It's been almost a year and a half since my last journal post! WHAT. That long?
I have a ("good") excuse, though. Since I was last "active" outside of being a ninja, I've gotten a boring adult-type, full-time job. Thanks to that, however, I've had a little money I can set aside for cosplaying and going to cons again. So, I'm trying to work on including that here and on my cosplay.com. I've taken a lot of older works and put them in storage or scraps since I'm not into having old work I'm not proud of being being on display.
On a related note, I've talked to a lot of friends who've deactivated their accounts in the last two years here, which makes this feel a bit like talking to a void now, sadly. I don't have any plans to deactivate myself, though. If I want to interact more personally & less void-ly, I use tumblr and email or whatever else anyway.
Hopefully, I'll have some new things to add to my gallery again like progress shots or work from costuming construction projects I've done/had help with - or something to liven up my dA at least. I haven't felt particularly creative or motivated to create anything, but I'm hoping to change that up too. I've only just started doodling at my desk again, so here's to attempts at not being stagnant in my life outside of work and online.

wow my last entry was something like december 2011, wasn't it? geeeez. sorry!
i can't believe i didn't make a single entry for all of 2012. i could've died and you guys wouldn't've been able to tell the difference lol.
clearly, i haven't been properly on dA in so long they've changed the upload again for like the 90th time.
although i have been busy with life-y things, so it's not especially a big deal i've missed a few things around here. in the time i've been away from dA, i've graduated from university and gotten a "grown up" job now as an IT helpdesk person (which i'll be starting in a few weeks) all in the last 9 months.

I've come to the conclusion that I probably only update journals now maybe twice a year, if I'm lucky, and it's usually during finals week.
Things are kind of all over the place for me now.
I've started sorta writing again, which is helpful though.
So, updates...
:bulletgreen: I'm going into my 5th year of university (how terribly exciting...), but it's kinda of a great thing.
:bulletgreen: There are some issues with only one course left for me to graduate, but I'll have to wait awhile before I can take it again.
:bulletgreen: Gonna continue my Spanish studies since I've got this delay. I do like me some languages, dawg.

Haven't updated this in awhile, sorry about that. After clearing out the past couple months' worth of message since my last clearing out when I had a very generous DD feature in the fall, I figured it was time to update a little. Even though it's been almost almost a year since the last journal update, 12,000 messages in a few months made their point, haha.
Things are and have been pretty hectic/chaotic/(insert your own not-so-great adjective) here over the past (almost) year since I updated my journal. No one's life is necessary any worse than mine, but you know how it is (I hope, haha).
Just to hit the "highlights" (in no particular order
Act your age, not your shoe size.
This is going to be a short journal since I'm at work, but I wanted to state something that I'd seen all across deviantART lately. As an older member of the site, it's especially annoying because I've been with dA through so many changes from site layout to surprising upsets in staff changes.
So, what's currently bothering me on dA?
ATTITUDES.
People all over are taking things and blowing them out of proportions all across our art community.
Immaturity abounds, apparently.
I would expect some of these attitudes from children. We do have a surprisingly large number of pre-teens on the site. It's practically normal for someone who's 12 to
