Hey so.. I'll start with the important stuff. and don't worry, it's good news! well, kinda.. ^-^;

Important announcement
Well you see, a new house has popped up in one of the places I've been planning on moving to, so I've been told I might get to move there! However..this came up at well..funny timing I should say... ^w^; you see, I'm about to go on another vacation abroad during the winter so I can escape from the cold, and uhh..yeah I paid already ^-^; so I'm kinda low on money right now, but I didn't realise moving was gonna be so soon so paying for the holiday was before I knew about this <:3 I need to save up for my new house along with other things for it like a new hob and oven to cook and bake with (I'm not allowed to take the one I got because it's attached to this house) aswell as carpets, flooring, wallpaper, paint, and other stuff I'll need for a nice new home

I thought I couldn't get any busier but it looks like I'm going to be extra extra busy on packing while being careful what to spend now. This christmas I unfortunately wont be putting up my decorations, or be able to afford treating myself to nice things, but I'm not being a grinch, I still love the holiday! just as long as I'm not alone or forced to spend it with my abusers ofcourse.. ^-^; But I have to do more important stuff right now. Instead of decorating I have to pack up, and instead of buying fun things for christmas I have to buy things I'll need for my new home. as much as I'd love to have the stuff I want too, the things I need are more important than the things I want. Sorry christmas, looks like I'll have to celebrate it differently this year.. ^-^; but at least my nice new house will be almost like a christmas gift to me, only it's probably like the best christmas gift I'll ever have! >w< I just need to be able to afford it all..

Please see here on several reasons why I am needing to move: https://www.deviantart.com/hazelthevixen/journal/Life-Update-Moving-out-health-plushies-outings-1247403305
So for all those kind folk out there, if you like, feel free to help out by supporting me on ko-fi :3 https://ko-fi.com/cutevixen
I also have a subscribestar if you prefer, but grownups only! https://subscribestar.adult/hazel
I am also selling adopts on my toyhouse aswell as one of my closed species on deviantart, however I'd rather if my characters went to loving homes and not for collectors. I'm also too busy to be starting taking any commissions right now as art in general takes me a very long time to do due to the amount of love and effort put into each creation. sorry about that! I'll maybe take commissions after, maybe once I'm not too busy.. ^-^;

My 26th birthday
I was also meant to tell you guys how my 26th birthday was ^-^ It was nice! My carer and I spent the day in the big city were I got to handfeed adorable wild pigeons, had a meal at Pizza Hut where we shared hawaiian pizza, it was great as always ^w^ I also got to add my very own toppings on my ice cream when I went to the ice cream machine :3 lots of fun! I have good memories going to the ice cream machine in pizza hut as a kid X3 I also remember the activity pages, especially when Ice Age 3 came out, I remember seeing that in cinemas ^w^ but this year I got to see the Gabby's Dollhouse movie! :3 I gotta say I never actually seen the show before but the movie was nice and had a lovely meaning: you're never too old to have fun and enjoy being a kid. and they're right! I'm an adult and I still love all my colourful things, playing with toys, and being a kid ^w^ and just like what Toys R Us once told us: never grow up. play on! and that, I will ^-^ I also had birthday cake and we did a birthday song yaay! wish I had someone to share my cake with tho <:3 All my friends had to go and some are online pals. It was a lovely cake but it was big and took a while to finish.. ^-^; Got there eventually tho!

I got all kinds of cool stuff for my birthday! I'd love to share photos but my phone is full >.< dang.. ah well, I can still explain UwU I got 3 flavours of umai bars! aaaa why are they so addicting! XD I think umai bars might be one of my favourite snacks now ^w^ the mascot and designs they have for each flavour is very cute too! the mascot reminds me of Doraemon X3 I also got a giant tanuki plush who's very huggable I love em X3 I have a platinum fox plush of the same kind too! so the pale tanuki and platinum fox be friends hehe >w< did you know that raccoon dogs are related to foxes? they're both part of the vulpini family! ^-^

