Supper's Ready by Genesis

Two things will happen when you listen to this song.

1)The song will totally annoy you but...

2)If you're like me and love psychedelic/progressive rock epics then hopefully you will be amazed.

As side note I listen to this song every time I run on the treadmill.

Resolutions for 2016:
-Get a job
-Decide on a major
-Start and maintain an exercise routine
-Be more active socially
-Start back up drawing
-Maybe start writing/typing furry stories (I've had some ideas on the back burner)

There are probably some that I am forgetting, and some of the things I listed are not as important as others. I hope to maintain most of them throughout the year.

As for a look back at 2015, there were some ups and downs, but for the most part it was a good year.

Hope everyone has a great 2016 :)

Today Shiver Jaw turned 4. yay :P

The day when my life outside of my room will stop because Fallout 4.

On wedseday I plan on asking a girl that I've know for a while, 6years, at her graduation party. Got any advice? I know she's single because her and her now ex boyfriend had a falling out and now I think it would be a good time to take my chance and see if she will say yes. The worst that could happen is that she could say no. My plan is to text her tomorrow and ask if I could help with the setting up of her graduation party ( I only live a mile from the place that she's having it at ) if she says yes than this would be the best time for me to ask her. If she says no to my help than I will have to find a good time when she's alone at the graduation party to ask her because it might not be good to ask when other people are around because she is very shy. I was mainly going to ask her if she would like to get a bite to eat or go see a movie sometime, if she says yes than hopefully she will see that I'm interested in her and maybe we could start texting each other or something. If it works out than I will probly post another journal and if it doesn't then I will probly delete this one and kill my self ( jk about killing my self ). So if yaw have any advice please post a comment.

Trying out the new beta UI, and can I say that so far I like what I see. Let's hope they can improve it for better mobile usage. I would also like to see more individual user page customization.

Today( Oct 12 ) is my birthday, I turned 19 and I got an xbox one w/ NBA 2K15.

Well time to go back to school, and I have to say that I have not been this happy to go back to school in a long time. I don't know what it is, maybe it's because it's my last year in grade school or maybe it's because my best friend is coming back this year, I truly don't know why I'm this happy *shrugs shoulders*. Anyway I know a lot of people say that they're going to try their best, but I really mean it when I say not only do I want to be a straight A student, but I want to be the best in my grade. I cannot what for tomorrow and I hope everyone that is going back to school is just as excited as I am. Another thing cool I just did, I just got back from open house and even though I'm in my senior year of HS, my home room teacher gives me this sheet that tells me to put my name on it, it ask what I did this summer, ect. The cool thing was it ask's for you to draw a self portrait, so instead of doing what everyone else is going to do, I drew my furry character :3 and I can't see what my teacher says. Well good luck to everyone and I hope you all have a great school year.

Today is Shiver Jaw's birthday, today three years ago I needed a new fursona so I came up with the idea for Shiver Jaw. So Shiver Jaw just turned three today yay :D. Now shower me with gifts (just kidding)!

Just like the title says my fursona, Shiver Jaw, will be turning 3 this coming July 11. I'm so excited, I even got a new avatar pic! The avatar pic was done by  Dolar go check him out.

I don't know how many people actually read my journals but I'm going straight to the point with this one. I have been wanting a new icon for about the past 6 months now but i don't have the money or the skill to draw one digitally. So what I'm asking is that if someone is willing to draw a icon for free (I was looking for something that looks looked this http://www.furaffinity.net/view/13729148/) please pm me or post a comment on this journal. I hate asking for free stuff but I would be very thankful if someone did draw me a new icon. :P

Well I'm going to Tybee Island in GA, I have never been there so I hope it fun :D

Twitch Plays Pokemon (TPP) is a game of pokemon (red) that has been going on for 8 days and doesn't look like it will come to an end anytime soon. So I highly recommend that you go check it out. The premise of TPP is there is a livestream going on w/ 80,000+ watching, here's the twist, there's a chat box and in this chat box you can type a button and the button you enter (ex. up, down, left, right, start, a, and b) will tell the game what to do. Also there is around 20,000 people trying to play the same game at the same time and as a result has lead to some funny conclusions.

