HI!
Ung, I'm so mad at myself. I screwed up in the dumbest way possible and I didn't even know until recently. I'm correcting things now. Just bear with me for this next week. I'd have known this sooner if I could have gotten to the library to check messeages and emails. I am SO sorry anyone this effected.
I read notes... Guh... I'm ashamed... I'll get to respond in the next day or two but I ask for at least this next week (renovations at my new place *___*...). This is a generic auto-response and kinda impersonal BUT I will get back to you personally. "First, I'm not upset. I understand completely and if I plan to be a pro I need to be more focused and disciplined. I apologize again (this is probably the 20th time...) about the delays. I need to learn to work AROUND all of other things. I should have tried WAY harder and if you are final on your decision there's no hard feelings on my end and I appreciate that you helped me when you did
LOL, oh man, I feel like a loser just typing that. But hey, gotta own up to my mistakes and excuses.
Oh yeah, Advice to anyone, male or female looking for an apartment; don't settle for just anywhere AND don't let them pull that not enough income/you're single shit on you. WHO makes $30k a year? The people who are RENTING out the places don't even make that?! I pretty much got told because I'm female and have no man I'm at more risk of being late on rent/having domestic issues not associated with someone in a stable relationship/and I may be a liability in a building that doesn't have secure doors at all hours of the night. Because OTHER bitches are letting their drunk/high boyfriends into the building. I am apparently a statistic. YEAH. Mind you most of the property owners were MALE and had to comment on me being 'attractive and smart' and get their egos stepped on when I didn't respond to their come on's. I'm applying for an apartment, not a soulmate! So this apartment hunt was a nightmare-ish learning experience
The only new art I have is commission art >__>;;; I'm still not going to post anything until I get those emailed out and all finished. Why does anyone even watch me? LOL!
Later!









Good luck fixing... whatever you did wrong that I don't seem to have understood. 8D
One thing that you can do is to wear a suit and carry a briefcase when you go apartment hunting. They make very nice women's suits nowadays, and if you don't have one, trust me, you need one! I've had a lot better luck going in there looking very professional and business-like, whether it's apartment-hunting, job-hunting, or just a meeting with an asshole professor.
Love your work, and I am sure that everything will begin to look up for you now.
And that sounds like a decent system - not necessarily having to note everyone individually - but keeping a kind of running log in a central location of your work list - I think that would probably give a lot of commissioners sound mind to see a public to-do list to know that they are on you radar - assuming you have the time <3.
XD
But yeah, it still sucks that they treated you that way - there's no excuse for their actions - it was prejudiced and sleazy.
>.<
...and, like many have said, we watch because the waits are always well-worth it - our patience is amply rewarded with beautiful art.
