Despite everything, it's still you
Dear diary,
Hello there winternebs! I'm stiiiiill persisting, in a Haunter-ish fashion! Tried to re-install Flash a little while about with an external CD drive because newer computer got no CD-drive, then thing started smouldering so I kiiiiinda decided to maybe not do that. X3 Wait, what have they done to my beloved journal features, like 'Listening To' and 'Reading'? What is the streamlined tomfoolery?!
On a slightly more serious note, uh, 2020? Year of Hindsight/Rats is... A bit more relevant than I'd originally envisioned, things have been more than a bit hideous. And now there's unsurvivable storm surges heading for America, so I suppose the year's going to be pulling out all the stops as it comes to a clooooose. So, uh, any of my American dA buddies that might still be lingering here? You guys stay safe, and please relocate temporarily if you happen to live in the storm surge area. Or, wait, has it already happened? Uh, if so, reread this journal entry in the past.
Gah what is this new journal thing, I can't scroll down any lower what even in all of crudmas? And I can't use bold or italics? Where do I find my convenient comment page? Will anyone even seeee this? DeviantArrrrrrt, you have one job, and that's to never ever EVER change! Stop trying to get with the times! Sttttopppp! ... But anyway, if you read this, lemme know how you're doing! I hope all the old crowd are doing well for themselves, even if few of them are still visiting this humble old arty-place. Continuing to be horrified by/afraid of change and the prospect of ever going outside, ~ Haunter 360
The Year of Hindsight! And also rats.
Haunter 360 continues to exist! Scientists are baffled, and continue to urge the population that it's some sort of mass hallucination, but they're dumb and stuff so dontchu believe them.
Still working on making video games, slowly but surely, although I've written a couple of short stories on the side! I should probably find a place to upload them. Anyone know good places for uploading stories?
Somehow still the laziest sprite artist in the West,

*Checks pulse*
I apologise for not writing sooner, you sexy lil' journal feature you, buuuut I've been distracted with... Various pursuits. And forgetfulness. And procrastination. Probably mostly the latter. I sometimes run tabletop games now! And do Warhammers. And a number of other things. Oh, I got a new computer recently! Tammy was uh... Old. She didn't explode (Again) though, so I guess that's good!
So uh, yes, I'm not dead!
Are any of you out there also not dead?
I hope yer not dead, I think about you guys often!
Not you though
.I'm gonna be all mad at you for unspecified reasons, and if you ask I'm gonna be all 'well if you don't know what you did then obviously you're not sorry' and you're gonna be all 'well okay then I guess you don't want any of this delicious pizza' and then I'm gonna be all 'nuuuuh I want pizza this was just a joke that I ended up over-writing' and then we'll all die because the current political climate disgusts the Sun so much that it leaves and we all freeze in the cold cold vacuum of space.
Somehow still existing,

*Dusts off account*
Welp, it's been a while! How long since my last journal entry, uh... December 2014?
Right, yep, been a while. And 737 stuffs in my mailbox, wowsers.
Aaaaaanyway, I'd like to say that a huge amount of stuff has happened but uh... Yeah, no. I just had to take a hiatus, try to get some perspective and whatnot, and being the irresponsible person I be, I entirely forgot to like... Tell anyone. I think the hiatus originally started due to the desktop breaking down?
Welp, just saying, I'm alives and not actually deceased, and am trying to believe in myself and get shiz done!
I've been arting, writing, and one day I'll maybe even get paid for it!
One day...
Anywoo, didn't want to return without something to show for it, so, BOOM.

Haunter's made a freeware game of demo-ific proportions, in hopes of obtaining the inspirations needed to create and sell games! Download it! Link it to your friends! Link it to your enemies! Link it to the friends that became your enemies because you kept linking them to terrible video games! Or don't! I dunno.
Still believing in you awesome dudes,

Christmas Wishes Of Wishy Washy Wishings
Christmas is here (Or almost here, if you're on a different timescale to me) so I SHOOOULD be wrapping family gifts, but meh. Should be fun and hopefully will close off 2014, which hasn't exactly been my best year, since my attempts at real-life social interaction seem to have resulted in people secretly hating me. Or in paranoia due to my worrying trust issues.
:I
Anyway, got tagged by that crazy Karistal dude, so heeere weeeee gooooo~♪
1. What is your favorite quote/phrase?
I could write something intellectual from like, Galileo or whatever, but really I'm just thinking of Homestar Runner quotes.
3. Top 3 things you want for Christmas.
1. Something unexpected and totally awesome.
2. Money.
3. A Romanian mail order girlfriend. Hopefully this time they'll put breathing holes in the crate.
4. Tell me about your favorite OC! (Don't worry, your other OC's don't have to know you have a favorite)
Right now it's Mangogirl, because she's somehow developed into my most promising character.
Which sucks, because tymki was her original creator.
:I
5. Mario or Sonic?
Sonic for a million and one reasons.
Sonic's a mutant blue hedgehog that destroys robots by spinning like a buzzsaw.
Mario's a fat Italian plumber who can jump and eat mushrooms to get fatter. I mean bigger.
Sonic's had the guts to take chances with its storylines.
Mario's done the same thing over and over, with the exception of third party games.
Also, I preferred the Sega Megadrive.
6. Will you make me a sandwich?
I would, but it'd get stale during postage, or squished.
7. Dream Job?
Idea guy behind some franchise as successful as Gravity Falls or Adventure Time.
You'd better not fail me, Mangogirl.
8. Do you think DA's new logo is stupid as all hell? :3
What does the letter 'Z' even stand for? Zoo? Zebra? Zoombini? Seriously, dA, this makes no sense.
9. Favorite childhood TV show?
Animaniacs, if I recall correctly.
10. I want some coffee. Oh shit that's not a question. Uh, do you want some coffee?
Not really, I prefer energy drinks.
I'll tag later, if at all, because you can't tag people on Christmas - It's like, illegal in Australia.
Anyway, Merry Christmas to you all, now stop reading.
Looking forward to eating ridiculous amounts of chocolate,
~ Haunter 360
