Deviation Actions
DeviantArt has aLways been about the peopLe for me. I Love to discuss art, and aLso to Learn more about the amazing peopLe that popuLate this site whiLst being scattered aLL across the gLobe.
I wiLL be traveLLing to the United States in June 2008. During this time I'd Love to coordinate a "deviantArt Road Trip", that starts in Georgia, USA, and finishes in New York City. I think that it wouLd be a once-in-a-Lifetime experience, and wouLd provide everyone invoLved with some amazing materiaL, and a greater sense of community.
So...what wiLL this entaiL you ask?
I envisage a journey by car, staying either in groups at moteLs aLong the way, or at peopLe's houses, depending on the number of peopLe in each Leg. Now I understand this may prohibit many deviants under the age of 18 from attending, especiaLLy in terms of safety, but I was aLso thinking of finding a few pLaces in each state to stop, and take photos, on top of rest stops.
TraveLLing in car convoys to different Locations is probabLy the safest way to traveL, as it enabLes us to keep an eye out for each other, and aLso to change drivers if needed. PLus, peopLe can join and Leave aLong the way according to their commitments.
We can keep costs down by booking accommodation in "buLk", and aLso by sharing what we can in terms of food. FueL wiLL be the biggest cost I can see, but I don't see that many peopLe being abLe to do the whoLe thing, so I guess I'LL probabLy be the onLy one wearing that cost, which is fine.
I am currentLy taking expressions of interest from peopLe, and aLso suggestions on Landmarks aLong the way that wouLd make good stopping points.
It wiLL be a giant devMeet!
Your suggestions, comments and ideas wouLd be weLcomed. I wiLL be donating subscriptions to 3 peopLe, picked at random, that provide me with feedback, so I'm hoping to get some great ideas!
Thanks for your time!

Housing and Blogging
Howdy!
Hope you're all doing well this year. My 2012 is already infinitely better than my 2011 (not that that was hard). I'm still blogging, and taking photos for my blog every day, so now that I'm easing back into it I'm ready to start planning jaunts with my Canon again! :) So hopefully you'll see some new work from me soon!
I'm in the process of finally getting my finances in order, which is a relief to be honest! I'm going to rent for 6-12 months more, and then apply to purchase a house. I just want to start getting some stability :)
What's going on with you all? xx
Love, Jess :heart:
Blogging in 2012
I've been blogging daily for the last 20 days now, and am really starting to get into the swing of things :) For those who don't know, my blog is located at http://flibbertigibbetsanonymous.wordpress.com and I blog every day. I mainly talk about food, and travel.
2012 has been an eventful year already, and we're only into Day 10. I've had some significant friend changes and am working on moderating my reactions to them. I'm also working on remembering who I DO have in my life, instead of who I don't.
I don't have many resolutions in 2012, but I'm full steam ahead on the goals I've already set:
:bulletpurple: Reduce my weight by 10kg by 1 A
Appreciation
Having been a moody soul for quite some time, I have to thank you all for my regular reality check. Thankyou from the bottom of my very large and slightly damaged heart for reminding me that I am loved and appreciated. You're all legends. :heart: :heart: :heart:
It's coming up to that famously introspective time of year, and I'm ready to think about my next set of resolutions. I've had 2011's resolutions on my sidebar all year, and have been working on achieving quite a few, which I'm proud of!
My resolutions for next year are simple:
:bulletgreen: Live for me. Every day. MY happiness and wellbeing need to remain my number one priorities.
Waiting for 2012
It's been a long year. 2011 has in fact thrown more at me than I ever expected.
I've lost friends, gained friends, moved house, changed jobs, travelled internationally, lost 18kg and been diagnosed with diabetes.
I can't wait for 2012.
I've been blogging over the last few days, and will attempt to keep my blog and my account here more active. If you're interested in my ramblings they can be found here: http://flibbertigibbetsanonymous.wordpress.com/
(By the way, the word flibbertigibbet is AWESOME)
Hope you're all well, and hard at work creating and feeding your passions. I'm going to be doing the same in 2012.
Oh, and I'm going to devo

You should stop in D.C., if you are going to the U.S. you might as well stop in the nations capital and sight-see (plus it's were I live.)
P.S. My name is Jess too!
