Right now  BunnyMama has two great YCH up for grabs that are perfect for Halloween and the Fall season.
She is an amazing artist. Check out her gallery some time.

She has a YCH that puts your character in a plexiglass cage as a specimen possibly being looked over by scientists.
It's a really neat idea for Halloween. If you have a warped super cool character that is out of the norm this YCH would be perfect.

P.s If no one snatched the specimen one I sure as hell will, because I think it's dope as hell.

The other YCH is a character walking under some changing trees. I think it's super cute. If your character's favorite season is autumn that this one would fit him/her. I like the bright orange/red she made the falling leaves.

Both YCH are reasonably priced and great concepts. Don't dilly dally.

Have a Happy Halloween!!

SOURCE ARTWORK THAT ISN'T YOURS!!!

This is a rant, just so you all know.

IF ITS NOT YOURS, CITE IT! I DON'T CARE IF YOUR NOT CLAIMING IT AS YOURS, YOU ARE STILL USING SOMETHING THAT ISN'T YOURS. WHEN YOU DON'T SOURCE ANY FORM OF ARTWORK IT'S BORDERLINE PLAGIARISM!!

IT ALSO REALLY FUCKING PISSES ME OFF WHEN THE PERSON JUST DOESN'T FUCKING CARE. OF COURSE YOU DON'T CARE, YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO WORK YOUR WHOLE LIFE FOR SOMETHING AND NOT GET ANY RECOGNITION WHEN IT'S FEATURED SOMEWHERE OR HAVING IT STOLEN. YOU DON'T GO TO A DAMN ART MUSEUM AND SEE NO NAMES ON THE ART OR BY THE ART. IN A MOVIE WHEN YOU HEAR A SONG, IT ISN'T NAME LESS. ONCE THE CREDITS STARTS ROLLING THE ARTIST/CREATOR OF THE SONG WILL BE THERE.

GIVE THE ARTIST CREDIT FOR THEIR WORK, IT'S THERE'S THEY DESERVE IT.

ALSO STOP TRYING TO BE AN ANIME CHARACTER!! JUST STOP! YOU ARE NOT THAT CHARACTER, THAT CHARACTER WAS CREATED AND HE/SHE ISN'T YOU. YOU ARE YOUR OWN PERSON. THERE IS NO SHAME IN WANTING TO BE MORE LIKE THAT CHARACTER BECAUSE HE/SHE IS SOMEONE YOU ADMIRE BUT, DON'T LITERALLY ALTER YOUR BODY SO YOU CAN LOOK EXACTLY LIKE THE CHARACTER. AND IF YOUR GOING TO USE THE ART FOR YOUR RP PURPOSES, YOU SHOULD STILL CREDIT THE ARTIST!!! ALSO, DON'T RP IN PUBLIC. RP IS SOMETHING YOU DO IN PRIVATE WITH FRIENDS OR AT A CHAT SITE. NO ONE WANTS TO SEE YOU PRETEND THAT YOU ARE AN ANIME CHARACTER THAT ALREADY EXISTS AND ROLE PLAY AS THEM. YOU JUST LOOK LIKE SOME MIDDLE SCHOOLER WHO DOESN'T KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING.

INSTEAD OF BEING IMMATURE AND SAYING YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU WANT TO SOMEONE WHO IS ASKING YOU TO THE RIGHT THING, WHY DON'T YOU JUST DO THE RIGHT THING?? WHY IS IT SO HARD TO JUST TYPE THE ARTIST?? I DON'T UNDERSTAND, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU KNOW WHO THE ARTIST IS. THE FACT THAT YOU KNOW THE ARTIST AND STILL DON'T CITE MAKES IT LOOK MORE LIKE YOUR STEALING THEIR ART EVEN IF YOU DON'T "CLAIM IT AS YOUR OWN".

IT'S NOT RIGHT!!

CITE ARTWORK THAT YOU POST. CREDIT THE ARTIST. RESPECT THEM AND THEIR WORK.

So I've got a job and I've had it for a while and its a night job. I sleep during the day and work at night. I haven't been able to cook anything properly. It really sucks. My day is wasted by sleep. I wish I had a day job so I can get back to posting awesome recipes. The job is why i haven't posted anything in a really long time.

Thank you for anyone who followed me while I wasn't posting anything.

I'm going to try to post more and hopefully find a job that will be easier on my cooking time and school time.

Hello,
I know it's not me your looking for.
lalalaaaa....

I don't remember how the song goes.

Hey everyfur!!

