So um, since I've been inactive for awhile, I just wanted to give a little update, in case any one cares. Though I'm quite sure only a few people noticed that I haven't been doing any art lately haha. But at any rate, I just haven't drawn anything for about the past...6 months now. I don't know why, but that's what happened. I've done absolutely nothing artistically, and even though that's been bothering me for awhile, it's only recently that I'm starting to even consider the idea of drawing something again. But it's hard, because I feel like I need to figure out why I stopped drawing in the first place in order to be able to start again. It wasn't just a normal artist's block or anything. I've figured out that most of it has to do with an inferiority complex, and unconsciously deciding that there was no point in drawing when I couldn't put enough effort into it to actually get better at it. I would have to put serious time into drawing, or go to art school, to get better, but neither of those things are going to happen in the near future (and probably never, for art school), for various reasons. I keep telling myself I should draw for *me*, and not care what other people think, but in my case, that doesn't really work so well because I'm usually a harsher judge than anyone else. So I know that kind of thing was one factor, but I'm still trying to figure out if there was more to it or not. There's definitely more emotions involved, but determining which ones are relevant to this issue is difficult.

To stop babbling though, what all this boils down to is that you can probably expect me to continue being inactive on here for at least the next month. But I'm hoping that once winter break comes, I'll be able to draw again. I feel like I've lost a little part of myself, and I hope I can find it again by then. For now, I apologize for not being active here, but I think most of the people who would still want to talk to me already have other means to do it anyway, so it probably doesn't even matter lol.
