If I don't find a job immediately (and I've a feeling I won't), I figured it'd be smart to have a to-do list, so I'm not just moping around the house, wondering, "What's next?"
Read 1-2 books each month.
(I got plenty of books, so that shouldn't be a problem.)
Practice painting.
Experiment with other mediums of art.
Write my books.
(Um, duh!)
Get a little more involved with family history.
Practice Spanish.
(May not take the class anymore, but there's more to learning a language than just a few classes.)
If possible, practice driving some more and try to get my driver's license.
Watch some of my DVDs that remain unopened.
(Believe it or not, I got some DVDs that are still wrapped in plastic.)
Go for a walk each week.
Dedicate at least one day in the week to some serious job hunting.

Musical May - Broadway Style
I think now's a good time to start figuring out what I'm going to draw for Musical May this year. I do Sharpie art because it's easiest and quickest, but I always like to plan ahead of time. Last year's theme was classic Disney songs. This year, I've decided to do classic Broadway songs. I can think of a few songs right away that I would love to illustrate. For the remaining slots, now's your chance to toss up suggestions. Keep them clean and family-oriented, if you please. **EDIT** And I got 'em all! "Do You Hear the People Sing" from Les Misérables "I Dreamed a Dream" from Les Misérables "Bring Him Home" from Les Misérables "Empty Chairs at Empty Tables" from Les Misérables "If I Were a Rich Man" from Fiddler on the Roof "Matchmaker, Matchmaker" from Fiddler on the Roof "The Good Old Days" from Damn Yankees "All I Ask of You" from Phantom of the Opera "Endless Night" from The Lion King "The Impossible Dream" from Man of La Mancha "Oh, What a Beautiful Morning" from
My DA Anniversary
Today marks 16 years since I joined deviantART for the very first time. This was my first major social media platform. This was before I had Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, or even my own blog. I was a shy and nervous kid fresh out of high school, who hadn't fully decided on whether or not to go to college. While I miss the old DA and most of my friends that have flown the coop, I still like it here (for the most part) and I definitely credit this place for the tremendous boost in the quality of my self-confidence in addition to my writing and art. There's no way any of my stories or characters would have made it this far otherwise, though college was a huge help, too. So, happy anniversary to me! Let the fun times roll!
TV Tropes - Kaylee's Relatives
It’s been a while (a very good while) since I did this kind of list, and I’ve been kind of interested in doing another one. So, today, for the first TV Tropes list of 2024, we’ll be looking at the blood relatives of Kaylee Drummond, the girl who marries Reid and Lara’s youngest son, Troy, and—spoiler alert—eventually becomes Daire’s next Queen. For a bit of context, Kaylee has a pretty good-sized family, which is why I’m lumping them all together here. On her mother’s side, there’s her grandmother, two aunts (one older and one younger than Lottie) and one uncle (the youngest and the only one unmarried) as well as two uncles through marriage and six cousins, only one of which is a boy. On her father’s side, there’s her grandfather, two uncles (both older than Philip), one aunt (the youngest and the only living female), one aunt through marriage, and four cousins, all of which are boys. They all show up when Kaylee and Troy get married, and then I’m planning a few more scenes for
My New Year's Theme
And so begins a brand-new year. I'm well aware that 2024 won't be perfect, but there's still something refreshing about a new chapter. You already know all is not going to be well in the book you're about to read or the movie you're about to watch, but you still look forward to the story. What are my resolutions for this year? Well, it's more like a New Year's Theme, actually. I got the idea from a news story years ago, where a woman used a specific word to revolve her whole year around, like "hope" and "dream" and "believe." This year, my special word will be "Finish." I've always been great at starting things. Getting those things done, not so much. And so I aim to see certain tasks all the way through in 2024, or at least make a better effort. This includes the completion of: 1. My driver's license 2. At least one short story and at least one novel 3. More artwork 4. More books for personal reading (don't know how many, but there are some books I started to read for fun

If you need help with Spanish, trying using duolingo if you haven't already. It's a website where you can learn a whole bunch of languages for free, and it's not crappy like those random websites you find.
I used it to learn quick a bit of German when I needed to:
