So I'm back, I guess. I don't really have anything much better to do over the break. So I've been drawing/painting a little bit. I'm kind of half planning a horror web comic with a certain friend of mine.

Also trying to get better at my art. So yeah. =_=

I'm back. Temporarily.

I still hate DA, but I'm involved in Nanowrimo this year, and I can't really think of a better system for uploading and sharing my story at the moment.

Feel free to read it. I'd really like some critique. It needs a good, long, hard draft edit, but for the moment I'm pleased with it.

So yeah, Mudkips, very funny.

I uploaded the buttons I made for Anime Boston and some art pieces I was working on finishing but have since abandoned due to "WHAT THE FUCK WAS I THINKING THESE ARE AWFUL!"

Those really awesome ones I mentioned a month ago when I turned 18? STILL WORKING ON THEM, but OH MAN ARE THEY EVER SEXY. I orgasm whenever I look at the lineart. It's just that I want to color them by hand, and I feel like I need to go slow or I'll ruin things.

I've picked out my courses for Fall semester, and I'm handing in my application for a local archaeological field school during the summer. (win!)

So I'm gonna start posting more on here soon. Have at you!

So I'm 18 as of 3 hours 36 minutes ago.

I have finished two drawings. They are actually very pretty and I'm very proud of them. I'll post them up as soon as I make some finishing touches and can figure out a way of scanning them nicely. Expect them sometime within the week. I'm not sure how I've gotten 1000 hits on here. I'm guessing this had alot to do with my trolling... errr... ..whoring the forums.

I know it sounds stupid to say my art's still coming, especially after all this time, but I'm just not like most of you folks on DA here anymore. I can't draw shitty sketch after shitty sketch and feel good about my artwork. Drawing doesn't come naturally to me anymore, sure, I'm good at doing it, but I don't have an overwhelming desire to draw anything for the sheer sake of drawing. I have to find a concept I really enjoy drawing, and then find the means to accomplish it to a point where I'm truly satisfied. The pictures I'm doing now, though they take ages, really make me feel accomplished, and good about myself at the end of the day.

So what else have I got to say in this massive, self-reflective blivot of a journal? Well, my classes this semester are awesome. Archaeology and Prehistory (Anthro 102) and Native American Cultural Survey (Anthro 275). They both kick ass. My teachers are awesome (even if the students aren't.) and the subject matter is pretty interesting. No more insane computer science courses this semester, so I'm relatively happy with things academically.

Oh, and I found my old Play Station 2, so for my birthday I just decided to buy up all the games I'd ever wanted for it for like, 5$. I'm still adding to the collection. It pays to take up oppurtunity with a discontinued console. Anyways, if anyone has suggestions for good games on the PS2, please feel free to reccomend them. I'll be collecting a number of them over the next few months methinks.

One last thing... Would anyone be kind enough to suggest some subject matter for drawing over the next few months? Trouble is, my character pieces are kind of full of meat logs, and I need atleast something to quell the disturbingly homoerotic direction my art is going. XD

Thanks all,
