holy shit is this acct still active?? from like 2017??? I used to frequent your page back when I went by "ThatPartyMedic" and im surprised I even managed to find this page again???
((hey there! i do remember seeing your old name pop up back when i ran this blog! seeing an ask here came as a bit of a shock lmfao
unfortunately, no, this blog is no longer active. i don't have the time or energy to run it anymore. i've also just got more important irl stuff going on :( it was fun while it lasted though, and i'm glad it brought a lot of people joy! i'll still keep the blog up for archival purposes, in case anyone wants to look back on it))
Hey! It's been a while. Hope you and Mun are doing ok. I know that this year has been a real trainwreck and even I am trying to understand what's going on, but I know we can all get through it. Again, hope you guys are doing ok :)
((thanks! we’re doin alright lmao, i’ve personally just been trying to deal with the anxiety of everything going down as best as i can (especially with my mom going back to work a few weeks ago, and even tho her work is providing masks and gloves and enforcing handwashing policies, having temp checks, etc, someone can still end up being careless....... i absolutely hate going out in public during this pandemic, but i made myself a mask to wear for when i do, and avoid being too close to other people while in stores)
but, other than that, i’ve been learning how to animate (upgraded my copy of clip studio paint a few days ago because of their sale so i have unlimited frames to work with!) the past few days, working on my very first animation meme! no idea when i’ll get done with that but yeh, i’m having a lot of fun with it!
and before that i picked up 3d modeling again, specifically sculpting, but i paused that for a bit cuz i spent like a week straight working on a sculpt and burnt out on it hahaha. i’ll get back to it eventually tho
anyway, we hope y’all are doing alright too. stay safe out there! wear a mask and wash ur hands))
hi! you’re wonderful and i miss your content. I love you and I hope you’re taking good care of yourself!
((hey! it’s been a while. unfortunately this blog just kinda dropped off like a couple years ago, sorry about that :(
i’m doing alright tho, pretty stressed with Current Events, but alright past that lmao. i hope the rest of you are doing alright in these uncertain times!
Oh thank god your doing better 🧡 I can understand the 2018 horror year as I had a bad year too, but I hope your well again soon Xx I deleted my old blog and moved to this one so if I’m not recognisable I understand why, missed you lots like I have with a few other blogs, some come back and some don’t, I’m glad your still there though, but sending you and snipes all the best of luck and love 🧡 and thank you :’)
((thank you!! but yeah, it seems 2018 was just not good for most people lmao, not to mention it seeming to last an eternity. some of that stuff on my list i had to think about like, “did that actually happen in 2018, or was that 2017???”
but i’m pretty sure i recognize you! you used to be gingersoulsby, i believe, right? (the “ginger” part of your url is the most telling, if i’m correct lmao) i still remember a lot of the people who frequently sent asks, or liked/reblogged my posts :)
i’ll try to be a little more active from now on, even if it means only answering sniper asks a few times a week!))
i’ve been meaning to update this blog but just not really knowing how to make a comeback post, or just putting it off for another time and suddenly like…..nearly a year has passed between this and the last post. oops.))
((so where have i been?
well, the short answer is…..nowhere, really. i’ve been regularly posting/reblogging stuff on my main blog but, well, to put it bluntly, 2018 wasn’t that great for me, as i’m sure a number of people would say the same lmao
a little list of stuff that happened to me in 2018:
my pc broke down due to an os corruption, and it took 2 months to replace
i got into a relationship. i was very happy! it was my first time being in a relationship in 7 years, and i finally felt good about myself
3 months later, literally to the d a y , my heart was broken. my boyfriend literally broke up with me on our 3 month-iversary. lmao.
i spent the next couple months being in a horrible depression. i had horrific anxiety. genuine suicidal thoughts for the first time in like 10 years. i ate very little, because i just couldn’t, losing nearly 10 pounds over the course of a week and a half (which isn’t healthy, if you couldn’t tell, lol). it was such a rapid change that i genuinely had trouble recognizing myself in the mirror. it took me 3 weeks to get my appetite back
the next couple months were spent mostly recovering. my ex hasn’t talked to me since nearly the end of last september, despite saying he wanted to remain friends. whatever, lol.
one of my cats passed away in mid-november, which sucked, but she was old and i believe she was dying of liver or kidney failure, so it’s good she’s not suffering anymore. she’s buried next to our other cat who died around the same time the year before. now it’s just my little tiny 12 pound chunker that we’ve got left lmao (my mom sometimes talks about kittens she’s seen on websites for local shelters tho so…hmmmm…..)
i’m doing better though. i had a load of icon commissions i did for people on steam recently! literally, all of those commissions i did in the past few weeks have been more than what i did in all of 2018. and i’m grateful for that! it’s partially because i made friends with a small-ish tf2 youtuber who commissioned me for an icon/art for his youtube banner hehehe
that’s about it. 2018 was just sucky, to put it shortly lmfao. both in general, but stuff that was specific to me as well. but anyway, thanks for listening to me rant about stupid stuff that happened last year. hopefully i can get back to this blog on occasion, i enjoyed it when i was active with it haha))
((oh yea, the other day i got an email saying my pc shipped off, and it should be here by the 8th, so i should be back in business any time after that >:^) ))
Hi so forever ago I sent a message asking for snipers colours for a cosplay, I dunno if you remember but!!! I realised I never sent a photo!
And some colours were hard to track down, so I wound up settling for blacks rip. But here you go! The vest is hand made, as well as the prop rifle, and the shirt was dyed along with the patches sewn on!
