My head is gonna explode. It hurts so bad. I'm so stressed out I wanna cry. I just have way too much stuff to do. Don't be surprised if you don't receive a gift from me on Christmas, guys. It's not because I don't love you - it's because I'll probably never get time to do them all. I now have 2 more kiriban images to worry about (2 people got the 13k I guess) and they're both BIIIG. X.x;; And and and... I need to do all my christmas ref pages... and... secret santa and... requests and... college apps and... projects and... just... everything.

I was stupid to thing I could handle everything I'm supposed to. It wasn't like this at all last year. There's just too much now. And instead of actually doing anything I've been falling asleep and doing homework and crap. I fell asleep at 10:30PM last night for the first time in... oh, years at least. I never fall asleep before 1:30 or so. And for me to konk out a full 3 hours early... it isn't sitting well with me. I could've gotten stuff done in those 3 hours! I could've... I can't beleive that happened!!

I stayed home today because whatever was killing my voice last time is back. All I could do today was sleep... I tried so hard to, like, DRAW and actually DO something but I found I couldn't. It's like someone stole my creativity. My imagination's about as dry as my throat and there's nothing I can do for either afflictions. Tylenol does not affect me and none of my usually-inspiring music is working.

And WHY does everyone seem so depressed and unhappy lately? I mean, for God's sake, it's almost Christmas. Surely there's SOMETHING in everyone's life that is worth being happy about, especially around the holidays. And if there's not, then you or whoever is too scared or too lazy to look hard enough. So many people take their lives for granted... I hate it.

I just want this all to be over soon.

Er, whoops. I got my own kiriban. X3; I dunno if y'all remember me seting the next kiriban to 13k, but that's all right. I was hoping to change it to 15k anyway. xD;; Murr...I still need to finish Alyda's kiriban from ages ago anyway. ^^ Maybe DA's being weird though. If you get the 13k too, just, er, eh.. screencap it or something and you'll get somethin'. o.O;

OMG. So busy... I need to... finish EVERYTHING. x.x I never realized I had so many OCs of my own. @.@;; And, like, NONE of them have decent ref pictures. Or they have no refs at all. xD;;

Ah, the title of this post is the name of the song I'm listening to now. It's called "Hemisphere" by Maaya Sakamoto off the RaXephon anime. I recommend this to y'all! ISH PRETTY! xDDD I haven't had much of a desire to this RaXephon ever since I heard about it, but I tell ya, if it's got music like this, I will SO see it now. xD Just like I didn't start warming up to .Hack until I started listening to its music. Another new piece of music I've got now is "Sadame(Destiny)" composed by James Anderson, off the X TV anime. Muu... I KNOW I've heard this from somewhere besides X... ish so pretty. Violins/cellos/bases = luff. *-*

I have a couple of new art trades about to be lined up. Ooo. Must finish ref piccus! X.x;

- Song: "Gotta Knock a Little Harder" ~ Cowboy Bebop Movie theme
- Lyric: emptiness, a lonley parody/ and my life another smokin' gun/ a sign of my indifference...
- Is thinking: this used to be my personal theme song. xD;;;;

First off, this song rocks. Very bluesy. I dig it. n.n

Second, HAPPY THANKSGIVING! g00ble! xD
I didn't eat much though. Like I've said, I can't eat a lot around other people for some weird reason. x.x; I had... 2 small slices of (warm!!) turkey and a bunch of mashed potatoes. P00f! I'm full! That was it. o.o; I'm still hacking my lungs out. X.X;;

Wowwie, I didn't expect my thanksgiving picture to actually hit people in the heart like it did. o.o But I'm very happy it made some of your guys' days! I'm very honored and humbled to have you all as my friends. Every last one of ya! n.n *huggles to everyone!* Thank you all for putting up with my random ranting outbursts and laziness and annoyingness for the past year+. ^__^ And sorry if I've ever offended you guys somehow. I have a bad habit of being mean without knowing it. ._.;; Muu. *more huggles!* Many many thanks this year to everyone! n.n

And sorry to Wolff Luna! I spelled your name wrong in the list and picture! @.@;; Gomen! *hides under a rock* Muu! X3;;;;

Mya. Still working on Java Neko's new layout. ^^

Hey, about my trade with that John guy... yeah, I think he majorly forgot... or something. --; Haven't heard a peep from him or seen him online since, like, August. He works(used to?) on EsSe's digimon staff, as well as Li Rei's lorien staff(used to too?). In an effort to not get ripped off on a trade again, can someone send me his e-mail or his site address so I can see if he's still alive? I'm sure he just forgot... royally... muu. =/

Oooo, thanksgiving weekend has come a day early! I stayed home today(though we had school) cuz I'm sick again. *hacking her lungs out* AHH. X3;; But I don't mind! I don't have to go back to school till monday! WHEE! So I have NO excuse not to get stuff done... well... so long as I get the computer for more than 10 minutes at a time... which I won't.... *throws a brick at her dad* =_=

I want a laptop so I can hide in my room all day and never come out!
I'm a hermit at heart! X3;;;

Buaa, so I spent all day getting JN's new layout image all colored up and stuff. Come to think of it, I was working on it all day... and I don't know why. o.o WHERE DID THE TIME GO?!? I can't even remember what I did today exactly! I really can't! x.X;;; Al I can remember is myself constantly thinking that tomorrow is friday... and it's not!

Me: Oh, I need to set my alrm clock for Yu-Gi-Oh in the morning.
Other me: Stupid! It's only Tuesday!

Me: I have to make my friday kitty report!
Other me: It's not friday, idiot!

Me: Did I have homework?
Other me: !@#$ It's vacation time! Sleep or something!
Me: ...Okay. *fell asleep* x.x;

My mind hates me. xD; Oph, I have spikes on my wrist now. O.o;; Like, a wide black leather wristband slit into three thinner bands across my wrist. The middle band has lil' baby aluminum spikes and the bands on either side just have metal circular studs. It's from Germany! xDDD My friend went to Germany for a week and I asked him to just get me a lil' cheap German pin-thing for my schoolbag. Nuu... he bought me spikes. X3 "I saw this in a store and it just screamed KELLI at me! I had to get it!" Er, okies. xDD;;; Mya, I still like 'um. n.n

This week sucked. Especially today. Here's what happened.

The stuff about earlier today -LiveJournal entry: [link]

And here's the stuff about tonight. I had to babysit from 6:30 to sometime beyond midnight. I didn't mind, since I needed money and I had nothing to do anyway. For me, it's been an obnoxiously long week so I was already a bit tired when I got there. And lucky me, instead of only 2 kids like I was originally told, there happened to be 4 kids. Whee. --; All of the were around 7-8 in age and they were hyyyyper. *nearly died* While the 2 kids I was originally only supposed to babysit were pretty roudy and screamed VERY loudly, the other 2 little girls were twins and they were soooo cute. xD OMG.

Twins: Wow, are you a real teenager??
Me: Er, yeah. xD
Twins: *excited gasp!* OMG really? I wanna be a teenager so bad!
Me: xDDD;;;...

Then later:

Twins: Next time you come over, you need to teach me all you know about fasion!
Me: Ehh, it's not much but I'll try? xD;;;

They were, like, fascinated with me for some reason. xD;; And they were sooo polite and well-behaved. So cute! If I ever spawn, I want kids like those! xDD So yeah, we watched TV, they did a little sing-and-dance show for me, we had popcorn and rootbeer floats and we watched Finding Nemo and had hot chocolate and stuff... in short, it wasn't as painful a time as I expected. xD;; Then I sent them to bed and I got to sit by the nice warm fireplace for a couple hours and read Harry Potter. n.n Fire ish good!

