It has been over a week since my new computer arrived and I haven't really uploaded anything. This is not because I haven't been drawing, it just takes some time to get back into things 
What I have been up to
I have been re-learning using the tablet and been trying to get my lines more stable and pretty, as well as testing brushes and figuring out what I like to use. I'm also working very slowly
Yesterday I spent almost 2 hours linearting a contest entry for a contest I want to attend, and I'm not even half way there (and I'm probably going to re-do most of it because I can't help myself...). I livestreamed the last hour of it just to test it, and only gave the link to a few of my friends to get some feedback.
I hope to start livestreaming a lot after the easter holiday (maybe early-mid April?) but since my exams are in May-June. We will see
I'm also in the process of selling my motorcycle, I will most likely spend the money on a new tablet. I have had a few issues with the one I have now, and it doesn't seem to be driver-related. The tablet I have in mind is a Cintiq 13HD because I'm having trouble with the disconnect beween where I see and where I draw.

I'm not even sure what to title this
This is not a rant, just me trying to put it into words. I'm sorry if it sound negative.
But
I don't think I can be on this site right now. My hand is not back to normal, I don't know when or if it ever will. This makes it hard for me to constantly feel like I should draw.
I have good days where I can draw, but the situation is difficult, and feeling like I should be active here just adds a ton of extra stress and negative feelings on top of the stuff I'm already dealing with.
This journal probably doesn't even make sense. It's not a big deal right? I could just... not use dA.. right?
Well, for me it's important, and I can't just ignore
I will be back
I'm just going through some stuff, and I need time to get past it. I'm not in a state of mind that lends itself to improve and grow with my art, so I'm going to keep it all to myself for a while. This is why I haven't been posting anything in ages.
When it comes to art I owe, I just need time. For those who wants to cancel or get an update on any art trade / collab / etc, just send me a note. I will reach out to a few people about how their art is coming along and how this will affect it later when things have calmed down a little bit.
I hope everything is well for everybody! <3 I will be back and active again as soon as I can ^^
I'm so
Hand update thingy
Update (14/04/2016):
It has been about 10 days since my surgery, and I seem to be recovering well. I can move my hand around and don't have the same pain as I have had the last year. Sadly my hand is very stiff and sometimes it can really hurt. It might get better over the next 4-5 weeks since then is my all clear to start lifting things.
I have been doodling some on paper for the last 3 days or so, just to get the feel for it again. Mostly dragons from flight rising, but also some things to practice to do the art I owe people. Probably not going to upload anything untill after my exams (done in mid June)

Edit (April 1st): My surg
Happy New Year!
I'm a few days late, but I wanted to wait untill I got back from my holiday c:
The last 2 weeks was spent with cat cuddles and delicious food, a great ending to a crappy year!
As many others I have some resolutions for 2016, but mostly just life/health improving stuff that happens to "start" now c:
It looks like I will have to wait a few months before getting my operation for my hand. I'm going to a discussion-thingy in early-mid february, and after that I probably have to wait for a little while. I hope that I can get it quickly so that it doesn't affect this semester too much.
That's about it ^^ I hope you all had an amazing holiday, an
