It feels like it's been a while.

Well, I actually managed to accomplish the goal I had set for myself. Yeah, 103 icons since my last post, which was about a week ago. XDD Yeah, I'm surprised myself. >.>; I didn't think I could actually do it, but I kept finding images and just kept going and going. Which meant, that I completely ignored all communities and my own journal. But gosh, I had so much fun making these icons. I completely forgot how much fun it can be. I think that I need to work on my text though. XD I was way better at it before.

Things felt so much more peaceful since I've been away from great sources of aggravation on the internet. Not reading bizarre and twisted rants by Mizura, joining and leaving a few communities, all the drama...just not being a part of it was a nice break. But I did miss giving attention to the things I love, so I'll get back to that tomorrow in the morning.

I start my new job on Monday, and I can honestly say that I feel that it doesn't feel right. Like I'm only doing it for the money, not so much for the fact that I'll enjoy the position at all. I've been feeling like this a lot since I received the position...kind of like I made the wrong choice when I chose a major. I really like science, but I get this feeling like I'm not in the right place. =/ Kind of sucks to have this happening especially considering I just finished 4 years of college studying Biology. lolz...good job Catherine. For now it's okay...I really need the job cause the more money I make, the more I can put towards Otakon. :D Yes! It's coming up soon, so be prepared for lots of jabber and whatnot as I prepare (sorry, it's just that one thing I look forward to every year now XD).

KLSDFKLJSDFKJLDSFKJLDSF....why is there still no scanlation of Chapter 48 of Soul Eater? I need something good to read. D<

I scored a 66% on a test asking questions related to my best friend. LMAO...I'm such a good best friend, aren't I? 8D

I really want a sandwich. ♥</random>

For those who actually spent time to read that, you rock. ♥ And since I have nothing better to do, I shall reward you with music.
Hide and Seek by Imogen Heap- OMG I'm so shamelessly obsessed with this song. The melody is very calming, and really helps clear my head.

Last Train Home by Lost Prophets- I haven't heard this song in a while, but it's still as awesome as I remember.

Love Fool by The Cardigans- OMG >[ It's love guys.

mood: hungry
music: Crash and Burn- Savage Garden

I love that song, Hide & Seek! :D :D (and also Crash & Burn from Savage Garden, one of my favorites)

Glad you got into the swing of making icons again, you are awesome and its good to do something you enjoy. As for the whole job/major thing, im sorry to hear that and i agree, it feels kinda odd if you're just gonna go into a job or career just for the money--you'd wanna go into it because you LIKE it.

And hey, at least you'll have a degree in SOMETHING and you can use it to your advantage for anything you do, because it'll be accept because it IS A DEGREE. But I wish you luck on this new job and your career direction. Along the way, you'll find something you really wanna do and you'll go for it.

Isn't it just fabulous! Crash & Burn is another personal fav...god I love those songs so much. ♥

Aww, thank you muchly. I'm sure I'll find my niche in a while, it just kind of sucks that I won't be motivated to work now, but it's alright. XD

That's very true. I can at least put it to use for now. Thank you~!♥

*loves on your icons* you amaze me. I could never do that, no matter how much time I spend making icons and doing nothing else, I can never finish within a week XDD not to mention your icons come out so gorgeous too *_* HOW IS IT POSSIBLE. DD:

I know what you mean. I don't think I could handle that sort of stuff on a daily basis. *trying her best to avoid the fandom drama*

Well, you could always just give it a try, and if you feel like it's something you don't want to do, you can quit after getting otakon covered? 8D but I think I know how you feel, even though I don't have as much education behind me as you do XD I always wonder where I'm heading, it never seems like the right way. Well, best of luck either way ♥♥

Music~! :D

*loves on you* You're too kind. ♥ I'm utterly insane...I have no idea how I managed this. And I even made some more icons after that. Something is wrong with me.

It's so peaceful and fun without the drama. :DDDDDD

Well I technically can't quit for about a year, but after going to work today, I think I should be able to manage. It's not as bad as I thought it out to be. XDDD Doesn't it suck not knowing what you really want to do with the rest of your life? I feel that way all the time now. .___.

Sounds good then :D hopefully it wont be bad. I'm sure you'll manage just fine ♥ haha, I know. I feel like I'm pretty stuck where I am now. I'd go for more school and everything, but my problem is more like 'what the hell am I going to study akhdksfgh ;__;' ..BUT OH WELL WE'RE GETTING PAID RIGHT. 8D

Progress

Tiekko agreed. I want to put her on issue #1. Berry is also game. I'm waiting to hear back from Toboe, unless you said something to her?

What e-mail can I use to contact you securely? (And SEKRITLY.)

Re: Progress

I'm still waiting back on answers, but since it seems you got Teikko to agree *YAY* I'll see if any others are willing to do later issues. :D Sweet. I'm sure Toboe will respond soon. If you want me to forward a message to her as well, just let me know.

You can email me all secret service style at blooming_cosmo@yahoo.com. 8D

Your icon text rocks. :p IMO, you got better too! And so did your coloring! *pokes Soul Eater icons*

...I'll know how you feel about the job thing in a year. *gulps* ._. But yes, money is good. >:O Especially for conventions. *going to the Anime Expo on July 4* I WANT TO GO FOR ALL 4 DAYS BUT I CAN'T. T_T

Soul Eater chapter 48? I'm only on chapter 20! D:

AWW NOW I WANT A SANDWICH. D<

OMG I WAS LISTENING TO LOVE FOOL YESTERDAY. XDDDD My dad passed by and was like "The Cardigans? YOU LISTEN TO THE CARDIGANS?! COME WITH ME, I HAVE THEIR CDs 8DDDDDD THE TIME HAS COME FOR YOU TO INHERIT MY CD COLLECTION" xD;

Your icons are lovely! I saw the batch and I think that they're wonderful. You don't need to get any better than you are now because you're better than me. I'm sooo not a graphics person, only a semi-decent writer. XD

Yay for no drama. These past couple of weeks have been full of drama for me, so I wish that I could share in your bliss.

I actually start a new job Monday too - well, hopefully. I went in for the interview Friday and the guy said that he liked me and was definitely going to hire me. *excited* I haven't worked in so long that I could pull my hair out of my head.

Sandwich's are love. ♥ Especially ham and cheese!

d00d, the Cardigans are pure love! I don't know many people now a days who listen to them. Yay for music~! ♥

Who knows? Maybe the proper position will come in time.

Heck, I just recently started working at a hot rod shop, with is a personal dream of mine, and it feels strange for me from time to time.
