Life update

5 min read
So I haven't really been on here in a long time so I thought i'd update everyone who cares about what's going on in my life.

I think the last time I was really active on here I was living in Chicago, going to art school; from there I ended up having to drop out due to lack of money and no place to live. I ended up staying in Chicago for a few more months, living with one of my buddies from school (Michael). Michael was still in school and I was just at his house all the time, it was really awesome living with him but I felt useless. I ended up meeting my (soon to be) ex boyfriend, Jude, on instagram and we immediately hit it off. We got too serious too fast and I ended up moving in with him all the way to Oregon. It was going great at first but I think, like I said, it was just too fast. 

I stayed in Oregon for a few months before I needed to go back and live with my mom in Ohio (due to me not having health insurance in Oregon and needing dental work and my inhalers). So Jude moved to Ohio with me and stayed there for a few months also, they ended up moving back to Oregon and I came with them again. But at that time our relationship was super rocky and I just felt stuck. Since, no matter where we were one of us was thousands of miles from our families I had a really hard time ending it. We ended up moving back to Ohio again; at that point I should have ended it before I brought them back with me but again, I felt stuck and confused. Our relationship was a lot more toxic than I thought and I was blinded to most of it at the time. All we would do is fight and we hardly got along anymore. We ended up getting jobs and working to save up for an apartment (which we never got together).

So in July, I got the opportunity to meet my best friend of 5 years (who I met on here when I was 15), Parker ( xPARKERR ) at Warped Tour. I drove to St Louis without Jude to meet him and we instantly clicked. I felt a spark I never felt before with anyone. I ended up staying for 3 days there and we both knew we had feelings for eachother more than just sexual tension. When I had to go back to Ohio I was greeted by Jude starting a fight with me and I just broke down and I didn't realize how unhappy I was with them until I went to St Louis and I didn't want to leave. When you don't even want to come home to your significant other that says something.. So I broke up with them. They couldn't go back to Oregon for another month and through that whole month I drove back and fourth multiple times to St Louis to hang out with Parker (as best friends at the time). Parker was planning on moving to Cincinnati (where I lived) to go to college at the beginning of August so we were excited for that. 

Jude moved out and me and Parker ended up getting together and we've been together ever since. They went to college for a semester and ended up hating the school and the city. We both went through multiple jobs and ended up saving up enough to get an apartment together. We moved out of my moms house and into our first apartment and lived there for a year, we started planning to go to our dream college together in Columbus called The Columbus College of Art and Design. In Jan of this year we moved to Columbus and got our 2nd apartment together. Through the 2 years of being together we've been to Chicago twice and we took a vacation to Siesta Key and Disney World with my family. I bought my dream car, being a mini cooper. We've gone through financial hardships and fought our depression together. We've truly grown up together from the time we were 15 and 16 to now being 21 and 22, and I can honestly say that with the help of Parker I can finally say I'm happy, not only with my relationship but with myself. 

So with all of that being said, me and Parker have an interview with The Columbus College of Art and Design admissions on Monday (5/16) to go over our portfolios and hopefully find out if we'll be able to get in.

2. If you comment, please do the same in your journal, and put me in the first feature slot. The idea of this is not to get a free feature, it is to spread art around for everyone!

I'm not really good at this stuff but, I really like the story behind Tobias and just how he looks and his background and such.

I can really see improvement in their work after knowing them for a while. I can tell they like drawing their friends and that's awesome.
