Today I learned about the musical Into The Woods....

Haha theres so many interpretations for my username....

My username 'elliwoods' is just a play on the name Elwood, yknow like the blues brother! 'intotheelliwoods' I will admit.... I forget most of its origin but I think I was slightly inspired from the streamer inthelittlewood even though I dont even watch him pfft-

Ah, dear Elita it’s been so long!!! 😭

How are you doing? Quite the long break, huh? It’s SO nice to see you back on this silly website for us silly mutuals lol

I’ve missed your art dearly. I know sometime around you’ll have the chance, no rush!

It’s a pleasure to see you back on track once again ☺️❤️💚

Hello!! 😁🫂 It sure was haha, though I feel like it's only been a week or two. 👀 Those last few months went by so fast! It's wonderful to see you again too! ^-^ 💞

Aww I really appreciate that. 🥲 And I'm doing really well, thanks!! I've been painting a lot over the summer and was able to complete some projects I had left aside previously. The change of pace has been great for me so far. 🥰 Oh but certainly! When things get less busy for me again, I'll be looking forward to sharing samples of all and any subject I'm currently interested in. ;) ✨

Thanks again for the warm greeting. I hope you're doing well too! 💗

Progress Update;

JAN 2024 - FEB 2024;

Hello all!

University has finally gotten back into full swing, i reckon the routine is helping me out a lot, but it means this hasn't been the most productive in terms of writing (more planning based). I'm pretty busy this month, i've realised, so i will be aiming to get chapter 1 out around the beginning to middle of March.

I did a bit of reworking, to fix the pacing (and keep myself sane) so i apologise if it isn't what you expected when it does come out.

now, without further ado, the checklist :)

DONE;

reworked the plans to fix the pacing a little bit (subject to further change)

added some more customisation that wasn't previously there

polished off the previously finished scenes, so they aren't just word vomit anymore

TO DO;

still have to do the meet the ROs scene

toying with the idea of replacing the first skill check with an option to snoop for information instead (be it through interaction or exploring); this would move the skill check to the beginning of chapter 2

a while ago on the discord i brought up the "which desk at the station is forrest's desk" question when the answer should probably have been obvious. he's been at the job for approx. one week, so it's the desk with all the unpacked boxes. it just didnt occur to me because thats Frankly A Lot Of Boxes and my first thought was this is where all the storage and junk are piled on, but no. it's all stuff forrest brought (/hc). he's a heavy packer. he spite packed all the stuff he didn't want his old job to keep even if he doesnt need or even like them all that much but now that he's blacklisted then no one in the entirety of chicago can have them

Lmfao my mom was getting on me abt not having enough to do this upcoming semester so I decided ah okay I'll add another class. And that's perfectly fine. But the one I picked results in the majority of my schedule being generally unaffected and still lax, but my Thursday being absolutely fucked.

For reference, on every other day I'd spend like less than four hours in class/commuting(anywhere from zero hours to almost four), but Thursday, its almost 9 hours combined 😭 which is like fine with me, but I think ill despise thursdays after this, AND MY BIRTHDAY IS ON A THURSDAY :(

Class I had in my schedule for next semester (which starts in a month btw) got cancelled and they only told everyone about it like an hour ago and while I did manage to find something else and get everything sorted my heart is still pounding over the ordeal

[ballsballsbowls]

It occurred to me that I THINK the 17th is the one-year anniversary of leaving the worst job I have ever worked for what is easily the best job I have ever worked.

I hope the past year has brought you immeasurable physical and psychological pain, guys. It’s what you deserve <3

I love the fact that I can work as hard as I can manage with a broken tooth and a dying tooth (one on each side, I've been chewing on the cavity for a year) and I still cannot save even $10 towards getting dental treatment (2 impacted wisdom teeth, + tooth broken off under the gum, + bad cavity) because I barely make enough to cover my food and board and the insane energy bill

[penrose-quinn]

Oh my god I'm almost done. Just one more scene and I'm free \(T⌓T)/

I’m on the columbo episode that takes place at the military academy, and it’s very satisfying to see them unleash a funky little adhd man onto a rigorous macho (abusive) type of institution

not predicting he’s about to change the whole world, but sometimes all you need is to experience some mild chaos

[lume-nosity]

LULULU WHAT IS UR BEST SUBJECT IN SCH

okay i know i have to list one but i have multiple so my best subject(s) in school would be:

forensics

civics

literature / creative writing

english

computer science (?)

piano (i took only one year and dropped out afterwards because the teacher saw me as a music prodigy and i can’t handle that amount of attention/pressure)

i’m such a nerd it hurts

[superhousecat-once-again]

I saw Newsies live again after too too long and man every single time it’s like I’m thirteen again, just pure excitement and joy being poured into my system
