Constraticron

Hey guys. It's been awhile..... Just where have I gone? Why haven't I been around more often?

Well... i've had a couple of jobs this year. One in a nursery... moving plants around the yard, pulling weeds out of the cracks in concrete and gravel.
Another in a Carl's Jr, the second one built in Canada... feeding burgers through a charbroiler and dropping fries into the fryer.
Helping a friend move out of his place... which took almost a month and a half, helping him on-and-off.
Now i'm currently working at a scrap metal place... although that isn't going to last very long. It's temporary work at best.
All of those jobs, with intervals of yard work in between.

That sounds like a lot of work, but... really, it wasn't. So, what else have I been doing?

Travelling. All over British Columbia. Seeing my furry friends, experiencing new things.
I've almost never been home this year... so I haven't been drawing much as of late. Then again, lately I don't really like being home for longer than.... oh, maybe 2 days.
I've been getting stir-crazy easier since my lifestyle's pretty much changed completely. I'm almost nomadic -- I don't like staying in one place for too long. Still in my parent's place, where the creative juices don't flow so well. Shame I can't move out yet.

I have still been drawing -- quite a bit, although i've lost my touch with hands it seems -- so I haven't completely shelved the habit... but i'm not going to keep saying 'I might be back soon', because I don't really know anymore.
I do miss you guys... so i'm trying to keep in touch now. If you have a skype or an MSN, it'd be great to know what it is... i'm on those all the time.

Keep up the good work, all you lovely people.

I will now report all of these as spam.
I have made my position clear on these before.
You have been warned before.
This is my final warning.

Continuing the tradition of using a song title as my journal title...
No, I have not died! And I am still drawing. So why am I not around anymore? Well;

I have officially decided I do not want to live here anymore. My relatives in America are calling out what's on my Facebook to my mother, since she doesn't know how to use hers (nor has she tried in X amount of years), which has led to some very uncomfortable conversations.
So i've decided i'm going to get a job and not spend a single dime on myself. Once i've done that, i'm going to save up and move out. Will I stay in BC?? I don't know.

I have had art block since I have been in and out of college. So from mid-November to near the end of January, I was unable to draw anything worth posting. Sorry about that! I have a few things cooking for you now though.

I am slowly working on my to-do list, and I would like to be back on here regularly soon. I'll try my hardest!

Here's the thing about promises...

Don't make them unless you can keep them. -.-

I said i'd upload more and... well... that just lead to 100+ more WIPs just sitting around. Looking back, hardly anything here is worth finishing and posting.

I have barely made a dent in my to-do list (Although i've knocked 2 things down off of that list, but I can't finish the second one until gives me the okay. fav.me/d4e169s), and my friends have been shelved time and time again to accomodate for studying. Which is purely just for the hell of it now, since i've changed my projected career path.

It's a little early, but I resolve in the new year to draw way more, and make some progress on being able to play the guitar.
It's been a tough few months. Things will get done when they get done. No rushing anymore. Doesn't mean i've given up.

Tagged by ... and I decided to actually go along with this one.

11 Things About Me:

1. I'm Furry. If you haven't figured it out by now...
2. I can almost play 'Embryo' by Black Sabbath. www.youtube.com/watch?v=-nhupb… (It's not much, but it's helped me immensely with my fingering.)
3. I collect video game consoles now. Can't wait to pick up an NES!
4. I discover new '80s bands I like listening to every day. People pick up the newest Red Hot Chilli Peppers CD, i'm here rockin' out to Ratt, Dio, Triumph, Bon Jovi...
5. Okay, i'm just an '80s man in general. He-Man, Iron Maiden, Ghostbusters, Terminator, all freaking awesome.
6. Horror movies don't bother me... until I lay in bed at night and hear things sifting their way up the hallway. :l
Just keep telling yourself... just a dumb movie...
7. I have almost every one of Ozzy's CDs now. I'm only missing a handful of them.
8. I don't like wearing shirts. Matter of fact, why am I wearing one now?? *Strips*
9. Total health nut... except for my weakness for pizza.
10. I make pizza.
11. I want to start commission work... not until I get my requests done though.

's questions:

1. Is there a song that you MUST sing/hum to?
No, I don't really hum.

2. What do you think about the 3D movies we keep seeing nowadays (I don't really mind them, but I'm annoyed that just about EVERYTHING is coming out in 3D)?
How many have I actually seen...? Well. Transformers 3. It was good in 3D, but the effect was only really amazing on small objects closer to the screen, like sparks and debris.

3. What is the very first fandom you got into?
Video Games, of course.

4. Most memorable moment?
We had just left the fair... it was late at night, and me and a group of friends were just chilling on the bus bench. We started talking about electronics running by themselves (I think it was a bad horror movie someone saw... idk.) Suddenly I notice the car next to us starts, but it looked like there was no-one in the car. I leaned towards the car to get a look in the driver's seat, then the car moves! It freaked me out so bad, I started drumming my feet on the pavement where I sat (And you've never seen feet move faster, I swear.)
Turns out that ghost car was occupied by a little 'ol lady, too short to see. Oh, and I yelled out 'THEY'RE SCREWING WITH US!' while this was happening.

5. Something you can't live without?
Music. I must have an mp3 player on me at all times.

6. Xbox 360 or Playstation 3?
They have their quirks and perks. To be honest, the only thing keeping me from picking PS3 is the lousy controllers; feel like they're going to snap in 2 in my hands!

7. "I HAVE THE POWER!!" <----Where from ? (And no cheating! No Google or Yahoo! BV)
He-Man. You could have at least tried, , since I was the only person you tagged.

8. Favourite Season?
Summer. Don't have to wear a shirt.

9. Do you spend a lot of time on deviantART?
Yep.

10. Favourite composer(if you have one)?
Don't have one. Let's move on.

11. Time era you wished you lived in (Like 60's, 70's, 80's, etc...)?
Grow up as a kid in the '70s, live your teen years out in the 80's, die just before it all goes to shit in 2020.

My Questions:
1. What instrument would you like to play, if you could??
2. If we started a band, what would be your biggest musical influences?
3. What is the one thing you can't give up, ever?
4. What is the first green thing you see in your immediate area?
5. I am thinking of a bottled drink. Guess what it is.
6. Have you ever seen Outland?
7. How many CDs do you own?
8. How big is your music folder?
9. You're locked in a room with a table. What do you do?
10. ...Looking for this? :3
11. We're playing Final Fight. Who do you pick to play as?

Okay, i'm pretty sure there are not 11 people who read my journals. So... let's just maliciously tag people.
