Can you imagine? I didn't get any time (or rather I didn't take the time) to sort my files here and actually close my account.
I'm surprise I gain a few watchers here and there
most people here already know what's going on with me.
I'm still studying but it's harder. Summer is here and motivation lacks. I work a lot, my boss is making me work more than I am supposed to. I don't know how to tell her since she is certain that she's making me do what's in my tasks (most is not). I redo scedules over and over and I'm sick and tired of this shit. People have no compassion over how hard my job is (they keep saying "omg I wouldn't do your job..." but they're making it harder for me by not respecting deadlines and making last minute changes that affect our organisation)
it's ridiculous. It's energy draining. I'm here because I have 2 weeks off work that FEEL GREAT right now.
I'm also in the process of asking for a preventive withdrawal. 3 other fellow receptionnist had theirs accepted and it's a hassle to get the medical certificate in hand, hand it over to the health department at work and it goes under investigation.
If it is refused, it will be another battle to go through since I will be contesting the decision (if it's refused, of course).
I'm just hoping, right now, that in a week and a half, I WILL NOT go back to work for a year and a half.
I want to spend the summer and fall with my son, spend as much time as possible before christmas, when baby #2 (expected to be a another handsome boy) arrives. I don't think I can handle the pressure at work with my wacky emotions and hormones now.
the last 3 months and a half have been hell for me. Not physically (I'm perfectly healthy and so is the little guy in there) but mentally... I work in a psychiatric emergency and we should all be working to avoid such problems instead of causing it.
you see, I have little time to think about DA, but I come and check once a month.
I stay updated, watch deviations of the people I watch and am still in contact with.
if you want further updates about me, I have a tumblr accounct accessible only to people I DO NOT know IRL or from the Montreal area. Just message me~ for the Montreal area people, I have facebook

Update + eventual deactivation
3 min read
It's late at night but I take a minute or two to write a short update and also clarify my june 4th entry (last entry)
I get maybe 10 minutes in a month to come to DA. My life is THAT busy now and I believe it wont change anymore. I have come to understand that I had to put aside things and drawing and general photography were the things that were not a priority. I miss drawing, I miss showing off good photos I take. But I am working on things that are much more gratifying in the long term right now.
As such, I now have a facebook page (in french) about my weight loss adventure. Tumblr used to be my place to vent and write about my weight loss... only it got out of hands and I wasn't finding the motivation I had a year ago and decided to use it only as an information and motivation finder.
Whenever I have some FREE time (what is that...?) I try to watch series I have missed over the years that everyone is talking about. Getting in the fandoms~
My son is 2 years old now, too, we spend a lot of our time just enjoying playing with him. On weekends we spend all our times with him and doing chores...
kids keep you busy as hell, let my tell you this.
I have also been studying. I recently was admitted to medical secretary course that I follow at home by myself. I am already a secretary but medical specialisation is perfect and ideal since I work in the medical field. It will give me wider opportunities at work.
but studying with a child at home and chores to do (picking up after him and the busy routine left overs is quite a job)
I also run 2 evenings a week. That alone takes 2 whole evenings out of my weeks. And the others are spent cleaning, keeping updated, socialising and bed time routine.
Add raphael's swimming classes on friday night at 5:30...
CHRONICLES OF A BUSY MOM
after all.. I get home from work at 5:15pm (I leave home at 7am to drop Raphael at daycare). His routine starts at 7:20. doesn't leave much time since I have to eat in between.
We're also planning to renovate the house and make it better so we can eventually think about baby#2.
but baby #2 will come when I will be more financially stable AND when we will have a place to put him or her in...
but it's been on our minds that it would be a good time. JM turns 29 in february and past 30... he's done.
I'm assured 2 is the most I can get to.
I'm still an anime fan, artist at heart... with more than 2 (and still with one I'm busy you can imagine with 2) I wouldn't even be able to BE myself... I would lose myself in the classic "mother" role.
We're managing. it's not always easy but your child's smile is always the best reward you get from your efforts
I will be deactivating my account as soon as I get some time off. I need to save what has been stored in this account before proceeding.

As soon as I find some time to clean up my gallery and make sure to keep what I lost over time, I will be deactivating my account.
After months of not taking anytime to look at MOST deviations i see in my watchlist, I have realized I have cured of the DA madness that has been monopolising a big part of my life in the past 8 years or so.
It's time to move on...as much as I've become a boring person to most of my cosplay-convention friends, it's true that I barely get anytime...
with my son being almost 2 years old and a house to take care of while major changes constantly happen at work, I can barely afford time to log on.
I've been more and more focusing on my health and spending more time taking care of it than being online.<
it's part of life, I guess, to move on to other things and accept that life isn't always about the internet and art. that there is also beautiful things that you live now that you give up on technology.
Spending more time here makes me spend more quality time with my family as well as taking care of my house... that alone is making me feel much more good inside, and proud, than posting a photography or drawing.
I found the positive in the boring thing that "routine" is. Cuddling in the morning with my precious boy, cuddilng before bedtime, opening my mind to the fun things we can do outside with him rather than be selfish and think of how much fun I have online.
you know the drill I've become the boring person I swore everyone I would never become. I lost friends in the path I have chosen but I've always realized how my friends are not open to my choices. It made me realize who was willing to accept the path I have chosen in life.
If any of you want to keep in touch, I am available through many ways...
most often FACEBOOK, tumblr and Play station network. You can also follow my little family on youtube

RIP my friend, Dmajorboss

I met him through the dbz fandom, here, on deviantart, encouraging me over and over, commenting everything, sending me random vibes of positivity that would brigthen up my day, on facebook and on deviantart... when I least expected it, I had a note from Dondi, giving his best wishes to me and my family.
RIP Dondi, I'll miss you forever~
december 16 1994-may 6 2013.
I want to have a light at the cancer walk just for your fight.. but I guess it will be as a memorial at this point. I'll be thinking about you

Little guy cosplay
2 min read
So.. I've taken all your suggestions and my own and...
yeah, I'll try my best to have my son cosplay Shippo on one day, and on another as One of the Elric brothers (FMA) (he doesn't have LONG hair and can't wear a wig so I'm guessing Human Alphonse.
I'd love to make the cloak for him
that's it I guess! I'll work on that starting MAY to plan, buy fabrics, look out for patterns and figure out how I'll do shippo's outfit. I also need to get a fucking hold of a sewing machine... the one I was lent was taken back and the others I was supposed to get... never made it here.
Not to mention my husband refuses I get one thinking it's a waste of money for a present when it's clearly what I want since 2008 (when I entered the cosplay world AND when I stopped drawing.
That would be much more creative than play video gmes and a LOT more useful with a child. It can also be a side line money maker.
so... yeah!
I sadly don't have enough financial stability to go to Anime North for a couple of years but hopefully in 3 I can bring my son along there if he wants to follow.
We have a very small home which we intend to renovate majorly in 5 years to add a basement and an extension to make it bigger. That will be our financial priority. When it's done, I can focus on whatever I want.
but... 5 years is far from now, let's not assume just yet.
toodles!
