I entered grade seven in 2006. Entering junior high is tough enough, but I had also moved across Canada, so I was extra eager to settle in and make friends. Within the first few days of the second semester of school I remember meeting a kid who had told me about DeviantArt, a community art site, and "pickletoez" was typed into the library computer minutes later - the result of being fourteen years old and Lol xD rAnD0M!!1!.
It's been my online moniker since then. Across Nexopia, Livejournal, Twitter, Facebook, and so many others, it's what people have known me by. I didn't think anything of it until I started selling my artwork at comic-cons
