                <description><![CDATA[ ZOCC Character Interview #1<br /><br />Hey kids, gather around, got questions for you~<br />Haamiah: Oi, amna kid, kiddo. Get it straight.<br />Rajivo: Can I just abstain from this?<br />No.<br />Idris: Idris finds this matter very silly, but will answer in the hope that Idris's magnanimous brilliance will serve to inspire and enlighten the mundanes in the room.<br />Gamedi: If I answer these... will you let me have her? *points at Idris*<br />...no. I won't. You can have some traveling monks, though.<br />Gamedi: That'll do.<br /><br />1. Where do you hail from?<br />Haamiah: *raises mug* Snowhead, Termina, mates! Valen smithy'n clanstead in th'area.<br />Rajivo: Woodfall, Termina. It should burn.<br />Idris: Idris was conceived from the mixings of the dew and sacred wax within the great prophetess' sublime ear. Blessed Nayru then set down her progeny on the earth and Idris was clothed in the silk of the heavens. Such is Idris' origin.<br />Gamedi: The Shadowlands, of course. *bows*<br /><br />2. Which deity or spirit do you hold allegiance to and why?<br />Haamiah: Giants, mate. They'm our protectors'n saints back home. Even come when called if there's trouble.<br />Rajivo: I don't anymore.<br />Onir: Did you say something?<br />Rajivo: *growls* Fine, I hold allegiance to Naharl because <i>you marked me, you stupid shadow!</i> *grabs Onir and starts choking him*<br />Onir: Gkkk!<br />Idris: *watching the other two* Idris only holds loyalty to the divine Earmother and Idris' blessed aunts.<br />Gamedi: Her sanguine personage, Stygia the Ravager. *grins* Employment perks are excellent.<br /><br />3. What's your favorite color and why?<br />Haamiah: *strokes chin* Hrm... I suppose th'color of th'metal when it's been sittin' inna forge's heart fer a few days. Ain't a thing'll match th'warm fuzzy feelin' in m'heart tae see.<br />Idris: Ooh! Ooh! Idris adores the blues of the Earmother! The azure waves of her dress, and the indigo spans of her hair, covered in diamonds! *gleeful*<br />Rajivo: *looking ill at Idris* ...have none... Gamedi, want to cut his tongue out?<br />Gamedi: I'd love to. Then I can show everyone <i>my</i> favorite color~<br /><br />4. Who is your greatest influence or hero and why?<br />Haamiah: Them folk what made that sage sword, anna Master Sword'n alla that. Them's some fine bladework.<br />Rajivo: *points at Haamiah*<br />Idris: Idris only has the Earmother as Idris' influence, silly mortals.<br />Gamedi: *quirks brow* We have no heroes.<br /><br />5. What would you want your last meal to be?<br />Haamiah: *shrugs* Don't care long as I could have m'friends'n some ale.<br />Rajivo: What would it matter? I'd be dead soon after anyway.<br />Idris: Idris finds such matters trivial.<br />Gamedi: Chand's heart with Chianti.<br /><br />6. If this was your last day on earth, how would you spend it?<br />Haamiah: ...well, t'the hells wiv ye. Git me friends in here now. Wanna drink'n enjoy.<br />Rajivo: I'd probably spend it wondering why the hell I wasn't dying faster.<br />Idris: Idris shall not die, instead Idris shall rise as a luminous spirit to continue enlightening the masses.<br />Gamedi: *strokes chin* Definitely slaughtering innocents. I bet I could take out half of Castle Town before the priests took me out.<br /><br />7. If you could go back and change one event in your life, what would it be and why?<br />Haamiah: I'dna gone on m'trade route that year. I'd have stayed home wiv m'boy. Either he'n me man'd still be here, or I'dna.<br />Rajivo: I would have fled the city as soon that kid said something about Woodfall. This was not remotely worth it.<br />Idris: .... *peers at Winna in bewilderment*<br />Gamedi: *shrugs* Hasn't been anything yet.<br /><br />8. If it was a matter of life or death, would you kiss Ganondorf or Tingle?<br />Haamiah: *wolfwhistles* Ganny's a fine lookin' man, diabolical nature aside, y'know.<br />Rajivo: I'll take the death option, thanks.<br />Idris: *cocks head to the side*<br />Gamedi: Are we talking my life, or theirs?<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well, Yule was great - I got to burn homemade incense on the back porch and enlighten Dad that, no, we do <i>not</i> hold self-igniting charcoal brickettes in our hands while we light them. Yeah. That was great.<br /><br />Moving along to Christmas, it's been quiet and pleasantly lulzy all day. I watched A Christmas Story (finally) at 2am with Burke and then proceeded to pass out under the tree with my tailless wonder nearby. Later I discovered he's declared war on the tree skirt. Oh yeah.