Happy new year!
Happy New Years EveHowdy everyone. It was a traveling day today but now I'm in Miami getting ready to party it up on New Year's Eve! I wish you all a happy New Years and I doubt I'll be on early to do a florida day five later as I will probably be drunk and exhausted.
Please remember to get your entries into me for the holiday contest. I believe it ends tomorrow. And have a happy New Years!
Busy Me!___And Holiday ContestSo, assuming the world doesn't end tomorrow, I'm going to give a quick update on what will be going on in my life in the weeks to come. I still can't imagine I will be uploading very regularly until the new year. That means comic book pages, commissions, and all that.
Now-This Weekend:
- Survive Apocalypse
- Hang out with Boyfriend
- Friend from the Army coming home
- hang with boyfriend and friend from army
Next Week:
- Christmas Eve friend stuff
- Christmas
- Boxing day friend stuff
27th Dec - 2nd Jan
- Disney Land
- Potter Land(Universal Studios)
- Miami for New Years
So yeah, I'll be busy XDD I know I managed to get a page out to you last night, but yeah... Not going to happen for a while unless I randomly have more time.
____
Please remember, come the new year, this contest will be over!
Draw any Lion King canon, semi canon, or The Future of Our Past(Uru and Mohatu's Reign) characters representing something about the holidays! Snow, Christmas, Mayan End of the World, Hanukk
Raven Ravings About TrollsI would like to address this really quickly, but I don't want to put too much attention on it because journals like this tend to feed the trolls.
Lately, I've been subject to a few trolls here and there. And I would like to say how to deal with it. Most trolls love attention. And unless it's a serious accusation about me, I will not engage them. I will not hide the comments or block them because that's just feeding the troll, but I will not engage. I will ask my commenters to do the same please. Don't feed the trolls who comment on my stuff. I really do appreciate the gesture, I'm glad people want to stick up for me, but please. Just don't engage them. It's better that way.
I would also like to address something else. I don't trace. I don't make bases. I don't use bases. And I don't copy. I reference screen shots and real life lion photos. I hope that you all trust that.
Anyway! Remember my holiday contest! And I hope all of you are happy so far with your random commenter holiday gifts

Congrats guys!!!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!All submissions for the contest are closed
HAPPY CHRISTMAS EVESorry for the inactivity but I've been busy with friends, family, and the boyfriend. Holiday season is crazy busy all the time XDD
I'd like to wish you guys a Merry Christmas. Even if you aren't christian, or celebrate Christmas. I think that people should be able to wish people a merry holiday no matter what holiday it is. If someone came up to me and said "Happy Hanukka" I wouldn't get insulted. I'd say "Thank you, and a Merry Christmas to you!" We should celebrate and accept our differences :D No need to be "politically correct" with me!
So a Merry Christmas Eve to you guys! I hope you have happy holidays. I'll be active again as soon as the holiday season is over :)

Almost Done!! Contest Advertisement -w- ... Blah..Hi everyone!!
Just two more days then I'm freeee :D In the meantime, a little break.
My contest is still going on. And I have a little poll at the bottom. Please vote!!! It helps the winners :3
Here are my rules:
:bulletblue: It must be a Hetalia Reader Insert.
:bulletblue:It must have something to do with Winter.
:bulletblue: You may submit as many times as you want
:bulletblue: Lemons are allowed but please keep it decent. No dirty or 'barn animal' language please. AND MAKE SURE TO PUT THE APPROPRIATE FILTERS ON
You will be judged on:
1: Proper spelling, grammar and spacing. I know that there are different spellings, terms for certain words and that is fine. If English isn't your first language, do your best anyway!! ^^
2: Keeping the characters 'in character' and try to make the reader realistic or well balanced regarding character development.
*Note: Use http://hetalia.kitawiki.net/index.php?title=Main_Page to help with the Hetalia characters's personalities. If they don't have a l
Different opinions will always be there.It makes me sad when I get online in today's world and see almost nothing but butthurts and trolls and people being so obnoxiously rude to one another because of differentiating opinions.
