                <description><![CDATA[ <sub>I got into college. (: One of my two top choices, actually. It's a pretty good school in my state, too. So... yay! Usually they notify people in April, but they sent me my letter in the mail less than a month after I applied. Pretty crazy and totally unexpected. I don't know if that really means anything, but I feel good about it. Lol. It feels like a huge weight of stress has been lifted off my shoulders. I'm ready to take on the future now... First I have to graduate high school though. Hahaha. Lame.<br /><br /></sub> ]]></description>

Orbiting thoughts, rarely picking some out of the astroid belts of sheer epiphany and watching others pass by like really fast meteors in an infinite space void of light in certain places.

                <description><![CDATA[ <sub><b>Your favorite song?</b><br />
.__.; That's the hardest question ever, no joke. I don't know... @_@; Ummm... I guess... It's so hard to choose. >_<; Right now, in this very moment, I would have to say <i>"Let It Enfold You" by Senses Fail.</i> It's just... so real. <br />
<br />
<b>A quote from a song that you relate to the most?</b><br />
<i>"IÂm not saying that IÂm giving up. IÂm just trying not to think as much as I used to; 'Cause 'never' is a lonely little messed up word. Maybe IÂll get it right some day"</i> and also... <i>"I feel helpless for the most part. But, IÂm learning to open my eyes. And the sad truth of the matter is IÂll never get over it. But, IÂm gonna try to get better and overcome each moment in my own way. I so want to get back on track. And IÂll do whatever it takes even if it kills me."</i> -Even If It Kills Me, Motion City Soundtrack<br />
<br />
<b>List songs or artists that help you get through your ups and downs and tell me when is it that you play them the most?</b><br />
I play Senses Fail a lot... It's like the multipurpose band. I play them when I'm happy, mad, angry, or excited.<br />
I listen to Death Cab For Cutie when I'm feeling depressed.<br />
Sherwood is my happy band. :3<br />
The Juliana Theory is for nostalgia and remembering past times.<br />
Mindless Self Indulgence is for my super extreme moods (good or bad).<br />
... Yeah. XD<br />
<br />
<b>Have you ever cried while listening to a song? If so, which one and why?</b><br />
There's only one song that is guaranteed to make me cry.<br />
<i>"What Sarah Said" by Death Cab For Cutie.</i> I can't not cry. It's impossible.<br />
<br />
<b>Is there a song you refuse to play when you're alone? Why?</b><br />
No.<br />
<br />
<b>Has music Influenced your life? How?</b><br />
I treat music like a gift. It's... so important to me. I didn't start listening to music until a year ago and it's changed my life. I don't know how I'd function without it really. I could go on... :3</sub><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ <sub>I'm... really sad right now. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /><br />
<br />
"<i>Hawthorne Heights guitarist Casey Calvert, 26, was pronounced dead on Saturday after police were called to the band's tour bus outside Washington, D.C.'s 9:30 Club around 2:30 p.m. and found him unconscious. The Washington Post reported that Calvert's death came one day after he and his bandmates Â frontman JT Woodruff, guitarist Micah Carli, bassist Matt Ridenour and drummer Eron Bucciarelli Â boarded the bus to begin their Wintour 2007 outing, which kicked off Friday night in Detroit. Police are still awaiting results of an autopsy, though some reports speculate that his death might have been caused by a pre-existing condition related to acute asthma."</i><br />
<br />
It hits you kinda hard, ya know? I didn't know the guy, but before I loved the lyrics and vocals of Hawthorne Heights, I was in love with the guitar parts. I'm a guitarist... So, I always pick that kinda stuff out first. It was exceptional. Eventually I fell in love with the band as a whole...<br />
<br />
RIP Casey. <33 I've always appreciated your guitarist contribution to Hawthorne Heights and I always will.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ <sub>OKAY, WTF? I can't even view one of my most popular deviations anymore JUST BECAUSE I put the mature content filter on it. What a load of rubbish! Some of the best deviations out there have mature content filters on them, and now I can't even view them! And sometimes people put them as just a precaution! Half the stuff I see that had mature content filters on it doesn't even have anything bad about them! <br />

                <description><![CDATA[ <sub>Once upon a time there was this cool kid named <a href="http://avesetsuna.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/a/v/avesetsuna.png" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconavesetsuna:" title="avesetsuna"/></a> and she tagged a certain Topaz. The Topaz bled, and then she continued on to write the entry you see right now. :3<br />
<br />
TAG! You're it :3<br />
<b>1.</b> Post these rules<br />
<b>2.</b> Each person tagged must post 8 random (hopefully interesting) facts about themselves.<br />
<b>3.</b> Tags should write a journal of these facts.<br />
<b>4.</b> At the end of the post 8 more bloggers are tagged and named.<br />
<b>5.</b> Go to their page and leave a comment telling them they're tagged.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>1.</b> I try to find one song a day that expresses how I feel, no matter what genre it is (although it's usually rock) and I refuse to have the same song twice in a row. I guess it's my way of forcing myself to have a different mood every day (preferably happy). XP Today's song is <b>Even If It Kills Me by Motion City Soundtrack.</b><br />
<br />
<b>2.</b> I always have to have some body part of mine crossed when I'm sitting down or resting. Whether it's my legs, arms, fingers, or toes, SOMETHING has to be crossed. I don't know why.<br />
<br />
<b>3.</b> I can twist almost any topic and turn it into a talk that people can open themselves up in.<br />
<br />
<b>4.</b> Math class is my daily thinking time. Usually I come up with some really deep thoughts that I wish I could write down at the time. Usually I'm staring out of the window or zoning out on the board rather than paying attention... (Even if I wanted to pay attention, I wouldn't learn anything anyway. That's what after school tutoring is for. XD)<br />
<br />
<b>5.</b> When I was little, I was born completely silent. I didn't cry until around 4pm the next day (I was born at 12 in the morning). That kinda reflects my quiet personality and how I've literally had it since birth. XP <br />
<br />
<b>6.</b> I'm not a leader. I'd much rather follow. And putting me in leadership positions makes me extremely uncomfortable. I took a leadership class my freshman year... I wasn't the greatest. .__.<br />
<br />
<b>7.</b> I can't draw for shit anymore. D: <br />
<br />
<b>8.</b> I read 12 books over the summer (The entire Harry Potter series and a couple more) and I plan on reading at least one book every two months for the school year, then reading 3 books over the summer (at least). I really enjoy reading. I really get involved in a book to the point where I'm not aware of anything that's going on around me (ANYTHING). Especially when I have earphones in. Eventually the music kinda fades out and I'm left in this world of coolness... 'cause most of the book I read are cool. : D<br />
<br />
That's all you're getting from me.<br />
<br />
Tagging people? Ummm... I'll think of that later.<br />
<br />
PEACE.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ <sub>"I've fallen victim to my greatest fear. The calendar marks that I lost a whole year. Three-sixty-five, I'm barely alive. Grace took her good natured time to arrive. Oh my god, this year has dealt me a horrible hand. I'll try and explain, but you won't understand. Well wait, what's today's date? There's plenty of time left to procrastinate, or plan my escape.<br />
<br />
Let me go.<br />
Let me go.<br />
<br />
The autumn leaves join in a bittersweet chorus. A hymn so inspired as if to inform us they're leaving soon. And She sends a kiss that we just barely miss, before winter sets in and exposes our sins.<br />
<br />
Let me go.<br />
Let me go.<br />
<br />
I want to be where nobody knows me. I'll be behind the perfect disguise. I'll drive away, I'll dissapear. I want to be anywhere, but here.<br />
<br />
Spring-time, ever changing. My life's re-arranging.<br />
So it seems I'm going down now. Tears fall on the ash, my heart's fading fast.<br />
<br />
Let me go.<br />
Let me go.<br />
<br />
While I wait for the new year to introduce new fears; while I'm wishing that I could be anywhere, but here."</sub><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ There was a shooting at Virginia Tech University this morning/afternoon.<br />
<br />
I can't believe no one on my watch list has posted <b>A THING</b> about it.<br />
<br />
32 people died. The gun man killed himself.<br />
<br />
<b>32 PEOPLE.</b><br />
<br />
32 innocent college students and a professor died today...and over 31 were injured.<br />
<br />
And I can't believe no one has said anything.<br />
<br />
This is the biggest mass shooting incident in American history. Columbine was 12 people. This is much, much bigger.<br />
<br />
My condolences go out to anyone who had loved ones who were injured or killed in this terrible incident.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ <b>.: JOURNAL :.</b><br /><br />1. What will your boy/girlfriend say when you ask them to marry you?<br />
"I knew this kid named Max<br />
He used to get fat stacks out on the corner with drugs<br />
He liked to hang out late at night<br />
Liked to get shit faced<br />
And keep pace with thugs<br />
Until late one night there was a big gun fight<br />
Max lost his head<br />
He pulled out his chrome .45<br />
Talked some shit<br />
And wound up dead<br />
Now his wife and his kids are caught in the midst of all of his pain<br />
You know it crumbles that way<br />
At least that's what they say when you play the game<br />
God forbid you ever had to wake up to hear the news<br />
'Cause then you really might know what it's like to have to lose" <b>-What It's Like, Everlast</b><br />
<br />
Oh, that's nice...Thanks future boyfriend. D:<br />
<br />
2. What will your child's first words be?<br />
"I am against myself again<br />
Trying to fit these pieces in<br />
Walking on a cloud of dust to<br />
Get to you" <b>-Unknown, Lifehouse</b><br />
<br />
Not only does that imply that my house will be filthy, but that I won't be around when my baby needs me. D:<br />
<br />
This is depressing thus far.<br />
<br />
3. How will your presidential inauguration speech start?<br />
"Out of sight, Out of mind<br />
Out of time, To decide<br />
Do we run?, Should I hide?<br />
For the rest, Of My life?" <b>-30 minutes, Tatu</b><br />
<br />
Um...not reassuring. ._.<br />
<br />
4. What will your dying words be?<br />
"So in the meantime,<br />
You'll be resting on my mind.<br />
For the last time,<br />
I will leave myself behind." <b>-Almost Honest, Josh Kelly</b><br />
<br />
...;_;<br />
<br />
5. What will the motto of the company you work for be?<br />
"Desperate for changing<br />
Starving for truth<br />
I'm closer to where I started<br />
Chasing after you." <b>-Hanging By A Moment, Lifehouse</b><br />
<br />
o_O Sexual Harassment in the workplace much?<br />
<br />
6. What will the mayor say when he hands you the key to the city?<br />
"Memories are just where you laid them<br />
Drag the waters till the depths give up their dead<br />
What did you expect to find<br />
Was there something you left behind<br />
Don't you remember anything i said when i said" <b>-Hemorrhage (in my hands), Fuel</b><br />
<br />
Ahahaha. The title of the song is funny. I like this song. <3.<br />
<br />
7. What will the note left by the terrorists who kidnap your cousin say?<br />
"so much for holding on<br />
I'm the weak and you're the strong<br />
I'm broken<br />
in a box it's hard to see<br />
things have changed, but it wasn't me<br />
I'm still here<br />
do you think about or miss the little things<br />
a simple kiss goodnight<br />
all the things I know I lack<br />
if I wait right here will you come back to me<br />
."<b> -Heavenly, Skylar Blue</b><br />
<br />
Hmmm.<br />
<br />
8. What will your five-year-old write all over the walls with Crayola marker?<br />
"But under skinned knees and the skid marks<br />
Past the places where you used to learn<br />
You howl and listen<br />
Listen and wait for the<br />
Echoes of angels who won't return" <b>-Everything You Want, Vertical Horizon</b><br />
<br />
My child is depressed! o_o<br />
<br />
9. What will you tell your husband/wife just before they send you to the electric chair?<br />
"Forget the feeling;<br />
Get all your of reasons.<br />
Life is love or the lack there of." <b>-Love is Everything, The Juliana Theory</b><br />
<br />
...<3. I love that. Juliana Theory is the best band ever, by the way.<br />
<br />
10. What will they write on your gravestone?<br />
"Sleep, don't weep, my sweet love<br />
My face it's all wet 'cause my day was rough<br />
So do what you must do to find yourself<br />
Wear another shoe, paint my shelves<br />
Those times that I was broke, and you stood strong<br />
I hope I find a place where I feel I belong." <b>-Sleep Don't Weep, Damien Rice</b><br />
<br />
...I love that, so much. I wanna cry almost. ;_;<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ <b>.: JOURNAL :.</b><br /><br />Cool, 60th entry. That's pretty sweet.<br />
<br />
Anyway, I'm a super huge fan of Donnie Darko. If you haven't seen it, then you need to. Go rent it or something. It's amazing. Rated R for drug use (some guy smokes a crack pipe for like...5 seconds. Yeah, drug use all right...), violence, and language. It's a good movie.<br />
<br />
Umm...I'm working on a pic, and strangely it's for english class. I really want to get first place in this little Ad competition thing so I can get some extra credit...even second place would be good for me. But alas, Kelly pwns me in the art department.<br />
<br />
Yeah, Kelly, that's right. YOU'RE TOO GOOD FOR THIS WORLD.<br />
<br />
Hmm...I do believe that's it.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ <b>.: JOURNAL :.</b><br /><br />I guess after farting around for a week I finally did some things worth some value. *points to chibi april and AZ*<br />
<br />
Hmm...Ya, I don't post here nearly as much as I used to. Hehe. <br />
<br />
Life's good, things are good. Everything's good. <br />
<br />
I'm gonna start another flower soon...but I need a reference. Any pictures anyone? I'd love to get a flowerbed of some sort. That'd be a real challenge. 8D<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ <b>.: JOURNAL :.</b><br /><br />Eww...Valentine's Day is coming up. <br />
<br />
I don't like Valentine's Day. It's a depressing day for me. I usually feel extremely alone...but, then again, I haven't had many friends before this year. This year it will be better. But, I can't help but want a cuddle buddy. <br />
<br />
The Juliana Theory is an excellent band. Look them up. They're absolutely amazing.<br />
<br />
White Days and Into the Dark are awesome songs by them. My favorites. Listening to White Days gives my urges to sing.<br />
<br />
Okay, enough from me.<br /><br />~Topaz ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ <b>.: JOURNAL :.</b><br /><br />I had a couple of fun experiences this superbowl. First, there was the food...the wonderful...wonderful food. <3. <3. <3. Then there was the commercials. The commercials were good for the beggining, then they kinda died off. =/ But...the Doritos commercial in the beginning was hilarious. XD I...died laughing. That, and the FedEx one where there's the office in space. The guy got hit with a meteor! That's just like how the caveman was squished by the dinosaur last year! I almost died laughing at that, too. XD Then there was the fact that I have an Australian friend who didn't really understand the severity of the super bowl...and I thought that was really funny/cute. <3. Then she splurted out some Australian tradition that I didn't have a clue about, and I got a kick out of that, too. XD <br />
<br />
Yep, this year was fun. <3. I honestly didn't have a preference toward who won...I rooted for the Bears since my dad was rooting for the Colts for some friendly competition. But, I'm glad the Colts one. Their coach needed a serious break. His son commited suicide, he was cheated out of a superbowl before, and he's a hard worker. He definitely deserved it. <br />
<br />
Okay, that is all. <3.<br /><br />~Topaz ]]></description>

<b>.: JOURNAL :.</b><br /><br />My Grandma just died about an two hours ago. I already had my emotional breakdown, so I'm okay. I'm in that shocked kind of mood, but I'm still okay. Grandma wouldn't want me to mope around. She'd want me to handle it as best I can. : D<br />
<br />
So, no art from me for a while. If I do submit art, it will probably be nice and sad, and perhaps emo. =/ <br />
<br />
So, just thought I'd let you all know.<br />
<br />
Oh, and the Kirby Christmas gift is cancelled. I can't possibly do it now.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Yeah, so I lost my subby. I'm not going to attempt to adapt to dA since my mom's buying me another one soon.<br />
<br />
I've been tagged. Dangit. D:<br />
<br />
Rules:<br />
The first player of this "game" starts with the topic "Six Weird Habits/Things About Yourself" and people who get tagged need to write a journal about their six Weird Habits/Things as well as state this rule clearly. In the end, you need to choose the next six people to be tagged and list their names. Don't forget to leave a comment that says "You are tagged" in their devPage comments and tell them to read yours...<br />
<br />
1. When I'm talking to someone and we're both walking, I tend to walk in unison with them without realizing it<br />
<br />
2. I scratch my head when I talk.<br />
<br />
3. I talk on the phone with friends maybe once a week. I usually IM them because I'm socially retarded over the phone.<br />
<br />
4. When I walk, my foot moves inward then twitches right back out again before it reaches the ground. Sometimes it doesn't twitch back soon enough resulting in multiple twists of the ankle a day.<br />
<br />
5. I'm all over the map when it comes to the music I listen to.<br />
<br />
6. I have tendencies to squeal for no apparent reason. <br />
<br />
I have no one to tag at the moment. Check back later.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

<br />
Mwah! This is Topaz's journal. This is the place where she writes anything and everything pertaining to her art life (and maybe her social life if you're lucky). Have fun reading!<br />
<br />
<b>.: JOURNAL :.</b><br /><br />Ive been pondering on this lately...Am I meant to be a copy artist? It seems like I come up with crap when I try CGing my own work, but when I do someone else's it comes out beautifully. For example.<br />
<br />
<span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow"><a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/44510044/"><img src="http://tn1-3.deviantart.com/fs7/150/f/2006/344/7/c/Zoe_by_TopazKitty.png" width="74" height="150" /></a></span></span><br />
<br />
That's probably one of my best works to date. And it's someone else's character and character sketch. She drew it, I just did all the CGing. Here's another one.<br />
<br />
<span class="shadow-holder"><span class="shadow"><a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/40490574/"><img src="http://tn1-1.deviantart.com/fs12/150/i/2006/270/d/1/ShikaIno_Birthday_by_TopazKitty.png" width="82" height="150" /></a></span></span><br />
<br />
This one has the most favorites, and AZ-kun drew it. I just did the CGing. Do you all get where I'm going with this?<br />
<br />
I think I should embrace being a copy artist...I just haven't foind exactly what I'm good at drawing yet. I'm starting to think it might be Kirby, but then again I haven't attempted to CG any Kirby sketches of mine yet. <br />
<br />
-shrug- I'm not entirely sure what I'm doing yet...I'll think of something. But, in the meantime, I'm going to enjoy CGing other people's sketches (while drawing on my own of course) and hope that something somewhere comes along. :3<br /><br />~Topaz<br />
<br />
I want DDR for Christmas. Believe it. -shot- ]]></description>

<br />
<b>.: JOURNAL :.</b><br /><br />...I can't get away from it. D= I broke up with my boyfriend, thinking that everything would be better after I broke up with him. I thought he would leave me alone and stop being so clingy, and I thought I was actually going to get some space. But, he hasn't stopped. He isn't stopping...I can't do anything about it that won't hurt his feelings...my friends tell me that it's the clingy types that usually take bad news/experiences harder than most...like attempted suicide and stuff. I'm afraid to hurt his feelings because I have no idea how he'll take it.<br />
<br />
Recently a teacher at my school passed away. I didn't know who she was, but a lot of people were depressed about it. She died from cancer. Now, a student at our school died. Rumor has it that he ODed. I think it was an accident. He was a happy kid, got good grades...not the type to commit suicide. His girlfriend took it really hard, apparently. She's in bad shape...<br />
<br />
...I'm really afraid of all this death around me. I keep a happy face, but I've experienced stuff like this before. People usually die in threes. This is two so far. I have this really strange feeling that the next person is going to be someone I know/care about since the other two weren't. I'm really scared right now...This could be my PMS talking, 'cause I get overly cautious/snappy/EMO when I PMS, but I'm not sure...<br />
<br />
...Sigh.<br /><br />~Topaz ]]></description>

<br />
<b>.: JOURNAL :.</b><br /><br />This is a really weird dream/nightmare I was thinking about today.<br />
<br />
So, I was in some type of park, and there was one of those mobile homes there. Everyone was watching fireworks or something. It was a pretty giant crowd. Then, this one guy gets on top of the mobile home and says, "I'm going to end this!" and steps on the edge. Now, this mobile home was freakin' huge, so if you jumped off of it, you were garunteed to die. So, he steps to the edge and everyone is freaking out. I was just kinda standing there and staring at him. All of his friends started to climb up the mobile home, and he was all, "Don't come any closer or I WILL JUMP." and his friends were all, "Don't do it!" and kept climbing. Dumbarses. Anyway, he jumped. People screamed and all of he friends ran to the edge where he fell. They looked over the edge, and there was no body. There was no sign that he had even jumped. I looked over there and said, "WTF?" and some lady screamed. Then, the guy's friends looked around for the body. They crossed the river and found it in some bushes. Now, all of these men were part of a cult that believed if one of your friends was killed, then you had every right to kill the people around at the time. So, they were all like, "YOU KILLED OUR COMRADE! YOU ALL MUST DIE!" Then they pulled out some machine guns and started shooting everyone. I ran like hell to the other side of the river (away from them) and away from all the dead people. As I was running in this crowd, all the people around me were getting shot, and they fell as they got shot. So, I'm running faster and faster and the people around me keep falling and falling. All of their blood kept splattering on my face and clothes. By the time the group was almost miniscule, I was shot in the leg. I rolled down a hill and hit a tree. Then one of the guy came over to me. I played dead, then he said, "Answer me you dumb whore!" and shot me in the arm. I cried out in pain as he pulled me up by the collar and put his gun to my head. I pleaded with him to let me live, and he said, "Why should I let you live when my friend died?" Then I said, "I have my whole life ahead of me..." at this point, I was almost wailing and sobbing. Then he threw me on the ground and pointed his gun at me. Then he gave me this evil smile. Then he had a suprised look on his face after there had been a large bang. Some blood splattered on my face. He fell over and the gun shot off into the ground. I saw the police standing where he had. That black guy from "Criminal Minds" picked me up and said, "You're going to be okay." and I just stared at him. As he was walking me to an ambulance, and tried to say thank you, but I had no voice. I had gone mute.<br />
<br />
Then I woke up. XD<br /><br />~Topaz<br />