Speaking of plushies, I also got a cute lurantis plush for my birthday :3 I also got two other cute pokemon toys that's one of the most underrated pokemons! lampent and mothim ^w^ I have vigoroth aswell. these 3 pokemons are well loved in the anime and whatnot but communitywise they are super underrated. also to tell you the truth, I actually don't like chandelure and slaking, they're kinda ugly imo. I also don't like charizard, it's overrated and too much of a showoff. No offense to those who like those 3 I'm just not that all interested in them.. ^-^; But yea, that's why I'm keeping my vigoroth and lampent as they are in the games I play :3 no evolving for them, they're staying cool! ^w^ I feel like they only person who has a vigoroth oc tbh... OvO; here's Cody as one!

I got a Gangle plush from The Amazing Digital Circus! The one where she works as a Spudsy's manager! This was the episode where I felt like I got to know Gangle more and she became my favourite character along with Ragatha ^w^ Episode 4 was surprisingly relatable as a neurodivergent person seeing as we autistic folk often have to mask aswell, so it seems Gangle and I have some things in common!

I also got a really nice gift box that has bathbombs and other neat selfcare goodies ^-^ I also got a nice fancy shower gel foam that's birthday cake scented :3 sweet! Oh and I bought some cola pez to add to my pez dispensers XD Some of the pez dispensers I have is Pikachu (the blue one), Yoshi, Tom and Jerry :3

I got a pokemon glass that came with 2 matching straws! ^-^ I treated myself to a wkd bru X3 (which is pronounced wicked brew lol sounds very witchy) it's a blue wkd with irn bru and it had a cyan and orange neon gradient :3 probably my first cocktail I've ever made as I've made many mocktails before X3 but don't worry, I'm very cautious and make sure I have limits. I prefer to be sensible since I don't wanna embarrass myself or run into danger or anything.. ^-^; It's always good to be on the safe side UwU I'll be fine as long as I'm careful :3

There may be other stuff I got too but I forgor. But I'd like to give a big thank you to all the amazing people who gifted me some amazing fanart for my special day ^w^ I really appreciate all you guys's support! I'll be sure to save and favourite everyone's awesome gifts on each site they share it on :3 If I've missed some places, please let me know and I'll get to it as soon as I can! Just like with all the other cool gifts everyone has given over the years, I will be featuring them as thanks with credit ^-^
I often share fanart on my screensaver on many of my devices, decorate my profiles on sites where it's possible (like sheezy and toyhouse), have em as a profile picture, and feature them in galleries like toyhouse, barq, characterhub, even places like deviantart! I always credit whenever possible ofcourse, so you don't gotta worry about a thing! ^w^ it's my way of showing my gratitude and appreciation so I hope that's okay with all you guys! :3 besides who wouldn't want to see what they gave being well loved? remember to practice gratitude and appreciate all the little things in life ^-^ and not just for thanksgiving either! I'm not american so I don't celebrate it XD besides it's important to be thankful all year round anyway :3

Oh and those pigeons I fed by hand, they were not only so cute, but they were also wild birbs, and even though they were just a little cautious, I'm surprised of how tame they were when I handfed them! they were sweet wee things, I need a whole army of them XD
I was also told that when I get a house, I can either have a bird or a dog but sadly not both, so I'll choose dog since life just isn't the same without a dog by my side y'know? me and Buddy were just like hero and sidekick, we were always hanging out together, playing, exploring, or just chilling, I miss him ⋌‸⋋ oh and I've always wanted a longhaired chihuahua ever since when I was a kid and have a name reserved for them ever since, so who knows, maybe if I'm lucky my new dog might be that ^-^

What I've been up to today
Today I went to the christmas funfair! ^-^ was lots of fun ^w^ I started off by going on the merry go round and then I went on the teacup ride! gosh it was alot faster than other teacup rides I've been on, it was really fun! But it was going so fast that my joy was actually starting to turn into fear because it was that fast.. OvO; I wonder if they made it quicker because I was an adult.. ^-^;; But fast rides scare me and I have basophobia QwQ whew! I was very dizzy coming off.. XwX; The guy who runs the teacups was very nice tho, he helped guide me ÚwÙ

