“I’ve learned a lot this year.
I learned that things don’t always turn our the way you planned,
or the way you think they should.
And I’ve learned that there are things that go wrong that don’t always get fixed
or get put back together the way they were before.
I’ve learned that some broken things stay broken.
And I’ve learned that you can get through bad times
and keep looking for better ones,
as long as you have people who love you.”


--

“I’ve learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow. I’ve learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights. I’ve learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you’ll miss them when they’re gone from your life. I’ve learned that making a “living” is not the same thing as making a “life.” I’ve learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance. I’ve learned that you shouldn’t go through life with a catcher’s mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw something back. I’ve learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision. I’ve learned that even when I have pains, I don’t have to be one. I’ve learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone. People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back. I’ve learned that I still have a lot to learn. I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”

Wangst post aside.

Kidnapping [info]advienga sometime today.

It's snowing out. Actual snow. It's pretty enough when I'm in my house looking at it, but once I have to go out and deal with it, I loathe it. Also reminds me that I need to buy a snow shovel.

Still spending a lot of time on Tumblr, but nothing hugely relevant.

Also, Formspring! Because I love questions. :D If you have one, link me and I'll +follow you!

We ran out to the mall to grab some things from Target. Forgot it's the Friday before Christmas (because, up until today, it's barely snowed and we've been shut-ins). Wasn't as bad as expected, but we did avoid Walmart. We were up there a few days ago and I wanted to absolutely kill everyone in the building.

I wish I could say I have something interesting or relevant to talk about, but I really don't. At least, not life-wise. Things are kind boring, but that's okay. Lots of stuff is going to be happening in January.




Demon Ryan + Poe


Alt-U RP stuff, because we're huge faggots. Poe and Ryan (who are happily engaged in the regular universe, Ryan is cleaning up from his casual cocaine use and they're doing good together) ended up seperating (they were engaged AU, as well). Ryan gets his shit all sorts of fucked (including becoming possessed and then developing a heroin addiction). Poe becomes a hunter (not as if this didn't run in her family already, of course).

Where's Poe's purple hair, you might ask? Well, shock and revelation: Poe is a natural blonde.

Seriously.

Really.

I know, it's weird for me, as well. And she's MY headperson.

But, yeah. Natural blonde. But she's almost always dyed it because she hates the blonde stereotypes (despite her not fitting any of them).

I'm feeling kind of hurt right now.

Listless, apathetic, worthless, useless, stupid, thoughtless, dumb.

Another case of 'you're a fuckup, Ally'.

It's so weird how one phrase or comment just kicks the shit out of your mood, shoves it in the garbage disposal and turns it on for gory mayhem.

Meh.



And, just like that, it's changed.

Dear Hormones,
I hate you, die in a fire.
Love, Ally.

Tenative schedule for the MAIN CAMPUS. Only one that's not registered at the moment is the writing class (TJ got the last slot in that one). I'm gonna see if something opens up so I can take it with him.

Still apartment/house hunting up there. The biggest issue is the animals, despite us not having a cat/dog places are all FFFFFFFF about small caged animals. Ugh.

Going up to kidnap Angie today, since she doesn't work until Wednesday. Probably going to bum around and watch Supernatural and fag a lot.

I need to clean, the kitchen is a mess and I'd been avoiding it since I've been crampy and icky.

I'm feeling pretty good lately. I don't know if it's my complete nocturnalism (I don't go to bed until 11AM or 12PM in the morning/afternoon), but I've just been keeping busy with sorting music and drawing. It's pretty nice.

This: http://www.thethingsiwant.com/obliviousally/ has been a fun little time waster, as well.

So, on Tumblr, a lot of people use Formspring for anonymous inquiries and stuff like that. I decided to sign up for an account in case I wanted to use it for that. Then, I realized, it would make things SO simple for commission inquiries! So I set one up, though I'm not taking any commissions right now.

http://www.formspring.com/forms/?773118-YjyWiKNuYl

I figure, when/if I do again, I can direct people there and not have to deal with the song and dance they make me do on places like FA and stuff. I'm not taking commissions through notes and shit anymore. No way. It's too hard to keep track of things and this way, it looks more proffessional as well. Which looks good on me.

To artist people on my list, how does that look? Should I add anything? Suggestions ahoy!

