Hey guys, hello! I hope you've all been well.
So sorry for the sudden inactivity! I have been ridiculously busy with so many things. I do apologise that I just disappeared and didn't notify you all what happened. Don't worry, I've been able to get a few updates ready to make up for the inactivity, and I hope they'll be alright. Thank you for your patience everyone, I'll try to come on everyday as much as I'm able to from now on.
However, concerning the reason of my absence, for the most part, was that two of my cousins and an aunt have come over from Poland to visit us for "a while" (I don't even know how long they'll be staying). And I've been super busy getting everything 'ready for them' - cleaning the house, helping with shopping and just heaps of chores. The sad thing is, they're both my least favourite cousins, since they're continuously fighting (physically and verbally) with each other and dragging me into it, or getting too violent/competitive in games until it's ridiculous. You get the gist. And to make things worse, they're stuck-up, bad-mannered brats, even though that aunt is actually really nice. They'll snitch that I'm doing some drawing instead of homework, and then get mad that I don't want to play afterwards. Things like that.
One of them knocked over my pincushion cactus (that I managed to grow to be half a foot tall, mind you), and almost snapped it in half. He's bent the cover of one of my books, snapped a leaf off of my favourite ficus, spammed random letters in my STEM assignment while I was gone, taken my phone multiple times after spying on my password, messed up a pile of my school books because he "was curious", . . .

Hey! Hope you're doing well, we haven't spoken in a while, and nobody seems to know what happened to you, so I'm just hoping you're having a good time.

@CrystalwingOC Hey Crystal, it’s good to hear from you! No worries, this summer’s been busy for everyone it seems so don’t fret about it. And of course, I’ll be able to move it back! The farthest I can go back is the 27th.

@MindlessTyper Hey Mindless! I am so very sorry for the late reply, I was really busy with a lot of difficult things IRL. I saw that the due date was moved to the 22nd of August, which was a relief. And I was hoping, if it isn't too much of an issue, that you could move it forward a few more days, please? I'm really close to finishing, I've just had very little time to work on it across the board. I know it's cutting it really close, I do apologise. ^^' I don't need much time, just somewhere under a week. Again, my apologies, and thank you very much if you do extend the deadline. Much appreciated!

Greetings all! QotD and some messages ahead!
I hope everyone is having an alright day. How are you guys actually? I do hope you amazing viewers are doing okay and staying safe. Thank you again for all those supportive messages that you all gave me a while back on my half-rant announcement. Have I managed to take you guys' advice? Sadly not. :] But I might include a mini-rant at the end, because maybe it'll help me feel less snappy.
Anyway, some fairly good news, update-wise. I've been working hard on those prologue previews for my two major written works (TES book 1 and The Barremian). And I've also gotten some good progress on a big reference sheet. Surprisingly enough, I'm actually quite proud of it so far! I might show a blurred preview of my progress up to this point, to showcase the rough design and colour palette.
Alright, now on with the QotD!
Q: What is your dream job? Nice and simple! Perhaps... or not...
A: I would love to become a ecologist, or some sort of natural biologist! I have no words to explain it, except I am drawn to nature like a secretary bird is drawn to snakes.
~
Okay, now... hmm. I have tried very hard to put some of my worries into words. It has failed miserably, but I'm still going to persist. Yeah, I'm not going to be ranting her because barely anyone reads these announcements. :\
Goodbye though, I hope you have a lovely rest of your day/night everyone!! <33

@CrystalwingOC I hope that with whatever's happen, you end up feeling well soon! I would like to become a nurse practitioner focusing on psychiatry. It's a great occupation, because I'd be put on nearly the same levels as doctors (without having to do years of schooling), can open up my own pharmacy which means I'll choose the opening days and hours), and all I have to do is speak to people going through rough patches in their mental state for an hour so I can medicate them! It's perfect for me, considering how I've always wanted to work in the medical field, and being a surgeon would take longer than I'm willing to spend

@CrystalwingOC I hope you feel better soon! I want to be either and animal behaviorist, or a conservationist, or some sort of natural scientist. Mainly an animal behaviorist, since quite a few animals in shelters are put there because of behavioral problems, which are (most of the time) completely fixable!
