Pretty much self-explanatory, I created a blog/journal just to get some stuff out of my head, and give people an opportunity to read as well.

I'll put this link in my profile as well, and hopefully it takes off.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder my ass. Summer has begun and I've been sitting at home for just three days, and already I'm dreading the whole thing. On top of this, the girl I've liked on and off for a year told me she felt the same way at about the time school ended. And I'm stuck out in the countryside, counting the minutes and clinging to my Facebook, hoping for notifications. I really should do something constructive. Exercise. Write. Something.

I'm trying a little bit of everything lately. New clothes, new personality, new outlooks.

More specifically, I'm trying for the first time to seriously draw and compose (using Finale Notepad for the latter). I've never been especially artistically or musically inclined, and these exercises and doing my mind and emotions a lot of good.

Like writing, they allow you to put your ideas down and get an immediate product, which makes it richly rewarding. It's something I hope to continue to do. If I ever gain some skill I might upload some drawings, but don't wait around for it.

These practices are also useful in the Video Game field for soundtracks and concept art. Good stuff.

I'm sure some of my work should have the filters on them, but all they do is dissuade people from reading my words, obviously no the intended effect. And friends who are just popping in without a dA account can't see 'em. The filters are just for language and sensitive subjects, and I feel people need to exposed to more of that anyway.
