                <description><![CDATA[ So I've not been very creative in the poetry department lately... Most of my creative thinking has gone towards the game that I'm trying to make.  Perhaps I should post some fragments of story up here? I'm also working on some rudimentary art for the game, so I'll try to post that as soon at it stops looking horrible >.<<br /><br />At least one of my classes (computer ethics) is over already, so perhaps I'll have more time for creative work ^_^ That'd sure be nice...<br /><br /><div class="logos"></div><div class="rating"><img src="http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs50/o/2009/312/e/a/143011743_95142_rating.gif" /></div><div class="nassassin"><img src="http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs51/o/2009/312/8/7/143011743_95143_ninjaassassin.jpg" /></div> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I've finally started to really flesh out the idea I've had for a video game.  Now if I only had time to work on it and the skills to bring it to life.  Anyone willing to help me with art? and help fleshing out story might be good too, seeing as how this concept doesn't have a story yet.  I've just thought up core mechanics so far.  Basically just a combination of everything I ever really liked in a game, plus some additional stuff thrown in.  So, send me a note or just leave a comment here if you're interested in helping me out.  Also, if you're interested in this thing but don't have the time/skills to contribute in art, code, or design, I'd apprciate people to help me test when I finally get this project off the ground.  If ever... I've had this idea forever, let's hope I actually make something out of it.<br /><br />Anyway, what got me fired up to do this was that Mason has a club called the Game Analysis and Design Interest Group, and we're making a video game this semester xD Hopefully I can get into the coding team, as I'm not offically on board yet.  But I don't see why not.  It should be fun if I can just balance that work with my school stuff. ^___^<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So it's quite apparent that I suck with titles... but anyway<br />I've been trying to join a couple of clubs on dA recently, trying to get more criticism on my own work, and trying to see what other work is out there.  So here are the groups I'm trying to get in to... *points down to icons at bottom* haven't figured out if I'm in yet though, that'll probably take some time..<br /><br />In other news, I got a tetanus booster recently and my right arm's kinda stiff >.< so that puts a bit of a dampener on my plans to start up writing again... I have a pretty good idea for a poem that I want to write, but I'm not so sure how it's all going to come together.  I'll post it when I have it written though.  I still have some old stuff that I need to upload from that notebook I found, so I'll be posting that periodically so that I have something to contribute to dA.  I didn't want to just post it all at once though, because I've kinda dissappeared for too long and I didn't want to continue that trend. <br /><br />Speaking of notebooks, my friend ~<a class="u" href="http://stefunniii.deviantart.com/">Stefunniii</a> totally overhauled my notebook with this awesome illustration.  It's amazing and I hope it inspires me to write some good stuff.  I actually had a bit of an idea for something late last night, but I was just too dang tired to write anything.  <br /><br />Seems like I've been quite tired lately in general from like familal stuff...<br />=/<br />which would explain the *sadness* mood in the journal-thingy there.  But I'd rather not contribute to the drama of dA, as this is not a blog site.  So I'll leave that out of here.<br /><br />Wow this is a dang long journal from what I'm used to writing O_O<br />Well, before I go, just know that if you happened to wonder why your getting comments on works that you posted like... about a year ago, that's because I +watch way to many great artists and have been trying to sift through stuff, even so, I'm pretty backed up because I try to give criticism and thoughful comments to all of my fellow writers.  I try with the visual artists too, but I suppose it's just harder for me to relate and give appropriate criticism because I'm not very good with the visual stuff >.<<br /><br /><br />----------<br />Clubs/Groups:<br /><a href="http://poetryplease.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/p/o/poetryplease.gif" alt=":iconpoetryplease:" title="poetryplease"/></a><a href="http://teen-art.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/t/e/teen-art.gif?2" alt=":iconteen-art:" title="teen-art"/></a><a href="http://writersgroup.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/w/r/writersgroup.gif" alt=":iconwritersgroup:" title="writersgroup"/></a><a href="http://inked-page.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/i/n/inked-page.gif" alt=":iconinked-page:" title="inked-page"/></a><a href="http://prompt-a-day.