Dear Pookie,

Time to make like nature and sleep off the next few months. This has been a long year and even now, I still have a few classes left. I'll just sum up the semester and say it's been.... a real eye opener if ye will. I don't regret one bit of it though, because I met a lot of great, interesting people and have seen some new things while picking up a skill or two along the way.

So you may be wondering "What is Torta up to now that she's got time on her hands???" (But more than likely not, let's just use our imaginations here!)

I still have the unfinished Aerith Guard Stick. It kinda sorta wee bit *makes indication of small with fingers* got damaged on one end, so I have to figure out how to fix it. When it happened, it was a slow motion

and then I wept on the floor like a peckish baby watching Chucky after an hour.

In addition, I am also attempting to make a trial sword out of foam core so I can get an idea of what to do to actually recreate ones you see in games and comics. This is of a fairly original design so, again, it is not a recreation yet.

I am still going to start up drawing comics again, it's just it will take a while to get back on track. My resources will also become scattered for a bit so that will come ito play as well. I won't be idle with it. Just give me some time.

The alternative plan for the break is that I will sleep as if I haven't rested in years. If necessary, I will fill my guts with berries and nuts (and CHOCOLATE!!!!), wrap myself in blankets and sleep off the month or two, because this opportunity may not come again until summer. Again, this is only if all the above fails.

In any case, do have a great winter break and a great new year. Merry Christmas to all who celebrate it, and those who celebrate other holidays, enjoy those as well. Here's a biscuit-that-looks-more-like-a-cookie to kick off the festivities!
