I quite like it, and I may just keep it. (Devil May Cry, with Julie as an insert. You're all shocked. I know...)

The original idea was for her to have not been present at the time the Sparda family was attacked and separated. As a result, she didn't know what became of them until shortly before the events of DMC3 where she runs into Dante at a bar she sang at. Not too long after that came DMC3. If you want me to delve into detail about her involvement there, just ask

As for this one (which popped into my head after thinking about Hannibal Rising and dealing with some minor back-pain), it's based loosely off of the beginning of that and mostly from the DMC3 manga.

This time, she is with the Sparda family when they were attacked by demons. Dante hid as he was told (just like the manga), Eva died, and Julie and Vergil were captured. Much like with Hannibal and Mischa in Hannibal Rising, he cares for her while they're held captive. The two see their chance to escape when a demon-hunter bursts in and crashes the party. The two run off amid the chaos. The two do whatever they must to get by while enduring many hardships. The lack of charity and kindness from people, as well as trauma from the attack leave them with a bitter view of the world. With that, came the determination for power. As they grew older, they searched for it as they dreamed of a different world, suitable for them. They both knew that she had the soul of a powerful siren dwelling within her. Julie wished to utilize that power, although it wasn't really hers. After doing some research, Vergil finds a way for her to absorb Natalya' soul, thus taking her power. As it was a dangerous process, it had to be done slowly. This process was often painful, often leaving her bedridden. Vergil continued to care for her as he did some research on his own inheritance and the possibility of gaining the power of his father. Throughout these years, they grew closer and became a rather twisted couple. Julie still retained her somewhat childish nature, but her intentions were of a darker sort. During the events of the manga, she begins to worry about Vergil and the involvement of this mysterious man-turned-demon Arkham... While she wished for the success of Vergil's endeavors, she also feared for his life.

"I know what it is that you're trying to do, but it would mean nothing if you weren't here to share it with me."

That about sums it up... oh and Alice hates her guts 'cause she's a full grown woman with a boyfriend (and naturally she'd be attractive. Sirens tend to do that). In other words, Julie has everything she sold her soul to try to get.

Another one of my unoriginal ideas - Reader's Digest version....at 3am

The info on them is also minimal, so if you wanna know more about any characters, feel free to ask! Ok... Time for bed now.

Some guys came knocking at the door this morning and asked if we needed something done about the huge-ass tree we have in our backyard. Of course, that isn't the problem, so Ma asked if they do roofing, and THEY DO!

Unlike the others, they actually assessed the damage and examined all of the damage carefully, while explaining to mom exactly what was wrong. The estimate was even quite affordable!!!!

Once again, God has pulled through for me and my family...

As the writing on my wall says: "For we walk by faith, not by sight."

By friday, we'll no longer have a leaky roof

1. Choose one or a few of your own characters.
2. Make them answer the following questions.
3. Feel free to go ahead and add some questions yourself!!
4. Then tag three people.


1. Virgil
2. Nachiah
3. Mylene
4. Natalya

"Who/what are you?"
1. I'm a devil/human hybrid
2. I'm part of a race of magical beings known as the Kikiato
3. One of the three goddesses of fate.
4. I am the sole ruler of the sirens, and you will learn to revere to me as such.

"Do you have any brothers or sisters?"
1. I have a half-brother and a half-sister. We're all from the same mother, but all three of us have different fathers. Pretty fucked up, huh?
2. Siblings? Well, I have a younger sister by the name of Rosalie.
3. I have my two sisters, Skuld and Verdandi. My real name is "Urd", but I like this name better.
4. It is no more than I and my subjects.

"What's your height and weight?"
1. 5'9" / 157lbs
2. 3'5" / 56lbs
3. 5'1" / 96lbs
4. 5'3" / 108lbs


"How old are you?"
1. 23
2. After doing some conversions throughout the changes of calander dates and whatnot, I've estimated that I'm approximately 1,587 years old
3. You never ask a woman her age. Besides, I don't think I could tell you even if I wanted to... Which actually makes me look like a cougar/cradle-robber.
4. Hmph. You are not deserving of such knowledge, fool.

"Are you a virgin?"
1. Nope
2. No, not that my personal business is really any of your concern.
3. eh-heh-heh.... Weeelllll.... No...
4. Must you delve into such things? or do you have a death-wish?

"Who's your mate/spouse?"
1. I don't have any real solid relationship right now, but I'm doing pretty well for myself regardless.
2. No one at the moment. Having the form of a child makes that quite difficult.
3. Dad doesn't know yet... but I've gotten together with one of Ladon's sons... Actually, I'm not quite sure how well he's gonna take it.
4. I belong to my master... The only being on the face of this earth that has any hold over me.

"Do you have any kids?"
1. Ha ha ha! Noooo. I couldn't handle being a parent.
2. I came close once... I was with a human... A french girl by the name of Manon. I didn't know she was pregnant until the autopsy of her murder The baby was far too under-developed to be saved...
3. I've actually got a child on the way.
4. My subjects and my master's minions are our children.


"What's your favourite food?"
1. If it's food, I'll eat it, but I've got a thing for good japanese food.
2. I'm a connoisseur when it comes to fine dining.
3. I've got a deep love for seafood.
4. Eating is not a necessity.

"Have you killed anyone?"
1. Yeah... but I wasn't quite with it when it happened.
2. Pleanty, but it was necessary.
3. Only to protect myself and my friends from harm. I never did it alone though.
4. There are those who do not deserve life and I see to it that they are silenced.


"Do you hate anyone?"
1. Meh... It's a waste of time.
2. There are indeed those that I despise, but I generally let them be, unless Papa gives me an order to dispose of them.
3. Oh yeah... I've got some grudges... and I can't wait to get rid of her.
4. I hate humans. I hate them all! They are nothing but worthless wretched creatures! A waste of life! They all must die!

"Have any secrets?"
1. I have some wicked abandonment issues from when my mom up and left us.
2. I'm ridiculously clingy and I'm a pancake addict.
3. Just the fact that I'm pregnant. Father doesn't know yet.
4. There is no need for secrets. I don't need anything to have held over my head.


"Do you love anyone?"
1. Romantically, I'll admit I still have a thing for my ex...
2. I don't have any romantic ties now... but I am fond of my new family.
3. The father of my child. I love him more than anything.
4. I only have love for my master.


"What is your job?"
1. I'm the lead guitarist of a small-time rock band called "Devils' Lyric."
2. I'm an assassin
3. Goddess of Fate, of course.
4. Didn't I already tell you that I'm the siren queen. And when my master takes his rightful place as Hell's ruler, I shall become his queen.


"What do you do to relax?"
1. I just kinda mindlessly strum my guitar. I don't really play anything per-se... I just... play. I helps me take my mind off of things.
2. Well, I like to relax with a good pot of tea and some television, but if I'm too tired or stressed out , I just take... ]]> ~Nachiah http://Nachiah.deviantart.com/journal/26547569/ http://Nachiah.deviantart.com/journal/26547569/ Wed, 12 Aug 2009 12:11:11 PDT
ACC had ONCE AGAIN screwed me over. Payments for classes aren't due until the first day of classes, right? Well APPARENTLY the payment for the fall semester was due August 10, 2009, and they dropped all of my classes 'cause I didn't pay it. THOSE FUCKERS HAVEN'T EVEN REVIEWED MY FINANCIAL AID YET!!!!! Now because of this mess, al of my classes are filled and there's no way in HELL I'd be able to straighten this shit out before September.

I am so sick and tired of this bullshit. I might just start taking online classes somewhere and tell ACC to shove it up their pompous money-hungry asses. At least Rite-Aid values my work. Guess I'll give working full-time a shot, or at least go for more hours under part-time.

Well, that ends the update on my miserable life. Guess no one wants me to be educated.

I did this putting in the names of some of my OCs
HERE WE GO!:

1. Have you ever had lunch together with nachiah?
No, but it would be awesome if he made it FOR me. Being 8,000+ years old and having to rely on your own skills does wonders for your cooking skills

2. How do your and virgil's talents add up?
We're both very musical. He can play the guitar way the hell better than I can, but how awesome would it be if he could teach me some of his mad skills?

3. Do you miss julie?
Not at all, since she practically IS me (closest thing to a self-insert ever)

4. What is one thing crystal isn't exactly made for?
Childbirth. She was created with all the femme sex organs, but no eggs in the ovaries. In closing, bio-weapons aren't made to make babies

5. What would mylene not be caught dead in?
A pink super frilly dress with lots of ribbons, bows, and lace.

6. Does isaiah have any pets?
No, but he has a little ghost girl that follows him around and helps him on his cases.

7. What would you do if you hadn't met angela?
(assuming I could meet her) I'd probably have clean urine-free panties xD She's a damn creepy chick.

8. What advice would you give monica?
- Go to anger management
- control her fire magic better when upset
- keep her husband away from her "loose" twin sister.
- Watch what she says
- There's a time and place for everything
- Avoid people who hardcore talk with their hands while they're eating a sandwich and when the subject is something they're passionate about.

9. Does rebecca make you hot?
If I were a lesbian, she probably would xD

10. If priscilla and virgil were locked in the same (really small) room for longer than a day, what would most likely happen?
They'd probably chill out for awhile as they introduce themselves. Priscilla would talk about her passion for adventuring, and Virgil would go on about his passion for rock, his guitar, and his band "Devil's Lyric." Being the enough-to-say-so horndog that he is. he'd more than likely make a comment about her boobs, which'd get him a prompt ember in the face. Finally, upon discovering she's only 15 (he's 23), he'd rock back and forth in a corner worrying if he developed a sudden case of pedophilia. Once all that is said and done, they'd try to make some elaborate plan to escape just to have someone open the dorr for them just as they're about to execute said plan.

Did you kiss someone before you were sixteen?
Absotively not

Are you good at hiding your feelings?
Being an actress, I can if I need to, but it's not beneficial, so I don't.

Do you wave when you see people you know?
That depends on my relationship with that person...

Who are you disappointed in right now?
No one at the moment

Do you have trust issues?
Sure do. I've been taken advantage of enough to thoroughly investigate someone before 110% trusting them... but even then I have my doubts (that I feel bad for when I'm proven wrong).

Do you drink Red Bull or any other energy drink on a regular basis?
GOD NO!! Someone with panic disorder should NEVER drink something with that much caffeine. That's just asking for a panic attack, even on medication.

What were you doing at 11:00 AM?
Cat-napping until my 2pm class

Name something you have in common with all of your siblings?
We all have the same father (I have a half-brother on dad's side).

Who is the last person who wrote a letter to you on paper?
The ever awesome Shelby that I met at Keuka college during an all girls baptist thing. Good times...

Have you ever had the same dream more than once?
Very rarely, and when I do, it's a bad sign.

Do you prefer regular or chocolate milk?
Chocolate until it gets warm... then neither.

Can you whistle?
Yeah, but it isn't the prettiest thing in the world.

What color are the pants you're wearing?
black stretch pants under a light blue dress.

Do you have a trampoline at your house?
A small one for exercising in the basement.

Last song you sang out loud?
Last night for the play I was doing. I had to sing a portion of Helen Reddy's "I Am Woman."

Would you ever get a tattoo?
As soon as I get my check, I promised my sister we'd get matching tatoos (a late birthday present).

Describe your cellular phone?
Dead O.o

Are you usually the first to say sorry when you're in a fight, or the last?
I can't stand those things, so I avoid it altogether, though if I get brave enough to face the person (and it wasn't their fault) I will be the first.

Have you ever gotten alcohol poisoning?
Nope. Never been drunk either... no do I plan to be.

Have you ever been suspended?
No

Do you find the opposite sex confusing?
I just plain don't think about it. Things are what they are.

How has this week been?
Chaotic. Having to do this play and missing practically ALL of my classes for this week because of it has been very stressful. As fun as the play was, I'm glad it's over.

Why did you last laugh really hard?
I watched the new Jeff Dunham special last night.

Do you like someone?
A few people (even real ones! Oooooo...) The ficticious ones, you know. The real ones, I won't tell.

Where is your boyfriend / girlfriend at the moment?
Non-existant

Are you proud of the person you've become?
Despite the stressors and problems with school and such, I am.

What's wrong with you right now?
I'm still being medically treated for panic disorder and I have fibromyalgia.

Do you think relationships are ever really worth it?
They are. The problem is just that people jump into them too fast. You've gotta be able to take care of yourself before you can give yourself to someone else, and receive them as well.

Could you go the rest of your life without smoking weed?
Of course I can! I've done it so far, and I don't think the rest of my life will be a problem. (If this is my future self reading this and you are smoking weed, slap yourself right now and KICK THE HABIT ALREADY!!!!).

Can you recall the last time you sincerely liked someone a lot?
Sure can.

Are you slowly drifting away from someone?
I often wonder about that these days. It's hard to keep up with friends and whatnot when you're dealing with things like college and work and all that.

Have you ever fallen asleep on someone?
Quite a few times.

Of course, I'm not talking about the little important practical things and skills that you learn throughout life. People, especially in this country, only care about how high your test scores are...

It doesn't matter what skills you have to offer. You are nothing unless you're book-smart. You have to get a college education to get anywhere in life, which of course, means getting good grades despite the costs of going to college. This, of course, means that we have to be in debt for the rest of our lives just to make money.

Then, there are those of us that aren't good at school...

We try, but fail... eventually, we get discouraged and quit. What are people doing about it? Nothing, for the most part...

So here I am, doomed to a lifetime of community college because of some damned required classes needed to transfer. The only A's I've ever gotten since I started Jr High were in the performing arts (and sometimes english would be B's).

It just gives you the feeling like you don't have anything to offer anyone. The things you already know (in my case, my people skills) don't matter. Not even my artistic skills are important to anyone out there (and apparently not to many other people, since I never get comments and stuff, except on here, and that's when I post some fanart or something). That brings me to another issue... The internet is very lonely for me. I have plenty of IRL friends, but I only see them at school. I STILL have no liscence and no car, as well as no job... That, of course, means I can only spends my days sitting on my ass at home in my solitude (when I'm not at school). It's pitiful when you have NO friends on the internet except for your socially awkward (no offense guys, I know it's an actual psychological condition) IRL ones (that have plenty of internet buds).

I don't know what I'm gonna do. I'm already on my 3rd year at a 2 year school. That doesn't say much for me already... I thought my reason was my anxiety... I'm being treated for it, and it's working very very well... But I'm still doing horrible at school.

Where did I go wrong?

I know I've got alot of art related stuff to do, but I've been SOOOOO busy with school. I'll get it all done as soon as I'm able.

Now on to business...

I got up this morning thinking, "ugh... long-ass day.." 'cause of course, no one wants to be in school from 11-8:45. So I drag myself to class anyway like a good girl and shuffle through the day. After my first class, I ran into some friends in theatre who were going to go see a magic show that was on-campus today. I didn't have any classes for a couple of hours, so I figured why the hell not?

This guy was amazing!! (you people on here attending ACC that missed it REALLY missed out)

He does alot of illusionist type magic like turning a drawing of a bowling ball into a real one (just for a general idea). What has the the most pumped, is that for the first time in my life, I was chosen as a volunteer!!!

He had me choose a card and stand in the corner after I've shuffled the deck. He's an ice-hockey fan, so he had a jersey he wore and a hockey stick for the trick. He wanted me to throw the deck of cards up in the air (and he would supposedly hit the one I picked) when he said so. Now he tricked me there... he didn't say there was gonna be a countdown, so I threw up the cards to early. We all had a good laugh. So then he moved to plan "B". He would count to 3, then I'd say "go!" So I did, and these cards came shooting out of his suitcase thing. The one I picked ended up on the hockey stick and was on the back of his jersey! I know it's all a trick (and the mess up was intentional), but it's still so amazing to see it happen!

You guys missed out on something amazing. Now all I have to do is survive 3 hours of straight lecture, and I'm home free!

Catch all y'all later!

1) How would your character react if he suddenly appeared in your house?
He would most likely wonder just where he was while swearing to never do whatever it was that he was doing at the time again.


2) How would you react if he suddenly appeared in your house?
I would make a happy little mess in my panties xD


3) What would your parents say if they saw your character in the house?
So that's him, huh....


4) Where would you take your character on his first day of realism?
We'd walk around town and stuff since neither of us can drive. We'd go to the bookstore to look at stuff, then possibly to our local second-hand shop (we emo-kids love those places). We'd totally get food from the local sub shop and follow it up with a rousing round of guitar hero, in which he'd probably p'wn me.The day would end with us going to Juckett Park where he'd play his guitar for the hell of it.


