Updates, Travels, and Commissions
9 years ago
Hello all!
I figured it's been awhile since I've given much of an update around here, so why not! As you may or may not have noticed, I've been drawing and spending more time here lately. It's been so nice to be around again! I forgot how much the community and being surrounded by all the awesome furry art makes me happy :)
As for what this kitty has been up to, it's been a lot of work and life shenanigans. To be honest I went through some pretty big bouts of anxiety, which was part of the reason I started disappearing as much as I did. Luckily it's being dealt with, and under better control, so here I am!
I've also got some big life plans in the works, which is another step in feeling better. I function better when I have goals and plans. One of those includes moving overseas for a year or two next August! Most likely to South Korea, but Japan and China are also on the table (depending on work). If anyone here knows how much I've always wanted to to go Japan, you'll know how excited I am!! *Bouncy purring kitty!!*
Also if anyone has any recommendations before going, moving tips, things to see, etc, I am always open to hearing them! I have been reading/watching so much about moving there, it's almost turning into an obsession, heh.
On that note, I'm also looking to clear out my debt before going. I have lived very close to the wire when it comes to debt/survivability for years, often not being able to make payments and all that jazz... Well, it's going to be very hard to move under those circumstances, so over the next year I'm going to be opening up commissions here and there to help deal with it.
So if any of you (or anyone you know) is interested in a commission, send me a message! I like doing it on a Pay What You Want scale. That way you can choose what's best for you, and we will agree on what kind of sketch, ink or colour would work.
Also, I don't mind tasteful nudity, or suggestive themes, but I prefer not to draw porn or anything too extreme. Not that it bothers me, I just prefer not to draw it, so if you're curious whether I'll draw something, just ask! I won't bite :)
Cheers lovely fuzzies, scalies, and everything in between <3
TLDR: Life is crazy, but I'm surviving and planning to move to Korea, so I'm opening up some commissions!

I will have to get a commission from you at some point, after this month since everything seems to be due @_@
I would happily do a commission for you anytime, or even a trade cause I love your stuff too :)
Its been going all over the place for me, been bouncing around the island a bit in the last years work wise, just heading back to school in a few days now! Still keeping up at the ol art though! ^.=.^
Ooh, good luck with school! That's awesome, I really hope it goes well for you :D What are you taking? And which school?
Glad to hear you're still arting it up as well, I always liked your work ^_^
I am gonna be going to the large VIU in Nanaimo for the next 10 months, taking an auto mechanics course. Last few years I have bounced around jobs, everything from working labor jobs, working at a car dealership as a lot guy, and a few jobs working IT for small shops, but they have always been a bit dead-end so I finally decided to take the chance and go get trained up in something that will be a lill more solid.
I should introduce you to my niece, I think she's starting there this year as well :)
hehe thats cool that your niece is also attending that school :D
I'm glad you're doing better. I hope it stays that way. Furry is a nice environment, the dreaded drama has been a lot less dramatic lately, although FA still gets hit by hackers every-so-often. It's still a site for sore eyes, if that's what you want.
Traveling in Asia? Nifty! You should get to know
I am so glad to see you again, Tassy. I know you've been posting on DA, but I just don't really like it there, I'm not sure why, but it feels uncomfortable. Silly, pretty kitty! I'm glad you're back.
Yeah, I heard about the hacking going on, so lame that it would happen here, blegh. But still fun to be around, so hopefully the chaos eases up.
Oh cool, thanks for mentioning him! I might have to say hi, it would be cool to know a furry there before going :D
I generally communicate with people here more than on DA, I'm mostly just nostalgic for that place, since I've been there for so long and love following some people there.
I'll be keeping an eye out for your journals and pictures. *snuggles* Welcome back!
And yeah, I really wish they would overhaul this place, the web developer in me cringes sooo much at how outdated it is... But eh, there's still worse out there, and the sheer numbers make it useful.
There's also a lot of useful vids on the subject of living in the Countries you've listed, so check them out.
With the exception of Hong Kong and Taiwan, I would recommend against China, due to political issues and the ongoing crackdowns on pretty much everything, currently going on there. As a foreigner, you would be subject to an incredible level of scrutiny and if something does go sideways, you are pretty much screwed. I'll see if I can find the YouTube vid on that.
