Random untitled update
5 years ago
General
Not really sure why I'm typing this, mostly just wanting to replace the last journal I made without deleting it... might do that later.
So random untitled 'update' journal. I guess.
I don't have too much to say, or anything new to say. Usually my update journals have something to, well, update. Nothing new has happened either good nor bad. I feel stagnant, in both art and life. Nothing feels like anything is happening or ever will happen. Coronavirus keeps me in the house.
I really don't draw for myself anymore. I still have mental health issues that feel neither worse nor better. My insomnia and constant nightmares have not improved since I last posted a journal. They never went away and I still have them. There is not a time when I sleep where I do not have nightmares. I've tried all the methods like falling asleep listening to specific things, some suggestions from friends and what-not. Short of taking sleeping pills, which I do not trust myself with. I've been basically watching nothing but slasher movies, which I'd like to mention I somehow have not had a single nightmare from. It seems my brain deems my real life much more miserable than a slasher.
I guess I feel less like killing myself lately. But then again I don't really feel anything anymore in either direction. I feel completely apathetic.
I feel like my art situation will never improve. I have yet to get a working computer to run the art programs I want to run. I am working towards it but I feel I have no distractions in the mean time. I feel like my entire life revolves around waiting for a computer so I can "finally draw". Which I assume is a lie my brain tells me which is why I haven't been drawing, I don't count commissions I speak of art I want to create. I feel as if things hold me back, namely my shitty computer. And while my computer is actually a issue I feel like my mental health stops me from drawing as well. I feel like it tells me I can't draw so I believe it.
I feel most people would have compromised or moved on or something by now. I have never been good at making small things not feel big to me. Anyways I run a MLP group on DeviantART with nearly 10,000 members. I'm pretty happy about that and honored to have been given it.:)
One of my favorite YouTuber's roasted me live on his stream when I requested it lol, that was lit.
I've been watching a show called Boardwalk Empire, since I have run out of historical-based shows. I watched AMC's the Terror season 1 and 2 as well as Chernobyl. I quite liked them, Adam Nagaitis is great in everything. He's in another historical drama I want to check out. I hope they'll make a season 3 of the Terror.
I have, in my spare time, been doodling furries. Not really for any reason just boredom. I want to proper finish them but I will wait until I get a proper computer, I think. My current one runs like shit.
I've been having "movie night" with myself every so often, which is something I usually never do. I actually never really watch movies outside of theaters. I have the attention span of a fly, afterall... I watched Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 and Texas Chainsaw Massacre, I really liked them. TCM2 is def one of my favorite movies now. I love all the Big Red Soda that was in it, it was actually filmed really close where I live. As a Texan I really enjoyed seeing Texas in a movie. The original Texas Chainsaw Massacre definitely is scarier than any horror show I seen. Most horror movies feel like action movies now a days, this one felt different.
"Look what your brother did to the door!"
"If I have any more fun I don't think I'll be able to take it!"
"Nam flashback, nam flashback!!"
I watched the Nightmare on Elm Street remake, Jackie Earl Haley was the best part of that movie.<3
I feel perhaps I need more hobbies.:/ I want to do a free art raffle some time, but I need to finish more commissions. I wanted to do a free raffle to celebrate 1000 watchers but I am busy at the moment, I will have to hold a late one when I get more time. I did a free raffle one time for a YCH slot, I enjoyed doing free art for once. It was different and nice compared to occasionally price gouging with certain people... eh better times and better circumstances will come in the future, I can hope.
well I thought I would share the things I have been up to, or haven't. Thanks for everyone's commission patience, I hope you are all well in quarantine and with the virus out there :( stay safe friends, I hope wellness will find us soon.

I can't imagine how frustrated you must feel
Horror is a great hobby as long as it's not fuelling your nightmares? I won't comment beyond that because I don't know what they're about or anything
the group sounds great!
I'm about if you want to chat horror stuff (or anything really)
please hang in there, time's are hard but you're a valuable person
I am very frustrated; I have art I want to do but I have to wait. Everything I draw I can see the noticeable dip in quality, I'm not enjoying it anyways.
No, the horror movies aren't fueling my nightmares. Ironically my brain has deciding having nightmares about my real life is somehow worse than having nightmares about slashers... the irony.
Nightmares usually consist of my mother or sister trying to kill me, or me killing thing. Or pets dying, or dreams about my dead pets. They seem on repeat.
The only new thing is I watched Boardwalk empire and everyone in my recent dreams has been wearing Fadoras and using ak47s. Which I guess would be comical if I wasn't being chased down with said guns.
hell yea horror buddy! none of my friends like horror lmao
what's your fave movies?
Thanks Emerald :') I appreciate your concern *hug* you too fam
