So i just noticed that i haven't actually submitted anything for nearly a year now. This is a problem. How will i resolve this so called problem? Well i'll tell you how, i'll submit something.

Now the reason for my absence is simply that the ideas i had were too large or simply were never meant for pixel or emotes. Months upon months, i say that like i was thinking constantly, I wasn't. Every now and then for months (that sounds better) i would think of something i could make an emote do, once i try to make it and realise i couldn't i became quite disillusioned with myself and simply gave up.   

I am currently in the process of notepadding, a word i use for making notes in Notepad, a bunch of ideas that i will start making and eventually submitting once again. What i hope is to experience to pleasure in simplicity once again.

Thank you.

What's up?.... Nothing i've never been there.

Firstly the title is a referring to what this journal will be about. My life currently. Secondly it also refers to the book i have just finished reading. The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. This first paragraph will be me trying to convince you why this book is so awesome and that if you have a heart of gold, you should read it. The characters. The characters are too great for words. In the whole of the first book there was not one character i disliked. The style of humour Douglas Adams uses is brilliant and very sarcastic and the chemistry the characters have with each other is mesmerizing and i didn't want to put it down. That's about it it i'm afraid, if you need a book to read, read this.


Now the real thing. My boring life. Right now at this very moment. Well not right at this moment as such as im doing charity/community work. But on a regular day my life is stuck in a some what catch 22 situations. What's a catch 22 situation? It can readily be described as 'damned if you don't, damned if you don't'. I'm a 21 year old NEET and the simple reason why i can't get a job is this, employers want experience, i can't get experience because no one is willing to employ me. Fuck. So the only option i have available to me is to do off courses here and there and the current 'course' i'm on does a lot of community work. This 'course' is a full time course, in other words, its fucking tiring, especially considering i have little motivation by not being paid. This leaves me with little free time and when i do have time in the evenings im so tired i can't be bothered to watch movies and anime like i normally would. Im even finding it a little difficult to make anything for Deviant Art. So that's about it for the big part.


A few small things i'll add. Having to go out every single day has its good points. 1. I saw a guy that looks liked Zeltzer. 2. I saw a guy who looked like Kevin Spacey. I also decided to get a new mouse for my laptop, its a trackball type opposed to the regular style. My parents chickens have started to lay eggs.

So a nothing-important-journal but a journal-i-wanted-to-make-and-did-not-know-anything else to write about.

I haven't written a journal entry for three years, mainly because i didn't think anybody would actually read them, hell i don't know if this one will get read but i thought i would write one anyway. I just purchased a three month sub so i thought i'd write a new entry after trying my hand at making a journal, which failed, i managed to change some text to purple and put Steedy up there but i doubt i will ever get the hang of CSS.


I have just yesterday made my 99th Deviation and incidentally one of my favorite from my own collection. So what i thought was for my 100th i would top that and try a more adventurous, detailed and generally all round my best work yet. The problem is inspiration, well i guess inspiration isn't really the issue as much as maybe my own vision of making it. I have the ideas but transferring them into pixels is a whole different ball game. (If any body has any inspirational, insightful or cool quotations or idioms or the like then please  let me know because i struggle to come up with them, that is of course optional.)

I thank you for your time should you have read this far down but don't worry if you didn't i won't hold it against you.


PS: If there are any cool things you can do with a subscription that you can't without and are easily missed, do let me know because this is all new to me.
