You may have noticed, or maybe you haven't, but I haven't been on DeviantArt for several months. I didn't log in at all, and I only visited the site when I clicked a link that led to a deviation on here.
The thing is, I don't think I'll be on DeviantArt anymore...

It's not that I don't like drawing anymore. I'm just starting to feel stress from grades and college. I need to focus on my classes even more now, and decide if I really want to go to art college. I've just kinda lost my confidence in my drawings. No, no, it isn't anything to do with favs or comments. It has to do with the fact that I really don't think I'm cut out for art college anymore, when nearly my whole life so far was set on it.

I read an article about Pixar yesterday. It seems like a dream job! Such fun, but hard work. And dedication. All of that to get there too. I just don't feel like I'll make it... then where will I be?
sigh, And to be ironic, when I shut my eyes and deleted nearly all of my 5,000 accumulated messages, something caught my eye. A DeviantArt meet in San Francisco. I had been visiting San Francisco on that exact day, the whole day... It just made me feel more distant from this place. But don't get me wrong, the reason why I'm writing this doesn't have much to do with dA itself, you see.

I'm just at an unsure point of my life...
I don't know when I will return, if I do, I might not return to this account. (this account is ancient as it is, haha) I love my username though, so if I do create a new account, it will be something with larks. ;) (certainly will update this journal about it) No guarantees I will even return on this account or other, but I really wouldn't consider this a "I'm quitting deviantart."
It's more of a good bye... perhaps we'll run into each other tomorrow again. 
I might still login, just several times in a year though, just to check on my friends. :) May comment, but maybe you won't remember me anymore, haha. :b

Oh and this song I've been listening to describes how I feel perfectly. I'm not really religious, but I love this song all the same because it's just something uplifting.
It's called For the Moments I Feel Faint by Relient K. Maybe you'll take a liking to it too.

So finally, a fond adieu to DeviantArt, one of the best sites I'll ever be a part of, ever.
(And recall I'll visit, this site is too awesome to just leave completely. :))