Ahh, the end of the night and all the adults have come back home. It was nearly 1AM so I left with my dad only a few minutes after they'd arrived. By now I was feeling weary again as I had when I came at 6:30. On the car ride home my mood dropped sourly. I don't know why exactly... my dad has a weird happiness-sucking aura around him, I swear. He kills all my good moods just by sitting in the same room/car as me and he doesn't even have to say anything. -_-;; Anyway, I was given a couple folded bills as my payment from one of the adults earlier and I hadn't bothered to find out how much I was rewarded. I thought maybe at least 80$... at -least-. I babysat, on short-notice, 4 hyperactive-bouncy-loud(but adorable) kids for almost 8 hours on a friday night when I was already visibly tired(with a cough too!).. and I got a measly 40$. It may seem like a lot of money to some, but honestly... I do feel I deserved a bit more than that. So yeah, I feel royally cheated at the moment, hence my mood. Used. Very... Not only that, but I just realized the guy I was originally supposed to babysit for kinda uses me as a back-up babysitter. He only uses me every now and then and I know he's -always- away on long work days and stuff, sooo...

So um, yeah, I'm just gonna tell him No next time he askes me to babysit. My job tonight was worth more than 40$ and I refuse to be cheated or to feel used. I was really counting on that money coming in too. *plans to buy her own gawddamn computer* -__-

***PS: Sorry y'all for not replying to your deviations and journals lately. Too tired. x.x

Whee! *had a 4 day weekend* xDD I took Thursday and Friday off from school because I was still feeling sick. @.@ But m'ish better now. :3 I can speak! Can't yell yet... but I can speak!! xD

Osh, I was getting anxious all day today because I still have to do this stupid Econ project. Being the procrastinator I am, I just now looked at the project guidelines(it's 9:15PM and I had 4 days to do this xD). Guess what? It's a lame little poster project. X3 *got anxious over nothing* Bah! Posters are my academic specialty! *points to her Egyptian mythology poster in her room* Granted, I'll still be up till 3AM doing it, but ah well. X3

OMG I finally used my RightStuf(.com) International gift certificate I got from my grandma last Christmas. X3 I don't know WHY I haven't used it till now. o.O *feels bad* Oph! I decided to get myself three Haibane Renmei DVDs, a Fruits Basket DVD, and this TOTALLY AWESOME WATCH: [link] Look! The colors! The face! AH! (for those not knowing, red/black/white/orange is my favorite color combo ^^) SEIG ZEON! *pokes the little Zaku II" xDDD I got 2 other things but I must keep them a secret for now. X3

Oph! Contests! I must enter Areku's contest and Riikou's contest! *has great ideas for both* Squ33! xD

So.. tired... y'know that sickness I was trying to avoid? Well, it seems to've raped my throat. My voice does not exist right now. o.o Ask ~tigrin I sounded so horrible all day today(I guess it's yesterday now, huh? X3). By the end of the night I couldn't speak above a whisper, and even THAT took a painful effort.

Bua. So anyway. Yesterday. Got to school at 7:30AM(even though classes didn't start till 9:40 that day) to do some make-up homework. Well, lucky me, the warm cozy library was closed all morning. Yay. I got to sit outside on the benchs and FREEZE MY ASS OFF because it rained the night before and the air was veeeery chilly. I eventually sat off with my friends in one of the school hallways till the bell rang. Meh.

The rest of the day crept by but it was alright. I was very cozy in my Harry Potter scarf. xD It's amazing how warm one sliver of fabric keeps you! O.o; Um, then I did an art lesson in Anime Club. ~tigrin so totally ownz my ass. xDDD;; I luff you Tiggy! xD Then, instead of going home for a mere hour and coming back, I just stayed at school the whole time this evening. For our Mandala writing club, we were setting up a poetry reading session - featuring the dynamic Mr. Willy Simms. Awesome stuff. n.n

So once I finally got home(around 9PM), I had spent a grand total of 14 and a half hours at school... GAW. *just realizing this now* @.@; Someone shoot me now. I have to go back in the morning... nooo.... noooooooo.... *twitch*

And since my dad and his idiot friends were messing around on the computer all night(they didn't leave till midnight! RUDE!!! *was very close to outright teling them to go away*), I sit here, now, at 12:40AM, doing my homework and responding to all my accumulated DA messages and stuff. I took one look at my e-mail inbox and decided it wasn't worth it tonight. xD; Sorry anyone who's waiting for me to respond.

Ooough... I wouldn't go to school if I didn't have so many group projects to worry about. I HATE GROUP PROJECTS !@#!@&#... I always get stuck with most of the work. -_-;;

Whoo! I've been meaning to update this since, like, Saturday. X3

Anyway, first off, I would like to say a big THANK YOU to everyone who comments on my art and faves it and who devwatch me and stuff. I never seem to express my gratitude but I assure you I'm very honored and humbled your kindness! *bows, hides under a rock* xD Tankyuu! ^__^

Next, I'd like to announce that I'm making a personal Christmas wishlist for myself for all my friends. I'm not trying to be conceited!(ish oke if none of you do anything for me this holiday, I prolly dun deserve it! *hugs j00 all* xD) My intent with this is to give my friends an idea of what I would be happiest to see under my e-mail tree this holiday(art-wise). xD I'm also doing it as an example to all of my friends in return! Because I would LOVE to know what all of you want for the holidays. :3 Dun try and weasle out of it! I wish to give you gifts of luff and cheer, my chums! ^___^ There's at least 60+ people I want to give something too, so a push in the right direction of your preferences would be most appreciated, folks. xD And since I've got so much to do, it's never too early to start!! Maybe if I start now I'll actually have your gifts CGed in time this year. Bua. X3;;

This is my list - the links have not been properly set up yet!: [link]

So... much... to do... *dies!* I have so many birthday gifts and trades and kiribans and manga to do still! But luckily I got my report card last weekend and I have a steady 3.4 GPA. *proud! never manages to get above a 2.8 usually!* So my parents have sorta stopped nagging me about my homework recently. More computer time! EEE! xDD

I spent 2 1/2 hours answering e-mail this evening. o.o So many new WAW members! And a lot of people have been asking for WAW's intervention and advice lately. YAY! I'm THRILLED that WAW is getting more useful and that more people are joining! Absolutely thrilled! The problem is that it's hard to answer so many e-mails about other people's theft situations and stuff. x.x I don't mind the responsibility but it might take more energy than I thought. ^^;; No matter! It's for a good cause that people really believe in, so I'm happy to help those who ask in any way I can. :3

My mom has the flu and bronchitus(sp?) at the same time right now, and she's really contagious. ;____; I haven't caught her illness outright yet but I feel it creeping up on me. O.O Aspirin and water for me! Sleep! Rest! I MUST DO WORK NO! @.@;; My body's pretty good at fighting off flus and crap, so I should be oke.

Muu, I think that's it. OH! I finished HP IV! *cries* Cedriiiic... ;-; Sorrow! Corruption! Fear! I need HP V now. ^^

I had the coolest Harry Potter dream last night. xD

Oke oke, so for some reason, I was staying with Ron and his family fora week or so before we all headed for Hogwarts. We're all friends, wheee. xD; I think Harry and Hermione were there too. O.o I remember Fred and George for sure. Anyway, the dream sped up to where we were in some of the Ministry cars on our way to the train station. Oddly enough, we were passingthrough one of my old neighborhoods(which is nowhere near England xD). Halfway down one of the streets(traffic, eek!), Mr.s Weasly gets out of the car and goes over the sidewalk because there's something he needs to take care of. Dunno what. O.o

Still all crammed in one car, we finally arrived in the train terminal(which looked more like a huge underground airport parking lot). I must've gotten seperated from everyone, because before I knew it, I was where the train was but no one else was around me. Everything was modernized, so the Hogwarts Expressed looked more like a bullet train or the metro, and so did the entire terminal. All metal and concrete. o.o So I got on the train as it was about to leave.

Then the dream went to.. my cousin's(Katie) neighborhood? I guess the Hogwarts castle was replaced temporarily with 4 huge mansions, one for each House. It was getting late and all of us dumped our stuff in one of the big Gryffindor mansion's rooms. Then a thought came to me. "I'm so lucky to go to a high school that's, you know, magic." o.O I like when I actually think about stuff within my dreams. xD We all exited the room and went to explore.

