The best of all gifts around any Christmas tree: the presence of a happy family all wrapped up in each other. ~Burton Hillis

It's only the first week of December and it it's already beginning to feel a lot like Christmas. I suppose it's because finals are next week and break starts early this year!! Yay colleges on the quarter system!!

With all the Christmas happiness I find it very hard to sit down and study T^T. I keep wanting to doodle and just... not work... but then again, when do I not feel that way XD Anyhow, I have sooo many things I want to update with, so many doodles and such that I haven't been able to upload I'll probably start getting some up once break starts

Just wanted to share my newest Christmas joy! I've been making a bunch of those little bread keychains along with some mario themed ones (yay for mushrooms). One of my friends who sells jewelry as a side hobby took my keychains to sell at some shows. I was SO amazed!! I totally sold out and people were asking me for requests!!! I'm so happy! I've already made a good $20 I guess that means people like my stuff enough. Hopefully I'll be able to start selling them online at a new site I made with my sister (unfortunately it hasn't been edited and prettyfied yet, but I'll plug it in my journals once it's up and running) and my wonderful friend Yumedarling asked me if i wanted to do an artists alley table with her for AX... and now that I think about it (and sales are so good) I think it'd be really REALLy fun!!

ya, anyway, Merry Christmas y'all!

btw, take a look at this christmas contest :3 I love art contests even though I rarely end up joining... I really want to [link]
