No, I’m fine. It’s just the more I look at the news, the more I look at what’s going on in politics I can’t help but to think that things are going downhill. It seems like the country is headed for a dark time. I’m not a pessimistic person (or rather I try not to be) but I can’t help myself with this.
Now, I really can’t say I’ve completely developed my opinion of the Presidential candidates, but all parties involved give me a funny feeling. Obama in particular. Something just doesn’t sit right with me about that man. Now, my opinion could be (or is most likely) influenced by my mother. But then again, I trust and respect her opinion. She’s never really been wrong about this kind of thing that I can remember. I dislike this kind of stuff - Politics, all this talk of racism, war it all gives me a bad feeling in my chest that I can’t ignore. I wish I could just completely avoid these things but given that it’s an election year, it’s pretty much impossible. I suppose that the only thing I can do is hope that everything works out, seeing as I’m not eighteen yet and I can’t really influence it at all.
Jeez, I just don’t know anymore.
In my life though, I’d have to say things are going really REALLY well. I’ve stopped dragging my feet on drawing chapter two of Sword of Heaven (although I need to do work on Devil’s Advocate still) - There’s only 5 pages left to be drawn and seven to be scanned, lettered and toned. All in all, I’m getting the chapter finished up (Hooray!). That leaves me with a lot of work ahead of me still, I haven’t finished scripting chapter three yet, and I can’t start on the thumbnails until then, so it’s gonna be a while before I start work on the actual pages. But, it’s content before art so I really shouldn’t be complaining!
My cosplay stuff has taken an interesting (and altogether very wonderful turn) in the way that I’m now part of a “group” (really, they’re more like my online family XD) and there’s some talk (or planning) to go to ACEN next year! This means I have to get a job so I can save up but I’m really REALLY looking forward to it. It’d be my first con though XD I’m gonna be soooooo nervous!
I’m having a really blast learning to play the guitar better! I know a little bit yeah, and I’m still doing the whole “self-teaching” thing - I don’t know if I’d want to take lessons or not…I’d really like to improve though, it’s just such a huge thing to me and I’d really like to be the best I can at it.
Recently, however, I came to the conclusion that maybe I’m not cut out for being a serious “singer” because, let’s face it, I don’t have a very broad range and I have some issues keeping in key - it’s probably something I could fix with voice lessons but I don’t know if I’d be able to do something like that. But hey, not all the great musicians were great with vocals and there are people who can barely sing at all who are successful in the music industry so, I could make it XD My song writing has gotten a lot better as of late and I attribute that to the continued support and encouragement of my friends and family. I don’t have very much faith in myself and I tend to seriously doubt my “talents” and having them back me up really helps me out. I love them all SOOOOOO very much.
To me, this is getting a little long, so I’m gonna cut out for now.
