                <description><![CDATA[ Well, I got bored tonight and looked through old sketchbooks and thought of old times and all my friends here, and then I thought maybe I'd post something like this journal entry.  So that's what I'm doin.<br />
<br />
How are y'all?  I'm doing well, although I came down with a cold yesterday.  Hopefully by tomorrow I will be in full health again.  I've officially started a book illustration career, with the printing of my first illustrated kids' book in March, and the second just last week.  I finished my work on the third book this week, so in a month or two that'll be on the shelves too!  Only the first book is listed on Amazon, but here is a link: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Heroes-A2Z-Alien-Ice-Cream/dp/0972846182">[link]</a><br />
So that's pretty exciting!<br />
<br />
Other than that.... I'm graduating in December from GVSU.  It'll be 4 1/2 years there... I kinda wish I could stay longer.<br />
<br />
I got my hair cut.  I hadn't had it cut (only trimmed) since I started college!  It was pretty long, so I've donated it <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br />
<br />
I also got a new bike.  It's awesome and pink!  A cruiser style bike, so it looks kinda old/retro?  I had forgot how much fun it is to go bicycling!  And it helps a ton for getting around campus.<br />
<br />
I probably still won't visit DA too much in the future, but if you wanna talk sometime, you can email me <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> (i just updated my email address cuz i don't check the old one anymore) I've also got a website, rather in need of some updating, but it has some of my more recent art if you wanna check that out.  I miss you guys too, and it really really makes me happy to know that you're still thinking of me.<br />
<br />
Love!!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I just figured I should have a new  entry for the new year.  I think I  liked 2004 better ... 4 is my favourite  number, and furthermore, I enjoy  writing it.  5, on the other hand,  gives me problems ... you know how they  teach you in kindergarten or whatever,  to do it all in one stroke ... and then  as you learn, you get faster and better  (or faster and worse) at writing, and  eventually your 5 starts to look like S  and you have to go back and add that  extra stroke at the top so people can  be sure that it's a 5 ... yeah.  So  that's the point I'm at now.  And maybe  I like how my 5 looks when I'm done  writing it, but it's still <i>so</i> annoying  to have to go back and add that stroke  to the top.  Now, I know you may say,  "But 4 has two strokes as well!"  But  you see ... it's supposed to.  5 is  supposed to be one solid line that  bends and curves and does strange  things but is still just ONE line.  But  now it's not.  Also I like 4s because I  can be extravagant with them and make  them look like the sign for the planet  Jupiter.  (yeah, i only know that  because i used to like sailormoon.   like, duh.)  Not that I really do that  ... but I can.  Yes, I definitely like  writing 4 better than 5.<br />
<br />
But I'm sure it will be a good year,  all the same!<br />
<br />
I think I'll leave this journal up all  year long.  Maybe not.  We'll see. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So, someone I don't know just IMed me  while I was typing to someone, and an  accept-message came up, but then it  disappeared.  I have no idea who the  person was but I'm sorry!  So ... I  don't know how to contact you (I'm  guessing the person is someone who saw  me here and therefore might be reading  this now) but if you want, I guess ...  leave your SN and I'll IM you?<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ It was just embarassing to have that  old thing there.  I doubt I really have  much to say in this entry though.   Uhhh.  I'm at college now, advancing in  my goal to become a professional  illustrator.  <br />
<br />
I saw a McDonalds sign today and I  noticed its prolific use of "i" as  opposed to "I" and was thinking about  how funny it was that this example of  bad grammar has become something so  acceptable.  And how it wasn't even an  issue really, back when people just  wrote things and didn't have to bother  with pressing an extra key to make  their i capitalized.  And now, it's  totally like, the norm.  Personally, I  capitalize my "I"s always, except when  I'm talking on AIM.<br />
<br />
