Hey guys!
It really has been a year since my last journal entry! It seems that time goes by so quickly...
Many of you may notice that I've been only responding back to comments and such but not posting any artwork.
Fear not I am still drawing! (sorta) I am working on 80 Dream, the comic I've put off for over a decayed and I know what you re thinking, "You've said this before!" BUT I am currently on page 40! (Dun dun DUUUN)
80 Dream is my final senior project and once the first bulk is done I'll upload them online! (Despite the pages being rushed and trashy)
---Mini shout out to Cherry who is really pulling her weight in helping me with this project I shall see to it that success follows you!
I want to start drawing again soon but the the comic is taking up a ton of my time! I'll figure something out, I definitely owe you guys an upload!
In terms of how I'm getting by, I've been doing pretty well! I am in my final semester of college and I'm excited, terrified, worried...just an array of emotions. The future is unsettling, I have no idea where I will be a year from now. I'm still poor but oh well~ I'm happy! I'm thrilled to be honest, I'm getting to do things a ton of others can't do, I am alive!
My grades in school range between a 3.66-3.80s so I'm doing well! I have a great relationship with my professors! I love most of them!
I wont lie, sometimes I am bummed, I miss the education I got at SVA and I often times day dream of how much more I would have grown as an artist if I could have stayed but It is what it is~ Parsons is MUCH better than nothing~! Since the last time we've talked I've received a massive fund from Shelia Johnson called the "The Design and Diversity Scholarship" that completely cover my room and board here at Parsons! WOO I'M NOT HOMELESS (For now!) AND IT ROCKS! I want to do my best to honor this scholarship and grow up to be someone powerful, strong, and supportive of others who struggle to get by on a daily bases.
But really what I wanted to say in this journal is that you guys are just...incredible, really you are. I've done final presentations about you guys for some of my classes that brought a tear to my professors eye, you are not forgotten. I-do-not-know where I would be with out all of you. They say blood is thicker than water but you all are my true family. Ever since I was a kid there was always someone online who wanted to see me succeed and never gave up on me. Through all tragedy and hardships you've all stuck through it with me and I---there is just nothing I can do to make it up to you guys. I haven't done enough to give back to you all and I swear each and everyone of you are valued. I know I like to tell you all that when I respond to comments but I just wanted to make it official, I NEEDED to make it official, you are ALL the real MVPs.
I've been kept warm during the winters with the coats donated to me a while back, I have read and learned from art books shipped to me, I have fed and clothed myself with all the generous donations, I have been struck with the inspiration to draw from you talented people, I have laughed and smiled through the light you've all shined when I was lost in that dark tunnel and I STILL can not believe that type of kindness that exists on the world wide web. You guys have saved my life, I can truly say you have.
I just needed to start 2015 with this! I hope we have MANY terrific years to come! I look forward to chatting and seeing all of your work, good or bad! I want to see everyone blossom as I know you all will! Together we can get through all odds.
Thank you guys...
sin-fucking-cerly,
Klydekiss
