20 years

Posted 2 months, 17 days ago by sivanhe

Welp, it's February 17th. I'm 20 years old now.

I've been on Toyhouse for 4 years, and have been making my presence known on the internet for 7.

I've been through a lot over the years-- some times were better, some times were worse. But that's all a part of growing. Sure, I've had my fair share of trauma, but I've also had many more wonderful and memorable moments that'll stick with me forever.

Here's a list of some of the positive things I can think of that have happened in my life:
-I started drawing. WAYYYY back when I was a VERY little kid, before kindergarten even. If it weren't for my art, I don't know where I would be today.
-I got a dog-- a cockapoo, to be specific (yes, I know, a dreaded doodle). We got her when she was only a couple months old, and she's 13 years old now. Her name is Jewel, and she really is a gem of a dog.
-I discovered the furry community. While, yes, it has its fair share of drama, it's also one of the friendliest communities I've ever seen, if not THE friendliest, and it's helped shape who I am immensely, along with MLP-- the show, NOT the community LMAO
-I joined DeviantArt. Is the site a cesspit? Absolutely. Is it home? Also absolutely. 643 watchers and still counting very slowly :)
-I got a piece of My Singing Monsters fanart featured on their official Twitter and Facebook pages. I can't find the Twitter post, but I do have the Facebook post.
-I became an aunt of two wonderful little munchkins.
-I met some amazing teachers, throughout both elementary and high school. They've helped me in so many ways, and I can't thank them enough.
-I freed myself from an abuser who had been hurting me and my friends for a long time. It helped me grow a backbone that I've needed for years.
-I got Little Guy copyrighted, and am currently working on a series of children's books with him as the star.
-I got together with the love of my life, The_AViD. If you're reading this, Avid, I love you so much. You make my days brighter   

...And there's still much more to come!

My heart goes out to all of the wonderful people I've met over the years, online and in real life. You're all amazing <3

Swag! And Siv, I do consider you one of my closest 3 friends! We've been through a lot and we always stuck together, I'm honestly super grateful I met you :] Plus I even got to watch your art improve over the years we have know each other, and I can't wait to see that talent grow more. 

I look forward to another awesome year with an awesome person (you)! I'll always be rooting for you friend :]

I'm so glad I met you tool! Watching you improve over the years was awesome to see as well, and I'm glad you've stuck with me in dark times too :]

I'll always root for you too, bud. You're the coolest cryptid I've ever met JHSFDG
