| Sounds cool.
Speaking of comics with interactive elements, there's a very good one by the name of Prequel. It was inspired by the Elder Scrolls games (specifically Oblivion, I believe,) for the setting, and by Homestuck for how it works, I think. It's pretty cool, and if you like RPG-type-stuff you should totally check it out.
Oh, but, a bit of warning. The main character is a recovering alcoholic cat person with extremely low self esteem who somehow manages to mess a lot of stuff up and get into a lot of trouble. |

| I've been doing some kind of soul searching and looking at my behavior and feelings, and I think I've come to a conclusion about what I want/what drives me.
The thing I like and want most is to share wonderful things and ideas with others. I like creating stuff and exploring ideas, but it's not as much fun unless I can get excited about those things with other people. I'm scared of people not liking my stuff and just ignoring it, since I had things like that happen in the past, and now those insecurities makes me think that I have to get good before I can get recognition. Making and sharing things that noone will see though seems like a waste and not fun, so I stress over how good things are cause I want people to not ignore it, so it those things would seem worth doing to me... It's most times an emotional tug-of-war.
I like to think that I'm slowly getting over this though. I've excepted my insecurities and fears, and I decided my priority is to focus on my back/health. So instead of making something to "get somewhere in life/get an audience", my priority isn't to make stuff, but if I want to make stuff to make myself feel better, then I can go for it! No need for quality if I'm doodling just cause it's feels nice! |

| Wow, the last post on here was in December...
So, does anybody have any interesting random thing they want to share? For me I've recently gained a strong interest in genetic engineering, i.e. modifying the DNA of stuff so it does what I want it to do.
Here's a link to a cool glowy-plant thing someone has managed to do: http://www.glowingplant.com/ |

| Yeah that's pretty cool. I seen a post about that glowing plant thing once before. If I had some place to plant them, I would've liked to get my hands on some.
I got a Jury Duty notice for April. I'm kind nervous cause they give you like no information at all about what to expect or how it works. |

| I've never had Jury Duty before. I've always kind of wanted it once to see what it was like! But I'm sure it's also really stressful. |

| Eh, it's just a thing for me, at leaat that's how I feel about it in general. It's just right now has too much to worry about, and I dont want to get in trouble just because something stupid and unavoidable happens.
The left side of my back has been really hurting for a couple days now, but I think it's healing up. |

| I'm sorry to hear your back hurts and that you're anxious. As I'm still a minor, I haven't gotten Jury Duty, though my parents have.
I'm glad to hear you're starting to heal, though!
(Personally I really like rain and colder weather, since I don't get all sweaty just by standing around...) |

| I was able to get rides to and from the court that day, so I'm not as nervous about it right now like I was before.
Also my mother will apparently be going to get surgery done on one of her legs 2 days after my jury duty. (She needs both legs done, but the doctors plan on doing one at a time) |

| Yay! Congrats on drawing again! I hope your mother's second surgery goes well, and that it's all good after that.
I've been working on a robot for a competition called Mech Warfare. Unfortunately, I was blind in my first match since my frequency was too close to my opponent's, and I was up against a veteran, too, and then in my second match I lost too, so I'm out of the tournament... TT-TT Oh well.
It was my first time doing something like this, so it's to be expected, but still. It would've been nice to win once, y'know? |

| Dang, better luck next time. Do you have any pics of your robot? I'd love to see it. Also did you name it? |

| Haha this is late, sorry. I do have some pics, though they're a little out of date by now. The robot is called Obsidian (or Onyx, I forget which one. There are two robots, with those names, but one is mine and one is my dad's.)
(I'll post some pictures later...) |

| It does, doesn't it? Personally, I think Onyx sounds really cool and is spelled in a really cool way, so who cares if it sounds like a pokemon name, right?
(Also pokemon are cool too and anyone who says otherwise can fite me irl.) |
