I'M FED UP.
13 years ago
General
I hate this. I'm so miserable. Yesterday I'm promised an outing with my folks because I wasn't able to hang out with my friends, but then they go and literally both decide they'd rather take a nap than fulfill their promises. Now today, after apologizing, mom's taken me... to go shopping for my spoiled little teenage brother's fucking shoes. I can't get a single goddamned break.
Oh, and on top of that, my friend who promised to scan and ink my drawings six weeks ago in exchange for art has yet to send me anything to hold up his end of the agreement! Plus the multiple folks I've given gift art to seem like they don't want to acknowledge me and upload their gift to their gallery, and maybe help me get some sorely-needed recognition.
On top of THAT, I've either misplaced my phone (unlikely), or someone's taken it. I'm fucking pissed. I feel like nobody here even looks at my art...

FA+

And on top of that, I understand your problems. Hey. I know we don't talk too much, but if you wanna vent, then send me a note, and I'll play your counselor ;3
*hugs* Stay strong, hon
And didn't you managed to get online through DS? oO
NUUU!!! :'( :'( :'(
i'll give a call also, see what i can find :(
And it isn't just shoes, it's an entire outfit for junior prom...
they like to do "BS" games like.. daily between themselves ("BS Game" a white-wolf sourced game-like system where the only rules that exist is that you must create a char concept within the idea of White Wolf's Vampire series... but you dont need books, or char sheet, or ANY RULES OTHER THAN THAT. literally. not a one. free game.)
arg!! rule = not ment to be broken for the whim of being lazy.
I just hope you get things fixed soon :<

You know Ill always be there for you hun, just dont give up hope!
If theres another way to contact you, let me know, I need to talk to you!!!
If your carrier is AT&T, you can get a cheap AT&T/Cingular phone such as this one off eBay and have them put a new SIM in it for your account, that model of phone is basic but it's also built like a tank. (If you have a different carrier, just find an unlocked one. And avoid the "tracfone" version, they use odd custom firmware.)
So as my friend had. Some prick took his smart phone on a festival and he roperted it to the police. 4 weeks later he got a police number in Italy. They found it near the border to Austria. 8 weeks later he got it back.
And I? Well, appearantly showing off a light phone (luckily it was a old and cheap one) near a river isn't a the best idea.
Just calm down a bit. Anger is a pointless way to react. It doesn't bring it back to you. Nor it will give you a break. You will just keep spending time on hating stuff without accomplish anything at the end.
I just hope everything will turn out well for you. *hugs*
The other things however... I can relate to.
The art, I love your art, the only reason I vanished is due to college work which was very important. I'd only just come back from finishing it this week, I have a loooooot to catch up on XP
It seems you've had a lot go on as of late and this green dragon can't just sit by and not try to help~
I know this might be obvious in itself, but dwelling on all of this (the more, not so serious bits) won't so much good, try and find something which helps you relax, or even cheers you up c:
Some of these things as I've read, I can relate to, I'll be more than happy to talk to you about some of these things if it'll help c:
I enjoy your art and I'd certainly would love to commission you for some of it given the chance, I loved the gifts you've given me of Deek and I certainly want to return the favor one day. In truth I actually want to feature yourself with Deek one day when I next feature him!
I do hope you get a chance to get your phone back and I do wish I could help in some way. I know we need to try and chat again, get both back upto speed with each other!
Also, if you need a getaway next weekend, just call or pm me, Teli and i are planning on going to Game Day next sunday. Same entry as FNM but those that enter get a full art Latchkey Seeker from Avacyn Restored, top 8 get a foil Killing Wave from AR, and winner of the game day tourney gets a playmat with Avacyn herself on it.
i'm quite literally in the middle of doing my half of the art trade you started with me quite some time ago. :P
i've been very VERY bad about doing art of any sort this past year, and i openly admit that. i-am-sorry.
and while it almost feels like an excuse since i'm telling you this only -after- you post a journal about it, i can send you a scan of the art-list i have and show you that you're at the very top of the list.
i do hope you catch a break soon though, such circumstances do suck :(
*huggles*
I apologize for not commenting on art. I do take looks, though.
If it makes you feel better, I'll go through the art and comment on some of them. Actually, I probably should do that without asking.
Some people have rules about uploading other's work onto their page. I only managed to overcome this in recent times, as my uploads of hyper-ball illustrations will tell you.
I'd be happy to upload art from you, even writing a little story. I haven't earned the right to one, but I thought you would know I would upload one. 'Course, I need my computer online first, but that should be fixed soon.
Try to distract yourself from the frustrations. Do stuff you can enjoy, so long as you stop thinking about that stuff for awhile.
but your art does look good :) i personally think a lot of the problems you've been having are simply based on stress. family. pressure. lack of recognition... phone now...
i just think you might be too stressed to be able draw effectively... i might not know much about art, but one thing i've learned from my many art-sy friends over the years is that with stress the first thing to suffer is art-type abilities.