I just want to put my two cents in, and I'm not trying to start a fight or anything, but here's my (gasp!) opinion on this matter.
It is not worth it to lurk around someone's YouTube video comments, someone's writing, someone's profile...just to see what their likes and dislikes are, and then blatantly flame them like a goddamn volcano with your own opinions just to start a fight. It's immature, childish, and just plain annoying.
Here's the thing, people...
Not everyone is going to be an avid supporter of MLP.
Not everyone will think the new Pokemon generation that was just announced is the greatest thing to walk the earth.
Not everyone is going to like your writing.
Not everyone is going to like your art.
Not everyone will believe that Hetalia is the best anime in the universe because of the sexua
My favorite PokemonOkay, so, I'm really bored and out of it right now, so I felt like spamming you all with a pointless journal about my childhood.
When I first got into Pokemon, it was courtesy of my cousin Nate. He gave me his old Pokemon Yellow game when I was seven or six, and I immediately fell in love. I began to watch the show, and fancied myself a Pokemon master. ...even though I couldn't get past Brock because Pikachu cannot beat rock-type worth a crap.
Here is a list of my favorite Pokemon and the reasons behind it.
Rapidash: I was really big into unicorns as a child. Like, really big. You have no idea how many plush unicorns and knicknacks I have that I refuse to throw away due to nostalgia. But I remember I was watching an episode of Pokemon, and it had a Ponyta and a Rapidash, and I freaked out. They were the best things ever. A fire horse and a fire unicorn? Hell yeah! I think I begged for a Rapidash for my birthday, though...no joke. I was an idiotic child. I wanted a goddamn fire u
Birthday and updatesSooo...today is my birthday, obviously. It's strange how much I've matured over the past year. I look back on this day only a year ago, and there's such a change...I went from this hyper little Hetalia-obsessed idiot to a cynical and, well...mature person who thinks things through more. I'm not bragging in the least. I just am really shocked at how much life has changed me in a year. I feel old.
Anyway. Thank you to everyone who has wished me a happy birthday. It means a lot. I'm so lucky to have such wonderful supporters. <3 AND THANK YOU FOR THE PLETHORA OF LLAMAS THAT HAVE BEEN SPAMMING ME FOR THE PAST WEEK OR SO. OHMYGOSH WHY. ;W; I LOOOOOVE YOU ALL.
As for writing updates, well...life has killed my muse. I've not been in a writing mood at all recently, and it's really distressing since I have a request to write as a prize. Also, I began an original story a couple weeks ago, and the prologue is the only thing I have done. I want to write more, but...every time I go to do
A couple updatesSorry if this journal skin is too much to look at but holy crap I love it. And I'm not really a fan of Miku. Or Vocaloid in general. But I do like Luka and Gakupo. Anyway.
I've been...doing better. In terms of mental health, I suppose. This entire week, actually, I've been sick. I've missed school Tuesday, Wednesday, and today. It sucks. I've come down with the influenza/cold/fever thing that's been attacking my area relentlessly. Woohoo eastern Iowa. Hopefully I'll be okay to go tomorrow so I can get all my make up work...this weekend if going to be nothing but homework. Ugh.
Back on the mental health bit. I've been...I don't know. I've not been incredibly and utterly depressed and whatnot since I posted my rants. I guess it did help to vent, then. But I'm still taking a writing hiatus. I'm sorry. It's just that if I can't get in the writing mood, then what's the point of posting mediocre pieces?
My laptop is still at Geek Squad. They think the hard drive was bad to begin with in the
2nd Feature and Thank You'sOh my goodness. Oh my freaking goodness. You guys, you lovely watchers, all seven hundred of you, thank you so so much for watching me. Just...thank you so much.
I know I've been saying that so many times recently, but it's how I feel. A few months ago when I reached one hundred, I never thought the number would get any higher. I mean, seriously, my stories aren't that amazing and my art is mediocre at best, and yet you still continue to support me. I don't have any better words to express how happy I am and how much appreciation I feel for all of you. (Ah, I'm getting bashful over the Internet. >///
