will be used for fanart and owed art at the moment and also perhaps to my chapters still. Not sure if I'll switch to the other account after the book is done. But SnowGuardian will be used for my personal art, meaning vent, characters and maybe few fanarts. :'D So if you want to watch me there, feel free to do so and if not... you don't have to.

Next week, not this but next week, Nebraskon is going on... Last year my sister spent there $300 just in the three days. This year, she's paying for sure. But she volunteered me giving our parents $40 so they won't get bored waiting for us since the con is one hour away this year in Omaha... >.<; Then her friend is coming also who's on dA . I'm hoping this year we'll get tons of pictures and post them on dA, the ones from last year weren't that good... So you never saw them. XD I was planning the whole year going as Nuuskamuikkunen... but never got to it. D: Maybe next year when I'm perhaps in Creative Center.

Today I'm planning on finishing most of the things I owe, most likely just 's heroc, I just need to add more color and background it. You have no idea, how many times I have re-did the heroc. XD Practice makes perfect...

Want to be still features, comment saying so. ^_^

Features still stay... ;D

Today, I had three tests at school, yay... I most likely failed or closed to failing two of the tests. I'm bad at taking them and having three in one day, which have a real big grade in the book makes my stress levels go even higher. T.T; So because of school I have pretty much no time for art and writing to do it correctly, at least to say. The digital part of the sketch/art dump is half complete, I just have to place some commentary there. XD I'm in the middle of the next chapter of Hope Wolf Saga: Forgotten Twelve. About 10-13 chapters to write more... I don't have to worry about the epilogue since I already wrote it!

Also, since almost everyone is having a Twitter... well I have had it for a while now (wanted to keep up with few actors/podcasts and such) Now I have one as well: [link]

Please follow me there, when I have time and the art owed done, I'll open my requests only there for those who have a Twitter. xD Only 1-3 at a time. I really need to finish those arts as you can see at Twitter. D:

Random Journal Question
If you could have any animal/creature as a pet or a friend what would you choose? No characters on this one...

<sub>I would choose a lioness as my friend, animal friend. x3 I have always wanted some kind of a big cat as a pet, but that's not really safe but this would be kind of a 'fantasy world'.

Who would you choose?</sub>

Me and my random titles from a song I was listening a while ago and it stuck. XD But anyways, school's killing me pretty much at the moment. Test after test so soon, just few weeks ago it seemed like it was summer. This leaves no room to do art or few of you that read HWS, no new chapter for a while. D: And this year, I need to get my hours in to graduate which means for those who don't know I need to volunteer for 20 hours by January-ish. T.T;

And to top all of that, my right leg is failing on me again. I can't walk that well and when I'm going down the stairs, my legs start to wobble and shake as if I'm going to fall down. This started ever since my P.E class began, I'm the slowest in my class because of my leg argh... My legs are so bent and in pain too. Fun fun...

I got some card stock paper finally, I was looking for it at Best Buy but found it at Wal-Mart. xD So expect some traditional art as soon as I get to buy some Prisma color pencils that I have been itching to buy after hearing how good they are. Also from work someone was fired who everyone hated, finally. I have been waiting for it forever it seems like, hehe... I can jump up and down now for him, he did that when someone got into trouble and he was the assistant manager. Grr...

I'm starting to write my second series on my no-computer time which will be on plain paper. I haven't gotten much done on it though, hopefully I will so I will get the characters down here. So far it will be about a guardian from what I got doing my "Find your Guardian" and the human world. Yah, that's all but... I'm open for trades as I get the prizes done, so request now if you wish... thank you. =3
<sub>Random Question

If you had two wishes, what would you wish for?

For my answer, I would wish for lots of art supplies and to get rid of my accent. Yes, my accent since it just brings questions for me from others. "Where are you from?" "How long have you been here?" "Why did you come here?" "Do you like here better than in Finland?" etc... etc... :'D How about you, what would you wish for?

<sub>Random Question Which one did you like better? Digimon or Pokemon?

I 'stole' something that few of my friends do for their journals, hehe, meant to steal this June, somewhere around there. Anyways, I love Digimon still, I have been meaning to draw some fanart for my favs like Gabumon/Biyoumon/Guilmon/Gomamon/Tailmon/Patamon. I have the Digimon Rumble Arena 2 for xbox and I'm really good playing Guilmon. x3 He's so cute. Squee... I also love Wizardmon, he look's like Nuuskamuikkunen. XD</sub>


Not that much has happened to me lately. xD I have been 'dead' on dA and I have been on Subeta instead. D: Here's my main page: [link] if you have an account there already. I used to have an account there years back and I never really logged on. I had an angelic Kumos too... named Slashed but now someone else took the name. -sigh- And I have opened my commissions there too, if you are interested.

Next Monday, I get a day off of school, so that will be my art day to finish the contest prizes. For now I have a contest entry to finish off. I hoped to redo it to another one but I wouldn't have time now. Also I have few things on my list of arts to comment on still, for weeks they have been there. u_u;

Something odd that I have at the moment is my left arm. I really can't move it that well, I can just keep it closest to my body without making it hurt. I have had that for a week, every morning it has a new pain and in the evening it's just fine, I guess I just tore a muscle doing something. xD

I'm not sure what else to say... I'm preparing for an art dump of both digital and traditional for each. I made this one cute kitty for my sketchbook. =3 Mrr... Also, I'm starting to re-do refs for my characters and my HWS characters especially, I don't know when that will be done. >.<; Argh... The pain... And I'm too lazy to change the things below where I'm at with them. XD

So... I have been "gone" from dA for the few days... >.<; On Thursday and Friday I was working at Pizza Hut which is turning into a Wing Street, great. :<

But onto what I have been doing for the last two days. So, my family planned the yard sale and we did it, here's the results.

First Day(Saturday) About 6 hours in the heat with not much water = $0
Second Day(Sunday/Today) About 6 hours as well, rainy and cooler luckily = $17.50

The first day, we had two "potential customers" who didn't find anything in the yard sale interesting. Today we had few coming by, I believe three of them bought something. Two people came from my work place, though. xD It was funny... But, you have no idea how much stuff we had out there, plenty things to carry. And after we were done today, I carried most of them downstairs by myself. D:

And do you know what's the worse part of this? We are doing it again next Sunday. So we'll be carrying all of them back upstairs from the basement and back downstairs what we won't be able to sell.

But one funny thing did happen, in one of our backpacks we were selling... Urmm... it was Milla's bag by the way, there was a always wrapper. XD It was clean though... the mom of the girl put it back into the bag before the girl saw what it was... Ah well, I laughed about that for sometime out there. We were funnily blaming Milla for scaring the customers away.

My family is poor at the moment, I have some old stuff that I could sell but I know no one would be interested though, we have only some dollars until Wednesday and we haven't been able to pay few bills since lack of money. I'm getting my largest paycheck next week though, I can't wait. <3 I'm saving it for the Doctor Who series, I'm planning on not going to that Germany trip after all, I haven't even started saving for college, yikes.

Create a character for my novel/s Contest here: [link]
-------------------------------------------

If you wish to enter the contest you have until tomorrow morning, when I wake up and I haven't gotten a note to extend the contest a bit, I'll judge and post the results on Sunday.

I'm wanting to do different kinds of fanart for different things. I'm currently thinking of doing something for a show I really love. <3 Can you guess what it is? Some might be able to.

I have been working the last few days at Pizza Hut to get extra money. Today everyone there wished me happy birthday and were making fun of me being 18 so I can do some things legally. O_o; Even my mom was at it. D: Eww... Today I tasted the Pizza Hut's wings for the first actual time, I usually hate things with bones but those wings are the best. <3 I just had some, saved from work. Yum.

Yesterday I was standing in my room and I saw the bathroom door open widely. So I kept my gaze at it if something else happened. Then I hear something move near by bed. And I turn to my bed and see my perfume roll on my bed to just the edge of it. There's no way that the AC could have done that. It was top of my book higher up a bit and it just flew 3-5 feet towards the bed. And my pillow was in its path too. There's no possible way for it to just do what it did.

Also, in our bathroom, a lotion thing(rouch and small) flew from the shelf that had like this block thing so it couldn't just be pushed. But it was picked up and thrown to the floor into the hallway and it didn't even go to the sink! Flew like 3 feet, about. Argh, it's freaky here right now. D: I like ghosts but this is just too much for my mind to handle how it could have happened otherwise. Those darn ghosts are after me now. xD

Do you have any ghost stories to share? x3