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/p/r/prompt-a-day.jpg?1" alt=":iconprompt-a-day:" title="prompt-a-day"/></a><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Been recovering from getting my wisdom teeth removed, so I've been in a little bit of pain and I've been eating mushy food... It was ok for like the first few days and then it was like... ok. I want real food now >_< <br /><br />anyway, on the topic of artsy stuff...<br /><br />I recently found an old notebook of mine from two years ago because I was looking for something to write on while my friend took my main notebook to decorate it for me, and found some pretty good stuff.  So I might post that up soon.  Also, I've been reading a lot of poetry of dA lately, and I was inspired to write something... didn't actually get anything out yet, just like, brainstorming stuff, fragmented ideas.  But I'll try to get it up on dA as soon as I have something cohesive written.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I'm trying to work my way back into dA and get my poetic spirit back... reading over some poetry I hadn't had the time to look at before... It's always great to see the ideas that circulate among writers on dA, well, actually all the artists here, really.  So, hopefully I'll be able to write something new soon, and rekindle my relationships with people who I kinda inadvertently abandoned as my workload got... rather massive >_<;;; Still kinda hectic, and it will probably remain that way until May when the AP tests are over and done with but eh, whatever.  <br /><br />I just hope I remember to focus on the arts...<br />writing, drawing, music...<br />That's what's really important to me after all...<br />and my friends of course ^___^;<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Yay! The non-subscriber people finally got the new layout on dA!<br />^_____^<br /><br />happiness :does a little dance:<br />:utterly fails at dancing...:<br />oh well... xD<br /><br />Anyway, the new profile layout is much more streamlined and calming than the old layout... I hope someday I can make layouts like this :sigh: Not really sure what separates makes this layout so good though.  I guess it's just the little things that come together to create a product which is greater than any of the parts by themselves.  Hahaha, that was kinda cliche, but there's really no other way to say it ^_^;<br /><br />In other news... Paramore is an awsome band, I can't stop listening to their album for some reason... argh >.< hahahah<br />Yeah, that was my shameless plug for Paramore there...<br /><br />...I'm using quite a few emotes and such in this post... o_O<br /><br />but wow, I'm so happy that they finally added the friends thingy to non-subscriber pages as well.  Now I don't have to make the fake one by hand, which was getting annoying because I +watch so many people.  Unfortunately, I might have to un- +watch some of them pretty soon because my inbox overflows with new deviations every week..<br /><br />this post is getting way to random so I'm going to stop now...<br /><br /> ]]></description>

Well, almost everything.  My 3d acceleration doesn't work, so I might have to risk losing everything in order to enable it.  I was thinking that it's not too big of a deal because I can always just boot into windows to play games.  Then I remebered that I can't use Blender without 3d support ><;  I thought it was installed already, but I guess the lack of 3d explains why when I tried to use Blender the last time, it loaded with no textures ><;<br /><br />Ack<br /><br />I really wanted to get into doing som 3d stuff before I went off to college, so I could prepare myself for my major (even though I probably won't take any 3d until like Junior year... but whatever...)<br /><br />Advice please...?<br /><br /> ]]></description>

I think that's why my inbox-thingy always has like upwards of 200 new deviations.  It makes me sad to say this, but I'm probably going to have to un-watch some people because I just don't have the time to look at their art... <br /><br />and yet I am going to +watch new people... mostly friends from school and writers... sorry all you visual art people, you've got some great stuff, but... yeah... something's gotta give.   (Plus, in all seriousness, you're probably all too popular on dA to even read this XD)<br /><br />in other news..<br /><br />Anyone think I should post some of my digital art? I would probably put it under either scraps or fanart... hmm... what to do, what to do...<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Got this from uber-bubble and thought I'd re-post it...<br />oh! and I hopefully will post my new poem today after practacally falling off the face of the world (as far as DA is concerned anyway...)<br /><br /><br /><br />10 Reasons Why "Gay Marriage is Wrong"<br />1) Being gay is not natural.<br />And real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and air conditioning, tattoos, piercings and silicone breasts.<br /><br />2) Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay.<br />In the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.<br /><br />3) Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior.<br />People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract. Lamps are next.<br /><br />4) Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn't changed at all.<br />Hence why women are still property, blacks still can't marry whites, and divorce is still illegal.<br /><br />5) Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed.<br />And we can't let the sanctity of Britney Spears' 55-hour just-for-fun marriage be destroyed.<br /><br />6) Straight marriages are valid because they produce children.<br />So therefore, gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn't be allowed to marry because our population isn't out of control, our orphanages aren't full yet, and the world needs more children.<br /><br />7) Obviously gay parents will raise gay children.<br />Since, of course, straight parents only raise straight childâren.<br /><br />8) Gay marriage is not supported by religion.<br />In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That's why we have only one religion in America.<br />(Did I miss the lesson where Jesus says He hates gays?)<br /><br />9) Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home.<br />Which is exactly why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children.<br /><br />10) Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms.<br />Just like we haven't adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans.<br /><br />Re-post this if you believe love makes a marriage.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So I finally got around to typing up one of my newer poems, although looking at it again I'm not quite sure that its as good as I thought it was when I wrote it... still not sure if I'm going to submit that one to Calliope or not.  I have another one from the 100 Themes challenge that I'm working on that I really like, but the conclusion is still shakey.  Hopefully I will be able to finish that one either tonight or tomorrow and have it up here before the weekend is over so I can perhaps get some feedback and then submit that one to Calliope instead.<br /><br />On another note...<br /><br />The thing I used to have at the bottom of these posts with all the names is starting to annoy me, so I'm going to be more selective and start only posting the icons of my friends and one or two featured deviatants from among the ones I've +watched per category per post.  Kinda odd explanation, but it should be easier to see than explain.<br /><br /><br /><br />//The part below is from Oct 6, 2008<br />Totally keep forgetting to post stuff... but I do have a new poem, so I'll post that ASAP, most likely right after I finish working on my English project that's due on Wed.  Just wanted to write a quick journal before I go to bed 'cause it feels like I haven't done anything on DA in like... forever ><<br /><br />Will edit later...<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So I just uploaded the current layout of my website to DA, as I don't think I'll ever finish that design.  The reason being that I made a new layout that I like much better.  When I have that layout finished and coded I'll post it up with a link to an active preview of the site.  I like this new layout sooo much better than my last one ^_^ <br /><br />I think I finally made a good balance between showcasing text and graphics.  Learning some JavaScript really helped me, as now I know what JS is capable of.  This new layout is definately the product of that learning, as I based it on a lot of JS.  But if for some reason the person viewing my site has JS turned off, it will still work, just not quite as well.  <br /><br />For example, the mouseover previews that show more info on my portfolio won't work, and neither wil my music player, but those are just graphical add-ons and not the core structure of the page.  It should also make good use of widescreen monitors.  If only I had money to buy good web hosting, then I could use it like a real blog.  I probably wouldn't make it into a wordpress or drupal layout, but that is a possibility...<br /><br />we shall see what the future holds for me...<br /><br />>>>COMMISSIONS<br />I am willing to take commissions for web design! Send me a comment or a note and we can discuss it.  It might take me a while to finish the commissions though, as school is starting back up again... but they would get done ^_^; Also, pricing would depend on the complexity of the job.<br /><br /><br /><br />~~~Fellow Deviants~~~<br />~<a class="u" href="http://adiar.deviantart.com/">adiar</a>~<a class="u" href="http://almightyshadow.deviantart.com/">AlmightyShadow</a>*<a class="u" href="http://amuria.deviantart.com/">Amuria</a>~<a class="u" href="http://binjoo.deviantart.com/">binjoo</a>~<a class="u" href="http://blacklustersolidier.deviantart.com/">BlackLusterSolidier</a><br />*<a class="u" href="http://blackmage9.deviantart.com/">blackmage9</a>=<a class="u" href="http://bloodcross.deviantart.com/">BloodCross</a>*<a class="u" href="http://buuzen.deviantart.com/">buuzen</a>~<a class="u" href="http://cact.deviantart.com/">cact</a>~<a class="u" href="http://caithness-shop.deviantart.com/">caithness-shop</a><br />`<a class="u" href="http://crisvector.deviantart.com/">CrisVector</a>=<a class="u" href="http://edwardto.deviantart.com/">edwardto</a>*<a class="u" href="http://effy-chan.deviantart.com/">Effy-chan</a>+<a class="u" href="http://ekud.deviantart.com/">ekud</a>~<a class="u" href="http://elfenceres.deviantart.com/">ElfenCeres</a><br />~<a class="u" href="http://estylissimo.deviantart.com/">Estylissimo</a>~<a class="u" href="http://fedrick.deviantart.com/">Fedrick</a>*<a class="u" href="http://frzdragon.deviantart.com/">frzdragon</a>~<a class="u" href="http://fuuma.deviantart.com/">fuuma</a>*<a class="u" href="http://gosiekd.deviantart.com/">gosiekd</a>				<br />~<a class="u" href="http://iamstarshine.deviantart.com/">iamstarshine</a>~<a class="u" href="http://kagekaji.deviantart.com/">KageKaji</a>~<a class="u" href="http://kimantha333.deviantart.com/">Kimantha333</a>~<a class="u" href="http://kimography.deviantart.com/">Kimography</a>~<a class="u" href="http://kiyo.deviantart.com/">kiyo</a>				<br />~<a class="u" href="http://kurobeni.deviantart.com/">Kurobeni</a>*<a class="u" href="http://kyoko-taide.deviantart.com/">Kyoko-Taide</a>`<a class="u" href="http://lilyas.deviantart.com/">Lilyas</a>*<a class="u" href="http://littlemewhatever.deviantart.com/">littlemewhatever</a>*<a class="u" href="http://luminatii.deviantart.com/">luminatii</a><br />~<a class="u" href="http://mercier.deviantart.com/">mercier</a>*<a class="u" href="http://messa.deviantart.com/">messa</a>~<a class="u" href="http://mr-shutter.deviantart.com/">Mr-Shutter</a>~<a class="u" href="http://myckodavid.deviantart.com/">myckoDAVID</a>~<a class="u" href="http://mystic-hysteria.deviantart.com/">Mystic-Hysteria</a><br />~<a class="u" href="http://nagietek.deviantart.com/">Nagietek</a>=<a class="u" href="http://neolucky.deviantart.com/">Neolucky</a>~<a class="u" href="http://neschas.deviantart.com/">neschas</a>~<a class="u" href="http://otakuzen.deviantart.com/">otakuzen</a>~<a class="u" href="http://phantasmastriker.deviantart.com/">PhantasmaStriker</a>~<a class="u" href="http://purpleirises.deviantart.com/">PurpleIrises</a>		<br />*<a class="u" href="http://rebechan.deviantart.com/">Rebechan</a>*<a class="u" href="http://rei-i.deviantart.com/">rei-i</a>~<a class="u" href="http://relic-57.deviantart.com/">Relic-57</a>~<a class="u" href="http://rickjames5465.deviantart.com/">RickJames5465</a>*<a class="u" href="http://riokshte.deviantart.com/">Riokshte</a>			<br />=<a class="u" href="http://sakimichan.deviantart.com/">sakimichan</a>~<a class="u" href="http://screamingmind.deviantart.com/">ScreamingMind</a>*<a class="u" href="http://sexyblue.deviantart.com/">sexyblue</a>*<a class="u" href="http://shel-yang.deviantart.com/">she... ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Redoing my links because there were just too many pics before...<br />Now I'm only giving the masters pics... and my friends because they're... well, my friends XD gonna have to upgrade some people to master soon though... and others might get dropped.  Who knows?<br /><br />So more on the DA topic now... don't have much time lately to write, sadly.  I blame summer school... but that's what I get for wanting to get ahead.  I'm just kidding really, I don't mind it that much.  But it probably is the reason I don't have a lot a time... and my massive procrastination ^.^; I would have a new web layout posted as a deviation, but I didn't do as much planning as the other ones, so I don't have a real layout in picture form like I did for the previous layouts.  Thus, I'm just going to take a screenshot of my layout after I'm done coding.<br /><br />I really wanna skip around when doing the 100 Themes, but I think that would make it too easy, I should just go in order >< suggestions please?<br />(I'll probably just stay in order reguardless... but I'd like to see other people's opinions)<br /><br />Dang, this is probably the longest journal I've ever written... o.O<br /><br />!!!!!NOTICE!!!!!<br />I've placed a kiriban at 2000 pageviews, so if anyone catches it, please tell me.  Unfortunately, there's probably not going to be a prize, but if you really wanted to, I guess I could make you a web layout/site...

                <description><![CDATA[ Finally posting some of my new works up... I'm gonna post my new web layout right after I'm done writing this ^_^ .  I was actually waiting for my website to be coded so that I could have a live preview of the layout, but I'll just edit the deviation description later.  It's almost done at the time I am writing this, so hop over to my site and check it out if you have the time.  Don't be afraid to leave a message in my chat box.  I'm so happy I was able to make one by myself.  Planning on making a new one but I don't really know flash.  If anyone reads this and knows flash, please leave me a note, comment, or post in my chatbox on my webpage, for I would like to ask you for some help.  <br /><br />On an more DA related note, hopefully my new poems will pull in more people than the old ones.  Not posting them for the popularity though.  It would just be nice if, even though I'm a writer, I could get my works out there through DA.  Still, I myself don't really go through the literature on DA, so I understand.  It's a complicated sort of feeling... ah well<br /><br />I've also greatly expanded the icon thing at the botton here to include all the new people I've +watched recently.  There's some awsome stuff here on DeviantArt, that's for sure.

                <description><![CDATA[ I'm so happy for the responce I got from Burning Burgundy... Honestly it's not even the finished product; it was supposed to have been a draft.  Still, I'll probably not going to work in it for a while because I'm working on some other stuff right now.<br />
<br />
Speaking of which, if anyone would like to help me with my website it would be greatly appreciated.  I have no idea what I'm gonna do for a header image, so any advice would be appreciated.  Also, if anyone wants to create some kind of image for me, that would be awsome.  Great thanks will be given, and all will be merry.  <br />
<br />
For dimentions, preferably something between 500 and 800 pixels in width, designed in such a way that if the image was taken and the right side stretched out, it would still look good.  Height wise, anywhere from 200 to 500 pixels.  If anyone has an intrest in helping me out, I'll provide more in depth details.  Feel free to ask questions, if any.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Yes I do realize that DA is an art community and that literature kinda goes under art... but that's not what I meant.  I'm going to embark into CG very soon, starting with a fan art peice I've been working on for a while now.  Get ready to critique that one.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ ARGH!!!<br />
<br />
I got tagged to do "6" again... and technically by the same person... I think<br />
yeah, cause I'm pretty sure that Alex tagged me the first time, then Renee got the thing from Alex and tagged me... garg... I might not do it at all but I think then Renee would be sad/mad, but like not to seriously.  So I'll have to think about that one.<br />
<br />
In other more DA related news...<br />
<br />
I'm coming out with some new stuff soon, including a poem that I wrote today in English and a vexel (which I haven't started yet...) of my face transitioned into anime/manga style for use as my DeviantID picture.  For the most part it seems as if I may have found a glimmer of inspiration again, so we shall see what the future holds.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Yeah so I'm finally writing another journal thingy.  I would write more often but I figured that my more personal/non-artsy-stuff related junk should be posted on my blog and not here.  So now that I've gotten past that... the point.<br />
<br />
I've never really been sure of what category to place my works under.  If you have a suggestion about where a work should be moved to, please leave a comment or something.  Also, I'm not really opening up to comissions or anything, althouth I don't really know if writers do that as much as artists, but if you have anything which might serve as inspiration, feel free to tell me.  I'd really appreciate it.  Thanks.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Those are six sevens btw... aka 7x six<br />
so here it is.. the SIX journal thing which i've been putting of for MONTHS now... heh, I finally got around to doing it, so I'll try my best ^_^<br />
<br />
Well... i'm not gonna go into gross amounts of detail, but I'll try to say enough<br />
<br />
1) I Have My Philisophical Moments...<br />
<br />
Don't we all...? Still, it feels like it happens quite often for me. My ponderings on the state of the human mind and society in general inspire my poetic works, but I feel that it's still more complex than that. What separates one person from the next, and where does the line between good and evil really exist? Or can it never truely be drawn at all?<br />
<br />
2) Destiny is not Set in Stone (kinda cheating cause it's more on my philosophies of life... but whatever)<br />
<br />
As much as God plays a role in our lives, giving us gifts which we would be lost without, such as the power to play music, write poetry, paint, draw, or any other form of artistic expression, we still have to try and make our lives work. I know the consequences of not trying hard enough far to well. <br />
<br />
3) I Really like Kids ^_^<br />
<br />
self explanatory, 'cept I usually don't show that side of me because I'm too conscious of about how other people will react.<br />
<br />
4) Sometimes I think I push myself more than my parents do... Which is kinda sad considering I'm Asian ^O^<br />
<br />
5) I Don't Like Candy/Sugary-stuff Very Much<br />
<br />
I suppose that's kinda strange to some people, but that's me...<br />
It alters my personality if I intake even what most people would consider a little, so it works out for me.<br />
<br />
6) I Like Slots Better than Card Games<br />
<br />
Yeah well... I don't have any better ideas... Do you?<br />
Besides, if you play the slot machines which require you to stop the reels manually (those are really the only good kind anyway), then it takes a lot of skill. This is mainly because your eyes have to be able to see images that are whizzing by very rapidly and make some sort of distinction between them if you want to get a good payout. Otherwise, if you just stop the reels at random, it's basically high-stakes button-mashing...<br /><br /> ]]></description>
