my grandmother is helping me buy a cintiq
so tomorrow i'm gonna try and buy a cintiq

i caved


Okay I know it doesn't sound like it because I approach everything ever with a string of caution but I'm actually pretty excited about this heh

A cintiq seems like a good investment, for your occupation.

A desk would probably be equally useful, considering my complex series of boxes I have everything sitting on.

But I'll figure that out

I essentially had this setup for a while:



A good desk makes a world of difference.

That's about right except I also lack a chair. I'm starting to realize it's an issue.

Update: I bought it. I'm excited but also trying not to anxiety

I'm marry

SpoilerShow

we're not having an actual wedding so at this pre-party/flat warming with all our friends and family my friends threw a surprise ceremony and read vows from fifty shades of grey... My mums friends lost their shit laughing it was so good

Look how happy our mums are i'm so glad they were both there

congrats!!!

Congrats Plaid! Marriage is certifiably awesome! Any cool honeymoon excursions planned?

We're too poor :')

wow after only like 1.5 months of job hunting, i may have landed another job??
it's a lot less dignified than my last, as i am switching from gift-wrapping at a local department store to, uh, fast food service at jack in the box...
but i only really care about that because my dad won't ever shut up about how i shouldn't be settling for fast food work :y

yeah!!

oouuuuurgh hold on it's a big maybe right now, the day i thought my training started is actually just a second interview or something, not a guarantee... ooof.

my dad won't ever shut up about how i shouldn't be settling for fast food work :y

if you've been looking for that long than maybe that's the best you can get right now? why would he be upset?

I'm Very Hired!

I live. And for today, that is sufficient.

Happy for this, and you

there's a girl in my orchestra class painstakingly pasting the hair/mustaches from various historical dictators onto the bodies and faces of anime girls in ms paint.
she's doing a surprisingly good job.

March break is starting off great! Also, my "mafia" I have planned is coming along nicely (but disgaea is a good game / major distraction)

I won a regional poetry contest and it is advancing to the provincial level! I'm going to get a plaque in the hallway in my highschool! I'm going to get $$$!

Wowie!

3 whole dollars!?

I think like 50, actually.
