CherBear's Thoughts: Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween everyone!

There's always something about today that makes it fun. I only have a couple of hours before I don on some animal pjs & greet little trick or treaters by the door. 

I've been feverishly trying to get some contests done within the next couple of days but I've been also playing games & attempting to get my name out there more in other games that I've found myself playing. I'm trying not to do it in excess ... really trying but meeting new folks who may or may not be friends in the long run.

If you've been following my tumblr: http://mscherbear.tumblr.com/ or http://cherbearsketchbook.tumblr.com/ you may or may not have been seeing me post more pictures up on tumblr. I blame my new phone & just the ability to take random scenic, food & animal pictures once again on such a random whim & post'em on instagram (id user: lilcherbear). 

I continue onto the month of November & ending this year to look for work while working on artwork. My trip to Las Vegas & any other celebration that involved weddings are long behind me, so the holiday gatherings with family & relatives are on the horizon. 

Keeping it simple but busy. So I wish everyone once again a - Happy Halloween. Please stay safe out there while trick or treating or whatever you do while having fun. I look forward to the next month & end of the year with optimism.

CherBear's Thoughts: Mini Update before Halloween

So obviously I have a lil bit to say before Halloween ...

First off; I do apologize, if I haven't been busy going to meet ups or hanging out with locals, I've found myself catching a cold that had put me out for about a week. How do I feel? Well I've gotten better, considering I'm a slow healer, it took me a week to recover.

I haven't ... really had a chance to draw because I've been going out, looking for work, being sick or being caught up in mmo games. Mmo games? Well there is World of Tanks, mStar, World of Warcraft or Audition Online: Redbana. I'm trying to ease up & re-prioritize my time in order to actually even try to participate in contests that have deadlines & work on other artwork I've had held off on doing.

Lastly ... I had decided on a sheer whim to start an instagram, so if anyone would like to follow me my user id is lilcherbear I take random obscure pictures, food & other things while I am out & about that eventually either get posted onto my tumblr & twitter. 

Other than that ... I am ready for Halloween. Looks like I will be passing out candy alone but either way, I have fun looking at folks in costume so I look forward to this year too. Until then ... take care!

CherBear's Thoughts: Happy Birthday Thoughts!

First off ... Happy Birthday to deviantART @MiloBear! It is also our lil 5yr Audi Anniversary together since we had officially coupled in game. I know, some people can see that it's a little silly I know, but sentimentally sweet considering we've kept at it for this long. He's been a wonderful Audi/mStar/5Street/HighStreet couple & has put up with my craziness for this long. So feel free to leave a message w/ him if you want. I just want to put that out there. 

=====

Now down to business ... Happy October everyone! There's always something in the air about this month that is always nice. No, not for all those folks who are subjected to wildfires this time of the year (...like me.) but for the fun, mystery & madness.

I hadn't really been able to post until now & I've been playing catch up. Why? Because of my recent trip to Vegas for a family wedding. How was it? Good! I hadn't been back to Las Vegas in a while so being there was nice & all the yummy food there.

Shortly after, I decided to unwind & well there was another lil anniversary I celebrated which was quaint.

Now that I'm still catching up, I hope to get through all these messages eventually & be back up to speed. I have a lot of other things to do so hopefully we'll see where it goes.

As for the job hunt, I had a few calls, a few interviews but no call backs, just means more searching while working on commissions & expanding past that with some other options I haven't fully committed to yet.

The rest of the month looks to be calm, maybe another wedding I think but other than that, no trips I think but you never know.

=====

Gaming time --

Audition Online: Redbana - Guilty enough, I haven't been on but I have been keeping track of what's been going on. I do see there is at least one contest, I wanna participate for fun so I look to hopefully work on that.

mStar: Garena/Singapore - I've yes, been playing this game a lil more frequently. I had initially told this to my sis PieBear- who eventually coaxed me to start too. It's been fun & I've been trying my hand at some fan art for here for a lil change of pace. I've had a couple of friends join me too.

HighStreet5: Singapore - Inactively inactive, but I hope to reinstall & see what's been going on there.

World of Tanks: NA West - I've been getting into something completely different, admittingly its fun when I want a change of pace & just roam in a tank, shoot & blow things up.

World of Warcraft: Farstriders - I haven't logged on recently due to running around a lot. I know the rest of LFR is up so I hope to try that out with @MiloBear sometime & see how that goes.

=====

Last but not least; since this is a new month, I'm looking for 4 more to feature throughout the rest of October. As you do know, I occassionally do journal memes & lil announcements such as this, I already have 1 for the birthday boy but I'd love to feature others. If you managed to read the end of this & would like to be featured, reply & I will add you shortly! New featured artwork for this month too & other than that, time to go back & work on some things or play video games or do something important. Take care for now!
