I have disliked my old username, fleur-de-soleil, for quite a while now. I created it when I was 15, which is an incredible 6 years ago! I've been a member of deviantART for nearly one third of my life(!). Alas, I have become a lot less active than I used to be. I guess that happens to most members here after enough time. A lot has changed since I last updated this journal, which is over a year ago.

I moved to England, where I started a degree in illustration. I successfully finished my first year, and I am currently in my second year! I really like it here, it's such a creative university, and the people are amazing. It just feels really right to be here at this point in my life.

I also sort of stopped doing photo-manipulation, and started doing digital painting. I'm still trying to find my own style. I can sort of see myself in the future doing illustrations for children's books.

I guess that's all I have to say for now. I don't think a lot of my watchers will read this, since they all probably think I'm dead, haha. But I just really felt like writing something here anyways.
