Happy Saturday!
Nothing going on today. just posting to tell everyone that I'm not going to hold a contest because a lot of others are holding them and I don't want to overload anyone. and i can't seem to find the time to write down all the specifics...and i'm afraid that when I pick the winners I won't have the time to make prizes...so, maybe next month when things aren't so hectic^^

today, I'm hoping to see KoolAid^^ I think we'll go out for coffee cuz Starbucks is liquid heaven. and then we'll just chill here at my house. well, it's all up to her, sooo. I dunno what i'll be able to do today. We'll see^^

I'm slowly, very slowly getting some of these requests done. as you can tell by my portfolio, i've had a lot of personal art ideas coming out as well XD and a lot of stress in my life has prevented some drawing as well. but all my drawings will be done eventually. i promise that.

hope you guys are doing great! Any plans for this weekend? I hope everyone is well, and having fun. if you need me for any reason, PM me^^ ttyl!

   Jessu's really really happy!!!
My parents are the best in the world! they got me a tablet and Photoshop for Easter!!! OMG I was not even expecting it at all!!! It cost like 200 bucks for the bundle, and I didn't deserve it, but I am freaking happy. a new experimental piece will be up soon^^ Hope you guys like it!

How was your Easter? Hopefully, if you celebrate it, you don't forget that it has more meaning than just all the candy and stuff...a lot of people tend to forget...but anyways, I wish all of you a Happy Easter! take it easy; I'll see you all later!!!

   A Little Poem I Wrote...
I dunno; this is just a poem I wrote when the feeling was right, you know? well, most of you won't know what's going on, but I just thought I'd post it anyways^^

Not what it used to be;
No longer are we satisfied
with ourselves or the other.
It will never be the same;
You don't understand-
you hurt me everytime you look at me
with that devastation in your eyes.

Why won't you trust me?
Am I not good enough?
You are burdened with reasons
I do not know.
Yet you refuse to seek help
in the haven that I should be.
I don't understand why-
You let yoruself suffer;
You let yourself cry;
You keep me locked out.
I wish you would let me save you.

It was my fault.
I pushed you until you snapped-
I wanted to know your pain,
and you struck me down.
Now you are completely closed;
Still pushing me away.
I live with the guilt.
I can't help feeling this way.
If I lose you, it will be my end.
But it will be my fault and mine only
if we lose what we have.
It's not what it used to be.
I suppose it's better than nothing.
But I wish we could just go back.

I hate who I am;
What I did to you.
I hate how I act-
why can't I change?
Why can't everything be the same?
I caused you to turn away;
It's my fault that I'm now alone.
I brought this hell upon myself.
I want out,
but I can't leave without your guidance.
You're not there-
You don't want to be.
It didn't used to be this way;
I screwed up.
I messed up the thing that I cherished most.
And now it's getting more difficult to believe
that we can go back
To the way things were.

We're not what we used to be;
I want to go back-
I need everything to be normal again,
or I can't go on anymore.


yeah, like I said, most of you won't understand what I mean...but hopefully it'll make sense to who it's aimed for. this is the only way I can get my feelings out right now...well, that's all I have to say, really. so see ya guys later.

   Hey guys!
Not much going on over here...well, kinda...

first of all, there's a few new pieces of art up, if you want to take a look at it.

secondly, I was thinking of holding a contest, but first, I want to see if most of you have time or would be interested in entering...it would be a month long, starting the day I post about it...like I said, I want to see how much time you guys have^^

and lastly, do you guys remember that one wolf contest submission I posted? well, it was in a show, of course, or I wouldn't have named it that. Well, anywho, it didn't win, but it had a bunch of requests to buy it! the lady running the show said that there were a lot of people who wanted to buy it, and were asking how much it was. the lady said that she couldn't sell it cuz she didn't know how much I wanted to sell it for...well, I didn't put a price on it, cuz I didn't think anyone would want it! but apparently they do, so I might try to sell it in the next show I put it in^^ my art teacher said I can get at least a hundred bucks for it; I don't personally think it's worth that much, but I dunno. it's the first piece anyone's ever wanted to buy, so I'm unexperienced in selling my stuff. I'll be trying to make a lot more detailed and realistic paintings and drawings in the near future.

well, that's about all I have to say. I hope you guys have time for the contest, and I also hope that you are all doing well. I'm alright, just got a lot of drawing that I want to do, but can't get out on paper X( well, I'll talk to you guys later! <3 me

   wow...long time, no post!
sorry! I didn't realize that it's been a while since I posted^^

well, anywho...nothing really is new. My new computer has been up and running. No Photoshop yet...dunno when that's coming.

ummm, requests are at a standstill. from countless recommendations of a break for me, I have finally agreed and taken a rest. don't worry though- it won't be long before I find myself working on them again. but right now, I'm working on a contest pic- Higlue's contest. I already finished Rain's contest pic. Most of you guys saw it already, but if you haven't, it's in my portfolio. and I have one request that needs to be done by the 30th...that'll be done in the next couple days...and a couple b-days are coming up in April that I must draw for. *cough* Casey, Zach, Selene *cough* heh heh...those will get done soon too^^ and a buttload of personal art and gift art for friends at school are waiting to be finished as well....but I'm not as stressed out cuz of the request break. Hopefully any of those who have a request from me are understanding and don't mind that it is taking a while for me to finish all of them. *sigh* they're still on my mind, but it's good to know that most of you can sympathize with me. You don't know how much I appreciate that.

I hope you all are doing alright. oh yes, I forgot-you guys should go visit Inferno Wolf...she's having a rough time, and I figured she'd love for you to stop by^^ Oh, and DarkWolves Faith too. Oh, and KoolAid Guy with her soccer and countless other things. I know there's a lot of you that are having tough times...I know I am...but anyways, take care of yourselves. if you need anything (except a request X3) you can PM me^^ see ya!

   Jessu's happy!
Cuz Jessu's dad let her order a brand new computer from Dell yesterday!!! I'm so excited cuz now I'm allowed to get Photoshop! I've always wanted it, but was never able to get it because my current computer is so old...but the computer I'm getting has more than enough memory and space for Photoshop and then some. It has 2GB of memory and a 320GB hard drive...that makes me happy....and a kickass processor too...so now I can multitask!!! WOO HOO!!! I can't wait! It'll be here in 3-5 business days...or so they say...KoolAid Guy got a new computer, and it didn't come for weeks! but that was because they canceled it for some reason...I dunno...but she's got a badass computer now, and I'm getting one, and everything will be ok!

so, I'll probably be doing a lot of requests on the computer...once I get Photoshop...for now, I'll keep drawing them out by hand^^ I don't mind it that way...I'm just excited about a new medium! Well, ttyl! I hope all of you are well!

   1000 Visits!!!
OMG-You guys have given me the privilege of 1000 visits^^ I know that most of you probably have more than that, but I'm proud of my visits...and I thank you guys! Most of you told your friends of my art, which most likely caused them to come see my site too! I know I've told you before, but you are the best! Every single one of you are awesome^^

Umm, there might be some art up later...I'm not sure...KoolAid Guy should be working on scanning one of my big pics for me; that might be up...but if not, a request from someone at my school should be done soon...again-time is not on my side. It seems like the day is way too short! Well, anywho, I hope you are all doing well. I'm getting busy with school once again...I despise school...I really don't see the point of going...all you truly have to be is street smart, in my opinion...and in the field that I'm going into, you must know how to use a computer...well, I should be all set, huh?^^ My parents make me stay in school...I'm a good student, I just don't like all the people...I'm not that much of a social person.....are you guys like that at all? I have only a close group of friends that I'm always around in school. Other than that, I don't talk much X3

Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you. I know that it's posted on my site, but I'm not taking any requests anymore! Not for the time being, anyways...I have 15+ to finish now, and about 8 in waiting! I cannot handle anymore! -_-; sorry, but if I take anymore I will have a mental meltdown from stress^^ It's not really the stress of the drawing-it's more like the stress of remembering all the ones that I have to do...

alrighty, that's long enough. take it easy, I'll talk at you guys later!

   Thanks guys^^
I needed to post to thank all of those who checked out my wolf pic^^ I got so many votes for that! I was so surprised! I suppose you guys like the realism stuff! I would do more of those, but they take sooooo long! perhaps I'll do one once in a while though^^

oh, I wanted to tell you guys about KoolAid Guy's new fanart! She's crossing Inuyasha and the Lion King-meaning that she's making the Inuyasha characters into lions! They look so awesome! You should go check them out-she worked very hard on them! I think they look awesome^^ I think the characters that she has so far are: Inuyasha, Kagome, Shippo, Sango, Miroku, Kirara, Kikyo, Koga, and Kohaku. I know that she's working on Sesshomaru, Rin, and Jaken right now, and soon, she'll do the villains! It's a really cool idea! so, if you haven't, you should go check them out when you have the time^^

I know it seems like I advertise a lot, but I only do it for deserving art^^ anywho, how have you guys been? Oh yeah! I told you guys that I was going to that My Chemical Romance concert! OMG!!! IT WAS SO AWESOME!!! I had a blast; I've never screamed so loud for so long! If they're coming to your area, you should go see them! They have an awesome show! We had floor tickets, so it was even more fun^^ I can't wait to go sometime again!

yesterday, I went to laser tag with Koolaid Guy for her birthday^^ that was fun too; I suck at laser tag! Koolaid's really good at it though! we had a couple more friends from school join us as well. I think she had a wonderful birthday party; I hope her birthday was a great one this year^^ She seems very happy, so I can conclude that her birthday was good^^ well, I'm just rambling; thanks for reading if you made it all the way here^^ ttyl!

   My Chemical Romance concert today!
I won't be able to post later, so I'm posting at like midnight:30^^
Today, I'm going to hang out at KoolAid Guy's house, then we're heading over to a My Chemical Romance concert^^ It's sort of a celebration for her birthday. Then tomorrow, we're gonna play laser tag^^ We're gonna have so much fun! I can't wait!

I put up some new art that I'm really proud of. I'm entering it into a local contest. I spent about 7-9 hours on it^^ So, if you have time, would you check it out?^^ I don't expect to win anything, but I'll enter it anyways. The reason I don't expect to win anything is because it was sort of a last minute piece. See, my art teacher from school called me yesterday and asked me to submit something.....and I didn't have anything, so I made something^^ Hope you guys like it!

well, I might have time to get to everyone's sites over KoolAid Guy's house, but if I don't, then forgive me^^ I'm having trouble finding time for anything lately.....well, hopefully I'll talk at you guys later...if not, then soon! See ya!
Heart, me! ^.^
