Who all remembers me? lol

IM REALLY HOPING THAT IM OUT OF MY ART SLUMP FINALLY... I miss posting things and being involved in this community ;3;

Hello everyone! Sorry I haven't been very active the past couple months. A lot of things have been going on in my life. Among other things, I'm moving out of my parent's house [for the second time :P ] this weekend! It's going to take some time to get settled, but once I am, I will be in a better place [mentally and physically] to hopefully poop out art on a more regular basis! However, I will not have internet at the new place until probably the beginning of next month.

I'm so excited. We're gonna have a whole extra room for computers n musical equipment n stuff. c:

I took like a month-long hiatus from [most] of the internet unintentionally o: But I guess I'm back now. I just spent like 2 hours going through thousands of submissions lol.

1. Above anything else, if you could donate to my friend's gofundme, it would mean the world to me. http://www.gofundme.com/ug887ug

2. I love art! Art from you, art commissioned from someone else, just ART!!

3. Specifically, I'd LOVE some art from  facerot

4. You could commission me, that'd be a win on both sides ;]


I can't think of anything else at the moment :P If anyone is going to furlandia next weekend, say hi to me!

What would make you more interested in joining my stream? I'm really not trying to be sarcastic or anything, it's a legitimate question. I've tried several different things to get people interested, yet I'm lucky if I have one viewer that isn't one of my skype buddies. I'd like to know if you guys have any suggestions as to what would make my stream more enjoyable o:

I don't feel like going into detail, so I'll keep this short.

Moved back in with parents (UUUGGGH) saving money to move out again ASAP

I will be going to Furlandia! Haven't registered yet, but I got the days off approved.

Hours are picking up at my work (yay more money, boo less lazy time)

Lastly, my cousin  Noctus-Nox and I are gonna make fursuits together! I will be tracking and updating my progress in this journal http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/6557484/ . When I actually start construction, my Twitter https://twitter.com/thetrash_can will probably be the best place to find up to date pictures. Here's a rough idea of the design so far http://i.gyazo.com/28d25e375ececda4.....ce4c7d47e7.png

This is mostly for me, so I can visualize my goal. I wanna make a fursuit!

-$100-Eagle Mask Blank from FreakHound http://freakhoundstudios.com/new-products/
-$30-DVC Handpaw Pads https://www.etsy.com/listing/176151.....home_active_17 on its way
-~$15-DVC Claws https://www.etsy.com/listing/176123.....home_active_21 on its way
-$10-DVC Fat Dragon Tongue https://www.etsy.com/listing/176208....._home_active_3 on its way
-~$25-Custom Eyes by Yeep http://yeepcostumes.com/parts/
-~$15-EL Wire and Inverter Kit http://www.elwirepros.com/
-$15-Balaclava http://fursuitsupplies.com/index.ph.....;product_id=59

I'm not listing fur/foam/etc because I haven't really finalized the design. Will update when I know what I want

I just woke up, so I'm gonna eat something, maybe shower, and then I'll start streaming!

I have never been this desperate for cash... Our last month's rent is due on Monday. The lease is up after next month so I don't have another one to worry about. But my share of the rent is $270, and I have... $30. I don't get paid again until next Friday, which is too late...

So as the title says, I will be streaming commissions all day Sunday! I'm open for anything! It's pretty much all PWYW, except for the Lava Lamp Icons, which are $15. I'll post a flier for this event a little later today, and then a streaming notice on Sunday.

Please pass this around! I don't know what else I'm going to do. My work has severely cut my hours, and I'm basically not making enough at it to live.

Thank you for your time, and for those of us not watching the football game, I hope to see you Sunday!

Just needed to bump that other journal out of the way :X

I don't care if anyone reads this or not, it's just one of those shitty journals where someone complains about their life. I feel like I literally can't do anything right. I'm not making enough money, I can't get myself to do stupid every day shit like take care of myself because just existing drains all my energy. I make people around me miserable. I can't even gather the energy to take care of the animals I have like I should, which makes me feel even worse. Oh and now I have to get rid of them [again] and apparently it's %100 my responsibility to make sure shit happens even though we agreed responsibility was going to be shared. Then I hear "stop feeling sorry for yourself, those are all things you can fix, if it really bothered you you would deal with it." That is so not how it works, but y'know, thank you for adding to the list of things I can't get right. I'm so done with everything, and I have nowhere to go. I can honestly say that I've never felt this out of place and alone.

