I'm sorry, guys, I am so far behind on responding to comments. I haven't posted a deviation in quite a while, and I definitely haven't been as active on dA lately.

I think I have officially overcommitted myself, and even if I hadn't, I would still be short on time to get things done. I'm even behind in my schoolwork right now. Gah...

Haha, I feel like I end up saying stuff like this really often. I don't know how it happens, I think it's just that I have a hard time saying "no" to people when they ask me to make time commitments.

I definitely need to start weeding things out of my schedule.

Hopefully soon I will be able to start getting caught up on everything!

Just thought I'd let you guys know that I haven't fallen off the face of the earth...haha.

...and that is not even fathomable right now.

First of all, I know everyone says this, but where did summer go? Seriously, where did it GO?! I think that someone stole it and somehow brainwashed everyone into thinking we got three months worth when really, it was about a week long.

Second, I am about to start my third year of college and I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up. Maybe I never will, and maybe that's okay. As long as I end up doing something that somehow helps people, I'm not sure I care what I do (as long as it's not illegal or immoral, haha), and I'll try not to let it bother me when people ask me what I want to do with my life and I still have to say that I don't know. Lol.

Third, I am writing this journal entry because I do not want to keep packing. It is gross (packing, I mean). I am not sure how typing a journal entry to complain about packing is supposed to help the said packing get done faster, exactly. I guess it's called PROCRASTINATION, that dreaded sickness, and I guess I'm not completely cured yet. Still working on that.

So, I am going to go pack some more.

I WILL post deviations and stuff. Sometime. Later. Eventually.



P.S. And while, once again, I'm gonna miss my family and my puppies (a lot!), I am really excited to see my college friends again and start classes and stuff.

Hi guys!

Yes, I have been writing stuff...sort of...off and on.

I guess what I should say is that I am trying to develop the discipline necessary to practice writing even when I don't feel like it. Practice is good. And there are lots of things that we don't feel like doing, but we kinda have to do them anyway; might as well buckle down and do them!

When I get off the computer, I am going to go do some of the things I have been putting off. For serious.

In other news, I have been thinking about things that I am thankful for...I am thankful for sunshine, indoor plumbing(yay!), music, my health, my friends, and dA, just to name a few things. What are you thankful for?

I figured that I had better post a new journal entry, 'cause if I'm getting sick of seeing the exact same one all the time, then everyone else probably is, too.

I haven't done too much writing lately, mostly because I haven't yet disciplined myself enough to practice things I need to practice. But I am currently working on a (very)short story. It's just for fun, but maybe I'll post it when I'm done. I'm having fun writing it.

In other news, I am apparently nowhere near as patient or mature as I thought I was. Ha. No need to give anyone the gory details, but let's just say I need someone to come whack me upside the head whenever I start acting ridiculous.

Yes, I am still trying to decide whether or not to actually start a blog. I feel like, if nothing else, it would be good writing practice and would force me to edit, since it would be visible to the world.

I also think that it would be better than using this dA journal for everything under the sun. I could actually use this for what it's meant for...

I guess I am still just a little hesitant about starting something. I don't know why. Partially, I think that I do not want to start something that I might not follow through with. Sometimes I have a hard enough time responding to messages on here...

But I will think about it some more. It wouldn't hurt anything to begin a blog, even if no one reads it. It would be good practice.

P.S. I will try to post a deviation pretty soon. I've really been lazy during this first week that I've been home from college and haven't done many constructive things. I will have to get into the habit of writing stuff regularly if I want to improve.
