The only updates I seem to make these days are about that reading challenge haha. Which is silly because I do have a fair amount of things happening, but I never feel like posting about them.
I re-read some of my much older posts the other week and... Ugh. Why did anyone want to read them? I was ridiculous and boring hahaha.
I hope you are doing well, take care of yourself until I bump into you on hear again.
I used to think that I will never get bored of TheO or anime stuff, but lately I think I'm growing up. Yeah, I think it's called growing up... Damn, I'm getting old!
But I'm not deleting my account. I'm determined to keep it even forever if it's allowed.
These days I wanted to make a wall, but I don't have time anymore. I'm so tired from work... Bleah!
Growing up sucks the life out of you... Don't like it, but I'll torture my kids with Sailor Moon! I hope I have a girl and if she sais she hates SM, I'll give her the old one: "You don't know what you're talking about! When I was your age..."
Ha ha ha!
Please don't leave because I'm curious if I can reach my 30s and still talk to you! Only five years to go, baby! :D
Nah. Not necessarily artists' block lol. I mean, yes and no. For one thing, I'm always busy doing graphics and work on my computer that are for work...so I don't feel like making more graphics for fun haha. And then yeah, it's the inactivity of theO. *shrugs* Lol. But I don't mind. It's not like we've quit arting! It's just become less frequent...and less public. Thanks for your words on my stories. I'm sure I could, but I'm not really ready for sharing my writing with a community for writing...I do it for fun, and not for feedback, and I think I'd get way too overwhelmed in that situation. XD But thanks.
"The Mudstick Years." Sounds like a great new sitcom! Lol. <3
Haha yes, I used to post almost every other day when I joined, must've driven my friends insane XD I read your posts too, even if I don't always comment on them, and I'm glad to say you're a lovely person and should get more comments, both on your blog and art! And yes, I would love to keep in touch when we each happen to drop by here~
Artist's block doesn't even cover it anymore, eh? It's like there's no external motivation to doing stuff: submit graphics - few comments, write stories - little feedback (you should post them on writing communities, you'd certainly get lots of feedback there!).
True, true, we can always look back on the "good times" while sitting in our rocking chairs with a cat/dog in our lap XD In honor of our mudstick days, I do hope we can still talk whenever we happen to synchronize in coming here <3 *hugs*
I don't know, maybe we outgrew it? And I don't mean that in a derogatory way, just that I've seen three major sites (TheO, MT and AP - AP ever moreso) turn into ghost or almost-ghost towns because of older members not participating anymore. And most new members aren't too motivated to participate and just stick to downloading.
I sometimes miss the days of just randomly discovering members and talking to them, now it looks like everything is centered around participating in the gallery - if you don't, you have slim chances of being noticed. I totally understand migrating to other sites, though I don't spend much time on YouTube ^^" I like talking to you too, it'd be fun to catch up after a while! :D
Thank you so much for replying, I honestly hope things work out better for you in the future. You've gone miles in terms of skills from when you first joined TheO, and I look forward to seeing even more awesome stuff from you when I return ^_~
I can understand that, I've also not been active much lately, definitely not as active as I once was haha, but then my old activity levels were somewhat... Ridiculous!
I hope you do still drop by from time to time :)I enjoy hearing from you on the odd occasion I'm visiting theO.

All I can say is: I feel the exact same way about TheO right now. I haven't submitted or posted anything in ages - I just haven't had the time or motivation to create any sort of art. I've mostly been uploading vids on YouTube.
While I'm sad to see my friends leave TheO, I can't blame anyone because I'm doing the same...
Anyway, I hope you're doing well in general and I'd like to talk to you every now and then :)
*hugs* Totally fine, Oli-chan! I've been similar...I haven't been around as often, not submitting things like I used to...not commenting a whole bunch, so yeah. I understand those feelings. TheO is a great place, and I know we'll always have wonderful memories of it, but sometimes we can't keep up with a website! I'll always think of you regardless. :] You've been such a great friend, even if we haven't talked as often. XD
Good luck with everything. :)) *hugs* Take care! *hands you biggest stick with mud ever* Ugaa!
I understand needing a break from theO. I really do. I'm sorry I haven't been around much to talk or comment on your posts and such. I even haven't uploaded anything for awhile. Mostly cause of life and lack of decent Internet. I always look at your stuff (posts,wallpapers,etc.) and I always do my best to comment on your stuff. You're one of the reasons I joined theO in the first place. Thank you for being epic my friend. I'm gonna miss you. *hugs* I will still be here when you come back. Good luck with everything.
