Yes, I have recently completed my very first year of community college...could've been worse, could've gone a lot better than it did. ^^;

For the moment, at least, I have found all the reprieve I have ever dreamed of to begin picking up where I left off with some of my personal projects. Yeah, remember that Star Fox fan fiction project I may have mentioned once or twice a while back? Been working on some meta for that. Like, working like crazy. So far I am absolutely loving what is coming out, and I have hopes that for once I'll actually finish a multi-chapter fan fiction. To help me prepare for this, I'm probably going to start sketching some composite character sketches to help the thinking process along. Yes, this means that within the next week or so you people are going to be seeing more of that "monkey art" I said I'd stop doing so much. Yes, I'm a hypocrite. Shut up.

Aside from that, I also need to accomplish three other major goals:

1) Sketch up the official art for Masaki-no-kitsune's comic project.

2) Finally finish my half of the art trade I promise TinyPsyker ages and ages ago.  

3) Get. That. Fucking. Driver's. License.

And yes, I also need to get caught back up with ALL OF MY WONDERFUL FRIENDS HERE ON DEVIANTART. I'm afraid I've once again let all the updates get away from me...I have so much shit to go through. I guess I better get to work...

Toodles!

I think it's time for an update, especially since I've barely been on the past month or so.

Art School is taking up a huge amount of my time. I'm actually having some trouble keeping my grades at an acceptable average. The past few weeks have certainly made me realize that my true strengths are in computer art and cartooning, though through no fault of my professors. After all the only thing I did for years as a kid was animesque shit, all OVER my notebooks and whatnot. Still, I am learning tons of things about my abilities in traditional art, and I've expanded the possibilities I think. My official Major is still in "Graphic Design", so in the long run my patience will hopefully pay off.

Then again, with the way the economy is headed I'm also a little worried about hypothetical job prospects down the line. I'm crossing my fingers in hopes that the recession will start to upturn by the time I graduate college, but I can't bank on that. Both of my parents think I should shift my focus on art into a more practical vein; my dad thinks I should go into CAD CAM Design, and my mom thinks I should become an Art Therapist of some sort. She also said becoming an Art Teacher would also be a good option, which I chuckled at because that was what my stepmom used to say when we were still talking.

I'm really not sure about anything at this point, but I don't think I'll have to make any major decisions until I graduate from MCC next year. Their School of Art & Design program will result in an eventual AA Degree that will transfer directly into various colleges that MCC has good correspondence with. Including Towson which, by the way, was my original first choice in colleges until I was convinced MCC would be a better move as a first-time college student.

On a more personal note, I should probably officially state now that I am indeed working with Masaki-no-kitsune on a webcomic project tentatively known as GALA Chronicle. He and I have been going back and forth over it's concept for almost three months now. We've had some serious discussions about plot and set up, and I think we are nearing an optimal pitch that we are both satisfied with.

...Because, you see, even though I am merely to be the "official" artist my exceedingly high standards in plot construction have been known throw monkey wrenches in at inopportune times. But that's okay because I often end up just buying him milkshakes in order to pacify his irritability and get away with shit. It's quite a beneficial relationship in this sense, as he otherwise wouldn't have the money to buy so many milkshakes for himself.

I have nothing ready yet, but keep an eye open for some full-color character designs from me. I've been a little slack in keeping up with it, but I intend to catch up as soon as it is convenient.    

...Wait, what's that you ask? Something about a Star Fox fan fic project I was working on? Well, yes, I'm still working on that too. I'm also working on some other pieces of fan art, and an Art Trade as well. And also I may or may not be discussing doing a general retro-video games Podcast project with Andrew-McCloud and Basil-Ovelby.

Hmmm. My schedule seems to be plotting against me.

Ah, well.

Yeeeaaaah...I kind of put off updating about this but GUESS WHAT EVERYONE? I'M OUT OF MY STEPMOM'S HOUSE. WOOOOOHOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

:icondelightfulplz: :iconiloveyouplz: :iconcarameldansenplz: :iconholdheartplz: :iconoriginallarryplz:

The new place I'm staying at is FUCKING AWESOME. I'm now in Vienna, Virginia, and am traveling by MetroRail to get to college, which only adds a mere extra half hour to my travel time. Other than that NO DRAWBACKS. The people I'm living with, my second cousin and his wife, are SUPER EXTRA AWESOME AND NICE. Joe, who is my mom's cousin FYI, likes to cook and LIKES TO MAKE ME BREAKFAST. I'M NOT TALKING CEREAL EITHER. BACON AND EGGS, BITCH. :iconxd--plz:

Aside from all that, I am now also back in the state of my BIRTH (which only just hit me today as I was waiting for the bus) and everything is as wonderful as can be. The only thing I have to be careful of is I have to watch how much time I waste surfing the internet; I have a tendency to put homework off in favor of the miscellaneous, and without my dad there to keep me on my toes I gotta be careful now (BTW, I MISS MY DAD; WAAAAAHH!!! :iconcryingplz:).

