Wow... has it really been three years?

I don't know if I ever anticipate making a full comeback to DeviantArt. My interests have without a doubt changed but my creativity and desire to draw are equally unwavering. The last three years of my life have been the scariest and darkest and I don't blame those who think I'm fibbing because life has been like a miserable, emo fan fiction but hey, there are just some things you cannot make up. From seeing the most important person in my life, my little brother, be hospitalized for four horrifying months after being struck directly by lightning and learning how to cope with his new life in a wheelchair (on top of my newfound passion for business through a club called DECA and my dad's epilepsy), it's been a hellish time since resettling in Austin. Nonetheless, I'm pretty emotional right now as logging back into my DeviantArt to see all of the comments waiting for me so long (and so short... wow some of you guys are persistent beans!). I have so so much to share from my YouTube channel (ThereGoesInfinity) to the kind of incredible journey I've experienced while dealing with my brother's injuries which include participating in national organizations such as Extra Life and speaking on Rooster Teeth's (yes, the huge YouTube channel) Extra Life lifestream. 

I'm without a doubt rambling now, so if anyone reads these or wants to talk I could definitely use it. My nostalgia has hijacked my heart right now and I didn't realize how much I missed this loving platform, even if 99% of my old posts are furry-cringe material!

LOVE YOU GUYS SO MUCH Hug Hug Hug Hug Hug Hug Hug

Raise your hand if you're extremely done with school and you want to go home!

*raises hand*

Yes... well here I am! Wow, it's as if I haven't been online in ages. I still have messages that haven't been responded to that are from February. I really need to catch up with those.
Might I say that I feel like some people have unwatched me for being inactive, but I promise, promise, promise I'll post soon!

Anyways, I've been very busy with projects, assignments, and Taekwondo lately, and keeping a balance with everything is getting to be quite a feat of its own. For now, I'm spending more hours in school everyday than getting hours of sleep every night, and by a lot. I guess it's just really difficult to get anything done that I would like to do, and I have time for a short walk maybe once a week. Grrr, I've got a life too! I want to spend time with my friends, but I hardly have time to spend with my family anymore besides on the weekends, and even then I usually have one day that's fully cut out by homework.

Also, I've been just feeling really weak all the time, and my sleeping's gotten horrid. I can't wait until the summer.

Well, at least I got all of my standardized tests out of the way. Just finals and I get to go home for the summer! *Woohoo!*

Well, that and THE NEXT 3 WEEKS WHICH ARE THUNDERSTORMS OF WORK

I'm going to be attending some business things though in the summer, and I'm really excited about going! We had our presentation about it and I'm really hyped. To spend 12 hours for 4 days learning about how to invent stuff? COUNT ME IN!

ANYWAYS, THIS IS AN ART SITE, SO I SHOULD AT LEAST MENTION SOMETHING ABOUT ART, RIGHT?

Well, I've been drawing horses (Same old, same old) a ton and I feel like my conformation has been slowly improving. Geez, if anyone knows any decent tutorials for drawing legs, than PLEASE share the link to them with me! 
Same goes for drawing people, which I've been making slow but steady improvements on. My style has been evolving quite a bit lately, and I feel like I've found this very strange mix between extreme detail and cartoon, but I'm comfortable with it and I'm satisfied with what I draw (something that I haven't been lately)

So, here's a preview of the style that I'm hoping to post sometime soon! I've got quite a few of them from my classes, so sorry if I accidentally spam!

Posting these small so that when I post the official one, it looks even better!

Oh gosh, these are from Winter Break still... yikes!

Yes! I have some photography, but very little, and most of it isn't quite right yet, either. Oh well :/



Off I go! Gotta finish up some schoolwork!!!

Well, I think it's apparent that I really need to get around to purchasing a premium account, don't I? Well, whatever... MIGHT AS WELL HAVE SOME FUN, RIGHT?

So, if you couldn't tell by the skin, I've gotten back into playing Legend of Zelda quite a bit lately. I hadn't even realized just how much I missed it, and so I am almost done playing through Link to the Past and I've started The Minish Cap again. My best friend is a huge fan, too, and so I've been playing her copy of Phantom Hourglass. *happy squeals from the distance*

Otherwise, school has been VERY stressful, and it seems to be just a never ending loop of project to homework and back around. As soon as you get one mound of stuff out of the way, more rolls in and you preeeeettyyyy much would rather jump into a piranha tank!

I hurt my ear over the weekend, and so I've been trying to listen to people through my good ear and it makes me look really stupid *ugh*. I love when that combines with the fact that I'm already congested... Yeah, that's lots of fun.

I know I was supposed to upload stuff, but I pretty much got around to scanning about four decent drawings from the last 9+ weeks, and that's not even comparable to how much I actually drew in that time frame, so maybe this weekend (? the keyword is maybe ?).

I got a new sketchbook, though! It's really cute and a very convenient size to carry around. I have tons of huge journals lying around and a bunch of little ringed ones, but nothing that I can draw on. Michael's is my art heaven (I wish I could afford to buy all the cool things they've got).

I've been so inspired to draw dragons by all this Game of Thrones excitement going around (I still haven't seen the new episode; people are saying it's really great *cries*), so I really want to post at least a few of my better ones. I have tons of photography from Winter Break (Shut it, I know it's April) and from San Antonio that I want to share, so I'll see how much of that I can get done!


Love,
Equestriad (Julia :heart: )

I kind of just had a heart attack because for at least 10 seconds I heard something from my room crash down and it made a really loud noise and I jumped up with my pencil in hand and then peeked over my desk until it stopped and there was a huge gust of wind outside so I just assumed that it was the wind but then I realized that the sound was against wood...

The only wood thing that could have been hit was my closet door... That's it... 0_0

So here's what I did...

Got on DeviantArt and decided to tell the world about my Spoopernatural adventure.

I was going to go white-girl-in-a-horror-movie, but I'm going to bed soon anyways so I'll investigate then...

Off I go to my funeral now XD

See you after I burn up on the ceiling (loljkIamsosorrybutmanWinchesterfeelsohmygodcanunot)

^^^ Only Supernatural watchers will understand that...

(lol what if it was my dog though lol)
Oh wait she's downstairs...
