Sorry for the lack of art lately. I have been drawing but not much scanned recently. ^^; But I do plan to scanning some of the things I've drawn.

As for my life, I've gotten a few steps closer to getting a high-paying job. A couple weeks ago I applied for my TWIC card, which came in the mail a week later. And today I took my RSO class, and passed the test right after. Yay! :D In case you're wondering, TWIC is Transportation Worker Identification Credential, and RSO is Refinery Safety Officer. Both of those mean I can get to working in refineries like my mom!

Now I just need her to make some calls so she can recommend me and I can finally get to work! And what's better, I'll be making a lot of money! More than what my boyfriend makes as a busboy/janitor. We're even talking about saving up and getting a cheap apartment in town. I'm not sure exactly how much I'll be making, but I'm pretty sure it's more than minimum wage. I'm guessing roughly $12/13 an hour. Cha-ching! :D

Also I'll be celebrating 90 days sober next week, so as long as I keep not getting stoned, passing those drug tests should be no problem. XD plus if I'm working, I won't want to get stoned anymore. XD;; or at least I'll have no reason to.. <<;;

So yeah. Things are getting better and better. I'm clean, I have a great boyfriend, and I got pretty much everything needed to finally get my life back on track. I'm already planning on spending my first paycheck on a Ryuko Matoi cosplay along with the Scissor Blade. (I just hope the outfit I have in my wishlist on Amazon fits...)
Also my mom is gonna take me to San Francisco Comic Con in September for one reason and one reason only: Jason Mamoa. He's from Game of Thrones, who my mom has a HUGE celebrity crush on. She's always been a sucker for tough guys, especially if they're what she calls a "savage." XD;;
So yeah, planning on getting Ryuko Matoi off my cosplay list, especially since Taylor got me the wig for Christmas. I plan on doing that at the con Mom's taking me to. And she's planning on getting the outfit for Xena: Warrior Princess. I used to watch that with her growing up. She always told me that people told her that she looked like Xena. I could never see it, but I'm not passing an opportunity to see my mom in cosplay! XDDD

Yep. Just thought I'd give a happy little update on my life, which is now going great. Or at least it will once I get to work. :D
