Gone. But not forgotten~

Alrighty. So looks like a slightly tough decision has been made.

I've decided to scrap this blog. BUT NOT ENTIRELY! There's a catch.

Although this blog seems pretty useless, I've decided to create a new one for artistic as well as personal purposes. Of course I'm still a little stumped on what username/url to go by entirely... But that doesn't matter as of now. Somethings sorta' dawned on me.

Of course the career path of my selection might not entirely reflect on this, but I can't keep hoarding all my art to myself in fear of it getting stolen. I can't sit back and watch all these awesome artists build connections and put themselves out there while I'm just sitting safely on the sidelines. I have to get myself out there, build a name for myself artistically, and make some new friends + connections along the way. That's how artists gain recognition. Not by sitting around keeping piled up .psd files on their harddrive, but by showing their work to the world and putting themselves out there.

That being mentioned, I've always tried to keep a low profile for myself as to not attract any trouble nor negative attention whatsoever. But of course that's not always fun now is it? I've created this tumblog in order to keep in touch with my friends as well as give tumblr a chance and browse for my own pleasure. Collecting beautiful pieces to share with others that just happen to traverse my blog. Kind of like a scrapbook of some kind.

As of lately, I've been pretty bummed out letting my fear of having my art stolen get me to this point. The fact that I've been so worried on having my art stolen in any matter that it's stopped me from sharing my artistic abilities with others. Building friendships, learning to communicate, and the understanding of art itself even has provided me with the tools I've ever needed to grow in this world.

Of course there are blatant thieves out there who're ready to snag a hot juicy fresh piece of work, but there are cautionary measures that can be taken in order to prevent such a heinous act. I won't let that stop me any longer. Yes, I am scared, and I doubt that I'll keep another blog/piece of social media for no more than a month. But I AM confident enough to push through that feeling of doubt and continue to grow as an artist. To show people out there my work and what I have to offer in the art industries. To strive in becoming better in skill as well as talent.

There will be days that I may regret, making an art/personal blog. But with all these wonderful artists coursing through tumblr, showing off their talents, building connections, gaining the recognition they deserve, that's given me the courage to take a shot at it.

So as for this blog? I'll leave it up for the viewing pleasures of tumblr users. Who doesn't wanna find some random blog with inspirational pretty pictures??

To all the followers I've gained, (and lost), thanks so much for joining me on this mini-journey.

Catch you guys on the flip-side. ;DD

**A Message For My Friends: As soon as I get my new blog up and running, I'll contact you guys. I just gotta' come up with a suitable username/URL and get some priorities straightened out IRL.

Okie dokie tumblr, looks like my interview for Job Corp has gone WAAAAY better than expected.

Of course that doesn't mean I won't still be keeping a realistic view of what Job Corp could turn out like once I arrive on center. I'll WILL be expecting some bad things/information to surface up about the facility eventually (not to sound so pessimistic about it).

Better to be paranoid about something good than nonchalant about something that could turn out horrible. Hopefully the medical portion of the commitment forms I had to sign and provide details with doesn't decrease my chances of getting in. ;n;

I'll call the admissions counselor and ask next friday as instructed. The wait to get in might be long (6 months at best), so in the mean time, I'll be jumbling up a good resume for that potential job my uncle was notifying me about back in August. (Turns out when he handed in my application, the woman he was speaking with stated that she'd like to see my resume before she can begin processing my information.)

So if things go according to plan, I'll be working and saving up some money until I get my pre-arrival acceptance call from the admissions counselor. To put it bluntly, make some well deserved profit in my spare time while playing the waiting game instead of sitting back staring at a screen hopelessly. lol

With all that mentioned, I'll be going on a semi-slight hiatus trying to get my stuff together. xDD Of course there will be some light updates here and there. Don't think I've forgotten about tumblr completely (or any of my wonderful friends ;w;).

NOW, TIME TO MAKE THAT RESUME!!!

See ya soon.

College In Canada!!?

There's been a LOT going on these past few weeks and since depression had knocked me out of the park, getting things done was more than a struggle.

Now since things have lightened up a bit, planning for my future hasn't been too much of a challenge. It's just getting the funds to put those plans into action!

Some good news sprung up just last week! My uncle recently contacted me for a job offer and to work with him. This is not only good news because of the job offer, but the pay is swell too! As well as being able to work with family since most corporations around here refuse to hire family due to liability reasons.

But there's a catch. My uncle isn't very good at keeping promises (or at least following through with what he says). With the possibility of not being hired due to lack of experience and said liability reasons, there's no use in getting my hopes up since more than likely this job does call for some experience. But that doesn't mean I don't have a shot since my uncle has some pretty tight connections with his job and the people that work there. So he might be able to pull a few strings. Possibly.

But of course, this is where Canada comes in. Since I'm sick of being stuck here in the U.S. with no opportunities, I've decided (with the intent on saving up enough money) that I wanted to attend some Canadian college for business. Now of course I can't go into it all naive and thoughtless. There's lots of strategical planning involved along with the consideration of starting up some funds which I can hopefully accumulate while at Job Corp. With these considerations in mind, Canada seems to be a much better option than studying here in the U.S. Of course it sounds like a longshot, but with a potential high paying job plus no major financial responsibilities, what've I got to lose?

Granted, I do fear taking out loans and not being able to pay them back since being broke and a loser here is stressful enough. lol Not to mention having to put your plans on hold only because of the specific disadvantages. But with the consideration that taking out loans seems to be the only option to get by in education within Northern America, there's just no other way.

Job Corp at first did sound like a very good idea, but now with the date of my interview drawing closer and closer, there's a dreadful feeling I can't seem to shake whenever that place comes to mind. Being technologically stranded with no form of contact, and even meeting new strangers that are possibly delinquents sent there upon court order. There's just no way I'm willing to find out.

Of course I can't put all my eggs into one basket with this whole job offer my uncle's got cooked up. But what else is there?

But since Canada seems to be a little more promising than here in the U.S., I'm willing to take my chances on finding out. Even if it means taking out some loans in the process.

Hopefully this doesn't come off as something in the heat of the moment. For now, all my plans are still up in the air. We'll just have to see what comes floating back down.

Sorry for all the constant "future plans" blabbering. It's just relaxing and even stress relieving to let this all out instead of allowing it to pile up all inside. :c