Oh.  I got some new shoes recently.   They're tan, and I think they're cute,  even though they're really quite  normal-looking.  They're Keds.  Isn't  that like a grandma-brand or something?   Anyway .... they're nice shoes.  I  also got some argyle socks.  I love  argyle!!<br />
<br />
Okay, this is the end for now. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I made a new icon.  It's still making  me laugh stupidly every time I see it,  even though the scene I snagged it from  is rather sad.  Ah well.  Leeeeeeee~   So cute.<br />
<br />
So ... yeah.  I don't use my journal  much.  I'm done with school for the  summer now, if you didn't know, and I'm  working at the lovely local Flowerland  lots now!  *does a cute-cashier pose  (is there such a thing?)*  I've been  crazy for downloading various music and  PVs and other things that quickly fill  my poor hard drive.<br />
<br />
And that's about it.  I don't know, I  really don't.  I've nothing to say in  these things.  So basically, I'm just  letting you all know that I love my  icon.<br />
<br />

These are new.  They're way-cool,  though.<br />
<br />
Our weather was really nice today!!  We  didn't get the snow that was  forecasted, so I'm super-happy.  Now I  need to finish (that is, after i start)  my homework for a class I have in  roughly 1.5 hours.  Bye loves! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /><br />
<br />
(14,633!!!!!)<br />
<br />
a tragic edit:  when I went to class at  quarter to 1, it had started snowing  after all.  ARG I COULD JUST ... CRY  AND POUT AND SOB.  Only an hour, and  the weather goes from glorious to ...  BAD.  Sorry to make this show up in  your messages yet again ... But ugh.  I  soooo hate Michigan. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Too bad it's freezing, inside.<br />
<br />
Tonight I was reading numbers  dyslexicly when I had to type them in  at the end of my night of cashiering  ... it was kinda fun.  Then I came home  and had fish for my dinner, and ate a  peep.  I love peeps ... they sell them  at my work for a dear fifty cents a  package and I discovered a dollar in my  pocket and, you know, I couldn't  resist.<br />
<br />
Cat hair on my monitor.  I think my cat  misses me when I'm at college because  she's really sweet when I come back.   Or maybe I'm just telling myself she  misses me for an esteem-boost, because  I like esteem-boosts TOO MUCH.  Or  maybe she's just spoiled and likes to  be given attention.<br />
<br />
*shivers*  I just realized I'm never  cold in my dorm.  Stupid  lack-of-good-heating-in-the-basement!<br />
<br />
Right so ... next kiriban (i gave in,  i'll use THAT WORD) is 14,633.  14 is  the next closest thousand-number, and 6  3 3 were chosen semi-unknowingly by  people I was talking to.  Good Luck  Have Fun <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /> (the heart is the 4th most  popular emoticon on DA! ) ]]></description>

<br />
I gave myself a new icon, because I was  bored.  It's my art, because I am vain.   (haha.  i'm not really, am i?)  And I  had to go and find a special program  JUST to convert it to .gif!!  I miss my  Photoshop ... someone tell me where I  can pirate one from?  Or any other good  image program?  oC is wonderful but  sometimes I find it lacking ...<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ [obviously someone, they have a sign  that says "Dutch Chili" by the big  soup-pot]<br />
<br />
Anyway, it's pretty good, this chili.   I've been eating a lot of chili and  ramen lately, for some reason.   (cheap?)  And I bought Apple Jacks  yesterday, to breakfast on here at my  dorm.  Usually I just snag a couple  boxes of cereal from home but all we  had was Rice Chex and something like  All Bran (Kellogg's) (oh my, have you  ever realized what a strange  word/brand-name "Kellogg's" is??) and  those aren't very delicious.  So I  bought cereal for myself, cereal that I <i> know</i> my mum would never let me buy if  she knew, and I feel oh-so rebellious.   Wonderful!<br />
<br />
Lots of people are sick lately.  I feel  bad for you.  I hope you all regain  your health soon!!  According to my  mum's theory, I should be sick quite  often because I don't eat very  healthily.  But as you may see, I'm  cheery and well.  I haven't even been  taking my vitamin C lately!<br />
<br />
Last thing for this entry.  Concerning  those things people like to call "kiriban"  ... Since I went over 10,000,  pageviews with all the numbers the same  aren't so common.  So if you happen to  land on my page and the number happens  to be something interesting, let me  know.  And I'll draw you something  maybe.  Yes, this is my very lazy,  laid-back offer to you all.  Or to all  who may care.  Yoshhhhhhhh .... ~!<br />
