So it's a little past the middle of the semester. but not by much.

Right now all my classes are going more or less alright. Some are better than others, but I'm working to improve that now. I'm about to start working on my very first Android app that isn't from a book. It's one that I have to totally make on my own. I'll go into more detail in a little bit. I'm also working on a project with  crystalryder that I hope to show off soon, so look for that.

I'm still with my mate, and that's going great. He's actually trying to get back into drawing more with his free time because of the some of the pics I've shown him on here. So if anyone has some good links for art tips in general drop them in the comments or a note and I'll give them to him.

Most of my free time now is spent playing Pokemon Black 2. Right now I'm trying to finish up the pokedex, but I'll be starting to do IV/EV training again as soon as I'm finished with that. Feel free to drop me your FC if you want to battle.

Anyway, back to my Android App. I decided to do a homework app called Homework Alert. It will allow the user to place their classes into a schedule, specifying time to and from, what days, and what type of ringer they would prefer during that class. Silent, vibrate, ect and will change to that ringer during class time. Then the user will be able to place a point break down within the class (Tests are 20% ect). The user will then be able to enter homework for that class, specify, a due date, and specify an alarm and if they would like repeating alarms up till the due date. After a homework is turned in and graded, the app will allow the user to put how many points they got and how many points it was worth, and assign it a type of point break down. The app will use this to keep track of your current grade in that class.

Now I only have to do the top 3 use cases of the app in class for the grade. My question to you though is how much would you pay for the app if I were to complete it on my own time and place it in the Google Store?

I'm afraid there would be no iPhone version as Apple requires you to build an iOS app on a Mac computer, which I will not be able to afford for another 3-4 years.

Well that's all I've got for now. Don't be afraid to note me if you think we'd be good friends.

Hey everyone, for once a journal where I'm not apologizing for an absence.

So next semester I'm taking an Android programming class. We're required to make an app on our own as well as an app out of one of our books. Right now though, I am at a complete loss as what app to make. So I am opening up the floor for ideas from you guys. All that the professor requires is a "non-trivial" app so go wild. I may make even more than one for practice over the summer.

Anyway, have at it. I would love to see any idea that you guys have.

He looks pretty good. Go for it.

Anyone want to chat on Skype? My name handle is meical.dragon.

Also summer has started for me, still doing a little bit for school but a lot less homework so I should be getting a story up soon.

Well, it looks like I've gone through another whole semester, and started another without writing a thing. So I'd like to thank all of you who are still watching me after such a long absence.

Right now I'm getting lower and lower on free time. Still working two jobs, and still doing 18.5 credit hours. So my creativity is usually fried by the time I get done with the mounds of homework that pile up in front of me. I'm going to try really hard to get something up by the end of next month.

As usual if you've got an idea, or want me to use your character drop me a line. I'm always up for some inspiration from an outside source. Or even if you just wanna chat, hit me up. Would love to hear in depth comments on my work or criticism you wouldn't want to put in the comments.

Cya later, hopefully within the next month and a half.

Hello my watchers. Hope everyone is doing well as we enter the last few days of the summer season. I guess it's time for a few updates on my life as it currently stands.

I am currently in college as a junior in the Computer Science field, and it's starting to kick my ass. Right now, most of my time is being split between the 18 credit hours I'm taking and the two jobs I'm working to help my parents pay for school. I amazingly still have a steady boyfriend and our 8 months will be coming up on the first of October.

I am also looking into trying to make some extra cash to supplement school, and have some spending money. I am offering story commissions at a flat $5 rate no matter how many characters you want in it, or how many pages it ends up being. I will ask though that you do not berate me on time issues while writing. As I said before I'm doing 18 credit hours and two jobs which will make it difficult to find some free time to write.

I also have experience with C++ and Java programming languages, and I'm also taking a Web Programming class this semester, so I am also open to programming commissions if you need a program to be written. The price of this will vary depending on how complicated the program gets. I will NOT do homework programming assignments. I am willing to help you through it, but I will not write it for you.