I dunno if it's sad or not, but the biggest thing I looked forward to this past year was RF, and now that it's over... I have to wait another year for it again! XD

This year was a blast. Fursuiting is fun, like, damn. But it's a lot of hard work XD

I actually danced pretty hard. Well, more like flailed around to a beat lol

Went to karaoke, which was pretty fun! Definitely going again next time.

We also went to Pike Place Market for a few hours before closing ceremonies. Mmmm that fresh fishy smell! There was a dude with a very talented African Gray at a street corner performing for the public. That alone was worth the trip into Seattle haha.

On the trip home we listened to the CD's we bought from Fox Amoore and Pepper Coyote. I love both of the albums we bought :D

That's basically my RF recap. I'm not so good at writing paragraphs about what happened lol but man it was a good time.

If anyone wants to know what I'm up to, I will be pretty much tweeting the whole weekend at Rainfurrest! Follow me thetrash_can for spoosty updates! C:

(pictures coming soon) Also you can look at this neat schedule thing and see the different events I am likely to attend: https://rf2014.sched.org/Spoosty?if.....es&bg=dark

Pretty excited for this year! I've never suited before :D

Not that it matters, but I just realized I forgot to change my age on my profile haha. Updating that now

Soooooo excited!!! Anyone else going?

Lately, but today especially, I've just been feeling... good. Maybe I'm optimistic, maybe it's because I'm happy it's shorts and tanktop weather finally, maybe I'm just excited for upcoming events, but I've been feeling happy.

Today I decided that I'm gonna fix up our little back patio so I can sit out there and read, write, listen to music, whatever I want. Also I'm gonna craft a little net/aviary to close off the patio so I can let Beepers fly around out there and get some fresh air every once in a while. I think he'd enjoy it c: And so would I.

I've been feeling very creative lately. I used to write stories quite often in high school, none of them finished of course, so I picked up my old notebooks from my parent's house. Hopefully I'll be able to get myself to write! Also, finally gotten myself to read a book for the first time in like a year, maybe even two (besides re-reading a book I've already read). I highly recommend y'all to pick up a copy of Raptor Red. B)


BIRTHDAY--
I will officially be a full grown-ass adult (haha maybe not really) on June 3rd! AKA I'm turning 21. It's the first birthday I've actually been excited about in years. Gon' get cronk in the club wit my homies. am I cool yet

Thus ends this edition of S.L.U. (Spoosty Life Updates). Thanks for tuning in!

Not like it's that important, but it's almost 3am and I wanted to tell you guys I changed my Tumblr url

http://thetrash-can.tumblr.com/

I can't believe it wasn't a taken url haha I'm thinking about using this name for things like livestream accounts and twitter n' stuff

Well, apartment life has its ups and downs. It's mostly enjoyable though =]

I got a babby birb! http://www.furaffinity.net/view/13075779/ I love him soooo much

SO, since I am out on my own, I'm always in need of a few extra bucks. I was thinking of opening commissions maybe? Here are a few example things I could do

I have no idea what to charge though. What do you guys think? Are you interested? I'd love to hear [read] your opinions!

My boyfrand, his brother and I got an apartment! Move-in date is the 12th, and we are all nervous and excited!Just adrfhujtregszdn I can't wait! We have most things figured out, like furniture and such. And transportation, and bills, yada yada.

I CAN'T WAIT TO GET AWAY FROM MY PARENTS

Not even this, I guess.

Like, seriously people? All this stupid drama. I HIGHLY DOUBT any of you are witnesses to any sort of actual crime (screenshots of conversations and sources like encyclopedia dramatica do NOT COUNT, those are the INTERNET and you SHOULDN'T BELIEVE ANYTHING ON IT), and whether the person in question is guilty or not of these accusations, whining about him being on the mod team is going to do literally nothing. I don't know any more than a lot of you know about it, and it's none of my business anyway. I stay on FA (and other websites, for that matter) for the community, my decision is not in any way influenced by who is/isn't on the mod team.
(please note: I am not defending this person, I am not accusing this person, I do not know him or anything about him, I am just stating logical fact)

As far as "project Phoenix" goes, a lot of 'yall are being real assholes about it. How would you feel if people were CONSTANTLY criticizing you for not doing something, and finally you go to do it, and people STILL CRITICIZE YOU saying "bullshit this is garbage it will never happen you suck." Come on. Do you think anything will happen EVER if you all have that kind of attitude? I dunno about you, but that would discourage me from ever attempting anything ever again.

I'm sorry if this post annoys any of you, I was just feeling passionate and bored and wanted to voice my opinion about this situation.