5) Let's say you are there, and someone there began to harass you and your character. What would you do?
I would try to ignore it, but Virgil would harass the person right back while proving that he's way more awesome than they (or that his ego's bigger. Whatever works).

6) If your character became lost in your town/city would you try to find him?
DEFINATELY! He's too pretty to be lost D:


7) Let's say its just you and your character at home alone, how would you pass the time?
We'd chill out and watch tv. If there was nothing on, we'd pick a channel and make fun of it. I'd ask him a bunch of stuff about being on tour with his band, "Devil's Lyric," and have him play a few things for me. In return, he'd probably make me sing for him (since I usually mention that I like to sing). Then we'd both rock out to Green Day and stuff. If things went really well, we'd do some "creative exercises" together. <3


8) Pretend your character came across his/her weakness. What would you do to help them?
(Holy water = much ouchies) I'd quickly give him a towel or something to dry off with, and then fend off that bible-thumping biznitch with the closest sharp object. How that person would get into my house, much less know he's a half-devil, I'll never know... Anyway, I'd call the police after I kick that individual out of my house and say that someone tried to break in, and give a full description so they can be locked away, and that they were threatening my friend. I wouldn't tell them he was attacked unless he still hadn't recovered by the time the police arrive.


9) Okay, your character's arch nemesis came to battle him. What would happen?
Uhhh... He doesn't really have an arch-nemesis to be honest... But for the interest of this question, let's say he does:

He would tell me to go to a safe place, like my room or something, and he'd totally battle that dude to the death. The battle would be outside (of course) and it would be totally epic. He'd be all in like some devil-form (which I will create a design for someday), and the other dude'll do his thing. It would be a battle in the air with powers and sharp objects. E-P-I-C!!!!!


10)Yay! Your character wins! What would he do to celebrate?
He would taunt the dude's dead self until he runs out of things to say. Then he would go back inside like nothing ever happened. For the sake of continuing story and suspense, it would turn out that the dude's not dead, and the dude retreats swearing vengence.


11)Alright, time for your character to go back to their world. How would you say goodbye?
I wouldn't wanna say goodbye, and I'd more than likely cry and stuff. We'd hug eachother (and maybe kiss or make out or something if it got to the point of "bedroom aerobics" earlier), and ... uhhh... say goodbye I guess. He'd give me something to remember him by, like a guitar pick or one of his rings or something, and then be off back to fiction-land.

So we're finally getting to that time again... Summer. Hell yeah!

Now that I have a significant amount of time off, I can work on finishing all of those submissions. I've had several, but I've been unable to finish them. On another note, I don't have much access to a scanner (as 's desktop is usually not in use and is a pain in the ass to use). I'll probably have to harass mom about that. I still have a couple of works that I've intended to finish digitally that I will finish, and I have several works in my sketchbook and a notebook that I wanna put out there.

I haven't really done much in the way of the Shinigami series. I did manage to find that prologue that almost was the intro to my short story, and I will revise that. Also, I've got another chapter to work on as inspired by a dream I had recently. Perhaps the clicheed love-interest shall be introduced as per the dream. Needless to say, I intend to work on this over the summer as much as possible.

The reason I have so much free time this summer is my inability to (once again) get a job. This time, it's due to a new medication that I still have to get, and make sure it works. As some of you know, I suffer from Panic Disorder, and I've spent most of the year seeing a psychologist to get that straightened out. I'll be taking some kind of PRN, which means I'll be taking it as needed as opposed to having to take it every day. Hopefully this will help. I'm just glad that Mom's being so supportive about the whole thing. We even have a trip planned from August to test out my progress. She'll even take me home if needed, since it won't be too far out. I'm sure the medication will help significantly for those situations beyond my control. Otherwise, I can handle it pretty well on my own.

On a small side-note, I got my hair cut short again. My friend tells me that it (along with my black hair dye I love so much and smudged black eyeliner from a days worth of wear and tear) makes me look like L from Death Note. I'll be sure to have fun with that.

Well, I think that about covers everything. Now I think it's time for me to get back to helping making those homemade sugar cookies.

-Complete 1st story

20. Is your character attractive?
Quite, in my opinion :3

Stole this from "Morgan of the Living Dead"

Have you ever told anyone you were okay when you really weren't?
A few times. I've felt that they don't need to be bogged down with my problems, but I ended up caving anyway.

Do you have a friend of the opposite sex that you should just pretty much be with?
I have thought that once or twice.

Do you think anyone in general out there loves you?
Yeah. I'm way past the true-blue-prepubscent-whiny-emo stage of my life where I thought that was far from the truth.


Ever given your all to someone who walked away?
No. The ones that left, I gave way too little.


What have you done so far today?
I woke up at around noon, went out to get ice cream with , checked my myspace page, posted a bulletin and started filling this thing out.


Ever really liked/loved someone that wasn't good for you?
I almost did. Thankfully he started creeping me out before I could fall for him entirely.



The last time you kissed someone, was it someone you see yourself kissing over and over again?
I've never even been kissed.



Have you ever hooked up with one of your ex's best friends?
I've also never dated.



Do you talk a lot?
To my friends, I find it hard to stop blabbing about, like, everything.

Wake up next to anyone this morning? Who?
nope.





Can you play pool?
I'm not too good. I don't even know most of the rules. But I do know how to properly hit the ball without scratching the table.

Name 3 thoughts at this exact moment?
- I hope I can get a job this summer
- I still can't believe I have a myspace page
- Should I play Zelda or Starfox?



Did you cry today?
nope

Where were you at 8:00 this morning?
Sleeping in 's room

Are you a generally clean or messy person?
I try to be clean, but I end up being quite messy.

Nope. My Mom's gonna be here, and my sister will when she gets out of work.

Have anything you wish you could tell someone but can't?
Sure do.




How do you feel about babies?
I wouldn't wanna have any of my own. There are so many kids out there without parents... Besides, with my messed up genetics, this kid'll end up having a whole mess of problems.





Who do you make fun of the most?
The Joneses. It's just too easy, but they're such good sports about it. They also tell me when I've taken it too far.

Does your mom vacuum early in the morning, when you're sleeping?
Not anymore. She used to back when our dog was still alive. All 130 pounds of her shed so much that Ma would have to vacuum once a day.



Do you find it in your heart to forgive?
I'm not proud of this, but it has taken me several years to forgive some people.

Has anyone ever told you that you have pretty eyes?
I've been told that they're interesting and cool 'cause they're weird (and they are)... (in a good way).





How many people of the oppossite sex have you cried over?
Just a couple

Do you like to smile?
Who wouldn't want to smile at least once in their lives? Even if it's for a fleeting moment, it's still happiness, and that's something to be treasured.

5'2"

Water

Blue jeans with a brown cami and my green wool army-esque coat that I got from Hot Topic.

I owe the school about $350 on top of that.

According to the bitch at the counter, the school sent me a letter about it March 18th. I never got that letter.

So now I have to kiss the state's ass in order to get my aid back. Wonderful.

For you locals... That means no refund. I'm just as broke as ever, and probably will be until the winter, unless I can actually get a job this summer, unlike last year where I wasn't apparently good enough to even interview in any establishment I could reach on foot.

Great day to be alive, huh?

Don't get me wrong, the show's coming along great... with what the actors are doing. The people in tech and the director need to get their shit together on their own time and stop wasting ours.

The cast has had it. We never start on time because of the shit that's going on, so we're left to wait while everyone else takes care of things that they should;ve done long ago. They do nothing but waste our time. Yesterday's dress rehersal was 12 fucking hours long when the show only lasts for 2 at the most. We ended up spending a good majority of that time sitting around on our asses and waiting for something constructive to happen. Here's the kicker:
In those 12 hours, we only had time to run through the show once.

Today was no different. I had to get out of my speech class early to get to rehersal early. Okay. Fine... So then she waits a fucking hour before she starts rehersal. Then of course, the lighting cues were off, so we had to bring everything to a screeching halt while they took care of that. Rehersal started at 4 and should've ended at 6... perhaps 6:30 to get notes and stuff...

I DIDN'T EVEN LEAVE UNTIL 8

...which off course meant that I couldn't get home until 8:30.

Oh yeah... I have to go in again at 9am...for the show to start at 10:30! What the fuck am I going to do with an hour and a half? It only takes me 15 minutes to get ready for a show.

I swear to God, if we have our rehersal at the scheduled time after that, I'm gonna kill somebody. I'm not gonna sit around on-campus for 4 fucking hours just to waste my time on-stage with a supposed "rehersal" for quite possibly another 2-4 hours. I don't have a car, or any money so I can eat. I don't have anything to bring with me, as we don't have much food at home that doesn't need to be refrigerated or isn't in a can.

I'm so sick of this shit. I just want this show to be over. I'm sure it'll turn out great, but that doesn't make it any less hard on the cast that has a director with ridiculous expectations.
Out of the two choices, why in God's name did she pick the hardest one?

Now how did that get out there...?

I got this from, who got this from someone else.
As she said in her journal, if you're just gonna flame me for posting this, don't even bother saying anything.

.........................

I am the mother who is not allowed to even visit the children I bore, nursed, and raised. The court says I am an unfit mother because I now live with another woman.

I am the boy who never finished high school, because I got called a fag everyday

I am the girl kicked out of her home because I confided in my mother that I am a lesbian.

I am the prostitute working the streets because nobody will hire a transsexual woman.

I am the sister who holds her gay brother tight through the painful, tear-filled nights.

We are the parents who buried our daughter long before her time.

I am the man who died alone in the hospital because they would not let my partner of twenty-seven years into the room.

I am the foster child who wakes up with nightmares of being taken away from the two fathers who are the only loving family I have ever had. I wish they could adopt me.

I am not one of the lucky ones. I killed myself just weeks before graduating high school. It was simply too much to bear.

We are the couple who had the realtor hang up on us when she found out we wanted to rent a one-bedroom for two men.

I am the person who never knows which bathroom I should use if I want to avoid getting the management called on me.

I am the domestic-violence survivor who found the support system grow suddenly cold and distant when they found out my abusive partner is also a woman.

I am the domestic-violence survivor who has no support system to turn to because I am male.

I am the father who has never hugged his son because I grew up afraid to show affection to other men.

I am the home-economics teacher who always wanted to teach gym until someone told me that only lesbians do that.

I am the woman who died when the EMTs stopped treating me as soon as they realized I was transsexual.

I am the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a much better person if I didnt have to always deal with society hating me.

I am the man who stopped attending church, not because I don't believe, but because they closed their doors to my kind.

I am a warrior for my country serving proud, but can't be my true self because gays aren't allowed in the military.

I am the person who has to hide what this world needs most, love.

I am the person ashamed to tell my own friends I'm a lesbian, because they constantly make fun of them.

I am the boy tied to a fence, beaten to a bloody pulp and left to die because two straight men wanted to "teach me a lesson."


This is the boy, Matthew Shepard. On October 7, 1998 Aaron McKinney and Russell Henderson lead him to a remote area east of Laramie where they demonstrated unimaginable acts of hate. Matthew was tied to a split-rail fence where he was beaten and left to die in the cold of the night. Almost 18 hours later he was found by a cyclist who initially mistook him for a scarecrow. Matthew died on October 12 at 12:53 am at a hospital in Fort Collins, Colorado. KILLED BECAUSE HE WAS GAY!!!

I stole this from who stole this from and so forth.

Character Meme:
The Rules: Pick 12 of your characters, don't look at the questions beforehand, then answer the questions.

1. Julie
2. Virgil
3. Derdeka
4. Azrael
5. Mary
6. Nachah
7. Mylene
8. Adrian
9. Lynn
10. Isaiah
11. Angela
12. Rebecca



1) Who would make a better college professor: 6 (Nachiah) , or 11 (Angela) ?
Nachiah by a longshot. He's got 8,000+ years of experience, and he actually likes to spread the wealth of knowledge. Angela just doesn't give a damn.

2) Do you think 2 (Virgil) is hot? How hot?
Yes. Quite sexy. He's bringing sexy back. Oh yeah.

3) 12 (Rebecca) sends 8 (Adrian) on a mission. What is it, and does it succeed?
Rebecca would send Adrian back to his home (which is Hell) to get a powerful sword, as she likes pointy things. Maybe she'd even rope his son, Virgil, into it as well.

4) What is, or would be, 9 (Lynn)'s favorite book?
Bram Stoker's Dracula or Anne Rice's Interview With A Vampire. I'm sure she's curious enough to see what the humans say about her kind.


5) Would it make more sense for 2 (Virgil) to swear fealty to 6 (Nachiah)or the other way around?
It would make pleanty of sense for Virgil to swear fealty to Nachiah, as he is the emporer of the Kikiato (a clan of white magic weilding fox-demons)... aside from the fact that Virgil is a devil/human hybrid.


6) For some reason, 5 (Mary) is looking for a room-mate. Should they share a studio apartment with 9 (Lynn)or 10 (Isaiah) ?
Lynn, definately. They're sister's after all. Isaiah's lifestyle isn't exactly Mary's cup of tea anyway.


7) 2 (Virgil), 7 (Mylene) , and 12 (Rebecca) have dinner together. Where do they go, and what do they discuss?
I don't really know where they would go. Definately someplace ritzier than a fast-food joint. As for what they'd discuss, Mylene and Rebecca would chat about everyday things like a mother and daughter would do. I don't know how Virgil would fit into the discussion, though.


8) 3 (Derdeka) challenges 10 (Isaiah) to a duel. What happens?
They would fight until Derdeka realises that Isaiah is the reincarnation of her love, Azrael. Then theyd drop their weapons and have a touching moment of reunion.


10) Suggest a title for a story in which 7((Mylene) and 12 (Rebecca) both attain what they most desire.
Family Ties

11) What kind of plot device would you use if you wanted 4 (Azrael) and 1 (Julie) to work together?
Since Azrael is an angel of death, Julie would die, and she wouold have to agree to work with him in order to bring her back to life.


12) If 7 (Mylene) visited you for the weekend, how would you get along?
We'd get along ok. I'd have to be careful about what I reveal to her though... she can be quite the bitch ><


13) If you could command 3 (Derdeka) to perform any one task or service for you, what would it be?
I'd have her find a way to make absolutely sure that me, my friends and my family would all make it into heaven when we die. She is, after all, the angel of salvation.



14) Does anyone on your friends list resemble 11 (Angela) ?
Not in the least.

15) If 2 (Virgil) had to choose sides between 4 (Mary) and 5 (Azrael),which would it be?
Azrael's much more trustworthy than any of the fates.


16) What might 10 (Isaiah) shout while charging into battle?
Probably something taunting and assinine. Anything ranging from "prepare yourself!" to "your mom!"

17) If you chose a song to represent 8 (Adrian),which song would you choose?
Dark Palace of Waterfalls - Castlevania: Lament of Innocence


18) 1 (Julie),6 (Nachiah) ,and 12 (Rebecca) are having dim sum at a Chinese restaurant. There is only one scallion pancake left, and they all reach for it at the same time. Who gets to eat it?
Rebecca. Julie's got no chance, since she's not a fighter by any means, and Nachiah's too classy to fight with someone over food. Besides, you don't typically mess with the grand-daughter of the dragon god who is also the daughter of a goddess of fate.



19) What might be a good pick-up line for 2 (Virgil) to use on 10 (Isaiah)?
I cannot in good conscience answer th... ]]> ~Nachiah http://Nachiah.deviantart.com/journal/16797547/ http://Nachiah.deviantart.com/journal/16797547/ Sat, 09 Feb 2008 09:17:05 PST who stole it from his sister,

When was the last time you washed your hands?
When I got up this morning (about an hour ago)

What is your favorite city?
Of all the places I've been, I'd have to say my hometown.

Would you rather get fast food, or go on a picnic?
A picnic would be a good change of pace, but I wouldn't recommend doing it today. The weather's pretty much shit ><

Have you gotten your hair cut recently?
I was going to, but then I got a part in the spring play. I don't think getting it cut the way I want to would fit my part very well.

What's one song that gets stuck on your mind a lot?
I don't have any single answer for that. Lately though, it's been "My Own Enemy" by Thousand Foot Krutch - which in my mind is the sexiest song I've ever heard. Don't know why, but it just is to me.

Is there a movie that you've seen countless times?
Dogma

When was the last time you felt really excited?
This morning when I reminded myself that Devil May Cry 4 comes out today!!!!