That's all I got for now. Notes always welcome, even to just chat.

So, my resolutions went out the window apparently lol. Hopefully you aren't forming a mod as I type this lol. Anyway, I thought now that I'm finished with Spring semester that it would be a good idea to do some life updates and review my resolutions.


1. B's or better in all of my classes.
Now, I go to a difficult school. Our physics department is somewhere in the top 5 hardest of the country. So to me, B's are a good goal in some of these classes. I'm also really bad at math(I'm still in freshmen math while I'm in junior level comp scie classes), and my fall semester will be 12 credit hours of math and one free elective to make up for it.

Well for this one, it turned more into "get a 3.0 by the end of the semester". Now I'm still not sure on this one but I no doubt passed all my classes and got the credit so I am a bit happy with that and that I finally get out of freaking Calculus 1.



2. Have a 1 - 2 stories of my own creation up a month.
I know I've been really neglectful at getting stories up due to my school schedule, and bad boyfriends, but I've found a guy that actually understands furry so I'll be able to get more up in my free time. I'm still open for taking requests as well which will get top priority besides school.

Now I totally dropped the ball on this one and I'll admit it. I had way more homework than I thought I would, and then my family bought a new business that they currently make me work at on Sunday's so a lot of my free time was taken up with that. For the summer, I'm jus going to say that I will write when I can and I'm still accepting ideas from people if they want something written.


3. Workout
I've been REALLY bad at this one. I haven't worked out regularly since the beginning of summer. A few workouts here and there to relieve stress, but nothing serious. This is also my crucial year because apparently my dad's metabolism slowed down around turning 21, and I'll be turning 20 in 4 months. Now his was due probably over 50% to drinking, and I never drink so I'm a bit covered, but still want to be sure to stay fit.

Again dropped the ball on this one. Mostly to do with my lack of time again.


4. Find a job
So my mother and aunt bought a fabric/quilting business and my mother wishes to quit her job within the next year so moth of my tuition money will be gone with that job.

I actually tried at this one, and for some reason it never went through. Kinda sad when I see the job interviewer ever other week too. He said he'd try to get me through next semester and I trust him to do so. As for a summer job, I am trying as well. Other that the family business, I have applied all over. So far only Macey's and Target have responded, and both rejected me, so here's hoping to Walmart.

5. Be the best boyfriend I can be.
So some of you may know that I haven't had all that great of luck with guys. Sometimes it's me, sometimes it's them. As for my resolution, I'll try to be the best I can be and just hope that it gets returned.


Now this was actually directed at my current bf at the time. While I tried, he did, but also didn't. Ultimately, he gave me up to please his mother and get money. Though after this I did meet a really great guy at school and it's coming up on 4 months now on June first. Might also be able to blame him a bit for the lack of time as well.

All in all, they're fairly even in terms of what is done and what isn't. As for summer, working, school, and volunteering will be taking up most of my time. If I have time to be lazy and write I will try but no promises. Anyway, I'm always willing to talk so if you want to get to know my, just drop me a pm, I don't bite.

So I live in Colorado which means mountain time where it just changed over, so Happy New Year!

So it's that time of year again. Time to think about our past year, and what we would want to change in the new year.

1. B's or better in all of my classes.
Now, I go to a difficult school. Our physics department is somewhere in the top 5 hardest of the country. So to me, B's are a good goal in some of these classes. I'm also really bad at math(I'm still in freshmen math while I'm in junior level comp scie classes), and my fall semester will be 12 credit hours of math and one free elective to make up for it.

Well, that's all I got for now. More may pop up as I think about it, but these were the most pressing on my mind.

So I'd like to wish everyone a late Merry Christmas, my bad for not updating before it actually happened lol.

My Christmas was pretty good I'd say. I ate a hell of a lot both Christmas Eve and Christmas day. Christmas Eve my mother made lasagna with her special tomato sauce, along with some great garlic bread, and Olive Garden salad. I managed to eat two piece of lasagna, two pieces of bread, and a plate of salad. Christmas Day I was able to go back for fourths it was so good. My aunt made ham, potatoes, creamed corn, and rolls.

