                <description><![CDATA[ alright since ive been getting loaded up with schoolwork lately... i took a couple weeks off on the features... so next saturday i should have them going again... if not the week after... my english class has been killin me... ive had a paper of speech due every week... and i have just 2 more speeches to do... the last one shouldnt be too hard... i have that 1/2 way done... but next weekend i will probably be doing the finishing touches and studying for my last math test of the semester... but there is good news... i handed in my program change so as of next semester i will offically be in the photography program... i decided to give up on graphic design... i LOVE doing photomanipulations... but in order to get a job in that field i have to have a bachelor's degree... and i need something i can use with just an associates... cuz i really dont want to have serving and bartending as my main source of income anymore... i highly doubt i will ever give up bartending... its a lot of fun for me and a good supplemental income... but yeah... i have a bunch of photos i havent uploaded... so i guess i wont go too much into hibernation this year when the snow does start to fall (i think we have been VERY lucky here in wisconsin... we've has flurries the last few days but nothing is sticking... yet)... but i think things should get a little easier for me soon cuz next semester i will be taking one class... next school year may get a little crazy... but i'll do what i can... dont forget i still have a contest going on and i would really appreciate any entry... everything will be considered... i would just like more than one entry... so if you can pass this along to others cuz i would really like some entries here lol<br /><br /> ]]></description>

i think these people on this feature should get an extra pat on the back because they actually FOLLOWED the post... all i asked was 3 thumbs and list your fav movie (so i dont deal with spammers... fair enough, right?) and a VERY large chunk either A-posted more than 3 thumbs and B- didnt list a fav movie... and so yeah... way to go my features <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> <br /><br />first im starting with my contest... my friend becki <a href="http://afightingchance.deviantart.com/art/becki-1-136371391">[link]</a> posted something on facebook that really inspired me... there are so many people in this world who just dwell on the bad... and i always want to remember the happy... for more info and the rules click on the thumb <span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://afightingchance.deviantart.com/art/tattoo-contest-140579208"><img src="http://th00.deviantart.net/fs50/150/f/2009/290/0/c/tattoo_contest_by_afightingchance.jpg" width="150" height="83" /></a></span></span><br /><br /><br />here we go!<br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://JohnnyBoyBaptista.deviantart.com/art/Dark-Horse-Comics-Ghost-2-129452800"><img src="http://th08.deviantart.net/fs48/150/i/2009/195/e/2/Dark_Horse_Comics___Ghost_2_by_JohnnyBoyBaptista.jpg" width="116" height="150" /></a></span></span> by *<a class="u" href="http://johnnyboybaptista.deviantart.com/">JohnnyBoyBaptista</a><br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://Grishhak.deviantart.com/art/Spider-3-138938751"><img src="http://th02.deviantart.net/fs51/150/i/2009/275/9/2/Spider_3_by_Grishhak.jpg" width="150" height="150" /></a></span></span> by ~<a class="u" href="http://grishhak.deviantart.com/">Grishhak</a><br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://Milandeentjestoe.deviantart.com/art/Teacups-138214607"><img src="http://th06.deviantart.net/fs50/150/f/2009/268/6/f/Teacups_by_Milandeentjestoe.jpg" width="101" height="150" /></a></span></span> by ~<a class="u" href="http://milandeentjestoe.deviantart.com/">Milandeentjestoe</a><br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://snowbean.deviantart.com/art/Playtime-132409024"><img src="http://th01.deviantart.net/fs47/150/i/2009/218/0/b/Playtime_by_snowbean.jpg" width="110" height="150" /></a></span></span> by ~<a class="u" href="http://snowbean.deviantart.com/">snowbean</a><br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://MadameFatalite.deviantart.com/art/Lady-Jessie-132633800"><img src="http://th03.deviantart.net/fs48/150/i/2009/220/e/f/Lady_Jessie_by_MadameFatalite.jpg" width="100" height="150" /></a></span></span> by ~<a class="u" href="http://madamefatalite.deviantart.com/">MadameFatalite</a><br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://Lithwood.deviantart.com/art/Always-Here-139919704"><img src="http://th06.deviantart.net/fs51/150/i/2009/284/e/4/Always_Here_by_Lithwood.jpg" width="102" height="150" /></a></span></span> by =<a