Have you ever heard of the band Strawberry Alarm Clock?
Can't say I have.

Will you be old enough to vote in the next presidential election?
Definately. I'm even registered and everything.

Is it still dark out when you wake up for school?
Nah. I get up at about 7:30 - 8:00.

Have you ever watched an entire season of a show at one time?
Not yet, but I have all of season 2 of House. When I feel really bored, I'll give it a shot.

Do you like 90s music?
The rock and the country from that era.

Would you rather buy clothes or jewelry?
As much as I could use new clothes, shopping for jewelry is ALOT less frustrating. When you're my size, the designers assume that you're either a cheap whore or a grandma. Nothing in-between.

Do you ever work out?
I have a membership at the YMCA, so I go every so often.

Is your family close?
Just me and my Mom, really...

Do you go to a big school or a small school?
Community colleges are generally small, and this one is no exception.

What was you last comment on facebook/myspace about?
I don't have either of them.

Are your parents strict?
Ma's pretty cool about it. She trusts me enough to make my own rational decisions and stay out of trouble.

Are you opinionated?
I try not to, as that's what gets people into trouble.

Do you like watching any sports?
Just NASCAR (Daytona 500 next weekend!!!!)

Have you ever seen a Broadway show?
No, but a friend of mine from my theatre classes is bound and determined to get me to see one.

What's on your mouse pad?
Lots of blue. <3

Do you like small dogs?
Yeah. They're cute.

Do you like red hair?
I can dig it.

Have you seen the show America's Next Top Model?
I've seen a couple of episodes from the lack of anything else on at the time. Basic cable'll do that to you. Fortunately, I don't have that problem anymore.

What's the longest book you've ever read?
I'm still working on the Divine Comedy, and when I finish that, that'll be the one.

Do you like short surveys, or long ones?
Either or... both give me something to do.

How many days a week do you work, if any?
5, if school counts... most of those days, I'm on-campus from 9-6.

Have you even been in a tree house?
Only once.

Do you like coffee?
I hate it, and hiss at it like it's some kinda sin-pile.

Is there a swing set in your backyard?
No, and there never was.

What time do you normally fall asleep?
Anytime between 11pm and 1am.

Who is one person that frustrates you easily?
I'll play nice, and not name any names.

What day of the week would you like it to be?
Friday.

What does the nearest lamp took like?
It's invisible O.O

Do you like camouflage?
It's ok.

How about stripes?
Hell, no

Do you like the color pink?
Even less so than stripes.

Do you like debating?
I HATE IT!!! It's nothing more than a controlled argument, and arguments are not something I deal with well. For serious.

But wait. It gets better...

Today in class, my professor showed us a part of this video (I can't remember the name of it) that basically told us that the government and the international banking system are nothing but giant conspiracies. That film tried to tell us that the big bankers actually started all of the wars starting from WWI by provoking the other side somehow... That it was all staged.

But wait again... There's more!

It went on to say that our current president or someone else in the government signed an agreement to unify the US, Canada, and Mexico into one nation, and we'd go under a new currency called "the Amero." Even better, the constitution would become obsolete. All of this... done without ANYONE knowing. Ha! That's such crap, I could die laughing.

Apparently, according to these people, we're all ignorant of the truth, and that all of our various forms of entertainment are used to brainwash us and keep us ignorant. Oh yeah, and apparently, we're all gonna have these chips in us that'll make us obey the government without question. I'm not talkin' the robotic type mind-control thing... I mean that if they do something the government doesn't like (which can be detected through the chip that'll supposedly monitor our EVERY move), they'll shut off the chip which'll end your ability to buy or sell things, or even get inside of any facility.

Oh yeah, and it goes on to say that these big-wigs will eventually take over the world and blah, blah, blah...

The best part: someone in the class actually believed this stuff. She also went ahead and related it to the book of Revelations in the Bible, and said that this chip would be "the mark of the beast" this book talks about. She also said that the person who'd take power in this theory would pretty much be the anti-christ.

If I had to make my own theory about this, I'd say that the people that are broadcasting this stuff wants all the power. The easiest way to control people is through fear, and what better causes fear than conspiracy! This fear gives them the attention they need, as well as the support. People who believe this stuff won't be distracted by the media or anything, so they've got pleanty of time on their hands, that's for sure. Then they'd overthrow the government, and blah, blah, blah, cliched movie plot twist, omg they're the bad ones, not so happy ending, blah...

ok... so I don't believe any of this either. I just wanted to try my hand at over-thinking and coming up with some crazy-ass theory.

So... yeah. I still believe that people over-analyse things too much for their own good. This, I believe is the result of such acts of too much thinking.

Seriously people! The general public are more powerful than you think in terms of numbers. Not all people in the government are corrupt. Besides, we have elections for a reason, people! That could also be the same reason for not being able to be in office for more than two terms. Stop throwing yourselves into a panicked frenzy over what could be nothing at all!!!! Anxiety is not a happy thing, trust me.

To do: Open your music player. Press shuffle. Press play. Each track in the order it comes up is the soundtrack of your life.

Opening credit: Tekken 5 - Moonlit Wilderness

A fight scene to start with? How exciting! It's simply fabulous!

Waking up: Breath of Fire 3 - Donden

Ok... So that wasn't just a dream. (Out of one fight and into another) Did I fall asleep during that boss-fight? Thanks for the panacea. I really didn't wanna die while being unconcious and useless.

Average day: Breath of Fire 4 - Tiny Villiage in the Desert

Desert living is average-mc-normal, right?

First date: Silent Hill 4 - Room of Angel

So... Walter, was it? I hear you have quite the criminal record... Say, this blind date isn't really working out for me, but I have a friend who would be totally on-board with dating you... For serious.

Falling in love: Biohazard 0 - Safe Haven

Wow... Thank God for this typewriter and box. Those zombies sure are scary. Say, hypothetically speaking... if we were about to be eaten or otherwise killed, and we knew for a fact that we had five minutes to live... would you do me?... That's ok, Wesker... take your time.

Breaking up: Breath of Fire 3 - Cadaver

He said no... damn... So now I crawl back to my party with the most emo song in the game.

Getting back together: Silent Hill 2 - Ashes and Ghost

Ummm.. We weren't even together in the first place, but I'm sure the world would turn upside down and just about end if he did actually agree.

Secret love: Silent Hill 3 - End of Small Sanctuary

Well, now that I've accepted that Wesker won't touch me with a ten-foot pole, I've moved on to bigger and better things... Like crossed-over characters, like my my ever so-sexy (once I designed him more as a human) Fox. (That poor guy has had me to deal with since I was like 7).

Life's okay: Sonic 2 - Aquatic Ruin

Life's so awesome, I'm gonna run, and run, and run, and not drown, and not get arrow'd, and run, and run....

Mental breakdown: Tales of Symphonia - Last Battle ~ Will

Wow... mental breakdown...no kidding. There's so much pressure inhaving to save the world from this sister-obsessed psycho... Not to mention this place in itself is freakin' trippy.

Driving: Breath of Fire 4 - Landscape

I guess they heard that I can't drive. No wonder the place is so quiet, peaceful, and people-less.

Learning a lesson: Enya - Evening Falls

Never trust strange figures in the darkness... Wait... TRUST THEM! Then you can be blissful in your escape from the world.

Deep thought: Silent Hill 2 - Day of Night

Ok self... pull yourself together... Now just why is everything so damn messed up?

Flashback: Breath of Fire 3 - Sigh of the Faerie

Yeah... there was this one time where the party (myself included) went to this villiage in a ring of flowers....

Partying: Silent Hill 3 - Dance with Night Wind

Why the hell are we partying? Harry Mason is dead! That's no reason to party!!! We must KILL that bitch, Claudia for her "deeds".



Happy dance: Tales of Symphonia - Theme of Presea

... Honestly... Do you think that girl is even CAPABLE of doing a HAPPY DANCE??

Regretting: Breath of Fire 4 - Men of War

Another RANDOM BATTLE???? Oh shit... I totally regret selling all of our items and weapons to buy food...which I ate... all of...

Long night alone: Soul Reaver - Necropolis

... PLEASE DON'T LEAVE ME HERE ALONE!!! I DON'T WANNA BE EATEN AND DIE!!!!!! HELP MEEEEEEE!!!

