^{Wassssup 8'D

Thank you so much for the new watches , I really appreciate all the favorites and the pageviews .

Excuses for my slow responds -as usual- , I do read everything and you all make me really happy with all the sweet comments and views and watches <3.
I hope I can do the same in the future too when I have a bit more energy o u o.

So how did you guys celebrated Halloween ?
Sadly I have to note I didn't do much exciting on Halloween , I fell asleep during the Horror Movies lol lol lol they weren't scary at all x.o . And I went bowling with moons and maaike , it was ..horrible I couldn't even lift the heavy ball rofl.

That was quite the fail orz. Even her little cousin could give that ball a nice push 8'D I officially need to eat more spinach .

BTW CGING IS SO HAAAARDDD ;w;.

Omg adhdjdhjdh and I thought that I could do it ...lineart.
NOOO I FAILED ORZ.

If anyone has tips when I start coloring .. then I'd really appreciate to hear it <3333.
I love input even though I don't request critique , critique scares me .. I had the weirdest comments in the past that made me hurt a little x.o so I keep that off.
But if you have a good advice or think I should pay attention to something , please help me out ;w; ?
I hope I can learn this , because I want to start doing backgrounds and I am just clueless how to do them traditionally ..so hard -shot-.

So yeah ..wish me luck ;w; ?

So yeah , the reason for my new Journal is those Secret Santa events going around xD.
They are always invite only and though I enjoy looking at all those Secret Santa Artpieces , I decided to stop only being a passive online christmas enjoyer and try to set-up an own Secret Santa !

SECRET SANTA

I am going to start an own Secret Santa o u o .

I am going to give out invites to friends tomorrow or if they read this they can ofcourse join too <3.
Basically it's open to everyone although I do am going to allow people in who are around my own level (sorry ;w; ) I don't think I can manage to run a really big Secret Santa and I want to keep things fair for everyone D: .

Soooo how does this work o u o ?

- I'll give invitations to my friends or you can comment on this journal or note me about the Secret Santa Event to join this o u o .
- November the 20th will be the end-date of the Recruit for this Secret Santa . IF you're accepted into my Secret Santa put your wishlist up immediatly in your journal so that your Secret Santa can see it.
- On November the 22th *two days delay for the folks who need more time to put it in their journal XD *
I'll let someone who I trust in rl very much choose by a lottery who gets who o u o so that I won't have influence on it either ! If anyone has a better idea you can also help me out <3.
- Put effort in your picture , I want to keep things fair for everyone o u o.
- You can basically ask everything to get drawn , I am not fuzzy about this but keep in mind that weird requests might be really hard to draw XD.
- I'll post all the secret santa participants here. And on christmas their drawings in case someone misses his/her drawing.

Secret Santa Members

So yeah , join us o u o <3 ?
The more the merrier *O* !

And please don't be offended if I don't accept everyone ;w; .. I am trying to keep things fair for everyone but perhaps in the future I will do something for everyone .

For the Participants

I have send the invites to almost everyone I had in my head to join <3.
Thank you for the fast responses , everyone I really appreciate it
This is going to be a great event ! I am getting in the christmas spirit already !

I have made a FAQ about the Secret Santa Event.
I'd suggest for all the participants to read it all so that you know when the deadline is , when you'll get your name etc etc etc .

What is a Secret Santa ?

A Secret Santa is a Christmas Event. It's a gift giving event and it works as follow.
Everyone puts up their wishlist ( A journal with requests that you'd like to receive as a drawing (for example : Your original character(s) , Pokemon Gijinka(s) , Fanart etc ) . When everyone that participates has put up their Wishlist , I'll assemble all names * or think of another neutral way* and make a lottery - or any kind of other way to make sure the secret santas completely random - and I'll note you all with the names of the Secret Santa you're assigned to ^^.

So to make things clear : You're drawing for only one person.
And only one person will draw your request.
But you won't get to know until your drawing is done and uploaded who was your secret santa XD.

What can we put in our wishlists ?

I have thought about this for half a day and made a lovely suggestion to make a top three in your Journal with your requests what you want to have drawn.

For examples : Your three oc's ( Mika One , Alice Two , Ash Ketchum Three or yeah anything like that XD )

It would be at best to either put up one couple option or all single options.

To prevent people feeling cheaped out if they have to make a couple and only get a single I'd like to request from the people that are asking for a couple if it would might be okay if they could choose person out of the couple ^^ ? It's ofcourse up to the Secret Santa to how generous he/she is but I really would like to stress that you put effort in your picture ! Preferably a full CG or a full traditional drawing !

You can ask Yaoi if you want to but it would be at best if you can put a bit of variation in your wishlist , so not only yaoi couples but perhaps also one of the boys as a couple or something different XD ?

What is allowed ?