As for presents I really didn't have anything on my list, and the one thing I did I actually didn't get lol. The one specific thing other than giftcards on my list was Pokemon Ranger: Guardian Signs. What I actually got was $25 to Best Buy which I'll be using to get said game, $125 to iTunes which I'm still wondering how I'm gonna spend it all, $100 to Amazon for a thong/Kindle books, a new school hoodie, pj pants, a pair of Oakley sunglasses with a case, and $250 cash. My aunt and her partner made me work for my gift this year with a puzzle box, so I think they'll be getting a scavenger hunt computer program to find their gifts next year. So overall, I'd say it was a good Christmas.

Now I want you guys to tell me how your Christmas was. Also if you have any good apps to recommend to me for my iTouch, please do. I'm just looking at apps right now, maybe music and movies later.

Anyway, Merry late Christmas, and an early Happy New Year.

So, hello to everyone who actually reads these things from me lol. It's been awhile I know. I've been busy with school, and all that as well as a few guys that didn't like the furry stuff so I kind of grew away from it. Well now I'm back and ready for action.

Last semester in school went well I think. My GPA defiantly improved from the semester before, but I still can't seem to pass a certain class. So right now I'm begging to take an exam that will allow me to pass out of this class and into the next one finally. Begging to take an exam... something is wrong with me lol. Anyway, I doubt I'll get a response before Christmas so I'm just enjoying my break now.

In the interim time, I've had one bf, and one potential. The first bf wasn't a furry, but he understood it a bit, I just never had time during school to get on. He broke up with me though because I wasn't his "ideal guy", and ideal meaning perfect pretty much told me he was stupid as there is no perfection in this world. The next guy never wanted to date a furry again so being that I hadn't really been active, I thought it'd be ok, and he pretty much just started to ignore me. Currently I am dating a guy that is kinda like me in the furry aspect. He's a big sweetheart too always telling me how sweet and kind I am despite my protests.

So that's kind of how my life has been the past 6 months. Thanks for reading this update/rant thing lol. I'll be more active from now on.

So, it's been awhile since I've used this, hehe. Anyway, I'm finally out on break, and I can't wait to go back to school. I have tried to apply to at least 15 places for a job in the past 3 weeks and still haven't heard a thing back. I'm getting so bored. Going from 8 hours of class a day + 5 hours of hw on top of that to absolutely nothing is no a very subtle transition. Anyway, trying to get myself back into writing. Currently working on two b-day gifts and a commission. My next semester doesn't look too terribly bad. Classes 9-1 Mon, Wed, Fri, 11-12 Tues, and 9-11 Thurs, only 16 credit hours.

Now, I did decide to make an InkBunny account. I'm liking it so far, and hope to get open myself to more commissions through it. If you want to watch me the link is: http://inkbunny.net/Meical

I finally got a twitter, the address is in my contact me box. I warn you though, when school comes around, expect some bored tweets from class with equations in them, or coding, hehe.

Wow, another year has already gone by, and we arrive again on my b-day. So much has happened, it only feels like its been a few short months. College has definitely consumed most of my life this year. My first semester wasn't bad and I got to hang out with my friends a lot, but second semester has hit me like a ton of bricks, but only four weeks to go. You know it's bad when your friends ask where you've been though face book lol. Personally, I've had my ups and downs this year. Lost my grandma to cancer, had a pretty bad break-up, but things I feel are looking up there. Crushing bad on a pretty amazing guy. Just hope it goes well. I'd also like to apologize for the lack of stories. As I said, college is pretty time consuming, and by the time I do get free time, I'm brain dead. C++ programming takes upwards of 5-6 hours, plus calculus and technical design are big homework hog times. I hope to have a few ideas going by the time I'm done with school in four weeks. Well, that's all I have for now. Thanks to those of you who actually read this lol.

So, I've decided to try and make a bit extra money from my writing (like I'm making any money at all). I'm willing to write anything you like for 3 dollars per story. No extra character costs, or extra per-page cost. Just a flat rate of three dollars per story. Pm me here if you'd like to discuss more.

