Recently I have been concentrating on my writing and improving it. This has however sadly eaten into my time for photography and I have not been out in a while to take any new pictures. Though I know I really should so I can develop this wonderful hobby I am just finding it hard to get back into it. I have thought on taking photos of a certain theme though finding a theme which I feel comfortable with seems harder than I expected. I have a few thoughts in mind but nothing seems to jump out at me.

Well, with that sad note aside I have some wonderful news. On September the 9th we are expecting to greet the newest member to our family. My older sister is expecting her first son any day now and I promise as soon as he enters this world pictures will be provided so you can all go awww at his cuteness. I am looking forward to being an aunt, though I have to admit I join my sister in being scared. It is a strange feeling I know I will love my nephew no matter what but I cannot help but feel I may make a mistake. And then I have to think if I feel this way how does my sister feel. Well, I shall keep this journal updated as much as I can when it comes to my baby nephew and let us hope he arrives safe and sound.

Self feature

As any artiest, if I can call myself that I like to display my ‘art’ for all those to see and offer helpful comments on so I can improve. So below are a few of my favourite pieces. I really am in a rut at the moment when it comes to photography so sadly I have very few new photos to share.



Random Features

During my spare time I love to do nothing more than browse the amazing array of art shown on this site. Every so often I come across an artist who just needs to be features to share with others. So below are a few artiest I feel have shown a great eye and have produced something really worth looking at. I recommend that you visit every gallery of the artiest featured to truly be inspired.

Journal entry

Ok some of you may have noticed I have removed all but one of my poems, that is because sadly I found a few of them had been used by another site under someone else’s name. I was not given any credit for the work. Now I am thankful that I was able to sort it out so my work was removed, but this has shaken me a little. I just do not feel safe posting my written work now. So I shall not. All work but child in the night has been removed and sadly I will not be posting any more of my poems on DA from now on. This reminds me of a saying, it only takes one to ruin everything for everyone else.

Journal entry

I have found a lot of time on my hands of late, yet nothing to do. So I have decided to start thinking more on the creative side and see what will happen. Well, I have had a few ideas in the past to write something. My friends and family have always tried to encourage me to write a short story, or a fantasy book.

Well, thinking about the idea, I know I am not a famous writer and I know my style does need some work, but everyone starts somewhere, right? Well, I have done some research and found that most fantasy books have been done, and if I stand a chance I need to think of a new idea altogether. I have something in mind which bases on the world called Elmersia. I'm still working on the idea and will keep you all updated when I have something new.

I was just wondering, if anyone could give me some advice. I would like to hear from other people who have set themselves this large goal. What I could avoid, or aim for. What style is liked and what is not. The basics, any advice would be most welcome. Any way, that is my lot to today. I hope to be active on here, I know I have said this in the past but I will try.

gONZOm

Gonzom Photography has always been a inspiration to me. He always seems to capture the perfect moments within his photos and I thought I would share a few of his photos with you all.




CapnGarrett

If there was ever a artist who had talent it would be CapnGarrett, his drawings are amazingly detailed and always appear so life like.

Well, what to say. I've been very busy of late but I am working on getting back into the swing of things. I've even had the time to come on and add a few comments to people's art work as well as have a quick browse though the forums. Not as productive as I would like but hey it's a start.

I'll be away this weekend due to turning 18 and having party things to deal with so hope everyone has a great weekend and see you all on the up side on Monday.

Some thumb nails for you to enjoy

Sorry I haven’t been very active on dA for a while. I’ve been working on my role-play on a site called RavenBlack where you can role-play vampires, werewolves and other creatures of the night.
I have been meaning to post some art here but I’ve bee slightly distracted. I do hope to get some photos posted here soon. But until then I thought I would let you guys know I haven’t disappeared.

Also if anyone is interested in vampire role-play you should check out [link]

Well, this school year could have gone better. I'm having to drop out of collage and look at other options for my future.
I've also been having trouble with my psychologist. He thinks it is time that he moves me onto another person who is better suited to dealing with Borderline personality disorder. So in other words he has given up. Oh well that sucks but what can I do the system is broken.

Any way maybe I could take a NVQ or an Apprenticeship with some company. I only have 2 more years to wait until I can join the army and get away from all this crap.

On a high note my Rat has learnt a new trick. He now sits on my head and every time I give him a treat he will turn in a circle. It is very cute. ^^

I need a rant. I've just about had it with some so called friends. I've made some mistakes in my life but who hasn't. I can understand the jokes I can even laugh at them. But when a joke turns into name calling and taunting it starts to hurt.
I'm starting to hate collage, I sometimes cannot see the reason to go in.

I've tried to talk to teachers but they just say to keep my head up, to keep working at it and it will go away. Yeah that is a lot of help. There are just some things I could do without yet I have to deal with them every day. Friends calling me names making fun of every imperfection. I think I can now understand why some people turn to perfection, it is excepted of so many but few reach it. I just cannot understand why so many people cannot accept me for who I am, they except me to be the one who is always cheerful and helpful. I'm the one they dump all their problems on. I like to help but when I get none back I think they are taking advantage.


One day I am going to snap and smack someone in the face. I almost did today. Thank F**K for music. If I didn't have this escape someone at collage would have a black eye by now.

*Takes deep breath* It's not their fault I guess they have brains the size of peas. Oh well another day has passed and another will come, all I can do is smile and fight on. Quoting disturbed I will use "my music as a weapon".

Just broken up for the summer break and not had a very good start. My boyfriend of 1 year and 7 months broke up with me yesterday. Long distance relationships sometimes work but I guess just not for me Any way I'm trying not to let this ruin my whole summer I will just look back on the good times me and him had and who knows when I understand this whole thing in my mind maybe me and him can still be friends.

I just want to say now if some of my work seems more morbid than normal the above reason might be to blame.

Okay firstly my sister has moved out so I now have my own room.
Me and my mum have painted it a nice light purple and I am in the process of filling the wall space with posters ^^

I also have a new hodded rat. His name is Gizmo. He is about 5-6 months old I think. At the moment he is still a little shy but with lots of love and apple(he loves apple) he is getting to know me. When he becomes a little less shy I shall get some nice photos of him to show you all.

Well that is about it for me this week. I'm going to wales next week for a school english trip so shall see you all after.

Well where do I start. I have been having a very bad week. Firstly I’ve been told that my councillor needs a break from me so in other words yet another one has given up on me. For those who don’t know I have a personality disorder called Borderline Personality disorder. It’s not easy feeling different but when you have a label like that over you head it sort of makes it worse. I’ve been in many forms of counselling. Group, single. You name it and they have tried it on me. Any way I was back in single and thought I was getting on well. Okay so I had a few moment when I hated my councillor but they where starting to understand me. But now they abandon me like every other one has. Says a lot about our health service when they keep pushing a person which is asking for help away.


It also doesn’t help that I live in a crap hole. This flat is fallen down, the roof leaks, people get mugged near the shops, and kids steal stuff from outside our door. It’s just not safe here. Like last night the women who lives next to us was screaming at her kid to shut up. You could hear the kid crying, then you hear a banning noise and the kid goes quite. I see the kid the next day with a nice black eye. Like I said this place is not a safe place and I am helpless to help people out of it. Oh well, it is not like I need them, I have myself and that is the only person I can rely on sometimes.


Anyway less of a rant, I’m having a art block at the moment, might have something to do with the above but I don’t care, just though I would let you guys know s you don’t think I am leaving.
