deviantART
There are things about deviantART I love. I have stood up for it's rules, I have stood up for it's decisions, I have stayed throughout the bugs, the glitches, the copyright scares. On the 25th of May, it will be my SIXTH year anniversary on this site. I have spent all of my teenage years on this community, and obviously, it means a lot to me.

But it's just been the past couple of years that have just really worn me down.

The only thing I have left of dA that I love, is actually the select people I interact with. There is just too much on this site that is blatantly unfair, and my issues with injustice are enormous. When you weigh up the pros against the cons, you're not sure what to actually do with it all.

Putting all the injustice aside, discounting all the corruption and double standards, dA in general has become something of a duty for me. It's actually stressed me out more than college work at times, telling myself I have to comment, I have to interact, as if it's a job, as if it's compulsory. I do have my reasons, but admittedly a good portion of it is just my own neurosis.

It took me all day to reply to my dev watch messages. All day.
I'm just so tired. I'm just so very tired.


(I actually had an enormous rant outlining every thing that was pissing me off about the website, but I decided to save you all from it )



Too much time, Too little time
Granted, I have a lot of time off now from college, but do you ever have so many things that you want to do, that you somehow never seem to start ANY of them, and start thinking that you don't have enough time in which to do them in?

I have, what... 4 months off now, and I somehow have gotten it into my head that because I at least ONE thing planned in each month of my holidays, that means I don't have time to do drawings or read a book or something. Friggin' odd one.










Return
I hath returned from my trip away, I had fun :3
I don't really even need to do much when I'm with my friends, I just enjoy being with them, though they still so lovely and plan out activities for us to do anyway

Must note: Cycling uphill = makes me die.



Lovesick
It's summer, and thought I haven't got a partner or even an unrequited love of which to speak of, I'm so very... what's the word... twitterpated?

I'm just in a romantic mood, in a sort of a heart-achey frame of mind. This may result in a few stupidly-lovey pictures soon X3

Ugh... I just want a lovely, lovely tomboy to come and rescue me



Hair
More of a neutral point this.
I have very long hair. I have ALWAYS, had very long hair (well, excluding being a baby). I have never actually gotten it cut (discounting trims). It is quite a big part of me and my identity.

However, in my mind, I don't even have long hair. Well, not most of the time anyway. I had at once stage BRIEFLY considered getting it cut into the style I have in my mind (which is... SORTA like this: [link] but more flicky and my own colour, not black.. and I don't actually watch the L word)

But there are so many things holding me back, to the point where I don't think I'm ready.
What do you think?



Questions
As from the hair section, what about you and your own hair? Is your hair something that's important to you, or... has it always been long or short and could you ever consider changing it? All encompassing sort of hair question, aha!

How does the summer affect you? Is it something you enjoy, or are you more of a winter person?

What is your favourite(or one of your favourite) smells?
