My last entry was April '07 and WOW I dunno what really happened. For the last two years, it's pretty much been school, work, more school, more work, and moving. I finished up my schooling at NIU and left Chicago for the 100+ degree weather of the San Francisco area to attend Berkeley. And no, my pasty ass college student skin is not faring well, hahahaha. AND NO I haven't been to the damn beach. Beaches are for people that won't spontaneously combust when they step foot outside the apartment.

I'm gonna be uploading some of the art I've worked on the last two years, but... yeah it's pretty sparse, haha. I finally got a new camera so I'm thinking of starting a photography account, but WHO KNOWS. I'm still very lazy and still... very lazy.

And if any of you crazy kids that still remember me play World of Warcraft... you should message me, because I finally broke down and bought it >____> I also linked my Facebook further down in my info if anyone wants to stalk me there too because fuck Myspace. With something hard and sandpapery.

Uhhh yeah. Hi. 8D

I will seriously try to post more; school took over my life for the last couple months, and yeah... check minus. Life will hopefully become less hectic over the next few months, since I have summer coming up, hurray.

[lives]

[and there was much rejoicing]

Yeah, I definitely sorta died since... July. Oops. I just wasn't in the mood to draw and then school sprang up and yeah.. motivation goes out the window when you're pulling 12 hour days 3 days a week. Also, sanity goes that way too. Ho shit.

Yeah, I've done a whole lotta nothing for the past...3 months. I honestly don't have any accomplishments to throw out at people, except that I'm not failing any of my classes. I think. Yeah, I have no idea and I really don't care.. I just wanna get the hell outta Illinois at some point. Preferrably soon. Like. Today. Soon. Fsck.

This really isn't much of an update either... I'll be surprised if all of 3 people even read this, and I know only one person will comment. Maybe two, if Aki gets her ass back on DA. Not that I blame her for leaving; DA kinda sucks and really pisses me off, so I just kinda gave up on it, and I still do. Except that I'm a whore when it comes to my art and like to show it off.

It still bothers me when people fav my crap and don't leave a comment though. God forbid you type why you like it to before you click the button; wouldn't want to strain yourself, would you?

Again, not that the people that fave my shit even read my journals. Ahhh, I love how DA attracts everyone that loves the shiny but can't read for jack shit. Maybe that's why I gave up, too; the only person I really keep in contact with on here is Chris, and half the time, he just emails me and then DA serves no purpose.

And yet I came back. God, I suck.

I'll try and comment on everything soon. I'm at school right now and I'm really not in the mood to type happy things I don't feel. So... tomorrow. Maybe.

Yay 2 hours until class. I hate this school.

Yeah, Starved Rock is boring and I don't think we'll be going back... there's really nothing there in the way of towns [wasn't even a grocery store, wtf >.<;;] and there's nothing there to, you know... keep you occupied for five days. D: We did everything there was to do.... in 1. [how exciting!]

I start classes again on the 23rd and have them 3 days a week, so at least I get 2 days off instead of 1 like last semester... so nice. Though everyone else starts classes the week after mine... totally uncool. >.> I still have to figure out if my bio class is still on though... last time I checked, me and my friend were the only ones in it, eh heh. x.X;;;

I'm not sure when I'll start submitting stuff again... I'm lacking the ideas department lately. Summer has made me lazier than I usually am [which is shocking cause I didn't think that was possible] and I like sitting around not having to do anything. xD;; ]]> ~Dragonrain http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/9607354/ http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/9607354/ Sat, 05 Aug 2006 11:42:30 PDT
From Monday to Friday, I'm gonna be downstate at Starved Rock and won't have access to the internet. Which means... major deprivation, omg. D: I might work on some stuff while I'm down there and if I have any good pictures I'll post them... though I think all I'm gonna find are a lotta dead leaves and rocks. .___.;;; Though... I have this theory that I'm either gonna find a dead body or a shark. These things always happen when you go camping.

So yes! I'll be gone for a week, so sad.

Life:

Well damn... I totally should've put up a journal like... Sunday night.

Acen was friggin hot. I was so surprised at how many awesome cosplays I saw this year... last year definitely sucked in comparison to this one. <3 It probably had something to do with all the new Square Enix games/movies that came out this year, but damn, those otaku had some awesome costumes.

Unfortunately... I was far too busy somewhere else to take pictures. <3 ~MewMyuu got a bunch of awesome pictures, but her Photobucket account is closed to the public and we have no idea how to open that one folder for public viewing... soooo... yeah. D:

Oops. xD

I was surprised at all the DA artists that were in Artist's Alley tho! And omg I met Goldenwolf~~~~ and she was so awesome~~~~ and her art was so pretty~~~~ but I was so broke~~~~~ xDDD;; I heard Messa was there and I saw Saucy Wench (with Aki spazzing in the background) and Chris said there was someone else there... but... iono who, cause I dont watch a lotta populars. xD;;;

They had some cool toys there, but I didn't buy anything... again. xD Nothing really jumped out at me... and the only thing I might've wanted was 80 frickin bucks and I was like... no. D: They were selling Ed jackets tho... which hurt. A lot. .___.;; It hurt even worse to see kids wearing them.... a lot... of kids... ._______.;;;

But I got to spend 3 days with my Christopher, so it was definitely worth it. [I miss you, bitch!!!!]



School:

Exams next week!!!! I AM SO FSCKED!!! <3

I totally ditched last thursday so I have no idea what my English final is on, cause Aki didn't pay attention [thanks dude... .______.;;;] so now I'm totally gonna have to bullshit it, like I always do...

I'm kinda pissed off cause COD is spazzing when I tried to register for my next math class, so I can't get into THAT until I take the final for the prereq, which is the gayest thing I have ever heard in my life. I friggin hate community college.

Art:

Because my classes end in a week, I am currently taking requests if anyone has any. Anything is welcome. <3

I'm currently working on another story to submit for ~LostCauseMagazine's July issue. Hopefully it will be done by the June 26th due date... but I'm slow, so we'll see how that goes. xD

See you later, space cowboy....

Acen, rrrrrrr!! <3 Which means I get to hang out without parental supervision among other geeks my age [and older, which is kinda creepy, now that I think about it....] and do bad things children shouldn't do for 3 days!! Bwahaha~!

This also means my Christopher Todd is coming in to visit!! Yaaaaaay~~~ <3!! Poor Utahn boy... you get to spend 3 days with me and Aki shoved in one room together.... ohhhh, your brain cells are gonna cry five minutes after you get off the plane. <3

If anyone wants to find me I'll prolly be out on Saturday night, skipping around during the Masquerade with a random Roze!Aki that calls me Mommy Neco. .__.;; So if you see a group of 4 girls and 1 guy... that's my group. xD

VISIT ME!!! I'll love you if you don't piss me off. <3

I'll be gone from Friday morning to Sunday night, so I'll see you laters~~

Rrrr, I'ma find a Wolf's Rain artbook this year and it will be PRETTY!!!! >o

Life:

Rejoice! I have returned!!!!!!!!

.........Rejoice dammit. D=!!

And huzzah, I got nothing done over the weekend. .__.;;; I have to study for 2 tests on Tuesday, finish my bone drawings and try to figure out who the hell this really random person is that called my house looking for me.... fscking stalkers.

Anyway. I found this tagged thing on Chris' journal, and I dun feel like unpacking, so... here ya go.

~

1. I have 2 kids!!! Okay not really. ._.;; But Aki calls me Mommy Neco for some reason, and then I adopted ~Xaoxia cause they was both whining about it. Be amazed! Neco actually had kids!!!! [god I'm a whore]

2. I think there's a black hole in my room that keeps sucking in all my crap, since I'm constantly losing everything. That or a ghost. Woo, a ghost would be killer... I could pull an SC and make it my minion. [I would name him Frank!!]

3. I'm really OCD. I freaking rearranged all my book/movie/games/CD shelves in alphabetical order cause I couldnt stand it and I'm constantly rearranging my music when I'm bored, which is a lot. Man, I need to get a life. [and more bookshelves]

4. I'm online almost all the time cause I have no life. I'm serious. If I'm not at class or sleeping, I am online. Check my screen name and I shall be on. [that's creepy]

5. I can quote and sing along to the entire Nightmare Before Christmas movie. I just cant dance to it... oh but one day.... [I'm a loser too...]

6. Every time I see a new anime it's either really obscure or really weird. I can't seem to find a balance.... except maybe FMA. But FMA was really fscked up. So maybe that doesn't count. Oops. [damn you Ed]

School:

Wtf, I have to make a website about scholarships, and I don't know any html besides the fact on how to make font spazzy and how to put in breaks... It will be the crappiest website EVER.

Only 4 more weeks left!!! <3

Art:

I have a few things I'm working on... >.> Maybe I shall post when I get back... maybe not!!! Hell, prolly not, I'm so lazy. .______.;;

But my story made it into *LostCauseMagazine's latest issue! [gasp!]

Go read it. Now. Seriously. [you'll make me cry if you don't, whores]

See you later, Space Cowboy....

Life:

Holy fsck, I'm 19 today. o_____O;; Isn't that crazy? xD Iono.... somehow, the two birthdays between 18 and 21 arent really that exciting... you don't get to do anything new!!! .....Well.....legally at least. xD;;;;

But I did get cake. Oh hell yeah. <3

I also ran over a dead animal on my way back from math class. I'M SORRY BAMBI!!! ToT;;;

School:

Rrrr, pissy as always.... I'm pretty sure I failed my math test [Neco? Bad at math? I had no idea!!!] [shut up D=!!] and my art history teacher made us watch this one movie where these people killed a bull and skinned it.

How does that deal with art? ........Hell if I know. o.o;;;

Art:

I'm still trying to find time to think of new drawings and stuff.... but everyone's bday is in March like mine and now I have to draw pictures for people and ogkladjkldsalskf!!!

Damn it, you're all posers of me with your March birthdays. >.>;;;

I'm also thinking about starting a few new stories dealing with Hashiro and Nag [you know you miss them, bitches!!] and maybe reviving another old story, since I have a few more things fleshed out....

But will I get to it?

..............Pffff..........

See you later, Space Cowboy....

School:

They liiiiie when they say you'll love college. [ie community college] Seriously... my classes just annoy the hell outta me cause they dont really COUNT toward anything yet I'm paying for them anyway!! Such as... MATH. See, you know it's bad when the first day the teacher is like "THIS IS A FRACTION. THIS IS AN IMPROPER FRACTION. THIS IS HOW YOU GET A MIXED NUMBER."

I. Wanted. To. Shoot. Myself. [headDESK]

My english professor treats us like fscking 5 year olds too, and thinks we can't do anything without her guiding us STEP BY STEP. She spent the first two weeks of class teaching us about plagiarism, and made us write a paper on how we're not going to do it. I got an A- on that paper too. My writer's soul boils at that minus. DDD=!!

I have a math test tomorrow. And anthro on Thursday. And Art History next Tuesday. And drawings for antrho. And an article due for AH.

Shits.

Life:

I BOUGHT A CHOCOBO PLUSHIE!!!!!!!!!! [waddles it across the desktop]

Art:

Found a lot of my old art pieces that I never finished and decided that I'm going to redo them with my new technique with the pen tool and such. Hopefully I'll some of that stuff up when all my tests and crap are over.

Also might write a story from poor Lyre's point of view. He's so neglected.

See you later, Space Cowboy....

For, you see.... I really like this whole bumming around the house and playing around in Photoshop... instead of getting up at 630 in the morning, driving the 45 minutes to campus, sitting in class from 930 to 1215, and listening to my brain cells die. .___.;;

Le sigh... I have a night class too..... Haha, 3 hours of art history, sitting in a room with 70 other kids.... sounds liek a party!! x___X;;

Not to mention the math... so.... I WILL NOT MENTION IT!!!!! [headdesk]

At least I was somewhat smart.... nooooo school no Fridays, hyr hyr hyr. xD And!!! I have a 100 class on Mondays and Wednesdays... wooooooooo.... only getting up early 2x a week. <333333

I should really try and find my backpack....but that means cleaning my room... and ooooooh so lazy.... xD;;;

Sorry if I seem kinda dead lately... I have noooo more ideas for manips, soooo... if anyone has an idea/request... tell meeeee... and you shall recieve. >.>

Other than that.... I am the picture of boringness. .___.;;

I'm that hot, yo.

2. Ever since I remarked to Aki that I'm like her mommy in how I have to make sure she doesn't get hit by a car, she calls me Mommy Neco. .__.;; I'M TOO YOUNG TO BE PISSED OFF BY CHILDREN!!!

3. I want a pony, but not just any pony... I want one of those lil miniature horses that are the size of dogs, and I will make him pull my Doom Cart that I totally ripped off from ATHF!!! You shall fear me and my pint-sized pony, foo.

4. When I was 8, my brother got pissed off at me and cut me with the scissors, and I had to get 10 stitches in my arm. o____O;;;

5. Continuing on that note, no one ever believes me when I say I have a brother!! Everyone thinks I'm an only child cause everytime they come over to my house, my brother is either in his room or just not home. But he's 26 and needs to move his ass out so I can totally take over his room and not be crushed in my lil one. ;o;

6. At least every year of my elementary school career, my bus got into AT LEAST one traffic accident... it was amazing. o_____o;;

7. I was in choir from the 4th grade until freshmen year of high school.

8. I have the entire Fullmetal Alchemist series in Japanese, and the movie too... YES THE MOVIE. Which confirmed my theory that Ed is a dumbass and can't drive without a pillow. And that asian people need to learn how to make better bootleg copies of movies with a camcorder. x___X;; FIRST PART IS JUST THE TOP OF AL'S HEAD WTF.

9. Me and my friend Jessi were screwing around in Chemistry once and we had the bunsen burner going, and ya know that rubber tubing that ya use to connect those to the gasline? ......Yeah some of that was hanging from a shelf and we totally set it on fire and it was totally awesome.

10. I've been writing since I was in the 6th grade... my teacher saw this story I was supposed to submit and pitched a spazz about it. Consequently, five of my poems/stories ended up in my school's literary magazine when I was junior. ....Yay? .____.;;

11. I have either visited or drove through every state in the Midwest!! ....My parents like to camp a lot. @.@;;

12. The first time I ever went to a Six Flags amusement park was last summer. ......HOW PATHETIC IS THAT?! [dies] The only coasters I went on were that stupid Ragin' Cajun ride that bruised my ass and that Superman: Ultimate Flight one. And I almost drowned in the Lazy River. Yes.... even tho its only 2 feet deep. .____.;;

13. I was attacked by deer when I was like, 8. There's this deer park in Wisconsin Dells and you could feed them crackers, and I was MOBBED!!!! ;~~~; Stupid effin deer. D=

14. Our school did the theatre version of The Hobbit, and I got to be a cave door!!!! During one of the rehearsals, Sullie dropped the scrim too zone and I almost got smacked on the head with the metal bar that weighs it down. NEAR DEATH THEATRE EXPERIENCE, OOOOOOO.

