It actually bothers me almost nobody commented on the drawings I made. Why is it that people mainly comment when they like the drawing? It actually makes it a little bit harder for me to improve my artwork if nobody gives constructive comments.

Simply put, people are too afraid of upsetting others and prefer not saying anything at all. There's been many cases of artists getting angry and/or depressed at even constructive criticism and others would rather not take the risk of setting them off. It can also be hard for some to describe their criticism in a helpful way so they don't bother.

Maybe I should go through the art board and try giving some advice one of these days. I get pretty worried pointing out issues when I don't know the person and how they'd respond, but I do think it could help the artists here as well as myself.

I have a weird love-hate relationship with Youtubes autoplay-function.
On one paw, it always tries to make me listen to Lai Lai Hei if I happen to be listening to Ensiferum.
But on the other, it has also introduced me to a bunch of nice bands I doubt I'd have checked out otherwise.


I could do with a little less Lai Lai Hei tho. Not that it's a bad song or anything, I'm just fed up with it.

Why can't you vote on campus?
It would make a lot more students vote since they wouldn't have to walk down to the nearest fire station.


ALSO
What if there's a fire on voting day?
That'd be kind of awkward.

Just finished off Hush with Keeper.
Only got Lost left now, but it's probably going to take me 9001 years before RNGesus decides to let me have both the Missing poster and a Sacrifice room so that I can even unlock him >->

I wish that snow would stick to everything but my car, trying to brush it off is pretty annoying when you're already gonna be stuck in bad traffic, and it's only going to get worse. Also, WHY DOES IT TAKE SO LONG FOR THE HEATING INSIDE THE CAR TO START WORKING.
(Pretty much not being adapted to the sudden weather changes of CO. At 15:00 yesterday it was about 75°F and sunny, today at 15:00 it was 30°F and snowing... I wish that wasnt typical of the weather.

My sleeping schedule is forever screwed apparently.

Also tablet lag is like a third of my stress lately. Which is technically good, but still pisses me off.

Whole wheat doggo is part of your balanced breakfast. :D

Speaking of,  is it weird that I have a craving for buttered toast? Just buttered toast. Like, what am I, a peasant?  :P
