Core Expiring and Life Updats

3 min read
CUZ THOSE TWO TOPICS A SOOOO RELATED TO EACH OTHER

Anyways, yea my Core Membership expires in 3 days. I can't afford to renew it right now so I guess I will just have to let it end and enjoy a boring empty DA page again =w=b
I would try to push to get enough funds in order to renew it but I haven't been active lately so I don't know if it is worth it. 

I am back in school for the semester, started last week. I have three classes and so far they are good. My only complaint is that on Tuesdays and Thursdays I have a 2 hour break between classes and since all my friends graduated at the end of August (if I hadn't changed my major and messed up a few times I would have also graduated then) so now I am all alone. It also means that I no longer had a designated place to go sit between my classes so that didn't help my anxiety issues.
LUCKILY yesterday I found a place that I can now go to and comfortably sit during that long break. And there is enough space here for me to set up my tablet and kill time drawing! So now even though I am about to lose my Core Membership, hopefully I can get more active on here to make it worth saving up to renew it at some point soon ^-^

Hopefully I can continue to keep up with my school work and pass these classes no problem. And then I will be down to only 5 CLASSES left until I can graduate!!!

Art and Stuff

4 min read
Yea I know, SUPER CREATIVE JOURNAL TITLE

Anyways, I hope everyone is having happy holidays~

My Christmas was nice. It was a little sad not having my Grandpa around or my step-Grandmother, but we managed to celebrate for them and all those who are no longer with us. One of my aunts actually found a bunch of video my Grandpa had taken 25 years ago when my Grandma passed away (she passed a few days after Thanksgiving 25 years ago) and put the video on a DVD so we all sat and watched that and it was perfect. Listening to my Grandpa being the goofy person he was with his memorable laugh as he kept annoying people with the video camera. It was fun for my cousins and I to see our parents younger but exactly the same as they are today. It was also very special for me to see at one point that my Dad's parents had gone over to my Grandpa's house and he videoed them sitting there on the couch. My Grandfather (Dad's dad) who passed away 13 years ago was on the video and I started crying a bit hearing his voice again after so long. 
The whole video was the perfect ending to the day and week we have had. 

As for art, I am trying to get stuff drawn that I want before I get sucked back into school in like 2 weeks. I REALLY don't want to go back but that is a whole different topic xD
I had wanted to maybe try opening some commissions so I could get points and monies to then commission arts of my main OCs. They are Chibi, Shirayuki, and Clara. (I might add another one or two OCs to be main ones but for now those three are it). I REALLY want to decorate my page with Shirayuki art for the winter season but I need more art of her and well, no points or monies xD;;;

Thanks again to all my watchers and friends who said such kind words to me through these tough few weeks. And for all the support through the years and years to come! While I tend to be quiet a lot, it really does mean SO much every comment and fav and note that I get from all of you :heart:

To my watchers and friends...

5 min read
EDIT: We got the call this morning that my Grandpa passed...
I did go over yesterday and though he was asleep the whole time, I said my goodbyes and I feel good about that. I will miss him so much but I know he is with my Grandma now after 25 years and with step-Grandmother who was also such a kind woman. Those three I am sure will have lots of fun together now and forever...

...I know I am not very active here anymore and I am not sure how many watchers of mine are still active but I feel like I still should let you all know something going on in my personal life right now...my Grandpa is dying...

My Grandpa is 96 years old, he was in World War II and he is the father of 13 children (my mom is number 12). My Grandma passed before I was born so I never met her, but my Grandpa did remarry in the late 90s. Sadly though my "step-Grandmother" passed this summer. 
Now in the past few years my Grandpa's health has declined a lot. He always had poor hearing but his eye sight started to go a bit a few years ago. He has ended up in the hospital a few times with different infections or sicknesses but he has always managed to pull through...
Last Thursday he got sick and ended up in the hospital again, where they found he had an infection. The problem was that the infection got into his blood and they needed to test and see if he would be able to fight it off...
He wont...
He was sent home yesterday with Hospice, which is basically when the doctors know the person is going to die so they make them as comfortable as possible...he has days to a few weeks left...

When my Grandpa remarried, two of my mom's sisters (my aunts) bought the childhood home from him and have lived there ever since. Christmas is a HUGE holiday in my mom's family and every year we have Christmas Day at that same house that my mom grew up in. My Grandpa is there now, which is nice for him to be home. Most of my mom's family lives nearby so we are all able to be here for him and for each other. But the feeling is weird...knowing he will die soon but that he is still here...And I want to be excited for Christmas but I feel so guilty doing so...

I just wanted all of you to know this. I had planned to get back into art and stuff while I was on winter break but now I am not sure. I might still draw and such as my way to cope with everything going on, or I might totally disappear again. But for anyone who does talk to me, if I seem sadder then usual now you will know why. I hope you all have a joyful holiday season and remember to show love to those who mean so much to you. And that I thank you all for the support through the years and hopefully years to come :heart:

Small Help for a Big Cause

3 min read
I don't normally do "spread the word" or such journals, but this one I feel like EVERYONE should take a look at!

The amazing :iconsquishibear: is artist and creator or some SUPER adorable species including Merinori which my newest Shirayuki is one of! 
Recently this artist posted a journal looking for help in raising money to afford airline tickets for her and her boyfriend to head back to her home country. More information can be read here

But this isn't a journal about another "go donate to this amazing person", though that would be awesome. No, this is to tell everyone that Squishibear has opened up a system called "VALY VIP" where for JUST $6 you are allowed a list of amazing offers, including a MYO ticket to ANY of her adorable species! 


Above you can read all the information on the offer and see what you can get by donating to her! Please take a look ^-^

Any Minecraft Players Out There?

4 min read
My Gallery My Website Tumblr



Hello all!

I have been playing Minecraft a lot lately and have been working on a lot in my Single Player world where I am Creative mode building up a town/village/city/THING (idk what to call it right now...)
And I wanted to know if any of my lovely watchers also played Minecraft! 
If you do, I want to hear about what sort of stuff you do in the game and if you have screenshots (creative mode or not) of things you have built I would LOVE to see them!
