Hello, everybody. Antoni here with another written entry. In these trying times of the Coronavirus being more widespread than ever, I say that it is more than imperative to support the ones we hold dearly in our hearts. As I am about to approach my second year of being on DeviantArt, I have been encountering a lot of brilliant, generous, genuine, and passionate minds. Some of them ended up being my most loyal followers and very great friends. Among them is none other than Daniel D. Roberts aka JekyllAndHydeChannel. Daniel has always been one of my most supportive fans and friends of all time and I have been super thankful for the gifts he has been giving me so far. Moreover, his art and his opinions are really unique and interesting, though the former category is on the crudely-drawn side. Nevertheless, he is a decent gentleman altogether. Daniel’s Etsy shop contains a fine amount of knick-knacks, gift cards, and small plushies you might endeavor to check out, which are perfect for any occasion. If you endeavor to have interest in checking his stuff out, please click the link below. https://www.etsy.com/shop/acmegiftshop Until then, stay safe, take care of yourselves, and take care of each other.

The love from one of my most loyal fans and wonderful friends of all time just keeps on coming and coming. I just received this lovely Bloo 2D-figurine in the mail today. Even though Bloo is not one of my most favorite Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends characters mostly because of how grating his jerkass personality can be in the later season and how polarizing of a friend he can be towards Mac, I could still find him entertaining. Moreover, this recent gift is a really lovely gesture from Daniel D. Roberts aka JekyllAndHydeChannel. So, Daniel, thank you so much for your continuous support and I wish you a lot of abundance, prosperity and joy in all of your endeavors. If you want to be like Daniel and send me a gift or two, please do not hesitate to leave me a personal message. Thank you very much.
Happy Holidays to all of my fans, friends, and followers. Antoni here with another written entry. One of my most loyal friends, fans, and watchers Daniel D. Roberts aka JekyllAndHydeChannel has done something really wonderful in this holiday season. Once again, he has given me some really cute and lovely gifts, and I am very thankful for him. I am also grateful for the continuous support he has been giving me during my tenure on DeviantArt, for being an absolutely awesome person to talk to, and for being quite a loving soul. So, Daniel, I too wish you the happiest of holidays, and please continue to stay as awesome as you are, man.
Well, look what I got in the mail just a couple of days ago. My very dear friend, DeviantArt follower, and fan of my artwork, Daniel D. Roberts aka JekyllAndHydeChannel, has sent me another set of lovely gifts. I know these were intended to be open on Valentine’s Day, but because of my academic priorities and my insane schedule both on- and offline, I saw it fit to open them up and I was really blessed. Daniel gave me a really cute bronze shark with his initials and a Dash from Pixar’s “The Incredibles” tattoo, which was a wonderful gesture from his side. So, Daniel, thanks so much for not only these lovely presents but also for your undying support, unconditional kindness, and passion when it comes to your favorite cartoons. Continue to be as great as you are and I also thank you for being one of my 99 DeviantArt watchers. Don’t forget to also stay tuned tomorrow for my final Butchubbles fan art submission, which is part of my sister from another mother’s, BrickercupMasterX3’s, annual Butchubbles Month. Blessed be and I will see you on the flipside.
I know I have not been completely active on DeviantArt as of late, as I have some pending Brickercup and Blossoomer Next-Gen Month submissions that I really have to take care of. Moreover, it is not really that easy to juggle my stint as an online reviewer, an artist who specializes in mainly Rowdyruff x Powerpuff fanart, thus making them join forces in my headcanon as Team Xtreme, and a student who has his eyes on specializing in Linguistics, Literature, and the Arts in university, given the fact that it is the Red Ribbon Reviewers Month in observation of AIDS Awareness. However, I just want to spend this moment to thank a fine fellow artist, a staunch supporter, and a wonderful friend of mine named Daniel Roberts aka JekyllAndHydeChannel for not only the lovely Christmas gifts he gave to me but for everything he is as a friend and a fan of my fanart and works in general. Now, I am fully aware that there were instructions that I should not open this until Christmas, but there were a few reasons why I had to take immediate action. One is the fact that I will be spending my Christmas break in the Philippines and Hong Kong with my family. It has been five years since I last set foot in Cebu the place where I spent the majority of my life and I firmly believe it is ample time to see my paternal grandmother once again after all of those years. So, waiting until Christmas to open the present was completely out of the question. Two is just plain curiosity. I sort of knew in the back of my mind that the gifts were going to be animation related and my guess was right. So, Daniel, I know I ended up opening these gifts before Christmas but with all of the things that are happening in my life right now, especially my upcoming trip to Cebu and Hong Kong, could you blame me for opening these ahead of time? Still, I want to thank you so much for being so thoughtful and kind and I am eternally grateful for everything you are and all that you have done so far. Going to gifts I have to say that these are really adorable. The blue samurai action figure seems pretty familiar to me but my memory of this particular is really fuzzy. The Cleo stuffed toy is simply put really lovely, as she is one of my favorite Disney animal characters and I am pretty sure she could be useful for stress relief, especially since my A-Level exams are underway. In terms of my experience with the animated show “Braceface”, it is an okay show. Is it better than let’s say “As Told by Ginger” or “Kim Possible”? Not by a long shot, but it is enjoyable on some occasions. I caught snippets of this show when I was tuning into the Disney Channel in Hawaii with my parents as a thirteen-year-old boy, but it never really grew on me too much in spite of its quirky charm. Finally, the little note Daniel wrote was really kind and encouraging in its own special way and I will always cherish it. So, there you have it, my gifts from a very fine person who has always been supportive during my time on DeviantArt. And Daniel, I also wish you a very blessed, happy, and wonderful Christmas and a fulfilling New Year. Thank you for your support, your openness, and your passion. Keep on being a unique and brilliant young man, may you spend your holidays with joy and delight, and I wish you, your family, and friends a lot of love, euphoria, and peace in this holiday season. Take care, my friend.