<br /><br />Dad got *<a class="u" href="http://moremdm.deviantart.com/">moreMDM</a> the wide angle and telephoto lens extensions she was hankering for and it was pretty sweet, so we're going to get to see some awesome stuff from her soon. Shortly after came a quite candid shot of Dad from me, and an even more candid shot of me with the lovely bottle of sake I got. (It's a Morgan Christmas - a large kitchen knife and a bottle of sake. Tchyeah.) Anywho, I only asked for two things which I got, so that was pretty epic. No, they weren't weapons and booze. Reindeer Flotilla Tron shirt, proving my brother does still care a bit, and a print of Mom's ladybug. Oh yeah. Great morning. Dad also got a new knife, so it became a 'mine's bigger' contest. Was hilarious.<br /><br />Watched Jeff Dunham with the folks and nommed more cookies, and discovered Mom's eggnog has aged beautifully. Smooth, and you ain't gonna need much to get wasted. <a href="http://ohohoplz.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/o/h/ohohoplz.png" alt=":iconohohoplz:" title="ohohoplz"/></a><br /><br />Promised Dad tickets to Avatar, so we're gonna go see that on the 1st, shall be awesome.<br /><br />Anywho, I hope everyone else has been having a great holiday no matter which one it is, and I wish for a great New Year's to all. Rather psyched as 2010 is gonna be my epic year - that's the plan, anyway. Go back and finish my degree, put together a badass portfolio and reel - or several! - and go get that job that I really want. And most of all, get myself to a better state of discipline and care, and really get on the ball with the things that matter to me.<br /><br />:3 A'ight, rambled enough. MERRY CHRISTMAS, FOLKS.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ HAHAHAHAHA THE ART CLASSES WITH THE KIDS ARE DONE! *dances* WOOOOOO!<br /><br />Ruuuuuuue! <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/shakefist.gif" width="24" height="18" alt=":shakefist:" title="CURSE YOU!" /><br />1. Fill up the blanks with your favorite characters or OCs / Put their names by the numbers, too.<br />2. Answer the questions, or try to.<br />3. TAG 3 people.<br /><br />1 - Idris (Zuna?)<br />2 - Haamiah (Terminian)<br />3 - Rajivo (Terminian)<br />4 - Gamedi (midranking Shadow)<br />5 - Eslaf (Douchebag)<br />6 - Oscuri (Zalmunna)<br />7 - Tenebran (Zalmunna)<br />8 - Stygia (Zalmunna)<br />9 - Naharl (Zalmunna)<br />10 - Dimas (Zalmunna)<br /><br /><br />1. What if 7 (Tenebran) and 4 (Gamedi) kissed?<br />o_.<br />*the sound of Winna's brain breaking*<br /><br />2. Where would 2 (Haamiah) bury a treasure?<br />Haamiah: *sitting on her anvil with a tankard and a grin* Oh ho, wouldn'tcha jez love t'ken that'n, mate. Ain't tellin', wouldna be a good idea.<br /><br />3. 6 (Oscuri) and 10 (Dimas) get into a fight. Who resorts to violence first?<br />Dimas, though it's up in the air who he'd get his ass handed by first - Oscuri herself, Abyss, Tenebran, or Vuoto. Naharl might do something, but that's dubious.<br /><br />4. 1 (Idris) is kidnapped and their kidnapper demands a ransom of 1,000 dollars from 5 (Eslaf). Do they help 1 (Idris)?<br />Eslaf: Of course! We must help our fellow Hyrulian! *snorts* Yeah. Right.<br />Idris: Idris is offended to be ransomed for such a paltry amount! Thy blasphemy shall not go unpunished! It is a sin to lay such hands on the earmother's progeny! The celestial farseer shall not stand for this!<br /><br />5. Who is stronger? 6 (Oscuri) or 8 (Stygia)?<br />...I do not know... If Oscuri's clear of mind at the moment, then I'm going to bet on her though.<br /><br />6. Who is 3's (Rajivo)Âs secret love?<br />Rajivo: <sub>That bookworm's alright...</sub><br /><br />7. Can 8 (Stygia) juggle?<br />Stygia: Of course. I've gotten as many as 23 mortal heads simultaneously.<br /><br />8. 1 (Idris) is asked on a date by their favorite actor/actress. Do they accept the date?<br />Idris: *peers in silence for several minutes* ...Idris thinks you are a very odd little person and would like to know what happened to question 9.<br /><br />10. A Meteor is about to hit the planet, can 7 (Tenebran), 2 (Haamiah), and 10 (Dimas) stop it?<br />Haamiah: *sitting back with ale, watching*<br />Dimas: *frolicking with the looters and encouraging anarchy*<br />Tenebran: |:< *breaks the meteor apart with shiny shadow hoodoo*<br /><br />11. Is 9 (Naharl) single?<br />Naharl: *amused brow quirk* Quite. Is that a problem?<br /><br />13. Does 1 (Idris) wish this TAG was over?<br />Idris: Yes, Idris has a very important meeting with the honored tree goat! Things must be done to honor the great lady of wax this holiday, and Idris and tree goat must discuss them!<br /><br />14. 8 (Stygia) and 7 (Tenebran) are dancing to the waltz. 2 (Haamiah) comes in and sees them dancing. 2 (Haamiah)'s reaction?<br />Haamiah: ...bloody shadows all bloody off'n them rockers and alla that... bloody odd as alla'm hells... *walks away*<br /><br />15. 9 (Naharl) and 5 (Eslaf) go to the movies. What movie do they see?<br />The Bourne Ultimatum. Definitely.<br /><br />16. You are attacked by 1 (Idris), 3 (Rajivo), and 9 (Naharl). Can you survive?