I’ll be shifting to fundraising with my art for the majority of 2026, but maybe I’ll do another pop up shop or a limited time online shop next year!!

✅ My first pop up shop selling my personal art!!

Mahalo nui to the amazing folks at Pōʻai & to all those who supported my art!! I’m still taken aback that so many people liked my art enough to want to own it.

If I’m ever out of debt and well-off, there will be signs. (I’ll buy a risograph duplicator for my personal use at home)

If I vent to my friends about it, it feels like I’m trying to guilt them for being better off.

In many ways, I’m glad my friends can’t relate. But in others, I feel so lonely because no one in my circles share this experience and I can’t stop wondering if it’s my fault I’m in so much debt. Maybe it is??

I don’t think I’m actively suicidal, but I do feel like the only way out of my debt is to die and that I will never be able to pay it all back no matter how hard I try.

Sometimes I feel really jealous of my friends whose families were able to help them financially and who weren’t in debt from the day they turned 18. I hate when I’m jealous of my friends for not struggling like I did, it makes me feel gross and ugly.

But realistically I don’t know how many meals I’d have to skip to pay off my $80k student debt and my much more reasonable, but still high credit card debt.

Sometimes I feel so frustrated about things outside my control that I just cry. Lately it’s just that I’m poor and I fall into the “maybe if I just stopped eating lunch or buying snacks once in a while, I wouldn’t be so broke.”

When I’m with other Pasifika, I’m just like WOW I’m so grateful to be Pasifika YIPPEE

being around other Pasifika truly is just such a good feeling 99% of the time. the 1% are because sometimes there’s pilau ass people since being Pasifika doesn’t automatically make you a good person lmao.

An illustration of Maple, the main character of Folk Remedy, reading a book with sparkles in her eyes. Behind her is the cover of Folk Remedy Book 1.

Hey! It’s September now! Did you know my book comes out this month? Strange but true! Pick up this fun yōkai adventure in time for spooky season.
