Got this from :iconkittys-gone:

Here's how it works:

1. Be one of the first 10 people commenting on this journal entry, and I will add you to the "Promotional List".

2. For each of the first 10 people answering this journal I will put his or her avatar and the three deviations I like most from his or her gallery on the list.

3. If you answer, you'll have to do the same on your journal, putting me in the first position. Then rinse and repeat!

Number 1...:iconshinji-sama:

Number 2...:iconprincess-marie:

2,000 views!!!! I can’t believe it! Well I can—the proof is right in front of me, but it is very hard to believe. My art in no way compares to the art of the people watching and faving me nowadays (or ever), and I’m really grateful to everyone that has taken the time to look at anything I’ve created. It means a lot to me to be able to have an art account and be able to put some of my stuff up here. I feel that if I didn’t have this account and a way to get out of feelings, I would have gone crazy by now. High School is killing me, quite literally as well as figuratively, and I don’t really have anyone near me that I can tell my thoughts to without some form of editing, so this is my makeshift place. I know most of the stuff I most are wastes of space and are products of inexperience and my downright lack of talent and I can’t really be called an ‘artist’, but still… I love trying.

On the subject of High School, I did what I do best, write. I wrote an essay explaining exactly down to the littlest detail how I feel about the ‘wonderful’ place I have to go to for over seven hours a day. I had to turn it into my English teacher, so the only things I left out were the many obscenities I was just itching to include. Still, I think I captured perfectly the way I feel about High School, complete with stating my theme (High School is a prison). Here is the link: First Month of High School . If you choose to read it, I hope you enjoy it. Usually I fake most of essays, but I just couldn’t sugarcoat this one for some reason.

On the plus side, I finally got one good picture of me, which is now my new DA ID. Recently I've been adding a lot of works with my face,and it's not because I’m narcissistic (which I'm not). I think I’m trying to find the way I think of myself, and show it in picture format, and I’ve been coming up blank. So I’ll be taking a break from that project.

I’ve entered two of my pieces in a contest (which I am definitely not going to win, I can tell by looking at the other entries.) Express, Don't Repress Contest is the contest, and the two pieces are along with their explanation:

Faces in the Roses {Faces In the Roses is a distorted reflection. It might be what one person sees when they look at another or what someone might see when they look at themselves. The sadness is a characteristic that is not shown on the person's face in reality, but it is what they are really feeling.}

Lurker {Well, Lurker is sort of an 'Outside Looking In' sort of thing. It represents (or at least to me) the loneliness people feel when they are around something, but not part of it.}

The contest is really cool, so take part in it!

I've sort of come across a problem that I've never had before. I'm wondering if I should subject the rest of my writing—my fiction stories. They mean a lot more to me than my poetry and my school essays. As naive as it sounds, I have high hopes for my stories. I work extremely hard on them and half of my life is lived imagining life through the characters eyes. If any one were to steal any of, I would be devastated. That is not my only dilemma though—what if no one likes them, what if no ones even reads them? If some people would comment with their opinions, I'd be really grateful. I really want to post my stories--I guess I'm just a little scared!!!

Thanks for reading (even if you skipped to the end). Have a wonderful day/night depending on your time zone!

My name is Rowan. I'm a girl, though Rowan is a unisexual name. I have frizzy wavy golden brown/blond hair with black tips and soon some blue streaks, blue grey eyes at can look this awful murky shade if I wear the wrong color. I'm tall and clumsy which is a curse from a past life, I swear.

I suck at just about everything, especially sports. So I'll start with what I'm good at. Writing is one thing, perhaps photography would be another, and well... school. I like photoshoping, but I wouldn't count that. I can't draw worth a damn. My hand writing is awful and I have yet to organize all my papers.

Chocolate and macaroni and cheese are my favorite food and my Mom theorizes that I'll get fat one day. I hope not, but I refuse to curb my eating habits. Maybe my fast metabolism will stay in affect forever, or mayne I should quit whining and excerise more--who knows.

I like writing (obviously), reading, rock climbing, volley ball, graphic designing, cats, pigs, dogs, the colors black, blue, white, grey and cream. Shades of green, purple, orange, and red can be nice. Pink, brown, and yellow are colors I stay away from.

I'll pretty much watch, listen, or read anything. I love supernatural stuff and songs that have some sort of meaning, I don't care if its pop, rock, country, or alternative, I just don't like it to be mindless. Oh, and Rap is something I can barely tolerate, hip-hop sometimes.

I do tend to post a bit of crap in my gallery when I'm mad. I do experiment with different styles (I.E drawing, gosh I suck at drawing...but I try). Sometimes I post things that I'm iffy on to see if people favorite them. Usually, I don't like a lot of what I post; I just favor it more than other things. If I like what I make, I'll say it somewhere. I complain a lot... sorry about that. I tend to favorite, comment, and watch a lot. And, while I think honesty is great for most situations (including crimes and owning up to actions), sometimes it just doesn't work. I can also have low tolerance for the sun, bite my nails, be awfully unfeminine (my Mom hates this about me), be anti-social (another tragic flaw...sniffle. I guess calling High School students poor tortured souls [thanks Disney] and refusing to go to football games is a failure in any parent’s book. Why don't I care, then?), write what I just will not say, and happen to love small spaces. But that's just me :).