<br />. . . no. Not if Naharl's actually helping the assault. I think I'd only have to worry about Raj otherwise... but not much.<br /><br />17. What is 4 (Gamedi)'s favorite color?<br />Gamedi: You know that dark, bloody color you get when you skin someone alive and then start curing their limbs with lemon and salt? *smirk* I like that one.<br /><br />18. Can 7 (Tenebran) sing?<br />*splorfle*<br />Tenebran: My vocal range is twice that of this Vitas.<br />I think I just died a little.<br /><br />19. A vampire bites 2 (Haamiah). 4 (Gamedi) sees this, what do they do?<br />Gamedi: *blinks* ...boring. *keeps going*<br /><br />20. All the OC's get into a battle Royale. Who will win?<br />Tenebran or Oscuri. Maybe Stygia.<br /><br />TAG!<br />Ffff. Whatever. If someone wants to, okay.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Edit: I'm journaling changes in attitude, mood, and physical well-being so I can take it to my doc on the next checkup - if those of you I interact with regularly really notice difference in my demeanor, lemme know so I can note it down. <3<br /><br />I'm hearing my music in a different key, and some other non-musical things, too. It's mildly disturbing, and I'm still trying to figure out if it's just my system, but I'm getting this impression it's not.<br /><br />I nearly dozed off on my kids towards the end of class today - both my new meds are drowsiness inducers. Woohoo. =_='<br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://oriontrail.deviantart.com/art/Bridge-in-fog-II-144548118"><img src="http://th09.deviantart.net/fs50/150/f/2009/327/0/1/Bridge_in_fog_II_by_oriontrail.jpg" width="150" height="100" /></a></span></span> looks straight out of Tron Legacy and I'm actually inspired to get back to modeling.<br /><br />I really do think there's something wrong when a medication has over ten possible side effects, even if most are fairly tame seeming.<br /><br />I realize hiding from interaction I don't want to deal with helps nothing, and not figuring I can do something in the first place would probably help. Next time I find myself about to say, 'Sure, I could probably do that for you' I think I'm going to kick myself in the butt and say, 'I'm sorry, you should find someone else.'<br /><br />Okay, seriously, this music sounds off key. Wtf.<br /><br /><br />Yeah. That should be about it.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Edit: We're thinking I really worried the woman doing my psych assessment (she asked Mom a few times, 'Someone will be home with her, right?' ) so she put an urgent on my file and I should be getting a real doc visit by the beginning of next week earliest. Good times.<br />"Do you hear voices?"<br />"Hah, wow, <i>that's</i> a loaded question..."<br /><br />------<br /><br />I'd like to apologize for further failure to get through messages, and for any dirt kicked up through the mood swings that have been popping up with some frequency of late. It's been something of a roller coaster but things should even out in the next few weeks. I hope. Anyhow.<br /><br />I suspect my demeanor within the club should improve by then too. I can't say with any certainty that my... brusque handling of rule-ignorers and chat invaders will change any, but I'm hoping for less snippy.<br /><br />Will get through the messages. Eventually.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

I'm getting my full copy of 7 Pro right now for only about $40, no more beta for me. They say the offer's good till the end of this year, so if you're strapped for cash but wanna get in on the next OS for your darlin' system, check it out!<br /><a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.microsoft.com/student/discounts/theultimatesteal-us/default.aspx">[link]</a><br /><b>Important Addendum:</b> If you upgrade from XP, you <i>will</i> need to back up the daylights out of your system. When you upgrade, you'll have to start fresh - that means reinstalling all your programs and the like, so back up your files too. There's supposedly minimal Windows preferences and settings carry-over, so again, you'll be starting over so to speak.<br /><br /><br />Kiri @ 25k pv.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So, in class on Tuesday, one of my kids made a remark about some guy she had seen with her family outside the Nickolodeon Studios who drew some freaky creatures and the like. Being me, I opened my sketchbook to the <a href="http://asraniel.deviantart.com/art/Tenebran-77401745">rendering of Tenebran I did</a> a while back, and the poor girl nearly falls off of her stool. Got several very surprised exclamations out of the other girls at the table too. It was very, very amusing.<br />_____________________________<br /><br />Dear Devin,<br /><br />You promised me and Ben that we could play out in the fields and find the fairy copse this summer. You <i>promised.