Oh wow! Thankies so much everyones that has taken that little bit of time over that last 5 years+ to look here ^_^ I know I've been inactive at times, and I've drawn some really bad pieces in other times, but I really appreciate all the support that this has given me. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be uber busy in final year of graphic design degree without DA, so thankies so so much everyones ^_^

Will still endeavor to keep up with what's going on here and try and put up what I can/allowed of my work :) Did some illustrations for an iphone app that may get published... will seeeeeeeee and try keep updated if anyone is interested.... but thanks so much again!

Love, love, cheesecake, love,

Iggy x

I upate this so rarely now. But I do get so busy. Now it's the 3rd year so will be uber busy. I think I'm going to get an account to stand along side my portfolio that's more professional. But this one will stay. I'll link as and when that happens. And when my online portfolio website goes up. I'm going to be really busy though. But I do very much appreciate that people still look here. I'm not gone. Just busy ^^; I will try my best to be a bit more active on here and reply and thank more when I can. You guys do deserve more :D

Taggage for once

Tagged by :iconkiwichameleon:

1. Post these rules.
2. Each tagged person must post 8 things about themselves on their journal.
3. At the end, you have to choose and tag 8 people and post their icons on the same journal.
4. Go to their pages and send a message saying you tagged them.
5. No tag-backs.


8 things about me:

1. I love cheesecake :D

2. I love rats! Best pets ever! :love:

3. When I was little I really wanted to be a vet, and even started taking the A-levels in order to do it. However I realised that because I wasn't moved up, regardless of the masses of promises to move me out of the intermediate maths set that I was top of for year, I struggled to do A-level Maths and had to take an alternative instead.

4. I absolutely can't stand our consumerist driven society, and the fact that corporation make things 'consumable' to make them more money when there is no need for them to be 'consumable'...

5. ...like electronics that either break or are 'out-dated' quickly or fashion. It makes me so sad that we has such a negative impact on the environment, poorer people and ourselves (see [link] -storyofstuff.com to see the link

6. I love cherries ^-^ so cute a tasty!

7. I have about 15 paper, plastic, rubber and material bands on my right wrist from gigs I've been to. Some from late September, though on is a Reading band ^-^. I don't get how the paper ones last so long, but they do ^-^ (and yes I do wash them and that arm which is why I wonder how they've lasted).

8. I'm currently addicted to LittleBig Planet, which I play whenever i go to a friends with a PS3. Poor them ;p

It's been a while...

Thu Oct 23, 2008, 8:27 AM
Yeah ok, I've been afraid of updating this journal as my last one had picture of my pert rat Faith. But she was happy and she's gone, so this journal was in desperate need to move on.

So this is is. I think reading the journal of Jeff Thomas (Azuzephre) kinda touched me a bit in the fact I find things have made my creativity more difficult. Mind nowhere near as bad as his situation, plus I've learnt things that I want to include in my work and I can't get there . But I guess in the end I'm feeling distanced from the creativity that I enjoy so much and I'm trying my best to connect things back up, and produce what is truly me and what i know I'm capable of.

I keep wanting to start this account all over again. I've had it for so long and there are things which are completely unrelated to me now and I don't want to be labelled for them. However I realise that there are people that really like some of the things here and I don't want to take them away. In then end I think i may just start up a new account, but still have this one to communicate and add anything that still fits here.

I don't know when but it'll happen. I hope I can stop over thinking things in my attempts to distance myself and actually get work I'm proud of again so I can share it. Anyways that my thoughts for now.

Thankies as always for your support to everyone that faves, comments or just enjoys whatever I have put out there regardless of my opinion.

Much Love - Iggy x

#[How can this world be so cruel to take something so pure, warm, loving and happy. We miss you so much xxx]
.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*

I still find it hard to accept this, and yet times I do after seeing her look so peaceful and happy when I said my goodbyes before cremation on Thursday. It's like a twillight zone, and she deserves so much. So here for now is what I texted my friends and family to let them know on Tuesday, along with a link to the picture which accompanied that message:



:iconigtica:here is the penultimate picture of my beautiful faithy baby who passed away this morning. Faith was having an op 2 remove lumps caused by an unknown problem. she was 2 b spayed also in an effort 2 stop the problem. as they came 2 this 2nd part of the op she was lost due 2 the anesthetic. it seems so wrong that one that could love life + as happy as she could b lost. she was never in any pain, at least her problem can't cause any now. she helped me so much in a difficult part of my life. i owe her so much. the moment she was in ur company it was like a warm wave of happiness washed over u. sweet, cheeky + incredibly loving, i'm going 2 miss u so. i'm told she had a happy life + i hope it was so. i'm so sorry to lose u my adorable friend. your warmth + love will live forever in my heart. sleep well sweetie. make sure u + ni take care of each other. miss you so much already. all our love mummy + anya xxxxxx

#[Nienna's Anniversay of Passing Note]
.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*

I kept meaning to update and thank everyone for the messages for Ni's anniversary of passing. Time is passing so quickly, I feel a bit lost with things atm. But I really, really appreciate those messages. They went in a card that was put on her grave. I now have the cards on her grave as it needs to be prepared for Faith to be next to her, but we both appreciate them so so much. I was deeply touched by your words and I wish I had updated you all sooner.