class="u" href="http://lithwood.deviantart.com/">Lithwood</a><br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://bumble-boo.deviantart.com/art/Elemental-Project-Colour-139436916"><img src="http://th01.deviantart.net/fs50/150/f/2009/279/9/b/Elemental_Project_Colour_by_bumble_boo.jpg" width="150" height="150" /></a></span></span> by *<a class="u" href="http://bumble-boo.deviantart.com/">bumble-boo</a><br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://EvilDemonAkira.deviantart.com/art/Sympathy-138676331"><img src="http://th02.deviantart.net/fs50/150/i/2009/273/c/8/Sympathy_by_EvilDemonAkira.jpg" width="114" height="150" /></a></span></span> by ~<a class="u" href="http://evildemonakira.deviantart.com/">EvilDemonAkira</a><br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://SsGirlo.deviantart.com/art/play-your-cards-135757307"><img src="http://th02.deviantart.net/fs23/150/i/2009/246/2/3/play_your_cards_by_SsGirlo.png" width="150" height="113" /></a></span></span> by ~<a class="u" href="http://ssgirlo.deviantart.com/">SsGirlo</a><br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://cadydid.deviantart.com/art/Road-to-Home-140361577"><img src="http://th07.deviantart.net/fs51/150/i/2009/288/4/2/Road_to_Home_by_cadydid.jpg" width="125" height="150" /></a></span></span> by =<a class="u" href="http://cadydid.deviantart.com/">cadydid</a><br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http:... ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ so last night was not a very good night.... it was pretty awesome start (got my prints for my hard copy of my portfolio and most of them turned out great) and had a lovely dinner... but i was sitting in my living room playing on my computer when i saw a moth flying around and so i was trying to kill it... and i was hearing some mewing that sounded like it was coming from outside, and i knew it was haru's cry and so i thought he was behind the couch so i didnt think much of it... a few minutes later i look over at the open window to see my other kitty, miss kitty hanging halfway out.. and i was like 'oh sh** whats going on' i go to the window to find the screen knocked out, and haru outside looking very scared.... so after yelling the f-word i was out the window and by the time steve looked up i was nowhere to be seen... so here i am outside trying to get my special little man all while he's hissing and spitting at me... which normally if he does that i leave him alone, but not in this case... so i finally catch him and put him back inside and steve finally figured out where i was cuz he saw a cat come in through the window... so he's helping me back in as well.  so this morning i woke up and i have 8 new bruises, a skinned knee, and my bellybutton piercing is torn and the area around it is all scratched up.  now i was super upset, but this morning when i thought about it... it could have been much worse... miss kitty could have also ran out, so i would have had to catch 2 kitties, and haru might have just ran away... or even worse... it could have been an upstairs window and he could have fallen 20 feet to his doom.... but anyway the moral of the story is... if you have A 16 pound cat do NOT leave the window all the way open.  the screen is not damaged at all, the latches holding it in place just came loose... anyway im still freaked out by the whole thing, but super glad my babies are safe<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ that school is starting up again soon... which means my posting will probably decrease... but i will still be here, an active member of DA.... but i probably wont have too much time to take pictures... but fall is coming up soon and up here in WI we have lots of trees...and a lot of leaves to turn pretty... so im prolly gonna get a lot of shots of those... but then winter hits and i HATE winter (wierd eh?... hopefully one day i'll be out of this not so awesome place) so i usually avoid the cold when i can... but we do have some pretty neat indoor places to go to... so maybe i will have stuff to post... but either way.... nbext week im getting internet at my house... which will make life quite a bit easier (so i dont mooch off my mum's internet haha) so yeah... i may be on even more... but then again maybe not... i have no idea at this point... it all depends on my work and school schedule (which i should still have enough free time to take pictures... but im not gonna promise anything... but i can promise that i wont be going anywhere and i'll still be here to comment/fav and the occasional watch and to enter contests... lol<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ but probably not by popular demand lmao<br /><br />yeah this past year has been a crazy one... moving out and whatnot... and having no internet.... soooo im at starbucks as i type...