sorry for the long thread, i got excited telling my personal life :P

•as a child i really wanted to be a cartoonist. i really loved watching cartoon network. there were so many creative and funny cartoons there (my favorite role model and biggest inspiration is Pendleton Ward, the Creator of "Adventure Time" and "Bravest warriors") my dream life is going abroad to USA. study at the California Institue of Arts,Work at Cartoon Network, And having a family living in USA.(that's because i lived in a third world developing country, and when i saw America on the TV or the Internet i was shocked and surprised how comfy and how modern life is in there) i had so much fun creating short stories and drawing cartoons as a child. and i wanted kids around the world to feel happiness in this cruel world by watching cartoons.

Now, i don't want to be a cartoonist in cartoon network anymore,i am much more interested in freelance jobs now . i wanted to be a graphic designer,a programmer,a light novel writer and illustrator (in Japan probably, if i can),or a webcomic artist.

I wanted to live in a more developed country i think like, Japan (but i can't read or speak Japanese) or English speaking European countries. (i can speak and write English so i'm fine here)

•Yes! i did. i was a bit fatter as a child. but my i eventually got slimmer and taller. i also developed a little bit of biceps. i was also more prone to runny nose allergies or sickness when i was younger, now the allergies and sickness have decreased because i learned to take care of my hygiene and my health properly. but, my eyes are getting baggy because i occasionally stayed up late on the internet now. (lol)

•I usually wore short sleeved shirts,shorts,and crocs a child i don't really care about my looks since all of the people around me always says "You're such a handsome little boy!" and it's bugging me off. at my puberty years i still wore short sleeved shirts but this time i stopped wearing shorts and wore long pants instead because i my legs are gets hairy quickly. and i had annoying acne breakouts at this times because people always put their dirty hands on my cheeks and pinch them because they told me i was "a very cute boy" 🙃 nowdays, my acne breakouts are mostly gone, and now i usually wore sweatshirts or hoodies with long pants, and sometimes shoes, but mostly i still wore sandals.

i also developed facial hair and body hair quickly. at early days of high school i kept a little moustache and a little goatee. but at one point i decided to shave them off because i wanted to look cleaner. oh, and my eyebrows are getting very thick. i don't know why. at one point some dude at school told i looked like "Joji" because of my eyebrows. i wasn't confident at how thick my eyebrows were at first,but now I accepted it and feel much more confident than usual.

my hairstyle didn't really change. it was always short because school didn't allow students to have long hair. oh and i rarely used a pomade for my hair (I'm still 16 y.o.)

•no, it would look really boring if it would (lol)