<br />
Oh, two more things.  One: I am happy  that DA is working rather nicely at the  moment.  Two: I like Asian Kung-fu  Generation a lot.  ^^ ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Fortune cookie fortune writers NEED TO  GET LIVES.  Don't go telling me "<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /> It is  a sunny day. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" />" when it is SNOWING OUT  SIDE.  And what's up with those stupid  smiley faces on either side of the  fortune?  <i>It's not making me any happier</i> , reading a "fortune" that is so  obviously not-true!<br />
<br />
I don't even get a Learning Chinese on  the other side of the fortune ... the  place I get my *cough* fine Asian  cuisine *hack* decided to change  fortune-cookie brands.  So now I get " daily numbers" and "lotto six #'s."  As if  that's going to benifit me any.<br />
<br />
Um, aside from that, today I obsessed  over pictures of Lee, stared at my  dramatic Gai-sensei screenshot  background, read a few fics, drew a  crappy little Shino in the distance in  a pic I'm working on, ate way-too-spicy  chicken food, went to classes, and  painted colours.  I really liked  painting the colours, and obsessing  over pictures of Lee is always a fun  way to put off doing homework.<br />
<br />
So are writing journal entries.<br />
<br />
THE TWENTY-THIRD WAS SHINO'S BIRTHDAY.   I missed it.  I'm sorry.  It was also  Sasuke's half birthday, but I'm not  sorry I missed that.  It was <i>also</i> <b>my</b>  half birthday, but I remembered that,  of course. *smiles sweetly*<br />
<br />
Now to do homework.  Seriously.<br />
<br />
(oh, the cleverness of me~) ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ But as I am lacking in money (or  rather, unwilling to spend it because "I  might need it later" ), I drink water  from the faucet in my dorm.<br />
<br />
And after getting pizza again tonight  (i refer back to my last entry, if that  statement lost you), I've come to the  conclusion that it is MEANT to be  partly raw.  As weird as that is.  But  I took some of the sauce-stuff that's  meant to be used with bread sticks, and  it bettered the taste/consistency  considerably.  So all is well.<br />
<br />
Except my lack of soda.<br />
<br />
And the cold snow falling outside that  I'll have to stumble through at 7:40  tomorrow morning.<br />
<br />
And the fact that I am DEFINITELY  getting a new room mate, and her room  is on the second/top floor of our dorm  ... and I don't want to leave mine  *gets weepy* but I don't know why she'd  want to leave hers, either, so I'll  probably end up being the nice-kid who  gives in and moves all my junk to the  other's upstairs room with all the  people I don't know because I'm an  antisocial loser who simply doesn't <i>go</i>  upstairs.<br />
<br />
And all the homework I have to do for  my classes.<br />
<br />
But if I don't think of these things, I  am still a happy person!!  So that  settles it.  *pushes worries out of  mind and settles down comfortably in  chair with pillows and a tall purple  glass of water*  Oh, also, I've been  TRYING to keep somewhat up-to-date with  my dev-messages.  As in, I comment on  new stuff as soon as I see it.  (the  old stuff is still sitting in my box  waiting for attention ... I'm not <i>that</i>  motivated).<br />
<br />
The Enya CD needs to stop.  It's been  on repeat for a few hours now.  *gets  up to change it*<br />
<br />
You know, my journals are pretty  random.  I don't think they have  anything to do with anything, aside  from a need to appease my boredom.  And  put off of homework.  Hehee ... ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Today my pizza was partially raw.  (not  just doughy, but RAW)  Raw pizza dough  has a terrible consistency; it was not  happy.  Vanilla flavoured milk is also  not very good ... the first sip is  kinda tasty like ice cream but it gets  gross really fast.  So I'm thinking  I'll go with chocolate next time.<br />
<br />
And I guess I'm getting a new room mate  after all, at some point soonish.  Bah  ... I was enjoying having the room to  myself too.  Getting up at 7 is a lot  easier when you can turn on the light  and open cupboard doors without  worrying about waking up the other  person.  Plus I can be a slob and no  one will think anything of it.  Again  I'm reminded of my perfect-future  dream: living in a nice, small  apartment in some [Canadian] city.<br />
<br />
Happily, I belive my slippers have  decided which foot each belongs to,  despite being exactly the same by all  outward appearances.  I think it's  pretty smart of my slippers.  I feel  like some proud parent when I think of  them ........<br />