</i> Mr. Sherman said he really wanted you to help us so we could have the best adventure ever and help rescue his bestest friend, too. You promised with cherries on top. Daddy says that a promise you don't keep is like a shoe you can't get dog poo off of. Do you want to wear dog poo <i>all year?</i><br /><br />Sincerely,<br />Sarah<br />___<br /><br />Sarah,<br /><br />The thought of running around in a Florida field under the blazing sun is making me blister. Get me a parasol and tell that fairy queen to give me a little more info and it's a done deal.<br /><br />-Devin<br />___<br /><br />Dear Devin,<br /><br />I have been waiting a long time to regain my humanity, see my family, and get another shot at life. Your shenanigans and dalliances with the other chronicles are not appreciated. You have already started writing the story and you've got a good start for having locked it in the cupboard for ten years. Lena wants to go home, and I want to settle down.<br /><br />Finish the bloody story by December.<br /><br />Solemnly,<br />Faretsukenenthe<br />___<br /><br />Faret,<br /><br />You weren't even involved with Aztelan until this draft, let alone conceived until five years ago. You are a newcomer to this tale and you don't get bossing rights. The fairy tale and the Luminumbra tale have dibs.<br /><br />Say hi to Goody Lian for me.<br /><br />-Devin<br />___<br /><br />Madame Ambassador,<br /><br />On behalf of my family and the entire population of Aztalen, I'd like to encourage you to commit to finishing our story this November. While some of the newcomers may not possess the same weight the older characters do, they are no less important. Without them, you would not have a complete story, nor could you gain the interest and concern of your readers. <br /><br />I urge you to consider Faret's pain, the plight of the Teyes commoners, and the struggle of the Yuuten frontiersmen to survive in a most inhospitable land. Do they not deserve their time? Would you abandon the people of Welan Aja to the coming natural catastrophe? Not only is it what you have promised us but it is your duty to your fellow man to see that these groups receive representation, that those who can be helped receive the proper aid.<br /><br />Once more, I wish to appeal to your higher ideals. Consider, if it was your family and your people, wouldn't you do something?<br /><br />Respectfully,<br />Belena Steward<br />___<br /><br />Lena,<br /><br />Don't pull that diplomatic humanitarian crap on me. I am not amused. And you decided to sleep with Egan. That was all you.<br /><br />-Devin<br />___<br /><br />Devin,<br /><br />Tell Atlantis' end. Adelani deserves to be remembered.<br /><br />Adumigal<br />___<br /><br />Dumi,<br /><br />For the record, Adelani deserves to be rembered as a warning to pride, not for greatness. Great job for ensuring the civilization fell, moron. And go apologize to Faret.<br /><br />-Devin<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Classes with the chilluns next Tuesday and Friday.<br /><br />I finished and uploaded the Farore ACEO - haven't priced yet, but I'll update again when I figure that all out. Once the other two are finished I reckon there'd be a discount for all three together but IDFK.<br /><br />Working on a portrait commission for my former roomie's mom. Might actually turn out right nice. I have to do two cats in it though. o_o'<br /><br />The Zalmunna still taunt me. I hate them right now.<br /><br />Gonna try and start doing the speedpaint-a-day thing again. May start asking for suggestions at the start of each week.<br /><br />I went back and optimized Samandiriel and Photoshop some more. Plus both my digital and physical workspaces are all around way better organized. I can actually WORK now. It's kind of flipping amazing. Sam's been a dear and I bet he'd love to upgrade to full release. Hurray Windows 7! (They have <i>got</i> to stop playing that little girl W7 commercial, though - it is KILLING what respect they were getting back with the OS. Shit, man.)<br /><br />I also finally found and understood the radial menus function on my Cintiq, so now I can finally put my keyboard aside for the most part while I work in Photoshop. Can't believe it took me that goddamn long. *eyeroll*<br /><br />Uh... IDFK, I don't remember. Oh yeah. Counting calories SUCKS.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

