Wow, I never realized just how long I had been gone. Most of my college life had kind of swept me up and I just cut ties with everything. In a sense, I sort of feel like I had abandoned one of the things that I looked forward to each and everyday with my work and designs and creations...when and if I made them. However now, I can say that I'm happy to be back. Things haven't exactly gone my way lately and some elements have made my life worse, but I'm not going to let that slow me down in life. For now, I want to start with rebuilding the connections that I had left behind, starting with DeviantArt. To say the least, its good to come back here.

Yeah, its been quite sometime since the last post I've made. This one is gonna be brief, I have a lot of my time going into my last semester of college, job hunts and many other things at the moment which is why I haven't been around all that often. My computer is dead and it'll take time for me to afford another before I can start doing graphics again. :(

I miss being on here, but I know that my future building has to come first, so to my friends, just wait a little bit longer. :) Thanks guys.

As many of you know, the Eastern coast of the United States was hit by Hurricane Sandy this week. Large amounts of flooding occurred, varying degrees of property damages, massive power outages spanning days on end and people hunkered together to avoid the storm. To say the least, the damage caused in certain areas was massive and daunting, but we will recover from this. The damage will be rectified and in time the wounds will heal. I feel for all those who lost something in this incident, but I know that in time these wounds will heal and we'll be able to keep moving forward. In my particular case, I spent the past few days in a locked down building with no power, very little food, no heating and dwindling supplies and necessities. However, the important thing is that I and many others like myself are alright. Very few people were harmed during the hurricane and we can all be at least happy for that.


On another note, my school has been cancelled until next Monday, so I can manage to catch up my backlog of work to schedule and meet deadlines that seemed so dangerously close before.

Back in college

*Blows dust off keyboard*

Hello everyone. I know its been a long time huh? Well I wish I could've spent a bit more time on this site as of late but a lot of things have been going on all this time as of late. Starting off, when I first arrived back home it wasn't exactly under the best terms. I had to reluctantly return to my mother's house because of the fact that my personal housing options had suddenly fallen through. During that time I spent time in and out of libraries in order to make most of the days go by. In addition, I had to deal with more than my share of betrayals from what some would consider friends, but I wouldn't allow any of it to bring down my resilience. I had to spend untold hours trying to build up enough money, despite not even having a job, in order to scrounge up enough cash to make my next semester's payments. It wasn't exactly the best time of my life or any summer for that matter and the future isn't looking too carefree either. I have five classes I need to take care of, an internship, an on-campus job, finalizing my portfolio while at the same time creating something new to impress my professors, finding a way to pay off the rest of my outstanding school debt while I'm still doing all of above within a 16-week period, working through the fatigue of a hard day-by-day life and combat my slowly returning insomnia.

Yet, despite it all, so long as I stay vigilant, I feel I can balance it all and even return to the site a lot more than I used to. I just need to slowly bring each piece together. Its gonna take some time, vast amounts of personal energy and proper time allocation. And I'm ready for it all. Besides, there's been some good as well. I've lost over 40 pounds this summer, so I definitely consider that a victory. :D

For the people I haven't spoken to, I'm more than willing to talk if you drop me a line, but other than that I'm still putting on armor and loading up ammo for the upcoming battles in my life.
