So, some of you will notice that my gallery is looking...well, rather empty. That's because I wasn't really impressed with a lot of stuff in there. Sorry if there was something in there that you liked, but, to be honest, a lot of that stuff is just drudging down my gallery. Hopefully I'll upload some new stuff soon though.

Also, I'm debating on whether I want to make a second account for just my traditional art pieces. They just feel really out of place in this account. Any comments?

College Bound

3 min read
So I'm getting ready to move out for college again. I'm both excited and stressed by this. Excited cause it will be awesome to be out on my own again, and to have free range of the art studio *insert holy music here*, but I'm stressed because of packing and making sure I have everything ready to go. It'll all be worth it though :). This is also just kind of a heads up that I won't have a lot of access to DA when I move out. My apartment complex has it banned on their WiFi so I'll have to access it from the school's library. I know you don't hear a lot from me in the first place, but I figured I'd clue you in just in case.

1.The phone rings. Are you quick to answer or do you ignore it?:

Hmmm, depends on whose calling, and what I believe could hypothetically transpire with my answering of this call.

2. When shopping at the grocery store, do you return your cart to the appropriate place or just randomly leave it in the parking lot?:

During the day, yes I return it. At night, not so much. At that point I'm tired and don't care.

3. In a social setting, are you more of a talker or a listener?:

Depends on the personalities of the people in the group and how they speak. If they are more quiet and reserved, I tend to steal the show because I feel the need for more exciting repoirte. If they're a dramatic, well emphasised speaker, then I tend to listen more.

4. Do you take compliments well?:

I...can be a little bit arrogant sometimes when accepting a compliment. I often see it as me just being confident but it often gets mistaken as me being full of myself. I don't mean to. It just happens.

5. Are you an active person?:

Yeah, right! Aren't you the funny one.

6. If abandoned alone in the wilderness, would you survive?:

For a day or two. Yes. Longer than that. There's no way.

7. Do you like to ride horses?:

I would if I wasn't allergic to them.

8. Did you ever go to camp as a kid?:

Every summer. :)

9. What was your favorite game as a kid?:

Wall Ball, until you lost the ball up ontop of the roof and the janitors refused to go get it for you.

10. If a sexy person was pursuing you, but you knew he/she was married, would you get involved with him/her?:

No. If they're not committed to the person they're with currently, how could they ever be committed to me in the future. I value loyalty more than looks.

11. Are you judgmental?:

Not to an extreme, but yeah, sometimes I leap before I look.

12. Could you date someone with different religious beliefs than you?

Surprisingly, yeah, I think I could. I'm not especially religious even though I was raised LDS. I try to be very open minded and so I think it would be fine with me if my significant other had different beliefs than I do, just as long as they didn't try to force their beliefs onto me.

13. Do you like to pursue or be pursued?:

As bad as this sounds, I tend to switch on and off. I start off being the pursued, gauge just how interested they are in me, then I start to pursue back. X3

14. Use three words to describe yourself:

Creative. Independent. Intuitive.

15. If you had to choose, would you rather be deaf or blind?:

How about dead? Cause at that point, that's what I'd want to be anyway.

16. Are you sexy?

...there really is no right answer to this is there? XD I'd either come across as having self-esteem problems, modest beyond all reason, or petty and selfish.

17. Do you know how to shoot a gun?:

Nope. I detest guns.

18. If your house was on fire, what would be the first thing you tried to save (assuming all pets and people are safely out)?:

Purse. It would have my phone so I could call for help and let family members know we're okay, Money to pay for necessities, and tissues cause lord knows I'm gonna need alot of those as I watch my house burn down in front of me. :(

19. How often do you read books?:

Comic Books. All the time. Actual literature. I think I read a book eight months ago. Emphasis on 'Think'. XD

20. Do you think more about the past, present or future?:

Present. Past is too painful. Future too unsure.

Max the Taxi Dog

The 'U' of 'tah'

Nope

A LOOOONG time. I love long warm showers.

36. Can you do splits?:

If I wanted to break my legs, then yeah.

Iron Man 2. I know I've seen like three times already, but it was REALLY good.

WTF?! No

...You know...I actually can't remember. XD

40. Do you think The Grudge was scary?

Never seen it. I can't stand scary movies.