I have syllabuses and the like to do, ideas and plans to present Tuesday. The proposal is for me to do a group of about fifteen 2nd and 3rd graders on Tuesdays for art funtiems and then on Fridays a group of six kids for digital graphics (they have six old iMacs with some equally old Wacoms (I don't even know what model they are, it's AWESOME 8D) and Painter Classic!)<br /><br />It's nine kinds of awesome and ridiculous, all at once. And I still get to work on their site. Fffffffff. <br /><br /><div class="header2">Errata</div><br />I also applied to be an Assembler at the Toys-R-Us at Paige Field, but that doesn't promise as many lulz as the other (more hours though.) Things have certainly taken a highly amusing turn down here. <br /><br />Oh, I caved and got a Twitter that I'll probably start keeping updated (workwise) on. No random retarded posts. Just work and related. On the same note, I'm on Facebook. <a href="http://facepalmplz.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/f/a/facepalmplz.jpg" alt=":iconfacepalmplz:" title="facepalmplz"/></a> Been, just never kept up with it much.<br /><br />So yes, that's my update for a while. Catch y'all around!<br /><br /><i>p.s. - i got a real office chair and omfg it's a little slice of heaven.<br /><br /></i> ]]></description>

I'll try not to let it become a habit ^_~<br />Trying to write some crits, it takes precious brainpower. Trying to slough through my comments/replies/activities; is slightly overwhelming and anxiety-producing. Got down to 2.3k devs in my inbox, and actually tossed a few old watches that weren't updated/too saturated. Still figure I'm at least 640 folk I watch. *eyeroll*<br />Uhhhh let's see, to-do list... rough cameras for reel, marketing materials, freaking locate that picture I owe Ace (or redo it, whichever it turns out to be,) crits... uh...<br />Yeah, too early for this shit.

                <description><![CDATA[ Here's to a fresh start and a oodles better lifestyle with little caffeine, more sleep, more discipline, and 100% more awesome. Now let's just see if I deliver, muahah.<br /><br />~<a class="u" href="http://moremdm.deviantart.com/">moreMDM</a> - Mom's on dA. Photography is her new thing, mostly for her own entertainment, but I'm hoping she can get back to her art roots with it. Go give her love and the occasional kind critique. (Dude, can you believe you have to pay dA to click a 'Critique requested' button now? What the <i>hell</i>? And stfu, I haven't been <i>on</i> here in ages.)<br /><br />Passed ANP, don't know why I was freaking out about it for. God, talk about retarded behavior...<br /><br />So, I totally just had graduation ceremony earlier (Friday morning) and I got Course Director's Awards for Ethics & Psychology (knew about that) and Advanced Game Techniques (shit, Ian's info was accurate, I'm impressed.) Very entertained by the whole thing. Oh, for those that missed it... I've still got four months of school left. lolololololol. When I was shaking Steve's hand, I'm like, "See you in three months." When I shook Shawn's hand, I'm like, "Heh, see you next month."<br /><br />PCC 1 next month. Huzzah. Doing a Moroccan riad for that. SUUUUPER excited for the new class structure. I think it will really do me well.<br /><br />I had to pass up a verified job offer that was even work remote for reasons of time. Was so pissed.<br /><br />Uhhhhh I can't think of anything else except that I am swamped even for freaking break. I'll try and start responding to all my backed up messages and the like, though - part of my brand new groove and shit. Ugh.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I'll need to see a shrink as soon as I graduate.<br />Working ass off, Panel Review was a serious disaster and I broke my previous records for intervals between psychotic breakdowns. Maya 8.5 converts to 2009, not the other way around. Some bastards stole my bike and I'm in the process of getting to know my local pawn shops. If you're in Orlando and you see some nut with 'Bethesda' written all over her arms, that's probably me. I need to remind myself why I'm doing this.<br />The bike-rage helps. If I see someone on my bike, I may end up with assault charges, though.<br />See you guys in two months, I'm going back to work.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ yay, not ill now, and i'm off the meds, so that's nice. still semi narcoleptic from said meds, but it's fading. cough still hangs around, and is aggravated by twilight retardation and serious gaps in logic (thank you nina, i love you in the way that i wish i could strangle you but i would never forgive myself for it)<br /><br />as a result of illness and meds-induced crap, i'm totally behind on my CAP work, which is why i've been very quiet. i'll answer a couple urgent messages, but i need to get back into Maya like five minutes ago. no, i have no badassery to post for you. give me another week, we'll talk.<br /><br />i likely will not be around any more than i am now for... well... the next two months. in my 'free time' (yeah, like i have any) i'll be job hunting and (re)learning new software so that i'll make a prettier resume and catch to employees. virginia, maryland and north carolina are actually looking really good and they could pan out very nicely.