I just realized my last journal update on here was nearly two years ago. Where the hell does the time go? However I have to say that I update my journal quite frequently ... my livejournal that is. ha. Everything I have to say is all on there. Warning though, if you decide to add me, I update on extremely random whims so expect extreme rage, super-hyperness, occasional morosity, and a lot of the time just nonsensical randomness.

Anyway, lots has happened. That's not surprising though, considering thus is life. Two years ago I was in Grade 11, and now I'm a first year university student. I'm currently majoring in Linguistics and am contemplating either doing a double major (linguistics and french) or a just combined degree (same subjects). I'd love to have a career that lets me travel the world and experience as much culture as I possibly can; I don't think I could handle the typical 9-5 office job. I have grown a lot as a person (not physically though ... sadly I'm beginning to think I may remain 5'2" forever) and realized what's truly important for me. All in all, life has been good to me.

Unfortunately the same cannot be said for my creative muses. On the artistic side, I'm afraid to say I don't think I've grown much as an "artist." At least on the written side of things. I used to be able to write so much in so little time and have it turn out good. I think I've gotten a lot more critical of myself in my writing (blame it on constantly looking for flaws in certain pieces of work hahaha). My old stuff is decent, but there's so much I find wrong. For instance, I used to write in the literal sense WAY too much. There wasn't anything special in my poetry, no symbolism or metaphors, really. My prose was awful and PURPLE. Purple prose has become a horrible enemy of mine.

Long story short, I'm not happy with my writing. I get better but usually I can only hold it up for about a page before I lose the inspiration, or just feel like I'm not writing it well enough. (Random admittance: That's what I love about journal writing; there really aren't any criteria to adhere to, it's just write what you feel, whenever.) Anyway, I'm trying, hopefully the few things I have on the go right now will grow in length and be good enough for me to post on DA.

On a slightly related note, I've actually gotten better at photography! I'll have to post some of my latest photos sometime soon. It's really awesome though because last Christmas we got a new camera. My uncle's a professional photographer so he recommended a Nikon camera to us (me and my dad) that's suitable for "hobby-photographers" and is also good for beginners. haha. Anyway, I love it. I get some really awesome views of the mountains from the area I live in, there's also tons of deer, coyotes, and rabbits to take pictures of, as well as a lot of trees and ponds which are really gorgeous at certain times in the day. So you can bet this spring/summer, I'll be out expanding my photography portfolio and just experimenting with the nature.

I think I've procrastinated enough. I'm at school on a break right now ... and should really get to finishing up the assignments I failed to complete during reading week.