I also had a good hotdog at the food stand that had some tasty onions and bbq sauce :3 yum! I also drank fanta with it and managed to save some for the rest of the day ^-^ I got to play in the funhouse twice! was lots of fun >w< The people there were very nice they kept my bags safe for me cos I got candyfloss :3 It was the softest candyfloss I ever tried! >w<💛 I also went on the ferris wheel like 3 times XD I love the ferris wheel! Oh and when I went on rides multiple times, I sorta went on them on different times of the day to check out all the other cool rides and even see the performances too! cos there was a concert type thing going on and I was there ^w^ There was a dj and a musician with a saxophone. the dj played cool songs and the guy with the sax really jazzed up those songs! lolpuns XD And I been here until the sunset and it was night and I got to see some amazing fireworks! it was awesome ^w^

And then I went home and got myself a hot choccy with some marshmallows, cream, and candycane, while I cuddled with my guinea pig Minty and we watched Popee The Performer together :3 Then Minty eventually tells me she needs down for the toilet so I let her go back, but it turns out I need to run to the bathroom too! Bathroom breaks are important too. good idea Minty X3 Alright, gotta get dinner and regain energy to make some preparations to move to my new house! I'll need to see if I have any cash at home so I can use it for my new house..I doubt I'll have much, but if you'd like to help me make sure I have enough so I can escape from a rough neighbourhood. If you could share my journals to friends too, I'd appreciate it lots ÚwÙ Thank you for reading this far! If you have ofcourse. which if you did, you're awesome :3 and you're even more awesome if you share this and support me financially ^w^ Anywho, stay kawaii you guys! 💖

Guys I was playing at the beach today and I saved a butterfly from drowning in the sea :o Few years ago I rescued a bumblebee who was also caught in the sea, it stayed with me until it dried off enough to fly off :3 But this little butterfly..I think it almost died just there, I managed to save it just in time but sadly I think it lost its ability to fly so I took it home with me in an empty irn bru bottle that I poked holes in and I'm gonna try and care for the little guy. It's very cute it sat with me alot when I rescued it and climbed onto my hand several times :3 I gave it some beach flowers earlier to take home but I'm gonna try and feed it aswell

Oh and this year I've grown very fond of making all kinds of mocktails, I specialise in the sweetest kinds and I get inspired quite easily so if you guys have any fun ideas for mocktails feel free to suggest them I'll be happy to try them out 💖 I also enjoy ice cream floats, especially during the lovely weather we get during the summer :3