Death scene: Breath of Fire 3 - Conflict of Dragons

It's a very painful death... by Teepo... as freakin' dragon lord. In short - I was stepped on.

Funeral: Breath of Fire 3 - Tears

At least I know my party will miss me...


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now for the MUSIC ASSOCIATION CHALLENGE!!!

Are you people familiar with the word-association exercise? Well, it's something like that, but I call it "music association."

Are you people familiar with the word-association exercise? Well, it's something like that, but I call it "music association."

First off, you need a brand new sketchbook or notebook. Even a folder of printer paper works. Just make sure that it's completely blank when you first begin the challenge.

This thing you choose will be what you use for this challenge, and ONLY for this challenge.

Here's the challenge:
Every time you hear a song that inspires you to draw something (ANYTHING), you must draw it in that notebook/sketchbook/folder. It can't go anywhere else, nor can any outside work go into that book. Don't forget to write the title of that song somewhere on that work of art so you don't forget what inspired it!

You don't have to submit it to deviantart, but should you decide to, you have to use the title of the song as your deviation title.

Just so you know, I'll be participating in this, too.

Have fun!

1. Choose a few of your own characters. Five at the most.
2. Make them answer the following questions.
3. Then tag three people.
4. Feel free to go ahead and add some questions yourself!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1. Nachiah
2. Virgil
3. Mary
4. Julie
5. Angela

A.Are you a boy or a girl?
1. Let's take this opportunity to clear the air of any misunderstandings. I am a male, and I wear robes, not dresses.
2. I should think I'm obviously a guy.
3. Of course I'm a girl, silly! Guys don't ever wear dresses... right?
4. Either I'm a girl, or I'm the scrawniest guy with boobs I've ever seen in my life.
5. ...Female.

B.How old are you?
1. Somewhere around 8 and a half thousand years old... That's just an estimate, really. At my age, you tend to lose track of these things.
2. 20 years young.
3. Uhhh... I don't really know. Maybe I should ask someone... LOKI-SAMA!!!
4. I don't care what you people say. I'm 19, not 12...
5. ...16

C. YOU WANT A HUG?? XD
1. Judging by that absolutely idiotic face placed after the question, I would have to decline.
2. That depends... Who are you, and what's your definition of "hug"?
3. Of course!
4. I guess... You're not some kind of crazy stalker/rapist, are you?
5. ... Don't touch me.

D. You got any bad habits?
1. I speak what's on my mind with absolutely no reservations... though people do tell me that the insults placed inbetween are far from necessary. I also enjoy manipulating almost everything that breathes for my own personal gain.
2. ... I've been told that I'm impulsive, loud, outspoken, and whatnot... but most people call that stupid (WHICH I'M NOT!).
3. Well, Loki-sama tells me that I'm too trusting... but I know one thing for sure. I love teddy-bears!!!! ^.^
4. When I talk about myself, I just go on, and on, and on... Just ask Virgil. He's heard just about everything whether he's wanted to or not. Which is one of the many reasons why I think... (this part has been edited out to shorten this form significantly).
5. ...Keep this up, and you'll become my next blood-sacrifice.

E. Favourite food?
1. I'm not too nit-picky about what food I eat... it all about how it's prepared... Though I do remember a portion of my early childhood when I was a pancake addict.
2. ... Did you know that there's such a thing as aerosol cream cheese? Seriously, that stuff is addicting... which is bad 'cause it's damned near impossible to find!
3. Ice cream! It's really really cold, but it's really good.
4. I don't care, really. I just like food... as long as it doesn't have coconut, pecans, or tomatoes in them... Allergies suck.
5. ...I do quite like lobster bisque. Honestly, is there a point to all of this?

F. Favourite Ice cream flavor?
1. I try to stay away from it.
2. Dude, this might sound weird, but believe me... mint chocolate cookie. It exists, and it rocks!
3. I love it all!
4. There was this banana split kind in the small pints that I tried once... I can't remember the brand to save my life, but I'll know it when I see it.
5. ...You still haven't answered my previous question.

G. Who's your mate/spouse?
1. I've had several in my lifetime... It's easy to go through so many when all of the people you date have such a terribly short lifespan. As of right now, I'm single.
2. That would be my Julie.
3. Loki-sama! <3
4. Virgil.
5. ...That's none of your concern.

H. You a virgin?
1. To live as long as I have and never have sex? Why, that's simply unheard of...
2. Heh-heh-heh-heh-heh...*devilish grin*
3. No. Not really.
4. I think Virgil's answer says it all (and DAMN is it fun!).
5. ...Stop wasting my time.


J. Killed anyone?
1. Several people... for many reasons, including "just to do it."
2. Only when I've had to. Gotta protect what's mine - my life included.
3. Of course not! Besides, that's Loki-sama's job... no matter how much I don't like it
4. I'm lucky to be able to kill a fly. Virgil usually gets the job done anyway... when he has to. Personally, if I were able to, I'd rid this earth of a few idiots...
5. ...Yes.

K. Hate anyone?
1. It's pointless to hold a grudge... especially when you just kill the people that cross you. If there's a problem, destroy the source.<... ]]> ~Nachiah http://Nachiah.deviantart.com/journal/15831082/ http://Nachiah.deviantart.com/journal/15831082/ Fri, 07 Dec 2007 07:22:00 PST
I had to babysit my usual two - Adam and Kayla - last night. Everything was going well, and it was dinner time. The problem wasn't the food, but the drinks. I asked them what they wanted, and we all agreed that the apple cider in the fridge sounded good. I poured some out for the three of us. Adam said that it was good, but Kayla said it tasted sour. I took a taste of mine, and whaddya know... it had gone so bad, it fermented. I checked the date, and it was a little more than a month past due. Before they could drink any more of it, I told them that it went bad, and gave them milk to drink (since that was their second choice). That was funny... but pretty bad. I also decided to not tell their parents that they had a little bit of the fermented cider.

As for other things, finals are coming up. My professor for my acting class has been giving me a hard time about the final project. For that, we had to pick a partner and a short scene to memorize and perform on the 20th. Even though I was in the show, and I have told her a million times before that I have had quite a bit of acting experience, she had the balls to pretty much tell me that I didn't know the material in this class. I was absolutely floored. I didn't know what to say, so I just kinda let it roll off of my shoulders. I suppose this means I'll have to prove my worth to her all over again. Fun... ><

I'm pretty psyched about the cast party that's coming up. It'll be awesome to hang out with the cast again. They're some pretty cool people... and they actually like me, unlike other people I've acted with in school performances. It's gonna be sometime near our winter break, I think.

Now for the uber bad news... I hope you people are still reading.
Both my grandpa and my uncle Roger are going in for surgery. Grandpa has huge gallstone that needs to be removed, and I don't remember what's up with Uncle Roger.
The worse news... Mom's gonna have to go to Florida for two weeks. I'd love to go with her, but I'd be missing out on finals (as we all know, that'll mean a whole semester wasted). She might not even be home for Christmas.

The good news about that, is that we've arranged to celebrate our Christmas later on, like on New Years Eve (I'm totally serious about this). It should be pretty cool, since nobody else is celebrating then.

Please keep Grandpa Finnerty and Uncle Roger in your prayers for a successful surgery, and my Mom for safe travels.

That's about all for now. Peace out y'all!

2. Press forward for each question.
3. Use the song title as the answer to the question even if it doesn’t make sense. NO CHEATING!
4. Tag 5 people.
5. With the answers, give your own comments on how it relates to the questions.


HOW ARE YOU FEELING TODAY?
Room of Angel - Akira Yamaoka
(And here I thought things were going so well. I guess my life's a big pile of steaming angst all topped off with abandonment issues and psychosis.)

WILL YOU GET FAR IN LIFE?
Sorrow - Flyleaf
(I suppose so... but my life's gonna be nothing short of a lie I guess.)

HOW DO YOUR FRIENDS SEE YOU?
Fight! - Breath of Fire 3
(A random encounter. This means whoever runs into me in their little journey or whatever must fight me to the death.)

WILL YOU GET MARRIED?
Devils Never Cry - Devil May Cry 3
(If I do, it's sure as hell gonna be promising! Now for the problem... Dante, or Vergil...)

WHAT IS YOUR BEST FRIEND'S THEME SONG?
Red Pyramids - Akira Yamaoka
(WOAH! I didn't know my best friend was Pyramid Head. I don't know whether to jump for joy or piss myself.)

