Beneath my skin in the the heart of my soul the blazing passion to create smolders. I have an idea that I really like, that I get giddy about and I have a ton of ideas for. This is something I would be happy to work with.

 But I just can't start. Every time the thought of starting enters my mind all that enthusiasm dies and I'm stopped dead in my tracks. I suppose this is similar to a writers block in the sense that I'm hitting a wall in my head here, but it's transparent and I can see the riches that lie ahead. And yet no matter how much I struggle I'm stuck here on this side of the wall.
You just keep going man!  I was struck with an idea for an avatar and I drew it (with the assistance of a line tool for extra smoothness) and I managed to finish it, huzzah!

The passion, the passion.

Creativity is a skill Duke! You have to WORK THOSE MIND-MUSCLES! If you're anything like me, your consternation is caused by having expectations of yourself which are wholly too high. I recommend starting small projects that can be finished more easily to begin with, and then work your way up to your Magnum Opus.

I nearly got hit once too. Funnily enough, the guy was picked up by the fuzz a few blocks later.
I was running to the bus stop and I saw the bus stopping, so I decided to pick up the pace when the damn street light went red. Some lady nearly hit me *and* I missed the bus.

I've almost gotten hit by a car before, it was not pretty.
What happened?

Hey, a similar thing once happened to me, except I was hit by a car, and did make the bus.

But then, life was also easier when I was running around here pretending to be a man, so I guess I should just "man up" and get back to work.

I was nearly hit by a car today, damn street lights.

I've been hit by two. If you get the chance to experience it, go ahead and skip it.

Hehe, the guy was driving DUI, kinda odd seeing as it was pretty early in the morn, and he nearly hit a lamp post and swerved right in front of a cop's car.

The car crashed into the bush in front of our house.

I hope you were recompensed by the inconsiderate man?

Like my avatar for example. It's not exactly what you would call pretty, but it is *something*, and if you make enough crappy newb things you can eventually get something a little bit better. What's that thing they talk about on TvTropes, 90% of all media is complete shit?

I dunno, you guys have survived Thomas the tank engine, golems, zombies, nuclear explosions, laser whales, and being on the same team as ragnarock.  I don't think something as tame as a world ending rain of lava will even slow you guys down.

I don't think the avatar I made is complete shit but it's not perfect.

Must be 89.9%.
