I'd love to do a collab with someone~. Note me for details~.

I've always wanted to do one of those journals where people comment questions and I draw my answers. So shoot away! ;D

.. But I might not do everyone, depending on how many people comment. ; ___;

Um.. Share the word? o w o

I thought I'd share this video for those who may not have seen it. ; v ; It's so cute.
It's about a boy and his friendship with his pup~.

It's come down to this. ; v ;
As of late, one of my friends has been just showering me with gifts.
I really want to get something for her, but I don't have the cash right now. ; v ;

So I'm going to ask for donations. > A <; ; v ;
Erm, I've never done this before, but my goal is to get thirty-five dollars.
I am willing to do commissions as well to get this. ; v ;
Full color, full body, TO HELL. I'M WILLING TO TRY ANTHRO. ; A ; OTL

For those of you waiting for sketches, right now, this is my main priority. If a person has donated and asks for a piece of art, I will work on it ASAP.

; v ; Thank you for taking the time to read this.

My goal: 35$

These things in so society, the things that don't even cross our minds as we laugh with our friends. Because we are fortunate enough to not know the kind of things that really exist out there. I feel like I understand how secluded I have made myself from reality, when I really don't understand anything at all.
Last night while I was searching Mangafox.com, a particular manga caught my attention. "Confidential Confessions" was the title. It was about the modern problems that so many teens face, and so many more don't even think about. Drugs, bullying, suicide. prostitution, sexual harassment, abuse, homosexuality, and love. We look down on those things. And even if we tell ourselves; "There's no way that's going to happen to us." How do we truly know it won't? And I began searching it online. Teens don't realize how often it happens. It could be happening to our friends, and we don't do a thing because we are afraid. Of all the things I have read, fear was the only thing that stopped them from coming forward.
Sometimes I find myself, with a paper and a pencil with me, wishing I could be really cool or pretty. I'm not afraid to admit that my self-esteem is pretty low. And I have been a target for bullying because of that. I used to get picked on in school a lot. Once to a point I transferred to a different middle school. Nothing changed. I was still picked on because I was short, and my skin condition, and for the things I liked. The majority, 98% of the people who bullied me where men. And I became, even now I admit I am very untrusting or a bit more violent towards boys. Even my friends. I know I am more protective of my female friends, I am very aware of it.

But I also know that not all men are mean or abusive.

Jorge, my boyfriend. At first, when I met him I didn't trust him and I disliked how he would vanish from chats when fights broke out. Cowardly, I thought. But time shifted and we became grandfather/granddaughter to Father/daughter and eventually, when our role play family parted, best friends. And he still is my best friend.
I have friends who are Lesbian and bi. And they are as normal as any other person. I myself am bi. And I am not afraid to admit it. I hold hands with my friends as we go about school. So what? What is so wrong with loving someone? Love, all the "straight" people out there, I've seen you write status' saying love is everything and it's wonderful and beautiful, but in school I hear some of you say that bi and gay and lesbian and transsexuals are disgusting. Didn't you say love was wonderful? Why should you be able to enjoy it while bi, gay, transsexuals, and lesbians can't?

Love is love in my eyes. Gender is completely /irrelevant/.

Drugs and prostitution, something that usually comes hand in hand, but not always together. I can't really say much of that for myself. I haven't experienced it, and I'm very grateful I haven't. But I want to reach out to those who have. And maybe get to know them. I don't think anyone is born "dirty" or "defiled".

We are born as human beings.

