So this has the potential to be a little strange! :o

As is fairly evident I'm back, after an extended absense! Wondering how things are, what's changed, whether I'm a bit behind the times, all that business. I haven't logged in since last summer I believe, which does seem a little bit like forever ago. Had a bit of a scary amount of messages in the old inbox, and from the comments it seems I was missed by some good friends, and I'm very sorry about that. I missed talking to you all too!

What it boils down to is that I had a lot less leisure time than usual, more college work and I got very disorganised and needed some time to put that right if I still wanted to have even a small sliver of a social life. :p It sucked, but I'm easily distracted and had to be firm with myself and not take any of my crap (am I sounding a little confused here?). Turns out, the second year of A Levels actually takes a load of work. Phooey.

To be honest, I'm toying with the idea of starting a new account. This one seems very cluttered to me. I'm not happy with a lot of my deviations that are still up and I know a lot of the people I watch and who watch me ... well we're not really watching each other that closely! :XD: One thing a little disconcerting was to see that many of the people I did watch and speak to regularly moved on as well.

But yeah! Here I am, still alive and kicking, so I was just wondering who's still around? The thing that made me come back was the friends I missed, so hopefully we can catch up and reconnect now!

I guess what I'm saying really is: HOLLA! :la:

P.S. Don't know if I'm back for good, as coming back was kind of a whim but TIME WILL DETERMINE ALL and I definitely need a way to keep in touch with you guys!

Or so the weather would indicate. This is good for a variety of reasons: tanning, music festivals and THE END TO COLLEGE AND EXAMS! :worship: Haha, for a month or so at least. I know I've not been on much as of late, due to revising and panicking in between revision sessions, but now all that academic hoopla is over with my time is my own again! :la: I'll start by plowing through my very overflowing inbox.

But first, a quiz lovingly robbed from :iconfrisbeedogz:!

First thing's first, R.I.P. Ronnie James Dio. :( So inspirational, so legendary, the rock world has lost another of it's greatest stars but as always, he'll keep on living through his music and will always be remembered by the fans that loved him so much. My Mum was also gutted to hear about it, so she's been playing his records for a couple of days now and telling me about seeing him in concert. But yeah, he was an awesome musician and I guess the underworld has a new master now, right? :worship: Love ya always, Dio!

In slightly less crushing news, what does everyone think to the new dA layout? I'm still undecided. Nothing I hate about it or anything, but trying to work out where everything is now is a bugger! I was too used to the old one. And deviations and messages being lumped together was very odd! I logged in and was like "230 messages, WUT?!" But they were mostly deviations, thank god! :phew: What do you guys reckon?

:peace: and :heart:

I know, I know I'm late! D: I had trouble getting on a computer for a time, but still...

:iconlachoirplz:THANK YOU SO MUCH EVERYBODY FOR 30,000 VIEWS!:party:

And the person who caught it was one of mah oldest buddies on here, :iconicannotdraw13:! FEEL THE AWESOME THAT RADIATES FROM HER! And you win a 3-month subby and a request of WHATEVER THE FLAMING MONKEY-CAKES YOU LIKE! :heart: So yeah, just let me know what you fancy.

I really never thought I'd get to this on dA though, and I'm so happy about the friends I have made along the way. You crazy hard-rockin' kids keep me sane and I LUVS YA! So thanks for puttin' up with me too I guess. ;)

Expect the thank you picture to be up soon, and here's a quick meme to round this off!

Hey everyone! It's been a long time (almost a month). Too long some would say. Not long enough others might say, but those would be unkind people. Excuse me if I don't make much sense as well, but I am somewhat sleep deprived after staying the night at Ryan's and playing Guitar Hero probably longer than is healthy. :p

Anyways, not much has been happening to merit an update, just revising for upcoming exams and trying to have a social life when I can. Got a few ideas and sketches for stuff, but not quite enough time to actually finish shit. Still I have one plan for a comic that I have a good feeling about and really want uploaded, so I'll try and get that done at least. :nod:

Although one thing I've noticed is that my view count is hovering on the edge of 30, 000! :iconlaaaplz: This is...kind of insane! But yeah, if anyone manages to screenshot that, do let me know. Unfortunately, since three of my friends and my boyfriend decided to all be born within a week of each other, I'm kind of strapped for cash so all I can offer the person who catches it is a 3-month subby and a request. At least it's something though, right? :meow: Good luck everyone!

:peace: and :heart:
