News

Thu Dec 11, 2008, 4:40 PM

_{Hey, I come bearing some news that is slightly sad, but very necessary.

I am taking a break from dA and facebook, and recreational use of the internet in general.

The reason for this is actually because of a text that I recieved last night from my friend Mark. He told me that God had told him that the reason I was going through these trials is so that God can mold me into a better Christian and to be more of the person He wants me to be.
While that was important for me to hear, it was the second part that really caught my attention.

He said that our God is a jealous God and He wants ALL of me. So, that got me thinking about how much time I spend doing other stuff rather than spending time with God. To those of you who know me in real life, that might be a shock, but it's true.
So, I have decided that I will be taking this break to spend some much needed personal growth time with God. I can't do all my worship time corporately (aka: in a church setting), I need some private time with God everyday, and I'm not getting that.

Also, I am having some really hard things going on in my life. There's a lot of family medical problems that are going on right now. Also, I am having some problems with some friends, which is REALLY draining me a lot. There's also some of the old thoughts of depression coming back, which is really painful.

I really just need to get back to God, and I need to spend some time just me and God. It's nothing against you guys, it's just a personal thing.

If any of you would like to pray for me, I would greatly appreciate that However, if you're not religious, anything that you feel like doing to say that you're thinking about me will be greatly appreciated too

I love you all!
I'll be back in about a month.

I will be replying to your pictures and comments when I get back from my leave of absence

See you in a month!

Well HI!

Thu Dec 4, 2008, 1:05 PM

_{Hey there ! I am back as of late Sunday night from Missouri. I JUST finished reading all your journals, comments, and looking at deviations. Man, you guys are awesome :]

Missouri was awesome, btw. I got to be in eight states in five days! I was in: Minnesota (where I live!), Iowa, Missouri, Kentucky (went to Paducah), Tennessee (Memphis! and Beale Street ), Arkansas (drove through it... but stopped for gas, so it counts!), Illinois (coming back home), and Wisconsin (eww cheese!). Oh, and the people down south are crazy... it was 55 degrees and my cousins are all bundled up in their heavy jackets, mittens, hats, etc. What's with that? I wait until it's 45 or below to even BRING my jacket to school. I don't wear my jacket until it's 35 or below, and I don't bundle up until it's 20 or colder. I'd like to see my cousins experience a Minnesota winter lol

Anyway, I wanted to let you all know that I have posted a few new pieces of art and I updated my deviantID that said I was still sixteen lol I haven't been sixteen since July XD

Also, the photomanip that I updated earlier today is the start of a more serious line of artwork, I think. Don't get me wrong, I'll still have a lot of fun stuff, but I think that I might start doing more serious pieces - more personal stuff.

There are a few reasons for this, if you're interested. The first reason is that I have a lot happening in my life right now, there's a lot of stuff that's hard and I'm fighting to get through it. Doing these serious pieces is sort of my way of saying, "Yeah, it's hard, but I'm still going to trust in God." It's just a little affermation of my faith. The second reason is that I really want to use all of my abilities to bring glory to God. I want to show Him and everyone else that God is number one in my life. Therefore, I'm going to do pieces that are centered around Him.

Like I said, however, this doesn't mean I won't do anything like the old stuff anymore, it just means that along with the old stuff, I'm going to be doing more serious stuff.

I hope you enjoy my new stuff

Also, I am still offering photomanips to anyone who wants one!

An Update

Tue Nov 25, 2008, 12:07 PM

^{Sup? I just wanted to update all of you on my life, since I know that you are oh, so interested in my life haha

First off, I'm heading to Missouri tonight to visit my family down there and get some good R&R - which is much needed. I'll be back on Sunday night and I may or may not be able to go online between now and Monday (definately no computer time on Sunday night, too tired). I have twelve hours of driving down and twelve back. Luckily, I don't have to drive, but I have to keep my dad awake so he CAN drive. Fun fun.
Oh, and I haven't packed yet lol

Second, I REALLY want to do some photo manips, idk why, but I really want to do some. So, please request some I'll open up ten slots at a time and I would LOVE to do your character :]
However, I'm not good at adding markings (like wings, pink spots, etc.) I can TRY but I won't promise anything great. I can, however, change eye colors.
So, if you want to request a photo manip, here's the form!:
Username: your username, simple lol
Character Name: simple, again lol
Do you want the name in the pic? yes or no
Text: Anything you want to be the focus. Could be name, or something else.
Sub-text: Anything else you want it to say. Lyrics, a quote, etc.
Colors: a color scheme
Pictures: any pictures that you have of your character
Other: umm anything else you want done

I'll put a few samples in my gallery in a little bit

That's all I have for you
TTYL

Yay, I'm going to update all of you bored people on the current events in my life! Sounds like fun, right?

Well, I was sick the past two days, but I am forcing myself to feel better. I even went to church tonight; because I actually am feeling much better than I was this morning.

I SAW CHELLE!!! omg I haven't seen Rochelle in FOREVER, and I was the first person to see her tonight!!! It made me happy

I'm leaving for youth convention tomorrow!! omg! It's going to be amazing!! Click the [link] and be educated on the amazingness that is Minnesota Youth Convention! (yes, I live in Minnesota, and it's AWESOME, so there

)

Let's see, what else is going on in my life...? umm Nothing hugely noteworthy.

OH! Philly chesesteaks from Dominos are not as good as ACTUAL Philly cheesesteaks, and I know. I used to live in Pennsylvania, and I've been to Philly many times lol

Remember:
