I HATE my brother's morning class. He decided to take karate at 7AM at the morning for whatever reason and with these paper-thin walls I have to hear him bang around and get pissy at my mom all the time. He doesn't even usually make it to class anyway. XD

Well, big changes, most of them that hurt, others which have made my life better. I'm a permanent Idaho resident until I come up with the money to get the hell out of here and move back to Seattle. I'm in love with that city, I left my heart there.

And the people I can call true friends as well; I was looking back on old journal memories as I lay awake and realized the growth that has happened. Interesting time-capsule to say the least.

My friends Jacklyn and Nathan are gonna come up this weekend probably, thank God; I miss them terribly. I'll have to work a buttload but I guess they don't mind too much, we'll have fun at night.

I will be flying home to see them next month 'cuz she's having wrist surgery and I'll be taking care of her.

Then it's mega-saving so I can do the French class trip to Paris over spring break, and also the college dancers' trip to Utah (if we fundraise enough). Phew.

And in between all of that is college. I didn't do well last semester...but I'm not going to let it slow me up from graduating this spring. I honestly can't tell you what's going to happen after that, I'm pretty lost career-wise (and what school to get my B.A. from now, for that matter).=\ As long as I'm staying busy, it's not so bad, I suppose.

I feel somewhat betrayed living out here though. My former sweetheart up and decided he was never ready for a relationship, and didn't want to put a rift up between his parents by being with me (who hate my guts when all I've been is kind to them). He's very confused and going to a different college, and thinks I'm going to sit on my ass three years and wait for him with no hanging out in between. I hope he finds what he's looking for...and that the bitterness will fade. My friend Nathan is convinced he's totally head over heels for me, and hasn't been denying it to anyone who asks. I feel pretty confused right now because I don't want to lead him on, but I don't want to lose his friendship either. I don't need a rebound relationship for any reason, especially for someone who I'd never want to hurt...I hope he finds his true angel.

And my brother jacked my tablet, so no art for awhile. I've got a life to live, and it's going to be beyond these walls. If any of you have an interest in dirt-cheap work commissions though, please let me know, I need all the money I can get for the Paris trip!

(1) Be more outgoing. I'm really quiet naturally, but I get the feeling I give people the impression that I'm unapproachable.

Which sucks when you're in a new college. Therefore, I'm going to keep myself EXTREMELY involved in class, college clubs, jobs, my church, etcetera. Surrounding myself with people = me being more comfortable being myself.

(2) Get in the best shape ever, seriously. I'm not overweight by any means, I'm pretty athletic actually. But I feel like I could be doing a much better job in that category for someone my age. Plus I want to look amazing at my old college reunion~!

(3) Get my A.A. degree in advance. I have the opportunity to graduate in December if I keep pulling 19-credit semesters like I was in fall. This way, I can get out of community college and get going with my dream of a big university.

(4) Be more cautious with my money. I want to make three different plane trips this year (Kansas, San Francisco, and Boston), and also come back to Seattle in April for Sakura-Con (by train). I haven't been good handling cash the past year and a half (more like saving it)...

(5) Be the adventurous person that I am. XD I've held myself back alot mostly because I don't know anyone willing to be adventurous with me, but I've figured out now that it's up to me to experience life to the fullest.

...the first two goals have pretty much been on my agenda for a loooong time, and only now am I going to act on them seriously. w007

First things first: do something crazy to my hair on Monday!! XD And finish all those requests on RRN...o_O;; Ouch.

Tell me your resolutions if you have any. Enjoy what's left of break and BE PRODUCTIVE!!

I LOVED THE MOVIE AND I LOVED THE PLAY!!!

I have to admit, though, I wish I had never seen the movie and waited until this night when I could see it live. It was OMGWTFAWESOMESAUCE. Like, the stage...holy crap, I don't know how they did most of the special effects! And the PROPS. SHEESUS. The actors were pretty good, I'm very picky when it comes to voices and I don't think anyone did a better job then Emmy Rossum in the movie.

*doesn't like wavery soprano voices* But hey, they all had good voices.

We had pricey tickets off to the side. Couldn't see some of the stage because I'm short.-_- If I could do it all over again I'd choose center seats. AND PAY FOR ORCHESTRA ROW. Dude, those passes are expensive for a reason. And worth every penny, plus some.

I wish I had cried...I used to do it every time I watched the movie. My boyfriend's sister was BAWLING.

He didn't like it as much, but oh well. We get to see the Sweeney Todd play next on Halloween!^^

I dressed up as the Phantom. That's going to be my next ID.

Why do people keep faving my crappy old art? o_O Crapcrapcrapcrapcrap~ Why the FREAK does this have 27 favs [link] and my new Blossy picture has only 17? I don't get it...*considers deleting everything*

I know I keep procrastinating on actually putting effort toward a good CG. But seriously, I'm working on some projects. Go me~

Now go watch the Phantom of the Opera!!

I don't really know how to tell you this, but our romance is over. I think I realized it July outside of Chicago and I saw you sit on my avocado plant. I'm sure you're ashamed enough to understand that Extreme Makeover sucks. I'm returning your ring to you, but I'll keep your collection of butterflies as a memory.

Apologies for the lack of updates. I HAD completed a contest entry a week ago, but Photoshop jammed on me before I could save it.

I'm glad I actually drew something, now I'm inspired to keep going.

Won't be able to this next week because it's midterms (and I'm going to a wedding), but I'll squeeze something in.^^

Looking to lose 25 lbs and joined the gym, wish me luck.

In other news, college is going pretty well.

Aced Speech so far (not speaking though, OMG SCARY), everything else is good too; I'm not too pleased with my math progress thus far, but it's not like I'm going to fail it or anything, just not get the 'A' I want.

I still dunno what I want to do yet!!

I'm a full-time caretaker of the house here on top of being a student, so I doubt I'll be getting a job...roommate please? I'll make sure not to burn the place down in my expeditions as a beginning chef.-_-;;

Sorry for submitting mostly scraps, I'm working on stuff, no worries. I just can't ever be satisfied with what I draw anymore. XD

Anyway, shout out to me if you want to collab or art trade or anything, I need to be drawing on a constant diet.

~FlammableAqua This was a triumph/ I'm making a note here... http://FlammableAqua.deviantart.com/journal/19408294/ http://FlammableAqua.deviantart.com/journal/19408294/ Tue, 15 Jul 2008 11:24:49 PDT
...FOR THE PEOPLE WHO ARE STILL ALIVE!!

Hey, so yeah, still on DA after three years. Three YEARS?! HOLY COW. O_o I turned 20 yesterday. CURSE AGING!

Oh well, so far being two decades old doesn't feel much different. Yet.

So. School was really hard. Very unorganized. And they don't even have the sense to get accredited yet. I was breaking my back over 9 classes of very demanding material in 6/9 of them (20 credits was required at least, you couldn't drop below that). These teachers were also teaching in the academy, so if you were struggling and needed help, it wasn't like you were given much attention...which I thought was pretty unfair, especially for struggling freshmen.*points finger at herself and like nearly everyone else*

Seriously, there were only two at the top of my head I could think of who thought we were given too much to handle (they were both very awesome teachers too!

), and actually gave more thought to our work then to just slap a number on a test. Everyone else was like, "OMG U MISSED 1 SUBPOINT U PHAIL."

In Philosophy, literally 14 people out of 32 were failing, and like 6 other students had D's. That's a little unacceptable, isn't it? And then the teacher didn't get the hint until a month before school was out (one three-page long complaint letter later, that actually never got to him because people were pansies >_< but he somehow heard about it). But even so he gave us the final exam from HELL!! There was like one person I know who actually got it...I should find it and post it sometime. It's just like...

Not to totally bash the college though, I had a lot of good times and friends who I'll probably keep in touch with for life after that one short year.

Yes, we didn't have much to speak of in social life, but it was fun while it lasted! Hilarious videos, movies, dancing, volleyball, trips to Kansas City, the full circuit.

All the good stuff. I'm going back next year to visit for graduations! I also did learn a lot, stuff I can take outside just the classroom and work, and I'm really grateful for that...if I was younger, I'd return, but...eh...

They've been people who've been trying to convince me to go back, but after having near straight A's through high school and then preceding to hit rock bottom after trying HARDER then in high school isn't going to sway me. Time to move on, because seriously, it's getting late and I'd rather not be 30+ when I graduate college.>_<

So. Next year, it's Idaho for me. Which is pretty cool, since

moved to Spokane. Yay.

I can't wait, I'm so excited to be going to a REAL college, and it's BEAUTIFUL! Well, it's just a little community college now, but it's on the beach and everything. It's a pretty good restart.^_^

Besides that, just sitting home and working. Watching movies. Spacing out...I really miss my sis.

Still working on housing for next month.

Oh yeah! And still drawing! You wouldn't think so, right?!

Nah, I have a few bigger projects I need to serio... ]]> ~FlammableAqua OMGWTFBBQ?! http://FlammableAqua.deviantart.com/journal/14860113/ http://FlammableAqua.deviantart.com/journal/14860113/ Sun, 30 Sep 2007 17:27:02 PDT
...

Hehe, well, I promised I'd come back, so I came back.

;; HOW IS EVERY1??!!1

Uh, yeah. So I'm in college now, actually all the way out in Kansas. It's pretty tough...I came here not knowing anybody, living in a dorm without a roommate and taking nine classes.o_O But it's pretty fun now...there's a lot of studying but there's some actually pretty cool people here. OMG I GOT A CAR!! It's a Camry, runs amazing, and me and the dorm girls are always going out, it's fun.^^ I had a LOT of crap to go through because it's a strict college school, and let's just say I'm not the conformist type.>D Heh, oh well, adjustment good.

I really miss WA though. I worked at my job through the whole school year and summer. I got to know SO MANY PEOPLEEE I LOVE THEEEEM~<3 Yeah, had a lot of experience there...at least they said I could come back to work in the summertime (and over Christmas break), because I don't have time to get a job here.

I miss my bestie too --->

This past year has been...interesting. Hehe, not really too productive artwise, but I got some new stuff to put up! I'll get around to it shortly.=3 Oh yeah! Went to SakuraCon too and cosplayed as Shia-chan from Pita-Ten.

That was fun. Didn't sell anything, but hey...who knows. Maybe next time. Right now, I'm hoping if I can balance my time well enough I can look into doing commissions, but with my skill probably not.><

Ano...yah. 1142 messeges...o_o Thanks people!

I'm hoping I can catch on pretty quick, seeing that I haven't been around for a year, and that I don't have Internet in my dorm room. Uh...I think I'll start working on artwork again. Feel free to IM me since I'm updating my IM systems.

Love you guys, take care, and drop a comment if you're still alive.

First Edit. 9:21 PM <3 RRN is spazzing out. Urrgh.

Second Edit. 9:51 PM. I don't get it. Every other webpage I try works! So frustrating!!!XP

Third Edit. 10:28 PM. Yes, this is TMB live.XD

I don't get it, the whole page freezes up whenever I type the address in manually. Even when I click it on Google. I suppose it's some kind of bug. I've emptied my cache/cookies twice and nothing happens.

So I'm sorry I can't fix it...I phail...

Well, on the brighter side of things, my manager called me in for a shift today! Which was awesome...I took Thurs-Mon off thinking I'd be sweating it off in Idaho. Obviously that didn't happen.*sigh* So all I had to look forward to was an uneventful weekend. BUT; one of my fellow courtesy clerks ended up in the ER with some breathing difficulties...I hope she's alright. Haven't seen her in a while.

LOL I had only woken up about 10 minutes ago before I got the call that they needed an 11AM-8PM fix. But there I am, cutting corners to get out the door on time.

Being Friday, the store was pretty busy. Though the weather cooled down today, so there was no rush to buy 39893742 gallons of ice cream.XD

One thing I can say about this job is that you sure don't have to fish for compliments (not that anybody does).:shock: You have gorgeous eyes, nice skin, pretty hair...blahblahblah. What is with that? Just let me do my job already.><

It's sometimes unnerving...XP There was this one 20-ish person who randomly said while walking into the store, "You're attractive." WTH man. o_o He said it like he didn't give it any real though. I was sorta mad.

I've seen handsomer persons.

Apparently the payphones don't work outside. But 6 mins was valuable enough to me.

Oh well, rereading blogs is fun.

I couldn't find a ride to Idaho for that hike this year.

However...

...my mom, bro, and I are going on a sixteen-day tour of THREE countries!! Spain, France, and Portugal, to see the biggest shrines like Fatima, Lourdes, and Avilla. My Dad has to stay at home because of work. But WOW...I'm so excited!

Just made this decision today because the Rome pilgrimage hasn't had much activity going on. There might be a chance I could pay my way if there are other girls going.

But for now...

THREE MONTHS AWAY!

had.

Um...sorry for spamming your journal inboxs AGAIN.^_^;

Good news: My family went to a Civil War demonstration for a couple hours, and it was pretty awesome! It was 90 degrees outside, though, and you'd get hot just by looking at the reenactors in their uniforms (especially with those hoop skirts...O_O). There were lots of vendor booths, information outlets, authentic sleeping tents, ect. AND a battlefield, which was pulled off very well considering the small size of the place.

Renaissance faires are cooler. Eh. Either way, I got some pictures with my crummy camera...

[link]

Mini-canon! Too bad it wasn't for sale.

[link]

One of the medics. No, that's not real blood, sorry.XD

Blargh@camera zoom lens.-_- There were at least 7 canons on the South's side.

[link]

Men in uniform ARE SO HOT.<3

[link]

The Yankees waiting for their attack command...

[link]

These dudes were so talented; they said they had to train their horses a LOT to get them used to the gunfire.

[link]

Couldn't get a great shot of the canon fire because everytime one went off I literally jumped a foot.XP

[link]

BEST picture. I made a mod of it too...

[link]

Yupyup.

...and then my camera "died" just as the main charge started.

I dunno; it wouldn't turn on until it was in the car, maybe it got too much sun or something.XP

Bad news: ...if you ever want to work in the grochery business, be prepared to repeat any scheduling issues ad nauseum. Otherwise, no one's gonna PAY ATTENTION TO YOU. BECAUSE THEIR COMMUNICATION SKILLS SUCK.

Take, for example, today. In my application form, I mentioned the days I could work or not work on. Those days were: No later then 5 PM on Mondays and Wednesdays (for taekwondo), and no Sundays. WHICH they were perfectly fine with. Three weeks ago, I heard one of the managers repeat to an assistant that I could not work at those times. The following Monday, she put me down for a 3-8 shift, and I had to reafirm my times all over again word-by-word.

Guess what? Today, I got a call from the store saying I was late for work.

It's so weird, I think, that something so important keeps getting lost in the shuffle.

I just hope that they don't think I'm being lazy on Sundays; they always need help on the weekend. I usually don't get many hours during the regular week, my longest shifts are usually on Saturday. So if I did accept Sunday times, I'd be making sooo much more cash. I'd be happy to work then, but I have religious obligations...I get done with Mass early on in the day, but the rule is not to do any... ]]> ~FlammableAqua TMB is NOT girly XP http://FlammableAqua.deviantart.com/journal/9158630/ http://FlammableAqua.deviantart.com/journal/9158630/ Fri, 23 Jun 2006 11:08:27 PDT The Mood:

Awwwdude, I neglect my DA too much. The days are just getting so nice out, I can hardly help it. Thank you for all the pageviews/favs/watches. Should probably start the kiriban thing up again...

RANDOM QUESTION: Are you going to learn something new this summer? I'd love to hear 'em...I'm thinking of photography or Japanese (on disk). Wahooo.

How was everybody's Father's Day?

I stayed up making a card until 3 AM.X_X But my dad loooved it. Then the guys in the family + moi went target shooting. Except the trigger was REALLY hard for me to pull.>.> I wanted to shoot the .44, though there was so much kick in that baby I was afraid I'd drop it, so naaaah. Finished up playing a few games (Canasta anybody? I WILL RULE j00). It was mucho fun.=3

For the past two weeks my taekwondo instructor was on vacation, leaving the teaching job to us black-stripes (me, my younger bro, and Belinda and Kelsey). Man, I didn't realize how hard it is to teach white-belts...really, they were the hardest of the four classes we did!o_O Because there was not a whole lot we could show them without the instructor around.

Brings back memories...(some not so great XD

...luckily, everyone had caught up on forms long enough. So we didn't have to be TOO creative.LOL

The worst it got was the first day. We had a game of freeze tag, followed by a relay race. JP almost smashed the mirror, OMG.o_o And left a big-arse skid mark on the floorpads.

The kids were behaved, for the most part...that's what so nice about karate: it teaches discipline. So they were able to handle our first attempts at teaching smoothly. Everyone did a great job. The instructor came back yesterday and was impressed at how far they progressed. Yay!

I learned a lot from teaching. Mostly that you have to be specific and direct. AND loose. Also, how many floor exercises you can squeeze out in three hours.

But it's made me faster!^^ Next I hope to improve my sparring stamina...

My grochery job takes up alot of whatever free time I have. I couldn't be happier, actually, since my summer otherwise is going to be otherwise uneventful. I am kept very busy. I think I've gained some muscle after pushing so many carts.o_O There's a lot of nice people helping me out; I almost don't care if I get paid or not.

I am happy to discover that I am growing more and more open with new faces.

I dunno...it has just never been a strength of mine. No longer do I want to draw farther away. It is partly because of my job, although it makes me feel like a broken record. ("HI HOW ARE YOU TODAY PAPER OR PLASTIC YOU HAVE A GREAT DAY XD!!!")

And...other factors are the wonderful friends who want to talk to me, even if I do not have much to say. Those who are loving enough to look past a silent exterior, and in return find a willing heart. As time goes on, I realize more and more how valuble you are to me. Love you all, no matter how often I see you.

I'll be gone next week on a no-speak retreat in CA. Haha. I'm soooo nervous...all the priests are going to be picking on me since I'll be about the youngest there.o_o; ACK!

My 18th birthday IS ALSO COMING UP SOON!! Wow...I'm going to be legal, how cool is that.

I seriously need some gameplan.XD I'm thinking either hanging out at Enchanted Village or EMP in Seattle with my homies would be gifts enough.

Yeeep, I'm killing my inbox. Sorry, but there's no way I can go through ALL of these, it will be easier if I just visit everybody's galleries. SORRY.

SO FROM THE TOP. Wow, it's been a long time since I've made a journal. Only a few things going on currently since I returned...

I caught my own 3k pageviews when I logged in on Easter! [link] And I also have 50 watchers now.

Thanks for your awesome support everyone!

Interesting how this week worked out. I wasn't thinking about jobs before the start of it. But here I go, apply for three and interviewing for one thus far.^_^ I'm looking forward to starting at least one since I can't go to Mexico this year.*sigh*=S

I have had this dang awful virus for 22 days.>_< I still have a bad cough that slows me down a bit. However, I was able to get through my Taekwondo test alright while leading the class in from of my instructor and three other senior blackbelts. So awesome. I'm excited that I will be able to test for my blackbelt probably at the end of July.

I've been going for three years already...although it's hardly the end when I get my first degree; it'll actually be a new beginning.^^

Anyway...I also wrapped up one college trip three weeks ago. It probably is the one I'll be going to after next year; it has a great history. Spencer Tracy (actor from the 50's) went there.=3 It's pretty small, nothing I'm used to...but the education's higher then standard college. So I'll be putting in my two basic years there, then transfer probably farther east. Who knows where. It's nothing I was planning, I will just have to see where it goes now.

And last of all, I DO have an active game going. I have finished my side of the work. I am just waiting from a response from the programmer ( :rolleyes: ). The release date got set back from April 1 to May 1, and now to May 3. Obviously THAT didn't happen either, so I'm getting very frustrated.

Look out for it soon though!

My first college visit is less then two weeks away. Then there's prep for the SAT again, the liscence test (which I hope to cram in

), getting back on track in Algebra...and Lent. So I decided to give up the Internet for the whole season (of Lent). I hope I can do it, and that some of you can understand why.

I will be back April 16. That means I miss my DA aniversery

, but that's ok. I'll be back with some (hopefully) improved art and a chart of how I've been doing after being here a whole year!

Many <3's, looking forward to see some of you guys' lovely pics when I'm back!

Thanks for your support so far!

Welllll, I sure will be busy this spring/summer. My first college trip down to Oregon will be here in less then a month. Then the weak before the SAT I'm flying to Kansas to check a private campas there. Cool thing is that I was born in Witchita.

Haven't been back there since I was...one day old...

;;

In June there will be two "vacations." I'm so excited! The first one's gonna be in MEXICO!!!

OMG! It was a little out of the blue...but's it's been confirmed. I'll be seeing all the traditional Mexican shrines and stuff. And about ten days later we're going to California for a retreat of sorts (really, it's one where you can't talk for four days...O_O). Ehwell. I'll be sure to take pics (when I get a new camera

).^_^ Then back to Cali in July for ANOTHER college walkthrough, for two weaks.

Yep, four plane trips this year.

Oh. My. GOD.

It's funny because we only have been on airplanes every six years or so. And now I've got four. Yay.

I'm putting off my main manga stuff for a while to try something new. I'm going to try to make a GAME. W00T! Like, one of those ren'ai dating sim games they have all over Japan. I just happened to stumble across this program that handles these types of games ([link]) and even for someone like me who doesn't know any coding, it doesn't look half bad. The tutorial covers enough.

Here's an expression chart of one of the characters:

[link]

LOL you get to control a girl, so I dunno why I made this now.8D

Anyway, sorry I haven't been as active checking art recently. I'll get back to it now.

My last cavy has just passed away in my arms.

She was very special to more then just myself; she was born on my 12th birthday in 2000 and was the runt out of a litter of four, but she outlived them all. She was picked by

and lived with her until...2004? I think. She came back to me to live with her sister, Scarlett, and they became the best of friends all over again.

Scarlett left me on December 8 from kidney diesese, which is also what her sis had...it might have been inherited from her mom, I dunno.

That was one of the worse days of 2005 for me, which you may see here: [link]

It was only about three days ago that my pet started signs of going downhill. But now, it's over. I'm just glad that her death wasn't as tramatic on her as was Scarlett's...but...it's so hard to watch an animal die (couldn't get a vet to administer euthanasia)...she was such a chipper little girl right up to the end.

I'll miss you Pepper. I hope I'll see you again someday.

Tough two days, but they paid off. Yesterday I was in Seattle for some last minute shopping, and, with a Seahawks game in town, I got swamped.o_o CROWDED. EEEEaah. And then LATER, I was in choir for midnight services which really began at 10 and ended at 2 AM.

After getting to sleep FINALLY in a hotel at 3:30 and getting up at 8, I wasn't that prepared for Christmas, you could say.

But it was cool; we had a late present-opening (like at 1 PM). Lotsa neat stuff, ((like Pocky...OOO, Pocky))...nothing better then my CobaltFlux DDR PAD!! OMG, I wasn't sure I'd get that...I'm soooooo happy, it works great! And then I got the Mario DDR, too...my kind of Christmas, yes.

But I hope that you guys upheld all the real meanings of Christmas...family, gratitude, peace, and religion if that's in your life as well.

Anyway, I'm going to busy in January. I got my Pre-SATs back and did fine in everything except math, so I'll be taking some time on that. And I'm attempting to get everything required for my driver license. Plus manga.

I dunno, I've got the last week of the year to think about it all.^.^

MERRY CHRISTMAS, HAPPY NEW YEARS, AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!

We usually get snow late around here, though, so hopefully there will be a second flurry coming our way.

Back from vacation at last.^^ It was awesome (and strange) going to Disneyworld in NOVEMBER, since I'm used to being freeeezing.=S It was like 80 freakin' degrees down there, haha. We were staying in the Animal Kingdom Lodge (SO BIG, like 2,000 rooms

) where you could look out your hotel balcony and see animals like giraffes and wildabeasts, and that was a vacation in itself!

We were BARELY able to explore all four parks and a water pack, we missed some stuff...because everything was so big (walked about 6 miles a day

). And I went on Tower of Terror NINE times and it never got old.

I totally <3 that ride.

Oyeah, and the World Showcase at Epcot is FIVE-STAR-GREATNESS. They had some sickingly-kawaii stuff at the Japanese store; I wish I'd brought a year's worth of cash to get it all, not fair.

Here's the San-X one I got!

Isn't it cute?=3

I got back in time for Thanksgiving, which was great. I hope you all had a nice one too.

I am mucho inactive.

My art block keeps coming back. I haven't drawn in such a long time.

I can't even work on my comic plans. Cleaning up the request sketch to color, or trying to. Something goes wrong every time I try.-_-;;

The PSAT went OK for me...mathmatics has always been my toughest subject. Even with a calculator I had to guess on most everything, not expecting good scores...at least the English was easy. I got done almost ten minutes in advance. Huzzah. This doesn't matter though, but I hope I did OK.

Two good things: We're got a hottub installed!!!

And I'm tellin' ya, it's amazing. The deck recently got replaced and there was room to spare for this! We're got a good view of the Cascades in the backyard too, so that's another plus.

And in a month's time I'm heading to Disneyworld.=3 Weeeeee.

I'll see if I can force myself to do something soon. Get rid of my ugggly ID or finish stuff, mayhaps?

Anyway, I stayed overnight at their house and came home yesterday. But last night DUDE I was so sick; I couldn't stop throwing up. My stomach's still convulsing now.>.<;;

Must have been food poisoning at the fair. Bleeegh.

*complaincomplain*

I'm going to be taking the pre-SAT in October. Gotta get studying...

So I finished my instructional drive course yesterday! HOORAH.

Torture is finally over. I barely made the final test due to ---what else?--- parellel parking. Aw man, NOT COOL. At least I'm on my way for the lisence test...I can't take it until mid-December because I got my permit so late (parents wanted me to wait on it, they thought I could take the test right away...

...bleh). But I have all the practice time in the world, so that's cool with me.

I'm going to be gone almost all of this upcoming week. I'm going to a friend's birthday bash a few hours away for THREE DAYS.

Aw yeah, it's going to rock. Her birthday was the same as mine, too (except she turned 19). Then when I get back Tuesday night, gotta start packing for a all-weekend hike up in Idaho (so I have to leave Thursday morning!!!@_____@ <~*stress*).

And this thing's for 50 miles.

I have so many sketches I gotta get rid of...my room's turning into an unorganized art studio, which isn't exactly appreciated.-_-;

Hopefully with some luck I can get a digital camera cable and upload some senerey pics from that trip. Finding one that fits my camera has been such a pain.>_<

I have to do the watch entry when I get back.*procrastinates yet again*

Seeya!

I got grounded from the comp last week, so my subscription ran out on me without much useage danggit.-_- I'm still searching through all the messages, like 150+.O_O

And........I turned 17 yesterday!X3 Get on your knees and worship me...

...just kidding. I already got my tablet, but then I also got a Total Training for Photoshop set and a Seattle Mariners purse. Didn't expect that...and then

, my bro and I went to see Howl's Moving Castle (VERY good movie...not as good as Spirited Away, but awesome nonetheless...go see^^). A nice day.

Only one year until I'm an adult; the last three years have gone by so fast...I can still remember being all wannabe goth last New Year's.XD Crazy stuff. Since I was 13 I was always looking forward to getting away and living on my own, but now that I'm almost staring it in the face, it is a little intimidating...

...I remain with communication problems. People always getting on my case about being so quiet and shy. That's understandable...but hy do some of them tell me they think it's cute? Just to make me feel better? I despise that notion.

Needless to say, I'm also not in a relationship, I haven't been in one in some time. Which is fine; I don't need anyone to "survive" (like some certain individuals seem to think that's true 9_9), though it'd be nice, since there are other people I think about. Blah.

I'm getting better with this whole confusion, hopefully by college I'll be over the entire hill.

Now I need to stop being such a procrastinator. No more rants.XD

Had another drive test today; I failed pretty badly last one, due to my inexperience.

But I got by with flying colors this time (MEGA-YAY). Only 4 more hours of instructed driving until I can take the exam, wish me luck. I'll need it.

I caught my own kiriban...oh well.

Oh well: I did a lot of DA browsing today noticing artists' anime styles and finding that they almost look the same. I hate conformaty in anything, but now it's making me consider my own drawing technique. Example: When in lineart form, you will find that usually hair's very simple, while I'm scribbling on every single thread.

I think I might be trying too hard. I'm considering trying to draw more basic stuff for a while, until I feel comfortable...expect some experimentation.

To make this show more entertaining LOL: Just got finished being out on the road for 1½ hours!

Which is a good thing of course; I wasn't tired at all, except now I have a NEEEEEEED for SPEEEEEEEEEEEEEED. Cure my addiction.>.o

I'm in the second week of my driving course now, and so far things are going smoothly. Um, I haven't test-driven with the teach yet, and I'm sorta worried that I might be spoiled with all the nifty controls on the family Odyssey (compared to the student car).

So summer's here. Hooray.=3 I've got lots of planning ahead.

Wild weekend so far. When I got up Friday morning I discovered the interior of the house being repainted and paper EVERYWHERE. So I just stayed in my room for the next four hours...there's a whole other section to be painted yet on Monday, and next day the doors are gonna be replaced. Went to the Batman Beyond at the Rose at 7 and the movie ROCKED. GO SEE IT.

Saturday: Bro and

went to the mall, and everybody mooched off me.LOL I'm 0\/\/3d 16 total from today. I bought a buttload of manga, 10 books (good thing Waldens has discounts), so I'll be entertained for a whiiiiile. And found the new Shojo Beat YES!! It looks better then Shounen Jump by far.

And then we played some DanceDance Revolution. Hahaha, it's such a funny game, and yet I'm getting obsessed with it.

I've only played it three times; I didn't try it until about two months ago because I thought it was so crazy...wait, I take that back; it still is.

But, yeah, I'm still on beginner mode. Usually I only practice on one song (Smile.DK - Butterfly), but today I tried some "faster" stuff and almost toppled over out of exhaustion hehe. Good thing I went swimming today.

There were these AWESOME guys playing it at the arcade. It was the first time I'd seen anyone get above a C. They were like grade B, playing on HEAVY mode.

Of course, when we asked how often they played DDR, they said every day. For a year and a half. For who knows for how many hours (we got to the arcade@11 AM and they were still there when we left@3:30). Figures.O_O

But they don't compare to THIS dude and the others he features: IMMORTAL WTF.[link]

And yes, tomorrow is Father's Day...here's to you. I couldn't find anything for my Dad that he doesn't have. Had to go with a card again. Happy Dad Day to you.^^

I gotta get me a PS2 just to play DDR.

I know I've been mistaken
But just give me a break and see the changes that I've made
I've got some imperfections
But how can you collect them all and throw them in my face

But you always find a way to keep me right here waiting
You always find the words to say to keep me right here waiting
And if you chose to walk away I'd still be right here waiting
Searching for the things to say to keep you right here waiting

I hope you're not intending
To be so condescending it's as much as i can take
and you're so independent
you just refuse to bend so I keep bending till I break

But you always find a way to keep me right here waiting
You always find the words to say to keep me right here waiting
And if you chose to walk away I'd still be right here waiting
Searching for the things to say to keep you right here waiting

I've made a commitment
I'm willing to bleed for you
I needed fulfillment
I found what I need in you

Why can't you just forgive me
I don't want to relive all the mistakes I've made along the way
But I always find a way to keep you right here waiting
I always find the words to say to keep you right here waiting

But you always find a way
To keep me right here waiting
You always find the words to say to keep me right here waiting
And if I chose to walk away would you be right here waiting
Searching for the things to say to keep me right here waiting

What the HECK man?! For the last three days I have been trying to get on my profile page and everything appears blank! It's so...so

worthy!*hates the stuff* Anyone else have this problem?

Other worthless imformation: I FINALLY convinced my syncro coach to start working on my own solo ruotine (or however you want to spell it danggit!). I was on the verge of quitting because I wasn't getting enough emphasis on what I wanted to do...rather then getting stuck with a novice group at the most five years younger then me doing ruotines I would be too old to perform with them. But so, my coach worked with me almost three hours yesterday.

Dizzying. But at least it's almost good enought to perform in Seattle next week with a good piece.

It's one of my favorite songs remixed recommended to me ages ago by

Only Time by Enya. Fortunately, I didn't have to learn too much at once; most of the movements were from an old piece I was doing with the novices, they just got transferred, so it's easy most of the way through. Just need to perfect it on Tuesday and Thursday and that's it.

All that work though + everything ELSE I did this week burned me out on math though; I couldn't concentrate at all, thank GOSH my tutor noticed and told me to take some time off!!*breeeaaaathe* We're ahead of where we should be anyway...

Also, my tablet order should be processed today. Yay!

Oh, as you might have noticed, I left this window on all night.

YAY! Yeah, finally saw Episode III today and it was AWESOME!! Aw man, I was stoked; I am a huge Star Wars fan, and I was so disappointed that I didn't get to Seattle to see the latest installment at midnight Thursday...it would have been the thrill of a lifetime. I was totally ticked that everybody I knew had seen it except ME and were spilling the plot...oh well, it's over now. Ep III was the real clincher, it made up for the last two movies...Darth Vader IS Darth Vader, alright.

Only one part didn't meet my expectations however [:::WARNING: MINOR SPOILER:::], when Padme dies seconds after Leia and Luke are born: DIdn't Leia say in Return of the Jedi that she remembered her mom? Is it a Jedi thing?

I dunno...just go see it, you won't be disappointed!^^

Yesterday at Big Splash was OK...only went on two rides because *ahem* others decided that games and food were more important.*ahem* Went on most of the water rides, spent an hour moshing and that was sweet...first time I was in a mosh pit actually.*weird* But then it started pouring so most of our crew decided to take cover an hour and a half before it was over. Got back at 11-something, fell asleep at 1...woke up at 6.>_<;; And realized that I am owed $20 in loans from the day before.

Also watched Ep II today...remembered how bad it was...will watch Ep I tommorow, even if it's worse...will save up for the whole Star Wars soundtrack collection because it's the thing I most enjoy about the series...

Just finished part one of what will be a full seven days of mayham. I just got back from a Mariners game (which they lost-_-) after browsing the mall for a few hours. I was supposed to be at a syncro performance, but my form was crap with other newbies and I didn't know most of the ruotine. And a Mariners game is 20000 times more important anyway!LOL If you're reading Mik, you went right? How'd things hold up?

Here we go!*deep breath*

Tommorow (or today XD), I might be going to church (which is a full two hours away0_o), and then

and

Then I have taekwondo on Monday/Wednesday, youth group on Wednesday, syncro on Tuesday/Thursday, plus all the school and now algebra tutoring. In further addition, the annual Rhody festivities kick off Wednesday, and the new Star Wars movie's out the day after (

), and then Saturday the youth group's heading to Big Splash YAY!! Oh, and then on June 2 I will be performing on acoustic guitar again for yet another music fundraiser without my teach, but I prefer it that way.

All that whilst I look for Renaissance fares, some more art classes, a tablet, preparation for vacation season, and time to draw. Huh, at least not everything's too boring.

I was SO ticked today...everything seemed to be going downhill since my Taekwondo Nationals tripped got canceled since the airfaire to Anaheim was gonna be way too expensive for just a two day trip. I was mucho disappointed. I was planning this since last year's Nationals ended.-__-

But to "make up" for it (which I sure didn't expect), my dad suprised me with...

...PHOTOSHOP CS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rather freaked, actually...
The Music: Akon - Lonely

The Movie: Mariners game
The Book: Wish Volume 4

At the moment I'm listening to Coast to Coast AM. Any one listen to it? It's a talk show of sorts broadcast worldwide, on lots of stuff...mostly UFOs, science, BigFoot, the paranormal, and strangeness. My Dad has listened to it and its hosts, George Noory and it's official creator Art Bell, for at least five years, and now the whole family knows about it. I can't listen to it much because my radio doesn't pick up the station that carries C2C well...occasionally I can tune in.

Even though there's no rooting out some people who are obviously off their nut, there are many credible folks who can sure make you think. There's disscussion on such topics like mad cow diesese and globle warming that will open your eyes. LOL, recently, George is considering have Keanu Reeves on...yay.

But this show is simply a wide-eye view of man, his universe, and what lies out there (or inbetween, or below, or above) from the curious child in us that wishes to know the mysterious still unsolved.

The website: [link] Find a station and be entertained.

Well...recently, since a month ago, there is this one...um...thing...that keeps calling George every Friday. He claims to be called "Oscar," the son of the devil, who says he is near the time to beginning the Apocolypse. Now, me being *in-tune* to my beliefs, I don't believe the people who call in claiming spiritual happenings and whatnot usually, because they hardly make sense 9 out of 10 times. But sheesh, this dude speaks in the creepiest voice...man, you just HAVE to hear him, he seriously sounds...well..."unworldly." Not your normal sound distortions, no, I say not.

...

The calls have been going on a month now. What has happened is that he said that he possessed a woman named Rachael, and you could hear their voices mingle. Freaky. Even George freaked at that.

So, he's had professional "exorcists" on and talking to Oscar, but it didn't seemed to help. Oscar kept calling in with Rachael, and while it seemed believable at that point, I didn't think much. She must have done something wrong at first to have that happen, right? So I wasn't sure.

Two hours ago, just Rachael called in. She said Oscar finally left and she was fine (I mean, last time she was like in tears). His last prediction was that he'd seize another C2C listener, or so she said. And she said he was still in the area where she lived. Eh. OK, so that seemed to be the final comment, but just now, a regular caller just came on the line to talk about one of the night's preposed disscussions, Oscar just suddenly came on the line!O_O It was all out of the blue, so random, even though the caller was in the same area as Rachael. But their voices were completely different. He made one comment like, "Oscar's still here, George," laughed, and disappeared.

Yike. Almost convinced. I think the reasons are valid now.

It'd be cool if an angel started calling in now. Seriously. Ack. My only fear is demons, they are very real.

Goodnight from somewhere out there...

OK, so Tuesday I was up early for the Vatican election on TV. It did come as a surprise to me that a pope got chosen that fast, but then again, I'm sure it was an easy choice since Ratzinger (or whatever his name is) had been an influence on JP II.

I guess he was the best choice morality-wise (despite the "Nazi" tab he's got on him; he was forced into that, people, yeesh), but he's so old...he's not gonna last longer then five years.

So now the "traditionalists" have a victory over the "liberal" Catholics. Or do they?

What about those "radical Catholics" who don't tolerate much and go against orders to say a Latin Mass? Who look for the worst in everything? Especially about the part concerning ecumminism and got ticked off when this new pope talked about bringing all religions together, eh?

Yeah, well I am one, so this guy doesn't impress me. Nya.

Help us all and all that junk.

Pffffft...sorry, it's my journal. Don't read it.XD

Otherwise, I'm all through on my art projects, so I'll begin

's colab now! I'm going to take my time on it, since I've been experimenting heavily with layers. I've taken so many tutorials, it's scary.

I hope all of them pay off.=]

Well, yeah...I didn't think it would take this long to get things working again. At least it's finally over...or so I hope.

At the present time, I'm saving up for a tablet and an older version of Photoshop...like 6, maybe. I hope that such tools will help me become more then a recreational artist.

Happy Easter to you all.^^

YAH!! I rejoice with me, myself, and I, for I have uploaded 4 devis in one day on an ultra-slow AOL connection. Wow. My eyes hurt...

For the fact that all my stuff is brushed, most likely. I need a layer tutorial.><

I do hope you check all of the artness, though. Three are related to a story (or character; heeh, p33r me, my little fantasy boy

) whose script I haven't even written out yet. I've just been doing the outlines. Someday when I have more reference...

Well, yesterday I competed at a taekwondo tournament. Never should've. Wasn't in good shape. Last Wednesday was the first time in two weeks I'd even gone to class since of my ear infection. My master has the same thing in the same ear, except he caught it on a trip in the tropics. But isn't that weird? All he did yesterday was just tease me about it.

I came in second in forms and sparring. Because I was TIRED and RUSTY, bleh. I needed more practice and I didn't get it. I guess I was fine considering my illness, maybe...

I'm checking in tomorrow with the doctor AGAIN for my ear, still not sure if it's damage or just a very, very, very extended cold.

At least I'm on break. I hope I can see Constantine again w/friends tommorow, if they're not busy. And if I can finish a few homework assignments.

That's it (heck who reads this anyway?). Hope you like the art. I'm still exploring on devArt and finding lots of surprises.^^

Busy again. I've been working on three projects AND an ID. I have no idea about my ID character, I've come up with a few designs, all of them iffy. Eh. I don't like any of them.>< But I have to put SOMETHING up! I'm busy all of tomorrow, so let's say Monday...? Tuesday..? Like early next week. I hope.:worried:

I'm getting up at like 5:30 AM Saturday so I can get to a taekwondo tournament on time. After I got up today@7-something to go to Good Friday services and stayed until 3 in the afternoon. Of course I have no right to complain, but my church if so small and stuffy (and two hours away from where I live)...I'm looking forward to college so I can be near a large church. I've been to only two, but I fell in love with them. So beautiful and serene. AND air-conditioned.

Hope I can get an Easter pic up; it might be late, but that's OK.

Morning! And already I've got a LOT to do. Get ready for a talent show dress rehersal and then make a jump in the afternoon at a Victorian festibal going on. I hope my guitar's tuned OK. I've had trouble with it lately. Pfft, wish me luck!

Bought a few things to entertain me this weakend. I finally got around to Fruits Basket.*cheer in background* Waldeens was having a DVD and manga set for only $14.99, that I quickly took advantage of. Although, the manga's volume 6, so it might be on the shelf for a while, come to think of it...

I also got Wish Volume 1 by CLAMP and Pita-Ten Volume 1 by Koge-Donbo. Both of them are cute, but Pita-Ten's plot's like, "Wha?!"o_O The creator must be pretty hyper, too, mygosh.

And then two AniMinis! They're downsized DVDs with a half-hour's worth of anime on each. Not bad for $3.99 each! Got Digi Charat Panyo Panyo and the first episode of Anzumanga Daiho. They're both hilarious.

*listening to Seattle Mariners, her favorite team* YAY! I can't wait till the season starts, I'm going to their opening game!

I'd say it's about time for an intro, don't you? Sorry it took so long.>.>

TADAAAAA!!!*insert numerous sound effects here*

My real name's Theresa, but I don't like it, so just call me...huh, I dunno. I have many names, and I need to get used to this one. Just find something.

I guess you can't say that I'm new. I have watched this site in the space of bits and pieces over the last three years. I didn't really want to join until a friend suggested. As you can see, I have much to learn. My stuff varies; usually it's anime, but sometimes I go back to my PPG roots and profile sketches. I also do poetry and PSP7 backgrounds. Mm. There's just so many talented artists here...for all those people who work 30+ hours, I salute you, since so far I lack the patience and experience.

I'm in two sports currently: taekwondo and syncronized swimming. I compete in both. And I've been in acoustic guitar for 2+ years (plus piano for six). I'm also taking French with a half-year of Latin to my credit. I want to learn Japanese, but I get sidetracked...bleh.

Love Japanese stuff! My all-time fav anime series is Slayers, only the original three, tho, all the others ones...DISGRACE!!

And I dunno what my fav manga is yet, I haven't found "my" manga, but I do like: Anzumanga Daiho, Alichino, almost anything CLAMP, DiGi Charat (for the artwork), Mars, of course Slayers, And MegaTokyo!

Ah, OK, THERE'S a favorite, even though it's American, it's really fun! Any MT fans be sure to say hi!

J-rock/pop/techno's a beautiful thing. Have a few soundtracks. YAY.

I will be getting a 6x8 Wacom tablet (my first!) *hopefully* within a month as an early birthday present (I've been dying to try one SO long!!), then I hope to get PhotoShop6 and fool around with it. So, safe to say, most everything I deviant will be purely for experience until I know my tools, okie?:3

I would appreciate critique, although PLEASE be soft with me. I'm a wuss, I know. But if you can, just put gently what you think I need to correct, else I just start fuming...><...sorry, but I can't take anything to heart if it's all bash and no benefits. Pu...

Heh, so I'm interested in knowing you all! When you stop by do comment and I'll visit your zone. I appreciate comments, friends, and favorites (if it happens...) very much, so thank you!

I'll get to work on buttons, title pic, and other things. Thanks you for your kind welcome, I feel loved already!