Then the dream cut to me sneaking around the Hufflepuff mansion. I think I was looking for something and I was doing my best not to get caught. It was well after dark now, and all the Hufflepuffs were in their PJs. For some reason, they were all really mean-looking. Like, they had that 'don't mess with us' aire to 'um. xD; Buaa, I was going up and down all the floors, looking for something, trying to avoid people passing by until I accidentally walked onto a landing in a room with a big circle of slumber-party-ish Hufflepuffs on the ground. With sleeping bags and stuff. o.O; I got flat down on the ground so they couldn't see me above, and I thought "I'm SO dead..." Quietly, slowly, carefully, I crawled on my belly back to the door I came in through, all the while hoping the 'Puffs would notice me... and they didn't! I got through the door! Haha! Can't get me, you nasty jerks!

And ran to a vacant room down the dark hall. There was a window in the room, and I suddenly found what I was looking for! It was dark but I grabbed it, knowing it was... my Harry Potter IV book. o.o Along with a bunch of my art stuff and my iPod. (it's these things that I keep close to me at all times, for boredom is as sneaky and silent as death, and will strike when you least expect it!) I opened the window and noticed I was on the second floor. Below me was a mass of thick evergreen trees. I thought for a moment, then threw my belongings onto the treetops. Reluctantly, I jumped after them. There was no other way out of the mansion by then! When I jumped it was like a weird sort of slow-mo thing. I was totally outstretched as I fell, like I was trying to fly. I landed safely in the trees, then tumbled down to the ground.

Still trying not to be seen, I scurried to the mansion next door(thinking it was Gryffindor's) and accidentally walked into my cousin's house. O.o It was dark in there too, but I saw my aunt and uncle sitting in sofa chairs... in the dark. Eerie! They asked if I wanted to come in, to which I flatly said "No." And then I turned to leave, shutting the door behind me. But before I could shut the door all the way, a bratty lil' blonde girl in pig tails snuck through! I dunno who she was. But then she started following me, trying to boss me around and whining and stuff. -_o I was walking down the street(hopefully toward Gryffindor) trying to shake her off...

And that was it. I don't remember anymore. xD But what was cool about this dream is that... I dunno. It all felt so real. o.o I could feel myself running, crawling, and jumping, and I kept... ]]> ~nekou http://nekou.deviantart.com/journal/1359719/ http://nekou.deviantart.com/journal/1359719/ Tue, 04 Nov 2003 23:20:01 PST Keri's Journalish Thing:

Meh. I feel a bit detached from the request community these days. I f*cking hate school. It makes me so tired that by the time I get home, all I want to do is nothing. Deep down I wanna do something constructive. Like, just rattle off a bunch of finished requests all day(for at least one day!) without having my asshole dad to get in my way.

Why the f*ck won't they get me my own computer already? How many arguments do I have to get in to to make it clear to my parents that I am NOT comfortable nor compatible with the idea sharing one computer with my dad(which I hate to no end for all reasons under the sun). We always need the damn thing at the same time anyway. I KNOW we have the money and NO, I cannot wait until Christmas. I've been waiting for 4 gawdamn years. *twitch* I need my own computer. I NEED MY OWN COMPUTER. I promise you all, if I had my own, I would be much more active and better at getting out your requests. I could get so much art done... *imagines*

I don't understand why he's allowed to boss me around about this computer... It's not like HE bought this damn thing(thank you, momma). Gawdamn freeloading sonnuva dead witch...

I seem to be getting more and more acquianted with my LJ instead of this ol' thing. xD Of course I'll still update the DA journal, but perhaps not as often as before(not that it it was often in the first place ).

New staff artists at Ghost's Anime Kitties! Sandy and Shiin! And maybe a third? We haven't heard from him/her yet. n.n; Shout out to ~shiin! n.n

Changed the kiriban number. o.o

Halloween... it didn't suck but it wasn't fun either. ._. Consult my LJ. [link]

I feel like curling up in a ball and sleeping for the next three days. Sweet dreams.

Today's lowdown:
Lol, did no one get my 10K kiriban? O.o I guess not. xDDD Ah well! I hafta finish my other kiribans still anyway. >>;;

The fires around my house are getting worse. The air is SO bad. I'm freezing my ass off right now because the AC's on and it's not gonna come off anytime soon. *hates being cold* =_= There are apparently 8 huge wild/arson fires in all now, and at least 13 people have died so far. I'm getting really nervous about the reserve behind our house. One tiny spark... and the hills will explode...! O.O

OMG I laughed so hard today... at myself. X3 ~tigrin might've witnessed the scene, buaha. See, I went into the art room during passing to say hi to Tigrin like I usually do. I spend the whole passing period in there without much worry, because the class I have to get to never cares if I'm late(yay fitness!), therefore I always am. X3; Anyway, the bell was about to ring and she asked if I was gonna be late, and I said it didn't matter. Right as I went through the door, I kinda turned around(still walking) and shouted something jokingly like "Yeah, we seniors are so coo because we don't have to worry about being--" *WHACK!!!* xDDDD I turned forward just in time to slam into the poll diving the double doors out of the building. And this freshman was walking past and heard/saw the whole thing. He doubled up and was laughing really hard, and so was I. xDDD;; *cough* I'm still a cool senior, no? Buaha. xD;; I always thought it was funny when an uppercassman pulled a freshman stunt. (ex. going to the wrong lunch, going to the wrong room, walking into the polls on campus, etc.)

*rubs the bump on her head* I'm proud to be a klutz.

Today's lowdown:
Buaa, I'm so sleepy today. Dunno why. I think it's because I was up at 7AM yesterday(for Bakura's sake! xD) until 2:30AM this morning. ^^; I really really hate sleeping. I love dreaming, hate sleeping. Go figure. =_=;;

Hnn, today hasn't been very eventful. ~ piper17 and I live in the same general area of SoCal, so both our skies were full of smoke and ash from the 6 big wild/arson fires burning around the area. The fire in San Bernadino ate 200+ homes! O.O I feel bad for those folks but I worry for myself too, because barely 2 years ago there was a huge wildfire only 2 miles from house(I got great pictures tho'!). The nature reserve behind my house is nothing but a bunch of hills full of dry grass too. One little spark and it'll be a friggin' inferno. And to top it all off, the Santa Ana winds have been blowing very hard off and on all day today and yesterday. It's a damn good thing all my valuable crap is on the floor of my room - all I gotta do is dump it in a big pile and heave it in the car if I need to. xD But I doubt it'll get that extreme.

Hnn. So last night after my folks and I came back from dinner, I sat down and decided to finally draw out some ideas I've been toting around in my brain for a while. The first was a picture of Arudemous and Aki in pretty princess dresses. OMG yes Renee, they are SO CUTE! xDDDD I feel bad for Aru. He has this horrible scowl on his face. X3 I can't help but giggle everytime I look at that picture though! And Aki just seems a little uncomfortable... I think Aru wants to kill him. X3

The second picture I drew was of(what was supposed to be) a bishouneny Anubis sitting on a throne-thing examining the Feather of Truth idley between his fingers. He looks so bored. X3 S'alright. If i make his eye stand out more I think he'll be prettier. :3 I gotta figure out how that head dress thing falls on his head! It'll be for Renee because me and her were yakking about egyptian mythology for a while yesterday and that's when I got the idea in my head. Ancient Egypt friggin' rules. Horus = YUMMEH! xDDD

I started drawing a picture of SE(Mir's original) but I kinda forgot what he looked like and I wasn't gonna go retrieve his info page off the compy at 2AM. I could've but I was lazy. X3 I shall finish it today as soon as I finish my lil' essay and this econ project thingy. I hafta finish a different gifty for Mir because she colored some of my creatures on CC for me! Tankyuuuu! n.n

I'm going to be redoing all the Mercerian character bio pages because they all SORELY need to be revised. xD I really like the new ref picture of Niko I did. n.n *pets Niko* Mir decided that he should be my official bish from now on, since I'm not really going nuts for any of the canon bishies out there these days. Not even Legato makes me go drooly and numb anymore. =/ He's still psychotically sexy but I don't watch Trigun enough for me to see him on TV regularly like before. Ah well.

Niko = my bish because I love him very very much. ^_____^ And now that I think about it, m'ish gonna go ahead and add Horus as my bish too. Yay for ancient falcon-headed gods of upper and lower Egypt! xD M'ish has a human design for him in mind. Buaha. >3

Oh yeah, that stupid essay. It's for mythology. I hafta compare(not contrast!) two creationism stories from two different cultures. I chose Greek and Norse. I luff Norse mythology. *pets Balder* n.n So yeah, this is mainly a freshman class, so it's a measly 5 paragraph essay that I'm already half done with after 20 minutes. o.o I like to write a lot... as I'm sure you've noticed. Gaw, this wasn't supposed to be a long entry... xDDD

Yesterday me and Mir nabbed a bit of art theft from one of our fellow request artists. This was purposeful theft too, and the thief(who shall remain nameless) lied to try... ]]> ~nekou http://nekou.deviantart.com/journal/1325814/ http://nekou.deviantart.com/journal/1325814/ Sun, 26 Oct 2003 15:57:58 PST Keri's Journalish Thing:

Oh yeah, that stupid essay. It's for mythology. I hafta compare(not contrast!) two creationism stories from two different cultures. I chose Greek and Norse. I luff Norse mythology. *pets Balder* n.n So yeah, this is mainly a freshman class, so it's a measly 5 paragraph essay that I'm already half done with after 20 minutes. o.o I like to write a lot... as I'm sure you've noticed. Gaw, this wasn't supposed to be a long entry... xDDD

Yesterday me and Mir nabbed a bit of art theft from one of our fellow request artists. This was purposeful theft too, and the thief(who shall remain nameless) lied to try... ]]> ~nekou http://nekou.deviantart.com/journal/1307793/ http://nekou.deviantart.com/journal/1307793/ Wed, 22 Oct 2003 01:05:22 PDT Keri's Journalish Thing:

I'm in a good mood tonight. ^_^ I can't remember if I had any homework or reports due but that's oke. xD;;; I joined 3 new clubs(whee!) and m'ish added Wolff to the friends list.

I went with my mom to do a bunch of errands today. I got a buncha art supplies Michaels, a leash from PetCo for my collar, and a big pluffy YGO blanket from Target. xD

You were right, Mir! They had YGO bedsheets and stuff there! But they were all too small for my bed so I couldn't get any(*has a queen*). X3 So I had to choose between the Yami pillow and the Yami blanket. Me loves blankets. xD

Osh, for those who don't know yet, there's manga on RFF now. o.o It's really crappy because I did it all in 2 days but it's there! xD The comic section actually has something in it, oo! O.o;;

I'm soooo hungry... burgers... mmm... I wanna read some HPIV.

Osh! Big thank you again to Mir for helping me color a request this weekend! *much huggles!*

Today's lowdown:
I'm tired and I don't want to be. x.x I'm like, tired of being tired. I have no time to do anything I wanna do these days and it's weighing me down. There's just so much unneccessary junk to trudge through in my daily life, between school and driving and drawing and a whole mess of other things. I want to sleep but I don't want to be tired... if that makes sense.

I have two escapes from this everyday world: One is daydreaming, and the other is outright sleep. Every other night or so recently, I've had very vivid dreams. The kind of dreams where you begin to wake up still thinking you're in a different place or time or on a different schedule. I wake up and I forget where I am, and that is bliss to me.

The more blurred the line between reality and dreams becomes for me, the happier I am. It may sound silly, it may sound insane, but if I were ever given the choice to live forever in my dreamworlds, I would take it. Or would I not? If I were to leave reality, there would be no one left to dream those dreams of mine, nor would there be anyone to share those dreams with everyone else.

Dreams make the world livable. Maybe that's why we're not allowed to crossover into them completely.

I woke up from my nap today to discover I was home alone! Whee! (dun worry, I know where my folks are, I just forgot they would be gone this evening xD) So m'ish gonna go watch some YGO fansubs on the big screen. X3 Eee, I left off on the episode where Yami duels Bakura for the first time! OMG, Ryou's original voice is so CUTE! *-* Like and innocent little girly boy! Very fitting indeed. xD His yami though sounds like a little girly boy with a bad attitude. xD Still very fitting, though I think I'm too used to the demonic British accent version of Bakura on TV. Being a sucker for British and Australian accents, I'm very torn between which version of my favorite psychopath I like most. Decisions, decisions. *dies* xDDDD;

YES, I have no homework tonight. O.O I prolly have to study for something but I'll do that tomorrow. xD;;; Oh yeah! It's spirit dress(school colors) tomorrow because it's our school's homecoming rally. Whee! I am SO wearing my YGO shirt. n.n It's blue! It's legal! Byahahaha! BUT since I have no homework tonight, I promise after I finish that one episode I wanna watch, I'll work on something off one of my many to-do lists. *points down the page* X.x;;;

Everyone keeps telling me I should be Harry Potter for halloween and I dunno why! O.o;; All I've got is the scarf and I sure as hell dun look anything like HP. I'm not dying my hair black and the last time I wore a black cape/coat on halloween, I almost got run down by a car on the street. xD;;; Stupid drunk idiot person. O.o;;; *cough* BUT! M'ish gonna be a doggy for halloween instead. Hell, I've been a kitty for 2 years straight, why not try something new? :3 The costume will be worn at Anime Expo 04 too. I made the white ears and one of the paws/gloves yesterday. And NO I don't look like Inuyasha. X3 I have floppy Chava-esque ears. :3 I dunno, I like those best. xD I'm still not quite sure on how to make the tail or what to wear with my canine accessories. Meh, I'll figure it out.

Time is fading fast! I must go watch stuff! Whee! xDDDD

Other Happenings
Anime Club lives! Yes indeedy! Yay! It's been all sorted out and we're having or first meeting next wednesday! M'ish so happy. n.n *purrs* xD;; I need to get a lot of stuff ready for it though. ^^

WOW. I passed my economics test by a whopping 99%. O.O THIS, my friends, is evidence that miracles DO happen! xDDD;;; Not only had I barely studied for this test, but I had no idea what I was talking about on the free responses. Plus I received a D+ on my last test and my overall grade was looking a bit shabby. I hate economic politics! x.X; But I passed! Somehow... *still confused* O.o;;;;;

*whispers* Right now I'm at my grandparents house. I'm spending the night but everyone else has already fallen asleep except me, and it's not even midnight. =_='

I'm closed up in the computer room with my younger cousin, Michael(15 yrs). I'm trying to play soft music on this Kazaa system thingy in order to lull him to sleep. He's all curled up in a little ball on the ground... I think he's snoring. xD; I'm playing "Fake Wings" from the .hack OST now. Such a sweet and mysterious song... I heard it in person at the Anime Expo during summer. I forget the lady that sings it, but she was performing there. Erm, all I remember is that she sounds better on the CD. *cough* xD;;

Sweet morning light indeed.

I finished HPIII finally. I love Remus. Why can't all my teachers be as cool as him? And Sirius is teh awesome. *cough* I couldn't control my natural fangirl instincts so I drew a cute huggy Padfoot 'n' Moony shounen ai fanart. It's so... bad. xD; Oh well. I need HPIV. Now. I will buy it tomorrow at the mall...! *determined* xD

Other news:
Oi, oi, I'm at my grandparents because we were 'celebrating the life' of my step great grandmother. She died last month I think. Anyway, I didn't know her all that well so I didn't really get teary-eyed like the adults when they were reading spiritual poems and stuff they wrote for the occasion. She was a nice lady and that's all I know. ^_^

I'm spending the night because I want to go to the mall with my older cousin tomorrow. Whee, time to blow away the last of my birthday cash. xD OMFG they better have YGO vol.2 and Gravitation vol.2 tomorrow. Shuichi-chaaaan! ;-;

*dances for no longer has a huge ass english essay hovering over her head* xDDD I think that was part of my mood problem yesterday, besides the whole not getting paid thing. -_O But yeah, m'ish done with Dorian Gray in class! I still have to finish/ink/scan that DG fanart from last month. x.x;

To all my friends who comforted me on my last journal entry! I owe you many hugs! ! ^_^
Yup, I feel MUCH better today. n.n That whole logo thing can just kiss my ass. e.e; I'm not sure if I would want to be paid for something that had no soul in it anyway.

Ugh, this morning really sucked though. x.x; I had been up till a ripe 3AM finishing off my essay(which I'll prolly fail, but hey) when I suddenly discovered that my computer's printer function did not work. *twitch* Yet another thing to add to my stressed and overworked brain. So I had to send it all through e-mail to print it at school. Oke fine. I went to bed for a good 3 hours.

Unfortunately, I woke up late as a result. x.x; My school starts at 7:35AM but I had a shitload of math homework to still finish, so I was intent on getting there at 7AM. I got there 15 minutes late. --; And of course, I had math first period of the day AND we were having a quiz. Not only did I never finish my homework, but i also completely failed the quiz. Wheee. xDDD

Mythology class was oke except I had to hurry up and finish my homework for it in math. x.x;

Econ was boring as hell, but we got to mess around on the computers for a bit.

At lunchtime I finally hurried to proofread and print out my essay. I think I got a bunch of the MLA wrong... which is fantastic, since my english teacher is a friggin' MLA nazi. x.x; Blah. I had 2 minutes to eat my lunch and then go to fitness class.

Fitness sucked today especially because our substitute teacher/coach made us walk around the track for a whole 55 minutes in the hot sun. By the time we got to change, I was all sweaty and junk. *dies* -_-; Luckilly the guy let me and my friend visit the vending machines(it was second lunch during our fitness period) and I got this really good fruit bar ice cream thing. Mmm, coconut. xD

By the time I hit english class, I was dead tired but feeling a little better because of that ice cream... 'cept I was thirsty as hell now. x.x; English was nice today actually. We got to dance around the class(purely for educational purposes *cough*) and the teacher blew little 'bubbles of inspiration' at us. I love bubbles. *paws them in the air* xDDD And I recited this really long satement thing by memory in front of the class, so I got Smarties candy for it. Yay, pure sugar! xDDD Made the final touches to a bunch of little ink sketches and stuff too.

Art class was my last class. All I did was sit and ink some drawings and sneak goldfish crackers whenever the teacher wasn't looking. X3 The table next to me and my guy friends is full of girly-girl horse lover people. o.o I don't mind(I luff horsies mucho!), 'cept that ALL they paint are horses. No seriously, EVERY painting has a horse in it and their fur is always brown. Not that this is wrong I guess, but it's a little repetitive... and their squealy girliness is annoying. xDD So all day I was suggesting that my guy friend add a dead/decapitated/bloody/suicidal horse carcus to his painting(this is the guy with the battlefield of dead cows xD). The girls next to us were not pleased. Buaha. Dead horse. I'm mean. xDD

So my day got much better as school came to an end. I think that ice cream had a lot to do with it. Ice cream cures all. xD Ugh, the entire day went by so slowy but... as long as it's finally over, I no longer care. xD

Other news:
As soon as I got home today I took a nap. And the... ]]> ~nekou http://nekou.deviantart.com/journal/1221308/ http://nekou.deviantart.com/journal/1221308/ Tue, 30 Sep 2003 16:57:43 PDT
However, as I said, I've been trying to send the file to him. Numerous times, and in numerous formats. The first few times the message was bounced back because the file was too big for his mailbox, etc. I didn't know how to reformat it properly. When I first got the inquirey to send the .PSD and to name my price, my dad(who's supposedly an expert in the graphic design field), told me to wait and send him nothing for a few days. I told him they needed it soon but he just walked away. A couple days later I finally got him to help me put it in the correct format, and he suggested I get 300$ for all my services, including the first logo and the second freehanded logo I redid. Finally the system accepted the mail this time, and for the last few days I've been waiting. Though his friend would tweak it, I was still to be paid for my share of the work.

Today, I opened my mailbox and discovered a new message... and the message read that the file came too late... and the logo was needed ASAP and... that a new artist was hired to redo the logo entirely. I will not be paid.

...I hate my father. That logo... if you read my journal a couple weeks ago you'd know how much it nearly killed me to do that logo. I did everything the guy asked me to do. It brought me to tears several times in frustration... you guys know how much it pained my soul to create art that meant nothing. Soulless art. But still I did it and I finished it to the best of my abilities... and now, because I was made to wait... I was too late... I will get nothing in return for all I had to go through... Nothing.

I don't know whether to cry or try and forget it. I want to do both but can't. It's such an awkward feeling and it's all trying to lodge into my throat. This is just one more occasion where my father's brought me down, kept me from reaching a goal that I worked hard for. Why was I supposed to wait? Why? Fuck. He's not even here right now for me to scream at... But... it' gotten to the point in my life where I feel nothing for my father. Nothing at all. A stranger living in my house that tries to order me around... that's all he is. I've grown to hate him so much that I can't even feel it anymore. I just want him to go away and never come back. I don't care if he moves away or if he dies or whatever... I just want him to never come back. If I were a truly deeply selfish person, I would wish for the plane carrying him back home to burn up in the sky or nosedive to the ground.

I swear to God this is the last time I let him screw me over... I swear it. Gawdammit I swear it! ]]> ~nekou http://nekou.deviantart.com/journal/1208359/ http://nekou.deviantart.com/journal/1208359/ Sat, 27 Sep 2003 02:21:50 PDT Keri's Journalish Thing:

Today's lowdown:
No not _that_ way! *slams Arash's head into a desk* xD Um, yes, as the title suggests, I am very tired at the moment. The only reason I'm awake is because I had a cup of cappucino after dinner tonight, sooo... my eyes sting. xD Tonight my folks and I went to go see The Producers musical by Mel Brooks in Hollywood. I had lotsa fun. Good stuff, that Mel Brooks. xD Before that we had a niec steak dinner at a little hole-in-the-wall steakhouse a block away from the Pantages Theater(where we saw Producers). Good stuff, that food place. xD Before that though, the car ride up to Hollywood sucked. Nothing but traffic alllllll the way in both directions. On top of it all, my folks were arguing because we were gonna be an hour and a half late for our dinner reservations. Good stuff, that 405 freeway. xD

Dead cows... o.O The guy next to me in my painting class is a WWII freak. All of his paintings from last year and this year have all been related to war in someway. This time his painting is that of a battlefield scene at Normandy, with the Allies storming a farmhouse and shelling it to pieces with mortars. Exciting. However, in his current particular painting, there are also 3 dead shrapnel-riddled cows with loads of extra blood on all sides. I thought it was funny(we now dub the poor guy 'dead cow man'), but a vegetarian who was in my class caught sight of the picture and made a fuss about it(nothing serious, just "eww" and " aw how sad!" and stuff). Annoyed, finally the guy told her his painting was a tribute to all the cows that died in WWII, and I couldn't help but snort in reply "Yeah, his tribute is so moo-ving." xDDD About 3 people(including the teacher, myself, and the guy) laughed at the one. Everyone else scowled and the vegetarian girl didn't get it for a while. I love painting class. Ph34r my mad l33t pun skillz. xD

Speaking of painting, I had to take my unfinished picture of Aru boi home today so I can work on him over the weekend. So mad complicated... uh. I hate my painting style. It's always so needlessly complicated! With all those teeny little strokes..*dies* But I like his body so far. I wanna do his face but I need to finish his hair first. His hair be spikaaaay. xD

Ahh! I know I see everyone's deviantions and journals in my message box, but I don't think I'll have time or memory to respond to them all. And by memory, I mean my Internet Explorer. I have messages back from Wednesday that I haven't been able to clear because I haven't even been able to get thorugh them! My computer's frozen up on DA 4 times in a row and it's really pissing me off. *dies* @.@; I want a PC... a PC = working computer, in my eyes. *loves the new high tech flatscreen fine resolution PCs at school* xD;;

So yeah, if I don't respond to your journals or artwork for a while, it's not because I can't see it or because I'm lazy - it's because I don't wanna have to restart every ten minutes. @.@; Myu, sorries. =/

Oh yeah, FantasyStarr and Muzai have officially quit Ghost's kitty staff. Sorry to see 'um go. =/ But FS will be assisting Kaze on her video game kitty site because their styles are similar. Yay. ^^

Other news:
I've had WAY too much candy today. And freetime. I didn't eat breakfast today for some odd reason... So before school I bought one of those big round suckerpop things(strawberry, yeah!). We watched a movie in our first period because the teacher didn't feel like teaching(no really, that's exactly what she said xD), then I had painting(moo!), then I had religion(easy do-nothing class), then algebra where we watched another movie and he passed out a ton of candy to us for some reason(mmm Reeses(RIIS! xD)), then lunch where they passed out candy to everyone to help support the football game tonight, then I had mythology where we still did nothing, and finally Econ where I faded in-and-out of sleep all period(but hey, I accidentally did my homework a day early for that class so I had nothing to worry about xDDD;;.

That's about it. So tired...... ]]> ~nekou http://nekou.deviantart.com/journal/1192104/ http://nekou.deviantart.com/journal/1192104/ Mon, 22 Sep 2003 16:27:33 PDT Keri's Journalish Thing:

I was literally skipping and dancing through the halls after I found it. xD It was indeed at school! Apparently, um, I left it in my fourth period class. Just outright forgot about it... left it on the table at my seat. O.o; Not only did I leave my orange notebook and black folder, but I also left a multitude of pens I was using to doodle with. *feels stupid* xD I'm glad it was a freshman class that came in after our class left on friday. *nod* Freshman are nice. n.n

OMG, there's this ADORABLE little freshman in my mythology class named Alex. He LOVES Yu-Gi-Oh! Eee! I dragged him to my locker afterschool and made him borrow my YGO manga. xD *huggles him* So cute! n.n

Ugh, gawdammit. -_- I'm at my cousin's house right now because I needed to apply for a job on their computer(the application site doesn't show up on my good for nothing Mac e.e). Um, as I type, my spoiled little cousin Ryan is SCREAMING like a baby, " Mooommm!!! MOM!" because my other older cousin is trying to keep something away from him. IT'S SO FUGGING ANNOYING. He's, what, 9 years old? And he still cries and complains to his mom ALL THE TIME. I swear, I will never NEVER be a stay-home mom who lets my kids get whatever they want because they scream for it and because I'm about to have a nervous breakdown every other day. e.e; I wanna say I feel sorry for my aunt(and I do), but.. well. There's a reason why that kid is the way he is, and why my other two cousins are a bit spoiled and whiney too. *shrug* That's what I say, at least...

Ah, yet another reason not to breed. *hates little kids* xDDD

Um... oh yeah! For my mythology homework due today, I stayed up till 3AM this morning drawing, inking, and copic coloring a neato picture of Dem! He's supposed to be Balder from this Norse myth we read on Friday... or something. *shrug* xD His face turned out sooooo orange. =_____________= I like everything else on him though, I guess. I wish my ultramarine pen didn't decide to overflow while I was drawing stripes. x.x; *dies*

Anyway, my caffiene high is.. going down... and down... I'm gonna go find a nice spot on the carpet and take a nap.


Other news:
*flicks her dog collar* I wore it to school today! xD I barked at the substitute teacher in my art class when he was saying roll. X3
Teacher: *calling names* "Kelli?"
Me: "RARF! ^___^"
Teacher: "..................... Uh, Becky? Christina?"

I laughed. Everyone else didn't mind. xDDDD It's weird. I hate dogs but I like dog collars. Good thing the deans don't seem to mind. *shrugs, jingles her ID tag* X3

Oph! Thanks for 8000+ hits, folks! n.n

Today's lowdown:
Whee, Knotts was fun! I forget what we did exactly(I was asleep for 14 hours afterwards!) but I know it was fun! COASTERS! xDDD *huggles Tiggy* Myu! n.n

Dude, my body got trashed yesterday, and yet it didn't complain and I'm not soar today. O.o Not only did the coasters throw me everywhere, but when I was behind a bunch of people in this migrating mass herd thing, and I saw something interesting in a store off to the side. I jumped to the other side of the street and the way looked clear to me, buut... POW!! Some kid slams right into me at full speed and tumbles to the ground. I just stood there. " Oww. @.@;" And the girl was like "OMG I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! ... Hey, I know you!" Earlier that day in a bakery, she was standing in front of me in line and the tag on her shirt was poking out, so I slipped it back, much to her surpise. o.O; Heh, small world? xDD;; I dunno. I was surpised to be the one standing. *is frail and weak?* X3 It hurt for a little bit but then it went away.

I DDRed arcade style for the first time after getting my DDR pad last year. My friend Tisha totally whipped me. xD Then me and Tigrin tried it out and neither of us could pass. xDD And it was only 3rd Mix too! But on the upside, I finally got to do Butterfly. n.n "Ai yai yai, I'm your little butterfly! Green, black, and blue make the colors in the sky!"

Before we left, we played this carnival game where you had to shoot a street of water at this spinning target thing. I won. xDD It was weird. The blasters were numbered 1-15, and instead of going to one of my patron numbers(3-9-15, as in "subject #03915!" xD), I was compelled, no COMPELLED, to go to 14. I hate that number!! Hate it! But it drew me to it. So I played and, with a psychotic 'you're MINE!' glint in my eye and a wry smile rivaling Bakura's, I blasted that stupid target to hell and back. And won! xD It was this long plushie blue snake thing. We named him Herbert. *snuggles* xD I like shooting games yet I hate guns... *confuses herself* O.o

We left around 5:30 and I finally got home around 6:45 or so after droppoing off my friends. From there, I spent about a half hour on the copmuter then fell in and out of sleep for a few hours in my room. Then I finally went to bed at midnight. I'm so disappointed in myself!! I NEVER go to bed before 1AM ever! My record is tarnished. Bah. *kicks her weak self yesterday* @.@

My dreams last night were long and continuous. I think there were 3 different ones but they all had some relation to each other. I cna't remember them as well, but they were all very realistic-feeling and stuff... like I was actually there. There seemed to be a whole beach/island theme to them. O.o I'll decipher them sometime.

On the bright side, I thought of a really cute Aru/Dem doujinshi idea when I woke up this morning. xD *wants to draw it but caaaaan't because she has no time and because Merceria and everyone else has been patient long enough! Ahh!!* @.@

I went with my mom today to Borders and picked up Harry Potter III, Full Metal Panic!, and the FLCL manga. *eats her birthday money* xD Then we went to PetCo. and I bought a new collar and tag. Yay! xD It's a big tan leather dog collar with a big silver buckle, and a big silver round tag that says " NEKOU." xD I bought another collar when I was at Knotts but the tan one was what I really wanted. xD The Knotts one is neat though! It's just red and it has a bunch of little silver studs on it. Reeeed. xD

Um... I wanna draw... but I hafta read a couple of books or something. -_o;
...*cracks open a manga instead* xDD


Other news:
I want my notebook... ;-;

OMG... awesome artness + funneh!! Ish a comic my friend found! Renee... *dies* xDD Here! Read! It's got a lot of yuri/shoujo ai themes in it though. ^^ [link]

W00t! Today was the end of spirit week at school. The classes all had to wear their signature colors: freshman=yellow, sophomores=green, juniors=red, seniors=blue. Wore my digi-angel shirt today because I'm lame. xD OMG I still haven't e-mailed that person back who sent it to me! *dies, feels bad* X.x; Anyway, the rally was pretty good. A LOT better than last year's and the year before. I think it was a little funner because: a) That annoying preppy spirit girl wasn't MCing, b) Toby and Julian were MCing(they're spazzes xD), c) There was a huge giant obstacle course slide thingy in the middle of the gym, d) Ace(our big school security guard) got to pelt the underclassmen with tennis balls, and e) being a senior during a rally just rules... because they always win... ALWAYS... *cough*we cheat*cough* xDDDDD

Today's lowdown:
AHH! I'm going to Knotts Berry Farm with a buncha people tomorrow. Yay! xD It's supposed to be for my birthday but, like, yeah, I just want an excuse to go run around and spazz out with my friends in public. xD And ride some rollercoasters! Whee! *coaster junkie* xD We're all meeting a giant chicken statue right when the park opens. O.o

Myaaa, I'm really worried! Today I had my orange notebook with all the quotes and junk scrolled across it in different colors with that chibi Bakura oekaki I did taped to it, and... and! It's gone! Gone!! I don't know where it went or when or where I might've left it! I didn't noice it was missing until I got home. It had the original Vetrio picture(the one I recently submitted) in it... ;-; And a bunch of other pictures in it too! Plus poetry and some religion notes that I need! ARGH! *cries* My black folder is gone too! It had my new picture of Juno in there! Finally and fully designed! I spent 2 hours on that ink drawing! ;-; And ish gone... along with the econ and english homework that was with it.

