Helloooo, anybody and everybody!!
It has been a reaaaaaally long time since I've been here, unfortunately! :o

But here I am for now at least! It's such a shame that I haven't been here, haven't seen what you've all been up to over these last months... My inbox is so full of deviations that you've all been submitting, I wish I could have done the same :p
Someday soon I hope to submit SOMEthing...!!

This is short but sweet, I hope you've all been well and enjoying your 2013 :D
I hope to drop in on you all more often, like I used to...!

My first journal entry in quite a while. And here's all I have to say! :D


If you comment I'll tell you...

1. What animal/creature you remind me of.

2. What color I think fits you.

3. How I feel about you.

4. Insult you

5. My favorite OC of yours.

6. What season you remind me of.

7. Tell you what food you smell like in my head

8. A song you remind me of.

9. Think of a random nickname for you.

10. What element you remind me of.

11. I'll order you to put this in your journal without using the words 'tag' or 'dare'

Hey there everybody :)

As I'm sure you all know, I'm not much of an active deviant here on devART. It's pre-tty rare that I submit any artworks, let alone any journal entries like this. And I don't know how many times I've written journals only to say "I'm going to do this-and-this-and-this..." only to barely scratch the surface of what I tried to deliver...

...sadly, this MAY be one of those...

I wasn't going to write anything, knowing it would just be another of my infamous lists of plans not to be realised. BUT I thought, I may as well. After all, this is the wrong attitude to have. It's a new year after all (by the way, happy 2012 to all of you!), let's start fresh.

Speaking of the new year, I'm wanting to draw something to commemorate it, and may be my toughest drawing challenge yet. I won't say why, you'll have to wait until I submit it :p So... what's news? I've been on holidays from uni for a bit over a month. At first I was trying hard not to get bored, but now I seem to be doing fine with that. Mostly practicing guitar, really (SHAMELESS PLUG: here's the link to my guitar cover of L'Arc~en~Ciel's LOST HEAVEN, if anybody's interested - www.youtube.com/watch?v=A8E9xW… )
Speaking of L'Arc, I so very much wish I could be going to New York to see them perform at Madison Square Garden on 25th March, I even have an internet friend there I could meet for the first time, but it's probably too expensive and more so, my uni semester starts by then... :/ But it will happen one day!! I'm waiting on a CD of theirs to arrive by mail, meanwhile.

FLASHBACK: Christmas was the usual drill, having my dad's family over for Christmas Day then spending the next day (it's come to my attention that 26th December isn't known as Boxing Day elsewhere in the world, I dunno why we call it that) with my mum's family. Not too bad. Then a nice peaceful New Year's eve with friends at home, losing my soul in Mortal Kombat only to reclaim it on condition that I become Sense-of-Doubt's butler... long story :p (If you've seen Seinfeld, it'll make sense)
More recently I've worked a lot at the cricket ground here, this week especially. Though I just saw comments on the shift rostering website we use, I didn't like seeing stuff like "late for shift" in there. Not that it isn't true (I'm not a morning person so I take too long getting ready), but I feel like a kid getting a detention at school or something :( But anyways... oh, plus Christmas foodstuffs seem to have taken their toll (bah scumbug), I'm technically overweight, grrr. It's not by much but still, I thought I'd never end up THERE again :/ Time to exercise properly again...!

Now let's get onto the art-related stuff, because that's what matters here, right? As one of my last journal entries will point out, I have a second manga/story idea in the works, and that's still true. A few months ago my phone died along with many pieces of info about it, but while I salvaged what I could in its dying days, I've retrieved (most of) the rest from memory. Shouldn't rely too much on technology... :)
As for my regular manga idea, I really really want to dive back into it now that I'm regurgitating ideas for it, it's been a long time. So I want to use the aforementioned New Year drawing idea as a warmup. The real question is WHEN WHEN WHEN am I gonna do stuff in COLOUR??? I've got a perfectly good pen tablet in my cupboard, I'm just too chicken to take it out and give it a proper try since I suck at Photoshop. But I must start somewhere. So if, no, WHEN I submit the drawing, I want to then rework it into colour. You guys deserve some colour, dangit! After all, what colour is Raina's hair? What colour are Sharde's (formerly Sill) eyes?? And WHAT colour is Belerus' skin??? Only I know the answers to these, for now :p

Well then! I think I've strained your eyes long enough :p Thank you to anyone reading this, I hope you're all well and being far more creative than me. Can I borrow your creative vibes, just for a bit...? I'll give 'em back, I promise! Maybe not in mint condition though.

So, here I am lazing around at home and I realised - I never actually said that I was on holidays already :p My exam results were... acceptable, though I BARELY scraped by in psychology (my mortal enemy...). These close calls should really be wake up calls instead...

I've been on holidays for a couple of weeks at least, with a bit over one week left to go. It's been good though, lots of R 'n' R, guitar practicing and stuff... BUT I've yet to pick up a pencil again. On the bright side, my mind is in creative mode, so I've come up with lots of ideas for my two story ideas (my phone's full of them), and one of these days I really want to start drawing this manga I've been going on about for ages. It's gotta happen sooner or later, right...??

So yeah, just a tiny update there. Hope all is well with everybody! :D

(this is the THIRD time I've had to write this, stupid internet window froze on me...)

Hi everyone! I hope you're all well. I'm not bad on my end, as my last journal entry said, I'm nearly at the end of another exam period. By 11;30 on Friday morning, I will be as free as a free me. Which is pretty damn free. And that will be a sweet victory, it's always a great feeling walking away from exams (regardless of how they might have gone), pure ecstasy. Butttt that's still a bit under two days away, but still not long to go. *sigh* And after that, I hope to get back into art mode. No, I WILL!! It's been too long since I really got my hands dirty.

In other news... not much else to tell really, apart from me getting braces a second time a few weeks back. Why a second time? The first time around I didn't wear the retainers when I should've (I couldn't sleep...!) so now I'm paying the price by reliving it for about a year. On the bright side, they're not as awkward as before, in fact the top ones are nearly invisible. No stupid rubber bands to put on either.

So, something a bit different this journal: I haven't done this before but I'm featuring some deviations of 18 hand-picked (well I used my mouse but you get the idea, maybe I should say hand-clicked?) deviantART artists out there, as part of an initiative begun by :iconvampirblood: . So for your viewing pleasure, I present, LIVE for one night only (not really) - talented artists and three of their deviations! Enjoy :D
