Well we’re finally at the end of the year, time really does go by quickly! With the end of each year and the promise of a new one, we need to reflect on the things you’ve done in the past and your plans for the future…so…here we go!

Major Events of 2008:

o1. Nearly slicing off my right hand pinky finger tip off and needed 5 stiches to patch myself back together…I’ll never look at automatic sliding doors the same again.

o2. Managing to pass a calculus course for the first time…I HATE CALCULUS.

o3. Taking a physics course and passing with flying colours.

o4. Slowing developing a new drawing(chibis included) and colouring style all because of a certain korean artist.

o5. Ranting…A LOT about my part time job. And the rants will continue, I’m sure…ORZ…

o6. Purchasing web hosting for this very blog and accompanying site…only to lauch the site 6 months later.

o7. Having to start repaying my student loan ¬____¬!

And a whole bunch of other minute occurances.

Plans for 2009:

o1. To GRADUATE COLLEGE!!!!!

o2. To keep at improving artwise, especially since I want to sell my art at conventions and I’m giving myself till 2010 to at least attempt to do something towards that -_-!

o3. To get a better job dammit…if there’s any advice I can give anyone reading this, DO NOT WORK AT WALMART ahhhhhhh!

o4. To draw more male characters D:!

o5. To gain more traffic to the site *shameless self promotion*!

o6. Experiment with more layout designs :D!

o7. To make cleaner pencil sketches.

o8. To FINALLY finish all the gift art and trades I owe people…I better finish up and get to work >_>!

Other than that I’m sure I’ll come up with some resolutions or two, but other than that, I hope for a good 2009! Anyone out there in the big bad internets got any plans for 2009 :D?

Randomly made a twitter account, so feel free to add me.  Gotta admit, making tweets is kind of fun.

Remember kids, just because you see a cool plugin doesn’t necessarily mean you HAVE to have it. And if you must have said plugin, make sure you know what you’re doing*headdesk*! Now if you’ll excuse me, I need some sleep, for tomorrow it’s time to make a new site layout. But in the mean time, I give you a little preview!

First of all, welcome! More than likely(almost 100% I’d say) you came across this blog from my homepage, tranquil solace(which I’m still trying to get over the shock of FINALLY launching the site) and if you did, thank you for visiting. If not, what are you waiting for! There’s tons of more interesting things there, get to it :P!

Anywhoo I guess I’ll use this blog to list any potential plans for site updates, layout changes, works in progress, all the good stuff. If you want to see a more frequently updated blog, head over to livejournal. In the mean time…have a screenshot.

Clicky!! A little something I’ve been working on for a little while, but because of a horrid job, I never seem to have a moment to finish. But hopefully this weekend will change that.

Well that’s all for now, more random, art filled entries to come soon!

EDIT-Decided to use a text link for the screenie, since it’s too wide for the layout :P!
