Holy Crap. I cant believe its been almost 9 years since I've made a journal entry or even posted on this account. Decided to just randomly check in recently and its been such nostalgic dream. Its crazy how much has changed. This site really was my whole life for such a long time, ART was my whole life. My teen years were pretty hard on me and I kind of lost touch with I was for a very long time. I've still been drawing over all of these years, but I just kind of.. Moved on from this account. I've still come back a few times to check in, and I've thought about just archiving it a few times, but the thing is.. I don't think I'll ever get rid of it, it holds so many special memories and was such a huge part of my life. (Also Stare into Space Stamp still gets favorited almost every day) I felt like I was at home here whenever I would log on, I would read so many different comics by my favorite artists and they inspired me so much everyday to just keep drawing. I learned so much from the art community and about the art community through DA that I still use today when I'm creating.


Not sure if I'll start posting personal art here again. The thing is, I actually created a second DA account a long time ago to try and move on from this one. You can find it here Bulbasheep

Maybe I'll start posting art there again? The art that I've posted there is still defiantly my style but I have a lot more experience this time around, and by that time I'm more... inspired by the devils lettuce.πŸ₯¦πŸ˜‚


But like I said, I've still been drawing over all of these years, and in that time I did start a small obsession with drawing Cats, in Top Hats. I've actually drawn almost 4,000 of them πŸ˜… You can check out the Instagram for them at: CatsWithTopHatsCo! That's mainly where I post art things for my small business I started a few years ago. Be sure to check it out if you'd like to see how much I've improved over the last 9 years!


Well if you managed to somehow find my DA, whether your an old friend also checking on your old DA, or a stranger who came across my art, thank you for taking the time, and I hope you have a beautiful day, or night. ❀


PS. I miss how we use to make Journals Back in the Day. Where are my "What I'm Listening to:" "what I'm eating" Options not available anymore? Is that just for premium now?

Whats up guys? Haven't seen you in awhile..
 
I don't really know what I'm doing on this account, I just kind of ended up here. I was going through my old art, all the old memories, the old comments, my old messages. It really all just makes me want to cry. I miss my past sometimes.

I've improved a lot over the years, I don't like to post things on this account anymore, its more of a page for me to look at my old art and see my own improvement, and to help me keep improving.

No, scratch that, I miss the people that were in my life in my past. But I when i really think about it, I was so sad back in the day. My life was in need of a change. Things happened for a reason. I guess I needed to get away, to start my life the way I wanted to live it. Not the way some person who I thought was my friend wanted me to live.

That friend knows who they are, and whether they take the time in their heart to remember me or not, and somehow see this....

Just know, that even through everything, I will always love you. You were my best friend throughout our entire childhood, You helped me begin to grow up. I know I messed a lot of things up, things you weren't happy about. But you gotta understand that I was exploring and growing as a person 5 years ago. I was young and utterly hopeless. But you trying to completely control my life and control the people i had in my life is not okay. I have never had a person ruin me as much as you did. I am not a puppet. 

I guess you could say that I'm finally moving on with my life, Im always going to miss you, but I will never forgive you again and never allow you in my life again.

I will not let my past control me.
