# About me
I wrote the perfect description, lost it, and now I have no idea what to say. I used to post a web comic but have been on a break for about a year. I've been drawing pandas since Jan 2011. Most of what I've done has been in Illustrator. I love the precise look, but it is tedious sometimes so I've attempting to work in Photoshop and use my tablet. Still a beginner on both fronts. I love a clean line, but really like the movement the sketch line gives. Still working to blend the two into a style I really love without giving up my own.Other sites where I post art.

Of course! No such thing as too many kitties and you have quite the beautiful collection. (: I like the vibrancy in your photos in general.

You're welcome! I thought you might like it.
I'm actually sick today. LOL
Overall, it's going well. I am stressed though because of finals next week and college. What about you? Is your new year going well?

Oh no! Hope you get better soon! I'm sure with a bit of studying you'll do well. What are your plans for college?
So far so good! I've completed a couple of projects and feel pretty good about that. My goal is to keep a more positive outlook. It's working so far! (:

Thanks. I don't really know. I'm thinking about going to UTD or something. I want to do something with computers because I love them! Just not sure. My dad wants me to do something else but I'm just not sure...
That's good! What project? That's one of my goals too. But I already failed cause Wed. I broke down and cried b/c I was soo stressed out but now I'm fine.

What is UTD? Computer work can be very rewarding, both as a job and financially. It also has its downsides, but every job does. It's all about what you make of it. What does your Dad want you to do?
I've just been trying to complete mini art projects and do something creative each day. It's always changing, but the ones I was referring to were both crochet projects. I made a hair bun cover for a girl in my dance class who is turning 16 this month.
That's not failure, that's just a need for release! (: I finally made a phone call to gripe with one of my friends, but it felt so good to let things out and let them go. Just trying not to focus on the negative.

University of Texas at Dallas. Sorry I meant to add that. XD Something in a hospital: doctor or nurse or something like that. Pharmaceuticals...
That's what I want to do but I haven't had time to because of finals this week but I'm finished today!! Did she like it?!? I bet you did a great job. You should take a picture of it and post it.
I guess. I try to think positive but it kinda get's annoying to do this everyday. Glad you got somethings out with your friend. : )

NP. So, does the idea of something hospital related appeal to you? You could always combine the two. There are tons of hospitals that use special software so if you developed apps that might be kind of cool. Just throwing it out there. I went to college for Psychology and ended up in computers, so you never know. (:
CONGRATS on being finished! Hope that decreases your stress!
Yes! She did! I gave it to her tonight. She wore it for class. It's a little too big, but nothing horrible.
I figure it's about balance, you can't be happy all the time, but better to try to be than not.

HA ha I failed my pre-calc test with a 53. I passed the class with a low B but my parents aren't giving me too much stress about it. But thanks for the congrats. Though my stress level actually increased today. (right now so yeah)
It does appeal to me... I just don't know... That is a neat idea. My dad has thrown out things like creating a game app for the iPod and stuff.
YAY!! That's terrific.
Though trying can get tiring and sometimes I just don't feel I have the strength to do it and then I regret getting angry and saying something I shouldn't. (complete run-on sentence I'm sure & I probably didn't make any sense XD)

Oh, yuck! sorry about that. Glad you ended the class ok though. Hope things get better!
oooooooooooooohhhhh!!! You should absolutely develop an app!
Makes perfect sense. I do that too. I think everyone does. :}

Yeah. New classes starting Tuesday hopefully things will get better.
I just don't know where to start. (I need motivation to start) I'm trying to figure out how to make digital scrapbooking kits. That's where I'm more motivated to do things. (though things are going slow with this too.)
Glad I'm not the only one.

Hoorah for the long weekend! I go to work on Monday, but it means I get a random day off later in the year. (:
What is digital scrapbooking? I'm completely clueless on this one!

Bickhamsarah In reply to mystikalyx [2012-01-15 04:22:17 +0000 UTC]
Thanks! That's always good too. : )
Well, I don't really know how to explain it. That's why I replied later on this... XD.
If you know what regular scrapbooking is then it's that but just with digital materials.
If not. I found a link that explains it better than I ever could with my teenager vocabulary (which is small). lol
Here it is: [link] and another one [link] (just in case you don't understand one of them)

Thanks! That makes total sense. Like scrap booking, but in digital form. Reminds me a little bit of pinterest. I can see it done in a booklet style form on an iPad or something like that. There's an awesome app I like called Trip Journal. It's for android, but lets you store photos and stuff from a trip while it tracks where the photos were taken. End result is a pdf with your photos and any notes you add. I always forget about it halfway into a trip, but it is fun to play with regardless. :}