<br /><br />i'm late getting this news, but cyan's releasing the source code for Uru which means user content and i'm going to be environmenting my ass off in more of that mythical free time because Myst was one of my superbiggest inspirations as a kid and i'm still a total geek when it comes to that. oh, and for those who don't get it: SUPER FUCKING AWESOME YEAH! my imagination orgasmed reading the article. you don't know how many Ages are sitting in my head waiting for this kind of opportunity. <br /><br />i also have a super badass sideproject that will doubtlessly kill my laptop so even if i had the time, i wouldn't be able to work on it until we get a new desktop built which can handle the insane polycounts and rendering calculations it will take to see the environment rendered. (it's a very large, complex environment and it's cool. hopefully, it will also break brains.)<br /><br />so yeah i need to get back to work. kisses.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So, I failed ANP due to failure to turn in on time (missed it by two minutes) and I'm back in the class this month. So like, they're letting me keep Edison's office (I have to do a miniature of it, don't worry, photos will be posted.) On the other hand, I have to pick two new assets. Officially, I'm modeling three environments. Unofficially I'm also texturing at least one, intent to texture all.<br />So, drum roll please for my new totally kickin' assets.<br /><br />First up, the Zincirli han from Istanbul's Grand Bazaar. Once a hostel of sorts for traveling caravans whilst they were in town for the bazaar, it's now home to like one of the nicest carpet shops in the bazaar. Or something. I forget, it really just looks darn spiffy.  <a href="http://k53.pbase.com/g4/03/683403/2/64235240.CxpU3KFa.jpg">[link]</a><br /><br />Next, near and dear to my twisty little heart, are the Art Nouveau stylings of le Villa Majorelle in Nancy, France.

                <description><![CDATA[ Well. New Year is goin' pretty damn good.<br /><br />Holidays:<br />I got a new bike and gear for Christmas/my birthday. It's gorgeous, flies, and I can lift it with one hand, and I'm a freaking weakling. Also, I can now go to the liquor store to procure the the final ingredients to Mom's Guilt Free Supa Chocolate Pie.<br />Seriously. I don't care, I just want the baking opportunities.<br /><br />3D Work:<br />I am modeling this side of a Tampa alley for ANP, and I'm modeling and texturing the inside of Thomas Edison's laboratory office at his winter estate in Fort Myers. That's pretty darn cool.<br />Jigo and Don want to do a live action Mortal Kombat spoof. Guess who's compositing. *wave*<br /><br />New Years Resolutions:<br />My New Years resolutions aren't so hard to hold up. For my 'speedpaint a day' resolution, I have plenty of folk to harass me if I don't get it done. Easy. For my health resolutions, they're tasty, easy, and only making life easier (and cheaper!) for me. Weird but cool. For my 'be nice to people,' it's getting a little easier to let things go even though I still don't like the general populace and I think stupidity is rampant as per herd mentality. I'm trying to be better and complain less. We'll see how bad it is in another month. And should I forget any of my resolutions... they're on my desktop wallpaper. Very plain and easy to see.<br /><br />Inbox and Messages:<br />Sorry for any recent inbox floodin', folks. I'm trying to answer and reply to all the messages and the like in my inbox. And sorry about spontaneous image upload fests. Had some old stuff what needed to be posted. Also, for those whom I watch who watch back - those of us who have some form of banter, my apologies: I hate lame, repetitive commenting on my part, and I can't stand posting one liners and the like generally. If I have something to say about it, oh, I'll say it, but I don't do comments on demand well. Your work is highly appreciated, but... sometimes I can't say so satisfactorily. My love to you guys and your art. <br /><br />News from the Realms:<br />Since this is the internet and everything's bullshit on the internet, I've convinced my COs that being quite honest with you guys about where I'm gallivanting off to for my arts and chronicles is not, in fact, a security or ethics breach. So. Potentially entertaining anecdotes to come.<br /><br />AIM:<br />Suffice to say, me, Petty, Mel, Rue, and Kanon were having a group chat on the 30th and some unprofessional little wanker comes in. (word/word indicates line breaks, though I suspect most folk who'll read this already know that.)<br />mz_spongebob33@mac.com: who is all these people<br /><br />mz_spongebob33@mac.com: nigga this my chat<br /><br />mz_spongebob33@mac.com: yeah yall bich as niggas better leave<br />Kanon: Or what?<br />mz_spongebob33@mac.com: bitch<br /><br />Me: At least our stupid language [proper English] is easily understandable by the masses.