I forgot to say that during the end of june I had a really nice time at our capital city here in Scotland :3 I been to edinburgh on vacation for a few days at a caravan and went to see some really cool things at dynamic earth, learnt about some fascinating things, seen and held some fossils, and took some fun photos with the raptors and I along with other cool prehistoric animal statues X3 One of the photos my carer and I did was the surprised soyjack meme XDDD It was really funny but I'm keeping that only for friends to see because I'm not comfortable with face reveals, not after what happened last time, I'm too pretty for my own good! But yeah I actually been to edinburgh and dynamic earth decades ago when I was just a tiny kit, so returning there was like a nostalgic trip down memory lane ^w^
I also went to my first ever pride event, it was small but nice ^-^ as some of you may already know, I am aro acehet so yeah :3 I also have my very own autism pride flag at home, I hope to put it up on my wall when I move to a bigger house :3 There was some dancing mascots who waved to me, I waved too ^-^
I also shared a go kart with my carer and we drove around town and stopped by to buy souvenirs at the shop then drove to the playpark to have fun, then drove back to return the kart. We also did other nice things like swimming at the pool, paddling in the sea, and feeding the ducks at the pond where there was cute ducklings. We also went to the arcade, my carer and I had some fun playing air hockey which is like a real life version of the pong game so alot more fun :3 We seemed to be at the same level of experience in the game so it was challenging but fun for both X3 though it seems like I still won in the end =D good game! We stayed at a caravan watching Family Guy before heading off to bed. We did sorta go all around scotland there and back since we went to the wildlife park to see some cool animals, the arctic foxes there were very curious yet adorable, I took lots of cute photos of them along with other cool animals too
On the way back home we went to the cinema to see the new Lilo And Stitch. I will admit I'm not really into disney's live action remakes, I'm especially against the new Little Mermaid as they blackwashed Ariel and blackwashing is racist, it is just as bad as whitewashing so I will not support the movie. Lilo And Stitch is fine tho, but I will say the original cartoon one will always hold a special place in my heart since I prefer that one due to that being part of my childhood UwU New one good, but old one better, the new kinda changed and removed alot of scenes and characters, the old Stitch and I actually both had something in common: we both relate to the ugly duckling, so it was kinda disappointing that the remake kinda removed that scene. still a good movie but old will always be better I would say
Unfortunately before and after the vacation I had fallen very ill.. ⋌‸⋋ Before edinburgh I had the cold, so during my vacation I was mostly better at least, but still kinda recovering. Then when I went home there was then another sickness the next day.. X.X; I threw up like 5 times and lost balance and fell over, I had to visit the doctor they said that there was a bug going around and I might of caught it when I was on holiday.. :< But I made sure to drink plenty water. Eating was hard cos I lacked appetite, but water wasn't so bad. I was also sleeping all day and night, but this week now I'm all better again so hopefully no more illnesses I really gotta fit in more beach days because summer is only here for so long and then I've got to wait a whole nother year.. D: But at least I was at the beach today, that butterfly I rescued was very lucky I came, otherwise it probably wouldn't of survived

I've just about finished my fox plushie's head and I'm about to share some very exciting progresses of this Cody plush on my Ko-Fi and SubscribeStar so if you're interested, feel free to support this small disabled artist on Ko-Fi or SubscribeStar (grownups only)

Oh and special thanks and shoutout to Wolfypoof for being our first member :3 Thanks pal you're awesome 💛

I'll be heading to see the circus tomorrow so this will be my second time going ^-^ I also hope to visit the funfair this month too once the carnival's in town :3 This is what I love about summer ^-^ more funfairs, more circuses, and ofcourse, summer having the best weather ever! making it perfect for fun days at the beach ^w^ I wish summer could stick around for longer since I prefer it over dull boring winter, I'm not able to take the cold very well so I hope I get to go to some nice hot countries during the winter to escape the cold here. British summers are always the best but winters are too much here and I really start missing all those nice hot beach days summer had.. ⋌‸⋋ So being like a swallow and migrating south for the winter actually sounds nice, I like the idea of migration, I hope I get to see lots of nice hot countries when the cold seasons start here

Hey so.. while I was paddling in the sea today, I kinda felt in an artsy mood, so I installed a neat little drawing app on my phone so I can draw while I was standing in the ocean at the same time. Wont say what kind of drawing app and what I'm drawing with it because I have some no life stalkers watching every single move of mine ( hello losers I see you =P ) and the minute they find out what I'm doing I get the feeling they could copy and plagiarise me again as usual so no I'm not going to say what I'm making for that reason. Friends can know if they want tho, I know you guys are safe :3

This Spongebob song was stuck in my head at the beach today, really enjoyed the Plankton movie and I'm looking forward to their new movie coming out at some point ^-^ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rx1yUhiKNAk I hear their new movie is coming to the cinema so would love to see it, I hope it'll be just as good as the original and Plankton movie :3

I also want to apologise for having such delayed art attacks for art fight. Like I mentioned, I was kinda unwell so I was sleeping alot, but I should be able to squeeze in an attack or two for this year's event, depending on how much time and motivation I have, since a month feels like not enough time to participate in the event QwQ I take a while on drawing in general because I put alot of love and effort into making art so that's why I'm a bit slow paced, since the time I put in art has love in every stroke of a pen, just like my fox plush of Cody right now has love in every stitch, so if alot of people really like him then maybe I might make some merch to sell so you could have your own cheerful swift fox to brighten up your day if you wanted ^w^ Anyways here https://artfight.net/~Chi my art fight incase you're participating UwU Ookii that's all I gotta say I'll be feeding my butterfly and heading to the circus tomorrowwww

I'm on other places too! ^-^

Hai! so as you know from my previous post, I was on a temporary hiatus as we travelled all the way to Scotiacon in glasgow! It's my first time going to both so it was a nice new experience for me ^w^ Sorry this post was a bit later than expected, I was very tired coming home and I had muscle pains from all that exercise. But maybe that ain't so bad cos it means I'm getting stronger :3 So by the time I posted this, I had the energy to do so. Here we are!

So! on the first day my helper/carer was with me to be my handler, and also because I am too nervous to travel alone.. ^-^; We took a train alllll the way to glasgow where I was chilling, chatting, and doing a bit of plushie making on the go. From my recent posts during the time I shared this journal, I was working on a swift fox plushie of Cody :3 It was a looong journey but fun stuff like that keeps things fun ^-^

And so, we arrive at a glasgow hotel. I never seen so many taxis! :o then again, I don't often get a chance to go to cities often so they're kinda big and exciting to me ^w^ I seen some fellow fursuiters at the hotel which was super fascinating because I never met other fursuiters before! Even though I'm a fursuiter aswell, it was fascinating to me seeing other fursuiters in person ^-^ My handler was the same way, she was use to me being a cute fluffy fox so it was also new to her seeing different kinds of furries aswell :o We checked the place out and we explored glasgow, there are lots of interesting stuff there! :D I like all the fancy neon lights in buildings, thought they were cool ^w^ There was also big black square buildings with huuuge windows! very modern and futuristic!

We went to Build A Bear and I got to experience building one for the first time :3 I never got to do it in person before because sadly there isn't any nearby anymore, so this was nice to experience! I got myself an eevee with a hawaiian shirt ^w^ I think I'll call this one Melvin because it's the eevee I have in games, so Melvin went with me when we went out for dinner-er..brunner! because my helper and I haven't eaten all day, ehh.. ^-^; It's cos we were so busy but we did have snacks, but for me it's normal, I have brunner alot. I shouldn't, because I forget to eat or I prioritise things that I think are more important than eating, but I guess I was use to that kinda thing. Anywho, for brunner we went to TGI Fridays and we got a nice big feast and I got to try some cocktails and mocktails :3 I dunno why but I've always preferred mocktails, alcohol is just way too sour for me! >.< But maybe that's a good thing, I'm scared of knowing what it's like to be drunk, I don't wanna embarrass myself or put myself in danger QwQ so probs for the best anyway. Sweet foods ftw! I also got to try corndogs for the first time and loved em X3 And I got a delicious chicken burger and chips, along with some bbq chicken wings. Yum! I had quite the feast, I was getting full so I had the bbq wings for laterr :3 It was also nice to sit next to Melvin, plushies make me happy :3 I do wish I got to see more of the Build A Bear + toy shop place, the remote control cars looked like alotta fun <:3

We went back to the hotel and Futurama was on tv! I haven't seen that show in yeears! was great to watch it again ^-^ The shower stuff and soaps also smelt lovely, I had a good long shower before I go to Scotiacon tomorrow, because everyone likes a nice smelling clean fursuiter after all UwU What's fascinating is that the tv had german ads, and I noticed they have haribo adverts like we do :3 Oddly their english theme actually sounded better than their original german one. Usually stuff in their native languages tends to be best, but I actually liked the theme with the english language best, I think cos the tune itself sounded better to me, I dunno oguifogfugfoiudgod

