A few days ago I have suddenly realized , that those last journals I have written, have consisted of almost nothing but commission updates and 'thank you'-posts for all those who have wished me a happy birthday and for a minute I had to laugh at the latter!
This year I am turning 27 and in regards to DeviantArts 20th birthday this means that I am posting on this website for over 11 years now! (I used to have another account from which I had moved to this one).
So many things have happened since then!
2009 - Bitcoin has been created
2010 - The Haiti earthquake took place
2011 - the progressing protests across MENA region and- of course - the catastrophy of Fukushima! Also, Guttenberg, you naughty little boy
2012 - one of the worst years for Greenlands ice deposits
2013 - The NSA-Skandal. Also, reddit found out that NASAs Mars rovers have accidentally drawn a dick on Mars?
2014 - first recurring epidemic of Ebola in a series of epidemics, as well as the starting year of the European migrant crisis, as well as the Krim crisis, <small>also Germany has won the football world cup</small> - pew, what a year!
2015 - Charlie Hebdo
2016 - uuh....*cough*....well. A certain European country voted that it no longer wanted to be PART OF THE TEAM. Also this was my most productive year regarding art!
2017 - Dolandino Trumperino
2018 - Trump meets Kim, Zuckerberg turned his own trial into a meme show and the Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi gets murdered with evidence being caught practically on camera and the accused individuals - like - successfully managed to jump off the hook?
2019 - the burning of Notre Dame, the birth of black hole chan, E-scooters get permitted on German streets and basically now pester everyone who lives in a city. I officially demand for anyone who is called Andy and is a politician to be forbidden from the parlament.
- 2020 What even is this place.
So that was my own little list of things I vaguely remember and also partly googled.
So, if you remember all of those things taking place, than you, dearest individual, are likely in your late twenties or higher. You probably didn't want to be reminded of that, but you are welcome nontheless!
So what is this Journal actually about? Tbh, nothing really, I just wanted to get rid of the old one. I basically hadn't posted anything last or this month and I wanna say that I am sorry, but you see, life goes on and currently it goes on in very very weird ways. Right now I am waiting for the arrival of some cool stuff that I recently decided to spend my money on to keep my corona-mood corona-lifted.
Also, 3% Mehrwertsteuersenkung will for sure be the last generous thing Germany will give its citizens for a very very long time. To say it in the words of Contrapoints : "You actually lose money if you DON'T buy it. Think of the savings!"
Okay, I DO have something I am currently working on and I want to see it finished soon, just be patient a little more :>
At least I have achieved what I initially wanted with this journal entry. I hate the fact, that all of the journals now look the same, but since my core membership has had expired months ago anyway, I should not even care about it.
What have you guys been up to during this unfortunate year? I am sure that I am by far no the only one who had to go to work with almost no change in schedule?
Greetings!
