Life's Really Fascinating. Just a Little Over A Month of Being 20, and I've Already Experienced a Wide Fuckin' Variety of Shit. I've Started Interacting With The Art World after a Few, Long Years of Preparation (Even Longer If We're Counting Aspirations Of My Younger Self). Met a Bunch of Fascinating Artists with some of the Slickest Styles and Intriguing Thought-Processes I've Examined. Started to get Some Notoriety with My Words, which is Cool but I Need to Post My Art Soon, All This Work will just Go To Waste if I Don't Showcase It. Somehow I've Gotten Some Followers, and Even Crazier One of 'Em is Hideaki Itsuno (Literal Days After I Beat DMC5)! And Best of All, as Corny as It Sounds, is I Seem to be Makin' People Happy; even if it's Not My Art Doing It Like I Expected. However, in My Ignorance I've Made Myself a Temporary Burden to a Few Artists; I've Resolved the Issues but I Still Feel Bad for Making My Problems Other Peoples'. I Lost Beloved Pets (Yeah, Another One Passed On. It Was OK From What I Hear, But i Didn't Know 'Til Days After) and Doubted My Purpoose as an Artist because of that Failing, as Stupid as That Sounds. And IRL Bullshit, some of Which was Harrowing in the Moment but is Gettin' Better (Like Yesterday When I Learned A Close Friend Had Nearly Died, But Recovering Excellently Thank God). So Yeah...A Crazy-Ass Rollercoaster. I Feel Much Better Than I Did. This May Have Been Hard at a lot of Points, but In The End...I'm Glad I've Had All This Happen. The Sorrow and Frustration I've Felt are Gonna be a Part of Me Forever, but so is The Happiness and Fulfillment I've Somehow Achieved Along The Way. To Anyone Who's Noticed, I Have Been Offline More Than Usual. And I Will Be for Another Day (Possibly Coming Back Tonight), I Need a bit More Time to Process All This, and Get Some Work Done. But I Appreciate Everything I've Experienced on the Journey I've Begun, Especially the Happiness I've Created for Others. One of the Main Goals on This Journey of Mine is to Use My Art/Words to Help Out Anyone Who Can Find Joy or even Inspiration from My Work. I Hope Your Journey's Been Less Rocky Than Mine. And Have a Good One

I have no idea why I Never Clarified my Bird's Death. Like I Said: Emotions are Weird. I was hanging with family when it happened. By "OK" I meant it was another case of Age. God, that's kinda Hilarious in a Morbid Way that it's taken me THIS LONG to notice. Redact "Emotions" in favor of "Life"
