TruesdaleLover

Hi everyone! TruesdaleLover is back in action!

Sorry that I've been away for so long. Things have gotten a bit hectic around here I plan to update my journal at least once per week from now on! I owe it to all my beloved watchers since I've pretty much vanished off the face of the Earth XD

Well, I'm almost legal now! Haha, only 10 more months to go XD I turn 17 in February, so that was totally CRAZY! Dunno though, 17 is such an unfabulous age XD Not a sweet 16 and not a legal 18. Just a... well, like a blank spot between two awesometastic ages XD.

It's also my final year of high school this year ^^ That means, I'll be uploading a super amount of artworks during June! So to all my patient watchers, you'll soon be pretty flooded XD You have been warned! Our governemtn has caused a bit of trouble in the education system, but heck, it hasn't killed us yet! hahaha!

Also, I've got someone new in my life He's really sweet and I've known him for going on 5yrs (we met when I was about 12). We've been together for about 13 months now (Yes yes, I know I didn't say anything beofre XD But nothing was certain back then). But all's well in that sector ^^

By the end of the year, I'm hoping to move out and live with another friend of mine. We'll both my first year univeristy students next year and people often mistake us for sisters, so we thought "Why not?" ^^ It's going to be so much fun!

It's almost exam time here, so I'm going to get my bum off dA for a week ^^

PS, who of you are coming to South Africa for the World Cup?

Peace love and chicken wings to you all!

Hi to all my dA buddies,

As you may have noticed, I haven't been around a lot. Truth be told, I am going through a lot and I've been a bit unstable and unhealthy.

So, there'll be a delay on everything that I promised to do. I'm really sorry.

Bye, and love you all!

Tell me which one's you're looking forward to by just looking at the name of the piece. I want to see the response just for the fun of it ^^

Hi there, everybody!

Have you guys missed me while I was away? Hehe, it's cool if you didn't though. Absence is not always noticable XD.

But yeah, I think it's time I gave an update on what's happening in my teenage, drama of a life.

Let's start off with school. How nauseating! But school is a part of a teenager's life, and in my opinion, too big of a part! So school's been robbing me of my precious time to draw, write stories and hang out with my friends. Or even just chill out! I'm busy every weekend, I sit till the early hours of the morning with homeowrk and I study myself into a sleepy mess. Computer Apllications Technology still rocks because I find it easy , Business Studies is getting more in-depth but as you guys know me, I love a good challenge, Visual Art is HECTIC! I considered dropping it, but I should persevere and try my best! Mathematics is a pain in the rear but surprisingly enough, our exam was a joke! And English... still my favourite subject! I received 90% for my latest essay story. I'm so happy! My writing is finally getting better! But you know, school isn't aall that bad. I get to see my friends and 'be free' in a sense. We love hanging out in the PC room (it's nice and cool on a hot day XD) and in the library. Yeah, we're nerds XD. But hey, I don't mind playing a librarian. It just depends what the guys wanna 'check out'. Hehehe XD LOL. Just kidding people.

Life at home has gotten so much better. I find it easier to get along with my dad and mom. My stepmom is as awesome as ever and I'm starting to be more of a 'sister' to her daughter. I told my dad I want to be more independant and go and look for a part-time job and get my licence for a motorbike. He won't let me get either so easily because he knows he strained I am with schoolwork. But you see, I'm sick of depending on him for every last little thing. I want to take animation courses and I want to pay for them myself. At least this way I can earn some money for myself. Then I can also buy me things that I've been wanting for a very long time.

As far as me goes, I've been feeling much better. Ok, it's now and again that I let my emotions get out of control, but nothing major. I'm learning self-control, so that's a good thing, ain't it? All my scars have almost disappeared, so I don't have to look at them and be reminded of what I am capable of. Also, beside my emotions, I'm leaning to cope with events and work that just get thrown at you: stress, workload, you name it, I can take it! I'm still struggling, but I will get it right.

OMG! I cut the top layer of my hair even shorter! It just barely touches my shoulders while the bottom layer touches my rear. One of my friends (who has earned the name 'Toshiro' or as some called him, 'Captain Hitsugaya', after the character in Bleach), says that now that my hair is cut in the style that it is, I look a lot like Soi Fon, or Shaolin Fon, from Bleach. And I was like, wtf?! But come to think of it, my haircut is something similar to hers and my personality does match up. Lol, wow, what a twist. Oh, and I've traded in my jeans for 3/4 pants instead. It's just too hot to wear jeans!

Ok, that's enough of an update for now. I will be submitting art pieces soon! Watch this space! LOL
