Holy knitted socks Batman! For once, it's not me being cynical!

...Well... At least not concerning the instance that I am about to blog about.

I digress, as always...

In less than 24 hours, a new year begins. For many of us, 2008 was a less than... enjoyable year, for some it's been the worst year of their lives. Illness, injury, death, pain, hate... none of these were in short supply this year. With the war, bills like Prop. 8, or even just personal issues, we've all given, and received our fair share of anger and hate.

I think 2009 is the year we should all fight to change this. Not sit around and say: "Damn, I wish things were better." No... that's not what I am talking about. I am talking about being the person you want to see others to be, fighting for the change you want to happen.

Quite recently, I was talking to a friend who has had arguably a worse year than any of us. One statement they made that stands out in my mind is: "Nothing magical is going to happen when the clock strikes 12 on January 1st."

You're wrong.

I will say, no, there will be no faery dust, a few magic words, and poof, all your troubles and hardships will be gone, but that's not the only kind of magic we have in our world.

All of our magic as completely un-magical beings lays in our belief. Our belief that we can change things. Our belief that people can be decent. Our belief that we, ourselves, can change.

Human beings are naturally lazy creatures, it's why we rely so heavily on technology. Being naturally lazy creatures, most of us are completely content with sitting around and complaining about how unfair life is, or how indecent people are, when we ourselves are sitting and doing nothing to work on our lives, and are ourselves indecent people when the time comes.

If you don't like the way your life is going... work to change it this year... don't compromise your beliefs... show kindness to someone you've never met before, just because you can.

Live, laugh, love, dream, believe, cry, dance, play... anything... everything.

Fight to make your life the life you want it to be, and help others see that there is indeed still kindness in the world.

Happy 2009 guys,
here's to hoping.
-Fae

"There can be decent men, even in the most indecent of times."

I know it's stupid, to put so much hope into something like a politician. Call me naive, I'm certainly of the same opinion right now... but I'm willing to allow it, just so I can keep the faith that maybe, just maybe..... We really -can-.

I voted today, for the first time in my life, and I am proud to say it was for Barack Obama, and that myself, the rest of my generation, and everyone else who got out today, helped shape history.

I believe we can. Do you?

For those of you I haven't updated personally, Brandi-Ann and I finally found an apartment, the move in date is December second. We will be living in Littleton, and finally going back to school at ACC.

Also, fun little tidbit, Bamm finally joined Avistrum, her character name is Sable, and she was sorted into PARADOR, -sniffles- I was so proud!!!

Propoganda? Sure. True? Absolutely.
I'm disgusted.

"Yesterday, John McCain actually said that if he's president he'll take on — and I quote — `the old boys network in Washington.' I'm not making this up," Obama said. "This is somebody who's been in Congress for 26 years, who put seven of the most powerful Washington lobbyists in charge of his campaign.

"And now he tells us that he's the one who's going to take on the old boys network," Obama said. "The old boys network. In the McCain campaign that's called a staff meeting. Come on."

"Then John McCain went on to say how angry he was at the greedy corporate interests on Wall Street," Obama said. "He is so angry that he wants to punish them with $200 billion worth of tax cuts for them. And if they're not careful he'll give them even more tax cuts for shipping our jobs overseas. I mean, who's he getting these lines from, the lobbyists who are running his campaign?"

Now... onto the actual adult response to things instead of throwing a temper tantrum:

"You can put lipsick on a pig, but it is still a pig, and you can wrap a fish in paper and call it change, but it still smells rotten after 8 years." -Barack Obama.

The Republican party, after doing nothing but attack Obama since the running started, decided to throw a temper tantrum at this remark, calling it rude and unfair. Uhm, taken out of context much? This morning, McCain campaign went to the media, out raged, taken Obama's words further out of context, and attacking him once more.

You can keep up your attacks, but the democratic party will not falter. Palin spent most of her acceptance speech attacking Obama, to which he responded "I have gotten worse insults on the Basketball court." He laughs at their attacks today, because he knows at this point all is folly, and it is just them throwing their juvenile temper tantrum, because he finally got a shot in after taking so much of their shit.

I also have a message for all females. No, just most. The females who claim McCain automatically have their vote because of the female Palin, when they know absolutely nothing about her. You people disgust me. Educate yourselves, you dimwitted fools. If you still like her after looking up her stances, fine, but don't sit there and support her just because she has the same chromosomes as you.

The same goes for people who are refusing to look at either candidate's stances because they plan on just sticking with their party. YOU'RE IDIOTS. READ WHAT YOUR POLITICIAN IS SAYING! KNOW WHAT HE STANDS FOR! ARGH!

-deep breath-
For now, that is all.

Some of you may be quirking an eyebrow going wtf? Hold on, I'm getting there.

Last week I got a digital camera. Meaning I will be able to upload my pictures fully, and in better quality, so I will be doing so.

I would appreciate it if all of you went back and checked them out again, and re-comment.

Thanks,
Fae.

Last wednesday I got in a car wreck with some friends. We're all okay, I was the only one to get hospitalized, though I'm pretty convinced Lucas should have been.

We were turning left at an intersection and a very large truck t boned us, hitting my side of the car. The car totalled. I got a moderate concussion, a bruised lung, some stitches in my forehead, my hands all cut up and has a pinched nerve, the tendons in my left foot are bruised, and the cartilage in my left knee is inflamed. Other than that I just have some pretty tasty bruises here and there, and my head's still bein' kind of wonky.

Sorry for the complete delay in artwork. Once my right hand starts functioning properly I'll be posting again. Loves.

I haven't posted in a while... Haven't drawn in a while.

It's not that I'm having a hard time getting inspired... just that I'm having a hard time drawing. I think it's simply because I've been over thinking everything, including my work. I'm hoping this will go away once some of my stressors are all done and over with.

It's almost con season... That's something that's got me excited. I can't wait for Starfest. Camping season is starting up soon too... Rakis can't come soon enough.

Something else to be shiny about. My sis is coming to see me for Spring break... I'm pysched about that, we haven't spent more than 4 hours with eachother since our trip to NYC, so some quality time with my bff will be nice, and might help.

Anyways, sorry for the sudden stop in pieces.

For those of you who don't know me, or need an update on what's going on, I am now in college, and finally out of Canon. I am between schools right now, but will be applying for CSU next fall, majoring in Cultural Anthropology, and minoring in Musical Theatre. Hopefully everything goes as planned.

Im lacking in the scanner/digital camera department, so hopefully I will have some stuff up soon.

To all my old friends, hope to see you soon, and to all my new fans, I hope you enjoy what you see.

~Fae
