Life update

Tue Jul 1, 2008, 9:06 AM
Well its been a good three years since I've updated this thing and a lot has happened. My husband and I have had our share of heartache, having lost both his uncle and his little brother last year. We've kept ourselves busy with work and school though and managed to get through the rough stuff and on to the good stuff.

I celebrated my 27th birthday yesterday. Didnt do anything too exciting, just went out to have dinner with a bunch of friends and my brother.

Early October we'll be welcoming our daughter, and our first baby, into the world and we coudlnt be happier. As I sit here typing this she's having a great time kicking at my ribs.

I really doubt with school going on and with a baby on the way that I'll be doing much art any time soon. I'm having a hard enough time just trying to keep up with the several fanfics I have yet to finish. But I just wanted to say hey to everyone, I'm still here, but been mega busy! Hope you're all having a great summer!

LOl...yeah I did. You gonna do somethin' about it??
I know I haven't been following on much of your Bleach stuff and I'm sorry about that. It's all fantastic but its just not really my thing. This for some reason though...something about it got to me and I wanted it around so I could look at it several times. I dunno. It spoke to me, to be all sentimental.
I still have yet to get a job so dont feel too bad on the computer thing. I'm nothing more than a waste of space. Well, that's not true. Kind of have my hands full with school and Sammy so, you know...keeping busy at least.

Yep, take you to see the therapist -ow! *is swatted at the back of her head by a certain silver furred male*

I know I haven't been following on much of your Bleach stuff and I'm sorry about that.

Nah, it's alright, I expected as much -as far as I know you *chuckles and nudges*

Eh? My commissioned piece got you sentimental? D:
Is that a good thing or a bad thing? :iconhystericsplz:

You? A waste of space? Naaaaah, I'd love to get back to chatting like we used to and spewing our pent up frustration on everyday life. Frankly speaking I'm getting absurdly bored to the point that I'd wonder what's the meaning to my life. My drawing passion is 'dead' to a certain extent, thus I don't feel cut out [for the lack of a better term] to be in any sort of art career. So now........well I'm at a complete lost. I don't know what jobs to take. I don't have any specific job in my mind that I would like to take. I don't have a lot of expertise -everything I learned in school and collage went out of the window. I guess I've been too blind-sided since a kid on my ambition to be an artist that I didn't thought of anything else (career wise), and now...here I am...tired of drawing anymore and completely don't know what to do or what path to take.
Most of the advice I get on DA is not to take retail-related jobs *sigh*

I wish I could give you some really crazy awesome advice but apparently I'm not all that great at it right now. The last time I tried to give anyone advice it kinda blew up in my face and I just ended up pissed off.
If I WERE to give advice though...I'd say fuck art. I know its what you went to school for and I know its what everyone expects you to do but I honestly feel like that's putting a ton of pressure on you to meet everyone elses expectations. You shouldn't have to meet anyone elses expectations at this point. What you should be doing is making yourself happy. If that involves pissing your dad off, so be it. I still want to hurl his ass out a window into traffic...but that's besides the point.
You're gaining no joy from what you're expected to do, so dont do it. Get a job that you could be relatively happy with for a while and kind of nonchalantly go about sending out resume's or portfolio's pertaining to your major. And go big. If you have any art teachers that have ideas of some pretty prestigious places you could submit your work to...go for it. Aim high without trying to if that makes any sense and while aiming...if you want to get a job somewhere that has nothing at all to do with art, get a job.
I dont know if any of that is possible with where you're at right now but that's the advice I have. My dad's always taught me you need to look out for number one and keep yourself happy, no everyone else around you.
Now...if you'll excuse me...I've got a studly silver mouse-man to seduce. :smooch:

And I miss talking to you too hun. A lot. :tighthug:

Lol, I'm glad you like them! I'll sure try but I've got my hands really full with my little baby girl, school and work. But whenever I get a minute to myself (which is usually never) I try to write what I can. Thanks so much!

Hey hun,
life's been so-so here. Nothing way off the normal in my dictionary *dramatic sigh* That and life without MSN. It's almost boring...well although I've like 600+ messages [half of them, like, weeks old], my lazy and ultra-procrastinating side been raring its ugly head at me *flops lazily*