I could only take so much stuff with me when I moved out tho; most of my comic books and art books are at my stepmom's house, which makes me sad (though since her house is still within bus-riding-distance I could probably phone my dad ahead of time on various days and ask which days he'd be home so I could slip in and grab some of my stuffs before anyone else gets home). I also had to leave Grandma's print behind too, but I suspect I'll get it back in due time.

Before I moved out, my stepmom decided to give one last stern talking to as well. She said a lot of things that made me really upset and angry, things which will take me a while to even reconcile before I start to forgive. Despite that I actually do hope we sort of...I don't know, make up someday. Or, if not make up, then maybe learn to be civil so I can hang out with my dad and my stepsisters again (although...in retrospect of the complete entirety of our relationship, both the good the times and the bad, I've come to conclusion that she's kind of crazy, so who knows :XD:).

One last thing. Spring break is starting for me soon, and I'm going back up to Pennsylvania to chillax with my mom and my boyfriend for a few days. My mom has recently purchased a Wii (:iconforgivemeplz: :icongoofygrinplz:) and I have thus far spent the past couple weekends kicking ass in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. If any of you have a Wii, an internet connection, and a copy of SSBB (or can obtain a copy), message me with your friend codes. I don't have my own friend code in front of me right now, but when I arrive home by saturday I will be sure to message all of you back with my own code so that we can all have awesome BRAWL parties of awesomeness. IT'LL BE SO AWESOME.

Anyway...I promise to get caught back up with everyone else's journals and deviations now. There's no more drama here that you guys have to worry yourselves over anymore. But, I did want let you guys know that your love and support over the last couple of weeks and months has meant the world to me. I can not thank all of you enough. Especial love and thanks goes out to tHaTChesHiREGRiN, ClaudiaCasanova, Basil-Ovelby, Andrew-McCloud, kerisugi, alexth, Mistress-Blood, jetsamjunk, hanna-Aris, and simika. You guys were the best, ever. :heart:

BTW, EVERYONE GO CHECK OUT THIS AWESOME DEVIATION JETSAMJUNK DID FOR ME: CLICK IT NOW.

Other than that...

PS: THE REFRIGERATOR HERE HAS AN ELECTRONIC, AUTOMATIC ICE DISPENSER. NO MORE REACHING WAY BACK INTO THE FREAKING FREEZER JUST FOR A FEW MEASLY CUBES OF ICE. I LOVE THIS PLACE. I WISH I COULD STAY HERE FOREVER AND EVER.

That's all, I swear. Ciao. :heart:

Hey there guys. A lot of things have been going on lately, and I haven't even been able to update with GOOD NEWS as much as I like because of how tense and apprehensive I've been feeling lately. Nothing End-Of-The-World major bad is going on, just a lot of family issues and a shitty home life.

The thing is, I'm actually going to be moving out of my dad's house. As soon as I locate an alternative place of residence (an apartment with the rent split between a couple of roommates or my friend's couch, I don't care). Yes, things have gotten that bad between my stepmom and I. I can't say I'm completely guiltless in the entire ordeal, but really there isn't any part of me that can reconcile living with someone who gets overly huffy and irritated when I bring home DELICIOUSLY GLORIOUS Diet Dr. Pepper because apparantly there was already a whole box of the stuff in the closet. I mean, my bad because I'd forgotten about that, but no one at my real mom's house likes Dr. Pepper. I thought it made sense to bring it home with me. What's so bad about that?

Anyway, that's just one minor thing out of about a billion things I Do Not Want To Talk About Ever, so we'll just leave it at that. She and I don't get along at all. So, I'll move out. End of story.

One of the good things that I'd wanted to mention WEEKS ago but put off mentioning was that my grandmother bequethed a framed, beautifully crafted print of a Japanese styled phoenix, each red or gold feather a disjointed graceful stroke. This used to hang on her stairway to the basement in her house, and I had previously commented how beautiful I thought it was. I honestly had not been expecting to have it given to me, at least not for several years.

So I just need to say that I really love my grandmother. No, I SUPER love her. I can say with absolute dead certainty that she is the closest thing to a positive female role model in my life; always has been, and always will.

Le sigh. Outside of all that, I am very much aware that deviations, journals, the comments, and the replies are all piling up in my inbox. Unfortunately, I've been very distracted lately. Guys, I will try my hardest to get to these before next weekend (or at least by next weekend). Until then, though, just all of you hang tight.

Ciao.

KITTY

2 min read
k,m+=[*,l;/

That's what my new little kitty has to say to you (he likes climbing all over my keyboard, and thinks my mou-=seuy7=r23[p MOUSE is an appropriate chew toy).

I'm sorry guys, I just couldn't resist. He's against me browsing the internet apparently, but then I got the brilliant idea to make a journal entry about it, with a little input from him. Because he's so cute you know. Doesn't matter if his grammar and spelling's off, because he's just cool like that.

:heart:
