Hey, something to post =P

I guess I -could- just occationally post funny stories I gotta share with everyone in general, or talk about recent revilations that I think up. Something like that.

The main thing I wanted to sorta point out (and semi-rant about) is how a lot of people online surprisingly know each other. To be a bit more specific... for example, I was randomly browsing around from yoshi-related link to yoshi-related link, and I was outright surprised by the amount of fan art that Darkmark has. As in art of him drawn by other people. I guess you could say I was jealous, but I realized that it's because he's quite a bit more active and outgoing than me (and that's sort of sad on my part, no offense to Darkmark =P)

My little 5 minutes of fame is coming to a slow crawn and soon to be only limited to a very few limited people with the way I'm doing things online. But at the same time, I don't want to try to do extra stuff just for the sake of getting the attention of people who might draw me (that's sorta shallow XP).

Another thought is that the main way for a person to have art drawn of them is to be an artist themself. I see all sorts of people doing art-trades and such, even though some of them aren't as talented as their trader. Yeah. Though I -can- draw, the thing is... ahh, I have no idea, honestly. I was about to say that my main strength is writing, but I don't show enough of that online as it is, and I don't think I've heard of people trading pics for fics. I wouldn't know, since I'm still in very few crowds, but I haven't heard of any.

A main limiter of mine is that I just really suck at MB RPs. They're like... I'd rather have my RPs a lot more smoothly running than those, which are as smooth as chunky peanutbutter. >_> All the RPing is in large clomps at a time, having people make each of their few-posts-per-day to count for all they're worth. And direct interation is just about impossible. Seeing that I just about only visit the Aurioum once a day, or maybe twice if I'm particularly bored is not much as it is, but it's worse when I go on when most other people are starting to go to bed and stuff XP

Ahh, yes... so all in all, I'm not happy with being only semi-active in the online world. I'm limiting myself to personal groups via chatting and not as much larger groups like MBs.

It boils down to me not having as much time as I'd like and how it's hard for me to stand out, I guess.

Wow. I write a lot. I think I'll go shave and eat breakfast now. =P