I also have a formspring.me account, if people enjoy asking anonymous questions: http://www.formspring.me/obliviousally



Well, it's been a little over exactly three years since I've seriously considered getting a tattoo. I'm thinking about getting one sometime next year. Like, really seriously.



I'm thinking of the plated Pentagram (from Supernatural, it's a symbol to prevent demonic possession) over my heart and the Seal of Metatron (durp, I'm can't remember my favorite games' symbols!) Halo of the Sun (from Silent Hill, it stands for rebirth/resurrection) on the same side of my back, generally aligned with on another, essentially. I'll probably get the Pentagram first, since it's much simpler than the Metatron seal and I want something on my front. Plus, I really like just plain blackwork. I don't know if I'd get something with color, to be honest.

I'd still like to get some script done, but I haven't settled on what.



I have my writing final at 11:30AM. I haven't slept, but thankfully it's all an online forum discussion. I have no idea what this is going to consist of, but whatev.

While having a conversation about old characters, old art and the like, TJ and I were reminded of our short-lived (mostly because of me) webcomic we had years ago. I mentioned that I didn't think I had the images any more.

BUT THEN.

I REMEMBERED THE URL.

http://furrality.furtopia.org

Good lord, that is all sorts of WTF and failery.



I'm CLEANING my computer room today. It's needed it for a long time and I would start, but get nowhere before. Tonight, since there's nothing going on (TJ's sleeping and Angie went to bed, so I don't have fagging to do), I decided to buckle down and get it done.

Plus, it make me feel rejuvenated. I like a clean working space. Sometimes it may seem like chaos, but as long as it's tidy and I can find things, it makes me happy and more likely to work on artwork and the like.

I have SO. MANY. T-SHIRTS. But I can't bare to part with any of them. I guess I'm making up for getting hand-me-downs and, well, things that weren't MINE when I was younger. It took a long time for me to actually get a WARDROBE, so I'm kind of attatched to it. Plus, I just really like t-shirts.

I've been finding my old jeans that I've worn through (hi there, fat thighs). I tend to wear a pair of jeans until they give in. So I have a handful of pairs around the house that I no longer wear, but I haven't thrown out yet because I want to find another pair of them. Yes, it sounds weird, but all the jeans I wear tend to be SUPER comfortable. A 'favorite pair' sort of thing. So I'd love to replace them before doing something else (possibly reconning) with them.



Karen bought us a little bit of food. Mostly necessities, milk, eggs, bread. She also got us some meat (fish, steak, ham). So that helps a little. We have a small bit of gas, too. Krispy-love is sending me a little money so, while the internet is probably going to be cut off Monday (unless some miracle happens), I can still pay it when I get the monies from her. Which is good. My mom is also taking me down to campus (so we don't have to use gas) for my Writing final on Monday. This is also good.

I'm trying not to let a bad situation get me down. I have food for my animals, Christmas is around the corner and both sets of parents said they'll help out with gift cards and money so we can survive until January. I know most people would be all bitchy about a lack of presents, but I just want to be comfortable. I don't need a lot of gifts, most things I buy for myself, so it's not a huge deal anyhow. Sometimes it's too much of a pain to describe what you want to someone and them not really 'getting it'. Plus, we got a digital camera last year and it's still working fine!

Still trying to rehome critters, since it's going to be difficult enough to get a place with the ferrets and the ratties. Bunch of hairless rats to find homes for (the ones that we, oops, ended up with in August because some people don't know how to sex rats properly), need to find Shank (the bunny) a new home, as well. I need to call a few people this coming week and figure some things out.

I'm also trying to figure things I NEED when I get my money next month. I do need new glasses, it's been...almost four years with this perscription. Plus, I want new frames really bad. Aside from that, pay my bills and work out some sort of food thing. I'm thinking I'll, y'know, actually use my Sam's Club membership and buy non pershibles (sides, canned veggies, stuff like that) because those are the things we usually go for last when eating stuff in the house. I'm just trying to think of ways to be more efficient with my money. Although, having a job will also help with that. It'd be nice to have some money going back IN the bank when some comes OUT.



So, overall, doing a lot better than I was last post. This is good. I get like that sometimes, but it passes. I know it always does, but it doesn't change the initial flip out for whatever reason. Once I get it out, it starts to get better.
