As of writing this I am 2 days from heading off to school for a year. As my last journal entry said about 5 months ago, I am going to Virginia Tech, and because of this my art, and my time will be strained. I'm pretty ecstatic about it, but also I'm quite sad to leave a lot of my life behind. New starts suck worse each and every time.

So far other than my eminent leave I've had a good summer. I went to Otakon for shits and giggles in a mudkip costume with my good friend Liz and my cousin Ryan. It was a lot of fun, even though I don't watch anime. Once I got back I then went to VT's orientation, which wasn't half bad considering I stayed more days for vacation.

Other than that I worked at Go-karts plus, an ok job overall but I would like to say thanks to everyone there for being so damn awesome all the time. I left a week ago and I keep running into the group randomly. If I do it again I swear I'm gonna come back again next year.

To the possible readers from my school, specifically APEHE, I hope we meet again in the future. I promise not to change too much. I'd also like to thank you indirectly for the moral support. You all brought me out of my shell which helped me loose the last 40 pounds. So far I've lost a total of 90 pounds and I feel better than I have since before my multiple bouts with cancer. Thank you a bajillions and please never stop asking "why come?".

To those who have watched me from Guildinn, since I can not say it there, Good luck with everything. Team Underdog, if you still exist when the site comes back (if it ever does) I am no longer on the team, I may come back sometime but who knows, hope you all do well without me. Also Fuck you RM for being a dick about the site, I don't care to get involved with many sites so to get one locked is a pretty big kill to me.

Lastly I thank anyone who's still reading this journal. I love you guys, even though you may not give a damn, I do and I thank you. Who knows maybe I'll be back from time to time with new art. (Like the one I've been working months on )