<br />mz_spongebob33@mac.com: the masses what masses/yall Catholic<br /><br />[It's just me and Kanon in the chat with spongebob at this point]<br />Me: Really, I fail to see the logic in any of this.<br />mz_spongebob33@mac.com: oh ok i get ur point<br />Me: Admittedly, it's entertaining... but ultimately pointless.<br />mz_spongebob33@mac.com: but/I'm gone end this/with a/Fuck you and have a nice day<br />Kanon: Nice<br />Me: You too darling! *wave*<br />Kanon: Bye!<br />mz_spongebob33@mac.comÂ left the room. (11:32)<br />Kanon left the room. (11:32)<br />[I'm still here, making my bridge-troll forebears proud]<br />mz_spongebob33@mac.comÂ entered the room. (11:32)<br />mz_spongebob33@mac.com: SCREW U BITCH<br />mz_spongebob33@mac.comÂ left the room. (11:32)<br />Me: Meh heh<br /><br />Suffice to say, we claimed the chat, and despite a return with allies, her allies failed her, we brought in our own, and the chat was ours. They never came back, not even in the wee hours of the morning. Bwahahahahaha. By the way, never name your chatroom something simple, like 'boing.'<br /><br />I suspect that's about all for now... <3<br /><br /><b>Oh yeah. I think I wanna get rid of my blank meme. It's by far the most popular thing in my gallery and I hate that. What do you guys think?<br /><br /></b> ]]></description>

Suffice to say, unless you want mixups never name your group chat something simple and mundane, like 'boing'.<br /><br />On the other hand, out trolling the ghetto punk trolls is freaking hilarious. We were <i>so</i> victorious by the way.<br /><br />Will post the highlights later. It's freaking brilliant.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Sort of. Kind of. Not really.<br /><br />Art test is done. I only have two pressing art projects. I am doing nothing remotely useful this evening and I fully intend to do the same tomorrow evening. Hatcha.<br /><br />On the other hand, two pressing art projects, plans to volunteer while I'm at home, lots of photos around town to take for Finals Department next month, apartment to clean, oh, and presents to take care of, and oodles of textures to do for a group project for the current CG Society challenge which is a delightfully steampunk affair. I'm fairly sure there's tons of other things I have to take care of, too, but right now, I don't care. :3 <br /><br />To those who care and read, sorry I've not been around per se. I intend to try and catch up on everything in my inbox, so catch you folk soon. Mayhap there'll be some pretty things to go into the gallery before month's end, too. Also come January. <3 See you folk around.<br /><br /><b>Also. Kanon, you scoundrel. You are unbelievable.</b><br /><br /> ]]></description>

AND A SHOWER AWAITING. AND FOOD IN THE KITCHEN. FUCKING AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!<br /><br />#Edit: You have no idea how <i>giddy</i> I am at the thought of the 5-9pm shift today. Why? I get to go home, take a <i>loooong</i> hot shower, and get some clean clothes. Ooh, and brush my hair- eeeeeee! And I hear there will be homecooked food stuffs there, too. With people.<br />Okay, so I'm not 100% wild about the people at the moment seeing as how I'm nearing the 24hr mark and getting mood swingy/pissy. Just bad for interpersonal communications. Anywho.<br /><i>Showwaaaah HO-OHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!</i><br /><br />So, while my next series of passes render out, I will take the time to address my inbox... =_=;<br /><br />Thanks to the folk what said something, y'all really didn't have to. Things are slowly getting back on track but I know I need outside help, so I'm trying to get that right now. Now if only the clinic would answer the phone... *eyeroll*<br /><br />Render time also gives me time to work on other things, though generally that's delegated to sleep or 'calm the fuck down.' I have been here at school since about five o'clock yesterday. I kicked everyone out of lab at nine this morning, took a six hour nap since my roommate opened the lab at one. I fanarted Alchera for Rue as a way to mark the machines I was rendering on and as a stress relief. God it felt good to paint. I'm really looking forward to Mythconduct this coming month too - I got a <i>very, very, very</i> fun project. Of course looking at the reference again, I'm torn between cute hilarity or extreme awesomeness.<br /><br />Next month <i>should</i> be relaxed. I'll be sitting in on ACG to do my art test, which means lots of modeling focus and lots of arting. Complete the Zalmunna, get the exchange piece done, get those ACEOs done, get psychotic shrimp assassin Zerr done...<br /><br />So, barring more mental breakdowns, epic moodswings and going batshit on folk, I think it should work out.