An incredibly challenging year, but THE year where I turn my life in the direction I've been looking for since I was little. I'm a littl…

my tablet is on its last legs

I have a wireless adapter for my tablet because it hardly likes any of my chords (even my new ones). I love it! But that means it has a battery. usually, that means I can just charge it up with a chord when the battery runs out. guess what? my tablet decided to just... stop charging. it won't conne…

a few days to be blue

My boyfriend and I split up. We were together for three years. seeing all this happy love from Anthrocon and whatnot isn't helping either. I'm sorry folks, but I need some time to be alone. I need some time to heal. I'll still be drawing. just behind the scenes. I'll share them when I'm ready and i…

I am no longer a high schooler

I’m a high school graduate. I did it. I ended up bawling my eyes out when the school got empty and I was waiting for my friend to pick me up. I’m so happy I’m leaving so much old anxiety behind about the crowds, about the gum chewing and my hearing disorder, I can’t believe I survived the bullies.…

I've almost made it

Any music makers out there?

well. I REALLY want to get into making electronic music. (blame the brony fandom for that). I've had FL Studio for a few years, but I've never done much with it because I feel like I don't know how to make a completed song.. Does anyone have any advice? tutorials? recommended websites? I just feel…

Attention Fursuiters!

care to help me for ONE MINUTE? I'm doing my senior project on fursuiting (also, I'm probably the least qualified person to be doing this project but hey. I'm supposed to learn from this!) If you own a fursuit, having experience with suiting or suiters... I want you to do ONE thing for me. Describe…

oh goodness I kind of just disappeared...

I'm really sorry about that. I went on a trip to Portland with my symphony band <:} I had a lot of fun and saw some great stuff. We also stopped by Astoria and SeaSide Oregon, both places I really enjoyed. I'm so happy I was able to see the ocean for the first time in 7 years <:} I had a pretty bad…

I'm doing my senior project on fursuiting (partially as an excuse to pressure myself to hop on making another one. long story short, I tried a balaclava method this time and started sewing on the elastic... lo and behold the balaclava I made out of some stretchy fabric I had RIPPED RI…

I wouldn't have enough money for AC even if I tried. I'm in the middle of nowhere and I don't have enough furry friends to even consider wanting to tag along (even if they did have the money) I'm too much of a dreamer, and that is really frustrating me lately. Because I PRIDE in being a dreamer. I…

I couldn't imagine what it is like to have so much spam sent to you. ~Kemo, whoever he/she may be, has dominated the submissions here (and I hear it is a problem on FA as well) not with his/her own art, but with bot-generated users spammin…