41. What was the cause of your last accident?:

I tore up my heel on a sandstone rock that was hidden in some murky water. I was trying to keep our boat from running up onto a rocky shore and scratching the crap out of the bottom of it and got pushed back and had to step back to catch myself. The rock just happened to be where my foot needed to go.

42. Do you own a camera phone?:

Yep

44. Was your mom a cheerleader?

Drill Team. Close enough.

45. What's the last letter of your middle name?:

Y

46. Who did you vote for on American Idol?:

Please, that show is so overrated. America's Got Talent, now there's a good talent search show. :)

47. How many hours of sleep do you get a night?:

8 to 10. I love sleep.

48. Do you like Care Bears?:
I have giant stuffed funshine bear sitting in my closet. Does that answer your question?

49. What do you buy at the movies?:

Reese's Pieces. Never popcorn. My family has ruined popcorn for me. "Execuse me would you like some popcorn over that vast ocean of butter and salt?" BLECH!

50. Do you know how to play poker?:

No actually, but I'd love to learn.

Spiders in the backyard. True story. XD

Vibrate, only because I forget to turn the ringer back on.

66. Are you a gullible person?:

Depends on how good a liar you are.

67. Do you need a boyfriend/girlfriend to be happy?:

Relationships are like cake in my opinion. The basic spongey cake is you just cruising through life on your own. The frosting is your friends and family, and a relationship is like the frosting flowers, fun little designs, and sprinkles. You could just eat the cake on its own, but all the extra stuff does make it a lot more appealing to eat. ^-^

68. If you could have any job (assume you have the skills) what would it be?:

Concept artist, without a doubt. I'm a design nut for sure.

69. Are you easy to get along with?:

I would like to think I am, but I know there is people out there who just won't click with me and vice versa.

Someone recently commented on one of my old fan character designs and asked if I had a fan fic going for her. Now this isn't the first time someone has asked me about fan fics with my characters. I have so many FC's it's only natural to think that I'd have a storyline for atleast a few of them. But here's the thing:

1) Most of the fan characters I have designed were conceived when I was in Jr. High and back when I had absolutely no sense of 'character flaws' or 'character growth'. I cringe every time I read over their profiles I wrote in the artists comments. I literally have been tempted more times than I can count to just plain tear'em apart and start all over, current design an all. If I had started writing a fan fic for them, it would have been riddled with 'Mary-Sue-ness'.

And 2) I'm really not much of a writer, I CAN write, but I'm not fabulous at it. I would do no justice to the actual characters and storylines of those fandoms with my silly little typings. It's as simple as that.

It pretty much all widdles down to when I design a character, it's because I love the style and design possibilities of whatever it is I'm into and want to try my hand at it. I know that seems a little weird that I would go through and spend so much time on designing a character and then not put a story with them, but major fore-thought has never been a strong suit of mine either. I am working on some major storylines for some of my own characters but they probably won't be mentioned on here for a really long time. Till next time Peeps! :)

So I figured I'd freak you all out and actually post a journal (Something I haven't done in oh...say a year now?) But whatever. I would say I'm alive and well but that would be a lie. I'm currently in a state of absolute dread with a side of insomnia and a hint of grief....
.......
..........
......
...........
.......(Takes deep Breath)
I get my wisdom teeth out tomorrow......
AND YES I know that it's something that most everybody has to go through and that it should be NO big deal, and yes I know that I will be so strung out on Valium and Laughing Gas that it would make druggies jealous but none of that seems to calm my mind at all...
See the thing is, the most severe bodily damage I've gone through was a few concussions, ONE OF WHICH was a false alarm and just turned into a big goose egg. I've never had surgery, never broken a bone, never been put under, or been perscribed really powerful meds like this in my entire life. So I have no freaking idea how I'll react to them and I'm completely freaked out that I'll still be able to feel what's going on and I'm stressed out cause I know I'll be hurting and I won't even get to eat what I want....
....
......

......
....
STUPID TEETH AND ALL YOUR FREAKING STUPID DRAMA OF HAVING TO POP UP LIKE FREAKING DANDILIONS IN MY MOUTH WHEN NO ONE FREAKING WANTS YOU THERE!!! UGH!!!

Okay, enough drama. I do have some things I'm working on and hopefully I'll get them to a point where I'll want to post them up here. So hang in there guys, and thanks for being there for me. I'm a horrible person to watch I know. ^^; I still really appreciate you.
Till next time! :)
