I would like to start this off by simply saying that at times being down really, really sucks. We've all been through it, since its just human nature.

But tell me why it has to be such a great weight, huh? 

Now, I always try to stay as positive as I can, but sometimes things get to me. Recently I have been going through some stuff, and in all honesty I just feel unhappy all the time. While its not exactly apparent on the surface, it feels as though there is a little part in the back of my brain that's rotting. Like a nagging doubt and decay.

Either way, I just tell it to stuff it!

I'm not giving in to some nagging mournful voice of doubt. I've had this before, and i sure as hell am not having it again!

Anyway, regardless, the point in this was not for me to complain. In fact, I actually wanted to vent about why I love the anime forums so damn much. 

Over the, well, I would like to say two years as a a cover, of being on this forum, it has slowly become much like a home to me. Everyone here is like family, and I wouldn't change that for the world. So, thank you so much Optic, and everyone who has been along for the ride. it's wonderful to have such an amazing community, and I look forward to seeing where we all end up in the next few years.

So yeah, just know that you are all amazing people, and you all deserve to know that. Here, we are family.

Anyway, like I said, thank you so much for allowing me to feel welcome in such a loving community. Without it, I don't think I would be as happy as I always am now ^w^

(P.S: Don't worry about me either  I will be fine in about a month or two. I cant stay unhappy for long. I'm too positive...... )

I have been working with pixel art models for a little while, and I have to say that while i am not exactly good at it, i have made a few GIF's here and there. Here is one of my newer ones:

While its not exactly smooth, I simply made it as a proof of reference for when I need to try and make another jump animation in the future. Regardless, If anybody is interested in knowing more about my Pixel art or other art stuff, then please feel free to ask ^^ I'm sure to post it regardless, since I really like sharing them

Seems weird, but I have been running a HxH D&D for quite some time now, and i just wanted to talk about it a little bit, since I feel it may interest some of you. While it is set in the HxH universe, it also uses the idea of a forever expanding planet, so while some locations are still the same from the actual series, there are billions of different factions, creatures and places to explore. 

Seems weird, but I kind of adapted the D&D rule-set to simplify the rules for newer players, shortening down the stats to only 5. While this means that large amounts of the micromanagement for stats is out the window, I have made up for this by implementing crab tons of items and stuff into the world. Either way, each of the characters is more or less meant to be designed to focus more on the RP elements and the combat then the actual technical game-play stuff. 

But yeah, right now is going well ^^ I may have to document everything and share it, although that depends if i get the time

This may be a bit short, but I really just wanted to vent something. I made this yesterday. Once again, I'm sorry that its short, but I don't know exactly what else to talk about right now.

I never understood true disappointment until now.

That feeling you get when you feel you did everything wrong and everything right at the same time, yet somehow it always comes out in a net negative. The feeling of being struck down, regardless of intentions on both sides. That feeling of letting those around you down, or visa versa.

It’s painful…. I know…

Truth be told, we all go through and experience this kind of disappointment at least once in our lives. It’s how we are meant to grow as people. Or so they say…

I guess that means I just have allot of growing up to do….

…

*Sigh* I guess it can't be helped at all. I think I will just go on, and try to forget things I felt so strongly about. Because after all, like I said from the beginning..

It was too good to be true.
