Long time no see

Hey everyone!

To those people out there who happen to check on my Deviant pulse from  time to time, long time no see! Yes, I am still alive! It's been a while since I last wrote a journal, and I think that now is a good time to just write something new, just for a change. So, here's a little update on my life at the moment:

  In my last journal I was preparing to go to the USA, that was about three years ago. Now I am already a second-year University student in the UK! I am studying International Relations with Economics, and the pressure is immense - a lot to study for, many assignments to complete, plus I need to find a job and an internship. So yes, I am studying the Art of International Politics right now, although I probably won't get to work in the field of politics. Nevertheless, power exercised internationally is a very interesting phenomenon, and I am quite conent that I get to explore it in depth.

   Now I am preparing to go to Hamburg for a Model United Nations simulation, where I hopefully will represent Thailand in ASEAN   I am really excited, as I find East Asian affairs deeply compelling and sometimes even controversial. Also I will be going to Oxford this weekend, for another MUN, this time in the role of South Korea, and next year I will probably go to Warwick   Yes, I know, after a paragraph of describing how busy I am, now follows a paragraph of how much spare time and money I have to travel around and visit MUNs   But I highly recommend attending such events, as it broadens the perspective and worldview and also enhances public speaking skills   So yeah, study, study, play League of Legends, go to MUNs, and then study again. That's how I would describe my life at the moment, or at least that's how it should be like (I do party occasionally though)

  For those of you who haven't noticed yet, I am not a real artist, or a photographer, or anything really here in Deviantart. I have made a few attempts at creating a poem, I have uploaded a few photos, and even a Valentine for my best friend. But it is all child's play, nothing serious, and if you happen to favourite any of the mediocre stuff I have produced I will be OVERJOYED! I am not in deviantart to create or share, but rather to collect amazing pieces of art in my "Favourites" folder, and to befriend interesting artists. I appreciate both traditional and digital art, and I hope that one day when I have a lot of money, I will be able to financially boost all those Deviants who have immense talents, but are struggling with money   Every single piece in my Favourites both reflects my taste in art, and also holds a special place in my heart, as each piece evokes particular images and emotions in me, and I value that symbolism and evocative power greatly   

  So, to those that would like to thank me for favouring your piece - you are welcome! I probably love your art and appreciate the beauty, uniqueness, and eloquence you produce! Keep up the good work, and send me a note if you want to chat

   That's all from me for now, please take care and don't forget to always be positive and share some love
