I still have the normal problems in my life as I did the month before, but it all seems so much more bareable now that I have love in my life. Honestly I really should be more worried about how I'm going to finish all of my projects before the semester ends, deal with graduation tasks and having to transfer in the fall to somewhere, but all I can seem to worry about right now is the next time I'll see her.

I've been a diehard romantic for as long as I can remember (romantic comedies are probably my favorite movie genre), and all I can say is that if this is where my love is starting from, I can only imagine what it will blossom into with time.

I love you so much,
My cute loveable squeaky vampire-in-training kitten.
-Adam

Since my last journal update I'd gotten laid off of my old job, received a new job pertaining to my actual major and then gotten rehired back to the old job as well with a substantial raise now that I have a degree.

In the past 2 weeks I must admit to smiling more than I have in the past 3 years combined. Its a fantastic feeling to be flustered, confused, calm, and comfortable all at the same time.

This weekend I'm doing something I haven't done in a long time, I'm going to church again. Previously I passed a harsh judgement on religion without giving it much thought. I won't go into the reasons for that here though.

But I really don't want this string of amazing events to come crashing down, and if going to church once a week and embracing religion keep it going strong, then I am perfectly willing to go along the path that I had shunned before.

Truth be told, if it wasn't for book marks I'd have forgot I had a dA account.

About that updating thing..
I'll get to it eventually.. (which may in fact mean never)

Still haven't worked on anything artsy recently.. I've tried designing things but I need to get used to using pencils again.. I'm so out of practice.

Currently on my agenda art wise (in no particular order) :
1: Design a 4 legged Imperial Guard Setinel that doesn't look retarded.
2: Design an active suspension / tire system for a 2 wheeled 1 person car (not motorcycle)
3: Draw up a weapon system for bulwhark's prize.
4: Draw my cat dood for Dt3r's prize.
5: Write up plot for my Rifts Game.
6: Scribe a new constitution for America that doesn't support wage abuse, inequality, politicking, and the rich getting richer while everybody else gets screwed over.
7: Do a Colouring Job of Beamer's Nova, cuz its like awesome, but needs colour for expression of mood.
7: Get my life in some sort of order (and yes that is an art.)[see how there are two 7's!]

Once again thanks for your patience, hope to present something to all soon. (I've got rough pencillings of several bits done).. ]]> ~xboxguy http://xboxguy.deviantart.com/journal/6939393/ http://xboxguy.deviantart.com/journal/6939393/ Wed, 02 Nov 2005 20:01:27 PST
So I just finished my CCNA 3 class and got an A in it (hooray/W00t! goes to alex)

Anyways, I haven't touched this site since this semester started, and I still have 2 art contests to draw out for people, I promise I won't forget.

Whenever I get a chance I'll try to draw something to make sure people know I am alive, however playing a D&D game on tues. Rifts on thurs. and Running a Rifts game friday afternoon keeps my free time occupied pretty well. Then I also have to add in Battlefield 2, Battlefront 2 and Halo 2 as my weekend activities.

So all things considered I have about 200 hours of extracurricular activites per week, so any additional load may in fact explode my head.

See you when I'm free to work on webart.

For all of you who still patiently sit watching me.. thanks

For those of you who have grown impatient.. I understand why you chose to stop.

See you when life calms down (and before I die)

This coming week and last week I have been working full time in order to earn enough money to build a new Gaming Rig (PC). So since I've been doing that I haven't had time to say; Paint my Warhammer 40k Armies, Draw my two contest winners their prizes, start assembling the PC I'm building and I've been generally falling behind with Deviant Art.

To make things more interesting at some point I need to A) Order Books for the coming Fall Semester B) Talk to a councellor to see if I can get at least one BS degree this year (Hopefully 2) and C) Actually take my A+ Exams , CCNA Voucher Exam, CCNA Test 1

So please be patient with me, I'll work on well actually working on stuff as soon as possible.

Take care all,
Adam

Whomever can takes a screenshot closest to 700 (and over) and post a comment with a link to it can request that I draw them whatever they want, albiet whenever I have the time. Which will most likely be later this week/next week.

Best of Luck.

SO, if you want me to draw something for you, get 550 and take a screen capture of it, post it as a scrap in your journal and comment me with a link to it. Whoever gets 500 (or closest to it with a link to a screencap of it) gains the ability to ask me to draw (pen or pencil, black+white or colour) what ever the hell you want, I don't promise that it will be good art, but I will try my best to please.

So best of Luck.

So my family was supposed to leave for vacation to South Carolina, North Myrtle beach last night, however, we just spent the night in a hospital as my mum's mum is well going nuts because some chemical a nurse at the nursing home gave her to calm her down..

In theory, I'll still be on vacation all next week, but whether I leave on Friday or Saturday I dunno..

In fact I would like to thank all of our soldiers, those on the front lines, at foreign military bases or in Washington or otherwhere that are defending our country. No one asked you to sacrifice your time for the service of this nation and yet you volunteered for the job, and that is the most noble thing I can think of anyone doing.

Thanks for your service in defense of the American way of life whether it be directly for our country or for the Afghani's or Iraq's or anyone else in the world. I salute you.

Perhaps I'm trying to apply too much logic to my feelings.. but I love this girl and I have for a long time.. and it'd be nice to actually work up the strength/passion/confidence to ask her to go out with me. I just keep getting frustrated with myself when I don't and then make extravagant plans that will probably never happen to make myself feel better.

Long story short, Insecurity + Lack of confidence = Sad Me

I long for the days when I was young.. with no responsibility and sitting around being bored.. Its hard to even find the time to be bored anymore..

But anyways the sun is always a pick-me-up as a sunroof makes for an awesome replacemet for a broken A.C. unit in my car.

If I get a chance to sit in front of a Solidworks PC this summer I'll try and see if I can't get some new stuff up on dA.

/bow Thanks for your continued patience.

-Adam

Ask me 4 questions.

Any 4, no matter how personal, private or random.
I have to answer them honestly. I have to answer them all.
In turn, you can post this message in your own journal and you have to answer the questions that are asked to you.

I think my next major project is to finish painting my Warhammer 40k armies (Imperial Guard and Tau) as they've kinda stagnated for a while.. I'll take in progress pics for scraps and one major pic of each army when I finish..
