It’s been 12 hours and I’m still listening to A Moon Shaped Pool.

So yeah, I guess you can say that I love this album it’s absolutely perfect.

So the school year is finally ending. Meaning that I can finally stop being all mopey and shit and start returning to form.

I really

really

want to get into the habit of weekly blog posts.

And I’m gonna try my best to establish a schedule starting in May through July. Mainly for Post Crusade since that more or less needs more attention.

Also planning to open commissions and also making commission streams and the likes.

Oh, and Diaries is going to soft-reboot again. I haven’t updated that blog because I’ve been locked in a linear story that I’ve lost interest in. Third time’s the charm, right? Sometime by the end of May, I’ll be returning to Diaries with something nice and new.

So yeah. Stuff will be happening. Weh.

How Ponify ruined my life

Possibly the most horrifying thing that has ever happened to me occurred today. So I’m in a creative writing class at university right now and we had to print out twenty-five copies of our first, one page assignment to distribute to the class. I had to print mine at the computer lab as I don’t have a printer, but here are the three crucial facts that made this the worst mistake of my life.

1. Sometimes, when you log into Google on Chrome, it activates all of your extensions, even ones you’ve deactivated.

2. In high school, my friends and I got really into Ponify (a words replacing chrome extension) and switched the preferences so we could read political articles and have congress get into a “rousing snow ball fight” and the like.

3. Ponify reverted to its original My Little Pony lingo when opened on a new computer’s chrome.

So when I distributed my twenty-five copies of this I noticed the word “everypony”, my heart seized up and dropped into my stomach, and with my imminent death approaching, I began furiously correcting all twenty-five of them. My teacher, confusedly, agreed to let me correct them as I was too infuriated and ashamed to say my mistake aloud. 

I just realized, however, that the line “as she watched the binding fall away in her hand” was changed to “as she watched the binding fall away in her hoof”.

And I just had to send this email:

Pony randomizer challenge! Here are the rules: You need to take a screenshot and draw what you get!

Pheraps you need some background characters, but are too lazy to make your own? Or maybe you just need a good opportunity for practice?
Well, try this, you might end up with hillarious results!

 - You may pick colors that are roughy the same as what the palette shows.
 - This pony creator has over 80 hairstyles and 60 characteristics.


Good luck with that, buds. Ah. Also… I was ill, now i’m back on track. Yay.

Yeah. Love ya.

Blind with an eyepatch? That’s a bit redundant, ain’t it.

Anyways, aaaaaaaaaaaa she’s too cute *2*

I’ll be honest, it kind of sucks being in the middle of the spectrum as an artist.  On the plus side, can draw better than stick figures.  On the down side, can’t draw realistically enough to wow people, and can’t draw crazily stylized enough to amaze them either.  Welcome to the world of acceptable yet unimpressive art where your work is filler to tide people over until the good artists swoop in and get in the spotlight.