I wouldn't mind as much if it was just an ordinary notebook with some random notes in it, but that orange notebook is very special to me! It's covered across in lines of random quotes that I've been collecting ever since the first day of school. Not to mention I have NO idea how many other drawings and designs are in it besides Vetrio. It kind of freaks me out - the idea that someone else might have my Vetrio in their clutches. I mean, what would they do with it? Would they keep it or throw it away? Maybe give it away? Maybe keep it and say they did it?! Noo!! The people at my school are hollow and have no appreciation for other people's stuff! They would do anything to impress their friends even slightly(I know this to be fact, 4 years in hell will do this to you!!)! I mean, none of the drawings in there are very good, but they all mean something to me! M'ish just... worried... It's like someone abducted my baby when I wasn't looking. ;-; I really hope I find it on monday...

Sigh.

Well, that was uplifting @.@ Gomen. I should be a little more excited to go hang out with my friends tomorrow(Tigrin's coming, yay!). I've just been so tired ever since I got home. I took a nap already(for like, 4 hours) but I still feel heavy and dull. I could fall asleep right now if I just put my head down.

AHH! I forgot! The second new episode of YGO! I'm gonna miss it tomorrow 'cuz I'll be at Knotts. x.x; Siiigh... Well! Someone please tell me what generally went on in it in case I can't figure it out for myself by the previews. Baku', Baku'!!!!! xD Oh yeah! Speaking of YGO, I bought a couple of fansubbed DVD boxsets off eBay with my birthday money. Come to me, YGO subbies! Buahahaha!! Thanks Miracle for helping me find them! ^__^

xDDD Random: Thanks Arash for giving me a One Piece manga! I'll get something good for your birthday in return. *cough*Video Girl Ai*cough* xDDDDDD No, I don't think they'd let me walk out of the store with something like La Blue Girl. X3; Ah hell, I'll buy him some Kazan. Kazan = GOOD. X3

Blah, I said I'd shower, like, and hour ago... so I think I'll go scrubby up for tomorrow finally. Byeness. xD

Thanks everyone for your gifts and greetings! I had a wonderful birthday indeed! *huggles y'all* ^____^

Myaa, I finally got my HP scarf. xD Gryffindor, babeh! *snuggles it* Ish so soft. X3 I got a spiffy vintage-esque HP watch to go with it too! *wears it proudly* xD; Oph, I got a lot of artness from howtodrawmanga. com and stuff. Got that infamous 'ph34r t3h cute ones' t-shirt from Megatokyo too. It's SO big on me. X3 And it's a small! O.o; Ah well, just another PJ shirt for meh. xD;; I got a Ninja Turtle shirt too! Randomly! o.O;; It's really big too but hey, NT rocks. xD My favorite show when I was a little kid. ^^ Meh, got some money and.. Ehhh... that's about it.
EXCEPT! For what's probably one of my favorite gifts! From my 9 year old cousin! o.O;

My aunts says she and him were strolling through the grocery store one day and Ryan(that's his name) sees this really cool thingy that he wanted to buy for me, so they did. Low and behold! It's a super sparkly Yu-Gi-Oh! cereal box! I was like "OMFG COOL! xDDD!" And it IS cool! :3 Oph, I'm gonna find a way to nail it to my wall or something. xD The cereal shapes are just little triangles but the box is soooo pretty! EVERYTHING is sparkly and metallic-colored! EE! xDDD

Osh osh, the Spaghetti Factory had that one elusive one-night-only special that I absolutely LOVE last night! Chicken Penne! YESH! xDD The last time I was there and they had that special was 2 years ago. o.o So I was mucho happy 'bout that. xD *scarfed it up* X3

OMG, on our way home(it was around 10:30) the toll road to my house was randomly blocked of with cones and there was no sign warning us, so we spent an hour driving through all these areas we never knew existed. In other words, we were SO lost. xD;;; My mom was getting really pissed. X3 Eventually we found a familiar freeway but man, that sucked. xD It was kinda fun for me because I got to go on a lil' adventure and see places I've never seen before - like a neat lil' detour. My mom was stressing over how there wasn't any gas left in the tank and stuff. dun worry, we made it to a gas station just in time. I got home to open my presents around 11:45, woo. Everyone was too tired too care by then, including me. *dies* xD;; But we all still had a nice time overall. ^__^

Welp, I had a very happy b-day indeed, yuff! n.n Thanks again everyone! Much luff to j00! xDDD

Other news:
Hehe! I got to wear my kitty ears today for 'Crazy Hat and Hair Day" for spirit week. I lent Tigrin my other set of tiger ears and I wore my usual red ones. T'was fun! xD Oph, I found 3 bucks on the ground in the bathroom at school. The bills were just there... so I took 'em! And bought some cookies afterschool. ^^;;; Yeah yeah, finder's keepers. Besides, I was hungry! X3; I am now my school's official manga supply line. O.o; I've lent out, like, 4 different mangas today, then relent them out to other people when the first people were done and returned 'em. xD; *must hoard manga in her locker now* X3; Yes! Spread the anime/manganess! Buahahaha! I shall infect teh school! xD Dammit I wish we could find a patron for the anime club soon. *dies* x.x;;

SD GUNDAM! I am in LOVE with that little Zero gundam d00d! He's SOOOO cute! I just wanna hug him to itty bitty pieces!! xDDD I felt bad for him today - Tallgeese's Leo d00ds were making fun of him. ;-; The SD Tallgeese is so funny. xD *watches him waddle around admiring himself in the mirror, singing his own evil praises* LMAO. xDDD!!! And all his little soldiers are dressed like little Leo d00ds! With FANNY-PACKS!! xDD Ah man, much love for the SDs, much love! For all you Gundam fans out there who haven't seen this show yet, you must! xD

Muu. Thanks for your support, guys. I feel much better today than I did yesterday. ^^ *huggles everyone* ^_^

I still hafta finish that logo though. Blah. I'm gonna print it out sometime and just stab it a bunch of times with a random sharp object. o.o Sacrifice the nothing! Kill, kill! xD

I liked wearing my little plastic-yet-still-metalish-looking Cross Punisher on my collar today. That alone made me forget that idiot logo. X3 CP makes me very happy indeed! xD But Wolfwood died yesterday night on Trigun. *sniffle* x.x; Ish okies! I remembered him with mah collar! xD; AHH! But Legato dies tonight!! Nuu, not Legato!!! Damn you, Vash!! *always cries when that happens* ;-;

Myaa. I have SO much homework to do tonight and it's... 9:43 right now. And I haven't started on a single pinch of it... w00t! xD; I can't do work I'm not motivated to do. *kills logo* o.o And NO, the idea of college does NOT motivate me when it comes to schoolwork! -____- A 'Grade' is the most illogical measuring system ever conceived. You can't measure someone's intelligence with a simple letter! There are 7 different levels of intelligence, my friends! Just because you fail everything in school does not at all mean you're stupid! Meh... mini rant. O.o; My school doesn't know what motivation is... -_-

OMG we have a 'School Spirit' club on campus called the Mighty Eagles or something retarded like that. Sorry, but if I happen upon someone with sooo much school spirit that they're willing to join a club for it, then... I can't let them get away with that kind of optimism in front of me, I'm sorry. xD; People with that kinda spirit for our hellhole school really really really need to switch their rose-colored glasses. X3

Today was the second day in a row that I was able to finish jogging a lap around the track before everyone else in my class without stopping. O.o It really isn't much, but considering the fact that I spent the entire summer on my ass... well, I take this as a good sign. X3 Maybe I'm healthier than I think? *cough hack die* xD

OMFG, SD GUNDAM YES!! xDDDD That show is so mindlessly entertianing. X3 The little Zero gundam! Eee! He's so adorable! *huggles 'im* ^___^ It's lame yet really funny at the same time... or maybe it's funny because it's lame? I dunno, I watch it anyway. xD; ZAKO, ZAKO!!


