I should remember to write in my journal more...it's conveniently put here for a reason

Anyway, hey guys! Sorry it doesn't seem like I'm active on here and stuff lately, but I should be. I mean, even though I have an Associate Degree in Fine Arts, I knew I wasn't done with school, but my life has been soooooo busy.

I'm going to list the "important" events that occurred between the last time I wrote in this journal, (October 24th 2011) and now, (May 2nd 2012)

(In my opinion, these are events I'm willing to share with the public)

-November 2011-

*My dog Teddy was sick for a little bit, after eating chocolate from Halloween (Yes he fully recovered from it)

*I found out my feelings for a close guy friend were mutual after knowing each other for 3 months (As in we became a couple)

*Thanksgiving was celebrated and I was given a near impossible task: Draw and color 23 drawings for a book that was not going to be published, but given to my cousin's daughter (my aunt's granddaughter) for Christmas as a gift, because my aunt was the author


-December 2011-

*Christmas was coming, and so was a deadline, this was the most stressful pre-Christmas I've ever had without having to worry about school

*My boyfriend/best bud <3 and friends motivated me, even though I couldn't tell them much about what I was doing, because my aunt thought it "Might get published sometime soon"

*I seemed to be the only one working on stuff all the way up until Christmas Eve, my aunt and I had 2 meetings, and I had to motivate her to finish her work, because I was working my butt off for her, and balancing my hectic daily duties around the house, such as wrapping all the presents, and setting up the tree, and trying to help everyone be happy around me.

*Thanks to the support of my friends, I kept my sanity and found out I could finish the project "at a later date"

*I celebrated Christmas, and got Kirby's Return to Dreamland...which I proceeded to beat 100% on Normal Mode within a matter of days, due to things still happening around me xD

*Later, I got a Dazzle (video capture card) and upgraded from camcorder Let's Plays to awesome HD quality...
---> This was with Christmas money, yes

I'll bore you with how 2012 has been on a later date, I bored of writing too much stuff right now x_x

So, yeah...I do have a life, but a hectic one...

and before you ask, yes my boyfriend and I are still together and best of friends n_n <3
and yes, art will come out in the most randomist of times, because I do draw a lot, but keep forgetting to hit "Submit Art" and putting it in my Scrapbook! herp derp

Youtube is where you can find me mostly nowadays, kk? cool
