YES!! I LIVE!!! Ahem, yes to anyone who was wondering, I'm still alive, and I am sincerely sorry for the lack of updates. However, this journal isn't meant to be dedicated to me begging the forgiveness of all my friends but as is in fact my farewell to them. I have decided to abandon my deviart account. YES! Bring on the tears! (Yeah right) . Please, my friends don't take this the wrong way. It's not that I hate you guys (I love you guys with all my heart in fact), it's just that life is beginning to take to much of a hold on me. When school was around I was bombarded with homework, and had extracurricular activities almost everyday (you guys must be so sick of that excuse, but it's true). Now, that school is done for the year I'm working almost everyday. Plus, next year will be my final year of high school, which not only means more work, but it also means I have concentrate more on university and where my life is going. I’m just feeling less and less inclined to go on the net because of this. The overall fact is that I'm spending less and less time on the net, and I can no longer uphold my commitment to it. I don't want it to feel like a chore to update (which it is starting to feel like unfortunately) because that was not why I joined this site. I joined it to express my love of the arts, and to meet new people, but right now I'm afraid I'm just too busy living life. Now, I don't want you to think I'm only abandoning deviart. I'm pretty much dropping all my online communities. So, I just want to say thank you to all my friends at deviantart for talking with me, and inspiring me, and for showing me just what great people you can find throughout the world. You truly are great people and I love you all from the bottom of my heart. It was a joy to look at your works, for all of them were wonderful. I also want to thank you all for looking at my art (no matter how crappy it was) and commenting on it, as well as giving me pointers. Thank you so very much!
I especially want to thank my friend Rin. She was my first friend on this site and treated me with much respect, and even let me get away with all my procrastinating. Rin if you’re reading this, I want to thank you so much for everything! For your beautiful art and wonderful stories. Stories that not only portrayed already-known characters in a unique and interesting way, but for also CREATING such unique character that seem to worm their way into your heart and mind. Your stories will be stories that I won’t forget anytime soon. Your intriguing plots have taken up residence in the back of mind and I don’t think they’re going to leave anytime soon (they’re refusing to pay rent though ). Thank you for listening to me and making me laugh. Thank you for sharing your views with me and allowing me to see things from a different perspective. But most of all thank you for your friendship! My heart goes out to you and I wish you the best girl!
So, finally, goodbye to all of you my dear friends (and other). Farewell and love! (At least for now)

P.S. I won’t actually be closing my account in the hopes that I might be able to pick up where I left of should things calmer. Though I might actually close it after a year of abandonment. We’ll just see.
