This is the place where you can personalize your profile!
But, how?
By moving, adding and personalizing widgets.
You can drag and drop to rearrange.
You can edit widgets to customize them.
The bottom has widgets you can add!
Some widgets you can only access when you get a premium membership.
Some widgets have options that are only available when you get a premium membership.
We've split the page into zones!
Certain widgets can only be added to certain zones.
"Why," you ask? Because we want profile pages to have freedom of customization, but also to have some consistency. This way, when anyone visits a deviant, they know they can always find the art in the top left, and personal info in the top right.
Don't forget, restraints can bring out the creativity in you!
Now go forth and astound us all with your devious profiles!
November was a crazy busy month, but it turned out to be (for the most part) really good.
To start with, my JET Programme application is in and processing. The application process was crazy, but it is over now. I got two great letters of recommendation and I wrote what I hope is not too cheesy of a statement of purpose. I think that I have a fair chance of getting in, but only time will tell. I am really hoping that I get to teach at a university or collage in a major city (I met a guy who taught at a nursing collage in Osaka), but I will be fine with where ever they put me (if they take me at all).
Working is picking up quite a bit and I am starting to get more and more hours. Which is a good thing because I just had to replace my alternator on my car. Last Wednesday on my way home from a friends house the charge battery light came on. After much testing and fiddling I discovered that the pigtail connector that connects the alternator to the fusible link was loose so the tightened it up and hoped that was the end of it. Unfortunately it was not, and for the last week the light will occasionally turn on and then turn back off. I went and got my alternator tested and it turned out that it was giving up the ghost. So I had it and the pigtail connectors replaced. Cool thing is, the alternator that was in there was the factory installed alternator, which means it lasted for almost 20 freakin' years! Man, Toyota knows how to make a car.
That is all the news I can think of right now, I will likely be putting up some pictures soon (yeah, I know I know, I have said that before) and will try to update my journal more often. If I do wind up in Japan then I think I will turn this into a photo blog about my time in Japan.
busy busy busy. lol. I haven't had a whole lot of time to myself recently, but aside from that things are going well. How have you been?

Things are pretty good. Been a bit busy. My brother is getting married, so there is lots to do. Well, I was suppose to be starting school this Monday, but apparently, the classes I registered for online are not there anymore. I don't know why. So I'm going to the school on Monday and hopefully it'll be resolved.

What classes are you taking? Do they look like they are going to be fun?

Hey Chris! I haven't talked to you in a while. How've you been? Just thought I'd stop by and say Hi = D Ugh I got my wisdom teeth removed yesterday. Feelin very dizzy,blaaah.

Sorry I haven't been on recently, my thesis is kicking my ass. It sucks having your wisdom teeth removed. I had mine taken out about 3 years ago, I never really had a problem with pain (I took monster pain pills), but the worse part was the cotton in the mouth and the swelling. I hope you have healed well, and I hope I will get to talk to you soon.