15. I am 18 and I have yet to have a job in my life. I'm. Such. A. Bum.

16. My first introduction to anime was when my friend Mike showed me Final Fantasy IX. .....Yeaaaaah... we all know how that turned out. .____.;; I still lurve that game. ;~~~; I WANT ZIDANE'S TAIL!!!!! The fluffy one, not his ass.

17. I've only gone to Acen twice, and I think it's already scarred me for life. o____O;; There's something about seeing old grodey men dressed up as girls in clothes that no man was ever supposed to wear that makes me want to swear off men for the rest of my life. Tangent~~~~

~~~~When me and Chris were trying to get to sleep on Saturday of last year, we heard this lady moaning through the vents and we just kinda looked at each and went "wtf..." and it went for 10 minutes!!!!!!! Tell me if that is not reason enough to be scared of that hotel at night. o.o;;;~~~~

18. For some reason, whenever anyone meets me, they think I'm this scary bitch that dresses in black, listens to death metal and writes emo dark poetry. Then I open my mouth and it's just like "Omgwtf?!" cause no one seems to realize that I'm in all reality this stupid artist/writer that likes anime and needs to get a life other than the Internet. ._____.;;

19. I have at least one wolf item on every surface of my room... including my bulliten board and walls. o.o;; And I even sleep with a lil wolf plushie that Chris sent me for Valetine's Day... omg TAISA'S SO FLUFFY!!!! And not Mustang Taisa, the other Taisa that I sleep w... ]]> ~Dragonrain http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/6844150/ http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/6844150/ Sun, 23 Oct 2005 10:06:06 PDT
That and combined with the craptacularness of life right now, I'm not even sure if I'm gonna be around much at all.

Oh well.

Sorry everyone.

I have four classes, am at school from 8:30 am to 12 or 1 pm most days, do homework for just as long, and when I'm done with THAT, I'm way too tired to draw or write or even doing anything other than throw my books on the floor and pass out on the bed. x___X

And I'm going to *junior* college, omgWTF. [plugface]

So to mix it up, I ditched Japanese today, and went to the Borders down the street, oh noes!! Neco's so badass, hyr hyr hyr. [headdesk]

That, children, is why Neco posted all of four CG'ed pictures in September... I've been in school for about a month and I already wish I had graduated from the whole damn thing. >.<;;; But nuuuu... I have to be there another 2 years before I can transfer to Utah, rrrr. ;o;!!

The only thing that I managed to get out to do was see Corpse Bride on Saturday, and I didn't like it, even tho it was animated like Nightmare Before Christmas. It was like Tim Burton wanted to make a musical, then gave up after 4 songs and 77 minutes of animation. ._____.;;; And Johnny Depp didn't sing in any of the songs, wtf. DD=

Not sure if I'm gonna be around as much lately... I'll try to post new pictures, but liek... don't expect much, eh heh....

School eated my brains~~~~ [splatt]

So if anyone does.... help poor Neco and she will love you FOREVER!!!!

Now....

Omfg, random and probably insignificant spoilers are ahead because Neco notices stupid lil things that bother her.

x. The fight scenes were so crazy I thought I was gonna have a seizure watching them run back and forth. Especially on those damn motorcycles. And I think Tifa is my new hero. Or maybe Vincent. He just went WHOOSH SPARKLE!!! and everyone ran away crying. XD

x. Bahamut reminded me a little too much of the FFX Bahamut... kinda like SE was like "Hmm, we have so many bahamuts but since FFX is more like AC, let's just steal our own design and tweak it and pretend it's a whole new dragon!!!" But it was still bad ass.

x. Kadaj annoyed me. He was just like "OMFG NIISAN I KICK YO ASS!!" in that annoying Envy voice and then he sent out Loz and Yazoo to beat up Cloud. o____O;; But I felt bad for him in the end. ;___;

x. Hahaha, [beep]* got shot twice. .....I don't know why that was funny, but when he got shot the second time, I just burst out laughing even though it was supposed to be really dramatic. ^ ^;;;

x. Reno and Rude completely stole the movie for me. The scenes they were in were so hilarious and they were so bumbling at parts I almost passed out from laughing so hard.

x. The ending with Sephiroth... omfg, it was so damn pretty. *o* And when he stabbed Cloud, there was blood on the sword!!! I was so happy. ^o^

x. Marlene was so cute I wanted to die. Why?
Cloud: Wakarimasuka?
Marlene: Wakarimasen!! [stamps foot!]
Neco: OMFG!!! [squeals]

x. Hahaha, Rufus had Roy's voice. <333

x. Loz's ringtone was so retarded it was funny.


*Because I dont want people killing me. ._____.;;


End spoilers... prolly!!!

And that is Neco's ramblings about AC. XD Like I said.... I notice stupid lil things, and there are even more stupid lil things that I can rant about, but I won't cause then I'll have to fear for my life for people being pissed off that I gave too much away. @.@;;;

But I saw it, and I am happy. XD

..........I SHOULD DO MY ENGLISH ESSAY!!!!

Though I think I left my brain.......back that way. [points toward Glen Elynn]

I have been in college for a week and a half, and rrrr, it's so retarded!! The parking at my school is friggin insane, and when I went in for my Japanese class last week, it took me 45 minutes to find a space and I was late for class!! Agh!

I think they're building two new lots ( WHILE SCHOOL IS IN PROGRESS AND THUS MAKING PARKING EVEN MORE OF A HELL YAY COD!!!! ) but that's not gonna help.... there's just way too many people going to CoD and rrrr... I'm not even gonna go into how dumb people are there. ._____.;;

Let's just say I've seen a lotta people from my high school there, and they were the really stupid ones.

My classes aren't really that much better.... English is ok, but the teacher rants a lot, and I sit in the back with the "o______O;;;" face all period, Philosophy is so dry and boring, and I end up drawing.... Japanese.... oh god, this is how weird our class is.

The teacher was in the middle of a lesson, saying how the Japanese like to shorten everything, and he writes "Baakin" on there...

Kid: What's that? o____O;;
Shingo: Burger King!!!!
Us: o____o;;
Shingo: Burger King!! Where you eat.... BURGERS!!!!!
Us: O_____O;;;

Then he went even more off topic and decided to tell us all to come visit him and other teachers at this sushi resturaunt and me and the girl at my table were like "Aren't we supposed to learning for our test on Monday?!" and yeah... oops. o.o;;

Anthro.... hahaha, my teacher is a WOODSMAN!!! Imagine Hagrid from HP...and BAM!! THAT IS MY TEACHER!!!! O.O The other day, to prove a point about something called a teacher's cage, he started squealing like a monkey and going "GIMME A BEER!!" and thus scarring the entire class for life.

Yeah... even tho I'm alive right now, I have 15 more pages of Philosophy I need to outline (I HATE PHILOSOPHY!!!!!) for tomorrow, and I have a test in Japanese and Anthro to read, but I kinda gave up, so yeah. .____.;;; Not sure how much I'll be around.... I have class every day, and thus have homework every day.... so ummmm...

........Ow. .________________.;;;

I still have like, 21397841 pictures sitting on my compu....which I will color.... one day!! So maybe I won't be completely dead til Thanksgiving break. xD;;;;

Until the next time.... POOF!!!! [headdesks from college overdose]

I'm looking through my japanese workbook and there's two sections... one called Katakana and the other is called Hiragana. The first one is stuff you pronounce literally, and the other is just regular Japanese... and um...Katakana......is weird. o______O;;;


Lemon = Remon
Rice = Raisu
Monkey dance ( swear to god, that's in there ) = Monkii Dansu
Apple = Appru
Doctor = Dokutaa
Wings = Uingu

Then they had "Kaa kaa" which is the sound crows make, and hahaha, that's funny if you know Lyre and Aeon. xD;;;;

Now to teh part where I bet you're all saying "NECO!! WHAT IS YOU SAYING ABOUT A GREEN PARAKEET!!!" Well...........this is the story. .________.;;

Me: [staring into backyard] OH MY GOD!!! THERE'S A PARAKEET IN THE BIRD FEEDER!!
Kitta: O.O!!! [people yelling about outside whoosh!!!]
Me: Nuuuuuuu!! [grabtackle!!] STAY!!!
Kitta: [flail!]
Mom: Omgwtf, you're weird. DD=
Me: No!! There's a parakeet out there!! [sits on kitta]
Mom: Yeah right-- [goes to window] HOLY SHIT THERE'S A PARAKEET OUT THERE!!!
Kitta: [pitches a spazz]
Mom: [opens door]
Parakeet: [omgwtf, weird people DDD=] [flies off!!]
Kitta: [OMGTHEY'REGOINGOUTSIDELEMMEGOOOOOOOOO!!] [runs outside!!!!]
Me: [goes outside] Awww, I wanted a new pet bird!! ;_______;
Parakeet: [omg YOU WONT CATCH ME HOR!!!] [swoop at Neco's FACE!!!!]
Me: O.O!! OH MY FUCK!!! [duck!!!]
Parakeet: [flies over roof and disappears likes James Bond!]
Me: ................Why do birds hate me? D=

That is my story.

That's exactly how it happened.

I don't think I can ever look at a parakeet the same way again.

And let me say... Door County sucks, and I never wanna go back there. >.<;; There was seriously nothing to do up there but sit around in the RV and watch the movies that my mommy brought with her, and poke my dog with her chewing bone just to see what reactions I'd get outta her. @.@;;

Did you KNOW, even though Door County's a peninsula, there are NO PUBLIC BEACHES? O.O Isn't that just amazing? [amazed] Hahaha, the only beach that we found was one in this park called Whitefish Dunes and my dog nearly killed herself trying to catch the waves in her mouth. .____.;;

Anyway!! I posted a few of the good pictures I got outta the trip, along with a spazztastic collage of...fish. o.O Go look, and you shall be rewarded!!!

If anyone really wants a full detailed log of my trip and MORE PICTURES ( including some rather total Neco moments XDD ) go to my LJ here: [link]

And there you have it... the amazing journey that was Neco's vacation in the backwoods of Wisconsin.

Well, it wasn't THAT amazing... just boring. XD;;;

And when I finally find some crap to entertain me too. >.<;;

So! My parents decided it would be fun to go to Wisconsin!! But not the Dells, or any other well known city.. no....we get to go to a peninsula I didn't even know existed that sticks out into Lake Michigan!! .....To put it into perspective the peninsula is 16 MILES ACROSS.

Yes.... I'm wondering how people live there too. o.O

But this sucks!! Why? BECAUSE ALL MY FRIENDS LEAVE FOR COLLEGE WHILST I AM LOST IN THE WILDERNESS!!! O.O;;; And Neco still gets to stay here and go to CoD and prove that she is the dumbest dumb person there. DDD=

But at least Aki will be there too... and hopefully some other people I know... and hopefully some other people I know WONT be there cause they suck. ._______.;;;

[hahaha, makes NO SENSE WHATSOEVER!!! DDD=!!!]

It's late... almost 1 in the morning... and I leave at 7 Monday morning for a 5 hour drive to this mysterious probably non-existant Wisconsin land.

..........A 5 hour drive with my dog. Who is shedding. And very fluffy. And will prolly smother me with her spazziness in trying to see out the window. That she learned to roll down cause she's too damn smart for her own good.

I'll be gone and internet deprived until Friday... so until then...

SC: i'm not talking to you!!
Neco: and his goes under!!

SC: stop dissing harukasan!!
Neco: haruka?

Neco: [points to name on picture]
Neco: well, i'm just saying!!
SC: well haruka drew it!
SC: i'm not talking to you anymore!
Neco: what'd i do!?
Neco: damn
Neco: women

Note: It was a very pretty picture, and I'm NOT dissing the artist. This was just to get on SC's nerves, and I think I did so beautifully.

If I'm not alive tomorrow....then you shall all know why.

Last night, I was playing Pyramid Solitare ( oh my god that game is so freakin addictive ) and suddenly my tablet light went out and my compu made that annoying ding noise...I didn't think much of it, cause that happens sometimes, and I plugged Mr. Tabby back in...but...

After that, the tablet isn't reading the pen end of the pen...like, there's an end with an eraser, then the pointed end that you draw with, and it's not reading hte pointy end!! The LED light just stays orange instead of turning green when I tap on the plate, and it's royally pissing me off.

I reinstalled the software...but still, it refuses to work....Oh, the eraser end works, but I can't draw with an eraser in Photoshop. ._________.;;;

If this has happened to anyone before...Please tell me what you did to fix it, cause I dun wanna be without my tabby. ;______;

If I can't fix it myself, I have to email Wacom and be like "IT BROKE FIX IT!!!" and they have to email me this form, I have to mail the tabby back to them, they fix it, blah blah blah...

BUT!! [oh yes it gets better] I never got a warranty card when I ordered the thing from friggin Best Buy....I didn't get one from CompUsa either, when I ordered my first one, come to think of it...and it says you NEED that card to have them fix it, so I have to email them and ask them about that...

Ohhhh, it's such a pain in the ass. .___________.;;;

So um...yeah....Dont know when I'm gonna be able to submit another drawing cause touch pads suck ass, and I can nay draw with one.

I might submit some writing...but hahaha, stupid Neco, no one ever READS on DA!!! [headdesk]

Um...yeah, I'm done. .__.;

Note: Trades and Requests are open.

I found this survey in one of SC's old LJs, and since I'm really bored and want to poison everyone's brains on DA, and because LJ hates me when I do surveys, I'll post it here!!

1. When was the last time you saw a sunrise? Oh god...when was the last time I was AWAKE the last time there was a sunrise?

2. On average, how many times do you hit the snooze button in the morning? I don't have an alarm...I just tend to roll over and shove the blankets in my ears when my mom friggin VACCUUMS OUTSIDE MY ROOM AT 6 IN THE MORNING!!!! >o
3. Are you more apt to make plans or just wing it? Well, as many people know from Acen...I tend to wing it. Oh, but next year...>.>...

4. Study or cram? Hahaha, neither!! ....Maybe that's why I got a D on my gov't final...o.o;;;

5. Loud club or quiet pub? Uhhhh...I'd rather just stay in my room? o.O

6. Movies, TV, Music or Books: Movies and TV....music when I'm drawing or writing....books when I actually find the patience to sit down and read.

7. What’s the stupidest thing you’ve ever done? Me and Jessi tried snorting the cinnamen Altoids powder...and...........just a thought, NEVER DO THAT!!!!!! IT BURRRRRRRRNS!!!! [headdesk]

8. If you could make any incident in your life go away, what would it be? Probably my entire elementary school experience, because I was not a happy child. .___.;;

9. Did you ever date someone just because you knew your parents didn’t like them? Well, I liked him at the time, but my parents hated him, then for once, I finally agreed with them and it was AMAZING. O.O

10. What part of the world do you think the sexiest people come from? Australia has some pretty hot guys. With accents!!! And perhaps....Utah?

11. If you could be anything or anyone for a day what would you be? I would be...me!! Because I'm really boring and am too lazy to try and think right now.

12. What was the first album you ever bought? I don't BUY things...persay....

13. What would be the title of your autobiography? "One day...!"

14. If you could bring anything back from one decade what would it be and what decade would it be from? Probably the decade where people weren't total dumbasses...oh wait, that hasn't happened yet. >.>;;;

15. Have you ever called somebody you liked only to hang up when they answered? Well, ya see, my fone just likes to DIE whenever I call long distance, so that tends to happen a lot...

16. If your name were in a tabloid headline what would you want it to say? "Neco takes out two city blocks in explosion of rage!! Pictures on page 2."

17. If you could change your name what would you change it to? Neco!!! Cause my real name is so boring and generic. [sigh]

18. Who do you most identify with Beavis or Butthead? That was seriously the stupidest show I have ever seen in my life and it should be burned. Damn it.

20. Have you ever carved yours and/or someone else’s initials into anything? No, not really....prolly cause no one lets me have anything sharp enough to carve anything in anything!! And that's probably a good thing...

Bwahaha...I also got the new L'arc~en~Ciel CD early cause the SC is awesome and somehow found it online 2 days before it came out. Yaaaaay for SC.

I highly recommend it!! It has the FMA song "Lost Heaven" and lots of other good songs that make me wanna sway and blast in my car when I drive. XD It's just fun to see people look at me and think "Why is that scary white girl listening to Japanese.....? o_____________O;;;;;;"

Anwayyyy...

I have officially left high school FOREVER!!!!! Today was my last day of classes as a senior and now I can realize how screwed I am for the future, bwahaha!! ='D

But it feels so damn GOOD to get the hell outta of high school...I've been stuck there for 4 YEARS and have learned absolutely NOTHING!! Especially gym. Did you KNOW Illinois is the only state with a mandatory 4 yr gym program in high school?

Yeah, our state sucks THAT much.

The only thing I have left is graduation...and that is on Sunday...and I'm invited to a jillion graduation parties, omgwtf. o.o;; Somehow, the thought of our lil group at lunch getting back together in a non school environment...seems like a bad idea.

How bad? Oh, I will post pictures and show you.

So now I have the whole summer ahead of me to sit around and do nothing but sleep, write and draw...and perhaps beat frickin Star Ocean that I've been playing for over a month and am STILL NOT DONE WITH DISC 1!!!!!!! >o<;;;;;;

Stupid Marquis dragon steps on me and I go squish. ;o;

And there you have it, another episode in Neco's Should-Really-Get-A-Life. She has finally graduated and is a big girl now, yay!! XDD

Oh...and to those of you still in school...HAHAHA!! I AM FREE AND YOU'RE NOT~~~!!!!

Well... I returned yesterday...but I fell asleep as soon as I got home, so yeah. Plus I kinda ditched school today, but that's ok!! I got to sleep in s'more and recover from Acen, yaaaaaaay. XDD

I wrote all about my LJ, so now you all shall see the crazyness that Neco went through!!

LJ cut: [link]

And now...I should prolly really sleep...but...eh. ]]> ~Dragonrain http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/4702359/ http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/4702359/ Sun, 03 Apr 2005 15:39:11 PDT Since I'm finding out I have a lot more time nowadays cause my teachers are getting really lazy toward graduation, I'm taking requests or art trades if anyone wants any!

Probably woulda been smarter to announce that at the *beginning* of Spring Break...but we all know how absent minded Neco is. ^ ^;;;;;

Wahhhh, mah spring break ends today and that means SCHOOL TOMORROW OMGWTF!!!! >O< !!!! And that means actually have to apply myself to stuff other than staying up late, sleeping in, and drawing and just bein a bum.

BUT!! As the all mighty SC has just informed me...only 8 weeks left til graduation!! Yaaaaaaay!! NO MORE HIGH SCHOOL FOR NECO!!!

But this also means...I'd best get up off my ass and apply myself or else Neco won't graduate, ahahaha.... ._______.;; At least if you fail a quarter you don't fail the semester...and the class that I failed I don't need to graduate, ahahaha!!!

I didn't do much...I went out with my friends yesterday and we saw Sin City. I got so BORED at the end...I mean, the gore was fun at the beginning...then it just got repetitive...and me and SC were like "Is it over yet?!"

And one of the guys inside carded us when he saw our tickets...and apparently, I look 21 now and my friends got in cause of my jump in age!! [shocked!] Yes they were too. It went sorta like this.....

Guy: Uh...this movie is rated R...do u guys have ID?
Me and SC: Yeah....[gets out licenses]
Momo: Lemme call my dad........
Guy: Oh, it's ok! She's 21, right? [points to me]
SC and Momo:
Me: Uhhh...Sure, let's go with that!!!
Guy: Ok, you guys can go!!
Us: [in awe....and running like hell before guy can figure out Neco's so not 21!!!!]

It was THAT amazing.

That was like...my only highlight of the whole week, hahaha. .___.;; That and I found out I have really bad roadrage when there's a long ass line of cars turning left while I'm trying to turn right out of the Walmart parking lot. ^.^

Well...That's it for me for now. I'm gonna go liek...do stuff...and probably watch that Finding Neverland movie SC gave me yesterday.

I'm not that exciting lately...just been going to that thing called school, doodling and not paying attention as always. I should be doing my Genetics homework right now but...eh...

I have a tech meeting on Tuesday, so that means tech'll probably start either Wednesday or Thursday. Not sure if I'm gonna keep on doing it for this play...I have a bunch of issues with some of the people in it, and I don't know if I wanna deal with a bunch of freshmen too.

Removing "City of Howls" because it's not going anywhere and I don't feel like keeping it up in my gallery. I'll put it back up if I ever go back to editing or continuing it.

Not much else going on...Just thought I'd update everyone and show that I'm not quite dead. Or...am I? [mysterious....] ]]> ~Dragonrain http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/3188683/ http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/3188683/ Sun, 29 Aug 2004 18:24:00 PDT Mood:
Listening to: Let's Get Retarded - Black Eyed Peas
---------------------------------------- ------------------------------

I do believe this is the most random song I have ever listened to...but it's really funny and that's all the matters!

I have survived two days of school!! .......Only 9 more months until graduation!! Haha, I'm so sad...It's not so bad though...I keep spacing out in my classes cause we're not doing anything and I doodled a really crappy pleseosaur that I might CG on my four day weekend...or whenever the hell I finish my story....which hopefully will be this week...

But probably won't be, knowing me and my procrastination and horrible terrible writing skillz.

I'm beginning to really hate Graphics though...I mean, I know the basics of photoshop and it turns out to be a more complicated Open Canvas, but we have to use a mouse...to draw...which sucks. And I learned that I can't draw with a mouse for the life of me. Almost nine months with a tablet has destroyed all mouse skills I used to have back in the day. Hurrah. >.<

Plus, there's all this shit that's happening with Jessi...and makes me again realize how fucking stupid people are. I mean, come on, I really thought people actually had consciences these days, or at least some form of self-control. But, apparently, once again I was wrong and I'm learning once more how badly one person can stab another in the back.

But don't worry. Neco and Jessi's collective anger are being put to good use. Destructive...but good.

And to think, I thought I had left all that kinda drama behind when I finished junior year last year. It seems that people just never change.

A sour ending to a once upbeat journal. Where did the happiness go?

I'm actually in a kinda good mood right now...!! But I'm pissed off at my dentist....Three years ago I got my braces off and he chipped the enamel on some of my teeth, and didn't fix it back then....so now it's all screwed and he wants to fix it...But it's all on my back teeth, so yay!! Can't see it unless yer looking for it...and I was looking for it and I saw it and I was like "WTF!!! That's like...not...good....that he let that sit... ._.;;;;;" So yeah....gotta go back next month...Eww.

And school starts next weeeeeeeek...::whines:: I DONT WANNA GO BACK!! I wanna be a lazy bum and continue to sit around drawing and writing and stuff....They're gonna make me weeeeeeeeerk. And I have gym FIRST PERIOD...which suxxors....and now we have this Advisory thing that worked with our freshmen at their little campus, so the admins were like "Let's annoy the rest of our students with it!!" It's team building skills or some other nonsense.....I don't work well on a team!! Childhood team picking scarred me on that....

But I have lunch with SC and ~MewMyuu!! Yaaaaay!! Even if it is only half a period. And me and Memwyuu should probably talk to our teacher about that mural....cause...yeah....

I'm writing again!! OH MY GOD HOW CRAZY!! I'm writing a story with * DominicFrost's character Dominic, cause he's too good of a character NOT to be Neco-ized in writing....and cause I think he's the perfect tragic and angsty character!! I mean...come on...he's picked up as a kid, has a few friends, then BAM!! Kicked out of town by a raging mob cause he's different!! And then other stuff that happens that I only vaguely know about from what Dom's told me...Yeah...It's sad....I'ma buy his book when it comes out cause I need to know what happens to this poor boy!!

Go read his chapters in his gallery...and then you will know why I love his character!!

I might write something with my Vere'nati Triad...cause I lurve those characters....They go back to the only thing I ever finished in eighth grade....So old....Even if I did have to change names and species....::huggles them::