Basically I am allowing any type of request but bare in mind that not everything is equal easy to draw XD.

I do would like to avoid that people request : aliens , hentai , old people , different skins , complex backgrounds and group shots.

When is the deadline for our picture ?

I'd like to put the deadline on the Last Day of Christmas.
That would be December the 26th.
I want to give everyone a happy christmas like this so please try to make this deadline <3.
If you're done earlier DON'T POST your artwork until the deadline xDDD.
That way everything will stay a surprise until Christmas !

If you think you can make it , please note me beforehand and I'll put up a new deadline.
But the limit of that deadline would be New Years Day.

I am not invited but I do want to join , is that still an option ?

I am recruiting /letting people in until November the 20th.
If you think you have a good friend that deserves a gift and can draw a bit who would like to join you can always ask me too. However , I am going to limit my secret santa to max. 50 people.
However I want to stress that I am only going to let people in if they are around my own drawing level.
It can be higher but no lower XD , I want to keep things fair for every participant that has joined.
I am sorry if I am offending anyone with this rule but most Secret Santas unfortunately have this rule and are purely invite only .

When will I know who I get to draw for ?

On November the 22th I am going to give everyone their name through a Note with the link to the Journal about who they get to draw ^^. If you haven't received it for some mysterious reason than please Note me as soon as possible and I'll immediatly send you your name <3.

Oh noes , the number is uneven , how are we going to solve this XD ?

I'll make sure that everything will go smoothly ^^ . I am aiming for an even number but if per any chance it will get uneven than I'll make sure that everyone gets a nice secret santa gift <3.
That will be taken care off (: . I want to make everyone happy.

If you have any questions then please don't hesitate to tell me <333.
I'd like to keep things as less confusing as possible ^^ .

It's the last day of Christmas , where can I see my drawing and find out who my Secret Santa is ?

For anyone that might not be watching their secret santa , don't worry <3. I am going to put up all the secret santa submissions in my journal with the usernames next to them ^___^ .
If the secret santa in question is so daring to want to reveal their identity on the last day of christmas to their name then ofcourse you can also note your drawing <33333.

I really don't mind how you want to reveal yourself ^____^ as long as you submit the drawing I'll make sure everyone gets their gift .

Thank you for your patience and for all of your questions until now , I am so glad everyone is so helpful and kind

And especially a big thanks to my lovely and really busy buddy for being really helpful and for just being awesome 8D <3.

ONE REQUEST CHIBI SLOT OPEN

As it's almost Christmas and want to make my Watchers happy I'll choose a lucky Deviant to get a Free Colored Chibi from me o u o. I'll give it to you on Christmas , so that it's a small gift.

October is a busy month / Rl commissions

Journal Entry: Sun Oct 18, 2009, 3:38 AM

Drinking: Fancying a cup of Tea

Hello ~

^{Sooo how are all my watchers doing o u o <3 ? Any preperations made for upcoming Halloween ?
It's not really big here so most people won't dress up but Halloween does make me happy because you have all those horror movies on the Television , hehe ~ .

I had a lovely week , because I went with some friends to Warner Brothers Movie World in Germany XD.
Though I am a chicken and most things are too scary for my taste , I had fun watching my friends sitting in those scary rollercoasters and other insane high things.

Now to spam you guys with pictures , because I can mwahaha 8D .

( Thanks Maaike for the shots <3 ) -should have brought my camera orz -

Nick - Park , the only safe place from those Halloween creepers that walked around XD. We started to go to the kiddy side because I am too scared for those 'grown-up ' rollercoasters rofl.

and I went into this xD . It was actually a lot of fun and it feels really relaxing to lay in that instead of sitting up xD. Our friends feared they would get nauscious so they skipped on this one ~ . Lol it's hard to see but we're supposed to be the ones that are waving orz.

My friends Moons and Lau in another nauscious making monster XD. It was too high for me so Maaike and I sit this round out to see how they would get nauscious in that thing rofl , they didn't get nauscious though XD .

Aah isn't this funky *u* ? Those glasses were totally awesome rofl XD. It was at the end of the day and we felt tired from all the action and adrenaline and so we went to a 4-D show from Shrek . My friends and I got a laugh fit because of the rocking chair that we were sitting on everytime there was a scene with shrek riding on a horse roflmao. If the donkey or the dragon sneezed you actually felt wet stuff on your face , that was kind of icky rofl xD. I am the one on the right btw 8D .

Yay it's spongebob , you could hardly miss him rofl. My friend bought a nice shirt of him *O* .

Later that night they celebrated Halloween with all those masked freaks walking around XD some had real chainsaws roflmao . I thought it was funny but I can imagine people thought it was scary , it was twilight after all orz. Sooo we quickly escaped them and barely made home *O* and yes I survived without biting marks of a vampire mwahaha ! Maybe it's because of all the garlic dips I usually eat that they left me alone xDDDD.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand now I am back and catching up on commissions and art trades again *O* !

