Here's wishing everyone on dAland happy and safe holiday and a Merry Christmas ! 2010 is around the corner and it brings new beginnings and opportunities for everything, I can't wait! Oh cripes my birthday is around the corner too*is getting old*.



I know I should have said this a little earlier, but a big THANK YOU for 40 000 views, all the people who take the time to look through the gallery, leaving faves, leave helpful and comments and constructive criticism. Love you all !

Alright, I've been pretty quiet on dA for a couple of weeks. I haven't submitted anything since October or made any new journal entries since November. There's a reason for this...that reason is, I've been sick, very sick. You see, in early November at the request of a certain older woman, whom, will shall refer to as my mother, I went and got the H1N1/swine flu shot. Waited 2 hours out in the cold and then another hour and a bit in line for the shot and eventually went home. After getting that shot, I had some rather interesting reactions including, nausea, and a throat infection which turned into a full blown cold. But that's not the best part...



Yes ladies and gentlemen an ear infection! It started so innocently too! I woke up one day with my right ear feeling a little sore and blocked, by afternoon, I noticed a throbbing pain but ignored it and went off to work. An hour into my shift, I had to go home because of the pain...by 8 o'clock...had to go to the ER because the pain was so intense, I thought I would loose my mind. After being sent home with painkillers and antibiotics, I tried going to bed, but it's kind of hard to go to sleep when it feels like someone is driving something into your head through your ear canal. So I got up, tried watching television, slumped over to the right hand side(lol balance) with a hot water compress. Guess what happened next? Stuff started leaking out of my ear ! Why you ask? Well...my mom thinks my eardrum burst ! So for that weekend, there was no working for me. Went to the doctor the following week, had the ear syringed and examined and he found my ear was infected bad, so once again I was barred from work. As a result of this infection I've missed a week of work, got hopped up on painkillers(and really mellow lol) and missed out on precious time that I could be listening to music with heavy bass...Right ear...why did you have to get infected now? I mean really? You were going good for 24 years and then NOW you decide to do this? I'm not happy with this. On the bright side, I'm getting better and my hearing is coming back. Leah likes hearing through both ears!



I have christmas art under way and ideas for vector art. Pretty much I was doodling and watching a lot of tv in bed while my ear was giving me hell. Remember kids, DO NOT GET AN EAR INFECTION IF YOU CAN HELP IT!!



After reading through a couple forum posts and asking questions, I learned that livestream's procaster won't work on my pc because the screen resolution is too large. I'm hoping to get a new laptop for Christmas since my current one is out of commission. With a smaller screen resolution, I shall procast and maybe...just maybe...actually say something while doing it*hates speaking in front of people*!

So who's ready for Christmas :3?

So I tried having my first mini livestream session with =Jinzouki and it was a complete disasater[you can actually see it if you click on the on demand button]. Not sure why but when I try running painter (which I use to ink stuff with), it slows down to a crawl. It shouldn't! I have 4GB of RAM and an AMD 64 x2 processor...wth man ?!? I'm almost thinking I need to start taking programs off or something. Well here's hoping that someone on the support forum will answer my post about this or an email will get me support. I want the world to see my failart in the making !!



Enjoy my pretty button untill I get things work. Hey maybe this is a sign I should start digitally inking things in PaintTool Sai or Photoshop...hmmm...

So I came to acquire my very own butler, he seems very eager to do things for me and when he completes a task it's perfect...a little too perfect. When asked how and why the things he does are so perfect, his response is usually "After all, I am one hell of a butler!" or something along those lines...





I swear everyone on dA and their dog seem to have an account on there now. Well I purchased a mic and I have an account so...I'm just going to leave this over here...


Just need to make something interesting enough to show myself inking or colouring.

Yup it's the journal meme you seen everywhere!
