+edit Dec 1st +
Although I have not gotten back my x-ray results, my finger seems to be doing a lot better--the swelling has gone down by 50% 8D *is very happy* Thank you for everyone's caring comments

However...I've managed to catch a cold, so I'm sniffling and sneezing quite badly T-T lol it's one hurdle after another >-<##

Agh. I'm working on my last essay of the year (hazzah! I've done 3 essays in the span of 2 weeks T_T) However, I'm having such a hard time finishing this one (I'm almost done though...conclusions are annoying and redundant ._.) I can't seem to concentrate very well. >-< *sigh* *hates writing more than anything else* >< Can't wait 'til I'm done with school in general~no more academic writing! Ah well. Just gotta suck it all up for now >( !

---------

>< ugh, I'm hating crunch time soo much right now--lotsa assignments and exams comin' my way *dies*

Strangely enough, every time I close my eyes or during the moments before I fall asleep, I catch a glimpse of what I would like to paint/draw... It's pretty vivid too. *sigh* so many ideas, so little time.

Anyways, to top off the lovely time I'm having with school assignments and upcoming exams, I've somehow sprained my finger? (on my right hand...nooes T^T)...I don't even know how or when, or if it's actually a sprain, 'cause the doctor didn't really give me a diagnosis ('cause he's not really my doctor...my doctor's on vacation for 2 weeks BAWWW perfect timing eh T_T). So yesterday, he signed a form for me, and I got the x-ray done this morning. From the looks of the x-ray, it doesn't seem like I've broken anything...but my finger's still swollen, and I can't bend it properly due to the swollenness of it... Maybe I've sprained a ligament...? Anyway, it's been swollen for a week now, it seemed to have gotten better during the middle of the week, but yesterday it has suddenly gotten worse ;_; I hope I'll get the results of the X-ray back soon ><

So yup. I'll be taking things a bit slowly until the swelling subsides. I am SO glad I'm not living in a time when students would be stuck with pen and paper for essays.

Please Keep things cute and adorable
And if your style happens to be more mature/graceful-looking, make the character look lady-like/gentleman-like (depending on the gender of the character you will be drawing for me <333 )

That is all ^^

I feel much better now, thank you ^-^
I shall be back to working on the art I still owe n_n



I haven't 'written' a journal in quite a while. Plus, I thought I should probably eliminate some of the clutter on my DA page lol.

I'm in the middle of studying for a final, so I haven't been working on any art. I'm also feelin' a bit frustrated and down with art again. (Yes, again. I always have this love-hate relationship with creating art) >< It just constantly feels like I cannot reach the artistic standard that I want myself to be at >< I hope it's just my fried brain talking (ugh, I'm so freaked out about this exam X_X, it's worth 50% of my grade OTL)

Anyways, I should go catch some sleep now
Thank you to everyone for the comments and support~I always feel encouraged by reading them
