda feel like a mystery or quiet in some places where i wanna talk more, so yeah, this is just a whole bunch of jem fun facts!
- playing violin is one of my main things! my favorite genres to play are irish fiddle, jazz, and eastern european folk music. i've played in a lot of different groups, and helped to start the orchestra class at my high school! - also yes i love composing music! admittedly..... i don't have a lot of *completed* songs i can show off, but i have lots of outlines and am always improvising. also, last spring, one of my pieces was played by my community college orchestra, which was the coolest thing ever! - i also really like singing and acting. like with violin, i've been in different school singing groups over the years, as well as several different plays & operas. - on a semi-related note, i haven't talked much in calls, but i do love being loud and boisterous around friends when i'm able to (also being physically wacky for in person bits) - i like writing poetry, oc stuff, and lore for dnd with friends (dnd is another thing i like doing but we're extremely relaxed on rules and make up our own stuff for everything) - for art, i really like doing sprite portraits, but also traditionally draw and paint. my girlfriend lilac and i go to this zine club frequently and it's made me want to start doing zines and also learn to weave or do crochet! - editing videos is something i really don't do much anymore, but it's always fun, since i love timing things properly and giving musicality to stuff. new MF DOOM bionicle amv about vakama coming sometime - i love being active in nature and learning about geographic processes. i bike very frequently and go on lots of walks / am starting to hike. i like to do volunteering like pulling invasive plants + replacing them with new ones, in addition to doing cleanups at local creeks/parks. also lilac knows tons of birds, so i'm trying to learn more plants, and then we can be an unstoppable identification force! - i love crystals and minerals! i love them! i have a cool collection of 'em and want to learn as much about them as possible. i also want to start growing them once i move! - my girlfriend lilac is so awesome/smart/pretty/funny, writes such amazing music, and makes such incredible art. we're always talking about sea creatures. she isn't too active online, but when she posts stuff, i'll be sure to share it! - just as one last fun fact: i can play violin, viola, cello, upright bass, piano, ukulele, clarinet, alto saxophone, flute, bassoon, and percussion. this school year i'll learn to play trumpet, trombone, horn, tuba, and guitar! when you're studying to be a music teacher, you need to know so many things lol!

Also, this is one of my main specific Undertale memories:
I finished the pacifist route as a fire had been going on a bit north of me. Reaching this moment at a time when I felt so powerless didn't make me feel like I could stop it all, but it did heavily resonate with me in a way I can't forget.
A picture of my computer screen showing the moment at the end of UNDERTALE's pacifist route when Asriel says "Don't kill, and don't be killed, alright?" The sun shines brightly through a very hazy sky. Tree branches frame it, as does a mountain.

I'm also majoring in music education, and have been feeling nervous about it due to the way culture in America seems to be shifting. However, these new chapters of Deltarune not only reassured me that there will always be good people, but it also showed me again how important a good teacher can be.
On the left, there is an icon of one of my oldest OCs, a blue crystal monster named Spyriax. On the right, text reads: "I'm majoring in music composition, and UNDERTALE is a huge reason why. I cherish how earnest it is, and I so deeply want to make something which can help people like how it has."

if you have no horses in this race, let me be the first to tell you I'm super excited for the new lego ideas set based on different minerals, and also here's a slightly old pic of my mineral collection irl!
A lego set containing the following representations of minerals (clockwise from topleft: Pyrite, Amethyst Geode, Emerald, Black Tourmaline with Aquamarine, Rhodochrosite, and Orange Quartz. Jem's mineral collection circa 2021. There is a three tiered lazy susan with various mineral types and fake candles in the center of each tier. Around the lazy susan are a set of larger minerals and fossils.

here's something else! this is a series of pixel art portraits I did from 2020-2021. each character is from the first dnd campaign I was ever in (my character, maple, is the tree lady)! I didn't have a lot of pixel art experience before this, so it was great to build skillz over that time
A collection of pixel art portraits of DnD characters. Clockwise from top: an armadillo guy with a scar over his eye, a lizard cowboy, an amphibian with ornate robes, a tree person with leaves for hair, a bird person with an arrow in their hair, an amphibian cleric with a lily on their head, a bird person with glasses, a yeti person with pink sunglasses. In the center is a three eyed demon with background colors pertaining to each of the other characters' backgrounds.

hello! I decided to finally get an account and start posting my art and music if it allows for that! I've been nervous to on The Other Site but everyone I know who's on here does cool stuff and I wanna be one of the people who does cool stuff.
here's a painting I did last year to start!
five trees with dark blue trunks, bright blue veins, and leaves in warm colors stand in a field. the largest tree covers the rest, and appears to have wings made of clouds. the sky and clouds behind them are green.
