Oh my there seem to be cobwebs everywhere... Hello everybody! I've disappeared for quite a while now and I apologize for everything becoming inactive! Things have been in a crazy spiral for the last six or seven months now. Some of you have known for a while now that my previous (and first) relationship ended back in the middle of May and it had actually been a highly abusive one. My life actually had been out of control for a while despite my best attempts to regain my footing, my friends have been very supportive even if we haven't always seen eye-to-eye on things and I'm glad they've been there in some form or another. Art has been a difficult thing for me due to experiences that my ex boyfriend had put me through and as a result my passion for it was lost.

Since college started up I became preoccupied trying to maintain my grades and cope with my panic attacks that seemed to be accompanied with flashbacks, both of which developed due to my onset of PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder). Since the end of the fall semester I have moved down to a lovely little place down in Illinois which is very close to the STL border (the arch is pretty awesome to look at by the way!). I'm working on all the lovely technical stuff  and I'm sharing an apartment with my four roommates and all of them are very wonderful people. I'll be getting my first job here shortly and I'm pretty nervous but kind of looking forward to it as well, more money means more creative stuff and more organizing and gussying up the apartment!

Well, I'll do my best to update you guys again soon!
