Next payday I bought the console and Tales of Vesperia in one go... I love that thing to death now <3

I haven't drawn anything or gone on the internet in days XD
I've already beaten the game but when I got to the GRADE menu I only 1.6k in grade :'D. So I went back to my previous save file and instead of going to beat the boss I ran around getting GRADE

I will have 10x EXP and SP cost 1!

lol, its killing me.

But holy crap.

Never before in any Tales games have I gotten any costume titles, but in this one I have them coming out the ass! I didn't even get any until I turned around right at the save point before the boss and started wandering around for GRADE.
I thought you didn't do that I RPGs?

God, I can't wait for the second play through... I'm going to get all the titles and get that flippin' 'True Knight' title!
mhahaha... Yuri looks so sexy with his hair up
_____________________________

I now own all 3 next-gen consoles! I thought my life would be complete with this but when I went over to my parents house for Christmas I got to play my bro's 360 on my Dad's 50" HD TV....
Oh god, I don't ever want to play anything on anything else but that TV ever again!
I think this one will take more than one paycheck though XD
But come the end of January and I'll have a little less space in my living room!

Between work and club meetings I've been using all my down time to just relax and browse the internet.

But recently my roommate and I bought 'Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World' for the Wii and we've been playing it nonstop. Its so addicting @__@.
The new characters, Emil and Marta, have this agonizingly horrid romance going on in the story. Maybe they get under my skin so horribly bad because I'm older now and teen romances(especially really badly portrayed ones) just don't appeal to me. Anyway, my point is they can go die in a fire for all I care.
The fact that we dreaded character interaction between Emil and Marta so much that we'd spend 10+ hours leveling up in a quest dungeon before actually going on to complete the task says a lot... especially considering that we'd do 6-7 quests in a row.
If I ever have to visit the Sandy Wind Cave again I think I'll just cry.

But the game makes up for the characters by giving you those fancy quests and letting you catch monsters to level up and evolve Pokemon style!
We got to level 50 just before the halfway point in the game, and our favorite monster-wolf --named by the game 'Quenstedite', who we affectionately call 'Wolfie'-- was at level 95 by then.
Oh the pure ownage. I don't think I've spent so much time leveling up, synthesizing or item hoarding so much in a game that wasn't a MMORPG.

So that's basically rekindled my love for Tales games. Technically I've only ever played two, not counting Dawn of the New World. Those were the original Tales of Symphonia and Tales of the Abyss, the latter being (in my opinion) the best RPG in the history of the world... storyline wise.
So yeah, I've been visiting fansites, reading articles, saving so much fanart I don't know what to do (I have 976 files on my TotA folder D: ) and being an all around nerd.
I plan on playing all the other Tales games one of these days, but part of me is afraid that one will replace TotA in my heart and I don't want that to happen.... I keep hearing people compare one Tales game to another, saying their favorite is the best one. It doesn't help that TotA seems to have such a small fan base even though it was so good. I've heard talk that it was because it was made for the PS2 exclusively and most Tales fans only owned Nintendo consoles.

Argh, when will people learn to get over this lame console war and just but all of the systems! That's what I did and I look forward to playing Tales of Vesperia once I save up enough for the 360 and complete my console collection.
....
...

I'm going to stop rambling now since I really don't have the patience to write this much XD

I'd elaborate more, but I'm supposed to be heading to work in a bit and I don't have time to make a full journal entry XD
Oh... my artist block is gone.... its been replaced by an inability to draw anything else but Kekkaishi fanart Its to the point where I'm on the verge of writing a fic and/or a fancomic.
Though my acute procrastin-itis kicks in as soon as I start either XD

I have such a strong urge to draw, but everything I put down on paper looks like shit; I'm not even kidding (I've drawn stick figures better than the shit I've been cranking out lately)

ARGH! Its infuriating! My mind is so blank and devoid of any originality and artistic flair! I can't think of anything. No poses, no gestures, not even a quirky expression on a characters face!
I'm pretty sure its because my total and utter lack of any communication with anything or anyone artistic other than myself. Everything is so fucking 'BLAH'... My mind is so fucking empty! I feel like a retard, like seriously mentally handicapped!
My mind stops and stutters, pauses and doesn't complete any thoughts anymore. When someone asks me a question it takes me a whole 5 seconds for my mind to even fucking start up!
I have zero interaction with people, absolutely nothing to engage my mind. It feels like I have a half rotten brain in my head, like its about to start oozing out of my ears and nose any minute.
I need to become original again.
All this anime, manga... anything cartoon-ish; I'm getting so fucking sick of it!
I enjoy the storylines and the in depth plots of the manga I read, and I do wish I will one day be a comic artist... though my complete lack of ambition and my total lack of knowledge on the matter makes it seem impossible at the moment =_='
ARGH, I need to do some fucking art! Not drawings; ART! Something to assure me that I still do have a creative mind, something original, a little spark of SOMETHING that at least sets me apart from other artists (though I can't fell I can even call myself something like an artist at the moment)

When I see other people's works of art; not just drawings but photographs, music, sculptures... something that really shows that person's talent it makes me want to fucking cry because I can't even understand it anymore!
I think shit like "oh... thats pretty..." but I don't know why its pretty, I can't think anymore! It feels like this big cotton wall is dividing up my mind, I can kind of see through it to the other side but I don't know whats there...
Does anyone know what I'm talking about? Do I even make sense anymore!? Argh! I need a break from the internet, a break from TV and a fucking break the this shit-ass hick town in the middle of fucking nowhere, where nothing happens and the people are just fucking zombies!

It starts out in a little village in a valley, locked in an almost perpetual winter. They mostly farm animals; particularily a species of very fuzzy cows. There's a mideval theme, and a kinda sort of a magical theme. There used to be magic... about 100 years ago, but the King decided that people would be better without it and sealed away the ability for people to utilize magic (some how)... yeah... he's not exactly mister popular. But what can you do? He's the only one that retained his magical abilities, probably on account of him not exactly being human and has be the king for hundreds of years. Some people are getting miiiighty sick of him actually and are plotting to kill him... but first they have to figure out if its possible to do so XD. This comes in later....

The story's main character is named Thomas, has a 'terrible secret' (GASP!). Should anyone ever discover it, it would ruin his life completely. He'd loose everything, his friends, his job, he'd most likely get kicked out of his little snowy farming village! Thomas, it would appear, has a longing for things frilly, lacey, soft, cute and possibly pink. He often wonders what he would look like in a dress, and blushes at the thought. He also sees his male friends in a slightly 'different' light as they see him. No, he's not gay. You see, Thomas' real secret is that he was born with the complete lack of male genitalia, instead nature opted for a nice uterus and a pair of hooters. Yes, he is really a she.

The reasoning for this is that in this world a woman's place is at home, managing the money and assets, raising the kids, scrubbing floors, walls and dishes (there's also a reason for this. I don't feel like explaining it though. Its not really sexism... its just tradition.) Thomas was actually married off by her parents at the age of 16, she just wasn't cut out for it; she ditched and ran away. Wanting more excitment in life she, well, abandoned her gender and any intentions to persue that part of her life, as relationships would be quite impossible in her new situation. But for her, it was worth the sacrifice.

Okay, this story does NOT revolve around sexism issues, oppression or ANYTHING like that. Feminists... are not exactly my favorite type of people. Just had to clear that up.

Anyway, Thomas is seen as an outcast. Usually 'men' her age (she's 19 now) are married and have a family. She avoids physical contact for obvious reasons, and people would definately describe her as femine male'.
Of course she's not as physically capable as real men, but she can pull her weight on the farm. While she is an oddball almost everyone likes her because she's nice, polite and helpful to everyone. No one suspects anything at all.

The plot finally kicks in when Thomas's boss is identified as an insergent, plotting against the king, as well as a great deal of her buddies. She's caught up in it and they all are forced to flee the village to join up with the main rebel forces in refuge. So she's stuck traveling with a group of men, trying her veery best to keep her secret, as a secret. Eventually, way down the line she's discovered, but she's too far in for them to consider leaving her behind and they come to terms with it. Thomas has to come to terms with the gender she abandoned through out the journey.

They finally join up with the rebel forces, by now her friend's hate for the King has influenced her and she decides to join up as well. Believing that their fighting for justice against the Kings tyrany and are representing the very people oppressed, they're all filled with foolish righteousness. Things eventually lead to a face to face confrontation with the King himself. Thomas finds out things aren't what they seem at all. Things aren't black and white at all and this new perspective causes realization to dawn on her that she, and the rebels, are completely in the wrong. After confronting her friends, and following the ensuing argument. To make up for her folly she becomes a mole, working for the King.

Yeah, turned 17 on the 31st of August... I can already feel the freedom of teenhood (is that a word?) slipping away. I have nooo idea what to do for a living. Maybe I'll just work and live in 100 Mile for July and August and save up some cash, see a friend and shite. It always annoyed me that the only jobs that you ever really are told about are: Doctor, Dentist and Lawyer. Then in High School they throw you a curve ball; Teacher!
Yeah... since none of those things interest me at all (plus I could never afford the courses) I really don't know....

I hear Alberta is in need of workers, but I'd rather not leave BC and everyone I know, but Queersmell sucks balls.

I've drawn a few more pictures, am I going to post them? Not likely, maybe in a month?

On the weekend my dad took me up to the city and got me a scanner for an early birthday present so I can finally scan in all those pictures I've wanted to. Though I've have the thing for 2 or 3 days I still haven't installed it (I'm a hardcore procrastinator >w< ) I guess my excuse now is that I don't have any proper inking untenciles to ink my art so it's all sketchy and pencily... I'll probably upload some of them in scraps. I have enough money to buy some nice inking pens but the only day I can drag my ass down to the art store is on a Saturday. I have to babysit my younger brother and sister on weekdays until the evening by then the art store is closed and then on Sunday it's closed all day too. Too bad for me I'm a procrastinator and I sleep all day most Saturdays >w<

I'm thinking of just dragging me siblings down there with my anyways, I doubt my little brother has seen the sun for days. I'll probably hook up my scanner today too.
Oh, I found this great web site (an MSN group thingie) with a shit load of scanned comics on it. It has:
Spawn
Street Fighter
JLA
Batman
Flash
Green Lantern
Night Wing
Supergirl
Superman
Superman/Batman

Wonder Woman
Cable/Deadpool
Captain America

Ultimates
Quite a collection XD. An awesome read too, I've caught up with the Teen Titans (not the cartoon version), The Amazing Spider-Girl, I'm in the middle of The Ultimate X-men and I'm currently reading the Ultimate Spiderman. I'm not going to post the link, but I'm sure you could locate the site if you googled it. It's a great way to occupy time (and procrastinate installing your scanner X3) ]]> ~Genuinely-Fake http://Genuinely-Fake.deviantart.com/journal/8429804/ http://Genuinely-Fake.deviantart.com/journal/8429804/ Mon, 10 Apr 2006 16:30:25 PDT Ever since I read the chapter 222 "No Shaking Throne" I've just been dying to draw Ichigo sitting on a throne, wearing a crown and robe, but also wearing his bankai clothes with a sleepy/lazy expresion on his face leaning lazily in the throne. Then above his head, dangling by a hair, is his bankai sword, only white (those who're up to date with the manga knows whose that sword is >.o ).

Just like that bible story where a sword was dangled above that kings head by a hair but it didn't break or something. This of course fits perfectly with the theme that is just ending (for now >.> ) in the Bleach manga D: .
Curse my limited drawing skills! Curse my inablilty to draw someone sitting down!

So I'm asking you talented people out there to do what my hands can't!
I'd really like to see a picture like that, please send me a link if you can, and don't take credit for the idea please!

Shinto Legend on the Creation of the World:

At the beginning of the World, there is one Being by the name of Izanagi. After a visit to the Netherworlds, he used water to purify his eyes, and thus, from the left eye, created Amaterasu, while from his right eye, created Tsuki-Yomi. Amaterasu was the Sun Goddess and Tsuki-Yomi the Moon Goddess. Finally, Susanowo the Storm God, was born from Izanagi's nose.

Amaterasu and Susanowo argued and fought each other for supreme power. Susanowo finally went on a killing rampage to prove his strength and Amaterasu hid in a cave in heaven.



Similarities between the Legend and Uchiha Itachi:

Susanowo - Itachi, like Susanowo, went on a rampage to prove his strength, although Susanowo did not went to the extent of wiping out his entire family.

Tsuki-Yomi - The Moon Goddess. Itachi's technique to brings the victim into a time warp zone where there is always a bloody red moon. Legends also has it that the Tsuki-Yomi killed Uke-Mochi, the Goddess of Food (Amaterasu's close friend) after she offended the Moon Goddess, making Amaterasu so angry she vowed to never see Tsuki-Yomi again (explaining why there are days and nights). Tsuki-Yomi's act of violence could also be the inspiration for the red moon in Itachi's technique.

Amaterasu - The Sun Goddess. Itachi's black fire technique to burn through barriers, also known as Great Shining Heaven.

I got an odd blister on my left thumb last week. I, of course being lazy and bored, picked at it. That was not the best thing to do.

So here I am, with a deformed thumb (still usable and not painful, thank god) but the nail seems to not want to stay on. Yes, my thumb nail is slowly falling off (damn me and my boredom!)
But all in all I don't really care I'm just thankful its not my drawing hand.

And now that you've read that pointless and probably disturbing little info that you probably could have gone without reading I have to say that I have some work on my account!
Yay, I finally posted something!

I was sick all week so I had nothing to do so for 7 hours or more each day I stalked around the galleries adding almost everything pretty to my favorites.

Becasue I'm such a hugh Itachi fan I found many, many beautiful pictures of him ~SWOON~
I was lucky enough to find WALLPAPER *squee*! Its pretty hard finding, or at least I find, Itachi wallpaper on google... so I was happy.

I'm probably not going to be posting alot of my art works on deviant art, or anywhere for that matter because my sister owns the scanner and I don't use it much. Also she is going to art school/college/whatever for a while taking her computer and scanner with her, woe is me.

But on the up side I may be able to make myself an ID card before she leaves so I'm happier.

I also need to make me an avatar... which I am horrible at =_= so its not going to be fun.... oh well..