Suicide. Bullying and abuse are usually tied with this topic. But loneliness and sadness, they are the reasons for it. As I stated before, if you haven't already read it, I have been bullied. And I have thought of suicide. But bullying wasn't the only thing that made me consider death. But it was my step father. It's not like he would sexually harass me, though I have a few thoughts he has done that before, but abuse. The one who is on the receiving end is the one who decides whether it is abuse or not. My step father locked me in a car for hours, summer or winter, with the window cracked open because he would gamble. Unable to take children into the bar or casino, but needing them to be in reach in case my mother called, he had no other choices. Right?
Wrong. He could have chosen not to gamble. To cheat on my mother. He no longer lives with us. Because I came forward. He had no job. He didn't take care of my sister and I. He could even pick me up from my middle school because he wanted to sleep. He made my mom cry, my sister too. I hated going home because I didn't want to be alone with him. Praying we'd go to families houses, praying school wouldn't end, that summer wouldn't come. Why should humans ever have to go through living like that? I I hadn't come forward, I have no doubt in my mind he would still be here, I would still be looking at that knife in the kitchen, and my family would be in chaos.
But this is just my opinion. It doesn't imply to everyone. But I think that we dont do these things just to do them for fun, but because of the people around us. The world can't be perfect, but we can't always pretend it is. And these things that we look down upon are more powerful and rule our lives more than anything else. And it's solider, our fear is the only thing stopping us from coming forward. None of these things are minor, none of these things are stupid. Stepping forward is the only way to free ourselves. And I know myself it isn't that easy. And I didn't even get the worse of it. What I went through was probably not even a small fraction of what some others go through. Everyday. And yet. And yet it was harder than anything else I had ever done, more scary than anything I had ever faced. If what I went through was that hard, Its unfathomable to think how hard it will be for others. But I won't look down on these things anymore. I'll think about them everyday, and help anyway I can. Because the things we look down upon are real. And they stand above all of us until we step forward.

Traditional Sketches.
I really need to practice. @ u @
Free, of course.
I can't draw anthros, so your characters will be drawn as kemonos, with the markings drawn as tattoos. ; n ; I hope that's alright.

Requirements:
Make a journal linking to this one~.

I'm not that good at drawings guys. D8 So uh.. Males, request at your own risk.

EDIT:
I will be drawing as many as I can, but if I feel I can't draw yours well, it will probably be done as a chibi.

WARNING:
All drawings will be done with the characters in underwear, or at least covering their.. "Parts". o_o;

I cannot see pictures/refs rated Mature.

ANOTHER EDIT: This one is kind of important!
I notice a lot of people are watching me through this journal to go along with their request. Watching me is perfectly fine, great even! But only if you guys are watching me because you actually like my art. It makes me sad when I think people watch me for other reasons. :C
Thank you guys for all the support you are all giving me, it means a lot. But if you guys are watching me for other reasons besides liking my art, please unwatch me. Watches mean a lot to me because it lets me know that other people appreciate my art. It lets me know that my art is improving.
Thanks guys.~

My suddenly vanish. I probably will. @__@
Apologies in advance.

Hey guys, I'm sorry I haven't been on lately. My aunts here HATE me online. > A >;;
No more digital arts until I save to get a tablet, phooy.
Anyway, I'll be posting some traditional art now. Provided I scan them.
They've kinda been piling up. >___>;;;;
I look forward to sharing my art with you guys once more~! Thank you all who have still watched me despite my long absence.

Sincerely, Yui~.

Well, my tablet anyway.

I just moved.

So I won't be uploading much art at all.

To those whos request I've accepted, apologies, for I probably won't be able to do them anymore.

I left my tablet at home with my sister,  harukifoxtrot, so you guys should check out her art instead.

Hey guys, just wanted to say that I'm taking a few requests.

I'm mostly looking for girls to draw. And girl couples.

It won't be anthro, but kemonomimi/anime.

So, showing me a ref that has hair would be wonderful. Or you can let me choose a hairstyle. o u o

I'm just looking to be inspired.

If you show me an anthro that doesn't have clothes, I'll probably design something. Just fyi.

I won't draw mature. I'm underage.

And I won't be drawing everyone. I'll tell you ahead of time if I choose not to do your character.

D: I'm really fickle about what I draw.

Anyway, just comment below your request, if you guys have any,. o u o

So like.. I'm back from vacation.

But I'm moving.

So I won't be uploading much anymore.

That is all.

I'll be away in California for a month, so I won't be uploading anything due to me being away from my precious tablet. ; n;
But! I'll be doodling here and there so when I get back, I'll have plenty of new ideas and adoptables for you guys. o3o

o v o Hello all you people out there.~ Erm.. I guess I should start with my name.
My name is Jennifer, but most people online refer to me as Yui or Sae.
I just recently turned sixteen. > A <; So old.
I really only draw anime, but I'm learning to draw anthro.

To start me out, I'm gonna try to sell CG headshots for two dollars.

I'm an artist, so although I am not a furry, I'm trying to widen my artistic abilities.

> A < That's all I have to say for now? I'll make a new entry if I think of anything else to say.