<br />
(roughly 7 hours and 15 minutes till a  certain anime is finished airing in  Japan.  someone is getting impatient  ... )<br />
<br />
I didn't do very much today because I  was lazy.  I will try to be better  about that tomorrow, loves.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Yo ho ho, my happy fools.  I hope your  Christmases and New Years and Gai's  Birthday Celebrations were all VERY  GRAND!  Sorry I wasn't able to share  them with you though.  I was banned  when I came back from work on Christmas  Eve, and wasn't able to log in since  because our home internet server is  blocked.  Now, I'm back at school so my  internet connection is different and  just-like-magic I can log in again.  So  yay, I'm very pleased and loving and  happy and grand.<br />
<br />
And cold.  It finally started snowing  again today.<br />
<br />
ON THE OTHER HAND, I have a week and  four days worth of messages to ... do  something with.  I already deleted your  journals (... sorry ^^; ) but I don't  know what to do with the deviations.   I'd feel bad clearing them all out  after I JUST did that a couple weeks  ago, but honestly with school resuming <i> tomorrow</i> I don't know that I'm gonna  get to them any time soon.  Rawr.   Mebbe I'll just let them sit and go  visit all your pages personally when I  get the chance/motivation (hoho, i've  gotten so lazy).<br />
<br />
I absolutely HATE how DA looks when I'm  not logged in.  It makes me want to  cry.<br />
<br />
NOW I'M GOING TO UPLOAD THINGS!   *bumbles away* ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Got my grades today ... yarr.  Bs are  pretty good but not good enough to keep  scholarships.  I'm kinda worried ... <br />
<br />
Moving on.<br />
<br />
Since it's getting close and I'm  impatient, I'm going to do another  thing-that-i-won't-call-a-kiriban-unless -someone-tells-me-the-literal-meaning-of -"kiriban" for my 9999th page view.   Beautiful magical number, that.  So  tell me if you get it and you may  command me to draw whatever you want.   Or something like that, yep.<br />
<br />
In the case that you're wondering, I  was ... "inspired" to post this because I  just saw ~<a href="http://coralsnake.deviantart.com/">CoralSnake</a>'s journal title  declaring her kiriban for 2,345 and  thought to myself "I really should tell  people so that my happy 9s don't pass  by unnoticed."  Anyway, if you miss  mine, try to get hers.  Actually, hers  is closer so never mind that.<br />
<br />
Um.  I had frosting on Club crackers  for lunch.  Sugar's good.  Makes my  head loony. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I'm kinda alive again.  Hi, everyone!   I'm unproud to admit that after four  months of trying (sometimes more  half-heardedly than other times) to  comment/view all my devmessages, I gave  up and deleted all one thousand some  hundred of them.  All.  From now on,  I'm trying to start over again and  comment regularly and view all you  lovely people's lovely arts!!  So,  please forgive me for my lack of  being-around-ness over the past couple  weeks ^^;;  And if there's something I  never got around to commenting that you  really wanted me to see, poke at me and  let me know, and I'll check it out!<br />
<br />
Other than that ... um ... Naruto 197  is out *joy* and I made a wish last  night that came true.  *stares at the  first page pic for a few minutes  straight*  Yes ... that was a good wish  to make.  The rest of the chapter was  pretty good too ... but you can't beat  that cover-pic!!<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ I'm really hungry.  I need to be  feasting soon.  I haven't had breakfast  yet, out of anticipation/laziness.<br />
<br />
But Happy Birthday to Lee-san!!  That  makes today entirely GOOD!  I hope you  all have a pleasant day!<br />
<br />
Joined a new club ... (or sent a note  to join):<br />
<a href="http://beautyandbeast.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/b/e/beautyandbeast.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="beautyandbeast" title="beautyandbeast" /></a><br />
<br />
It was inevitable: first <a href="http://sakuraclub.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/s/a/sakuraclub.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="sakuraclub" title="sakuraclub" /></a> and then <a href="http://rockleefanclub.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/r/o/rockleefanclub.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="rockleefanclub" title="rockleefanclub" /></a>.   Now we've got them both!  YAY.<br />
