... and a short statement:
I take A LOT of pictures, many of which you will never see.
I feel like I'm home when I find things and places in complete destruction, hint my gallery. I don't like things to be completely organized, perfect, or to make complete sense; that would take away the mystery that attracts me. I reject the idea of a "heaven" because I believe it's too cut-and-dry, just the thought of it is so boring and tedious. However, I strive to be very open-minded as much as possible; everyone has their reasons, their stories, behind beliefs. I try to incorporate these things into my art, one way or another; for I have found that it is the lack of the things that I hate that presents all possibilities, I hope you share this feeling!
So I'm about to pass 5,000 page views on here!
You guys have no idea how much that kind of thing means to me.  I know that I haven't been on DeviantArt as much lately, in fact it must seem like I disappeared.  I cannot even begin to tell you all that has happened within the past year alone.
BUT, even through everything, the pictures I take are one of the few things that keep me sane in the world!
I'm on the verge of leaving school at this moment.  I would be going into my junior year of college, however, life has shown me experiences outside of the classroom that have meant more to me and influenced me more powerfully within my art than any fluorescent lecture ever could.
I am currently embarking on my future, taking small steps at a time towards the thing that I want most right now.
Things are looking up and the road ahead looks beautiful!
I don't want to say too much, but, I've actually found what I want to do in life and I've found how I am going to do it.  Being as young as I am, I see this as somewhat of a risk but more of something to be ever more proud of myself for.

So I really want to say THANK YOU SO MUCH for the support that you all have given me over the past three years of my being a part of DeviantArt & thank you for the interest in my work and what I am doing.  You really have no idea how great it is to see that people are still looking at pictures that I took years ago.  I'm am so glad to be a part of a community like this with such talented and inspired people.

I am still progressing, I am still living life to the fullest, and I am certainly still finding myself within every picture I take.

I LOVE ALL OF YOU!!!!

Tell him that I can't go to see Larf, I really, really can't. Maybe in a few months I'll be ready to go out, but right now I really can't.
Yeah, you guys should come by here. There's a big metal show on the 10th.

Oh, it was much cheaper! Well, tell Mike he can come down and get the cake. I doubt they would mind, they don't mind me being there, so you should be fine. You and Mike should come down, and I'll bake you guys a cake.
Oh, by the way, I still need your help with those, um, 'very special' pictures for that very special thing that I want to do. That thing involving lots of girls, lots of suicide girls.

That's when you know you've found somebody special. When you can just shut the fuck up for a minute and comfortably enjoy the silence.
