Webtoon Schedule Trial
Allow me to take a breath into the beautiful Monday morning air and gather all the right energy before continuing to write today’s post.
*inhale*
*exhale*
Ok, let’s continue 🙂
Hey there! Happy Monday!
So today I just want to share with you a little bit of my knowledge the process of making a Webtoon. But first you need to do this.
Planning your task. I need to follow a plan in order to do this. So I planned out what task I should do on each day in a week and allowed myself to take one day rest away from work so that I can be ‘human’ again. I have to follow this schedule because I don’t want to suffer from burnout because it happened last time I did my comic strip. I pushed myself to publish 2 comics in a week, but it had an impact on my body and my mental health. I remembered at that time I didn’t find enjoyment in drawing hence I discontinued making them and just deleted the whole comic from Webtoon.
This time, I want to do things properly. Although last week was a trial, I managed to release a new episode just in time for bedtime. New episode 4 read here.
This is my original schedule I had planned for the past two weeks.
But as I have gone through the work, I realized it wasn’t what I thought it’d be. I completely forgot that I had a second page to draw from episode 5. Episode 4 that already posted yesterday (you can read here) has been already in hand (I made one week in advance). I did this so that I won’t be too busy juggling between my Webtoon work and also do things in my real life (being a parent and a mom). Besides being busy doing this comic, I also have to clean, cook for the family and send my daughter to her therapy. And this is what it turned out; the realistic things happened last week.
Mon – Script/storyboard/proofread
Tue– sketch/typeset
Wed– sketch/lineart
Thu– lineart/flats
Fri– flats/shading
Sat– shading/background
Sun– shading/review/draft//fix typeset/schedule new episode/publish new episode
Last night was a bit of a mess. If I didn’t forget about the second page, fix all the typeset and fix the spacing between each panel that close together, I wouldn’t be so nervous and feeling a little bit panicky race against the time… but to my relief I managed to do it on time. Yipeee! 🙂 No more, I make the same mistakes. Huhu.
P/s: You can copy my original schedule as your guidance. And read my Webtoon comic and subscribe to it if you aren’t already. Thank you!

My Webtoon Series Is Out (Soft Opening)
Happy Monday lovelies!
I have published my romance/slice-of-life webtoon series today. I can’t believe I am finally doing this. I don’t know what will happen after this but I am determined to make this first series work. So lovelies I present to you my very first webtoon series Jagged Heart.
Sypnosis:
Daisy expresses her love for cosplay. While people think she is weird or just lively like her best friend, Lily, she is actually an introvert who always dreams of one day she could say out loud what her heart desires. One of her dreams is to become the most popular high school boy, Cole, who also happens to be Lily’s older brother.
However, things lead to another and she is caught in a whirlwind she could never imagine she’d explore.
I only posted 4 episodes so far including the epilogue. I put on hold episode 4 so that I won’t be rushing to finish episode 5 which is currently still in the sketching process.
Ideally, it is better to keep the series updated every week on the same day so that’s what I will do for the next coming week. I’ll post every Sunday around 9-11 pm EST. (It’ll be 3-5 am in Swiss time) So make sure you hop on to the webtoon to read it. Drop some comments and please give my work a like if you love it. It’s months and months of work so I need your support to make my desperate soul happy. Huhu.

Also, you can follow my new TikTok about my webtoon series here. Any new episodes or perhaps different stories will be also posted here.
Not a Multitasker but Here Are The Videos
Happy Tuesday lovelies!
I have been busy over the last few days, updating my vlog and producing another Etsy product for the summer season to the publishing process of my webtoon. The main reason is to sort everything out once and for all so that my brain is not cluttered. I came to realize being a stay-at-home mom and not working anymore thought my brain and body can cope with being a multitasker like I used to be when I was still working 8 years ago. I didn’t expect to have the same belief that I was capable of doing it and that I could handle things like a super-mom. I have so much respect for those who could raise children so dearly and do their jobs and housework at the same time. But in all seriousness, how do you handle things to perfection? Kindly share the recipe. I’m desperately in need of advice T.T
Excuse me for today’s vent. This is the me sharing with you guys a bit of my life stories and today as well, I share with you another throwback vlogs when we were in London 2018. If you like to watch them, remember to subscribe to the channel. Thank you 🙂
You Can Do This Instead
Summer has finally arrived and everyone is eager to get out and have some fun. Unfortunately, having a tight budget can put a damper on your summer plans. However, being broke does not mean you should miss out on all the excitement and adventures that summertime has to offer. Here are some of the best ways to enjoy yourself when you are broke and cannot travel.
You just explore what is around you. The chances are that there are several hidden gems around your locality that you have never experienced. Take a walk around your area and scout for small parks, nature trails, or even a small beach close by. You may be surprised at what you will find. When I am broke and want to have some fun with my kid, I take him to explore places we have never been to before. It could be a new park, an art gallery, or even a museum.
The last weekend, we visited a few of free attractions around the town close to where we live. There are several. But two caught my attentions. Thanks to the TikTok I’ve watched the other day. Me and my husband did research within 15 mins away from our house there’s a place where can view two rivers merging in Geneva and a small zoo close to that attraction. So I guess it is worth to visit the place without breaking the bank.
Confluence of Two Rivers
We viewed the breathtaking atractions from the Jonction bridge. It is the best view to witness this. Two different rivers (from Rhone and Arve rivers) joining together into one.
Before we came to the bridge, we discovered a new small playground with kids pool but it’s a little secluded yet I saw there were families bring their kids to the place although they haven’t open the pool for public yet. If it’s open next time I guess I can bring my daughter here and have some picnic. She can cool off in the water while me and husband pig out. Lol. It is a perfect way to beat the scorching summer heat. I haven’t planned the picnics yet. Perhaps when the summer holiday started then I can plan what the best day to do it. The perfect day is when there’s a little windy and not too hot.
Animal Park, De la Batie
Next stop was the Animal Park Bois-de-la-Batie, Geneva. You have to walk on the not-too-steep walkway to the top of the hill and walked past a restaurant, Cafe De la Tour, Petit-Lancy. You can take a short rest at the cafe but we didn’t stop there as my daughter urged us to continue our walk😅
The animal park was just beside the restaurant. I didn’t know where the entrance was but the back gate at that time can be entered by visitors. Since it was unguarded I guess we can simply enter the place as long as we close the gate after we enter.
An unkempt animal park which we can observe numerous species of animals, mostly birds and farm animals. I’m quite surprised that my daughter looked super excited and interested to pet the animals especially the tortoises and the goats there than our last visit to Basel Zoo last time. Luckily they didn’t bite her finger. Lol.
A nice kindergarten is provided as well in the park so it’s a nice spot to visit if you have kids who love animals.
