a strange occurrence
(explanation of events at deviantART)

approximately 3 days ago [3d 23h 31s ago to be exact], I had logged in to devART to find the community in a big uproar over something- it had to do with [Jark] so I went to his page to acertain what was going on- he'd been fired. ...one of the founders of deviantART FIRED. I couldn't believe it- I was shocked, and I still am.

I had been gone for 5 days and this happened while I was away- it's not as if the world has been flipped upside down, but this is a horrible thing to see happen to this place -sigh- I don't like this... I'm reminded of Disney- of Eisner, I hope I'm wrong in my thoughts though...

this is the art community I belong to, while I don't believe that it's perfect, I never thought that I would witness something like this-ever.

...and now, I don't understand what's going on over at [deviantART] really... I just read [Jark's explanatory journal entry] but I still don't understand exactly why Jark was involuntarily terminated (I guess that he and Spyed got into an intense disagreement, but still I don't think that that would merit Jark being fired from his original position -sigh-)

this is not good.
I wonder what's going to happen next (and I'm kinda hoping that Jark could get his job back- he did it quite well for years, I don't want it to be taken away like this)

the going is good...

*smiles* today, I am going to take the Nursing Entrance Test, and have done a little research prior to purchasing it and completing it (which you can see here as text urls: Read More... now, I will take the test with no fear (for it looks quite easy, really)

see you later!

-Daiko~
(pray for me)

T-T;; -sigh- ah! Last time I posted here, I thought that the entry I had spent so much time typing for LJ had gone through- and I see clearly that it hasn't -sigh- I love how LJ gives me grief when I want to post my entries...

oh well, I'll survive...
(I just hope that the pot roast I was cooking didn't get overdone and burn the house down o.o!! ...help?)

time is of the essence! (and yet, I don't harness it correctly)

I am so cuucoo~ I have been online for like 4 hours now- I need to go get something to eat and finish my business here [at the college] (for further details, see my [rambling LJ])

places I've been (or want to remember):

see you all later~

-Daiko~
(pray for me)

I want more free time

I couldn't seem to post to my LJ, so here I am with a half-finished entry again -sigh-

various stuffs

darn it.

uh, hi... things seem to be going quite well this week since I've mostly spent my days at the VA volunteering- such interesting people have been working lately and I've been intrigued by them and their behavior... I wish that some of them would be more permanent and have their names on the roster more often- especially on days in which the hospital is short staffed but it's up to them. -sigh-

Anyways, I found this [cute picture] recently- it's nice to see young artists that show so much potential... I would watch her on deviantART, but there are so many others that I'm tracking already T^T;; *breathes out*

...

later, I went to my local library and recovered one of my discs of backup files o.o!! yay! :heart: and I ran into Madeleine L'Engle's Many Waters it seem that I know this book somehow but I'm not sure if I read a different version of it or something since it seems to be much longer than I remember it- if I did read it

Anyway, what drew me to it was the author's name and the beautiful illustration on the cover with the twins and the lovely seraphic creatures~ o.o;; it's so complex! I hope that some day I'll be able to finish a work like that...

-Daiko~

8 minutes
Mood:  happy
left for me to write this (and the library won't be available starting August 1st, so I might not be online around that time either)

today, I managed to get a bit farther in the oekaki picture that I'm working on over at [Dee's] -and I'm glad
it seems that I've been so undisciplined lately with regards to my artwork since I leave so much of it unfinished so often -sigh-

...Anyway, today also, I've learned to die little deaths to my selfishness- that it's good to keep quiet at times about small things that are irritating and to let that emotion pass through without having to hurt other people- heh. that small things like the time that dinner is served- even if it's late, I'm still grateful for it

thank you God, for this change in my heart
I want to keep changing for the better~

EDIT: I don't understand why this entry didn't appear online after I hit the "post" button last night- I didn't even see it today when I went online from the VA, maybe I'll be able to see this (and have others) see this entry after this edit? I think so...

Live, Blog, LIVE!!
Mood:  loud

I will keep this blog alive with my postings- post post post! (because I think it would be sad if I just transferred to LJ after being here so long o.o;;... T^T')

I just don't seem to be able to say anything- like this place became silenced somehow? eh, this will probably pass- could just be the doldrums or something...

some places I've been today:

I really wish that I could finish my digital artworks, but I'll put up with not being able to do so for now... -sigh-

-Daiko~
(pray for me- so that I'll be able to live productively and happily even without use of a home computer and constant internet access -sigh-)

Topic: bits and pieces
and the time, it seems like it's gone by so fast too

eh heh heh hee, sorry about not posting much- it's been hard for me... ^^;; and I now have a new suppliment blog for my ramblings online as well, but beware... it's an LJ! (that is, LiveJournal)

it seems that I've found it easier to post there than here- I haven't moved there officially yet, nor do I think that I will do so (or that I should) but I wanted you to know that it was there just in case you wanted to see what else I've been up to

*laughs* nothing important there really- it's me being fluffy and rambling on about games (FF7 especially) and books and other things (I think I'll be putting my daily links on to a separate site of their own here on Angelfire though...)

****
as for myself now, I'm okay, but I have a better understanding of failure and the reasons why some people take their lives if they don't do well on exams- it's sad, but now I know why it is.

I guess I'll just elaborate on it later though as I'm a little preoccupied at the moment. *doing so many things at once at library*

I'm glad to be back! :Heart:

-Daiko~
(pray for me)

T_T...

later.