<br />
Update on weather--my other favourite  thing to talk(/complain) about!  It's  still freezing but the snow melted and  it warmed up enough to rain.  I'm  barefoot at the moment though.  RenN, I  have no socks so you can't even steal  them!<br />
<br />
You know what I really want right now?   Croissants.  I hope we have some .... ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ SNOW.  AHHHHH.  DOOM IS ON US.<br />
<br />
*sighs and mopes around*  First snow of  the season.  You'd think a  Michigan-dweller such as myself would  be used to it.  But I'm hateful and sad  and freezing now.  I almost walked into  a car this morning because if I looked  up the wind would make me CRY, so I  only saw the car when I was two inches  in front of it, at which time I looked  up with an "Oh ... !" and saw the driver  giggle at me.  Rar.<br />
<br />
But!  There is a happy part to my  story.  I wore my scarf!!  And it kept  my nose warm!  *dances*  Now all I need  are slippers and some hot cocoa and the  new Asian Kung-fu Generation CD to  finish downloading, and I'll be grand.<br />
<br />
And in 3 days, it's Lee's birthday!!!<br />

I finally joined another club [edit: or  two] ... bwaha.  And on another note,  if you happen to get my 8,888th page  view, and show me ... I will ...  *glances to side* ... draw something  for you.  *goes into coughing fit*   Ahem.  Because I'm a LOSER WHO COPIES  THE TRENDS and because I am bored  (dunno why, there's plenty of HOMEWORK  waiting to be done) and more likely  just because I want to know who gets my  lucky-8 hit.  I won't call it a kiriban  though, because I don't know what that  word literally means and don't want to  use it unless I do.  I'm stubborn like  that.  So yeah, anyway ... um ... I'm  off!  BYE!!<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Haha, so what's new, right?  AHHH!!!  Lys went to JAFAX!  Michigan's  own anime-convention!  And since she has a job (yesss!!!) she bought  stuff.  One Piece CD (AHH!!  Usopp Drop is the GREATEST SONG EVER!!!  *happy-explodey-lys*), .hack//Liminality CD, Ai Orikasa CD ... I'm  trying to figure out where I've heard of her before, I bought the CD  thinking Nanase Aikawa but it ... wasn't.  Still good though.  Two  HikaGo posters (Saiiiiiii!!!  *squeal*) and a One Piece poster  (LUFFY-SAN!!!!!! *faint*), keychain with Zoro and Vash pics ... hehehe.   Yes, I'm done bragging now.  But AHH, it was SO MUCH FUN!  I wanted to  go back Sunday too but parents left for a potluck and of course, I  CAN'T DRIVE GRR.  But Saturday was nice ... <br>
<br>
I went with my friends <a href="http://runeaegis.deviantart.com">Dani</a> and <a href="http://lavendrose.deviantart.com">Laura</a> and met <a href="http://chibi.deviantart.com">Chibi</a> and <a href="http://stellachan.deviantart.com">Esther</a> and <a href="http://akroma.deviantart.com"> Kristine</a> and <a href="http://kasu-chan.deviantart.com">Jenna</a> for the first time and they are COOL people.  Yay!!   Go visit them all ^^<br>
<br>
Let's see, what else?  Brother's become addicted to the anime/manga  Scryed and already downloaded the whole series (I've taught them too  well, sigh).  And Lys wants to work at JAFAX next year ... that'd be  cooooool.<br>
<br>
I joined a club!  Imagine that!!  <a href="http://asians-united.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/asians-united.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a> is cool and founded by wonderful <a href="http://crim-chan.deviantart.com"> Crim-chan</a> and I am a supporter.  I think.  Go join, people!! ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Need new entry.  Title is because the bowl that once held my ramen was  the first thing I saw when looking around for inspiration.  Now what?   Um ... <br>
<br>
Oh!  I got a new sketchbook recently!  There's something.  Only 5 pages  used so far, I believe.  But it inks ever-so-much better than my last  one, and that makes me very very happy.  Now I need to find pretty  pictures to print up and put on the front so it's not so dull and brown  (though brown is a nice enough colour).<br>
<br>
I been listening to all sorts of music I never did before, or at least  not recently.  Like right now, there's this Naruto BGM playing called  "Nine Tail Demon Fox" i think and it's like, totally new to me.  And  now ... "SHIPPO" song!  By Junko Iwao?  Nothing to do with the little  fox-boy we all luv (as far as I know), but a CYUUTE song all the same!<br>
<br>
