LMAO ITS ALMOST BEEN A WHOLE YE A R since I've updated or been active here. Sorry but not sorry? I guess. I kid you not, I'm almost out every day of the week because of uni and my social life, I can't remember a single day when I've been able to sit down at my desk and been relaxed enough to play TEF lol.

I still think of you guys a lot though, I hope you haven't forgotten how dumb I am. <3

Wow, I have been really inactive everywhere online. I often come to TEFc to lurk briefly, but even then it's not to the same level of attachment I had a few years ago. I'm not active on skype anymore either - I've moved to Discord!
Pretty much every night since uni's started I've always gotten home pretty damn late compared to when I was in high school - I think it averages 6-9pm, so I barely have time to think about my online life when I need to attend to so many things outside of it. I hope that didn't come over sounding like an excuse.
I've talked with a few people about this but I've been feeling really, really detached from most things, mostly because I think university work doesn't allow much space for much else. Because of that though, my art production and inspiration has dropped to an all time low, haha. Even if I carry my sketchbook with me everywhere I go, I barely touch it and I doubt I've drawn digitally for a few months, save for a stale WIP. It's a little frightening, seeing that art has always been a constant passion of mine, despite everything else that's happened around me.

Erm. So I think that was a convoluted way of me saying that I've become distant to this community and its seriously genuine, awesome people the same way I've become distant with my art. I'm not sure whether I'll feel like picking up an art tool even if I have free time, and it's the same for talking and making friends. Thank you to the people who understand and continue to support me thoughout this, though. I'm surprised my lack of communication for weeks on end still doesn't discourage your heartwarming welcomes but I'm very grateful for them.

I haven't drawn digitally for what feels like so long, university is keeping me tight by its side like a noose. By Friday though I'll have finished all my assignments and handed them in, so perhaps you'll see more from me around that time.
But until then, I hope you are all staying healthy, keeping well, drinking lots of water and again, staying healthy. Take care of yourselves!

Guys guys, this is important I want a character which is super fluffy and puffy and also is half onion like if you hurt them you'll cry whether you want to or not


09/02/17
boy oh boy I've done it now guys.
FOr some unknown reason my tablet has stopped working. I.e, will not light up, won't respond. Legit I've tried every solution I've come across - changing usb ports, changing cables, uninstall and reinstall drivers, restart PC, waitING, even

Doesn't work. This is the pits, since art has always been a strong obsession of mine, hands down. Fair enough, I can work traditionally and if I'm desperate I'll use the mouse but the agony of not being able to create and experiment is starting to gnaw at me already.
Heck.

Hey guys, sorry for my almost 0 presence anywhere. I didn't realise moving house would be this exhausting, phew. We still don't have a fridge, pots and pans or eating utensils so right now we're limited to eating out or bringing back bread and stuff.
My PC isn't set up yet either so TEF activity is kept at a constant 0. Hopefully that'll change soon though!

sOoOOoOOO
GUYSS my atar came out today! (the atar, for those who are not australian is the rank that determines whether you can enter your applied university courses)
I got 92.35, which means I'm in the top 7.65% of the students in my state which is.. ok?? My preferred course 'Visual communications' has a cut off mark of 93 though. GOOD NEWS, if you get top marks in a subject relevant to the course you can gain bonus 5 points, which is what I did with visual art.

SO HOPEFULLY THIS MEANS
I got accepted into my preferred course/??? (fingers crossed I don't jinx anything)

15/12/16
So my final examinations results came out today!! I actually forgot they were sending them out today via text so when I woke up in the morning and looked at my phone I was casually like, oh sweet, somebody texted me I feel wanted, but it was not to be. Didn't do badly, didn't do well. Most of my subjects save Chemistry and Visual Art were in the high 80's. Chemistry was my worst at 81 and Art was my best at 95!

So far, a lot of things have been pointing me to continuing my artistic career so I've put as my first choice for university offers a course called 'visual communications'. It's kind of like graphic design but for a client/purpose. Things I'll learn over the three years include typography, web design and I think basic animations, so there's that. Hopefully I can find some ways to show you my future assignments and projects as well!!

I've also found a really close friend who wants to move out of her house very soon, and while I'm still pretty apprehensive about living so independently we've plans to earn enough money to buy a small apartment closer to the city where our universities within the next few years. Wish me luck, guys, I love you all!

Don't compare yourself to others. As long as you know you're doing your best, then that's plenty good enough.

Aivilo is right. Comparing

Aivilo is right. Comparing yourself to others is both, motivating and very, very damaging.
Not being able to fit in academic standarts doesn't make you any worse as well as not getting awards and stuff, believe me. You are trying your best, Niri and this is what you should be proud of. Some day it will pay off one way or another, be it academic success or something else.

Above all, in my opinion, education is supposed to be enjoyable, which, sadly, almost never happens. Putting so much pressure on ourselves, we tend to forget we are supposed to like studying. It only drains and exhaust us mentally and physically. Good grades ain't worth it for sure.

Don't be so hard on yourself, let yourself rest sometimes and just let things go with a flow.

I hope it makes any.. sense, haha.

@Aivilo Ahah, I didn't even

@Aivilo
Ahah, I didn't even see you steal that page. What a hardcore ninja. Thank you for your words, pisma, really. People have said to me not to compare myself to other people, but you really hit home. I know I should stop doing that haha, and I'll try!

@hb-k
It does make sense, don't worry about that. Your words are very insightful - I do agree with what you've said about education and studying. I'm not very good with eloquent language or communicating my feelings in words very well, but I'm really touched to hear that people have so much faith in me.
Thank you for your words, hb-k. They've really lifted my spirits.

Also hello!! I'm sorry you and Aivilo are super ninjas for sure!
