Life Update!
9 years ago
So I have not really posted much here in 2016 and that's mainly because I have not had much to post, I don't really buy too much art any more (trying to save more) and music motivation has been at an all time low, so I've just not really had anything to say here. I am more active on twitter though: https://twitter.com/JakeM_Wolf
2016 has been a strange year, It started very 'meh' but then took a happy upwards turn when I went to Just Fur The Weekend (a small first year con here in the south west of England, check it out http://justfurtheweekend.org.uk/) and met a load of great friends and decided to become a staffer for next year. Following this I moved out of my parents' place and to the city (Bristol) where I got a shitty job but I quickly left that for a much better one as Assistant Manager, but was promoted to General Manager after about a month. Yay! That was my summer pretty much.
Everything was great, however 3 weeks ago I was made redundant (the company was not making enough money and could not afford to keep me on) and that has really hit me hard, my pride and confidence have taken a strong knock (I really loved that job) and it has been very stressful and scary, I have just started a new job but I am unsure how good it is going to be as the company is very disorganised and I do not like that, so I am still looking around but this time of year it is very hard to find a decent job.
My love life has been fairly non-existent, sadly, I was casually dating someone for most of Spring/Summer but that didn't lead to anything so I have been feeling quite lonely in that department.
So yeah, this year has taken a bit of a downward spiral as of late, I can't say I am particularly happy but I am aware things could be a lot worse. I just have to take each day at a time, it's been very up and down, one day I am positive about things and think it won't be forever, and then others all I want to do is cry because I don't know what to do, no decent job, no relationship and hardly any friends. Heh, woe is me, eh?
I hope things will get better, and I hope to get a good job soon so I can start to commission art of Jake being a slut again.
Thanks for reading
