Hi! :wave:

So a lot of things have happened! xD While I've been working on setting up art commissions, I've also been doing some job hunting for a position as a speech language pathologist (or SLP for short)! Lots of applications have been sent, and today there's been a company that has seemed very interested in hiring, me, which I am SUPER DUPER EXCITED ABOUT! The recruiter sent my information to the location with an open position and I should hear from the SLP soon who's going to be my supervisor for my CFY (Clinical Fellowship Year).

So, that said, please send lots of thoughts and prayers my way that this next conversation goes well and this job goes through! I'm awaiting anxiously to see how everything turns out!! =D

**EDIT**
So yeah, I got the job I was looking for as a speech therapist! I started on the first of October, and it's been a very stressful month to say the least, but I've been hanging in there to say the least!

That said, art is probably going to be postponed for a bit longer, at least until I have some time to draw again (and once my new puppy is able to be in her crate for long periods of time without getting fussy). Thank you to everyone for being patient with me. x'3

So hey... I feel kinda bad that I haven't updated this thing since like... last year... Whoops... ^^;

But anywho, the summer is here, and things are looking up. I've been able to make a little extra money through some tennis lessons, as well as finish up with shadowing a speech pathologist in one of the many different fields I could possibly work in once I graduate from college and start looking for a job. It was definitely an awesome experience, and I'll really miss those kids whom I got to work with the past four weeks. TwT

I've slowly but surely been getting a couple drawings done here and there. Lately I've been trying to get through an art block that just... I dunno, I get these ideas and inspirations to draw something, but then once I start trying to draw it I'm all like, "LOL Noooooope! oDo~". xD; But I have been able to work on a couple writing ideas, so what I wouldn't be able to provide in art drawing wise I still have stories to make up for it.

Freshman year of college was a complete success; I had such a blast getting to know people and taking part in my classes (though there were a couple here and there I wasn't too pleased with.). And studying for finals was pretty interesting. The night before my last final the whole complex where I was living at had a power outage and nobody knew why. They sent campus police and students were freaking out and the RA's were trying to keep everyone calm. And on top of that there were these guys running around in the dark in black morph suits trying to scare everyone. But then once they got to my floor my awesome Asian RA saw them and threatened to call campus police on them and they didn't come back. xD; Even so though, I locked my door just in case (my roommate was staying at her sorority house for the night) and played Star Fox 3D like a cool kid until the power got back on. Needless to say I ended up pulling an all nighter studying for a literature final. It payed off though. =w=b

I could go on and on about some of the stories in my classes, but I'm gonna try to not ramble so much. A lot has really changed over the past few months, some good and some bad, but I'mma try and keep my chin up.

That said, I'll keep in touch and see y'all around. God bless! :wave:

Hey guys ^^

Hello everyone! Man, it's been quite a bit since my last post. Things have been busy, but I don't mind. =D

So college is awesome. I've really been enjoying it, and most importantly, I've been able to keep up with my studies. Which is important, because I'll be needing to do that if I want to go into a graduate program. I've made so many friends, and I've been able to have some time to myself when I've needed it.

I've been trying to work on things for here when I'm home on the weekends. But I have to do a lot of my classwork online, so that tends to cut into my time here. So I'll try to get stuff up when I can.

I've been thinking up of some ideas for Freedom Fighters, but I haven't thought about how I'm going to put it in writing yet. I'll try to get a chapter or two posted up, but while I'm not at home, that'll have to wait, 'cause the story is on my home computer. =/ But otherwise, I've been thinking of other things while I'm here at college. Getting some inspiration here and there has helped a litte bit too, so there's a start. =)

Oh, and I'm PUMPED about Pokemon Black 2 and White 2. Really pumped. I've been playing around with both Black and White and it just makes me more excited about what'll possibly happen in these new games. And Wii U. I'm excited about that as well after seeing some of the things it can do. :w00t:

So, that's what's going on in my life right now. I like hearing from you guys, so send me a message once in a while. I enjoy hearing out life is going for ya. Can't wait to hear from you guys! :wave: :hug:

Well guys, the day has finally come. I'm so excited right now, as I finish getting ready by putting on my cap and gown.

Today, I officially graduate from high school.

On a plus side, I don't have to deal with anymore drama that comes from that place, and I can focus on classes that will, in turn, help me more on my major. On the downside, this means that I'll be getting  a job shortly after today, and then I'm college bound. So I won't be able to post a lot for a good long while...

But I want to thank you guys, for all the laughs, art, and support that you have shown me over the years. I have truly enjoyed seeing what all of your creative minds have come up with, as well as how much you have improved and prospered. I have enjoyed being a member of dA for almost five years now. You all have inspired me to draw and create, and let my mind explore.

I have to go now, but I just wanted to squeeze some time in for you guys. If I'm not on for a very long time, you'll know why. xD;

With that being said, thank you, thank you, thank you, so very much. I hope to see you all again one day.

Take care and God bless! :hug:

How has everyone been? :hug:

I hadn't updated since January. I could use a new journal... ^^;

Anywho, school has been crazy (nine days left till my Senior year is finished! =D), and I've had so much going on over here that I've hardly had the time to do a whole lot. But! Hopefully I can get some drawings in, since I"ve got a few WIP's going on right now. And plus, since I've been brainstorming this for a while now, I've decided to try a little LoZ-related project known as Freedom Fighters.

Freedom Fighters is like a cross between Wind Waker and OoT. It's about Princess Zelda, who wishes to travel the world and see all of Hyrule, but she can't, because she's always having to stick around the castle and do royal duties and what not. But then, there's a riot and Ganondorf takes the Hyrule throne. Zelda, Matt, Impa, and a few others try to escape from him; Ganondorf is hunting for Zelda and Matt because they possess something that he needs in order to obtain ultimate power. Somewhere in Hyrule Field, they are ambushed by some of Ganondorf's minions. Zelda thinks this really is the end, but at the last minute she and her friends are saved by a rebellion force known as the Freedom Fighters, led by none other than Link and Caroline, who are loyal to the true rulers of Hyrule: Zelda's family. Zelda decides to lend a hand to stop the new Evil King's tyranny, and together she, Link, Caroline and Matt travel around Hyrule to help the rebellion grow and unite all in Hyrule to bring back peace.

The thing about this story is that while there are Spiritual Stones, the Ocarina of Time, and the six Sages from OoT, I also want to try and incorporate some things from WW as well. I'm going to add the other sages from WW, as well as the Pearls, the Tower of the Gods, etc.. (Because I'm starting to fall in love with WW all over again. xD)

Then I've got a couple of other drawings here and there that I'll try to get done and uploaded. Once school is over I'm going to be looking for a job over the summer (since I'll be the other kid in my family going to college!) so I need to work to help support my family and all. Things are going to be pretty busy for a good long while...

Other than that, things are starting to look up! Thanks to God for everything. =D

And all being said, I'm off. Thanks for everything, guys. Take care and God bless! :wave:
