I look at my gallery, and I see how varied it is... And so I wonder if people think I steal art or something. It's slowly becoming overtaken by my love of Korean culture/people, but it's just strange to see how different my gallery is from most people's. 

It's been a long time since I've written a journal on here - it seems it's been at least over a year. 

I'm surprised, really, that I'm still getting 5 views or so a day... seeing as I never go on dA anymore. You see, there's this thing called "school." You may have heard of it. Oh, and there's this other thing, "homework."

These two things are taking over my life, you see. So the only thing I do anymore is go to school, sleep minimally, and do homework for 7 hours a day. You see how this may take away from my extracurricular activities?

I really shouldn't be typing this, because I have 8 more pages of lovely Chem textbook to read from. And it's already 11:30pm.

So for those of you who take the brief time to check out my art, thanks. I'm honored. And depressed that I can't do any art and that I'm probably beginning to lose my touch because I'm so out of practice. But thank you.

Oh, and since there's almost 0% chance that I'll post another journal entry before Halloween, happy Halloween! And Thanksgiving, I guess, for those of you who live in the US. My Thanksgiving will be fairly unbearable, because I'm getting surgery the week before and have to miss school. So wish me luck!

No, really. That's all I really wanted to say. XD It's summer now, but I haven't worked on art one bit! I've been working and stuff.
I really want to find my digital style, though. Photoshop and SAI and stuff. Since it's not like I have time during the school year. Well, barely. I can work on some sketches but they're usually not good because my anatomy still sucks, lol. And it's always during a class when I have some downtime so I don't have much time. Of course, most people say it's great and everything (my drawings) but I know for a fact that they can't draw. And people who can't draw say things like that to people who have even a little more coordination than they do. Soooo yeah. I'm unsatisfied with my art life right now.

I've been having this problem of going to bed wayyy late at... morning? lol since it's not before 12am. And then I wake up at like 11am. But last night I went to bed at 3am and woke up at 8:30. ....Stupid work. I'm so tired right now.

Comic-Con is coming up soon. I wish I had gotten tickets while I had the chance. Some cool people are going to be there. And DeviantArt, of course, is in the Artist's Alley. I wanna go there just for that now. TTATT Why did I wait? Ugh. It's not even an hour away driving from here.

I started watching Koizora. It's good. Go watch the drama at www.mysoju.com. It's a good place to watch Japanese dramas... Actually I think there are other Asian dramas there too. Like Korean and stuff. And, since I'm a freak about putting down what I've watched (anime/drama) or read (fanfiction/books/manga), I signed up for www.mydramalist.info. It's kind of like MyAnimeList, but it's a smaller community and for dramas. So far, I like it.

I'm trying to use Photoshop! So far, I haven't gotten very good at it. I know some things but my knowledge is minimal. It makes me sad. BUT! I signed up for Lynda.com! It's amazing. You learn SOOOOO much there! I almost signed up last year but I never got around to it. It's not just Photoshop, it's a website full of tutorials about tons of different software.

But really! I'm active on this account, still! Even though it may not seem like it. I'm still favoriting and commenting on other people's artwork and polls and journals and such... I'm just not posting myself.

Today is my birthday. Yayz! My friends are so loving.... I feel so appreciated.
Also, chocolate releases endorphins, which makes you happy. And one of my friends gave me this HUGE thing of chocolate from London that she bought a few days ago. London chocolate~!~
Another one of my friends made cookies for me!
And everyone was so niiiice!!! You gotta love your friends.

Oh, a quote I just came up with: "If life gives you lemons, GO WRITE A SEXEH FANFICTION, NOW!" Haha~

I haven't abandoned my account, don't worry. I'm just really busy so what art I'm working on is taking a long time. I finished some manga things in school, but I want to wait until I finish this realistic drawing of *fail* Beyonce (it doesn't look like her lol but it looks good) so I can scan it along with my other drawings.

I got stuff for Christmas. Like, art stuff. I luff. And I had no idea Prismacolor pencils were that expensive until last month. I only got two, haha, since I was buying other stuff at the time.

Now, I really should go study so I don't fail my Bio quiz tomorrow~ And my scene for acting~ And I wanna go to bed soon~ And I need to do work-- yeah no happy squiggly line after that one.

Oh, oh yeah. HAPPY NEW YEAR! Damn I love emoticons.