Guess what!!!??!! is back! She's feeling better now. Better enough to start back on her commissions. If you are already on her list than your commission is the one she is probably working on right now! I'm so happy that my friend is doing better. I was getting worried. But she's here and she's doing well! Commissions are still open! She has all the usual slots open and a NEW COMMISSION TYPE. yup! She's also doing CHIBIS now!! I might have to get myself some. Her chibis are super cute!! Anyways! Please take a look at her gallery and journal. She is an excellent artist and her prices are very good. (whispers: In my opinion they are way to low for the amount of skill she has.)

Here is the journal page. http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/...../#cid:45988372
Please take a read at all the different commission types she's providing! She's an amazing person and i'm so glad she's feeling better.

Hello!
I wrote this story and I posted it but, I don't know how to post literature on here so I'm going to have it in this journal. Please tell me what you think. The assignment was to retell a fairy tale in modern time. I went with Disney's Littler Mermaid.

Modern Little Mermaid Tale:
Star was born with her legs joined together by skin and muscle. Her parents were immigrants with no health insurance. They feared the potential threat of debt and deportation if they allowed the doctor to separate her limbs. Arial grew up using her arms to walk, weather it was dragging her body across the carpet or pushing herself along on her wheelchair. At 10, her parents had officially become US citizens and began applying for health insurance. She longed to walk like the rest of the population in her city. She wanted to be able to dance, jump, run, leap, everything that can be done with legs. Despite her disability she was able to swim, she mastered the mermaid stroke, which earned her the nickname “mermaid” among her acquaintances at the YMCA, school, and friends of her parents. She despised that name. Mermaids were beautiful, majestic, whimsical, and deadly, she wasn’t either of those things. She wasn’t a mermaid. In her eyes she saw herself as disabled; a freak.
Pants weren’t a part of her wardrobe. Star settled for long skirts. She usually had them in various colors and prints. Try to bring brightness into her life as her mother usually said. Star kept her brown hair at a constant 16 inches and never wore make-up. Middle school wasn’t pleasant but then again it’s hell for every teenager in America, the clique forming, bullies ascending, the all-around trying to fit in. For Star middle school was worse than it was for most kids. She was still called “mermaid” but in a mocking tone.
In her sophomore year in high school, Star was 16 and began to save money for the surgery she one day planned to have. She was an exceptional artist, specializing in realism. All those years drawing herself and others with functional legs paid off. With her talent she offered to draw students, teachers, and anything upon request for a fee. She would sometimes sit in her wheelchair with a small sign at the few Farmer’s Markets hosted in her city. In red her sign reads, “Will Draw You in My Style.” There were always a few curious spectators, sometimes to look at her legs and not her art.
Her nickname stayed with her during high school. Whenever she rolled into her classroom or was eating lunch from her lap she would hear it leaving someone’s mouth. “Hey it’s the mermaid,” “How’s it goin’ mermaid?” or “People call you mermaid, right?” were a few ways she would hear that awful nickname aimed at her. Of course high school was better than middle school. She was able to acquire two friends who didn’t look at her as disabled. Sebastian and Franklin; were the only gay boys in her high school. Despite living in a state where gay marriage was legal, they still suffered prejudices from their fellow classmates. They gravitated to Star, seeing as she was different, in a different sense. They were close and enjoyed each other’s company. And what is high school without a few crushes. Star had a crush on a boy named Eric. She was his prince. He wasn’t the quarterback or the soccer ace. He was a G.A.T.E student. He attended extra curriculum classes, along with being the president of the model ships class. Just a dot on the spectrum compared to other students, however, there was no doubt he was one of the best looking guys in her school. What a lot of people didn’t know was he was on a rowing team. The team represented their city and completed in competitions. She discovered this by sitting by the river behind her home. He was practicing his rowing with two other boys. She waits by the river at the same spot every day with her homework, a book, or with Sebastian and Franklin.
One day in her Junior year, she was waiting at her usual spot by the river. It had been raining for the past week and the river had risen. She was sketching herself running along a beach side in a one piece. The sketch was rough. Eric rowed into sight. He only noticed her sitting there a handful of times. He didn’t notice her this time. Her heart pounded in her chest and the butterflies in her stomach fluttered out of their cocoons. He was alone. She watched tie rope to some weights. Star inched forward; she wanted to see what he was doing. She never saw him alone. He dangled his legs over the side of his boat and leaned forward. He followed with throwing the weights into the river; the rope attached to the weights was tied to his legs. He was pulled into the water. Star screamed his name. she threw herself off her wheel chair. She splashed forward into the river, after taking off her TOMS. Franticly swimming to the solitary row boat, she couldn’t see through the surface of the murky river. Star took a deep breath and submerged herself into the river. She couldn’t open her eyes in the dirty