Total Eclipse of the Heart? #noeclipse
4/23- I had a feeling this day was coming, but I had hoped it wouldn't...
I’m really not so sure what’s going to become of my 14 years here on DeviantART when the Eclipse becomes mandatary next month, I really don’t. I've tried to use the Eclipse version a number of times now since its first rollout and I have never been able to stay on it very long before toggling right back to the original interface in order to properly find notes, communication, and get my grounding.
I have to be perfectly honest — I can’t guarantee staying. I don’t know. Perhaps DA intents to listen to our concerns and make improveme
Shinju doujin-bomb incoming? XD
1/26- Alright. I think this journal is in good need of an update, what do ya say?
I've been told i take things too hard. And I'm like that sometimes, you know? I suffer these "catastrophe failures" of my world, of my heart, and of my passion and suddenly my interest... that drive, leaves me. I have a counselor for this. It is one of the things I see him for every other week so I guess that I have been that way all my life to be honest. It's just the internet that I haven't had that whole time in which to make it all so much more apparent. I could go on and on with this, about all the whys and how comes, but I know already that I've been th

8/21- For someone who was never meant for this world, I must confess I am suddenly having a hard time actually leaving it. Of course, they say every atom in our bodies was once part of a star. Maybe I'm not leaving... Maybe I'm going home.
Oh, is there anything more difficult than finding that one comforting word in such an uncomfortable time? For the moment I am speechless and memories, like paparazzi cameras, are triggered by the most simple and unexpected of words, actions, and even music ... “We’re Number #1"
There is no pain so great as the memory of joy in present grief, Aeschylus said. And right now Stefan Karl is absolut
May the best artist win!
7/16- It is fair week in Western New York. Yesterday I went up to the Floral Hall to drop of my entries for my 2018 “Access The Arts” exhibit. Judging happened today and then the fair will officially open its gates for the week starting Monday.
I decided this year to enter in and go for the one prize that I have yet to earn — The George Peterella Award. It is bestowed upon the artist who places first in oils. Because the cash reward that comes with this trophy is so high, you can imagine how stiff the competition is. Also, oil painting has never been my biggest forte. I can do it of course, but I have always generally been

Dear Shinju, it brought tears to my eyes to see myself mentioned here, even more so since my own struggles have been helping you not feel alone. Indeed, you're not alone.
I have to thank you for this journal, too, because knowing that my pain and struggle could help another person means that all that suffering wasn't a wasted piece of my life. 

Feel free to Note me sometimes if you need a friend who understands. I hope things continue to look up for you. <3
