Like.. OhMahGawd! I'm A-LIVE Ppl!! [R.I.P. Patrick S. Carlucci]

Yes, people. I’m still alive. I apologize for not updating in a while. There just hasn’t been much to update about. Until now that is.

First, let’s start with the fact that and great Artist has passed away on Wednesday. Patrick S. Carlucci: http://PatCarlucci.deviantart.com passed away yesterday morning after a 5 year battle with Non-Hodgkins lymphoma. He was a very inspiring Artist to me. My condolences have gone out to his Wife, family and dear friends. Other journal entries have been posted about this sad tragedy as well:

..And those are just the Artists I follow.

Now down to business. It’s getting down to “crunch-time” for me. I’ve been really stressing myself about what’s gonna happen next month and all the things I’ve gotta get done. For the past several weeks, I’ve been cleaning out my room and hitting the gym. Not to mention I’m trying to go for my Learner’s Permit, so studying has to get squeezed in along with cooking and other various things. ..And I’ll have to start packing next month… Ugh.

In my spare time, I have been trying to get back into writing stories. I’m not sure if I’ll be posting them or anything though. I just happened to be reading one of my old stories last week and remembered so many ideas I’ve had for like… years. I haven’t written a story (and completed it) since 2006.

Aaand that’s all there is for now. So until next time, l8r.

R.I.P. Nujabes

About a week and a half ago, I found out that one of my favorite Music Artists, Nujabes ( Jun Seba), passed away. Not only that, but that he passed away LAST MONTH (February 26th) in a car accident. WTF!!
For those of you who don't know who he is, here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nujabes I know him as the guy who did the music for the famous Anime, "Samurai Champloo". There's not much for me to say on the subject now, being that it's been happened.
I made a music playlist in memory of him (called "Ode to Nujabes"). I might post a link to it (via Playlist.com ). R.I.P. Nujabes. You and your talent will definitely be missed. It's such a shame your life had to be cut short.