WHAT IS THE STORY OF YOUR LIFE?
The Misty Nest - Legend of Legaia
(Yup. Infiltrate this place, take out the mist reactor, save the world while chillin' with the Ra-Seru. Story of my life.)

WHAT WAS HIGH SCHOOL LIKE?
Your Voice - Legend of Legaia: Duel Saga
(It was like speaking for the first time in years... ya know... since I lost my voice 'cause of that traumatic experience where my magic powers of awesome went haywire and I accidently killed my parents.)

HOW CAN YOU GET AHEAD IN LIFE?
The Farm - Breath of Fire 3
(Dude... just chillax. Enjoy the leisure of the outside world.)

WHAT IS THE BEST THING ABOUT YOUR FRIENDS?
Pulsating Ambiance - Akira Yamaoka
(Uhhh... They can help me get out of strange worlds caused by a serial killer that thinks my room's his mom and kick his crazy bitch-ass before he kills me.)

WHAT IS IN STORE FOR THIS WEEKEND?
Healing Winds - Soul Calibur 3
(I suppose a trip to the Soul Calibur Museum of Awesome is in order... Now... who should display their awesome weapons and mad skillz?)

THE BEST THING TO DESCRIBE YOUR GRANDPARENTS?
Claw Finger - Akira Yamaoka
(Well... I know for a fact that I have a crazy grandmother... but not the kind that'll put me through unspeakable pain to revive some god or whatever.)

HOW IS YOUR LIFE GOING?
Donden - Breath of Fire 3
(Pretty bad apparently. Now that I've managed to save myself from that whack-job murderer, I have to go through a boss-fight. God dammit...)

WHAT SONG WILL THEY PLAY AT YOUR FUNERAL?
Secure Once More - Resident Evil 2
(Yup. They'll put a box and typewriter and everything in the chapel, just to make sure I don't get back up. The rules of Zombie-ing 101 state that one cannot munch on another's organs and whatnot when both are present.)

HOW DOES THE WORLD SEE YOU?
Angel's Thanatos - Akira Yamaoka
(Crazy. Badass. Hell yeah. Gotta hate it when my clients decide to up and commit suicide though...)

WILL YOU HAVE A HAPPY LIFE?
Heavy Echo - Breath of Fire 3
(Apparently not... yet again. It's dark and scary in here... not to mention there are freakin' monsters everywhere.)

WHAT DO YOUR FRIENDS REALLY THINK OF YOU?
Infiltration - Resident Evil 4
(I'm badass, pissed, on the job, and I have a shotgun. Need I say more?)

DO PEOPLE SECRETLY LUST AFTER YOU?
Day of Night - Akira Yamaoka
(I've got nothin' for this one.)

HOW CAN I MAKE MYSELF HAPPY?
Yggdrasil - Breath of Fire 3
(I dunno. Let me go ask the great tree of wisdom. Anyone got a wisdom fruit on them?)

WHAT SHOULD YOU DO WITH YOUR LIFE?
Memory of the Waters - Akira Yamaoka
(Kill some psycho bitch and her so-called "God" and mourn the loss of my adoptive dad. That's on my to-do list.)

WILL YOU EVER HAVE CHILDREN?
Night Requiem - Legend of Legaia
(Yeah... but they'll shortly be sent away to be "married" to this freak thing that'll only slowly suck the life out of her. Damn...)

WHAT SONG WOULD YOU STRIP TO?
Terror in the Depths of the Fog - Akira Yamaoka
(A random whore created by a freakish town off to go kill some pissed-off lady's guilt-ridden husband... That's me. Sexy, huh?)

IF A MAN IN A VAN OFFERED YOU CANDY, WHAT WOULD YOU DO?
Era (nostalmix) - DDR Konamix
(I'd dance like hell. Follow the arrows everyone!!)

WHAT IS YOUR DEEP DARK SECRET?
Drops of Shame - Akira Yamaoka
(I've got nothin' for this one either.)... ]]> ~Nachiah http://Nachiah.deviantart.com/journal/15720847/ http://Nachiah.deviantart.com/journal/15720847/ Thu, 29 Nov 2007 12:37:41 PST

Outside of school/rehersal-wise, things aren't as cool. It's amazing how much out of the loop I am when I'm at home. As an example, I've been trying to get ahold of one of my local friends for most of the day 'cause (last time I checked) I have to go to her dad's house sometime tomorrow to clean it. Problem is, she's not picking up and no one knows where she is. I'd just like to know if we're actually doing this thing, or if I'm just gonna end up sitting on my ass all day instead (it's nice to know these things, especially seeing as I can't legally drive yet). As I was talking to mom about things, I also realised how much I didn't know about my friends' lives right now, as I've been answering a good 90% of her questions with "I don't know." Makes me feel like I don't even have a social life.

Anyway, enough of that shit. Here's a form... again.
This time, stolen from

1. The phone rings. Who do you want it to be?
Someone who's acutally willing to associate with me.

2. When shopping at the grocery store, do you return your cart?
Always. After mom and I store away the bags in the trunk of the car, I put it in one of those caddy-things in the parking lot.

3. In a social setting, are you more of a talker or a listener?
Definately a listener. I don't talk much, and when I do A) I find they're not really listening, or B) it sounds more like I'm at an interview.

4. Do you take compliments well?.
I take whatever I can get. Compliments are always nice.

5. Do you play Sudoku?
No

6. If abandoned alone in the wilderness, would you survive?
I wouldn't survive. I don't possess those mad "wilderness-survival skills"

7. What song are you listening to right now?
Savage Garden - Break Me, Shake Me

8. Did you ever go to camp as a kid?
Nah.

9. What was your favorite game as a kid?
I was brought up on old-school mario and sonic games. Good times... good times...

12. Could you date someone with different religious beliefs than you?
Hell yeah, as long as they don't hate me for my beliefs.

13. Do you like to pursue or be pursued?
Neither. They both suck.

14. Use three words to describe yourself.
Over-emotional, Melodramatic, Foolish

15. Do any songs make you cry?
There are a few that do, but I'm not listing any specifics.

16. Are you continuing your education?
Yes

17. Do you know how to shoot a gun?
I'm not a pro, and I take forever to aim, but I'm a pretty decent shot.

18. If your house was on fire, what would be the first thing you'd grab?
My MP3 player, hands down (Sorry Angela)

19. How often do you read books?
When I have nothing better to do.

20. Do you think more about the past, present or future?
I spend too much time cutting events from my past, and pasting them into my present/future.

21. What is your favorite children's book?
Go, Dog, Go - Dr. Seuss

22. What color are your eyes?
Hazel

23. How tall are you?
5’ 1"

24. Where is your dream house located?
Anyplace where I can just be myself.

27. Have you ever taken pictures in a photo booth?
With friends once.

28. When was the last time you were at Olive Garden?
About a month ago with friends.

30. Where was the furthest place you traveled today?
To ACC and back.

32. Do you like mustard?
Yeah. I used to be addicted to ham and cheese sandwiches with mustard.

33. Do you prefer to sleep or eat?
I would have to say eating.

34. Do you look like your mom or dad?
I've been told that I'm practically a carbon-copy of my mom.

35. How long does it take you in the shower?
10 minutes for cleaning, and on a bad day, another 20 minutes for the hot water mixed with the awesome water pressure. Very therapudic.

36. Can you do the splits?
Never in my life.

37. What movie do you want to see right now?
Nothin' right now really... not in the mood.

39. What did you do for New Year's?
I hung out with my mom and watched the ball drop.

40. Do you think The Grudge was scary?
Never saw it, but I heard that it wasn't scary.

42. Do you own a camera phone?
Nope.

44. Was your mom a cheerleader?
Not even. She was wei... ]]> ~Nachiah http://Nachiah.deviantart.com/journal/14996815/ http://Nachiah.deviantart.com/journal/14996815/ Wed, 10 Oct 2007 08:06:45 PDT
It's me again, (Stacey-Julie-Lloyd as I'm called in theatre) in another one of those rare moments where I ramble on about meaningless nothings in my life instead of filling out a form of some sort.

I just spent my break between classes doing a radio interview with the college radio station (92.7 WGFR), which should be broadcast later this week (the earliest being friday), talking about the play I'm currently in (The Real Inspector Hound).

It was pretty cool to know that my voice is going on the airwaves. I'm so excited about it, and I hope it gets more people to come (Ya know... since it's free for ACC students as long as they have their student ID with them). So if you want to hear me ramble about how "there are no small parts, just small actors" and the difficulty of having more stage directions than lines in a play, tune in!!!!

Oh yeah! For those Tales of Symphonia fans out there, the person who interviewed me (and a few other members of the cast) was named Sheena!

The play itself is going real well, and the cast are awesome people to work with. I get along really well with the other actors and crew, and I honestly feel that these are people that I can call friends! It's all so much fun! Unlike when I was in theatre in high school, I actually look forward to rehersal and I do whatever it takes to make sure I don't miss any of them.

Well, I reall should be getting to my next class, so...
Later!

So much has been going on lately, so I'll just start somewhere... though it won't be in chronological order.

We'll start on the sad note. On 9/11 of 2007, my dog of 13 years, Daisy Mae, has moved on from this world. She was having alot of health problems (which is understandable, since 13 is really old for a St. Bernard) so we did the merciful thing and had her put to sleep. Thankfully, the people at the vets office were nice, and we didn't have to pay a cent for it. I'm just glad she's in a better place now.

Now onto better news!

I've recently been cast into ACC's fall play - The Real Inspector Hound. I love my character to death. Felicity (my character's name) is such a bitch. She's the perfect match for me! I'm just glad to be back into acting with a group of really fun people.

Me and the gang have regressed in the way of obsessions and stuff. Over the summer, we managed to get back into the habit of pokemon. That all started with the purchase of a copy of Diamond for Kaiera, and a copy of Pearl for me. Before you knew it, everyone in our little posse had a copy of one of those games. Ahhh nostalgia... And wouldn't you know it, we got back into the habit of buying the cards and all that jazz again.

But that's not all...
Just yesterday, me and the posse bought this big box of DBZ cards for about $10. All in the same day, we downloaded our favorite songs from the show and started reminiscing about the awesomest episodes of that show. Olsie and I played with some helium balloons that we got from church and started to do some funny shit using Goku and Vegeta. That's right... I was RPing as Goku while killing some of my brain cells with helium (and I must say, Olsie makes a good Vegeta attitude-wise). More inside jokes were made... like the key to ascending into a Super-saiyan is to shout "Rip shit in half." Don't ask me where I got that... I just did it one day. Anyway, she got a movie clip of it on her digital camera (GOD I hope she posts it somewhere).

Ahh.... Good times.... Good times....

Well... I think that's about it for now. 'Til next time...
RIP SHIT IN HALF!!!!!
...
I mean...
GET THE F*** OFF OF MY PLANET!!!
...
Wait... that's not it either...
oh yeah!
Peace!
(Goku reference in there fresh for you... for those of you who saw the japanese uncut version of some episode in the first saga of DBZ)

God, I'm such a nerd...

I can't download any...and I mean ANY versions of my usual messenger service.

So no, I didn't abandon you peoples online... I just can't get there is all. I have no way to communicate with the outside world except for deviantart (which doesn't seem to like this computer as it won't let me clear out my messages or favorite anything or even change the mood of my journal) or the phone.

I've also managed to somehow lose the installation disc for my new MP3 player. There's $60 down the crapper. What a waste.

Well... it's been a "pleasant" and wasteful day. Hope it's been better for the rest of you.

34. What's the last dream you can remember?
****Beware for fangirlism****
It's only a portion of the dream, but it's good enough for me. Besides.. the other one I remember is friggin SAD! Anyway... I found myself in a large room. It looked like a ballroom. Everything was white, and I mean EVERYTHING. There were alot of people there, and I couldn't see their faces. I look out toward the balcony, and I see a winged figure coming toward me. He lands, and I can barely see him in the moonlight, but it was enough to tell who it was.
**** last chance to stop reading people****
It was Vergil, though his appearance was a little different. The slight aura suggested that he was in devil trigger, but it certainly didn't look it as he still had many of his human-like characteristics (I'll draw this as my next serious DMC project.. then I'll get back to the comics).
**** ok. this is the last chance before it gets bad****
I call out his name and I rush out to the balcony. He turns just in time to catch me in his arms. The force of the embrace causes him to stagger a bit, but being the awesome guy that he is, he swept me off of my feet. I could go into the romance novel version of the description, but I'll just simplify it, and say that we kissed.... alot.
I'm sad that I woke up in the middle of that.

35. Who was the last person to call you?
I honestly don't remember.

36. What time did you wake up this morning?
8:30 am


37. What are you going to do this weekend?
Celebrating my birthday (and http://Nachiah.deviantart.com/journal/13769045/ Tue, 17 Jul 2007 11:16:10 PDT
...but that's not the point.

The more I step back and look at the way things are, the more I realise that this is an age of suffering. The cause: ourselves. Our peers. Our families. Our friends.

Don't get me wrong! I'm not saying that all people are bad. I love my friends and family to death. Even my sister has been much cooler nowadays. I'm just saying this in general. I guess my point is that this just isn't a very caring world as a whole.

But you all must be wondering, just where the hell did this psycho come up with all of this? Am I right? Well, sorry to disappoint, but I really don't know either.

I guess there's no point in ranting about it. Everyone knows all of this already.

What I'm not seeing much of though, is an abunadance of people who are willing to reach out and help. Nobody in today's society as a whole really seem to care anymore. But even if some people do try to help, they don't take the time to think about what exactly they're doing. I really shouldn't be the one preaching this, but if people are going to take the time to help someone in distress, they should at least have the consideration to take the time to think about what they're going to say before they say it.

Better yet. Why not listen? Why not pray? You may have an opinion on the matter, but sometimes it's best to keep those matters to yourself. After all, what's good for one person may not be best for another. And if you do decide to say something to that person, take care not to hurt them. Where you may think someone may need a "reality check" you may be destroying a dream instead... and sometimes a dream is all we have to keep us moving forward.

I guess that's my sermon for today. On to more current things.

I guess I'm stuck at home for the next couple of days 'cause Verizon has no idea when they're gonna send a technician to fix the phoneline for Mom's business. I have to waste my day, from 8am to 6pm, just waiting around for someone to get here or call or something. People make things so God damned complicated ><. I can't even take a shower 'cause I have no idea when someone'll show up at my door. Even if no one answers the door and they go away, they'll still charge mom... get this... $91 just for coming out here. (Damn corporate douchebags.) So I get to sit here just to make sure that Mom doesn't get ripped off. If all goes well, someone'll show up today and I can get back to my life. I guess I'll just have to play the waiting game and see what happens.

As you may or may not know, I'm leaving for North Carolina tomorrow morning, bright and early. I've been looking forward to this ever since Pastor Scott hired me to be the nanny for the week. I've got no worries since his kids, Adam (7 or 8) and Kayla (a.k.a Kay-Kay) (4) have been absolutely no trouble for me ever (They are such angels)!

I'll try my best to keep a journal on my adventures there, as I'll won't be back 'til next wednesday. I'll also be certain that the next jounal I post will be about my journey to and fro.

I've recieved alot of requests from friends to do another challenge for a "found poem" and so I shall do that. Right now. Here are the rules. I will do two sets of words from different books. For those who want to do a short poem, there will be 10 words on the first set. For those who want to go the extra mile, I'll do 20 words. And for those that are just plain bored, you may either do the two separate poems, or mesh all 30 words together for a poem. These words do not need to appear in any specific order, they just need to be in there. You may use the words more than once if you so choose.

I pulled out a copy of "Abnormal Psychology - An Integrative Approach" and opened to a random page. These words (Every 10 words 10 times), came from a chapter about the psychological effects of stressful life events.

-Stress
-contributions
-reflected
-wide
-presented
-which
-seeking
-for
-think
-anything

Then, I pulled out a copy of Stephen King's "Nightmares and Dreamscapes" and opened to a random page. These words (Every 10 words 20 times) came from the last page of the short story entitled, "The Moving Finger."

-between
-fingers
-owner
-gone
-shadows
-whispered
-capable
-air
-shifted
-came
-in
-toilet
-officer
-could
-shivered
-you
-nutty
-bad
-happened
-stored

I'm sure that should keep you guy occupied. I won't be writing any poems from this until I get back, as I should be getting to bed right about now. I'll miss you all, and I wish you well. I'll see all y'all in a week!

Nachiah, over and out!
