Loving our devCommunity, happiness and happenings

Feeling Devious

For some reason, the deviantART World Tour ([link]) is making me feel very happy. It's like something in my daily life just got another dimension. I feel Devious. Damn, $spyed and $Heidi are so close, in Berlin! That's not even that far from my country. Closer than they'll ever get (unless they decide to visit the Netherlands, than I'll make sure I drop by on a devMeet). I love browsing through the photographs of devMeets in all those beautiful cities. It brought deviantART and its members closer for me and I understand even more now that we're just a bunch of artistic humans from all over the world, connecting with each other through our shared passion for art. I feel sorta proud at it. DeviantART is a good, friendly community and I don't feel like an Internet geek hanging out here. Thanks all of you out there :heart:

Yesterday I read a blog of someone who asked the question what I valued. I've answered that question before, for a research project of someones university yeah, I know, vague story. It's kinda simple: I value the peace of mind/happiness of myself and the ones around me. I even value the happiness of random people on the streets, I want to do good. I could talk hours about this, but that's not what I was going for. When i read this question I suddenly realized what kinda feeling always makes me very happy:

Waking up early and noticing you don’t expect anything of today. Not the weather, not the mood of your friends, not the challenges, the food or the way your body feels. Starting a day totally blank, I always feel like every breathe is important, every smell an adventure. I believe some people call that zen, but I hate labelling things. It just makes me feel alive, with a strong bond to everything that surrounds me.

So, I'll ask you the same:

What do you value or a random thing that makes you intensely happy?

OHYEAH, almost forgot (how could I?!): I'm going to get the most amazing birthday gift ever. My family are paying for it, so it's their present, but my own idea. I got myself a commission from *ShadowUmbre! How epic is that? I'm so excited. I read her journal where she asked for a job vaccanty applying art and on that moment I decided I'd give it a go. My first and maybe last commission and I think I made a wise choice. ShadowUmbre is very polite and she has been one of my favourite artists from the very first day I was on dA. Throughout this two years I followed her work, but I could've never ever dreamt I'd commission her one day.

And last but not least:
one of my favourite bands will be giving a concert in the Netherlands. MUSE! I want a ticket so bad, ticket-sale starts in two weeks, on the 13th. Two days before my birthday. So many exiting things :typerhappy:
But I'm going to bed now, I feel like reading.

Peace:fella:,

Hi there :)

I finally got a decent scan of the Sjamana piece I did, so it looks a lot better now [link] :XD:
Hey ! Just interest, but how are your tests going ;o??

×o×o

I wish I could write something interesting here, but all I can think of is this sentence.
mwoh, okay I guess. I've been very lazy this test week, but somehow I always manage to revise all the stuff and get decent grades. xD What about you?

p.s. One more test to go and then I'll be free :woohoo:

--
You don't need wings to fly, just use your imagination.
oh well. I actually have been lazy for four years long and, I also still manage to pass the year (last year because of 0,01 point XD!!!)

anyway, my tests are going crappy. I already have some grades back and they suck xD

Biology 3.9 O.o !!
Maths 5.6 (I am happy with this one because I suck at math xD)

So oh well. But I wouldn't mind if I don't pass this year. Because that gives me the change to understand it all better if I do it again, and then I can do my exams WAY more relaxed in my final year. BUt if I do pass, I really believe there is a God xD

I saw you walking btw. xD At about 8.45 or something xD You're wearing a black dress or something right xD? I was walking behnid you in the hall. xD

Yup, one more test to go. The worst xD I had German (THREE-HOUR-TEST O.o!! But I was finished after 75 minutes because German is easy like hell.) and now Science is waiting for me xD
THEN I AM FINISHED.
However Monday I have CKV-day. Dance-workshops! whooo !


Note the sarcasm.

Anyway. From tuesday to friday workexperience week and I believe, that I finally have vacation then. *sigh*.
But alot of things to look forward to !
I will be 16 at July 10th !! ^^ YAY for me ;3

×o×ó

ps. long message O.o!