((i do remember!!! i’m glad that you remembered to send it to me haha
but it all looks really good! it sucks that you couldn’t find the proper colors for the vest, but sometimes it just can’t be helped i guess lmao
((also i’m still hoping to be able to transfer my files from my old hard drive using a sata to usb adapter (i haven’t looked into getting one yet) but if i can’t, i’m gonna unfortunately lose the 3d model i was working on for lazy sniper because i didn’t back it up on a flash drive :^(
there’s pretty much nothing on there i’m too concerned about losing (there’s a few art files i didn’t back up before it died, but it’s only the sai files i’m concerned the most about, i could just pull the png’s off somewhere i uploaded them to), but the model i’d actually be kinda upset about losing if i’m unable to pull it off the hard drive
the model WAS kinda messy, but it was still pretty much almost finished, so i’d be kinda :^/ about losing it))
((hey everyone, the 2nd anniversary of this blog is coming up in a few days (the 24th) but i may not remember to do it on the exact day, so i’m just saying it now while i’m thinking about it, so happy (almost) 2nd anniversary!
i haven’t forgotten about this blog, but i’m still out of a functioning pc (besides this crappy laptop) at the moment; i was never able to fix my pc, so it’s effectively dead and scrapped. and even though i ordered a new one a month ago (like literally a month ago from yesterday), it should have been here by now, but i ran into an issue where i needed to call the company to confirm my order, and even though i did (again, a month ago!), whoever i talked to didn’t actually send my confirmation through, or they confirmed someone else’s order entirely from my call
SO! i thought for the past month that my pc was being built, and i was getting incredibly anxious that it wasn’t here yet, until i got an email from the company asking me to call them again a few days ago, and it turns out it wasn’t even being built and they were getting ready to cancel my order because they were under the impression that i didn’t want the pc because they waited like 3 weeks to email me about it for whatever reason!!! so i’m really mad about that!!!!
so now my pc won’t be here until the middle of march probably, hopefully, if the confirmation ACTUALLY went through this time (don’t worry, i’m never ordering from this company again after this mess)
anyway yeah, that’s all i wanted to say, i’m sorry about neglecting this blog (though, the past couple months have only been because i just CAN’T do anything about it), but i haven’t forgotten about it, and i want to get back to it when i can))
flying-press replied to your post “((i really did intend on getting back to this blog like this month,...”
If possible, you can take out the hard drive from the problematic computer and connect it to your laptop with SATA-to-USB cables to access your files.
((i have thought about doing that, but if the hard drive itself is inaccessible due to this corruption, it’d be useless to try
i also don’t have one of those converter cables unfortunately, so i’d have to take the hard drive out of this laptop and place my pc’s hard drive in it (that’s simple and something i know how to do, if it’s even possible), but i also don’t want to ruin this laptop for good by placing the pc’s hard drive in it and having it do something bad to this laptop (i don’t know what it would do, but SOMETHING)
as experienced with computers i’d like to believe i am, i’m still very inexperienced in the grand scheme of things, so there are things i’d rather not try, and just leave it to people who DO know what they’re doing))
((thanks, i’m really hoping that it’s fixable so that i don’t have to drop another like $800 on a new pc, but i’m still waiting to hear back from the repair shop (i don’t think they work weekends, and my pc decided to do this on a friday, so lucky me) on whether they CAN fix it before i waste my time and money on taking it there only to have them say they can’t fix it))
((i really did intend on getting back to this blog like this month, but i’ve ran into a particularly.......terrible issue lmao
long story short, my pc is currently unusable and i have to rely on my old laptop (which is disgustingly slow) to do things until i can get my pc fixed if possible, or replace it if it can’t be
my pc somehow corrupted an essential program necessary for loading windows itself (winload.exe), and i can’t get past a recovery error screen no matter what i do, so i’m looking into taking it into a local repair shop to see if they can fix it, and if not i’ll probably have to replace it entirely. i’m potentially going to lose a ton of files off my hard drive if they can’t fix it or pull the files off the hard drive. none of the stuff from this blog will be lost thankfully, because i backed it up to a flash drive a while back, but i might lose a ton of other files i haven’t backed up
my pc had been crashing incredibly frequently over the past few weeks, and i knew that eventually i’d have to replace components in it or the whole thing entirely, i just didn’t think that something like this would happen, and this soon
i’ve tried installing my cintiq’s drivers on this laptop, but since this laptop has been sitting collecting dust for over 2 years since i got this pc, it hasn’t been updated, and the cintiq’s drivers require something from a particular windows update to be installed properly. i’m still going to try to update it as far as i can to install the drivers so that i can work on art (and also try to take small commissions to help offset costs), but i’m not particularly hopeful i’ll be able to
anyway, that’s the state of where both i am and this blog is at, just letting y’all know))
holy shit how much did I miss-- I have been inactive for so long cuz I didnt have space or time to redownload Tumblr on my phone aaaaaaaa ;; just asking if I missed anything BIG cuz I wanna stay updated with u dude, thx! ♥
((nothing’s really happened to my knowledge, this blog’s been inactive for about 4-ish months, so nothing’s happened here either lmao))
Hey I hope you had a wonderful holiday. I read what happened in September and I am hoping you are doing well! Keep up the good work, kiddo! *internet friend hugs* (also your work has inspired me to start an ask blog. It isn't up yet but it is a work in progress :v)
((hey thanks, and you too! mine was alright, didn’t do anything special lmao
i’m really sorry about this blog having been inactive for the past few months :^( mostly because of stress from the holidays, but also some other things. hopefully i’ll try and pick things back up in 2018
but hey that’s cool! and i wish you luck on your ask blog when you get it started!))