Here's the link to watch it http://www.twitch.tv/twitchplayspokemon

I'm going on a art hiatus until this spring, main reason is because of school.

I don't know why but for some reason I have been feeling pretty melancholy the last couple of days. I think it may be from a lack of sleep but I'm not sure. I was going to revise my ref sheet the other day, I even sat down with my graphics pad but I quickly lost interest in drawing that day. Hopefully I can draw some tomorrow and that might make me feel better, I was thinking of drawing a Game Grumps face like they have on their logo but furry style. I was also thinking of drawing  smittywolf one, maybe giving some free gift art out might make me feel better too.

Tomorrow I have decided to update(or at least get started on) my ref sheet for the last time for hopefully a while. The reason being is that due to a recent misunderstanding/error with some gift art I was given, on my ref sheet my chest is a dark brown but in the gift art my chest is black. Although I do prefer the black chest and have decided to change my chest color to black.

Thanks to  smittywolf for the gift art and  furscribbles for drawing it.

Also one last thing, I got a graphics pad and I really need to get use to it, so for starters I'm looking for suggestions on something SIMPLE to draw, but not to simple if you catch my drift. I'm going to start there because I have tried to draw furries with it but I'm going to need a lot(and I mean a lot) more practice with it before I move on to the more advance stuff. Plus I still need to learn on how to use GIMP since I can't afford Photoshop. So if anyone has a suggestion on were to find simple GIMP tuts, please send me a link. :)

If you live in the upstate of South Carolina this page is for you! http://www.furaffinity.net/user/upstatescfurs/

Let's start by saying that 2013 has been one of the best years of my life.

At the very beginning of the year I made two New Year resolutions, 1st I wanted to become a nicer person and not so bitter towards everyone else, 2nd I wanted to become more active in the furry fandom. I don't really remember much up till late spring, early summer I went to Edisto Beach, SC for vacation. There I had a great time walking on the beach, watching the NBA finals, and playing Skyrim on a very tiny SD tv. Then all through summer break I play video games with friends, look at the computer, and watch tv. Before I knew it the summer had blew by and it was time to start back up school, then I found out that my best-friend would not be attending the same school this year, that made me very :( but I had other friends. The school year started out just like every other year, the first week is great because you get to see people you haven't seen in a while, there are no tests, quiz's, and/or homework, then after the first week school starts to suck. By this time (mid-fall) I was becoming more predominate on Twitter, on there I set myself some goals, 500+ tweets, follow 500+ people, and have 100+ followers. I broke all those within a week thanks to the many furries that are on Twitter. Later in the fall I revealed to a lot of my friends that I am a furry, and of course none of them knew what a furry was, so that was a fun time trying to explain to ten different people what a furry is, and eventually I just gave up. Around this time I had also felt the need to finally tell my parents that I'm a furry. Long story short, I got the courage to tell my mom, her reaction was positive to the point that she even said that she might won't to go to a furry convention with me, she then preceded to tell my dad who was also completely fine with me being a furry. Finally close to the year while doing my daily check up on FA, I saw that I had a new watcher (which is rare) and a note, the note was from this guy named Smittywolf, and it was a statement about being a Christian in the furry fandom (which I had gotten a comment recently from someone else that was pretty much saying the same thing). I responded, but there was something different about this guy so I preceded to ask him a few questions and he answered, he then ask me a few questions and I answered, next thing I know I have my first true friend in the furry fandom. Him and I have become best buds, I think lol, and have even planned to have a meet up, it will be the first time we have meet a in real life, plus it will be the first time I have met a furry in real life and the same for him. I had a great Christmas this year and also got to see my favorite NFL team, the Carolina Panthers clinch a playoff spot for the first time since 2008. I also created a new fursona  osiris_jackal

In closing I would like to thank a lot of people for making this year so enjoyable, but there are two people I want to thank the most
1st I would like to Thank God for making my life so much more enjoyable from what it was five years ago, if there is any one who deserves our praises more it's him.
2nd My buddy  smittywolf , thank you so much for being the most kind hearted furry I have ever talked to and soon to meet.

God bless you all and I hope to see yaw in 2014. Have a happy New Year's

These are the things I had on my with list that I got for Christmas.

1. New HD TV (I have been rockin the standard def for to long)
3. Intous Pro graphics tablet
