YES. Finally getting back on. I really missed updating, trust me I did. And thank you all who were supportive as I went through a few more mountains life gave me to climb.

I'll try to make this short.

Stress
I knew the 1st reason I decided to take a week or so off was because I was under a lot of stress from taking on too much at once. Tests I had to take, thinking of college, marriage, and more.

Death
If ya'll didn't hear, one of my greatest friends and basically my second father passed away last November. I broke down for a good two weeks and was still mourning the weeks to come. More info in this journal: Strawberry Fields Forever

BTW, I'm still accepting pictures if you would like to contribute.

Crash
Even though I was still a little out of it from Bebo's death, I tried coming back online only to have my desktop cut out on me. Literally, my desktop disappeared. Turned out my laptop got a horrible virus and I had to reformat the whole thing. I lost just about EVERYTHING. Including photoshop.

Photoshop
I got a copy from a friend. yay~


——-Page Stuff——-

Hey! Like the new CSS coding I've used to remake my page? A friend at work made 80% of it and I just fixed the little flukes thanks to someone on the DD forums, while teaching myself. I'll probably add images to the BG and divs sometime.

I think I have a good grasp on CSS now. I should be able to create a cast page and etc, so this front page stays clean. I dunno if I want to move all my fanart into a separate page though. I like giving people plugs when I show off what they've done for me. I love ya'll~

Which, btw, I still got fanart while I was taking leave. You people are too sweet! Thanks so much, this update is for ya'll. ;o;

I'll post fanart at the end of the dream sequence.

Overall, Hi Everyone! Rina's back! *smooshhuggles all around*
