Yeah, just didn’t necessarily feel like posting much for a while.
Plus, I just went through one of those “hell weeks” again. This one seems to be one of the worst so far. And now I SEVERELY ABHOR a couple of unmentionable names as a result. It’s this kind of people that just gets underneath my skin for all possible reasons. But I’ll save the rest for a later time…say…how about graduation time in May?
But, on to more desirable matters now…
First off, let me get this off of my chest: happy birthday to me (if you all noticed). I finally turned 18 on Saturday (without much event to mark it until later). Among the things that I received over the last week as presents, if you could call them that:
1) my dad sent me a card with 20 bucks in it.
2) NC A&T sent me a card (“from the Aggie family!”)
3) We finally had a b-day party on Sunday, where I had a big single piece of Ice cream cake. Yum…. X-P
4) I received a registration card from the Selective Service System (oh god, no. *_*)
And to top that off, Mom has finally started looking for the tax form from 03, but I doubt that she’ll be able to find it at all…*sigh*
Anywho, I wish unimaginably great things for all of my Aquarian b-day compadres this year. Go Uranus!
Now I’m off to school…
Hey I noticed you added me to your friends list, and anyway, I thought you might be intersting to chat with on MSN and AIM so I added you to my list. I haven’t met many people of color in the furry fandom, because as I am sure you have noticed, the good majority of the furry fandom is white, so it would be really interesting to discuss the racial dynamic of the fandom from someone of that perspective. Also I notice you moderate tons of communities, and cool ones at that. Well incase it doesn’t come up, My AIM name is AnjelRaine, and my MSN is Gamernerdgoddess@hotmail.com
Look foward to chating with you.
aye, I’ve been asked about my color/race/whatever alot when talking to furs and weres (particularly when I show my actual picture), and one person was surprised that I was of African ancestry as well, since, truly, most furs and weres are of either European or Asian ancestry (Asians less so, however).
And actually, even though I am a SERIOUS purveyor of anthro/fur art, I’ve come to the realization that my interests, as far as the fur and were thing is concerned, aren’t necessarily resident within the furry fandom. RPs are something that I’ve never gotten into, to be honest, and anthro art (or ANY art, for that example) is something that I’ve never been good at.
Instead, I’m more of a person of words (Feb. 5 is known as the day of Quiet Eloquence within the personology/b-dayology world), and I’ve always had a strong affinity toward therianthropy and shapeshifting, as well as the whole “animal nature” thing (which is why I take shapeshifting and therianthropy more seriously than most furres), so I find myself residing within the “were category”, or the were stereotype, and I usually say that I’m a were rather than a furre.
And I’ve added you as a contact on Windows messenger, even though I prefer YIM over all other IMs. Do you yahoo?
Yes I do. gamernerdgoddess@yahoo.com Look foward to chating with you more soon.
