Thank you both and all those who have spread the good word. <br /><br />EDIT: It's getting worse. Due to unpaid bills her internet connection was shut down, and her phone as well. Even means of communication are falling off, and with it, the means of selling the jewellery she has. We had good plans with several auctions and stuff, but now with her internet gone... <br /><br />There is very little I can do, actually, especially with my salary this month being so low that there won't be much left after paying my own bills. I will do what I can, though. <br /><br />PLEASE, PLEASE HELP US.<br /><br />----------------------------<br /><br />I'm talking of ~<a class="u" href="http://stuartlohe.deviantart.com/">StuartLohe</a>. And the "starving" part is to be taken seriously. There is very little I can actually do, because I'm scraping sents together as well, as many of us do, but perhaps someone needs an early Christmas present, or something very unique for birthday... <br /><br />You see, she's a witty lil crafts(wo)man, making brass and silver and <insert name of the metal here> brooches and rings and bracelets and earrings etc etc, with ancient Estonian patterns and style. <br /><br />But let the goods speak for themselves and move your hearts: <br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://StuartLohe.deviantart.com/art/Penannular-b... ]]></description>

Although last week I spent very much in preparation for our LARP event, along with ~<a class="u" href="http://k2rts.deviantart.com/">k2rts</a> and ~<a class="u" href="http://stuartlohe.deviantart.com/">StuartLohe</a>. <br />Since more than half of the players backed out for several reasons (more or less good ones), we ended up with 5 and a half (NPC) left, along with 2 GM characters. And you know what - we had the most beautiful, intense, intimate and epic game ever. <br /><br />It's impossible to describe. Let's just say that the air was very different from our usual. So - no regrets, except the monetary issues (with Stuart having paid the rent bill and me buying all the food and stuffs... no idea how to pay our own bills or live until the next payday...).<br /><br />Still making jewellery. Still haven't had time to make it to the Loitsukeller. <br /><br />And atm, down with a cold.... <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /> Guess it had to hit sooner or later. <br /><br />And I'm sorry, but my inbox ran over with deviations and I deleted them all. If there is a work of yours I've missed and you want me to see it (I want to see them), just post here, OK, cause it might take me a while to hop into your galleries. There are so many of them.<br /><br /></div></div></div> ]]></description>

I was in the capital (Tallinn) for a few days and I almost accidentally visited one of the oldest and most famous alternative jewellery and esoteric shops, Loitsukeller. <br /><br />Briefly - after a little conversation with the owner I was offered an opportunity to have my own little board for jewellery. She really loved my things (I had a few with me) and all I have to do now is to put together a selection and take it there. No fee from the shop, what I sell, I sell. So let's hope I sell. <br /><br />Newest passion - wire wrapping. I'll try and take pictures today. <br />Busy. Working my ass off and when I'm not at work, I'm either writing for the LARP project or making jewellery.<br /><br /></div></div></div> ]]></description>

I've given myself a promise to move out within this year, so - that's how it's going to be. And yeah, living with as much as 2000 EEK left (for those of you who know about EUROs, the balance is something like 1 EURO = 15,64 EEK), but I'll survive and I'll be much happier than I am now, I am certain of that. <br /><br />The zoo. 18 animals by the last count. <br />The gerbils: Mulder, Sirius and Mephisto (the boys) living in one cage, Sirra, Gandalf and her 3 babies living in another (the white girl is called Shalimah after ~<a class="u" href="http://stuartlohe.deviantart.com/">StuartLohe</a>'s tiefling character and because *<a class="u" href="http://siobhan68.deviantart.com/">Siobhan68</a> told me so <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":p" title=":p (Lick)" />) I'll get a bigger cage from ~<a class="u" href="http://alleria.deviantart.com/">Alleria</a> as soon as I get time to pick it up. Which will most likely happen on Monday, since I'm working my ass off tomorrow as well. <br /><br />The zoo continues with cats: <br />Iti, 2 years old lady, now with 6 (!!!) babies.<br />Stella, a year old female, Iti's daughter and babysitter to her siblings.<br />Hamlet, my starcrossed 4.5 months old boy, Iti's son. <br /><br />And the puppy, Rommi, eating everything that isn't fighting back too much. Size doesn't matter. <br />To general curiousity - which of these animals will join me in my new place - my gerbils, and my kitten. <br /><br />Sowwy, no time for writing. Spare time goes for cleaning, looking after my zoo, writing LARP material etc. I'm hoping things will settle down a little once I'm on my own. <br />But hey, at least I made a pretty picture - <br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/spotlight-left.gif" width="23" height="22" alt=":spotlight-left:" title="Spotlight" /> <b>The feature game</b><br /><br />Stolen from *<a class="u" href="http://lunaticstar.deviantart.com/">LunaticStar</a>. <br /><br />The rules:<br /><br />1- Be one of the first 14 people commenting on this journal entry, and I will add you to the Promotional List<br />2- For each of those 14 people I will put their avatar and three deviations I like from their gallery on the list.<br />3- If I feature you, you'll have to do the same in your journal, putting me on the first place, completing this way the list with 15 people.

It's been all over the DA, but not enough, it seems, since people still do it and get loads of favs and uses (clearly from people as ignorant and uncaring as themselves). <br /><br />And so when I find them, I report them, and until now, at least a half get removed. So I've been happy with the staff. Until now. <br /><br /><i>Your Art theft (General) Violation Report on Premade Fantasy Background was reviewed by a member of the staff and action was taken, marking the report as Need Information.<br /><br />Additionally, the following comment was provided:<br /><br />A reviewing administrator reviewed this report and determined that it lacked one or more vital pieces of information and a responsible decision could not be made as a result.<br /><br />Please file a new report and provide as much detailed information as possible.</i><br /><br />Does the staff view the images reported. If soe, they can find the information in the artist's comments, where it is clearly said that it's been made of sxc.hu and dreamstime images. And I told them so in my report as well. <br /><br />And I cannot report again, because the system forbids it. Case closed. <br />Sometimes I really feel like a fool on a witch hunt. *le sigh* <br /><br />And what amazes me is not this one "case closed" but the tolerance people have against violations when it isn't their own work that gets abused. You know - if you stand up for no one, you'll find that no one stands up for you...<br /><br />*disappointed*<br /><br /></div></div></div> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ <div class="content"><div class="tl"></div><div class="tr"></div><div class="br"></div><div class="bl"></div><div class="fix2"><div class="fix"><br /><br />Hi there!<br />Just haven't had time to update. Some curious folks of course already know what I've done and will be up to, but all in all it seems awfully quiet in here, esp. since I quit doing manips and writing piles of porn edged erotica. *shrugs*<br /><br />I was at Mytofest last weekend, a big historical festival, celebrating ancient times and magic. Most of my time was spent on sitting and beading, and trying to sell my jewellery. That didn't go too good, I sold only a few items. Well, I'm telling myself that the age of the festival is to be blamed, because if people are going around in ancient clothings (most of them history reconstructors) then pretty nowadays beadwork can't sell too good. But my best sell was a trade with the awfully wonderful band Wolgemut - the bagpipe lady got a necklace and earrings for her daughter and I got their signed CD <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> Now Stuart and I have different CDs and we can switch. <br />Stu sold better, because she's got the proper era stuff, and her brooches and bracelets are really beautiful and well made. <br /><br />I enjoyed the festival thoroughly, though. There were many wonderful concerts at night - Wolgemut, Mallamuk, Tzerzy (pardon if I misspelled it, my Polish sucks <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/blush2.gif" width="15" height="16" alt=":blush:" title="Blush" />), MÃ¶irahÃ¤rg. Stu and I are the official werewolves! (read: we were howling at the concerts and it spread!) So now both WOlgemut gang and the Polish pretty boys consider us their groupies <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> <br /><br />I also met an old friend I had lost contact with like...6 years ago and he hung around with us, and now he's coming to my birthday. <br /><br />Oh yes, TEH BIRTHDAY, and this year it's special, not because it's some round number, but because there's going to be a wild party in Meenikunno bog. Some folks cannot make it, unfortunately, but others will and I am certain we'll have great time. <br /><br />Despite all the shit, I actually look optimistically into the future, and feel that life, and people in it, are good. I love my friends. They have not come easily, and some I thought I'd never have and some I've lost within this last year. But all in all, I have won (back) a lot. <br /><br />Still trying to sell my bookmarks and jewellery here on DA, too, but it doesn't seem to work out, really... There's popularity and there's popularity. Oh well. <br /><br />Let it be, the Beatles sang, and they were oh so right. I let more things just be the way they are without fighting my ass off, and I am happier. I guess that's what they call growing up. I'm calmer. <br /><br />To all my friends here and there - I love you, guys. And it ain't just words, trust me. <br />I love you. <br /><br />Peace be with you!<br /><br />M.<br /><br /></div></div></div> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ =<a class="u" href="http://piratelotus-stock.deviantart.com/">PirateLotus-Stock</a> advised me to try and sell my pictures as bookmarks. Well, now I'm actually working on the project. Now I've only to gather some starters money, and then I can choose between two firms. Making bookmarks in Estonia seems not only possible, but also the assistance and ideas I received were very good and kind, and the base price is perfectly affordable. <br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/spotlight-left.gif" width="23" height="22" alt=":spotlight-left:" title="Spotlight" />PRICE: 10+3 USD (3 bucks for the shipping)<br /><br />First orders will take a little time, since I'll have to order them first from the printing company (and that's in the capital - I'm not). <br /><br />So, if you love to read and would like something artsy and cosmic to stick between your pages (instead of your socks or grandma's cat) - here's the deal - NOTE me, and I'll give you my Paypal address. As soon as I've got a couple of orders, I can get the bookmarks from the company, and then off they go to meet you SOON.<br /><br />ALSO, you can choose and put together your own pack of 5. Looking through all the bookmarks available - SEE THE FOLDER HERE <a href="http://mithgariel.deviantart.com/gallery/#BOOKMARKS-FOR-SALE">[link]</a> you can tell me which ones you want and as long as there's five (or more), we have a deal <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /> <br /><br />SEE OTHER PACKS HERE <a href="http://mithgariel.deviantart.com/gallery/#BOOKMARKS-FOR-SALE">[link]</a><br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/spotlight-left.gif" width="23" height="22" alt=":spotlight-left:" title="Spotlight" /> All the money goes to my Independence Fund.<br /><br />EXAMPLES: <br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://Mithgariel.deviantart.com/art/SALE-Nebulae-bookmarks-pack-1-131835137"><img src="http://th04.deviantart.net/fs46/150/f/2009/214/c/1/c1dc10f5e8803c8d169f38ae0a97826e.jpg" width="150" height="130" /></a></span></span> <span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a  class="mature" href="http://Mithgariel.deviantart.com/art/SALE-Artsy-bookmarks-pack-2-131846204"><img src="http://th09.deviantart.net/fs49/150/f/2009/214/b/e/be2e8b815caf10b0bc14c0b20bd161cd.jpg" width="150" height="130" /></a></span></span> <span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://Mithgariel.deviantart.com/art/SALE-Artsy-bookmarks-pack-9-131855676"><img src="http://th07.deviantart.net/fs47/150/f/2009/214/2/6/2600cc2cce20a83a97fe8e3d0570c295.jpg" width="150" height="130" /></a></span></span><br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/snowflake.png" width="15" height="15" alt=":snowflake:" title="Snowflake" /><br /><br />Short explanation of the headline - I'm moving out in a month or two (depends how fast I can raise some starters money). I've lived with my parents for 27 years. That's 27 more than I would have liked, but oh well. The situation has grown intolerable, and besides - I'm not getting any younger. So, despite my very small salary and the economy crisis, I'll be taking this step. <br /><br />Hence every penny I can raise will go to the little fund to help me start off a new. This is jewellery and bookmark sale atm, but for the love of the entire pantheon, if there is something else you want - a manip, a photo, then just tell me. If it can be sold, it's for sale. Also, I'm opened to all sorts of commissions. <br /><br />But here are my beading beauties. DA will have the first chance to get hands on them, before I go to Mytofest market with them. <br /><br />Last but not least - please help me promote this fundraising. The more people know of it, the greater the chances someone orders something. What's in it for you? Well, either you get a much happier me and a lovely item to wear /or gift, or at least you'll get one very happy me. <br /><br />(Prices are in the artist's comments)<br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://Mithgariel.deviantart.com/art/A-bit-of-Sea-earrings-130732001"><img src="http://th02.deviantart.net/fs46/150/i/2009/205/1/d/A_bit_of_Sea___earrings_by_Mithgariel.jpg" width="136" height="150" /></a></span></span><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://Mithgariel.deviantart.com/art/Autumn-ahead-earrings-130943616"><img src="http://th05.deviantart.net/fs48/150/f/2009/207/6/2/62aeba75dbd120f66087b1b040521ee5.jpg" width="115" height="150" /></a></span></span><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://Mithgariel.deviantart.com/art/Autumn-ahead-necklace-130943778"><img src="http://th01.deviantart.net/fs49/150/f/2009/207/d/6/d65a6bbce5de7bbfe20e0bdfd765a874.jpg" width="126" height="150" /></a></span></span><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://Mithgariel.deviantart.com/art/Ice-Quee... ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Had a fun day. A work day, but full of fun, since Margit had a guest from Hiiumaa (that's a second biggest island of Estonia) and we (actually, I) got an idea to go swimming, so TÃµnis drove us to Pangodi and we spent some quality time swimming and jumping around in water.

                <description><![CDATA[ <div class="icon"></div><div class="sepperator"></div><br /><br />Saw both Order of the Phoenix and Halfblood Prince premiere last night.<br />My last pennies went on the Potter movies. <br /><br />Anyways, I liked OP pretty much, and I love HP. Funny AND awesomely epic. (*drools over Snape*) And I don't mind that it was so different from the book, I really don't. It was a good movie.<br /><br />I managed to gather a bit of money, so I got my gerbils a metal joggling wheel. I hope they don't eat this one, else Stuart will never dare to visit me again. (Like she said). Also bought the brats some food. Now they should be safe and sound, and they'll get a new house when I get my salary. <br /><br />Gandalf had babies, but by the morning there were two of them left, badly wounded, so I mercy-killed them. Some of you might know, but gerbils tend to eat their young when they don't have enough space (and it's kinda hard to explain them that their young would be given away soon enough.) Perhaps one good day I can afford a two floor cage, but atm there's four of them in a rather small space, so I can't blame them, much. Sad, though. <br /><br />Working tomorrow, full day (from morning to midnight), so don't go on a hiatus if I cannot respond you in time. Murphy's law that people need me most when I'm unavailable. <br /><br />I really want to finish writing LOST tonight. Wish me luck. (And read the latest update, god dammit!)<br /><br /><div class="footer">Journal Skin by =<a class="u" href="http://thewinator.deviantart.com/">Thewinator</a> and =<a class="u" href="http://keepwalking07.deviantart.com/">keepwalking07</a></div> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ <div class="example-header"><div class="links"><a href="http://mithgariel-stock.deviantart.com/">My stock account</a> | <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://dragcave.net/user/Mithgariel">My dragons</a> | <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.mordor.pri.ee/foorum/">My forum</a></div><br /><br /><a href="http://sanguinesins.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/s/a/sanguinesins.jpg?1" alt=":iconsanguinesins:" title="sanguinesins"/></a> tagged me, the evil thing. <br /><br />The rules:<br />1. You gotta post the rules.<br />2. You have to say 8 things about yourself.<br />3. You have to tag 6 other people.<br />4. Comment on their pages stating that they have been tagged.<br />5. You can't tag the person who tagged you.<br /><br />1. I've been a practising Satanist. Done most of the pretty rituals and stuffs. Why I stopped? Because one good day, my faith ran out. I still think the principals are the most normal rules to live by, ever. <br /><br />2. I've also almost been Christianed and accepted to a rather charismatic group of Jesus followers. The reason why they first did not accept me - I (especially after having read Milton's Paradise Lost) refused to believe Satan is purely evil. A little later they deemed me evil, and there were even punishes for communicating with me. They feared me a LOT. <br /><br />3. I hate 98% of fish (makes me vomit) and I'm allergic to honey. <br /><br />4. I have a keener nose than most people, so I can pick up scents much easily. Mostly it's only trouble, because I pick up the stink where others sense none.<br /><br />5. When I was around 7-8 years old, I was madly in love with my mother's loverman. He was a fancy Russian militarist, and also the first man I kissed. (Being about 8 years old, I lured him to the balcony, the moon shone and there it happened. And no, he wasn't a pervert, honestly. Compared to my old man, he was a real good daddy.)<br /><br />6. I'm a total, utter dragon fan. Two random proofs: my mousepad has a black dragon head on it, ordered from DA, and I play Dragon Cave. <br /><br />7. When I was a minor, a friend and I played detectives - she was Sherlock Holmes and I was a totally made up character, Holmes's sidekick Harry LindstrÃ¶m. Once when playing, we actually came across a dead man. Poor bloke was lying stiff and silent. We tried to pick up tracks of the killer, but of course the police had stamped the ground so full of their own prints that there was not a chance left. <br /><br />8.

                <description><![CDATA[ <div class="example-header"><div class="links"><a href="http://mithgariel-stock.deviantart.com/">My stock account</a> | <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://dragcave.net/user/Mithgariel">My dragons</a> | <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.mordor.pri.ee/foorum/">My forum</a></div><br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/spotlight-left.gif" width="23" height="22" alt=":spotlight-left:" title="Spotlight" /> All the pictures of the Meenikunno trip can now be looked at here - <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://nagi.ee/photos/Mithgariel/sets/213129/">[link]</a> Just press the first photo and go with arrows from there <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /> <br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /><br /><br />Finally a little update on the journal. Thing is, I'm just too busy to write about how busy I am, but I still want to. <br /><br />Well, MOSTLY and mainly I've been working my ass off, especially since I want to rent my own little apartment in autumn. With my old man turning even older and more senile, he's taken a turn to yell at us daily and I simply CANNOT stand to live in the same house with him. I'm sorry mum has to, but she married the dope and never divorced, so it really isn't my fault. The good news is that I might be able to hold some savings from this month's salary, since it was pretty big - and since I'm trying to work hard the entire summer, and maybe sell some old unneeded books and stuff as well, then I'm hoping to have gathered a little starter's money. I am also OPENED TO ALL SORTS OF COMMISSIONS. <br /><br />During the week I spent two days in Meenikunno bog again, this time totally relaxing. There was me, and mah good buddy ~<a class="u" href="http://stuartlohe.deviantart.com/">StuartLohe</a> and my crazy and sweet "boss" Margit with her personal assistant Elise, and my "little" brother Janno. What a crazy bunch they were! And my bro got some serious education about NOT treating a chick in a wheelchair as if she was made of glass <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> (In some time they ended up rallying around, downhill and uphill and everywhere) But still we couldn't go deeper into the bog, which is sad, because it's really pretty but there just weren't enough wide boards. Elise was a total sniper, though, she should get a medal, because there were mere inches from the sides of the wheel to the edge of the boards and she managed to navigate the chair without once faltering, and we all had great fun. And Margit swore that the cabin's couch was better than the one she's got at home. The next day we switched places a little and spent a lot of time sitting in the bog lake (with my brother swimming to a little island and attracting a lot of tourists who fled at the sight of us) and Stuart cooking us pea soup, which was one of the most delicious things ever. <br /><br />The next day I had to be back and I did all the chores imaginable and unimaginable, and I've still got a lot to do, because I ain't finished with editing and uploading the Meenikunno pictures, but at least I got done with those of the Singing Festival: To breathe as one. <br /><br />On Friday Margit and I attended the wedding of our good friends Toomas and Eve. It was great fun, especially since the lady who performed the ceremony had to adapt to the facts that not all people could stand up and the wedding couple had problems walking a straight line because they're blind <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /> It was sweet and the afterparty in pub and their place was very nice, too, and I wish them all the best. PS. Labradors totally rock! <br /><br />And now it's my one and only free day, I think, though I'm not sure since I haven't gotten my schedule yet, and I'm busy with this and that and I should actually be grabbing the vacuum cleaner and going over the floor, at least, because it seems I don't have time for any more cleaning. <br /><br />My kitten feel alienated from me, since I spend so little time at home but I really cannot help it, since most of it is working OR resting from work and I cannot do that at home, not before I have a home of my own. <br /><br />Still, I've even managed to write a chapter of "A moment in time" and I keep promising myself I'll pick up Big City again, but I think I'll do that when I live on my own, because I cannot write in the middle of the night when I've been working all day long and there's no rest here before they're all asleep. <br /><br />So if I beg your pardon for not writing profound comments or just faving and running, then perhaps you understand and take a fav as compliment, which it is. <br /><br... ]]></description>

Most parts of the LARP were really cool, and I thank quite some folks for epic scenes or just being overall sweet with me (and the afterparty rocked big time). However, the general impression was not so good as that of the previous games of the same series. <br /><br />And I grieve of forgetting my camera home. <br />Anyways - now preparing firstly for the Junior-LARP in July, and my own game in October. (Although ~<a class="u" href="http://vampiiritar.deviantart.com/">Vampiiritar</a> insisted that it should take place today! <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":p" title=":p (Lick)" />)<br /><br /></div> ]]></description>

There were two songs which lyrics got added to some strange crossword magazine - Earth Song and They don't really care about us (not sure if that's the title but you know which song I mean). Those are also the only two videos of his songs I've ever seen (or memorized, at least). I remember crying at Earth Song - and I still do. And I learned it by heart, and I can still sing it.<br /><br />There was something about this guy that left no one ignorant (or so I think, at least). I was never a fan, but his songs touched me. They marked me, somehow. He had the touch of River Phoenix and Queen, and Beatles and Urmas Alender. <br /><br />Those who burn brightest die youngest. <br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /><br /><br />On a personal note: I'll be away from internetz again for the weekend, since I'm attending Middle-Earth themed LARP in Sangaste castle. I will be back sometime late on Sunday. Also, I've been working these past two days, so understand if I don't make it to reading and commenting. My to-do list is a way too grand.<br /><br /></div> ]]></description>

There are more the things I CANNOT do. What if I don't want girls in pretty dresses? (Lets face it, there's the majority) I want... dragons. Sexy naked men (and OK with me putting them into boy x boy context). I want firewolves and tiger lords, helmorui, Rye mothers... I want things I cannot achieve with stock. <br /><br />Let's face it - I cannot draw. And learning would take a mad amount of time, which is something I don't have. And I lack the inborn talent a bunch of people have. 4 years in art class taught me that. I'm being honest with myself - the things in my head will never come out of me through a pen or pencil, not the way I see them. Yes, I WANT to visualize my imaginary worlds, but I simply lack the skills to do it via drawing. <br /><br />The third reason would be that I simply don't feel like manipping any more. I've kinda reached a limit somewhere. Don't ask, it's a gut feeling. What I did and which did satisfy me for the time being, does not do it any more. I don't feel or see a reason to do another manipulation just because I like a piece of stock. Gosh, I love SO MANY pieces of stock. That is not the point. <br /><br />I seriously hope I'm making any sense...<br /><br />So, I will not do manips. (No promises, because I know one should never say never.) I will most likely draw something from time to time, just for my own little pleasure. <br />I WILL put more time into photography, which is a great passion of mine, and I will surely write. <br /><br />Above all, I paint with words. <br />So I'm sorry if you watched me for my manips only - I guess it's farewell with you. Those of you with other reasons - I won't be going anywhere. <br /><br />Yep, I do hope I made some sense.<br /><br /></div> ]]></description>

Songs have united this little nation and now, 20 years later, they did it again. <br /><br />I was born '81. We were still a part of the Soviet Union. The system was melting, but still. I knew little of freedom, but once I grew, I began to love the songs. I was 6 and 7 and 8 years old, and my favourite songs were the patriotic songs, I knew them all by heart and I sang them. I learned to play them on piano. <br /><br />By the time I turned 10 we won our freedom, and did so bloodlessly (many other countries were not that blessed.)<br />Yes, we got a lot of troubles and we have the financial crisis, the obscenely rich, the piss poor, lying politics, but events such as the Night Song Festival prove that there is still that spark in people, and in young people as well, those that weren't even born back then. You cannot be nation if nothing binds you, and these songs bind us. <br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://snow-jemima.deviantart.com/art/Estonia-stamp-69856581"><img src="http://fc04.deviantart.com/fs22/f/2007/319/f/9/Estonia_stamp_by_snow_jemima.png" width="99" height="56" /></a></span></span><br /><br />Now and then, when you read the comments, you can find translations, so I ask you - if you seek to understand Estonians, or me, then take time to watch and listen.

LARP plot is growing furrier, and it was honestly one of the most prosperous nights we spent together. <br /><br />DA is good. I keep learning new stuffs. Like today, when I discovered this little tutorial about homemade flash extension, which is highly useful for shooting macro with not so brilliant weather.

Must go to the post office tomorrow and ship it to Finland. Hopefully they can cure her. They better, she's brand new. <br /><br />Got my salary, paid some taxes, now there's no money left, and I seriously mean no money. <br />But I don't want to touch the subject, so please don't, because talking about it only makes me feel shittier. <br /><br />I keep reading HP fanfiction septalogy by a brilliant author called Lightning on the Wave. I swear the entire thing is so much better than Rowling. I've read it once before, and now I'm rereading and hooked once again. Gosh, it is BRILLIANT!!! If I could ever write like that, I'd die happy. <br /><br />Showing off some pretty stuff others have made.

Let's just say that I can relate... <br /><br /><div class="heading">Help a fellow deviant</div><br /><br />Answer just two questions and help out a deviant doing his Psychology research. (BTW, I'm intrigued of the outcome and your answers as well, I find it a very intriguing and daily theme.)<br /><br /><em><br />I'm taking a psychology class and doing a research project and need as many responses as I can get! This shouldn't take anyone too long, any ages and skill levels are strongly encouraged to respond! Just two questions:<br /><br /><br />1) As an artist (illustrator, photographer, writer, musician, or any other creative type person), do you feel that "burn-out" is a bigger factor for you to overcome than for most other people. Why?<br /><br />2) What are some (if any) of your coping strategies for overcoming a period of burn-out?<br /><br /><br />That's it! That's all I need! Thanks so much in advance!<br /><br />If anyone wanted to pimp this in their journal so I could get a mega-response, that'd earn you some big-time karma, I'm sure!</em><br /><br />You can note him, visit his journal at <a href="http://mystery-of-sorrow.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/m/y/mystery-of-sorrow.png" alt=":iconmystery-of-sorrow:" title="mystery-of-sorrow"/></a> or leave your answers here. <br /><br />MY ANSWERS: <br /><br />1. Burn out. "The brighter you burn, the sooner you burn out", that's pretty much the law of nature. And artists have these funny tendency to burn brighter. Yes, I think I do suffer from burn-outs more often than a lot of "commoners". (No offence, I just needed a term here <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/e/embarrassed.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":blush:" title="Blush" />)<br /><br />2. As to strategies, then I'm not sure there are any that would work 100% or so. Actually I think burnouts are natural, and should be taken thus, not to be avoided at all cost. Life just goes downhill, uphill. I suffer for some while, and then the brain and body just decide they've rested enough and start off again, often, I say, taking the art form to a next level or at least new ideas. <br />However, music is always good, and so is nature. Taking long walks with my camera. Being alone. I cannot stand communication when I'm down. Watching silly movies, reading old children's books... <br /><br /><div class="heading">Up close and personal</div><br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/n/new.gif" width="30" height="27" alt=":new:" title="New" /> As you might know, my white baby gerbil died (being just too weak and sickly), so Sirra remained alone. So, I went to see KÃ¤rts today, and brought home 2 last of the gerbil kids. You should have seen the happy family reunion at my place, you really should have. They were hugging and sniffing and chirping and a whole bundle of three very happy little sand mice.<br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://Mithgariel.deviantart.com/art/Family-reunion-1-118987076"><img src="http://th08.deviantart.com/fs44/150/i/2009/102/9/2/Family_reunion_1_by_Mithgariel.jpg" width="128" height="150" /></a></span></span><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://Mithgariel.deviantart.com/art/Family-reunion-2-118987580"><img src="http://th03.deviantart.com/fs42/150/i/2009/102/c/1/Family_reunion_2_by_Mithgariel.jpg" width="128" height="150" /></a></span></span><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://Mithgariel.deviantart.com/art/Family-reunion-3-118988084"><img src="http://th08.deviantart.com/fs44/150/i/2009/102/4/7/Family_reunion_3_by_Mithgariel.jpg" width="129" height="150" /></a></span></span><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://Mithgariel.deviantart.com/art/Sirius-and-Reflection-Mouse-118988588"><img src="http://th07.deviantart.com/fs42/150/i/2009/102/5/e/Sirius_and_Reflection_Mouse_by_Mithgariel.jpg" width="150" height="135" /></a></... ]]></description>

It simply won't work. They better fix it soon, I've got an article to make and I miss my faving, anyways... <br /><br />BUT I think I love the new Critique system. It really encourages some in-depth critique and still protects from flamers and lame-asses. I think I'm going to choose some of my works as well and allow this. Not on everything, because when I know that I won't repair the work or I like it as it is, there isn't a point for encouraging critique, or what? <br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /> <br /><br />I am building up a lil shop of photography and fractals in REDBUBBLE.

                <description><![CDATA[ <div class="dreamerspennant"><a href="http://dreamers-of-avalon.deviantart.com/" title="Dreamers-of-Avalon"> </a></div><br /><br />Be warned <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":p" title=":p (Lick)" /> I feel like showing you a lot of thumbs of my recent favourites. Always watching stock, but I won't include that here, because sooner or later they end up as a news article, so there'll be anything of the non-stock art. Visual, mostly, sadly, because I have little to no time to read anything. (I've got piles of books on my shelves and many many authors with great stories here in DA in my must-read list)<br /><br />You know, I've always been keen on nature photography, but one category that's grown very close to my heart more and more, is macro nature photography. I just cannot keep myself from ogling at the prettyness. <br /><br />Photomanipulation has grown less important to my eyes. One of the reasons may be that I fail to see many fresh and original ideas. Honestly, when I see yet another chick in dark dress on bluish background, I close the thumb. So I'd be delighted if any of my watchers would show me some originals manips. (Sowwy, not much into pure surrealism, since I simply cease to understand it, but sci-fi is wonderful and so is surreal tinted stuff)<br /><br />Traditional paintings and drawings is something I'd love to get a closer look at, but time is one issue and where to start is another. <br /><br />Artistic nudes and Fetish is something I also try to keep an eye on, but often fail (time time time...)<br /><br />But at least I look at my watch list, which is BIG. HUGE, actually. And when I like stuff, I at least fav it. It's a compliment, honestly. I either don't have time to comment or I fail to see use of a comment like "whoa, cool". I'm not very good at explaining why I like something. I either do or I don't. <br /><br />But now, teh thumbs. <br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://katieg.deviantart.com/art/Happy-Place-86015308"><img src="http://th02.deviantart.com/fs29/150/i/2008/139/b/b/Happy_Place_by_katieg.jpg" width="89" height="150" /></a></span></span> <span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://burkinafazo.deviantart.com/art/Mr-Witek8-48484575"><img src="http://th07.deviantart.com/fs14/150/i/2007/041/e/2/Mr_Witek8_by_burkinafazo.jpg" width="100" height="150" /></a></span></span> <span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://AccessElectry.deviantart.com/art/Can-I-85837985"><img src="http://th02.deviantart.com/fs30/150/f/2008/137/4/6/posso_by_AccessElectry.jpg" width="113" height="150" /></a></span></span> <span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://benjc79.deviantart.com/art/Sails-II-89831666"><img src="http://th04.deviantart.com/fs30/150/i/2008/178/a/3/Sails_2_by_benjc79.jpg" width="150" height="91" /></a></span></span> <span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://kagamijishi.deviantart.com/art/Tribal-Beauty-24051029"><img src="http://th08.deviantart.com/fs8/150/i/2005/288/3/d/Tribal_Beauty_by_kagamijishi.jpg" width="88" height="150" /></a></span></span> <span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://el3sl.deviantart.com/art/Strings-of-Earth-65313132"><img src="http://th09.deviantart.com/fs20/150/f/2007/262/9/3/Strings_of__Earth_by_el3sl.jpg" width="118" height="150" /></a></span></span> <span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://Maelstrom-Sinner.deviantart.com/art/Idleness-II-50040209"><img src="http://th06.deviantart.com/fs14/150/i/2007/062/f/9/Idleness_II_by_Maelstrom_Sinner.jpg" width="150" height="116" /></a></span></span> <span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://nixenator.deviantart.com/art/Atmosphere-105925964"><img src="http://th06.deviantart.com/fs38/150/i/2008/344/3/8/Atmosphere_by_nixenator.jpg" width="89" height="150" /></a></span></span> <span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://Robb3rt.deviantart.com/art/Simultaneous-21169475"><img src="http://th07.deviantart.com/fs7/150/i/2005/211/6/5/Simultaneous_by_Robb3rt.jpg" width="150" height="100" /></a></span></span> <span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://Juicegrape.deviantart.com/art/ATTENTION-98986009"><img src="http://th09.deviantart.com/images/150/shared/poetry.jpg" width="150" height="125" /></a></span></span> <span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://t3chnic0l0r.deviantart.com/art/Forgotten-13561110"><img src="http://th05.deviantart.com/fs5/150/i/2004/363/c/4/Forgotten_by_t3chnic0l0r.jpg" width="150" height="145" /></a></span></span> <span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow" ><a href="http://nakedfoot.deviantart.com/art/Berea-Peppers-4939098"><img src="http://th01.deviantart.com/images2/150/i/2004/05/6/b/Berea_Peppers.jpg" width="113" height="150" /></a></span></span> <span class="shadow-holder"><span... ]]></description>

Just won't be round internetz for couple of days. Tax monies needs to be earned. <br /><br />Thanks for everyone who cheered me up.

Cannot do anything, most parts of the body ache and I feel so damn shitty. I can cry looking at commercials. Can't draw, can't write, can't do anything. Oh, and concentration is zero and dropping as well. Everything and anything seems pointless. <br /><br />So excuse me, but I feel really shitty and snappy. <br />So, if you don't mind, shoot my PMS, please, thank you! Any other attempts to amuse me and show that you care are welcome, too. I'm in this "I want to snuggle up but got no one to snuggle up with" mood... <br /><br />Anyways, give some love to three wonderful ladies. <br /><br /><a href="http://denlm.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/d/e/denlm.jpg" alt=":icondenlm:" title="denlm"/></a> <a href="http://siobhan68.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/s/i/siobhan68.gif?1" alt=":iconsiobhan68:" title="siobhan68"/></a> & <a href="http://k2rts.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/k/2/k2rts.gif?1" alt=":iconk2rts:" title="k2rts"/></a> <br /><br />Love you, sweeties <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/hump.gif" width="27" height="17" alt=":hump:" title="Humpin that leg!" /><br /><br /><div class="bg"><div class="heading">KIND DONATORS</div><br /><a href="http://nirelleth.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/n/i/nirelleth.gif?4" alt=":iconnirelleth:" title="nirelleth"/></a> <a href="http://lawrencededark.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/l/a/lawrencededark.gif?2" alt=":iconlawrencededark:" title="lawrencededark"/></a> <a href="http://peterdawes.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/p/e/peterdawes.jpg?7" alt=":iconpeterdawes:" title="peterdawes"/></a> <a href="http://siila02.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/s/i/siila02.jpg" alt=":iconsiila02:" title="siila02"/></a> <a href="http://frendlygost.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/f/r/frendlygost.gif?1" alt=":iconfrendlygost:" title="frendlygost"/></a> <a href="http://lucieg-stock.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/l/u/lucieg-stock.jpg" alt=":iconlucieg-stock:" title="lucieg-stock"/></a> <a href="http://steppeland.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/s/t/steppeland.gif" alt=":iconsteppeland:" title="steppeland"/></a> <a href="http://magikstock.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/m/a/magikstock.gif" alt=":iconmagikstock:" title="magikstock"/></a></div> ]]></description>

(And I want that panda, nao!)<br /><br /><a href="http://news.deviantart.com/article/75193/">[link]</a><br /><br />Thanks to everyone who suggested songs for the article. My playlist is more colourful now, and I discovered that many of my favourite bands are Aussies. <br /><br />Then again, despite of Australia being on the opposite side of the globe, I've had many many friends there for years, hell, I've even had an Aussie boyfriend <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":p" title=":p (Lick)" /><br /><br />***<br /><br /><br />Damn this was one fine weekend. Months of work paid off. (Not in cash, of course) The event was fantastic. The team I'd been working with - KÃ¤rts and Stuart - have been truly amazing and most kinky. It's been a great honour and pleasure to work with them, and the Evil (or Golden) Trio will continue. <br /><br />Friday morning was one crazy packing and driving. When we reached Luige, the weather was fantastic, all snowy (up to knee or even hip, I say) and it was so so beautiful. We also conquered the evil chimney. <br /><br />Players were superb, from costumes to roles. *insert very, very satisfied purring here* <br />Plot was fulfilled 130 %'ly. (100 % that we came up before the game and an additional improvisation for 30%). Action, fun, grief, happiness, mystery, surrealism... etc. <br /><br />In case you want to take a closer peek, here's the photos I took: <br /><br /><a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://picasaweb.google.com/kadikaz/IlmaplatsII#">[link]</a><br /><br />And our sincere thanks to <a href="http://siobhan68.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/s/i/siobhan68.gif?1" alt=":iconsiobhan68:" title="siobhan68"/></a>, who is to be blamed for the plot idea, since the story she requested from me, ONCE UPON A DREAM <a href="http://mithgariel.deviantart.com/art/Once-upon-a-dream-111596790">[link]</a> created the entire little world where fate took the adventurers this time (and thanks for the tips on making the beak for the raven as well..) <br /><br />I am so so so happy, just look at me smile <br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br /><br /><div class="bg"><div class="heading">KIND DONATORS</div><br /><a href="http://nirelleth.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/n/i/nirelleth.gif?4" alt=":iconnirelleth:" title="nirelleth"/></a> <a href="http://lawrencededark.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/l/a/lawrencededark.gif?2" alt=":iconlawrencededark:" title="lawrencededark"/></a> <a href="http://peterdawes.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/p/e/peterdawes.jpg?7" alt=":iconpeterdawes:" title="peterdawes"/></a> <a href="http://siila02.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/s/i/siila02.jpg" alt=":iconsiila02:" title="siila02"/></a> <a href="http://frendlygost.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/f/r/frendlygost.gif?1" alt=":iconfrendlygost:" title="frendlygost"/></a> <a href="http://lucieg-stock.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/l/u/lucieg-stock.jpg" alt=":iconlucieg-stock:" title="lucieg-stock"/></a> <a href="http://steppeland.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/s/t/steppeland.gif" alt=":iconsteppeland:" title="steppeland"/></a> <a href="http://magikstock.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/m/a/magikstock.gif" alt=":iconmagikstock:" title="magikstock"/></a></div> ]]></description>

I managed to get a new operator. So, after talking to one hottie in the office another hottie came to put a box up to the roof, and now my internet runs something like 300-400 kb/s. Ya, it ain't much, but it's the best I can afford and honestly, compared to 0-2 kb/s it runs really smoothly. I can download stuff and I can upload stock pictures. I tried. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /> <br /><br /><div class="heading">Delicious Stock Picks 10th edition</div><br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/hungry.gif" width="33" height="21" alt=":hungry:" title="I am famished!" /> <a href="http://news.deviantart.com/article/71509/">[link]</a> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/g/gallery.gif" width="47" height="26" alt=":gallery:" title="Gallery" /><br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/boo.gif" width="27" height="29" alt=":boo:" title="BOO! Ha ha, gotcha!" /> The only thing that makes me want to grab a heavy pan and slap people around is when I meet highly popular stock pictures which state that "no redistribution" yadda yadda, when they have been put together from other stock photos which had the same rule. Seriously, I'm getting a little paranoid here when I see great pictures - I fear they've been stolen.<br />PS. I no longer argue with thieves.

YEAH, I finally got it written, and I am totally nuts and now I'm gonna do some tea and watch some silly movie, and tomorrow I'm gonna go to a crazy Latino costume party and I'm wondering if I should dress up as a priest, grab a bible and make them all confess their sins while they commit them <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br /><br />And yes, I sleep with my Fella and am keen on hamsters on fire! <br /><br /><div class="heading">Heart of winter</div><br /><br />So Gordon and Belaric are back. <br /><br />If you don't know what the fuck I'm babbling about, see here <br /><a href="http://mithgariel.deviantart.com/gallery/#Heart-of-Winter-erotic-dark-fantasy-novel">[link]</a><br /><br />If you do, see here <a href="http://mithgariel.deviantart.com/art/Heart-of-winter-Intermission-110019844">[link]</a><br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/rose.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":rose:" title="Rose" /><br /><br /><div class="heading">"A moment in time"</div><br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow"><a href="http://Mithgariel.deviantart.com/art/A-moment-in-time-chap-1-109696720"><img src="http://th03.deviantart.com/fs41/150/i/2009/021/c/9/A_moment_in_time__chap_1_by_Mithgariel.jpg" width="145" height="150" /></a></span></span><br /><br />Now, this story takes us to the land of nahese, vampiric tiger lords, which resides by the Fire Red Land, which some of you may know. <br /><br />With my last (and only) kiriban of 100,000, =<a class="u" href="http://peterdawes.deviantart.com/">peterdawes</a> won an erotic short story to his liking. Then again, as it turns out then I am unable to write really short stories, so this grew... bigger. <br /><br />This is only the first chapter and meeting of the would-be lovers. <br /><br />To your knowledge, Peter wanted a vampire story with seduction, luring, bait, kill etc. He also told me to go where my muse takes me. But my muse is a weird creature (and a hot gay male, as my sis keeps telling me), so insted of inventing a bycicle I chose a world which already exists (if you are familiar with my Fire Red Land tales, then you know). <br /><br />*<a class="u" href="http://denlm.deviantart.com/">denlm</a> should be happy with this, at least <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wink.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" /> She's my most ferocious fangirl. <br />And then there's *<a class="u" href="http://siobhan68.deviantart.com/">Siobhan68</a> and I couldn't do it without her, since she's like my beta reader and keeper of my confidence. <br /><br />PS. If anyone says anything about this being "gay" or "yaoi" then I will use a lasc nimh on you (that being a poisoned tip whip of the helmorui, ask *<a class="u" href="http://siobhan68.deviantart.com/">Siobhan68</a> just how much it hurts).<br /><br /><div class="heading">100,000</div><br /><br />Armed with the sharpest katana, pair of flashing fangs and unbeatable talent for poetry, Peter Dawes (with the help of Julie) caught the BIG NUMBER <br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow"><a href="http://peterdawes.deviantart.com/art/mithgariel-s-100-000-109498010"><img src="http://th00.deviantart.com/fs41/150/f/2009/014/6/0/mithgariel__s_100_000_by_peterdawes.jpg" width="150" height="146" /></a></span></span><br /><br />and will hence get an erotic story to his liking. I am anxious to hear what he wants <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> <br /><br />As to the rest of you, don't be so sad, OK? <br />Here's what we'll do - you want a story? OK - we trade. I get something from you and you get something from me. Art trade. How does that sound, lil pervs? <br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/hump.gif" width="27" height="17" alt=":hump:" title="Humpin that leg!" /><br /><br />Now, I usually don't give a flying dick about pageviews (especially since FLYING dicks are really rare!), but 100 000 has the kind of shape and sound... <br />Which obviously shows that I've been here way too long and often, pimping some biatches and spanking the others <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wink.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" /> <br /><br /><br /><sub> I have slept like 10 hours in the last 50 hours, so - don't mind me <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":p" title=":p (Lick)" /></sub><br /><br /><div class="bg"><div class="heading">KIND DONATORS</div><br /><a href="http://nirelleth.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.devianta... ]]></description>

I'm sure a lot of you have heard and quite some participated. <br /><br />Now, I'm going to give the winners a feature, as promised, but I'm going to do a bit more and feature my personal favourites as well. Cause I'm odd like that <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":p" title=":p (Lick)" /><br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/snowflake.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":snowflake:" title="Snowflake" /> 1st place: <br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow"><a href="http://lady-symphonia.deviantart.com/art/Queen-of-Frozen-Hearts-106593246"><img src="http://th02.deviantart.com/fs39/150/i/2009/005/b/5/Queen_of_Frozen_Hearts_by_lady_symphonia.jpg" width="130" height="150" /></a></span></span> <br /><br />I agree, it's a fine work. But I wish that the artist would do as I suggested and respect sxc.hu artists as much as she respects deviants. If I read "stock from sxc.hu" my hair stand up and stay up for quite some time. <br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/snowflake.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":snowflake:" title="Snowflake" /> 2nd place: <br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow"><a href="http://Trisste.deviantart.com/art/Wintery-Reunion-104575694"><img src="http://th03.deviantart.com/fs38/150/f/2008/330/1/5/1513556d7e0b6e8a32f71d180bb8535b.jpg" width="150" height="103" /></a></span></span><br /><br />Love the cliff, love the bear <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /> Girl's hair seem to vanish into the background, but that's about the only critique. <br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/snowflake.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":snowflake:" title="Snowflake" /> 3rd place:<br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow"><a href="http://Lillucyka.deviantart.com/art/Winter-fairy-105761996"><img src="http://th05.deviantart.com/fs38/150/f/2008/357/8/e/8e31cbcb95f8594202a750d069e549f3.jpg" width="132" height="150" /></a></span></span><br /><br />Reminds me of the old postcards.

Great use of colours. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/c/clap.gif" width="25" height="25" alt=":clap:" title="Clap" /><br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/snowflake.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":snowflake:" title="Snowflake" /> <br /><br />And some of mah own favourites: <br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow"><a href="http://TyaKo-and-Apple.deviantart.com/art/Hold-My-Hand-106839178"><img src="http://th08.deviantart.com/fs38/150/i/2008/354/6/a/Hold_My_Hand_by_TyaKo_and_Apple.jpg" width="150" height="113" /></a></span></span><br /><br />It's different.

Be fair warned - I'm a total nutcase and the pic shows. <br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow"><a href="http://Mithgariel.deviantart.com/art/Meet-me-108853401"><img src="http://th09.deviantart.com/fs41/150/f/2009/008/a/1/a10ebdcc8aca41b7b0affa891873e64f.jpg" width="85" height="150" /></a></span></span><br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":p" title=":p (Lick)" /><br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/faint.gif" width="18" height="17" alt=":faint:" title="I think I've fainted." /> <br />I got a note from the post office today and I was surprised. Then I went to see what's the special mail and I found a soft package with A FELLA inside it. No note, nothing, just a FELLA <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br /><br />He's uber cute! <br />Methinks I have a secret admirer. Well, whoever you were, thank you SO much. Exactly what I needed during this crazy exam session... <br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /><br /><br />My first animal ever, unless you'd consider Easter bunnies and chicks...<br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow"><a href="http://Mithgariel.deviantart.com/art/I-am-ambitious-108518068"><img src="http://th06.deviantart.com/fs41/150/f/2009/005/0/3/03733a032d073557fa6e590b0a5d8fd3.jpg" width="150" height="134" /></a></span></span> Just a bit of progress. <br /><br />BTW, his name is Ladar. (That's Irish for "ladle". Siobhan is his godmother <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" />)<br /><br />PS. "World's fastest Indian" is a damn good movie and as you might well know, Anthony Hopkins is a damn good actor.<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/snowflake.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":snowflake:" title="Snowflake" /><br /><br />By semantic theory, what does a kid call "cat"?<br /><br />a) everything furry<br />b) everything that looks like the thing mum called "cat"<br />c) only his own cat<br />d) everything with a pullable tail<br /><br />Honestly, I had this question in my exam test. I laughed out loud. <br />Well, I'm not sure how it went. They wanted details, and pretty damn petty details. No understanding of the subject required. The parts that were not medical and concerned sleep, language or smth like that were OK. The rest sucked bad. <br /><br />Got to wait for results. Hoping to get a D, at least. <br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /><br /><br />Thanks and cookies for everybody who gave suggestions about the flying cursor issue. <br />Moral of the story: reading manuals sometimes pays off. Managed to turn off the touchpad, so now I'm only gonna use it when I actually have to (And since I rather use my laptop on a table and not in my lap, then it'll cover most of the time.)<br /><br />Also, my mouse sits no longer upon my tablet but on a cat. The one and last mouse pad in the shop has a red cat on it <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":p" title=":p (Lick)" /> Poor mouse. <br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/snowflake.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":snowflake:" title="Snowflake" /><br /><br /><div class="heading">New year wishes</div><br /><br />This I wish you this year. <br />Love - for yourself, for others, for the world around you.<br />Happiness - from little things in this world and the moments with your friends and loved ones.<br />And above all - peace of mind. <br /><br />I had a wonderful LARP with a lot of my friends. Jessica became an angel and soldiers of heaven beat the evil forces. I see it as a good omen, I really do. For this night and day I believe in this, and I wish so would you. <br /><br />Love you, folks <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smooch.gif" width="35" height="16" alt=":smooch:" title="Smooooch!" /><br /><br /><div class="heading">Here be dwagons</div><br /><br />EDIT: Some have asked how come I have so many. Simple answer: They're not all mine, I'm just like a... keeper. They belong to me, my mum, sis and niece. I got my family addicted, you see <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wink.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" /> Now everybody wants dwagons but I'm the only one with a comp and internet round here. <br /><br />More questions - ask *<a class="u" href="http://siobhan68.deviantart.com/">Siobhan68</a>, and ask nicely. She's had her dragon friends for much longer time, I'm just a n00b.<br /><br /><b>... ]]></description>

I haz baby dwagons now. And new eggs. The beautiful white hatchling was an orphan. Not any more! <br /><br />Yes, I'm a little obsessed with them, but they're just so cute AND each is a piece of art. <br /><br /><div class="heading">Worried</div><br /><br />During the last week or so my eyes have been giving me a lot of trouble. They're OK during the day, but since evening they start aching, get puffy and it's hard to look at anything. And I can't just curl into a ball and sleep (and now, I'm not sleepy, you know), but I need to read stuff for my exams (first on 5th already...) and I need to write. I tried, but I had to quit. <br /><br />Bright light seems to hurt them worst, because when I turn the lights off and watch a movie or smth, then it ain't that bad, but reading or writing - nearly impossible. Blind typing is helpful, but... Yeah... <br /><br /><div class="heading">I'm on Acer now.</div><br /><br />So I'm finally on my new laptop. Just in time, because the old one just kept crashing on me over and over... <br />I owe a million thanks to a good friend for setting it up for me, and loads of glomps for those generous people who found some bucks during this money eating time that is Christmas and donated to my laptop fund. <br /><br />I'm still getting used to this thing. Some keys are not where they used to be and for some reason, the cursor keeps jumping sometimes to unimaginable places... Anybody know why is that?<br /><br />I've got most of the programs now, except that I'm downloading PS4 and Corel. Because oh silly me had managed to delete the installation packs... <br /><br />But all in all, it works like wonder. And it does not crash and I can even watch dvds with it.

                <description><![CDATA[ <div class="dreamerspennant"><a href="http://dreamers-of-avalon.deviantart.com/" title="Dreamers-of-Avalon"> </a></div><br /><br />Hey there!<br /><br /><b>28th day:</b> <br /><br />I've taken a small break from writing and concentrated on plotting. But I promise myself that I'll write at least 2000 words tonight. Need to get this baby to its finish. BC, that is. <br /><br />DELICIOUS STOCK PICKS III just got released - <br /><br /><a href="http://news.deviantart.com/article/63473/">[link]</a><br /><br />I'm going to have a session of dry water massage today, along with Margit, and then maybe we'll go party in a pub or something like that. But I'll try and come home early, and get into writing. <br /><br />I've been watching Sanctuary (you know, the Sam *cough* Amanda Tapping series), and now I'm impatiently waiting for the next part. So far there's been 8. Delicious. <br /><br />Heroes and Supernatural on the list. <br />I've got a lot of drawing to do, but there's a problem with that - due to the laptop dying and touchpad going nuts I cannot really use my tablet, either (unless there's a way to switch touchpad off. Is there?)<br /><br /><b>25th day:</b> <br /><br /><img src="http://www.nanowrimo.org/sites/all/themes/nanowrimo/wordcount/nano_08_winner_viking_120x238.jpg"><br /><br />Damn this feels good! <br /><br /><b>24th day:</b> <br /><br />I wrote 3851 words today, despite all obstacles. (and there were many). <br />I've only got 2884 left to win. I think I will get that pretty purple bar tomorrow. Yes, I'm gonna claim it, despite of being a Nano rebel. I've managed to write so much of my novel that I'm realistically planning to finish it within this year. If that's not a win, then I don't know what is. <br /><br />And I'm still going to finish it, even if no one reads it. (A few do, I know - I love you very much for that.)<br /><br />Other than that: Hoar and I decided that we would once again get into the realm of Labhrainn in January, so cheer, HOW and HAB fans. (You should have read BC meanwhile, but you didn't...)<br />And then we'll try and finish that off. <br /><br />Most likely 999NWO will be next in line. Raise a hand who remembers that? <br /><br />It's snow everywhere outside. Snow up to thigh, I'd say. I couldn't even get to town today, so I used it to sit and write. <br /><br /><b>23rd day:</b> <br /><br />Slept until half past 1 something. Wasted most of the day doing little of anything. Feeling sick and throwing up. <br />Finally managed to write like 1700 words and I think I'll call it done for tonight, because it's past midnight, 1.18 and my brain's... gone would be the word, methinks. <br />But I'm over 43 000. <br />Characters decided to have a very different scene from what I had in mind. So instead of meeting his new partner James had a very "interesting" scene with his superior officer Miss Lowery. <br /><br /><b>22nd day:</b> <br /><br />Despite of feeling really tired and sick (most likely because it's THAT time of the month) I still managed to write 1.5 or so. I'll try to do better tomorrow, since today I was mostly at work. And then I slept, because I was so exhausted I almost fell asleep on the bus. <br /><br />My characters went haywire and decided they would admit to each other about their reasons of breaking up years ago. That would be Xavier and Emory. <br />Poor Shawn... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /> I feel bad for him, now, because he really loves Xavier, too. And poor Xavier who has to decide between the two. It will not be easy on him. <br /><br />More characters keep joining the revolutionaries. <br /><br /><b>21st day:</b> <br /><br />Yesterday was like 3-words day, since I was working from morning to 2 o'clock in the next morning. But at least my project is finished now and I'm gonna get some cash in the end of the month. Which is soon. <br /><br />Today I made it to 40 003 words, which was also my goal. 40 000, that is. <br />Unless some dragon lands on me, I'm pretty sure I'll manage to win Nanowrimo, and I'll be much closer to finishing the first draft of my first full length English sci-fi novel. <br /><br />I've been talking with one of my favourite artists round here, *<a class="u" href="http://lehanan.deviantart.com/">lehanan</a>, and I might just have talked her into making me a book cover <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> <br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/c/cry.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":cry:" title="Crying" /> <b>Sad news: MY COMP IS DYING. Cursor going crazy, sound went off, some keys are about to fall off etc etc. I managed to order a new laptop, and hopefully it will arrive before this one totally blows. <br />Laptop is very, very important, because first of all - it's impossible to study without a comp and net - our dear uni is very much computerized. And then... ]]></description>

Stuff, stuff. Stuff.</div></div><br />Yeah. <br />I've got a cold. From the weekend in Laulasmaa spa, most likely, because outside the pools it was freezing. Sneezing, sour throat, fever. Feels shitty. Need to get well, because Sunday there'll be Tori and hippotherapy. Horseriding!!!<br /><br />Writing LARP material. <br />Manipping. Want to take part of the Cosmic Illusions contest, pondering on the book cover for *<a class="u" href="http://peterdawes.deviantart.com/">peterdawes</a> Got some ideas, tried last night, but the outcome was HORRIBLE. Trust me, Peter, you don't wanna see that. <br />Got an account at adultfanfiction.net, though I'm merely using it for BC. Which I should write, but I don't have the time, really. Well, in November I will. Nanowrimo. <br /><br />Cold sucks. <br />Revised my "Leaving Atlantis". Still not wholly satisfied, though. <br />Taking a break from HAB. We're playing a little of some sci-fi stories. They may and may not end up here. We'll see. <br /><br />*time snake called Orpheus purrs*<br /><br />Went to animal shelter today and there was a cute puppy, but mum refused totally and made a scene. Said the pup was too big. She wants someone very cute and cuddly, not a brat like that pup was... <br />*le sigh* We fought. <br /><br />Got myself a leather coat (really long one) from second hand store. Only 100 EEK. That would be around 7-8 dollars. Imagine that, huh? Almost new. <br /><br />Watching SG-1. Teal'c's talking in my head. They killed my favourite goa'uld, though. You know, the one who betrayed the tokra (and is played by the same guy who played Methos in Highlander series). <br />At least there's one cool guy left - Ba'al. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br /><br />Tomorrow I'll go and buy myself a new sweetheart.

He wasn't old, he wasn't sick. My old man just found him dead. <br /><br />As an addition, two of our kittens were given away, my favourite Sharra amongst them. So, I will never see Meika and Sharra again, either. Orrick's still looking for a new home, but there are not many chances. Mum's keeping her own personal favourite. <br /><br />The house is empty. Fram was a dear friend of mine, always so lively, playful, compassionate, so darn loyal... <br />I feel empty. I keep crying, and I had a big argument with my mother, because she thought I was mad at her and kept accusing me, and ordered me to be in good mood, to which I responded whether I should be happy about my dog being dead and never seeing the kittens again. She doesn't care a damn about anyone else but herself. <br /><br />And just to add to it, my LARP project is NOT going well at all, with my logistic being unavailable for 2 weeks already, and some really necessary people telling me they cannot participate. OH, and did I mention no fuckin' motivation? <br /><br />I had a dream about an old friend of mine. Well, someone that used to be my friend and whom I still care about a great deal. In the dream we were still best buddies... <br /><br />I've been losing a little too much within these last couple of years, really. <br /><br />Ought to go to uni now, but my back hurts so fuckin much I'm not sure I will be able to. The moment I can stop crying, though, I will try and go.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

Something very basic, because honestly, it's not easy to find one that looks good, serves my needs and is EASY to use. The last one was pretty, true, but honestly, I don't want to be forced to write a long journal entry just because I want my links somewhere on the journal. <br /><br />This one I had to modify, too, because the codes were a bit messed up. (Either that or I'm a freak. Which is of course true, so... might be it.)<br /><br />Anyways - I have uni, I have Stargate, I'm writing HaB with Hoar and since I totally lost IT, I'm arranging a small LARP. So no wonder if it sucks up all my time. <br /><br />I try to respond your comments and such, but please forgive me if I'm not very active. I simply don't have time. Oh, right - I've got work, too. Yay. <br /><br />One of my kittens attacked a police officer today and tried to eat her. The ferocious lady was Daywen. <br />They're growing so fast. <br />One of these days Iti got them a mouse. Orrick stole it off and defended it from all others, hissing and growling. He played with the dead mouse and finally ate it. <br />Meika and Sharra (Sharrraaaa *cries*) have found their future home. Well, at least it's a good one. As to Orrick, then I hope that somehow he manages to reach Lemmy. <br />Mum will have us keep Daywen, because she adores her. (Sharra's my favourite, but of course, that does not matter a thing...)<br /><br /><div class="main"><div class="header">Stock features.

My knees hurt so bad I cried. <br /><br />We went around Neuss, drank cold beer, Anya's place is every roleplayer's wet dream (you will see once I manage to get all the stock up), I got myself a personal dark elf miniature, we went to Cologne, partied in DÃ¼sseldorf and travelled in the outskirts of Neuss with Lothar's car. <br />I miss them terribly and I spent one hell of a holiday there. <br /></div><br /><br /><div class="eachtitle">BIRTHDAY WAS SO MUCH FUN</div><br /><div class="textarea">I will put it short - I have not had so much good time for years, honestly.

It's yummi. And actually I got a lot of neccessary stuff from my folks. All the stuff for university and a brand new chair.

Just me and some of the gang, and the botanical gardens, unless it's raining cats and dogs. <br />Best thing - KÃ¤rts is back. My best buddy. She was away in England all summer and I missed her terribly. She arrived today and I just got home from her place. I got not only 1 but 3 gifts, and they're awesome. A keychain in the shape of a fairy, a bundle of jewellery to be hanged to a bag, and a necklace. Drank wine, chatted, looked at all the pretty pictures she'd taken with her brand new Nikon D60, chose many pics for stock and her art account. And tomorrow she'll take me out partying. <br /><br />Life's good? Yeah, life's good. Birthday last year sucked big time, I was completely alone and forgotten.

Busy busy. Working my ass off. Well, I don't complain too much, because despite the long shifts I really like my client (to those who are not aware of: I work as a personal assistant to a handicapped woman) and the job is pretty much routin free. Today we went to 4D cinema - I know what it feels like to fly a spaceship through an unknown planet, now, and visited the highest new building in the town. 24 floors. (No skyscrapers in Estonia, so this is pretty damn tall, could see the entire city). <br /><br />Still struggling with JulWriMo - writing Big City - and I intend to win. <br /><br />Other writings are on a small break, because Hoar and I are very fond of playing Vampire: The Masquerade. I have a very l33t Gangrel hunter and Hoar has a Toreador prince. <br /><br />Watching Stargate Atlantis, 4th season, and loving it. Ronon, especially, but Sheppard is pretty damn cool, too. <br /><br />Tomorrow I'm going to submit my papers to university (educational sciences, English and Estonian language, I'm gonna be a teacher) and buy tickets to Cologne and back - going to visit :devsiobhan69:, Lothar and everybody else around there. <br />So I'll be gone the first weeks of August, and then there will be Mytofest - the roleplay and folklore festival in JÃµgeva, Kassinurme, Estonia, then I'll have Osamu coming to Baltic States and Estonia, my birthday and a Japanese LARP. So, my holiday is very booked. <br /><br />I've got 4 baby kittens at ho... ]]></description>

The stories are originally written by ~<a class="u" href="http://anubishoarmurath.deviantart.com/">anubishoarmurath</a> and myself. (And they can be found in my gallery, in case you have no clue what I'm talking about.)<br /><br />Wiki says about fanfiction:<br />Fan fiction is a broadly defined term for fiction about characters or settings written by admirers of the original work, rather than by the original creators. Most fan fiction writers assume that their readers have knowledge of the canon universe (created by the writer) in which their works are based.<br /><br />So, now you know <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wink.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" /><br />Mediums? Any you can imagine - digital painting, photomanipulation, traditional drawing, short story (novel <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> ), poem, photo, fluffy stuffed Keith - the limit is only your imagination and the term - fanfiction. So - it has to be connected to the world of Labhrainn and/or the characters.<br /><br />Feel like tossing Gordon and Belaric through a wormhole unto Mars - go for it. The limit is your imagination, like already <br />said.<br /><br /><div class="title">Contest news</div><br /><br />DEADLINE HAS BEEN EXTENDED, to allow several people who have irl issues... ]]></description>

Yes, MAYBE it could be better technically (stuff always could), but I was damn satisfied when I finished with it. <br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow"><a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/89968084/"><img src="http://tn1-2.pv.deviantart.com/fs25/150/f/2008/179/f/f/ffb560d712e53efb4f2ce0ce0d05d4d9.jpg" width="55" height="150" /></a></span></span><br /><br />Now, let us take a peek of the statistics - <br /><br />Comments: 7<br />Favourites & Collections: 8<br /><br />Views<br />Total: 98<br />Today: 10<br /><br />Just wow, huh? <br /><br />And then I notice some random pics of morose chicks on cliffs, and they've got hundreds of favs and comments. <br />I'm not a fav or comment whore, but really... <br /><br />OK, let's look at the statistics once again: <br /><br />Her deviation with the most comments is Nemoralia with 141 comments, while her most favourited one is Undine, with 105 favourites. Her most viewed deviation is Queen Wolf with 3,258 views.<br /><br />Comments per deviation: 11.51<br />Favourites per deviation: 7.61<br />Views per deviation: 166.88<br /><br />Now, I strongly believe that even if I did try my hand on poor darkly dressed chicks standing longingly on the edge of a cliff, it wouldn't change a damn thing. <br />Well, another option besides the fact that I do not follow the popular line is that I lack of the unique style and ot... ]]></description>

Unfortunately, Luna is very unpopular <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /> Sad, because I really really like that work. <br />I am your empress' is more popular, though. Good for her. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /> <br /><br />Also, I uploaded a series of photos, my Estonian Summer series. <br /><br /><div class="title">Literature news</div><br /><br />Hoar and I are back on writing HaB and NWO. Heart of Winter has to hold, until HaB catches up with it. <br />BC grows daily, since it's JulWriMo. <br /><br />Contest is...well, sitting. We've got five amazing entries, though.

                <description><![CDATA[ <br></br><br /><br />Writing and reading about science fiction. This is all an evil plan of Hoar's. She's ebil, ebil I tell you, ebul, even. <br /><br />A teaser for you: <br /><br />*************************************************************************<br />It was a damn hot night at Ezo V. Hot and sweaty. Such night would make even androids sweat, some said and laughed. Something happened to androids and even warbots during such nights. They grew... restless, as if pulled by some unanimous force. Driven by something, someone.<br /><br />Irvin England came twirling down aboard his hijacked spacejumper, poor hostages sweating on the floor from both heat and fear. Yes, it was hot indeed, especially compared to Rasivie Octavus, the cold watery grave they called a prison.<br />Yesterday yet a convict for life, today a free man, but running for not only his freedom, but also his life. This time they wouldn't just cut an X into his back and throw him into the Box for three years. They'd just dump him into the icy lake and that would be the end of it. You couldn't swim out of waters which covered 80 percent of the damn planet.<br /><br />Switching space ships had been a good idea. No way he could have got pass the gates of Ezo V aboard a garbage ship. But this one, flashy and white, belonging to a rich family - it was perfect. It flew like shit, but he wasn't complaining. It could get him through the gates.<br /><br />He pointed his electrical gun at the father.<br />"Time to show them your permit, isn't it?"<br />The man nodded and rose slowly, walked up to the central computer and as the pretty voice commanded, chucked his permit to the reader. It ran clean, of course it did.<br />Federation wasn't really afraid of runaway convicts. After all, Rasivie Octavus was a topnotch security prison and nobody escaped there. Not officially, of course. Yet Ian had, a good seven years ago, and now Irvin had managed to follow him in exactly the same way. The Federation denied, of course and the inmates were severely tortured so that they wouldn't get any of these ideas into their heads. But however deep the lasers cut the will to be free was deeper. It was eternal and all matter dissolved when meeting with it. There was a black hole inside each man.<br />*************************************************************************<br /><br />My PS does not want to open, and that's a damn bad thing, because I have dozens of photos to edit and upload, and dozens of stock packs to make. Argh. <br /><br />But here, enjoy the awesome stock: <br /><br /><span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow"><a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/85641876/"><img src="http://tn1-1.pv.deviantart.com/fs29/150/i/2008/135/d/c/Lilly_house_stock_1_by_Tigg_stock.jpg" width="100" height="150" /></a></span></span> <span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow"><a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/85640394/"><img src="http://tn1-2.pv.deviantart.com/fs25/150/i/2008/135/b/3/LS_milky_way_by_lounalovegood_stock.jpg" width="150" height="100" /></a></span></span> <span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow"><a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/85624607/"><img src="http://tn1-3.pv.deviantart.com/fs29/150/i/2008/135/6/b/Red_Dress_2_by_gesastock.jpg" width="91" height="150" /></a></span></span> <span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow"><a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/85541513/"><img src="http://tn1-1.pv.deviantart.com/fs30/150/f/2008/134/a/6/Garden_22_by_MarjoleinART_Stock.jpg" width="100" height="150" /></a></span></span> <span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow"><a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/85598518/"><img src="http://tn1-3.pv.deviantart.com/fs28/150/i/2008/134/4/e/Flurrie_Summer_11_by_littlenake.jpg" width="150" height="113" /></a></span></span> <span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow"><a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/85447986/"><img src="http://tn1-5.pv.deviantart.com/fs26/150/f/2008/133/a/b/Superior_FirePower_15_by_LadyDeath666.jpg" width="113" height="150" /></a></span></span> <span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow"><a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/85464133/"><img src="http://tn1-1.pv.deviantart.com/fs26/150/i/2008/133/5/f/LS_kraftless_by_lounalovegood_stock.jpg" width="150" height="100" /></a></span></span> <span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow"><a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/85351837/"><img src="http://tn1-5.pv.deviantart.com/fs28/150/i/2008/132/c/8/Boats_by_Masterslive.jpg" width="150" height="113" /></a></span></span> <span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow"><a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/85340353/"><img src="http://tn1-5.pv.deviantart.com/fs27/150/i/2008/132/c/6/vampire01_by_stock4profs.jpg" width="147" height="150" /></a></span></span> <span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow"><a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/85338600/"><img src="http://tn1-4.pv.deviantart.com/fs30/150... ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ <br></br><br /><br />Blame *<a class="u" href="http://denlm.deviantart.com/">denlm</a>. Blame her a lot. <br />Btw - if you wonder who Brynmor is, then I just know you've not read my tales from the Fire Red Land. Tsk tsk tsk. <br /><br />1) Full Name: Brynmor<br /><br />2) Male/Female: Ummm? What's a female? What's a male? I'm a firewolf, alright. <br /><br />3) Were you named after anyone?: Not that I know of.<br /><br />4) Does your name mean anything?: Yes. It's a plant with white blossoms, grows in the desert. <br /><br />5) Nick Name(s): No.<br /><br />6) Who do you think you look like: Me?<br /><br />7) Date Of Birth: About 18 years ago, during winter.<br /><br />8) Place of Birth and Current Location: Hometribe, but I'm not gonna speak of that. Currently - at the First Gate. <br /><br />9) Nationality: What do you mean? I'm a firewolf of the Fire Red Land. <br /><br />10) Astrology Sign: A what?<br /><br />11) Chinese Astrology Sign: A what?<br /><br />12) Religion: There is only one god. The Greatest Fire, and I am His Guardian. <br /><br />13) WhatÂs your favorite smell?: Iorweth's.<br /><br />14) Political Position?: I strongly dislike politics. <br /><br />15) What do you prefer to drink in the morning?: Cold torrent water.<br /><br />16) Hair + Eye color: Both my hair and fur are dark gray, and my eyes are gray as well.<br /><br />17) Do you look like anyone famous?: No. <br /><br />18) What do you look like?: Dark gray fur and short spiky hair of he same colour, gray eyes, slender, slim, average height, rather savage looking, they say. <br /><br />19) Any unusual talents?: Unusual? I've been told I'm rather powerful in might, but quite some are, so - nothing unusual. <br /><br />20) Righty, Lefty, or Ambidextrous?: The ambi thing. <br /><br />21) Gay, Straight, Bi, or Other?: A what? I am Iorweth's mate, that's all you need to know. <br /><br />22) What do you do for a living?: I am Gate Guardian of the First Gate. That means I guard the gateway between my homeland and other worlds. I'll do it as long as I live and when I die, I become a spirit guardian of the gate. <br /><br />23) What do you do for fun?: Fun... I spend time with Iorweth. He's the only one I've ever had fun with. Some other Guardians are pretty OK, too, but... <br /><br />24) What are your favorite art materials to work with?: Why so many meaningless confusing questions? Leatherwork, I think.

I have Iorweth, he's all the celebrity I need. <br /><br />30) Current worries?: Quite many of those, but it's none of your concern.

Oh. No, we don't eat stuff like that. I like fresh baked bread, though. Like to make it for Iorweth, too, but we're both rather into meat. <br /><br />37) Person you cry with: I don't cry. If I did, it would be with my mate, only. <br /><br />38) Any sisters: (after some thorough and confusing explanations). No. No such freaks in my family. <br /><br />39) Any brothers: Two by birth, one adopted, but I don't consider the first two my kin and they're dead. Iorweth I never considered my brother, but my love and now mate. <br /><br />40) Any pets: I've had a lizard. Sometimes I miss him. We have some lizards at the Gate, too, so I guess I'm taking care of them and they are my... pets. <br /><br />41) An Illness: Some fevers, nothing serious. <br /><br />42) A Pager: ???<br /><br />43) A Personal phone line: Some are into telepathy, but not I.

Straightforward. Very protective when it comes to Iorweth. Caring - when it comes to him. Loyal. I really don't like to talk about stuff like this, OK? Very quiet, I think. Or so hey complain. They also say I'm scary and hostile. <br /><br />49) Driving: A damn lizard, how many times do you ask?<br /><br />50) Your clothing style: Formal robes of the gate - in black, shortly. <br /><br />51) Room: Our... ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ <br></br><br /><br />First of all a note stating that I'll be out of town for work since tomorrow morning and I'll return to civilization Sunday midnight. Which basically means that I'll be back online sometime during Monday, if I'm still alive by then. It's not gonna be easy, but I was promised some extra cash and I sure need that. Last month's salary was so small that after I paid my taxes there was little to nothing left. <br /><br />That said, I'll just briefly state some other personal news. <br /><br />* I haz Photoshop CS3 Extended now. I'll explore it when I get back. <br />* Annette aka =<a class="u" href="http://stampingqueen.deviantart.com/">stampingqueen</a> is one of the most craziest lovable people I've ever known. <br />* I was thinking of writing a chapter of Big City tonight, but we'll see. I'm kinda braindead and tired. 4 free days simply vanished. <br />* KÃ¤rts and Markus rock.<br />* I'm watching anime. Claymore. Look it up. It's epic and awesomely beautiful. <br />* I'm gonna see SG 1 as soon as Hoar burns it up and finds means to deliver it to me. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br /><br /><div align="center"><sub><a href="http://clairejones.deviantart.com/art/Simple-Clean-CSS-Layout-51003387">Journal CSS</a> by `<a class="u" href="http://clairejones.deviantart.com/">ClaireJones</a></sub></div> ]]></description>
