                <description><![CDATA[ So, I'm back at SOU. It's really, really great to be back at school and in Ashland. I hadn't even realized how much I missed this place until I got here. (Though, midterms haven't exactly been fun, but when are they ever?) And, several weeks ago, I learned Reiki I!(Some info here, if you're curious: <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.reiki.org/faq/WhatIsReiki.html">[link]</a>) It's seriously the best decision I've ever made in my life, and to be able to say that with certainty is saying a lot. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br />Also just turned 22 last Saturday, and got some lovely presents including The Sims 3 and Brian Froud's World of Faerie. Also got a subscription as a little present to myself. *goes off to find more shinies for my profile*<br /><br /><div class="credit"><a href="http://blissart.deviantart.com/art/Royalle-73399407">GET THIS CSS</a></div> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So, some updates... I haven't been very active on DA for the past month, because fortunately I got a job! I'm on a city maintenance crew building hiking trails. It's nice to be out in the woods all day, but at the end of the day I'm usually too exhausted to do much. I still have a bunch of drawings to scan, but I'm probably not going to get to them until September.<br /><br />I'm also going back to Southern Oregon University in the fall, and the panic is already setting in, even though I know this year is going to be better than the last two. At least I have a ceramics class to look forward to.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Hopefully I should be able to finish some drawings and paintings! It's funny, when I was busy with finals, I didn't want to do anything but draw. And now that it's over, I'm like, "Meh." *flop* But I've been working on some pieces that are almost finished, so hopefully I'll get them up soon.<br /><br />But in the meantime (gasp!) more photography! It seems like I'm uploading nothing but photography lately. But these were just too cool not to share.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ <a href="http://news.deviantart.com/article/68192/">[link]</a><br /><br />Check it out! This one is fruity-themed. You have until the 24th to enter! Now I must answer some fruity questions. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/boogie.gif" width="25" height="25" alt=":boogie:" title="Boogie!" /><br /><br /><b>1. If you were a fruit living in a fantasy fruity land, what fruit would you be?</b><br /><br />A ripe red cherry. Cute, small, and sweet, but bite me too hard and you'll break your tooth.<br /><br /><b>2. What kind of job would you have there?</b><br /><br />I'd run a kitschy little gift shop, selling random, interesting junk.<br /><br /><b>3. What fruit would you have as a bf/gf there?</b><br /><br />A tall, sturdy banana. He's nice and laid-back, but will occasionally do a sexy banana-dance for me.<br /><br /><b>4. What kind of romance would you have with him/her?</b><br /><br />Adorably soppy and romantic. We surprise each other with chocolates, love poems, and midnight serenades. Sometimes we go dancing in the rain.<br /><br /><br />I get to draw someone else's fruity persona, they'll get to draw mine, and we'll all upload them on the 29th!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ The year's almost over already. It went by so fast, it almost feels like it never happened. Or, rather, the first half of the year felt like I was having one of those vague and disturbing nightmares that went on and on. And the second half felt like I had woken up, lying in bed, still almost asleep, trying to make sense of it all while the hours passed by like minutes. Now, I need to wake up and face the world again. <br /><br />Here are some resolutions, which I'm actually going to keep this year. I might add some more later.<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblue.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblue:" title="Bullet; Blue" /> Draw more. No excuses. If I'm feeling uninspired, I'll just scribble until something comes to life. But I'll try to draw for at least half an hour a day.<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblue.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblue:" title="Bullet; Blue" /> Post more stuff on DA. There's a few things I've been meaning to scan and upload. But I also promise not to upload crap just because I feel like I need to upload something.<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblue.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblue:" title="Bullet; Blue" /> Exercise more. Do stretches, at the very least.<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblue.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblue:" title="Bullet; Blue" /> Read more.<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblue.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblue:" title="Bullet; Blue" /> Write more.<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblue.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblue:" title="Bullet; Blue" /> Paint more.<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblue.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblue:" title="Bullet; Blue" /> Sculpt more.<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblue.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblue:" title="Bullet; Blue" /> Try a new style of art.<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblue.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblue:" title="Bullet; Blue" /> Organize my room.<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblue.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblue:" title="Bullet; Blue" /> Go back to school.<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblue.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblue:" title="Bullet; Blue" /> Keep looking for a job.<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblue.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblue:" title="Bullet; Blue" /> Stop making excuses for why I can't accomplish my goals.<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblue.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblue:" title="Bullet; Blue" /> Stop deluding myself when I need to face the truth.<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblue.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblue:" title="Bullet; Blue" /> Stop shutting people out to avoid getting hurt. There's no need to fear pain of any kind as long as I have an artistic outlet to express it. <br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblue.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblue:" title="Bullet; Blue" /> Most importantly, if I slip up, I will not declare failure on all fronts. I'll learn from it and try again.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ It's been a while since I posted any work, but my birthday is coming up in a few days and I'll probably be getting a digital camera! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/boogie.gif" width="25" height="25" alt=":boogie:" title="Boogie!" /> This means I can finally post all the stuff that won't fit in my scanner, as well as some cute fairy and mermaid figurines. And of course some photography  too! Also, I have some more things I need to get around to scanning.<br /><br />Bah. It's 2 AM and I can't sleep. *is bored*<br /><br />EDIT: It's here!! A Canon Powershot G10! My parents ordered it through the mail, so it didn't arrive right on my birthday, but it was worth the wait. It still needs a memory card, and I'll be getting one tomorrow so I can finally take some pictures! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/e/excited.gif" width="23" height="19" alt=":excited:" title="OMG! I can't contain my excitement!" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>
