Birthday Wishes

1 min read
Thank you all for them ^^ I don't really have much to report on my birthday goings ons. I did give free art to a few people during a stream yesterday, that was fun ^^ I'll probably post the results later, they were adorable and funny :3 But yeah. Nothing special on my birthday. No cake (didn't want one), no party, but one present: a back scrubber for mah showah! I've always wanted one cause I'm horribly non-flexible. But yeah, it was a nice birthday :D

Alright, yesterday was kind of my big "wooo i'm back" post. Today I'll fill you guys in on the goes on that's been goins on since I left. A lot has changed so I'll try to keep it short and sweet.

Last year I graduated from college with my Associate's degree in Web Graphic Design. Well...I didn't really "graduate", I sort of just finished the course. I couldn't afford the cap and gown and the trip to the graduation ceremony. I attempted to go on to my Bachelor's degree in Multimedia Design and Development, but I was tired of the school mentality and tired of the standards being set for me and I honestly didn't care after a while. I failed multiple classes in a row and eventually just gave up and stopped scheduling registration appointments. After a while they stopped attempting to contact me for classes and disenrolled me from the school (found this out when I could no longer log in to my student profile). Another reason I had to stop attending was because I couldn't afford the classes anymore (partially my fault, when you fail a class it costs you more). If you recall, I was getting money from my dad's veteran benefits, but unfortunately I wasn't getting enough to pay. So, I just stopped going and tried looking for a way into the adult world. That way being a job.

After school had ended for me, I tried really hard to find a job. I applied at multiple places and called back numerous times, but no one seemed to want to hire an inexperienced college student with no skills valuable to them (can't imagine why :roll:). I was losing hope and I was losing it fast, I thought there would be no way for me to get a job unless I went to LA and waved my degree in people's faces. Drawing for a living was out of the question, at least for the time being, and I had no other form of income since the VA stopped sending me money for ceasing my attendance to school. During this entire job search, one place was always last on my list and my last resort and I avoided applying there for the longest time despite it being my best bet of getting a job. I eventually buckled and figured "fuck it, a job is a job at this point", and applied for the last resort. Sure enough, I got a call for an interview some 3 weeks later, and I was hopeful I'd get it. Forward 2 more weeks, no word back. Forward another week, nothing. I started to think if I couldn't get a job here, then maybe I'm just not hireable. Maybe I won't be able to get a job and I'll just be a unemployed parasite to my parents. That was until I got another call for a second interview. The optimism came back and I was excited since a second interview means they're actually interested (right?). Come to my fucking surprise, it wasn't a second interview, but a first interview for a different store. One right across the street. Skipped across the street and into the interview. Cut to today and I'm loving this new job. Even after 5 months I haven't gotten tired of it (my dad was so sure after 3 weeks I'd want to quit). Everyone is awesome, I've made some wonderful new friends, and I just love it :heart:

As for art, I never stopped drawing. I just haven't drawn things that I could post. Like I said yesterday, my art took a turn in another direction. That direction being generally 18+ and therefore unfit for dA (mostly). My recent picture I posted is proof I hadn't stopped drawing and was just improving. This ties into what's gonna be going on here. I'll be posting the SFW and the more R-rated pictures here but I'll also be posting previews of pictures that can't be shown here. I won't be linking anyone to the actual post (unless they privately ask me and I trust them), so it'll be up to you to search for it yourself. I don't want to be one to pander to the youngins, but if the youngins go out searching, I'm no longer held responsible. In addition, any and all requests, art trades, and collabs will be closed, and commissions will be on an ask basis, meaning simply ask if I'm accepting commissions. There maybe commission streams, but I'll go into detail with those later.

Either way, it's good to be back and I hope this'll be a new start for me ^^

dA sure has changed since I last logged in...

Uh...

I'm not sure what to do now?...

...

Hi everyone :D

I kinda disappeared off the face of the earth for a good year or so. I don't really have an excuse why cause I honestly forgot why I did. If anything it was probably the usual "I'm bored of this site I need a break" that I tend to feel, but either way..

I miss my buddies ;w; And I sorta miss posting art up here, but well...let's just say my art took a different turn.

But since I'm back for the time being, might as well brush off the cob webs and see what's up.

Soooooo yeah.

God dA looks so fuckin' weird now...Let's see if I can still navigate this shit.

I'll be going on a hiatus for a while after I get some owed art done (a couple commissions and a trade). After those are posted, you won't see much of me next year, but honestly, it's for the better.

Pony Features!

Taken from OpalAcorn :meow:
  • For those who comment on this journal, I will feature one of their characters. I'll also tell you what I like about them! 
  • ((Only 10 slots, Sorrryyyyy ))
  • If you comment, please do the same in your journal, putting the tagger (or original journalist) in the first slot. The idea of this is not to get a free feature, it is to spread art around for everyone.

COLORS! Oh how I love colors colors colors! I love whenever this little mare comes in my inbox. Some people would say she's a bad OC solely because of her mismatched hair and the fact she's an alicorn, but me, I absolutely adore her in every way. :love:
