Here it goes

I'm not too savvy with FA, so I'm not sure who's going to be able to see this, but I just wanted to post out my kinda plan for this whole thing.
I kinda went into detail a little bit on my profile, but I'm not sure how long that info will stay up before I get bored of it and change it, so I figured I'd post a journal. Maybe I should do these more often, about all kinds of things!
Anyway, without getting into anything personal, things have been pretty gloomy lately, and I've overdone my welcome with people who I normally relied on for emotional support, so.... coping time!
This is really the first time I've ever drawn anything without getting frustrated or disgusted with it and throwing it out. As of this journal, I've done two "drawings" in two days, and I must say it was very calming and relaxing, which is always welcome these days. It might be hard to find time to draw because of my work and school schedule, but I promised myself that I would do one per day at the minimum. Hopefully once I get a rhythm going, I'll start drawing on a whim and posting those, and slowly start moving the "daily" things to the scrap bin where they really belong.
I'm hoping to get criticism and help as I post, but I also don't really expect anyone to see anything I post either. Posting here gives me more motivation to get it done. I know there will be days where it will feel like a chore to draw, but I'm going to force myself to anyway. It's time to really work for something, even if my talent lies elsewhere.
This is all kinda corny and whatnot, but I'm hoping this will be a new chapter in my life, and an opportunity to improve. I'm doing a total overhaul of everything. From tearing down my room and cleaning it top to bottom, to actively trying to be a better person each day. It's time to grow up and be someone that other people will look up to. Drawing is just one part of it, and perhaps it will end up being one of the easier parts. Regardless, the past few months have been a sort of wakeup call for me. I'll be out on my own soon, and I can't keep doing what I've been doing when I'm in the real world and can only rely on myself.
Nobody reading this (if it's even public, I assume it is? ;~:) probably cares much, but hey I got it out there, and now I can't turn back. This is the plan, and I'm sticking to it.
wooooo!~
