- MIGRATING TO WEASYL PERMANENTLY -
Posted 11 years agoHello to everyone!
This isn't gonna be an overblown journal about how much I hate FA now (or I have for a while), I just think it's best to tell you all that I've been way more active over on Weasyl.
You can catch my fursuit pics and maybe even some art once I get a device I can finally start arting on :p
http://weasyl.com/user/paprika
Thanks for the memories FA!
I will no longer be updating this gallery but you may occasionally see my info change to keep it somewhat up to date, as I hate having a frozen profile that isn't actually frozen. :p
This journal will stay in place as a placeholder to let people know where I am.
Thank you watchers! I'm always surprised at how many I have for how inactive I am here. Love you all and see you on Weasyl!

Hey there!
My name is Prika and I'm currently participating in #Sweatember, which is by http://blogilates.com and hosted by http://DietBet.com. It just started, but it's really fun!
Here's the deal: you place a bet ($25-????) that you can lose 4% of your bodyweight in 28 days. That means, if you weigh 150 lbs, you must lose 6 lbs in 4 weeks - that's about 1.5 lbs a week, completely healthy weight loss. If you're 200 lbs, that's 8 lbs, or 2 lbs a week.
It's completely doable with a regimen of healthy diet and exercise - and generally, the more you have to lose, the quicker it will fall off with dutiful tracking!
I wanna start a furry game! I know there are plenty of you out there who are interested in starting to lose weight, and financial motivation is one of the BEST motivators out there! By putting money down on you losing the weight, you are far more likely to actually get yourself into the gym and start tracking your food intake. DietBet even has an app you can have on your phone for daily motivation, with a wall that we can talk to each other on! :)
You will at LEAST win your money back if you lose the 4% -- not to mention, feel great for hitting your goal!
It's a game where it's YOU vs the SCALE. At the beginning and the end of the 4 weeks, DietBet's referees will make sure that the pictures of the scales are correct and verify the winners. If you WIN, you get a piece of the pot! So don't worry, you're not competing against anyone but yourself.
Disclaimer: I know the scale isn't the all important indicator of health, but this is just one way to motivate people to eat healthier, exercise, and to shed fat.
It can ALSO BE DANGEROUS if you:
- Have an eating disorder
- Cannot stand to LOSE the cash that you MAY LOSE
- Do not have enough weight to lose
- Are obsessive about the scale in general
Please DO NOT participate if you are part of these groups. I'm sorry, I just don't want to see anyone get hurt.
But if you DO have about 4% of your bodyweight to lose -- or more -- then PLEASE, join up. I'd like to start the game on Sept 23, and the buy in will be $25.

gallery clean out! + mff roll call?
Posted 12 years agowent through and deleted a whole bunch of submissions that were not relevant/brought back bad memories, and moved a lot over to scraps, too.
this gallery really needed a clean-up to reflect my life now!
here's to hoping i'm a little bit more active (submission-wise) soon. i've got some commissioned art in the pipelines (like i usually do), but maybe even I'll even produce some art, who knows! i definitely have a couple of costume ideas in the works that i will be getting to as soon as i get home.. :D
which reminds me: my time here in so cal is almost at an end! i'll be leaving august 2 to las vegas, where my mom & stepdad are renewing their wedding vows (awww)! that means i'm missing RMFC but... it's a once in a lifetime thing! i couldn't miss it for the world.
konnerwolf and i should be at RMFC next year... if not, we are likely hitting up a con somewhere elsewhere in the US [along with MFF 2014]! :3
psst, i know it's sorta far but, anyone going to MFF 2013? we are making plans... and it's really exciting! i'm wondering if i will get to meet anyone else there. :D

Feet are slightly big on me, would probably fit Women's Sz 7 - 11.
note: this is a used costume, and shows some wear from being loved - but he was very well taken care of. he will be cleaned and disinfected thoroughly before shipping! the only repair i've ever had to make on this suit was a small claw replaced, plus the nose was reinked with india ink, so it's nice and black and shiny!

just thought i'd throw this out there! i'm looking for 2 roommates in lawrence, ks in august. preferably someone i know! or friends of friends... etc. :3
well, now that that's over ... [upcoming plans]
Posted 13 years agophew! well, that was nuts!
back to the grind...
did tons of travelling and got some shieeet done. saw tons of people and had a wonderful time at fc, whether it was the con's fault or not. i'm pretty sure it's just because i know the best humans in the entire world, and they all congregate in san jose, ca once a year!
that being said, fc is too fucking big. and i dunno if i'll do it next year.... maybe.... who knows! i'm not sure yet! that's way too far in the future!
i'm going to be putting my ~~con list~~ in my journal headers and shit because people like to ask me where i'm going, and my profile header is wayyy too big now with addition of PANDA.
not much else to report except that school started and i'm going to be quietly working on school a ton... or maybe not. haha. i kinda have started running the
kcfur group here in kansas city, and we're having a blast with it! there's even a mardi gras party coming up that i'm running, which i'm really really excited about! hurricanes, jumbalaya, red beans and rice... you really can't go wrong!
i would do shoutouts for fc but i honestly don't even know a lot of people's fa (plus, i know most of you won't read it!) so i've done some shoutouts on people's pages....which I'm STILL not done doing.
i love everyone and hope you guys have an awesome spring! i'm going to be doing some crafting this year (it's my new year's resolution), so maybe expect a few crafty things, and as always, feel free to suggest stuff for me to do, as i've absolutely loved all the creative input i've gotten from everyone.

(Head, feet, tail, arms!)
Feet are slightly big on me, would probably fit Women's Sz 7 - 11.
note: this is a used costume, and shows some wear from being loved - but he was very well taken care of. he will be cleaned and disinfected thoroughly before shipping! the only repair i've ever had to make on this suit was a small claw replaced, plus the nose was reinked with india ink, so it's nice and black and shiny!
