I finished my first semester at college! It was pretty rigorous, and I'm not gonna lie, a lot of the fun of making art has been beaten out of me due to art school. But I'm going to keep pushing forward because this is just the point where they want us out of our comfort zones. I'm glad I'm no longer bound to the strict rules of high school and I feel like I'm learning more now than I ever have. This has been a good experience and I can't wait for what's yet to come! (That may or may not include a year abroad in Japan)

School is crazy. Applying to college is crazy. And work.

Work is insane but incredibly fun. I adore every single one of my co-workers and I wouldn't trade this job for anyplace else at this current moment in time. It's minimum wage but I'm a high schooler so yeah. For a first job, I am super excited and grateful.

Wow. So I don't really dedicate my time to DeviantArt anymore but I've been really busy and Tumblr is my main domain now. Junior Year has been super fun and incredibly tense. I am almost finished with yet another sketchbook and need a new one. A proper scanner and wacom tablet are on my wishlist to keep the art uploaded but that's gonna be awhile...

Wallowing in self-pity... I lost my baby, my cat, Sir. Lipper. It had just turned December 16th and I was at a friend's house. My mom called saying he had died of a heart attack. He was eight and the best cat in the world. He had gorgeous green eyes that sparked with life and a pelt of a lion cub. He had the raspiest voice and the cutest tail swish. But those eyes of his. Like jade. Sir. Lipper was not only my pet, but my own baby. Part of me was lost with him, but I know the will of God and so be it.
