Today I started playing Sonic Adventure DX again, and I can confirm that Dreamy the Chao is currently a Hero Swim Chao. It will become a Hero Chaos Chao before long!

I'm enjoying modeling Charaboms in Pokemon Quest style! Dorako was kind of annoying because it took me forever to finish, but TwinDragon wasn't so bad since I could edit Dorako's body shapes instead of making them from scratch.

I've started sewing my plush Hero Chaos Chao! Yesterday I attached the eyes and sewed the halo. Today I'll start working on the head.

I hope you'll show pictures of your plush when you're done with it! :)

Happy Feast of the Epiphany! :glowingstar: Are you celebrating with your family today? :)
We haven't done much of anything special, but we did get our little Epiphany gifts! ^_^ Each of us got some candy and a pen. I got a box of chocolate-covered cherries! :yum::candybar::cherries:

For years I've wanted to try making 3D models and animations, but not being able to get the proper software has prevented me from doing much of that. I hope I can try both of them more someday.
Wow, I was just looking at the first two pages of this thread and I realized...it's crazy how I made this post about wanting to try 3D modeling, and then I found out about Blender less than two weeks later! Now, four months later, I have some experience with modeling. I'm grateful a friend told me about Blender!

Chocolate-covered cherries sound delicious! My sisters and I are going to exchange the handmade presents we made for each other since we didn't finish them in time for Christmas...:ahem:

That sounds fun! I bet you're all going to enjoy your awesome gifts! ^-^:gift:

You're not alone in not finishing things in time for Christmas. My mom and I never got around to making our second batch of cookies, and we made our chocolate-covered pretzels just a few days ago. Sometimes things work out like that...but I'm sure you did a great job on the handmade gifts! :)

I should make a new drawing to use for my avatars sometime. I wanted to use the picture in my signature, but Kirby and Taranza got cut off. o_O That drawing is about a year old now anyway. I like the ones I'm using currently, but I've been using them for months.

I did most of the undecorating yesterday. That was tiring! Today I just had to take care of the Christmas tree.

I have a possible idea for a new story. I would say more than that, but it would contain a spoiler for Kirby and the Rod of Darkness.

I had the chance to play through Kirby: Planet Robobot for the first time over the past couple of days. It's fun! The Robobot armor is pretty cool, and it even transforms into a jet and a car! :airplane: Some of the stages are interesting too - there are a few casinos, an ice cream factory, and cities with Waddle Dees driving cars! ^_^:car: Some of the text in the game is different from what I read online in the past, though, which is weird. :mmh:

...I made it to the final boss, but then I got beat! Now I have to start all over!
:argh:

Maybe you could draw a new picture for your avatar sometime!

Cool, a new story! That's exciting! That's going to get me to finish reading Kirby and the Rod of Darkness soon!:blush:

There was some kind of issue with my brother's TV for at least six months, which made it hard to watch channels and caused the SNES to have no picture. It finally updated and resolved the issue, so we can play the SNES again! But the N64 must be broken, because it's still not working. :cry: We'll have to either get it repaired or replace it...

The odd thing about our SNES is that it has an issue with two games: Kirby's Avalanche and Tetris Attack. When I play either of those games, the playing field is off center which makes them difficult to play. It wasn't always like that, as Kirby's Avalanche used to work fine. All the other games work normally.

Sometimes I wonder if there is anything out there that will help my anxiety. :disrelieved: I've already tried more medications than I can remember, relaxation techniques, and natural remedies, but nothing has helped much. It's discouraging. I just wish there was something I could do to ease my physical symptoms because I am so tired of feeling bad all the time, it's hard to live my life this way, and I'm constantly scared that this anxiety will harm me or worse.

My dad always tells me to think positive, but then he's always talking about the worst case scenarios. Why should I think positive? It's never done me any good.

I don't understand why things that are supposed to help anxiety, that worked for other people, don't work for me. Why did I have to be so unlucky and get really bad GAD that is really hard to treat? I want more than anything to be able to relax again, but I never can. I often forget what it's like to feel calm.

...It's just so hard not to get discouraged because every time I think I've finally found the answer, it ends up not helping, plus I always have to wait weeks or months to get to it in the first place. I don't want to live the rest of my life like this!

My brother bought some new memory cards one time and there were actually a few Chao on one of them. But all of the Chao were weak and nameless and disliked at least one character, which means that character mistreated them. Whoever previously owned the memory card abused and abandoned their Chao! Poor things! :sob:

I'm so sorry to hear you are going through hard times again... :( Do you think that your anxiety settled in again after you took down your Christmas decorations? People can get depressed after Christmas is over.

Have you ever kept a thought journal? It means writing down when you are feeling anxious/depressed and writing down the circumstances, feelings, etc. that you think are triggering the anxiety. That way, you can figure out how to avoid the triggers and replace thoughts and actions for more constructive ones.

When I was dealing with major anxiety a while back, I read some helpful articles online on how to combat it. You can read them in the links below, if you are interested.

I can remember, relaxation techniques, and natural remedies
Natural testing ? (non-official)

CALM powder ? by natural vitality - a best seller world wide, or usa anyway.

B-100's ? relieves most kinds of , well, troubles similar. Doctors use, but can't talk about.

If you're interested, there is a book I'd like to recommend to you for your anxiety. It is called 'He and I', a series of dialogue between a French woman called Gabrielle Bossis and Jesus, who spoke to her in her heart. I've heard that it has helped people with anxiety, fears, etc due to the book's message of God's extreme love and mercy. It has always been one of my favorite spiritual books. If you'd like, you can read it here:

https://www.scribd.com/document/422999755/HE-and-I-Gabrielle-Bossis-Complete

Hope it helps!:)

Thank you for the prayers and suggestions. I will check out these articles. :hug:

Right now I'm discouraged because I finally got that test I was talking about a little while ago, but now I feel doubtful that it will help me. :disrelieved: I haven't thought about keeping a thought journal...sometimes my symptoms are better and sometimes they're worse, but they never go away completely. A lot of times, it seems to get better or worse for no real reason. That makes it hard to figure out all the triggers.
