My theory is, just incase the president's speech is rousing, and convinces even some of the poor saps that watch only Fox for all their news-info needs (ironically, considering the republican states, a lot of them could benefit from a public health care option... don't they get that?), that'd be bad for the republicans.

Sarah Palin talking about death panels and peoples' worthiness of receiving healthcare based on their productivity in society (ldjflskdjd) though, that's cool.

I'm not really down with the latest, but I'd really like to know what any of you ladies (or gents) out there might recommend while I attempt to do some research from some comparatively "blahblah" sites.

Factors: I don't have a bajillion dollars, and I hate periods, so anything also addressing these conveniently would be super swell.

Thanks for being great sports if anyone replies 8)

Well, I don't feel any more productive.... I will say, my desire to play games has waned considerably, as if they just don't have their same appeal anymore.

@_@ However... now that I'm moving back with my parents, I'm going to start Warcraft back up since that's the only way I can interact with my boyfriend during a long distance relationship. T_T gaming with a purpose...

blaaaah, well, I don't even know why I'm sharing this, but it -is- a journal. I guess it's like an official way for me to break my anti-video game embargo. *kicks down a wall* It's not making a difference, bring on the gamiiiiiiiing @_@

just as bad, I'd say, are the ones that claim something only took them like 2 hours total, when it looks like something that would've taken like, you know, maybe 5 at the least. and they'll even be calling it a "doodle/sketch".

Anyway, after a terrible restaurant experience where we were "bumrushed and bamboozled" (as we put it afterward) into getting a plate of chicken feet (covered in sauce, but the shape is unmistakable, and so is the fact that you can't even stick a fork into it 'cause it's just...bone), we went back home -$35 broker, and somewhat emptyhanded, hungry and tired (it was cold and we were kinda lost) from the overall experience. No regrets though!
----
After watching the parade and the balls on tv (wrapped in a blanket on the couch now, lawl), I felt like, I dunno. How can all of these conspiracy theorists and general anti-Obama people keep saying that he's some sort of NWO puppet, or that he hasn't ever done anythiing and how he's all talk, and does mass-mind control when he gives his speeches. That he's really some sort of evil... like, entity with all of these malicious intentions. Glancing at their websites quickly, they're all over the flub from when he was getting sworn in.

I weeped several times though, including when Beyonce sang for their first dance. That smile on his face, looks sweet and genuine to me. Those daughters look like real kids (the kind that alternate between being bored and thinking things are pretty cool). His wife looks like a normal person that feels like she's somewhat caught in a blender of things happening around her and trying her best to play her part. To me, they don't look fake, or part of something sinister, or are feeling like they have to hide something sinister that they know about, and most of all, I'm even moved that this guy, has the ideals that I hold.

As much as I like guys like David Icke, do they seriously believe that Obama is what they're saying he is?

I'm going to need proof, because while I admit I can't see what's going on behind closed doors, I can see for myself that Obama seems different. I'm feeling the same about him as I did when I wanted him to win the presidency, and I love that feeling so much more than the one of apprehension and disgust I had even more recently. And if I'm some sort of ignorant sheep for it, then I'm going to play the ignorance is bliss card, lol.

GOOGLE: fluoride (keywords: "fluoride chinese study")
please note among the info, it makes us dumber. It's in the tap water, which by the way means its in our food (like apples if that's what they're watered with, tuna fish, etc) You also can't boil/freeze it out, there's no way around it.

GOOGLE: chemtrails (or youtube it)
apparently weakens our immune system? too unclear but it's happening in our skies. Look up in the air sometime. We're breathing this in.
---------------------------------------------------------------
The sad thing is, these are two things we really can't do anything about other than write letters to our representatives you know? But put it into your perspective; don't ever follow anything blindly, and always question...

The more people know about these things (and by the way, being skeptical comes AFTER you've looked at the information, otherwise it's just assuming, and not looking at all when you can is just... I dunno, consented ignorance?), the more likely we can regain control of our home.

But first, we need people to be informed, get angry, spread the word... one voice is a potential, but it won't be enough for the most part. We need to move together.

These are only two of the MANY things people are waking up to (some are connecting the dots), something is going on and we need to do a bit more questioning than we have been.

The people I personally know and have approached on this, brush it off while rattling off some easy-to-argue-if-they-knew-better conclusion they're sure hasn't been refuted by now. Or give me a response akin to a "pat on the head" (ex. Oh yeah? hey, check out my opinion on THIS )

This is something only a few people out of the many, know is probable, and the few that have experienced it first-hand (you know who you are), know for sure. And it's not restricted to one area on the globe either, or one time period.

And the funny thing is, you won't find out for yourself until it's too late. Every single human that's ever been alive, supposedly finds this out. So wouldn't they be interested in a heads up if they had the chance?

See? Already sounds like crazy talk, and I haven't even said what it is.

Among all the garbage information there is in the world, drowned out by all the people with the loud voices yelling nonsense, how do you get people to listen to something that actually matters?

Even worse, this is something beautiful.

Annnnd, between his dislike of women (grrr "dislike" might be putting it kindly), his cause of death (eating a meal of wild boar that didn't sit well with him, which goes against ahimsa... as in, the renunciation of all intent to kill and harm), and just his general striking me as just another leader of a religious movement (yep, I'm totally right and follow these laws and I have disciples, I'm Buddha! I'm awesome!) and as a bonus, I don't even like the parent doctrine he made, from what I've read I like what it's evolved into today instead for the most part.

Still reading up on stuff. Admittedly turned off a bit.
----
Also, I can now say I have two favorite rap/hip-hop artists. Saul Williams and Immortal Technique. They're not what I expect from the typical artist of the genre y'know?

]]> ~celipa http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/20821885/ http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/20821885/ Sat, 04 Oct 2008 08:55:00 PDT (I'm honestly expecting no bites though.)

Why $5? 'cause I'm not sure what you'll get and I'm new at this.
What I -can- say about it is, most likely it'll be similar to something in my gallery/scraps (they're pretty much all in the same style) except I won't try coloring it. If you do want me to try coloring, throw in another $1.

If you go to my gallery and break stuff up by how they're organized (dudes, beasts, couples, gals, and WoW screenshot manips) that's pretty much how I'll roll. Notice I don't do busts, backgrounds, I lean towards creamy colors, and they all have some sort of tweaking with after scanning.

But, I'm willing to break from my comfy spot.

Cool with me:
Furry/anthro (probably not on the bubbly cutsey side I'm afraid)
characters (I'm hoping for a reference, if not, hope for the best haha)
beasties
couple (romantic? dramatic? cutsey? other? sure)
fights


I'll probably butcher:
mechanical
armors w/out reference
realism

So without the blahblahblah
a "sketch" is $5
optional:
+additional character = +$2
+photoshop color stuff = +$1
-----------------
$5-$8 commission

Payment will be paypal style, USD(to worminapeach@gmail.com)
We'll work out any details between you and me, sound good?

I don't even remember really how I stumbled along it, but I think it all started with the book "The Quantum and the Lotus". I have a pretty basic understanding of physics, but I definitely have an interest in it, and the same went for Buddhism at the time. It was a great find for me.

As an introvert interested in a lot of things (lots of them people would place you in the weirdo realm for *shrug*) I feel like I've finally arrived at a "Big Picture".

There are still things to figure out, like how animals figure in to it, and I'm not saying I have everything figured out (infact, I'd like to make it clear that I don't know -anything-) and I only have my own perception to go by, but I'd like to say it's the conclusion made by a very happy individual who's had way more time than she's deserved to just wonder and think, and try to understand.

So with that in mind, I think Buddhism is onto something.

]]> ~celipa http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/20494765/ http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/20494765/ Sun, 14 Sep 2008 18:17:56 PDT So, this is of secret interest to me, but I figure it's an interesting topic to just about anyone.

I've read and listened here and there, and what's interested me the most is (hang in there while I throw in some weird words on the off-chance someone wants to go google this up) this whole "fertility cult" around the paleolithic age that was a "partnership society" that might've worshipped a female goddess (they weren't sure where babies came from, other than that they came from females... sooo, females were seen as the bringers of life, and therefore, all of the other life around them must have come from a universal female. ta-da!)

So we have this peaceful, matriarchal society, and then we have the Indo-Europeans, nomads that came along and conquered them.

These nomads mainly killed animals for food, and to control and protect and castrate and slaughter big animals, you need to be a manly man. So they were all about dominance and distancing their emotions and used to the whole flesh rending bit (and also, out of efficiency, they figured out selective breeding, and were able to make the connection with people. So, they even saw their own females as controllable, and along came the purity of the male blood-line).

These invaders also brought with them a mountain-dwelling sky god (Indra), as well as the concept of dark being bad, and light being good. To assimilate these people, came the religious beliefs of a female deity, named Diti (symbolized as a serpent... btw, one of the old goddess' symbols was the serpent), the enemy of the Aryans. It's believed the Rigveda was written after the plundering of the agricultural peoples.

By the way, the word “caste” in sanskrit is varna, which means “color”; the paler skinned Aryans didn't want to mingle with the darker skinned original inhabitants.

Eventually, this echoed in other religions, most popular of all in Adam and Eve.
----------------
I pretty much got this from a book called the World Peace Diet (written by Will Tuttle, a monk with a PhD), but I think it was onto something if it's true. I condensed this as much as possible, but there was a lot more information that the book touched on.

Has anyone ever heard of this? Wish to debunk it?

It's just weird, thinking that he's looking at these (occasionally? usually?) more ideal strange women, and not YOU, you know? You know it doesn't mean anything (very shallow), but at the same time it bugs you, right?

I start it up again, and go about business as usual... except after playing a bit of the Sims 2 (something I usually do), the computer suddenly goes into this huge error thing and my operating system (Vista) won't even load up at all.

Long story short, it tries to recover itself, and everything is still on my hard drive but I can't get to it. So after awhile of trying different things, I end up admitting defeat (there goes all my stuff.....) But on the bright side, I get to install good ol' Windows XP in its place.

Easier said than done, man.

Apparently every company's trying to push Vista, so I had to employ my boyfriend's man-brain to make sense of and hunt down the drivers I needed. Man what a mess. Attempts, recovery, installing, etc, it's an all-day production, but I'm back up and running! I had made a backup cd (see? I'm not totally stupid!) of some of my more favorite files... or so I thought. The one folder I probably wanted the most is inside a folder that DID burn correctly, but when I go to access this favorite folder of mine... it's empty. My personal little collection of Kumo and Cel drawings from across the years...

So, it's safe to say Windows Vista gets a very big fat thumbs down from me. I thought I'd give it a try, that maybe a bunch of people just might be wrong. (1gb minimum to run was pretty ass, sure. Aeros making my computer freeze every 20 minutes so I had to have it on the basic look to do anything? eh, I figured I'd get over it... annoying "are you suuuure?" pop-ups, useless features, the fact that it was taking up like 40GB of my harddrive just to freaking be there, etc...)

I'm relieved, but also pretty bummed. Thankfully I had uploaded a lot of my drawings to this Devart gallery, but still, I did lose a shit load of stuff. Starting from scratch on my mp3 collection for example.

Fuck Vista.

"Forever Zero is a Gundam RPG with a rich story and a long history. We are a group of players who have been at this since 2000 or so, when we took what was then a run-of-the-mill Gundam Wing RPG and turned it into our own story. We dumped the old, poorly written rehashes of that universe and made our own continuity.

As a result, for what is going on 8 years, we have enjoyed a loyal core of players who have stuck with us through thick and thin, and in that time we've developed into a friendly, creative group of players.

This story and universe, while based off of the themes of the Gundam mythos, is uniquely our own, and we'd like to invite you to come join us. We are a "freeform" roleplaying game, focusing more on character development and writing fun, interesting stories than number crunching and stats. Stories can be as complex or as simple as you would prefer; the power of creation is in the hands of you, the player.

Our website, a work in process, can be found at [link]

We typically play during 9 PM to 11:30 PM EST, on IRC ( #Forever_Zero on irc. esper.net ). We are also in the process of starting a forum-based RPG, with a story that's interwoven with the IRC's plot as a prequel.

If you are looking for a mature atmosphere with a friendly playerbase and a fresh story with a different look at the Gundam mythos, then we'd love to have you.

As one of the RPG's GMs, I'd also like to hear from you (obsidianxs on AIM, antidevil@gmail.com on MSN Messenger and Google Talk.) I'll answer any questions you might have about the RPG, and work with you to help integrate your story ideas into the game.

Check us out, you might find a new home for your creativity.

-Josh"

psst: Or you can IM me! milky peachy

If you want to reach me, you can do so through Google Talk (or is it called Gchat...). I think I like it a whole LOT better plus I can be on it from work.

It doesn't have all the bells and whistles (or ads) as AIM. The only real downside I see to it is that you need to have a g-mail account to use it.

Otherwise you can use it while you check your gmail, or you can download the client thingy which is currently taking up 6,376k memory versus my AIM which is taking up 21,948k (and is that "aolsoftware.exe" thing related? +3,216k more?)

Hopefully I'll start some pages and put them up. I know I'm not going to stress how polished it looks just in case I'm the only one that likes it (a mug only a mother could love?), I know I'm fine with scratchy linework.

But instead of talking bitterly, I'll spin this into a thank you to all the people that have commented on my stuff. I have a mental list of who in particular has been very generous about it (Kame and Lazzy especially) The feedback is totally appreciated.

I'm very conscious of my drawings. Like, I don't feel I could ever sell for much, I would charge $5 or like $2 for something I drew. I try to cover what ever I draw like as if it was a porn picture or something. My boyfriend who I've lived with and I'd trust my life with has barely even seen half the stuff I even have up on Deviantart (even though he'd like to)

But I also feel like I've been going about this a little one-sidedly. There are some people on Devart I try to comment as much as possible on, read their damn journals when they probably don't ever look at mine, I know I don't have a lot of friends but it's still a little unnerving to me to see some real dickhead artists with lots of support...

Guess it's true what they say about art being an extension of your self. Or something.

Thanks to whoever took the 30 seconds to read this. I know seeing large journal entries is a turn off.

Removed stuff that sucked or was just embarassing. Some stuff I kept only because people seemed to like it (like that really really crappy DBZ sketch I might have to Photoshoppafy and re-upload. sigh)

The 10 free sketches thing is still going on. 3 spots are still open, need a reference for Tess, trying to gather up the nerve and an awesome pose and mood for the Guts (Berserk fanart), and feel like I just need to get into the mood for the Horus one.

No rush I guess though.

There's a talented DA member that made a pretty impressive comic on the subject (totally biased, but still, it came out very well)

His version of Goku is kinda creepy. I never really thought about what Goku would look like in another artist's interpretation. It's weird, kind of like you can't quite get away with a comfortable Mickey Mouse artist interpretation all the time.

Anyway, for anyone interested, the comic!:

When you disattach yourself from it for awhile you can go "yeah it sucked" but if you really enjoyed it and go through some clips, you'll probably remember all over again why you enjoyed watching it. Plus some of the family/friend minglings were totally unexpected/retarded/great? Bulma and Vegeta anyone? Wtf

For all that trash filler fighting, I think they should've shown more scenes where everyone was just hanging out, having a normal day. They sprinkled some of it in here and there, but definitely not enough. Also, the fights in the movies were somewhat impressive... hm, if only that "Dragon Box: The Movies" thing that Toei animation was selling (Free scouter!) had an english subtitles feature. The Japanese voices (I always felt) were so sincere sounding to me I wouldn't mind at all. ]]> ~celipa http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/8670150/ http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/8670150/ Thu, 04 May 2006 09:05:57 PDT
The Alliance on my server are absolute dickheads. There's this one particular guild called Zephyros. I don't know what their deal is, but they're tier2 wearing mother fuckers that are kill-Horde-on-sight. And they're not usually alone. They do not hesitate for a SPLIT second.

If you're in a neutral town, they will use every exploit, as long as you are dead they are happy. As long as you resurrect and they can kill you again they are happy. If you by any chance get revenge on the asshole that got you, 2-4 more of them show up to wipe you out and camp you (because for whatever godawful reason they're close to each other) It doesn't help that the Horde are outnumbered as it is...

All of them are dicks. There was even the one time for a world boss event where a Horde guild that my boyfriend was in was being unbothered by the other Alliance guild nearby that wanted a shot at the boss... the Horde guild was fucking up Zephyros' attempts. Of course it meant a bloody map-wide skirmish that Zephyros won but it kept them from progress right?

The only time I've ever seen Zephyros put in their place was when they mess with a hotshot Horde guild for whatever reason The Flying Hellfish, Sardaukar, and Auphan are all pve-heavy and seem to avoid pvp encounters like what Zephyros does though. So Zephyros asshats roam freely.

And therefore, ALL of Silithis is a deathtrap if you're a Horde, all the camps are infested and trying to work up Cenarion rep is a nightmare.

I sort of wonder if such a pvp server exists where this is the other way around. I seriously doubt it.

Soooo bored. Boyfriend on the computer, can't play WoW... I sat down on the messed up couch, turned on the tv, looked for something to watch... ah, here we go: some documentary on the holy grail. Yeah, sure. *click*


...zzzzzz *forgets to take garbage out*

In other news, I got my hours reduced (because no one can take working a long ass office support job for full time hours with no full time benefits at this age) and so I should have more time for drawing or something, if I ever care enough to.

Last night I kinda stared through my sketchbook, unimpressed by the pencil work in there. I've just been turned off for months because I can't a) color worth a damn b) draw anything I actually like and would want to show off/someone can relate to (ie like a character) c) ..I can't find a pencil (with lead. Oh wait, there's some, but I don't want to put it in. Not really, eh, not worth it, blegh) ]]> ~celipa http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/7375894/ http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/7375894/ Wed, 21 Dec 2005 18:21:11 PST I have a couple of interesting stories about it I guess, but mostly the job is a brain rotting way of bringing in cash I wouldn't really be getting otherwise.

I got online today, went through a few things, and realized I was short some people that were inspirational to me, with possibly no way of getting them to look my way again.

How do you repair a friendship that wasn't quite there? You can, right?

So what's a little fool like me to do?
Hope that an opportunity arises someday where that won't be the case anymore, hope I come across new people that are worth listening/watching, or just be shit out of luck.

These people were one of a kind. I could shut up and listen to them talk all day.
Maybe you know who you are (if you're even reading this).

Atleast I have my one left.

By the way, is it possible to forget how to draw just from not doing it for awhile? Sometimes I wonder. Maybe I should try warming up or something. I'd like to see if I've improved once I'm on the ball and interested again. ]]> ~celipa http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/6776884/ http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/6776884/ Sat, 15 Oct 2005 17:40:17 PDT
Well, sorry for not commenting lately. It's not that I got a life, it's that I got a new mmorpg to play and I just haven't really drawn anything. This past monday I got a temp job too working as a secretary aid in the neurology dept of the Children's Hospital here in Pitt. 12/hr supposedly. Hey, it's something.

I'll try to come back and leave something, mostly in the form of comments. I guess I'll admit I drew a few things (Chald mostly) but my scanner wasn't plugged in and I didn't want to waist precious World of Warcraft time plugging it in, scanning, coloring, uploading... meh.

Ehhhhhhh ]]> ~celipa http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/6171605/ http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/6171605/ Mon, 08 Aug 2005 18:26:04 PDT
So there we go.
For the Horde. zug zug ]]> ~celipa http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/5920622/ http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/5920622/ Wed, 13 Jul 2005 06:21:25 PDT Just send a DA note or e-mail (worminapeach@gmail.com) or AIM (milkypeachy) or however the heck you wanna do it. Just a heads up, you'll probably reach me faster with the e-mail since I play World of Warcraft all day.

Nothing fancy: (but to cover my ass)
*In my style of course.
*I hardly ever ink so please don't ask, I just don't have the patience/too damn lazy/not enough practice. If you do, I'll give it a shot but if I mess up then I'm not redrawing it
*I'll send the bugger (read: pencil drawing) in the mail to you when it's done. And I'll Photoshoppafy it. You know how I Photoshop by looking through mine gallery. See? Nothing fancy.
*I'll chip off a buck from the price if you "give" me a song to listen to while I draw it. To set the mood you want the thing to be to (and yes, I can listen to the same song for like 2 hours straight) I guess that is ideal for character drawings, which I have a preference for drawing anyway.
*If you want me to draw you something complicated, I'll draw 2 hours worth of it.
*If you couldn't figure it out, you're pretty much buying me to sit down for 2 hours and just concentrate on drawing you this thing for $6 (or 5!) bucks. Yeah. So if you think it sucks I'll cry. (I won't, but I'll try not to disappoint anyway)
*I -will- more than likely ask you questions so you get what you want. Be a little accessible plz.
*I'd rather draw animals than backgrounds. Backgrounds require attention span and interest. I lack, but I can try *shrug* I hate hate hate drawing machinery (this includes cars and guns) If you had a weapon in mind, Heaven help me because I suck at making weapons look cool without lots of trial and error (and even then, heh)
*Anything else, feel free to ask. I don't see myself as an intimidating person to talk to/I'm more afraid of you than you are me/I'm not pressed for money/I'm just doing this for toys/talk to me just to say "hi"/ I'm a pretty casual person/moo glah glah

Anything else? Eh... *fidgets with wrist* Oh yeah, I also want to do art trades. Gimme gimme gimme. ]]> ~celipa http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/5263709/ http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/5263709/ Wed, 04 May 2005 09:35:26 PDT caudaequina

I don't really like how my gallery is (too much dumb stuff is up) and I don't really like my username and Deviantart's policy is dumb, as we all know.

But on the other hand, everyone is already situated here. And I do mean everyone. Why inconvenience myself checking back here anyway? meh

So I'm sorta just going to wait for that final nudge to get me packing. I think it'd be fun to start fresh, especially because I have quite a few new drawings that are just waiting for upload, buuuut, I dunno if it's worth it. Maybe Sheezyart is also a dumb waste of time.

So far the people that interest me that are already at Sheezyart are lavabeast, otakud00d, and Khaleoud. ]]> ~celipa http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/5023981/ http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/5023981/ Thu, 07 Apr 2005 09:42:23 PDT ]]> ~celipa http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/4835646/ http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/4835646/ Thu, 17 Mar 2005 09:22:51 PST
My brainchild story has been burgeoning.
I'm still trying to come up with a solid introduction/way to pull it off without it being jaded/too much info at once/boring.

Trades: Still waiting on 's (probably in vain)
Still waiting on 's too, and pretty much working on her second piccie. says he owes me a pic from participating in his contest, and I still don't know what I want him to draw me.

Interested in doing art trades! Send meyuh note! If you tower over me in talent, I'll do my best to match whatever you throw at me. ><

Wouldn't it be awful if there was a scale that measured your artistic talent? Eeee *runs away* ]]> ~celipa http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/3908677/ http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/3908677/ Sun, 02 Jan 2005 23:25:15 PST
One day, mark my words.... ONE DAY, I'll get 's and 's pictures owed to me. I still await anxiously until that day... last I checked the latter's was almost done. Bwua ha ha ha ha...

's pic of Celipa will keep me sated in the meantime. If you wanna see it: [link]

Also, for those that care, Chald is probably going to be getting an iconic makeover. I'm on a.... uh.... I don't really know what the label for it is.... is "Hermeticism" safe enough? Anyway, he unpurposefully fit quite a few of the gimmicks (red, white, snake, bird, fire, sun, magic, blah blah) and it doesn't help that I've been seeing some interesting parallels between religions (creation myths, similar gods, etc) and I want to play off of that.
That's what I've been doing lately with my time, sorting as much of it out as I can. Trying to get the drawing engine going again though, now that I've got enough material.

Vrrrrm. ]]> ~celipa http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/3565085/ http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/3565085/ Thu, 14 Oct 2004 07:47:33 PDT
It's been decided that it'd be her character ([link]) who's currently nameless, and uh... I am having trouble drawing her and the background, and you'd think that that was the entire picture, but it's not, but whatever it'll get done.

I'm starting to wonder if there's an alternative scene other than a temple entrance that I can pull off. I'm not finding the best resources... whine whine. ]]> ~celipa http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/3486223/ http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/3486223/ Fri, 01 Oct 2004 08:00:42 PDT ~celipa http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/3457874/ http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/3457874/ Mon, 27 Sep 2004 12:21:24 PDT ~celipa http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/2769839/ http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/2769839/ Wed, 30 Jun 2004 07:59:19 PDT
So I was just brushing up on my exploiting the innocent knowledge yesterday, when I came across some weird pictures.

The way most factory farms handle their pigs waste is, it's liquefied, then sprayed onto a nearby field. The fields get saturated, there's runoff, and to my disgust, there are even floods.

Goodness. This is taking pigs wallowing in the muck to a different level. ]]> ~celipa http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/2699205/ http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/2699205/ Sat, 19 Jun 2004 18:28:28 PDT

And after more blahblah about hooking up my scanner, I didn't because I couldn't find the cables.

But through much searching, giving up, glancing around for it, giving up, and then suddenly a stumble on random bag in the kitchen (our place is a mess)... I found the damn things.

So now with the potential of scanning my drawings once again, it's time to actually sit down and draw.

Draw Elizabeth, draw draw draw!! Draw draw draw!!

Fuck, I can't. ]]> ~celipa http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/1714989/ http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/1714989/ Tue, 20 Jan 2004 20:40:23 PST

Been playing lots of FFXI when I can, and because of Mr.LazybutnotaslazyasIbecausehehasajoban dnotme, I have not been able to hook up a scanner to the computer. Not like I have whole backed up art to put up... but, hopefully I'll explode into drawing again sometime. I'm trying to get back into the whole drawing thing... yeah. And at the very least, hang around Devart again.

Anyway, enough yapp'n. ]]> ~celipa http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/1053581/ http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/1053581/ Sat, 09 Aug 2003 20:28:05 PDT ~celipa http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/665725/ http://celipa.deviantart.com/journal/665725/ Sun, 27 Apr 2003 17:32:55 PDT and the
