Wow. How long has it been? Let's see... Right around eight months since my last journal. Amazing, isn't it? Haaaaah, and look at that, I'll have posted THREE WHOLE JOURNALS in all of 2009, as I don't foresee myself doing another one any time soon...

In fact, I dunno why I'm doing one now!

Oh well.

SO. News on teh Ara... I'm totally going to do NaNoWriMo this year. I'M DOING IT. Even though I'm already two days behind. Hahaha I need a plot. -_-

And oh yeah, newsflash, I AM NOT DEAD! School's just been keeping me super busy... That, and *cough* Rping. Mmmm, writing. But seriously, this year I switched majors, AND up and decided to join the Air Force ROTC (for those of you who don't know what that is, it's the Reserve Officer Training Corps - which means that I'll graduate and become a 2nd Lieutenant in the Air Force). So, I'm pretty booked.

Changing my major has killed my time to do art... Well, not really, I guess. Hm. I have like three or so things I've been working on since JULY *shoots self* but I haven't yet finished them. OH, I PLAN ON IT THOUGH. And I guess I can announce an upcoming ten page comic EXTRAVAGANZA (not really) that I'll be posting. It's for a project for one of my classes (the last art class I'm taking *sniffle*), and I'm pretty excited about it. I finished the script, and the basic thumbnails... Now it's time to draw draw DRAW. I'm HOPING that I can keep going with it too... Keep it as an ongoing comic. But knowing me... I dunno.

Either way, that's it from me. BORING JOURNAL IS BORING.

Eh. Maybe I'll post again this year if something exciting happens to me *coughnotlikelycough*

And with that, I'll leave you with a great quote that my Flight Commander gave after Physical Training this morning. He had the thing MEMORIZED PFfft.

"It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst knows, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."

- Theodore Roosevelt
