*sigh*

There are some days that are just so long and drawn out that you can't take it. You begin to think about yourself, and question how other people see you as a person.

I have a habit of going through life with just enough to get by. It's how I've always done it. In a way, it's a fairly bad habit to have. A lot of the time I seem to think little of myself, but then again I've never been one to think otherwise, or even be told otherwise. I've been through a lot, and don't care about most things because I'm used to being on my own with little to work with. Pain, both emotional and physical has become something I'm fairly well immune to.

Is it bad to say that you're immune to pain? Ya, probably.

For the longest time, my best friend was my pet ferret, I was ignored by most, and commonly yelled at by my folks. I got into university and things changed a lot; in a way, even in my third and last year, I'm not used to it. Living on my own was the best thing that ever happened to me. I could do what I wanted to do without being judged by my family. I made new friends, started getting along with other people easier, and life in Toronto was the greatest. But all the while there were my folks, hanging over my shoulder, calling me and checking in on me. Nothing I did was ever good enough for them (and frankly nothing I do NOW is ever good enough). Though I guess I can thank my sister, the engaged, unemployed Civil Engineer for that part.

God damn she was an over-achiever.

So here I am, one year away from graduating and becoming a graphic designer. My life has turned around so much, but my bad habits still remain. I'm working on that too, if only for one person out there. In a way, it's both frightening, and rather amusing at the same time. I always thought I would die before I hit twenty.

Well, there's still the chance I die AT age twenty >_>
Though that would suck, I like living now <_<

Anyways, now that that's over (and I feel MUCH better now that that's off my chest), I have stuffs to do.

Yay for being totally and utterly vague!

WTF I'm back

... yes, the big question now comes.
WHY am I back after nearly 2 years of ignoring this place.
I blaim Xadium. I really do.
He has linked this little corner of nothing to his super popular site "Suburban Senshi", causing me to realise OH SHI PEOPLE MAY COME AND VISIT.
So I guess I should update.
Ya.
God dammit.
Hate you Xadium. h8 u~~~
Making me work. I don't have time to keep this updated regularly, I have stuff to do and a job.

Yes, I have a job, at GM no less. I'm designing cars (or at least helping with such things, for the summer till school starts). It's a cool job, but like all jobs, takes up a lot of my time. So I guess I can just work this in with random yellings! It's not like I don't do that anyways!

Yay!

I said I wasn't going to be on, but this has to be said.

"Ack! I'm in school! I'm in hell! Same thing!" Evangeline - Negima!

This could not have been closer to my day. My school was hit by some freak setting fires twice. The first time wasn't all that bad, it was in the guys washroom. I didn't mind that one all to much, it was just near my locker and my art room. It truly wasn't bad, except for the fact that I was coughing up smoke till lunch.

The second was worse. I had phys.ed last, and a couple of my friends have it with a different sensei in the gym beside. It wasn't known, till the gyms started filling with smoke. This, I am not exaggerating. I myself can't stand smoke, and seeing as the room was just about filled with it, I almost collapsed.

Due to this fact, we have been put on high alert, no one leaves class until it's finished, no one can hang out in the halls during lunch or spare periods. Just a moment as I rant out my rage...

FUCKING ASSHOLES! I CAN'T STAND THEM! THEY TOOK AWAY MY FREE TIME BECUASE THEY DECIDED TO BE UTTER IDIOTS! I SERIOUSLY HOPE THEY GET CAUGHT AND DELT WITH!!

Thank you. Now, one final note. One of my friends -we both have art class together- saw the guy who did the first one in the guys bathroom. She couldn't identify the person, but we have ha guess to who it is now. (thank god.) I seriously hope this is over soon, I don't like police scanning the hallways.

***PLEASE READ!***

***Updated***  October 26, 2004

I won't be on Suburban Senshi for a while, my school work is begining to catch up on me and I must get my art project finished by November 23. I am no where near completion currently, and must get it done or risk failing my art class. Due to this fact, I have barred myself from the internet until finished my manga, using computer only for details on my work.

I am working extrememly hard on this project, for my art teacher is collecting the best ones to be reviewed for publishing. This is very important to me, and I need the new income. I am sorry for this, and I hope to be back soon.

For now, my character is considered to be on an extended "vacation" on Expel, being called away for business purposes.

Thank you to anyone who reads this, and please pass it on to others in the chat who ask questions. I do this for reasons of my own, the chatbox has nothing to do with my delay with my work. Again, I will be back.