And do you know how TOTALLY annoyed I am with stupid telemarketers who  call for my dad who of course IS NOT HERE but at work! and they're all  like, "when would be a better time to reach him?" and i say in a few  hours so they're like "noon?  1 o'clock?"  "Noooo ... more like 5:30.  [GO AWAY!!, I am thinking]."  It's not like he's gonna want to talk to  them either ... growl ... <br>
<br>
Anyway ... that's all.  We're happy, we're cool.  La-dee-daaah.  I want  chocolate ... ^^ ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Ok, for one thing, calling it soda where I come from is kinda weird.   Most people say pop.  (but i like soda better for whatever reason ^^;;  ).  Anyway, I was talking to a certain some one and the subject of one  soda called Squirt came up.  And she didn't know what that was ... for  those of you who also don't, it's a citrus-y soda, I think like Citra.   And then I asked another certain some one (from like, another totally  different part of the country) if she knew of Squirt and she didn't  either.  But they both knew Citra.  So anyway, I'm like .. totally  weirded out by this.  How can there not be Squirt?  It's just like ...  soda!  Hmm.  My can of it here says it's bottled under the authority of  Dr Pepper/Seven Up ... yeah ... so anyway.  Is there anyone else who  knows what Squirt is?  Or who doesn't?  I think it's kinda interesting  ...<br>
<br>
Yeah, so that's all I have to say for now.  Drink soda and be happy,  y'all! ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I did a search for "triclops" the other day (most of the results were  my own) and found a cool picture of a three-eyed lass.  Then to-day I  did a search for "three-eyed"  Most of the results of <i>that</i> search were  random pictures containing the word "eyed" but a few were triclops  (triclopses?  i really need to figure out what the correct plural is!)  and so, for the convenience of all interested, here's a random list of  links to three-eyed folk:<a href="http://randomartist.deviantart.com"></a><br>

<br>
Thank you all for making the world a more wonderfully three-eyed place  ^^  And now that I've wasted most of 5th hour ... I'm off to do a  Google image search for more triclops(es)~!  Maybe that'll keep me  entertained in 6th hour too!<br>

                <description><![CDATA[ Ha, like I'm EVER cool.  Though in one sense it is true ... the  basement of a house in Michigan is never a very <u>warm</u> place to be.   ^^;;;<br>
<br>
So like ... I bought clothes yesterday!!  Like, 4 whole shirts!!  Like,  yeah ... I love having a job .... even though it eats up all my time,  and then eats more for dessert (seriously folks, don't take me  seriously right now ... i'm insane and cold and it's not a good  combination.  It makes me .... weird.)  But yeah.  Now I'm just waiting  for the weather here to get warm and STAY warm so I can actually wear  my new shirts.  They're cool, two have all these random French-stuffs  on them ... and one is green ^^^^^^^^^^^^^<br>
<br>
Is there anything else to say?  Probably not.  Nothing unusual is  happening ... except ... my toes are slowly turning into popsicles of a  not-so-tasty sort.  Frostbite!! ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ No more Spring Break.  Just work and school ... and art, always art.  I  drew Shippo to-day, and Kirara!!  *squeals*  It's so cute, if I DO say  so meself.  I did a search for "kirara" on deviantART and only found 12  results ... that was kinda weird.  So I guess when I get mine up and  coloured (and I <i>will</i>, eventually!) there'll be 13.  Shippo has the  cutest ears ... along with my oh-so-belovèd Kaioushin-sama *squeals  again*  <br>
<br>
Anyway.  I'm proud of my Kirara-drawing because I've never been great  at drawing animals, most particularly kitty-animals, so this is some  sort of a great accomplishment for me.  I need a picture of her tail  though (when she's in her bigger form) to see how the markings go.<br>
<br>
Oh, what's another thing?  I have work to-night.  Yes.  I'm going to go  home and watch the anime I've had on tape all week but no time to  watch, and then I'll do my little homework-thing  for psych, and then  I'll go to work and hopefully it will be better than Tuesday.  And  that's my night! ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Spring break.  And Michigan gets SNOW!!!  It's ridiculous, it really is  ... I envy all you Floridans and other dwellers of the warm climates.   Even Michigan should not get snow in <i>April</i>!!<br>
<br>
To move on to other topics ... Lys is reading BOOKS again!!  I read a <i> Hamlet</i> adaption, with a happy ending ... that was interesting.  And I  finally finished <i>Jackaroo</i> by Cynthia Voigt, after starting it for the  third time ... now I'm reading <i>On Fortune's Wheel</i> also by her ... it's  my favourite of the series so I'm reading it again.<br>
<br>
Ah, what else am I doing over Spring Break?  Watching downloaded anime,  listening to One Piece musics (the few I manage to find on KaZaA),  starting my JOB!!  (yes, Lys has a source of income now ... she is a  cashier ... to-day will be her first day and she is rather nervous  about that ... )  And wondering why, with all this free time, I can't  manage to draw anything decent--even on the rare occasions I get  inspiration, I lose interest before finishing the picture.  'Tis bad.<br>
<br>
I'm cold again ... need my blanket ... <br>
<br>
Happy birthday to my mum!!  I baked her a cake ^^ (the one thing I  ever manage to bake without messing up or getting bored before I've  finished). ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I'm happy to-day ... I was happy yesterday.  I went to Chicago  yesterday, and looked at art at the museum there.  And then I went to a  French restaurant and ate crêpes (spinach and gruyere cheese, YUM!!).   And we watched movies on the bus ... Princess Bride, Ever After, Lilo  and Stitch ... And then I got home and I've been insane ever since.   But as long as I'm happy, it's good.<br>
<br>
So, I hope you all have a happy day too!!  Or I'll send Luffy to stare  at you and grin at you until you break down and laugh at his  weirdness!! ^^ ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ translates to "Wars are stupid!!!" because they are.<br>
<br>
To-day is very grey.  And chilly.  It makes me sad, yesterday was very  nice ... warm, sunny, springish.  And now we are back to the deadness  that is end-of-winter.  Dead grass, dead trees, dirty snow, cold air  ... <br>
<br>
Yeah, it's not very happy.  We talked about war-related stuff in French  class (I swear, we get so off-topic in that class!).  And I'm working  on an essay about a book set during/just-previous-to the Vietnam war.   So I'm educating myself on the topic ... (book is <i>A Prayer for Owen  Meany</i>, remember me always talking about that?).  I hate war but I want  to know more about them so that I can better say <i>why</i> I don't like them   You know?<br>
<br>
*sighs*  Everything I do is about war these days.  I don't like it!  It  makes me unhappy and I try to be a happy person ... oh well.  Drawing  angry chibi-Lys kicking a house with the word WHITE helps though ^^;   I shall go upload that in a minute or two ... ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ School ... is a bad thing ... school makes me have no time to work on  art and post it and have inspiration.  And with 20 sketches to finish  by Thursday (yes, it's that time of the marking period again!  And  again, I've waited till the last minute ... ), it's not like I've got  much time to spare drawing things I <i>want</i> to draw--my art teacher thinks  I can better use my time drawing the inside of my mouth and the motor  of my vacuum cleaner.  Ah, sigh!  I can't help but wonder ... will  college art assignments be this bad?  Or will the professors actually  KNOW how to teach their subject and keep their students interested and  improving?  I certainly hope so.<br>
<br>
So, after this week I should be back to uploading again ... look  forward to it!  (isn't that from the next-ep-previews on IY or  something?)<br>
<br>
OH!!  And everyone must download "In the Land of Twilight, Under the  Moon" from .hack//SIGN because it is the best!!  I drew a picture to go  with it ... was up till 3 colouring it this morning (not finished yet  though ^^;; )  Then I woke up at 6:30!  3 and a half hours of sleep  here, folks!<br>
<br>
*bell rings*<br>
<br>
Yay!!  I go home now .... GOODBYE EVIL SCHOOL!  Hello nice sunny  weather!  *rejoices in the warmth* ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Courage the Cowardly Dog has creepy bad guys ... and background music  ... um, yes.  To-night I changed my mood to "laughing" instead of  "bored."  Because for once I am not bored out of my mind!  I'm actually  in a pretty good mood, in spite of the government test review i should  be working on.  Bad Lys.  Government is a stoopid class though ...  *shudders at sound of Courage-bad-guy saying "nauuuuughty .... "*  Ah  well.  Sorry for not having posted more, i've been sooo busy with  school work.  evil evil art class.  I'm cold ... (creepy kids singing  "lalala" playing ... )  AHHH!!!!  *hides*  Ok folkses, that's all for  now.  G'bye! ]]></description>