And now I'm watching Family Guy........and that combined with writing....makes Neco happy!!!!!!!!!!

People just piss me off way too much lately. So much so that I just want to beat them all with a bat and be done with it! Eeerggg...

I was pchatting with ~MewMyuu and she was off drawing with someone that she had met earlier, while I was drawing in my own corner. I usually draw guidelines for my animals and I had circles for the heads of a pair of wolves I was gonna draw, when some sick fucking perv decided that they would like nice as part of a naked female torso. Ooooh, that pissed me off. A lot. I don't know WHY people just can't respect someone else's drawings and just LEAVE THEM FUCKING BE!!! God, I don't go up to your drawings and fuck them up and turn them into naked people, jack asses.

And I'm kinda pissed off at one of my friends, too. I told him that I was going to a party on Saturday and he's like "Cool!! Can I come?!" when I made it CLEAR that it was just gonna be me, Mewmyuu, Dave, Momo and SC and no one else could come. So if he shows up on Saturday, I'm gonna kick his ass into next week. I don't need him to pull a Matt and show up uninvited.

Another so-called friend of mine is being an ass lately too. A few days ago, I was trying to talk to him about my problems with my upcoming classes since no one else would listen, and he just goes off and yells "Shut up!! Maybe if you weren't so fucking reserved and caught up in yourself, you'd have more friends!! And stop complaining to me about your problems, I don't care!!"

Ooooh, I LOVE how my friends are so god damn understanding of me.

My mom's been bitching at me lately too, because I don't feel like going in for Senior pictures. I don't understand what the big deal is....I honestly don't care if I'm in the yearbook or not, it's like I love high school or anything. I have more than enough pictures to remember my friends by, and there are some things about high school I'd really just like to forget.

Now I'm gonna go watch sharks maul people cause I hate everyone and they deserve to be eaten by pissed off fish. ]]> ~Dragonrain http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/2883365/ http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/2883365/ Fri, 23 Jul 2004 17:16:53 PDT Life Blues

I was at the movies all day today...I have's a headache from so many loud noises. @.@...I saw Harry Potter again because I liked that movie, despite the poor anorexic Lupin. I'm just wondering where the hell Hermione learned to blow up things, and how come she can do it when I can't, dammit!!

I saw I, Robot too, and it was good, I am proud to say. I was surprised at how close it was to the story "Lost Little Robot" [what it's really based off of] in the beginning, and how it faded into "The Evitable Conflict." It had some great one liners that I now must use in real life, and some sweet roboty action. A lotta people say it's like The Matrix, but only because of the robots, really...the other ideas that are in it have been done and just made popular by The Matrix...which is a series I hate so very much.

I am so happy! Sc gave me new music today so I won't be completely deprived on my way to South Dakota! Whee! She gave me the AFI cd "Sing the Sorrow" or whatever it's called, and "Meteora" by Linkin Park. Haven't heard much of new Linkin Park, so I'm willing to give it a shot.

Still looking for that one Wolf's Rain song. It's instrumental, meaning no words, and it starts off with a few seconds of violin, then quiets, and starts again with a high and light piano that, after a minute or so, gets an undercurrent of violin in the low scale. If anyone knows the name, I will love you forever.

I leave in two days!! How sad. TT.TT...But I guess it's okay. A lotta my friends are gonna be gone next week too, so it's not like I'm gonna be missing out on anything.

I was helping my ma look up campgrounds in the Hill City/Keystone region today...We found all of 2 that had RV hookups and weren't specifically for people with horsies. >.> The one we used to go to got overly upgraded and publicised, so now it sucks in my parents' eyes. *shrug* It was crowded and full of people, and Necos tend not to like big groups of people...*nodnod*

Me and my friend SC got into a fight today about who should've played Remus and Sirius in HP3. If you think about it, they should only be in their 30s, not really young, but not overly old either. Sirius looked like a bum when he was supposed to be hot! T.T And Remus didn't even look like Remus!

So we have come up with a solution!! We said that Hugh Jackman should have played Remus, cause he needs a non-actiony movie that is still somewhat actiony [with a wand!! XD!!]. For Sirius, we decided...Well, at this point, we just agreed that no one in the world was hot enough to play Sirius and the whole damn movie should have been an animated thing. *nodnod* Then the werewolf wouldn't have been freaking anorexic and everybody would have looked like they should've.

Not sure what else to ramble about...so I shall leave it at this!! Ph34r the HP animated goodness!! xD

But still!!! FREE!! And next year, I get out a period early cause I have early dismissal, and I get to laugh at all the other chilluns that must stay. Hehe...That's fun times....

Holy crap, I saw HP3 and it was cool beans...But the anorexic werewolf--Not so much. I mean, I wasn't expecting the Van Helsing huge and furry lycans, cause yeah, it's a friggin kids more, but why did it look like an old guy that hadn't eaten in 2 months?! Still...It was a good movie. They cut out some parts and rearranged stuff (like that broom thing, that bothered me and the closing shot freaked me out) but they added some good scenes. Buckbeak was freaking awesome. Now I want one...

Ahahaha, now that summer is here, I will be able to get all my writing done! Yay! I still need to think of a plot for several stories, draw pictures cause I feel like drawing, and basically do all the stuff I was too lazy to do during the school year.

Yeah, probably. I'm not though, honestly. There's too much crap going on at school to deal with, mainly because of a chick that seems to find it fun to spread rumors about me and my ex-boyfriend to anyone that'll listen. She'll cling to any boy that says a nice word to her and is spiteful to anyone that even looks at her or her guy cockeyed.

This is the same girl that broke up with my friend Tim, and is spreading rumors about him as well, just because he's got some intelligence in that head of his and refuses to take her back just because she wants a boyfriend again. So, she's deciding to spread as much untrue and superficial crap about him as she can before school lets out.

I'll tell you a little story. She came to our lunch period when she hasn't been in there for the entire semester, and the first thing she says when I come up to the table, more than a little surprised to see her, is "Stay the fuck away from Tim." Oh, okay, bitch, yeah, whatever the hell you say. Like you really think I'm gonna stay away from one of my friends because you say so, and because you're jealous that I actually have friends and you don't? Get it through your thick little skull that I don't care what you have to say anymore and that I don't want anything more to do with you!!!! GOD!!!!

See, this is why I really hate the people at my school. They're so involved in their own little love affairs that they don't give a fuck about anyone else around them, and they tend to piss off the wrong people, i.e. me. It seems that everyone is either destined to piss me off directly, or piss me off indirectly by screwing with one of my friends. If I wasn't such a nice person, I'd beat them with tools from the scene shop and then drop the sound baffles on them, and then the nice hard metal pipe of the scrim on their face.

Yeah, there are advantages to working in theatre. You should get involved, cause then you have fun toys to kill people with.

And that's Neco's Happy Fun Life as it has been playing out lately. Look for the soap opera coming out soon on Daytime Television and the book hitting shelves this summer. ]]> ~Dragonrain http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/2491409/ http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/2491409/ Sun, 23 May 2004 15:06:29 PDT
So it was 's Bday yesterday, and we went to see Van Helsing, second time for me cause I'm cool and I went to see it again. It was me, Mewmyuu and Jessica, and during the whole movie, me and Jessica were making fun of the movie, because though it was a good movie, there were a lotta things to be made fun of. Such as...
1. The vampire brides: They died way too slowly and far too dramatically....
2. Dracula: Ok, the guy had three brides. I think he's trying to compensate for something....don't you?
3. Van Helsing: He was like freaking Batman with his utility belt!! (Even though Hugh Jackman is kick ass)

And then that night, cause me and Tim are so awesomely cool, we started quoting Aqua Teen Hunger Force episodes back and forth to each other for like...30....minutes....O.o. Yeah, we're cool...

And who wants to hear how cool I am? Oh, I think you all do. My coolness has just been amped up a kajillion points because I ordered a Harry Potter shirt. And not just any Harry Potter shirt! A prison workshirt with Azkaban across the back...Oh yeah, I'll be stylin' when I get that thing....about a week from now...::nodnod::

I have finals the week after this one, but I'm already done with 2, so I have...4 more left, I think. English, Math, Chem and Astronomy...Math's gonna be such a bitch. >.@ And of course, it'll be fun in Creative Writing...I'm one of the 3, count em, 3 juniors in that class...And seniors leave Wednesday. That'll be fun. Hehe.

Two more weeks of school!! Can Neco make it!? When will she get her Azkaban shirt?! How much longer can she pretend she's cool?!

The answers to these and many more questions you all probably have will be answered during the next episode of "Neco's Totally Random and Pointless Journals!" Yaaaaaaaay!!! ^___________^!!! ]]> ~Dragonrain http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/2436404/ http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/2436404/ Sat, 15 May 2004 18:52:34 PDT
It was soooooooo fun, omg! There were so many people that made cool costumes, like this one guy who was really hot that dressed up as Sephiroth and then later showed up without a shirt. (five pictures of that boy, oh yeh) There were waaaaay too many Inuyashas and Kagomes and Yunas and Rikkus and such. I only saw one guy who played Tsume from Wolf's Rain and he did a really good job, and I gots pictures of hiiiiim! xD

And there were lots of people asking for hugs...lots...of people. A few of them were really cute too. xD Like this one guy in the forum hall, and this random guy that was standing in line for something. Ahahaha, I shoulda asked for numbers!! Then I saw my friend Ryan doing the same thing and I laffed and took a picture cause I'm mean like that. O.o

So yes, I am not dead, merely on hiatus as I get my life together as school draws to an end, movies to go see, conventions to go to, people to beat up and a guy that I need to stalk for my bestest buddy Jessi. (don't ask about that one) I'm working on more pictures, including a freaking mural for my English teacher (whom I hate >.< that and I are doing, my SoM series and its adjoining sketchies and pieces.

My mom flipped out on me today because she thinks I cut a class last Friday and I didn't tell her. I didn't cut a class, I had a field trip, the teacher signed off, end of story. No, she had to go off on a tangent about how much of a disappointment I am and how writing and artwork isn't gonna get me anywhere in life cause I suck.

I also asked someone I've liked for a while out...

He said no. With capitals "NO".

That does wonders to one's self esteem.

We have testing this week, too, which suxxors a lot. ACTs and PSAEs and STUPID or something...Too many freaking initials for me to even comprehend. This is what I get for being born a year later and earlier! ::shakes fists as the seniors and sophmores::

But we get half days from Wednesday on, so that's pretty sweet. But it's also crap, cause nothing good comes out in the theatres until next week (FREAKING VAN HELSING BABEH!!!) and all my friends have prom and significant others and yadda yadda yadda. Me? I get to stay home and scrounge for ACEN money and think about how many cooties boys have because I've been jaded...::grumbles::

I ordered books...but they're still not here....so I'm sad...And they're good books. One of them is the supposed journal of Abraham Van Helsing (So I'm obssessed, Hugh Jackman's hot, and monster movies kick ass, yo) and I want that! I also ordered "I, Robot" cause I saw that Animatrix thing and there's a movie coming called the same thing and robots are koo...

Yea, okay, I'm done. And I'm not so pissed anymore, cause high school boys are stupid and need to be dragged on a rope behind the bumper of an SUV at 2138734 jillion miles an hour.

Big hugs and thanks to everyone who supported me during all that bad stuff. I luff you guys!!! ]]> ~Dragonrain http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/2270353/ http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/2270353/ Wed, 21 Apr 2004 18:20:07 PDT
Long story short: My boyfriend dumped me for some girl he was cheating on me with, and she's saying "It all happened so fast!" and I wanna smack them both. "It all happened so fast!" is something you say when you're friend gets hit by a car, not when someone asks you out while freaking dating someone else! ::angry sizzle:: Honestly, why lie to me when you know what you did and you KNOW that I know? There are rules for dating, you morons, and you should know that if you break them, especially if I'm involved, someone's gonna get really hurt, emotionally, physically, or both.

And what's worse, this has been going on for a week or more, and neither him nor her had the gall to tell me. The girl told one of my closest friends, which was really STUPID, who then told me. Luckily, this was over the weekend so I could get my anger under control, then I talked to some of my friends at lunch who really know the girl, and they all agree that it was so stupid of her to do this.

I then proceeded to call the boy after school that day and bitched him out completely, in addition to an email that I sent him and he never bothered to reply to. I don't yell when I'm pissed; I talk in that unnervingly calm way that freaks out everyone, but it didn't work this time. He denied freaking EVERYTHING, giving me all these bullshit excuses as to why he dumped me, picked up her instead. If I hadn't been on the phone, I would have smacked him across the face, punched him in the stomach, GRABBED AND PULLED if I had confronted him in person.

He hasn't spoken to me for three days since, and he's been avoiding me. Yeah, like that's really solidifying your claims of innocence, ex-lover boy. And the girl won't even look at me when I see her; she just looks at the ground or stares off into space when I try to talk to her. That's not exactly spotless behavior either.

He has work tomorrow, and I walk by there on my way home from school. Maybe I'll just drop by and see why exactly he hasn't wanted to apologize to me for all that he's done.

Sorry that this turned into a rant, but I think that all the friends that I've made on here should know why I haven't really posted anything of substance or talked that much lately. I just haven't been in the best of moods because of this shit and I'm trying to get it resolved without killing anyone. ]]> ~Dragonrain http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/2216441/ http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/2216441/ Tue, 13 Apr 2004 16:03:42 PDT
And I have no pictures either....Why? Because {points to self} "Idiot didn't know there was film in the camera and screwed it all up by looking despite the fact that there was a frickin lil symbol that said there was!!!!" {smacks self} Oh well. I'll just get more film and randomly take pictures at school...but that probably won't happen either...I'm lazy......and school suxxors...

But on a totally different note....

I HAVE CAMO PANTS!!! Omg, they're sweet. Now I can put on my camo shirt and pants and run up against a wall and go "YOU CAN'T SEE ME!!!!" then run away again cause I'm nothing short of insane. xD!!!!

And that is the exciting life of The Neco. ]]> ~Dragonrain http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/2174212/ http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/2174212/ Wed, 07 Apr 2004 18:55:41 PDT

Friends are coming over tomorrow and I'm ambushing them with a camera...And you will not have a notebook to hide you !!! ::cackle:: We're going to the park across the street cause parks are the roxxors. xD Watch as I probably kill myself jumping off a swing....

I finally spat the gauze out cause I was half choking on it most of the time and just let my gums throb all the hell they wanted.

I went to bed around 2 last night...that's in the morning...and woke up at 7...in the morning. My mouth still hurt like hell, but "Clue" was on Comedy Central and I was like "omg, yay!" and forgot the pain for 2 hours. And even now, after taking painkilles which do NOTHING to ease the pain, my mouth hurts and my gums are swollen and I'm not in a good mood. Waaaa, I hate spring break. ._.;;

If I don't get some relief from all the achyness, I'm gonna go medieval on someone...namely the doctor who decided to gut up my gums to get at the sassa frassin teeth in the first place. I can't even bite down without pain! Aaaaa, I wants me some more novacaine...

And I can't freaking see cause I misplaced my glasses!!! Curse my inferior vision!!!

I'm gonna go play Drakengard now...I think everyone's had enough of my rantings...O.o.... ]]> ~Dragonrain http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/2111121/ http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/2111121/ Mon, 29 Mar 2004 18:47:10 PST are so very sadistic....

No other news on the battlefront that is The Neco's life. A few skirmishes here and there, but one more day, and if I can get through that, then me and Jessi get to go guy scoping at the mall. Oh yeah...heartbreak sucks, but it's always a real esteem booster when one your friends drags you to check out hot guys.

Yeah, if anyone has an requests, go ahead and propose them. I have no motivation to come up with my own ideas, since I just want to stab people lately. So yeah, requests are good. I can get em done over Spring Break with my oodles of time not spent dealing with stupid people.

Two days and counting. ]]> ~Dragonrain http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/2032001/ http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/2032001/ Wed, 17 Mar 2004 17:31:19 PST [link]

I have to say though, there are still some people that are held in very high esteem. My friend Mewmyuu is one of them, and she just made my day when she sent me this hilarious spoof on her Moonlight Elk picture on her page, only Elk was replaced with the cast from our joint comic, SD Comix. I almost died laughing when I saw it, and that made my feel a lot better, so I'm probably gonna print it out and tape it to my backpack to share the stupidity. The good stupidity, that is.

So I started this new story thing, which I may or may not post, since people tend not to read...but I'm working on this huge picture of a scene from it (that will be written at one point...). It's gonna take a while, since I gotta draw a kitty, a big kitty that there are very few actual photographs of, and a bunch of people. I'm not really worried about the people, but the cat...Let's just see if The Neco can pull this outta her ass, eh?

And on that note...

Brian> Okay, insert column A into support slot B.
Peter> Hehehehe, that's what she--
Brian> If you say "that's what she said" one more time, I'm gonna pop you.

God I love that show. ]]> ~Dragonrain http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/1995117/ http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/1995117/ Thu, 11 Mar 2004 18:39:47 PST
This just seems to be happening more and more often nowadays. It's making me wonder if the people that I called my friends are even worth hanging around anymore, given the way that they treat me whenever I'm there. I'm not a mean person, I'm honestly not, but it's when people push my buttons and treat me like shit that I tend to turn into a bitch and snap at them for doing so. Call me crazy for wanted to be treated like the person I am, but honestly, is it so hard to treat another human being with respect, or is it just too hard for them to look at me as another person? I don't know what the hell is going on with most of the people in my school, but I'm getting sick and tired of it, and I'll be damn glad when they all leave for Spring Break. I'll have enough to deal with without them complicating the matters with their asinine behavior.

I'm sorry that this turned into a rant, but I'm sick of people at the moment. Just one of those days that started out really great, until I learned that one of my friends that told me he was clean, and would stay that way, came to school the days that I was sick, and then denied it all when I confronted him about it. Great to know I'm trusted, guys, really.

More fuel to the theory that People Suck. ]]> ~Dragonrain http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/1986216/ http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/1986216/ Wed, 10 Mar 2004 10:24:35 PST
But much as I'm enjoying my day of no school and no sickness, I have to go see a surgeon at 4 to look at my mouth. I'm getting my wisdom teeth out over Spring Break because apparently, they aren't coming in straight. Joy...

But I must have happy thoughts. Happy, happy thoughts, just like my happy, happy drugs...

Happy Thoughts List!

1. See new Johnny Depp movie on Sunday (he's so dreamy)
2. Hellboy - April 2
3. Van Helsing - May 7
4. I get to go to Acen! Woot! (Thanks Mewmyuu!)
5. Writing new stories (how fun!)
6. Spring Break (So very far away........)

Not really in order...but it's a list anyway! Keep thinking happy thoughts and maybe my karma won't come and kick me in the arse. ]]> ~Dragonrain http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/1980825/ http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/1980825/ Tue, 09 Mar 2004 13:11:16 PST But the good thing is, I didn't have to go to the poetry workshop 6th period that was I unprepared for. Bring on fiction, stupid creative writing teacher!!!

I have a project due tomorrow 1st period, another project due 2nd, a lab to make up 5th, a test 7th and I'm probably gonna die in Math in 8th. Why must school hate me?! And why is Spring Break three sassafrassin weeks away?! And why isn't summer here yet!?? ::rantrantrant, bitchbitctbitch:: Okay, I'm better now...

Technically........I shouldn't even be on the laptop right now, but eh...I don't have anything new to add, but I'm working on some stuff (slow as I be) and should have something up within the next week...or....five...Eh heh. Go me...

Now I should go and be healthy...::hits self:: Be healthy, damn it! ]]> ~Dragonrain http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/1957715/ http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/1957715/ Fri, 05 Mar 2004 15:35:33 PST
I never really realized how depressing Final Fantasy X really is, and now playing it for the like....8th time or so, I realize how incredibly sad it is. I guess it's different because I've played Final Fantasy X-2 (and still haven't gotten 100% completion, damn it) and to see them all happy and oblivious....Wow, it's just depressing. And I'm at that one part in the game, where Tidus and Yuna...yeah...That's not a fun thing to see, knowing what'll happen. Yeah...Damn you Squaresoft! Make happeh games before I beat you with my beatin stick!! ::shakes beatin stick::

I put up that one picture I was griping about when I was sick. It's one of the few non-human main characters in my story Demon Sleeper, besides Tevern and Tikho (who ain't in it yet), but s'all good. Like I said, I'll probably make a character sheet with all the characteristics of the buc things. Yeah, I gots no life...

....Yeah, Final Fantasy X is depressing...good game....but sad... ]]> ~Dragonrain http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/1946650/ http://Dragonrain.deviantart.com/journal/1946650/ Wed, 03 Mar 2004 17:01:05 PST
I put up Chapter 3 of Demon Sleeper and it has a cover page with pissy Tevern! Yay! And I shaded it in a new style too, which is fantastic. I decided to try and make a cover page for each chapter to reflect what was going on, but that's probably not gonna happen, since I get lazy and tend to several things at once, so yeah...Still, it's good times.

And now I should probably sleep...cause...yeah...I've been deprived...and sadly enough, tomorrow will be the second day of school I've missed all year for sickness. First time was for my gimpy knee that I pulled in gym and teacher still doesn't believe me about.

Sleep!! More fun than a stick!!! ]]> ~Dragonrain