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ <div class="header1">I'm chill</div><br />I missed Blizzard, sure, and it still sucks (though it's funnier now) but it looks like I may be catching the chattage with Michael Mumbauer and Melissa Banks of Sony Computer Entertainment America. To be brutally honest... I don't know much about SCEA, which means research when I can squeeze it in before next Wednesday. By God I am going to have INTELLIGENT questions for them.<br /><br />Now, during some early said research... I found out something delightful. They're slated to release <i>Mirror's Edge</i> for PC in January! FSCK YEAH! *boogies a little bit* Here, groove out. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TERyxFfMqDk">[link]</a><br /><br />Progress Energy got approved for a roughly 25% rate hike, partly to fund construction of a new nuclear plant, and partly to offset fuel surcharges. Awesome! Fuckers. Keep the nuclear out, man.<br /><br />As for other things... hmm... Dunno. Oh. The new Media Design Master of Fine Arts Degree they're going to be offering at school? Hahahahahahaha! Dude. No. Totally not an actual Fine Arts degree. God, I swear, as much as I love this school, they really make me face-palm an awful lot. I mean, an <i>awful</i> lot. Anywho. I'mma go try to get this blasted tracking done for CSF. 8D It's so boring! Yay!~<br /><br />Oh, yeah. Basically all the sucky shite has piled up so much and things have been so COMPLETELY SEESAW that I've about given up and have gone the LAWL route again. So, basically, while things aren't cool per se... I can deal. I can totally deal.<br /><br /><div class="header1">folks and clubs</div><br /><a href="http://lock-of-hyrule.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/l/o/lock-of-hyrule.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconlock-of-hyrule:" title="lock-of-hyrule"/></a><a href="http://puertorriquna.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/p/u/puertorriquna.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconpuertorriquna:" title="puertorriquna"/></a><a href="http://pettyartist.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/p/e/pettyartist.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconpettyartist:" title="pettyartist"/></a><a href="http://elanorepenn.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/e/l/elanorepenn.png" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconelanorepenn:" title="elanorepenn"/></a><a href="http://zoaerven.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/z/o/zoaerven.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconzoaerven:" title="zoaerven"/></a><a href="http://lypiflower.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/l/y/lypiflower.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconlypiflower:" title="lypiflower"/></a><a href="http://dark-sklusian.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/d/a/dark-sklusian.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":icondark-sklusian:" title="dark-sklusian"/></a><a href="http://lanisaz.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/l/a/lanisaz.png?1" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconlanisaz:" title="lanisaz"/></a><a href="http://ubukid.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/u/b/ubukid.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconubukid:" title="ubukid"/></a><a href="http://konsumbrot.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/k/o/konsumbrot.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconkonsumbrot:" title="konsumbrot"/></a><a href="http://kiesu.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/k/i/kiesu.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconkiesu:" title="kiesu"/></a><a href="http://carlota.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/c/a/carlota.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconcarlota:" title="carlota"/></a><a href="http://madlucied.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/m/a/madlucied.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconmadlucied:" title="madlucied"/></a>~<a class="u" href="http://demon-raiku.deviantart.com/">demon-raiku</a><a href="http://keaton-chan1.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/k/e/keaton-chan1.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconkeaton-chan1:" title="keaton-chan1"/></a><a href="http://capori.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/c/a/capori.png" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconcapori:" title="capori"/></a><a href="http://cows-go-oink.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/c/o/cows-go-oink.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconcows-go-oink:" title="cows-go-oink"/></a><a href="http://fireeyes-dragon.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/f/i/fireeyes-dragon.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconfireeyes-dragon:" title="fireeyes-dragon"/></a><a href="http://josephacheng.deviantart.com/"><img class="... ]]></description>