water. There was thrashing around her, a hand hit her face. Arms extended she felt Eric struggling to free himself. Star’s hands traveled down his body, patting him down for the rope’s grasp. Her air supply was diminishing quickly as she was sure Eric’s was as well. Once the knot at his ankles was found, her hands became her eyes. She could feel the way it was entwined with itself. She started tugging on a piece she felt would loosen the knot. She tugged on it violently. It didn’t work. She pulled on other parts of the knot. Finally she got it loose enough to pry the loop apart. Eric had stopped moving seconds as she finished. Star wrapped her arms around Eric’s chest and pulled him to the surface of the water. She gasped and pulled him to shore. She screamed for help, her voice was cracked with panic. Her vision was impaired by her long hair. Her legs struggled to keep them both afloat. She splashed her arm. Star was desperate to get him to safety. “MA! PA!” She screamed, finding her voice finally. She was able to feel the ground under the water, once closer to the fiver bank she used splashing arm to grab at the dirt. “MA! PA!” she screamed again. She pulled herself and Eric out of the water with one arm. “MAMI!! PAPI!!” she cried.
Eric laid unconscious at her side. She wasn’t certified to preform CPR, but she knew the premise. She listened for his heart beat, it was steady. She put her ears by his mouth and watched if his chest rose up and down. “¿que pasó?” she heard her father say running up. “Pa! Estaba ahogando” she told him. Her father pulled Eric toward him. He performed CPR.
An ambulance came for him. Star and her family followed the vehicle to the hospital. There she met his mother, just his mother. According to his mother, his actions were caused by his father’s death. Eric’s father was a fisherman; he went out to sea for months to bring back large hauls of marine life. He was thrown overboard by a wave and couldn’t be saved until it was too late. Eric’s mother thanked Star and her family.
Eric regularly spoke to her after she rescued him. Their casual talks were off and on. It was almost a dream come true. They continued through the rest of her high school years. Finally at the beginning of her Senior year, Eric obtained a girlfriend. He stopped talking to her by her locker and occasionally walked her to her class. Star came to the conclusion that he didn’t want her because she couldn’t walk. The search for a surgeon protruded her daily life at home. She had saved 784 dollars. She talked to Sebastian and Franklin about finding a female surgeon on craigslist. They told her it was a horrible idea and way to dangerous. Her desperation got the better of her. Star set an appointment with a woman named, Ursula.
After school on a Wednesday, she rode the public bus to an animal hospital. She understood the danger more clearly once she had arrived but, she wanted to walk. She wanted to walk with her family, her friends, and with Eric. She’s waited 17 years. It was time to walk toward the future. She wheeled into the building. No one was in the waiting room or at the front desk. She rang a service bell. A fat woman with white gelled hair emerged. She greeted star with a toothy grin. Ursula led her to a small dark room. “Let’s take some quick x-rays,” Ursula cooed. After the quick shots of radiation, Star was waiting on an operating table. Ursula returned with a face mask and scrubs. She put on rubber gloves and pulled out two needles from a drawer. Star began to feel sleepy. Ursula discarded the two empty needles.
Star’s parents became extremely worried once they realized she hadn’t returned home. Her father called Sebastian and her mother called Franklin. Both boys told them of what star was planning and that she was able to find a surgeon, they just didn’t know where at. Star’s mother being the more tech savvy one, looked at Star’s browser history and e-mails. She was able to obtain an address while her husband called 911. They took off to get their daughter back.
Eric’s mother was a patrol officer and was the first one at the scene. Star was still under anesthesia. Ursula had separated her legs rather professionally but, had removed one of Star’s kidneys. Ursula was wanted for arrest.
Star awoke at a hospital with her parents sobbing at her side. They were relieved to see her awake and well but, that didn’t stop them from yelling and lecturing her. A nurse got wind of their commotion and sent in Star’s doctor. He calmed down her parents and spoke to her about her actions. Tears dripped from Star’s brown eyes. They glittered with regret and pain. The doctor explained that her legs were successfully separated but would need to be re-stitched.
After a day from her second surgery Star was told to give a description of Ursula. Her arrest occurred when Eric saw her slinking around inside a wal-mart. He had seen the sketch from her mother. He quickly informed his mother through text, she was in another isle. Eric had kept a close eye on Ursula and when she got wind of him watching her she was able to run. Eric held onto her arm until his mother showed up and arrested her. She was trailed and sentenced to prison. Star was going to physical therapy and was slowly gaining the ability to walk. Eric began to speak with her again. It turns out her rival for Eric’s affection was using him for her own educational gain.
A week from graduation day, Eric asked Star on a date. It was a romantic date on his new row boat at the river she saved him from. He explained to her how stupid he felt for his actions and how he never noticed her as a potential partner in life. Star could only smile and tell him the truth. She’s always dreamt about him as her prince. They shared a kiss.
Kisa will forever have scars down her legs. Those scars didn’t matter. They didn’t remind her of her lost kidney. The scars singled her new found happiness.