After a night time shower, some cartoons, and a rest, we went to Scotiacon and was very confused at first :o Unfortunately I couldn't go to the dealers den as it was a huuuuge queue all the way through the event, so we checked the times and we had fun taking pictures and playing on the inflatables at the airheads event :3 I uh..mmmay of gotten too playful and didn't realise my own strength.. QwQ I glomped one of the inflatable toys but then noticed it was deflating and when I got up there was a big hole..oops! ``/).(\ I was like sorrysorrysorry but thankfully nobody seemed mad at me or anything so uh..no hard feelings? <=D maybe they were use to that kinda thing, accidents happen.. ^-^;; I guess I learnt something about myself, usually I'm gentle 'n' all but I guess sometimes I don't know my own strength when I'm excited, so I do apologise if I play rough <:3

We then went to play Just Dance, I'm very new at the game so it was my first time playing, the only time I did play before was like "demos" at high school, but basically we were watching just dance youtube videos of gameplays and we were seeing if we can do the moves too :3 still just as fun tho! and good practice ^w^ When I was told to go up with others there was 3 dancers and I was in the middle, we did the Hatsune Miko song that was Popipo I think it was called. I don't know alot about Miku but I do like their songs :3 I wasn't sure what my results were as I was still getting use to the layout, and I was a bit rusty I think <:3 Then we did the How Do You Like That song. Love that song! I introduced one of my new and good friends to it too and even she loves it X3 But boy was that dance hard! I was just pure confusion all the way XwX but at least I wasn't the worst, not the best but not too bad either. I was alot better at I'm Blue da ba dee da ba die tho X3 that dance was fun and alot easier I think I nailed it kinda ^w^ my fursona isn't completely blue but I do have a blue mouth, peets, eyes, nose, and inner ears. and fun fact: the cyan on Hazel's ears is actually skin, not fur, so she doesn't have blue fur. Same goes with Sakura, Skye, and many of my ocs who have pink inside their ears, it's skin not fur UwU You'll know it's fur if it looks fluffy, like Cody's ears for instance.

Anyway as much as we would love to stay, we had to go get lunch so we had to leave early as we've to catch a train <:3 We got a McDonalds then made our way back, found some cool coins and some nice shops :3 Bought a sprigatito funkopop which came with a free scratch card, and then I used the coins I found to try out some cool looking nerd candy ^w^ The coins I found were two 20 pences so I was very lucky, I spent it on the nerds along with paying by card UwU On the way to glasgow and back, I was chatting, chilling, cuddling Mr Owl (my great horned owl plushie), listening to loud edm on my headphones, and sewing my Cody plush on the journey, so it has been pretty fun and a nice new experience for me ^w^

When I got home, my guinea pigs were doing fine and still had plenty food and water, they were doing zoomies as soon as I was back XD I think they're excited to see me! Cookie jumped around with her zoomies so much she crashed into Chip and he just did a very grumpy squeak XDDD As for fursuit photos and pictures in general, I should be able to share some eventually! My handler took most of the pics especially of me in fursuit, so I'll have to see when she'll email them to me :3 then I'll share with you guys too! ^w^ so I might not be able to share em straight away until they arrive, but stay tuned and I can share em eventually! I was checking out some of the pics online and recognised alot of the things there X3 though seeing as there was more fun events before and after made me wish we could stay longer QwQ I hope that one day we will be allowed to experience the conventions for more than a day cos it all sounded like alot of fun, especially since Scotiacon's theme was magical mayhem and I love fantasy, and I heard somewhere on their timetable there was like some sort of teamwork adventure game that we sadly didn't have time for. but it looked like it would be alot of fun I hope I get to try out fun games like that in the future <:3 even better if they were fantasy rpg themed <X3

So, it just goes to show! Work real hard on your dreams and one day you'll achieve them for sure! ^w^ Keep working towards them and never give up no matter what, cos who knows, maybe one day you'll get to follow all your hopes and dreams just like I'm doing! ^-^ You only live once, so you may aswell make the most of life while you still can :D So never give up on your hopes, dreams, bucket list, or life goals in general, cos there will be a day where all your dreams will come true (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧
