D'you think I could do something nifty that would sell? o_o'?

I was thinking of [finally] ordering them [friggin'] Prismacolor markers to color things with, mostly because Copic is too expensive for me. I mean, I have the money, but I'm saving it just in case I do something incredibly stupid like crash my truck into someone and need to pay them to fix their bumpers or something. Then again, I'm planning to get a job over the summer, so I guess I would make the money I spent on Copics back...

And it's also Christmas today!

MERRY CHRISTMAS! AND OTHER DECEMBER-ISH HOLIDAY!

I hope all you people had good December 25ths. ^_^ Heehee, it was party-riffic with me family. So much fooooood...and my cousin brought his Wii yesterday when we went over to another cousin's house, and we Wii Sports-ed it up! Hurray! It was too bad he only had one controller... T_T Heehee, boxing is good for anger management. I wish I had it the weekend before finals.

So, UCI people [you know who you are] or other schools that had finals before the break, how did your finals go?

I...dunno what I was going to write. I just felt like updating me journal. Hahahaha.

Umm...umm...

I just discovered the magic of OpenCanvas 3.05+! HUZZAH! Photoshop 6 was pissing me off when I was coloring the Halloween picture, so I switched to OpenCanvas and it was MAGICAL! :love: It's so beauteous [behold my vocabulary]! And I can do LINEART in it!

Okay, I'm tired of it.

I finally remembered to go back to deviantART! Yay!

School tomorrow! Noooooooooo...

WHO'S EXCITED FOR KINGDOM HEARTS II? I'M EXCITED FOR KINGDOM HEARTS II!

It makes me wonder if I'll ever develop a video game that gets a fanbase as big as Square's or Nintendo's. Haha, I'm so obsessive over it that I've started my notes on the game and stuff already, and they've been revised at least 5 times.

MIME - flux!

Drunk Duck sucks right now because we can't customize, due to maintenance that has been going on since JULY! :pissedoff: Hahaha. Comic Genesis [ Keenspace ] is too aesthetically displeasing and they ask for your address and phone number so it sucks. Their main page looks nice enough, but there's no "Top Something-or-other" comic listing like Drunk Duck and apart from the main page it's ugly. Hahaha.

[ progress on comic ] I'm on page 15. I had tried starting again, but it's much too late for that, so I'm just continuing this one. It's got sculpted cheese, a confused adolescent security guard, a dead soul trapped outside of her body, and stuff! Mmm, it sounds more exciting in writing than it does in the comic. I think I succeeded in making a mediocre fight-ish scene with not-so-witty cracks at Tokyopop and obsessive manga/anime freaks. I think I tried to put a deep message in it when the situation isn't good for one...

Misted Shell

Joyful smiles that dare not fade.
An open heart is all that's sought
Though the cold breeze deserves it not,
And the void does peace evade,
Leaving heartstrings taut.

Louder actions than words are done;
Assumptions of person are made.
Views of masses cannot trade
What inner cries have won,
And more emotions have been played.

Once there was a darkness creeping,
Under the cracks,
Through the nooks,
The noxious fumes were slowly creeping
Into the heart,
Led not by books.

The books revealed a shining light,
Unbreakable
And strong as steel,
Warming the heart's cold fight,
Leading it on
To allow it to feel.

Darkness found the heart's strong will--
Led by books
Shedding the light.
Darkness seeks the light to kill
But never can
Win the fight.

And so it's down to the mind to choose
With the words
Engraved in books
Whether the darkness or the light must lose.

Minds rarely can decide,
Even with the help of words.