<br /><br />but on the bright side... i have a bunch of new photography to post...lol<br /><br />so this here is a heads up/apology to my watchers... a ton of new stuff of mine is gonna be in the little new art thingy...<br /><br />but it seems in the past year that i have been MIA, DA does seem to have changed a lot... it seems pretty cool i think... so yeah... be on the lookout for some new stuff.... i dont care if you comment/critique... critiques would be super helpful as i should be taking my photography classes for my degree within the next year.. and it would be stellar to have a slight upper hand in things... so without further adeu... here we go... let the madness begin... haha<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ lol even though the lack of peices may speak otherwise... this winter has just been very.... odd... to say the least... i mean it started in the shittest way at the end of december, but things got so amazing between then and now... so im hoping now to get out more once the snow has melted and take more photos... but either way.. im hoping to get to more digital manipulations soon... and i also have a poem or 2 i wrote in january that i MIGHT post.. they are of the... angry type... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/x/xd.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":XD:" title="XD" /> but right now i couldn't be happier... heh its kinda funny at how unhappy i was last year... for the latter part... i mean i THOUGHT i was happy... but i guess i wasn't... but i am now... and thats happy... and alkaline trio rocks... and you all should find a song by them to listen to<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ so yeah the peachiest thing happend to me today... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" />... i was at school... then on the way home i decided to try my camera yet again... see when i tried to work it a little more than a week ago.. it wouldn't work... so i guess i was just hoping for a miracle this time... well... i guess they really can come true because my camera WORKS! yes it does... so i am really stoked... i was so happy today i almost cried... so yeah.. i think i'll be taking a lot more photos... so expect more.  i guess to those of you who do watch me and like my photos... its a good thing... to those who watch me and don't like my photos... well tough i guess....but really who would actually be watching me if they didn't like my photography... oh well<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ so yeah... today... has literally blown in ways i can never imagine.  i was outside today minding my own damn business taking photos... like a good little photographer... when what happens... my friggin camera just stopped working.  a weird buzzing noise and then it says low battery on the take a picture option...when it comes to actually viewing the pictures... i can do that... just not take pictures or video...so im assuming... no more of that camera... unless i can get it fixed... or get a new one... which prolly wont be until christmas at the very least... so yeah lets just say im not in a good mood and im going to have to have to pace the pictures i have left... so i guess i'll really be cutting down on the photos im submitting<br />
<br />
but yeah to all of my local friends who actually read this... does anyone know anyone that fixes cameras for cheap in the area? heh im not sure if its really broken... but im guessing it is as it isn't taking pictures....<br />
<br />

<br />
let's say you have your dream job... it's friggin amazing, and rewarding(spirtually), and you have the feeling of total bliss...but also let's say that even though it was a rewarding job.. it is killing you... would you...quit and find a new job, or stick with this dream job until the very end?<br />
<br />
alright... imagination caps off...what would you do?<br />
<br />
EDIT: i do not have a job that is killing me...lol... i was just thinking the what-ifs again<br />
<br />
<br />
personally i would stick to it till the end... but i guess my dream job would ultimatly do more good than harm<br /><br />blessed be<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ so yeah we had the (in my book) first actual snow of the season (we had some other piddly stuff before that... but it wasn't much)<br />
<br />
and i will be very blunt about the fact that i hate snow... it sucks<br />
<br />
but for some odd reason this snow just seemed magical... i looked at the millions of dancing crystals...and the whole snow covered ground seemed to light up and sparkle<br />
<br />
i never noticed that about snow before... maybe before i was blind to it<br />
<br />
or maybe the first snow really is magical<br />
