Hello Dearies!
So... so much for those uploads I was going to do. Art's been done, but I just can't get time/get motivated/get to a scanner to upload them.
With that in mind, to my more prolific friends: How do you find time to work on your art? Also, how do you feel about having them out there in the world where anyone can see them, and by extension, comment on them? I'm realizing that I'm a little afraid to put my stuff out in the open (mostly because I don't see them as worth someone looking at... I'm my own worst critic...)
How do you get over this kind of thing? I'm not sure what to do...
On a lighter note, Spring break starts this Friday for me, so I'll be home for a week! I can't wait to see people again! The way this semester is going, I need this break to be fun. Calculus and Physics are so fracking hard...!!
I hope you all are having a decent time of it and I'm sure I'll write again!

I'm Back (+ Where I Went and Why!)
Hello Everyone!! I'm sorry that I've been gone for a long time, but I've returned for a little while! So! Where was I? That's actually a more complicated question than might at first be obvious. Thing the First: I ended up taking a teaching job in China! I've been teaching children English in Beijing and while it's been a wild ride, it has been well worth it! Over the last few years, I've learned a lot about myself and what I wanted from life being here and getting used to being in a place so far from home. Has it been easy? Oh hell no. Being in a place that is so different from what I was used to has pushed me in ways I could never have expected in both good an bad ways. I've become more adaptable, that's definitely for sure, but I've also gotten more anxious... Which leads us to... Thing the Second: I had/have a lot of anxiety about being online and putting myself out there. So, growing up I was partially raised by my grandparents. I love them dearly, and they taught me a
OH my!!
Hello everyone!
Sorry for not being here more often! This semester has been crazy on so many levels!
Art has been done but I don't have access to good coloring supplies...! And a decent scanner!
I come home for Thanksgiving break soon, so (hopefully) watch out for uploads!
Love y'all!

Leaving Work... aaaaand Onto School!
Hello Friends and Fiends!
Sooo.... I uploaded a few things... ~otlplz (https://www.deviantart.com/otlplz) I guess I just can't manage to keep uploads steady... It really takes a night of shenanigans with KeeperOfCoffins with her pushing me to upload to get me to do so... My motivation is as unsteady as my uploads... ^^; Frankly, I've been so busy I've considered leaving dA multiple times, but I keep it open nonetheless... We'll see where this leads!
Anywhoo, I'm heading back to school in a week or so, and tomorrow (today) is my last day of work (FINALLY) so packing and sorting and getting things for my dorm again is a thing! I'm going into my Junior year, so hard classes
Back from School, aaand Onto Work.
Hello Friends!!
I apologize for my ever-growing absence!!! Honestly, I wish I could be on here more often, but that just doesn't seem to be in the cards!!
I came home from school a few weeks ago, took one week of to unpack, then dived full-force into my job at Wendy's... My job which I work until, at most, and hour after their closing time (1 am) and then awake until dawn. This causes me to sleep until anywhere between 1 and 3 pm so my day is pretty skewed!! ^^;
This doesn't mean my creativity is completely gone, but in general I'm very tired all the time so posting is problematic... Maybe I'll be able to do so soon; I just need the right

Honestly? I never thought of people hating my stuff(even the stuff that's really bad xD). I always just think about how excited I am for all my dA friends to see what awesome-ness I just created.