On a sidenote -->

Thank you so much for featuring me <33 I was surprised and honored when I found out today ;w; you're too nice <33 -don't deserve , don't deserve , don't deserve-

Tables Turned/ Art-Trades /RL COMMISSIONS CHEAP

Thu Sep 10, 2009, 1:10 AM

Mood: Thanks
Listening to: White pearl , black oceans

^{Hehe raise your fingers when you didn't see this coming up 8D!

Gooood day all ~ I feel a lot better now ^___^ thanks for all the kind words and cheer-ups , my friends are the best <333 -cuddles - .

Especially a big thank you for Sapp , Moons , Limey , Yume and Haf <3.

So why do I sound less depressed than in my previous Journals ?

Not many people know this but I have been going to my school with a depressed feeling for over a year now. I honestly had not a solid idea if the education I was doing now was even going to be legitimate for what I wanted to do after (: . Our school system is very complicated , it's nothing like any other education system out there so I am not going to bore you guys with more -not so important- information.
I called the University that I wanted to go to about my situation and they told me that I might not be eligable to go there even if I have graduated from my current education.

That depressed me so bad that after a peptalk from my mother I decided to quit what I am doing right now.

Why ?

I already have an high school paper saying that I graduated from a pretty high education , I did this one to go to THAT university to follow THAT course XD. Now that it seems I even can't do it even if I graduated it's basically a waste of two years of education .

Also I have always wanted to become either a psychologist specialised at working with children or becoming a teacher.

So in February (unfortunately this years of education at college has already started ) I am going to start with the Pabo. 'It's an education that is solely about teaching at a primary school '
I love kids and I think I will have fun standing before the class ^___^ .

My only concern is , am I enthusiastic enough ?
I am a little insecure when it comes to music classes and PE ;w; -I felt shy following those subjects LOL -

Now to rant my way to the next subject

Well you can guess this one too 8D . Since I have loads of freetime starting tomorrow I am searching for things to do . I am going to search for a job in town and help my mother out but I think I am also going to do Art-Trades again .

SO IF ANYONE WANTS AN ART-TRADE FOR ME NOW IS YOUR CHANCE 8D

BE WARNED : I only accept people AROUND my level or if the art style interests me a lot .
You can NOTE me or comment here and I will tell you if I am interested and Note you back <3.

I can draw a lot of things - male or female - but background is still mediocre so beware XD.

I can do :

Chibis

Waist-Up

Aaaand more but you have to ask me for samples since I don't have many ;w; .

Break

Mon Sep 7, 2009, 11:23 PM

Mood: Nervous

I just wanted to announce that I am thinking of a Hiatus of Art for a while.
I found out this week that my new school is on a riduculous far away location far away from public transport ... not only that we are placed at the highest level of the school past steep stairs .

Now why would that be a problem ?

Ever since I was small I am phobic for heights , no scrap that , I am terrified of steep stairs .
It makes me so nervous that I drop weight fast , have no inspiration , get depressed , panic attacks daily and basically focus on it 24/7 .

It's my last year at that school and the education system is changing this year so I have to graduate for the last half of subjects this year or else my past graduations of the other half of subjects I had to do last year will be in vain and I will not be able to go the University ..

I have absolutely no clue how to motivate myself to pull myself through this and I have lost every inspiration I had for drawing , heck even anime or manga doesn't interest me at the moment.

I am going to talk to the headmaster about this problem Friday but I doubt it will lead to anything .
This school has let me down last year and I basically had to arrange everything myself , including where I have to take my exams etc. I told him about this last year and he smiled and said ' Well , everyone has troubles sometimes , I can't help you. '

I don't know what to expect or what is to do about it .. I actually shouldn't focus on this now since I have a horrible amount of homework but I just can't stop.

For the first time in my life my father is concerned about me though. He had a phobia for thirty years so he knows it can control your life extremely and he is very concerned if I am going to make it .
Mother told me that I can use her car to get to school , she is trying to help me too ..that feels nice.

I am glad they are trying to understand me and I know they are trying to push me for my own benefit .
I just feels so scary to do it on my own on a school where I know no one and the teachers won't help me.

Sooooo to make it short : I am taking a break from art except for art-trades and commissions -pace is going to be slow , sorry about that - aaaand I am not going to be really active on Gaia either.

Also my RL commissions will be open , I will need it since my father is going to be unemployed next month and it can take months before he gets a new job , just like the last times.

BTW : I know people have it worse than me , don't shove that fact under my nose if you're going to read this. If you feel offended or think I am a coward keep that information to yourself . I have the right to talk about how I am feeling and if you don't want to read it then don't bother watching my journals C: .
