just started this fun little wishlist project thing on her journal that sounds like a lot of fun. I hope you all participate in this!

WISHLIST GUIDELINES:

STEP ONE

* Make a post in your journal. The post should contain your list of 10 holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from simple and fun to really big. The important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want.

* If you wish for real possible things, make sure you include some sort of contact info in your post, whether it's your address or just your email address where Santa (or one of his elves) could get in touch with you. In this case, you can always just note someone on dA for the sake of privacy.

* Make sure you post some version of these guidelines in your journal, so that others can join in and participate to spread the holiday joy!

STEP TWO

* Surf this forum and browse the lists. Here's the important part:

* If you see a wish you can grant, and it's in your heart to do so, make someone's wish come true. Sometimes someone's trash is another's treasure, and if you have a leather jacket you don't want or a gift certificate you won't use--or even know where you could get someone's dream purebred Basset Hound for free--do it.

* You needn't spend money on these wishes unless you want to. The point isn't to put people out, it's to provide everyone a chance to be someone else's holiday elf--to spread the joy. Gifts can be made anonymously or not--it's your call.

There are no rules with this project, no guarantees, and no strings attached. Just...wish, and it might come true. Give, and you might receive. And you'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special.

My Wishlist

1. Of course, to spend time with friends, especially during the holiday season (it gets pretty lonely, y'know).
2. To travel some place far and interesting (and for me, "far" isn't exactly that far, just interesting at least).
3. A sketchbook that can handle pen and ink very well.
4. Discs for disc golf. I need my own set so I can stop leeching off my friend.
5. Dance Lessons? I love to dance, I just need to learn how to do it. o_O
6. One Piece manga! I'm enjoying it so much right now.
7. Kewl shirts! I always have short supply of shirts. T.T
8. Stickers! It is so difficult for me to find kewl and unusual stickers.
9. Music is always nice (dance, instrumental hip-hop, crazy weird music... iunno). Introduce me to something I can move to.
10. People I can do collaboration projects with. I know there are a couple of people I said I was gonna do this with, but never did. C'mon, I'm up for it!

If you comment saying that you'll make a list, let me know when you make one and I'll put a link up in the journal. I'm hoping your Christmas wishes will be fulfilled by someone special!

I HATE RATS! THEY ARE OFFICIALLY MY LEAST FAVORITE ANIMALS EVER!!!!

THEIR CORPSES SMELL OF DEATH AND MURDER AND THEY MAKE ME VOMIT!!! THEY ALL NEED TO BE KILLED FAR, FAR AWAY FROM MY HOUSE AND LAUNCHED INTO SPACE! IF YOU HAVE ANY AS PETS, DO NOT TELL ME 'CAUSE I'LL PERSONALLY GO TO YOUR HOUSE AND ROAST THEM IN A FIRE.... OR PROBABLY NOT, BECAUSE I'M QUITE SURE THE SMELL WOULD BE PRETTY UNPLEASANT.... EXPLAINATION MARK EXPLAINATION MARK!!!!

So, I hope all of you had a very enjoyable Thanksgiving weekend and I hope the holidays will treat you well! Much love to all of you!

Wow, it's been so long since I've joined DA! I really can't believe it! o.O
I mean, I was a Junior in High School when I signed up and now I'm in college!!!

Still, thanks for the love, support, feedback, and criticism you guys have given me over the years (or maybe just months :/ ). I continue to aim towards making great art (because if you ask me, it's just decent at the very most).

I would say "Hope to stay for another 5 years" but that sounds kinda creepy. o_o

Thanks Everyone! Laters...!

FINISHED COMMISSIONS:

Yup, so today I'm officially 21 years old.

I'm getting further and further away from my teenage years, and I don't like it. I still feel very much like a child and it's becoming less fitting for me. T.T

Nothing else much to say. I'm not doing a lot today other than drawing and probably a special lunch with my parents.

I'll have more work up soon! Laters!