And no, it's not me (points to the dragon pic to the left). My friend  Williebear87 is planning a trip for him and his mate, and needs money for the trip. He's looking to open commissions to help with paying for the trip. Check him out, and if you like his style, think about throwing a couple bucks his way. Thank you.

So, for the last 5 weeks, I've had a college exam each week, with the 5th coming up on Thursday. It's made my life so busy because I'm either in class from 8-7, doing hw 7-11, or studying 7-11. You know it's bad when friends on campus post on your facebook wondering where you've been. Anyway, trying to get a bit more active now, spring break coming up in a week, which I actually have to study for a chem II exam coming up the week after. (headesk) But, it will not defeat the joy of getting SoulSilver on Sunday.

So, I know it's already Christmas in some parts of the world, so Merry Christmas to you all, and a future Merry Christmas to the people still waiting. Happy Hanukkah, even though I believe this has pasted lol.

My plans are going to the youngest aunt's house tonight for Christmas eve, have a small family Christmas morning (my parents, me, and my mom's dad) then go over to my other aunt's house for Christmas with them and dinner.

My offer does still stand fro free stories, even though I updated my journal. It's also not to late to get me to write a story for that special someone.

Anyway, Happy Holidays everyone, have fun, be safe, and live it up.

So, my last journal was made in the midst of me trying to write my last story, so it was a bit rushed.
The real life issues I had to deal with was my grandma passing away, so I was put out of commission for a few weeks, followed by a rough break up on its heels, which threw me out even farther. Not to mention school, and outside school activities have been time suckers. This week brings up finals though, and then a blissful three and a half weeks off.
During that time, I'm hoping to put together an epic story. I'm thinking adventure-ish (Everquest, FF kind of thing), and I desperately need characters for this story. If you would like to have your character featured just tell me the bio, whether you'd just like a cameo appearance, or to be part of a temporary party, and if you can yiff. I will have 6 main characters to begin with that I will think up, and will lose and gain some as time goes on. There will be yiff (as its the only way I'll get anyone to read it), but both gay and straight. If you're willing to participate, just do as said above. I will choose randomly from the characters as I need them, but I will keep a list updated with upcoming characters on here and Yiffstar, so you will know when your character is about to participate.
Now, I'm also hoping to put together a few stories I can show off for other people for art trades and such, so if you'd like a one off, now's your chance. I'm also up for writing up short stories for any art you'd like to have a little background on. Just note me, and we'll discuss what you want your story to be about. This offer will end as soon as my journal is updated next.
That's all for now. Cya.

So, I know I've kinda disappeared off the face of the Earth. School has made me really busy, and I've had some real life issues to deal with, and hasn't left much time for FA. Winter break is coming up though this week, so a blissful break. I promise to try and write more for you guys, and I hope to have another story up by sometime before I go to bed (I'm on mountain time). This new story won't be about Meical and Junfu, just Meical. Hope you guys will like it.

Repost this with the title:
I've Done __ of the 120 stupidest things. (with your total in that blank spot.)

I've participated in three might as well go for it. Ask my your naughty questions. \

Gotten from  MuscleSexyLion

I'm back, and kinda tired lol. YEah, sorry I didn't warm everyone, not enough time to write a journal lol. You do a lot of things on a cruise. Not to mention the boring days at sea. We stopped in Juneau, Skagway, Ketchikan, and Victoria. Lots of jewelry stores, lots of freaking jewelry stores. I did get a couple of ear studs though, so not to bad. I did the dog sledding tour while in Juneau, and a wildlife trip in Ketchikan. I'll get some pics up soon. Ok, now to tackle the stocked submissions.

So I went to see The Unborn today. Overall I thought it was an OK horror movie. I'd say that the gross parts outweighed the creepy parts, but It managed to make me jump slightly a few times. The usual "everyone around the main character has to die" Theme is very pronounced in this film. So, if you're a fan of horror movies, I'd check it out.
