Entries (m/d/y)

The other day, I was on UtaForum, and I saw a post about a contest for one of my favorite UTAUs at the moment, Meaty-chan. You make fanart or music of her, and whoever has the best entry in whatever catagory wins. Immediately, I was pretty excited about it, and was already committing to the idea of making something for it. But then I remembered that I wouldn't be able to receive physical merch, so I couldn't very well join. If there's even a possibility that I'd win anything, I'd just be wasting everyone's time and taking away from someone who could actually get a prize.

To me, these things aren't so much about the prize as they are about making art in a community with other people. I mean, technically, I would have an easier time participating if there was no prize at all. It just feels like a big, fun event, you know? It's nice to have something to be a part of. So I think I'll make an entry anyway, but not submit it, maybe just post it on here and have that be it. If everyone else gets to have fun and make Meaty-chan art, why shouldn't I??? That's what I think, anyway.

Okay, my blog is up! This website is looking more and more like... a website! It's still far from finished, but I have to enjoy these small victories or I'll never get anything done lol.

But I'm having trouble figuring out how to organize everything... Like, I have sections for lots of different types of media, but what exactly should I put there? Media logs? But isn't that what blogs are for? I know I'm probably supposed to write about my real life here, but I don't really have all that much going on. I really should have thought this through a bit more, I'm kind of just plowing ahead right now.

... Though I did just write a paragraph about nothing, so I'm sure I could figure something out.

Anyway, back to the grindstone with me!