The End

Hello all you furries!

I just discovered one of the many amazing artists is a one piece fan just like me! yay!
The artist is  Laphund she is currently looking for a new home for her bon-chan figure. Bon-chan aka Mr.2 aka Bon Clay. heheh He is in great condition and the price is a steal. Most one piece figures are pricey do to the amount of detail put into them. Here is her journal -->http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/...../#cid:44677078
If you have the extra cash and love one piece and Bon-chan is one of your favorite characters then consider it.

Thanks for reading!

Stay furry! ;)

So, Yesterday was my first day of school here in Portland. I had a really good time in class and exploring the area around the school. I love the school's location!! There is available parking right in front of the school and underneath the school. There are more parking spots a few blocks away. The pricing isn't so bad either for the parking. There are very nice clothing stores around the school (not that i'll be buying) but it's awesome to window shop. There is also a huge park behind the school with a beautiful elephant sculpture. Next time I go, I'll make sure to take a picture and post it. I'm not of drinking age yet but when I am there will be about 3 pubs/breweries available to me after school. heheheh I probably will never go but they are there and that's pretty bitchin. The area of the campus is super clean too!! There is no homeless or nasty piss fountain. There is a Chase right behind my school which is great for me. My bank is chase so now I won't have to use a atm that charges you. whooa! Another thing that is right behind the school is Whole Foods!! I love whole foods and it's a great place to grab lunch. I was so hungry when I first got to the school and I piled all kinds of different things in a take out box to devour in class. The final thing that I discovered by the school is a massive 3 story book store!! I can't wait to explore it. It's massive and as I was looking in, I saw a huge section of manga. heehee I'm going to love it here.

I can't wait to explore more about the area.

This is my last weekend out of school. Coming this Monday, I'll be attending the International Cooking School of Portland. I'm very excited. The Art Institute here in Portland is really big and it's in a much better location then the one in San Francisco. I hope I can make new friends at my new school. I also plan on joining the culinary club. The culinary club is ran by fellow students and teachers. I'm hoping to learn more through the club and make connections.

Happy New Years Everyone!! It's now 2015. It's been a good year and now it's time for the next. I wish everyone a good year.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!

I'm loving it in Oregon. I took a look at the AI Portland campus yesterday, it's beautiful. It's way bigger than the campus in SF and it has a second building that is just strictly for the culinary department. Culinary has their own building!! It's so awesome. I get a tour of the building on the 27th, so I can't wait for that.

Right now I'm studying for my Oregon Drivers License. I hope I get it soon so I can be an official Oregonian. And once I have my license I can go on to save money for a concealed weapon permit. I would always carrying a pocket knife with me in SF because everyone looked so sketchy. Once I have my permit I can conceal more than a knife to protect myself. It's a scary world out there and with horrible rape culture still alive it's even more scary.

My sister's dog, Odin started to sleep in my room and I love it. He is such a sweet dog. I think when I move out I might take him with me. My little sister is starting to slack off on her duties of taking care of him. I'm picking up the slack so my mom won't return him. She was telling me she was considering it because my lil sis and step-bro aren't following through with their responsibilities. I'm not going to let this precious dog be abandoned. Not on my watch!!

Holiday Greetings to everyone!!

I just wanted to let everyone know that I moved to Oregon just a couple days ago. Me and my fiance have been planning to move but the actual move was so sudden. We had planned to move at the end of this month but instead my father decided the best time was the present. So, now I'm living in Oregon. It's beautiful here. I can't wait to get back to school and finding a nice job. It's good to be with my family here.

SHOUT OUT TO ALL THE OREGON FURS!!

I'm going to miss my hometown, my friends, my father, my in-laws, the food i grew up loving. When I say food I mean restaurants. lol

However, I can't wait to start this new adventure and explore Oregon...mainly Portland since that is where my school is.

Are any of my followers from or in Oregon?!?!?! I hope to go to an Oregon furmeet thanks to meetup.com I can look up when the next on is.

Does anyone know what I should see in Portland first? any good grub to have?

Please note me or comment below. I'd love to learn more about Oregon/Portland and my fellow Oregon Furs.
