Hey guys as you've probably noticed I'm not super active on here currently, I don't really have anything to post. Actually I may have a couple books I made but that's about it recently. I mainly just come on here to check the One Piece group at this point. 

If I have any watchers here that are active and see this I am over at calebsmalphas.tumblr.com/ now if you wanna follow. 

As for an update ah lets see...I still live at home but my parents moved out haha (my Dad's job provided them with a unit to live in where they moved to so they were able to keep the house) so now I live with my partner and our housemate. I started a new job back in November/December and my probation just ended and they really like me so I'm staying on! I really like it, it's interesting and my co-workers are nice. 

My laptop died a couple weeks ago and it was just still under warranty so it got fixed and but then it turned out the hard drive was faulty too so I had to call back and get that replaced. My warranty runs out literally tomorrow. So that will be the last fix and next time I'll just have to get a new laptop. I was able to back everything up too so I didn't lose anything. 

I've been reading a lot in the past year, so hit me up if you're into Chronicles of Nick/Darkhunters, The Foxhole Court, Half Bad trilogy, The Raven Cycle or Six of Crows. 

Ahh that's about all I can think of. 
How're you guys??

So I think it's time I clean up my DA. I'm going to slowly be doing this since I am also revamping my old OC's and improving them. 
So basically I'll be deleting old OC things as I update them. 

I am so frustrated with my past self because it's so hard to find info on my OC's haha. 
But the one's getting a revamp are:
Trip, Flint, Aya, Kat, Jacky, Zel, Jo and Jannali. Well these ones are my priority so I might do the rest after these. I bet no one really remember's them haha (they're all One Piece OC's). Trip's not really going to have very many change's I'm still pretty happy with him. 

Also probably going to delete most of my photos too. Might keep some old non-oc related artwork up though, just for comparison. I dunno yet though. 

But yeah I think a clean up is way overdue. 

So I finally got all my marks back from uni and I passed everything So I have completed my course!! Don't have to repeat anything next year just have to apply for graduation in March~ 

Feels great to not have to study.

Also I have a job in the industry I was studying so I'm all set for now. I'm in print production and there's some design involved and stuff. I'm currently on Christmas break but I'm nervous for going back because my boss is in Japan until mid Feb and I'll be running it on my own (after only being there like 2 months?) So long as it's not overwhelmingly busy I can handle it, he said usually its not that busy in Jan and Feb so hope that goes well. 

How're you guys??

I think my tablet just died, yesterday it started to stop responding for a few seconds every now and then (the light would turn off) and then today its been doing that but for longer periods of time and now its been off for a while. I've restarted my laptop in case its that but it won't change and plugging it in again won't change anything either. It's almost 3 years old now is that a normal life span for these? (this was my first).

Thank god all my relatives for some reason gave me a heap of gift cards for my birthday earlier this year for the only store that sells these. Wish I still had a job though.

It seems to be a thing that something I need for my assignments breaks at the end of the year. Last year it was my laptop 2 weeks before everything was due. At least this time they're due in like 4 weeks. 

Oh yeah I got back a week ago and forgot to say so haha. 

How's everyone??

Europe was great and I miss the food. It was an art trip so I saw so much art and am kind of sick of it right now. Like there is only so much art one can take. I went to the Venice Biennale which was awesome. Now I have to write a review of one of the exhibitions for an assignment.

Getting back though was the worst. Our flight was delayed 10 hours in Dubai so I got back a day later than planned because we ended up having to overnight in Sydney too. At every single fucking airport we'd go to check in for the flight and no one would know what was going on with our group. So every time we just got shoved off to see someone else and waited around for hours. At one point we had organised with quantas a different flight so we'd only be delayed an hour and not 10. They were like yeah we've booked you on this flight. We go to get the tickets and oh yeah you're not actually booked on this flight. ?? anyway kinda over airports right now haha

I think Würzburg in Germany and Bilbao and Barcelona in Spain were my favourite places on this trip. 

I'm not sure what my favourite thing I did was though, every time someone asks I don't know how to answer. See my lecturer told us that we will see a lot of art but every trip peoples favourite things are always something they did outside of that in the spare time. But you know what I did in my spare time? Get dragged around to more art places that weren't on the tour (See the people who I was with complained about being sick of art and yet they still went to more museums and galleries?? I don't get it). And I can tell you none of those were my favourite which is why I'm a bit over art which is really unfortunate. Don't get me wrong I enjoyed the entire trip but its just hard to pinpoint my absolute favourite part of it. I did really enjoy my last day in Barcelona though because I decided fuck it and went off into the city on my own and did my own thing instead of having to follow a group. I didn't even get lost  
I guess Frankfurt Zoo was pretty good but I'm a bit concerned about some of the animals health there...

I'll put some photos up later.
