Still alive.

Fri Nov 6, 2009, 3:33 PM
  • Mood: Peaceful
I'm writing to let you know that I'm still alive and well, but not completely back yet. I'm still healing and growing from the events that happened to me this year and my life has been changing rapidly within the past 10 months. I'm also in college.

I never thought I'd be back to school, but here I am. Right now I'm taking prep courses in English since I'll be majoring in it, and of course math, because I suffer dyslexia, a learning disability. Once I get through these prep courses, I will be at Fox Valley Tech for the next two years taking the transfer program to UWO. There I'll finish the last two years with a degree in education, becoming an English teacher.

It's very ironic that my path in life would boil down to this. I've hated school and most of the teachers with a passion, but I could write a novel on why I chosen this path. But I have my two biggest reasons: 1. To reach out to other students and help them while I enrich myself, 2. To reclaim my past, present and the future. Nothing is holding me back anymore. Not even a speech impediment, after finding out that teachers with lisps do exist. I'll give it my best shot. Even if I don't make it, I still have other options to fall back on.

I think 2010 may be a wonderful year ahead for me. In the meantime, I'm also taking the time to let everyone know that I'm almost out of my art block so expect new artwork by the end of the year. take care everyone.

P.S. What are y'all doing for the holidays? What are your wishes for this Christmas? Feel free to share!

My name is Lisa Miller, a 26-year-old woman who is trying to find her place in this world. I'm an artist who is floating between various career paths, but for now I'll settle with volunteering at the library starting next year, eventually becoming a library assistant when the economy gets better. I'm also debating whether or not I should go to college. I'm still unsure what to go for and it will hang in the air for awhile. Once I figure things out, hopefully in a few years, I will become a student again. My biggest goal in life is to live a prosperous, meaningful life, reaching out to others and do things that really matter. I also have a strong desire to find love and marry someday, starting a family of my own. Hopefully soon, that will happen, though I'm not in that big of a rush.

In the meantime, I have way too much time in my hands. I love vintage video games, symphonic metal, decorating my apartment, walking on nature trails, museums, shopping, libraries, bookstores, and of course painting and drawing. I also love sitcoms, anime, manga, and anthro based cartoons.

New friends are always welcome and I'm always looking for new people to talk to and I love rpgs. Feel free to add me to IM at any time. It will be wonderful to meet all of you!

You have tons of pretty nice BMFM artworks here! Although most of the characters are unfamiliar to me... :XD:

You're welcome! These are just original characters I had for rpgs and stuff since 2000-2001. Once I get out of my massive artblock from hell, hopefully soon, I may start writing mini profiles. However, I've stopped writing fiction 6 years ago. It just became stressful for me to deal with and pretty much lost interest. That and I'm in college now. I'm hoping to post a new piece before the end of the year, now that things are under control again. Take care!

Canon characters are wonderful too and you're so good at that! I may draw them once in a blue moon but the 2006 series had put that on hold for a bit.

RPGs are fun though. They definitely spark creativity and new ideas plus character development which may help an artist or writer at some point. Everyone has their own preferences.

Meh, I can't take the new episodes as the same cartoon. Actually I couldn't even force myself to wath an entire episode :crazy:

I see that. That's just isn't my kind of stuff :) I don't even like RPG videogames :D

*sigh* Tell me about it. Life's here is just as...'blah'...although I'm free from collage and all. I'm just sad that I don't really have that passion to draw non-stop and such anymore like I used to. Collage killed it off. Now and then I'd think of drawing something but often, in the end, I never did them because it feels such a chore now *slumps on the keyboard with a depressing sigh*

*hugs*

I think in time drawing might come back to you one of these days. Perhaps it just needs a break like i do.
