My life is very niiice. I am having many happy times with my new friends from beexsam and though I do not habitually peruse the other TF community, I am there in spirit. I may even post something sometime soon, if I feel brave enough. Yesterday I found out that validify is not a word, thankfully my mother corrected me before I wrote it down

You know 'happy time' has a whole new meaning now...

So, when do you leave for England? Since you are a young artist, tell us about where you'll stay? Friends, family, hostels? Unless you're independently wealthy already... What sort of adventure are you planning before/during holing up to create something awesome?

I intend to leave as soon as my exams are finished...this god forsaken country is wearing me down!I am not sure yet! I grew up in Hertford so I have a few good friends who have offered me places...people who studied something useful at uni instead of asian studies and Japanese.....So I will stay with a friend or two until I find the right place...hopefully a little village where I can get a job from somewhere and pay rent on somewhere else. I am really just ready to take what is thrown at me...it is all an adventure! I have many ideas for graphic novels and stories in general and I am currently working on something else just to sharpen my teeth....I am probably not good enough to do anything professional but one can only try and at least I wont get to thirty and think 'I could have made something of that! If only I'd tried!'

Yes, I am flattered muchly by your interest:) Nice Icon by the way :)What do you do?

Sounds like you have a great outlook on the whole thing. It's taken me a while to figure out that everything we do, no matter how mundane seeming in the day-to-day of it, can be and should be some sort of adventure. Usually, I don't see that until a part of my life is past and I start finding myself with stories to tell because of it

Wow, thanks! I think I was so cynical at the idea of joining live journal mostly because I thought everyone here must be a whiny 14 year old emo with nothing better to do....I am really grateful to actually receive an honest and incredibly supportive opinion from somebody! It has really meant something to me to hear that, even though my internal mother has just slapped me for typing something so stupid and fluffy ;) Your Job sounds pretty intense, colour me very impressed....next time I hear anything I will think of you....and I feel for your friend with the Jazz compulsion. I have been singing for quite a while now...but as soon as I left my original community I lost my contacts and now I am too nervous to put myself out there again, at least with writing and drawing you can retain a level of anonymity. Good luck to her

Hullo!
I just saw you on my F-List and thought I would stop by!
England sounds like a fabulous idea. My mother and I were thinking about disappearing there for a while to write a novel together, well, really a series of novels. Unfortunately you can't pay for plane tickets or boat fare with old chewing gum wrappers!
I hope you enjoy your time there though and still keep in touch with us LJ fruit bats!