Other news:
Mandala was fun today. ^^ I think I scared some of the freshman but hey, that's my job as a senior. xD;; Muu, I think everyone had fun! :3 But Trotter will definitely now not be doing the Anime Club. Sigh. Well, he said he'd ask around the rest of the faculty to see if anyone else would be interested. Hope, hope. ^_^ I'm going to fail my basic algebra quiz tomorrow, wheee!! Because yes, I'm really THAT clueless when it comes to math. xD; I blame it on my artsyness - my right brain is taking over my left! The left is just a storage unit now!! *shoves boxes of random manga ideas to the back of her head* X3 Saw Yami bakura again today on TV. Instant happiness... I can't wait for this Saturday morning... xD Got all giddy while trying to explain why I like psycho characters to some of the folk in Mandala. O.o; Um, I think I went overboard with the "it's fun when they try to kill people!!" factor... yeah... I'm sure they think I'm a bloodlusting psycho killer lover now. X3 Mentally insane bishounen are the best, I can't help it! They don't even need to be killers! *dies* xD;;;;

M00gle! O.o

Gawdammit. Gaw fugging dammit. That guy, that guy I was supposed to do the logo for. It feels like he's begging me to finish that gawdamn logo. And you know what? I don't fugging want to. I hate this stupid project, I HATE it. I wanna DESIGN a logo, not using the gawdamn text function on Photoshop and make some spiffy background. He keeps asking me to do this effect on it and y'know what? I CAN'T DO IT. It's so frustrating, no matter how many different things I do to it, I can't make it look right. My parents keep telling me it looks fine but gawdammit, IT DOESN'T. I'm so fugging unhappy with it and all I want to do is quit. Again.

My gaw. I wanna, like cry. I AM crying but I won't admit it to myself. Im' so stressed out because of this stupid logo. The guy needs it ASAP and for some reason he won't go find a gawdamn professional. He wants ME to do it. I told him I didn't wanna do it, I didn't have time, but today I do and now he wants me to finish it. I don't wanna say no to him again because I realize I need money gawdammit and I have no reason not to do it tonight. I hate this, I hate this, I don't know why I'm still working on this thing but I can't stop. I can't do it. I don't want to do it.

Everytime I use my skills to do something I have no feeling for... it, like, kills me inside. It feels like my spirit's getting crushed by a 5000 lb weight. I can't do this thing my way, and I can't do it the way I was asked to do it. I don't know what I'm doing and they all expect me to deliever something worth gold within the next, like, day/few hours. I feel so pressured. I put my heart and soul into everything I draw and everything I make... and when it comes to this kind of stuff, someone else's idea that they want me to get down EXACTLY without any room for creativity... it's really painful for me. No part of me is in this and yet it's being done by me. There's no life to it, no soul, no spirit, no nothing! No heart. It's just... there... because someone told me to make it... I almost feel used. Like... I'm selling myself out. But isn't that what commisions are? I wouldn't mind drawing for profit at all so long as it was something I cared about, or at least learned to care about. But this is so meaningless to me, just a piece of nothing... and I can't stand nothing, soulless nothing! My heart and soul are being used to create a meaningless nothing!

I don't care how much money logo and design people make. I hate this and I don't even care if I get paid at all anymore. I just want it to be over with.

I don't know if you guys understand how I feel or not, but... I just...

Other news:
Mandala was canceled today at the last minute after I spent the last week and a half recruiting new members and getting everyone excited for it... gawdammit. It was rescheduled for tomorrow.
...I don't even want to go anymore... gawdammit. I doubt Trotter will be able to patron the Anime Club at this point. I'm sorry for getting everyone's hopes up. Maybe there won't be an anime club this year at all...

GAWDAMMIT.

Today's lowdown:
I'm sooo tired from school. xD I wanna comment on all my friend's recent deviations and journals and stuff because I luff them so, but... I just don't have the energy. X3

Muu. I told that guy whose logo I was supposed to do that I couldn't do it. School is getting busier and busier by the day for me and I know I won't have time to do the kinda thing he wants to have done. Which reminds me, I'm sorry for slacking off on the Creature Creations officials, guys. I'm working on the Night Crawler minotaur right now and I'll try and post it up tonight for adoption. But I won't be able to do better than that until the weekend, and maybe not even then either.

I was just plain tired this weekend. All I did was lounge around and sleep instead of doing my work. I actually finished that logo, but I was asked to tweak a bunch of stuff on it to the point where I'd have to totally redesign everything basically... so... yeah. Too tired. I wanna sleep. xD School's taking a lot out of my brain, but I don't mind. I know I'm going to really enjoy this year. ^_^

It sucks though. I want to/ have to draw sooo many picture ideas I've got in my head and I just don't have the mindset to do 'um. x.X; I didn't even get to finish that Dorian Gray fanart! Urg! I did this really bitchin' Egypt posterboard for mythology last night though. Throughout the day today I drew pictures of Ra, Osirus, Isis, Horus, Thoth, and Set. I'm really happy with how the whole thing came out. Horus is so fugging cool - my absolute favorite Egyptian god!! xD

Myuu. Came home today and slept for a couple hours. It didn't help anything. xD Before I went to sleep though I saw a commercial for YGO for this saturday. Know what?

Freaky psycho evil Bakura makes me happy. He makes me very happy indeed. Buaha. xD

Other news:
Muzai from Ghost's kitty staff quit. x.X; We'll miss 'er! ;-; Anime Club at school is still on hold until we secure a patron. The first meeting of Mandala is tomorrow! Whee! Two new episodes of YGO on TV this saturday - w00t! I hope Bakura wipes the floor with our dear pharoh. X3 That asshole I ordered my Yami pin from on eBay STILL hasn't sent it out even though I bought it 3 weeks ago. He won't return my gawdamn e-mails either... -_- But I'm doing a picture of human Aru for painting class this month! O.o I started with Aru last year and now I get to start with him this year. ^^ The people at my table still wonder why he's wearing a skirt and has an earring... but hey, I don't know either. xD He's shirtless too! Whee, I'm sure my folks are gonna love this one. *sarcasm* X3; OMG! MG finished the contest prize for me for winning her sphynx contest! It's so cute!! xDDD That's the first non-Keri-drawn group picture of the main characters in Merceria ever done(that I know of). Ish very special to meh! Thanks again MG! n.n Ooo, I won that art contest for the GW yaoi thingy afterall! First place for the CG solo level. ^___^ I got to order a shirt from thinkgeek .com as a prize! xD New award for it on RFF too. ^_^ I still hafta find a new forum for RFF. Oi. Joined a new club. Yay for doujinshi. ^_^ I think that's all I can remember for now. Meh.

See ya next update. O.o *sleeps* xD

O... M... F... G......

The Picture(Portrait) of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde. Read it. Now. I demand it...

It was supposed to be my summer reading but we all know what _I_ did with my time instead. *eats her awaiting requests and sites* xD;
But but but... I read some of it tonight because I have a test tomorrow on quotes from it, and... oooo... such adorable shounen ai right off the bat! xD;; It's so fugging CUTE!! After the first few pages I couldn't put it down. Oscar Wilde writes in the same way my head thinks... the same tone my thoughts are structured. It's freaky. O.O Instead of just skimming through the chapters, I ended up honestly reading 3 wholes ones and I should finish the 4th very soon. It's gooood!!

Poor Dorian, I feel so bad. That Lord Henry guy is one evil evil evil bastard. x.x Ugh, the art of corrupting the beautiful and innocent! It makes me sad, but compels me to read more!! Plus all of Oscar's hedonist and existentialist theories are fascinating. o.o

The characters are so intriguing. Dorian is adorable! And so is Basil's affection for him! And that bastard Henry is a classic anime villian(whee!!)! I kept getting flashes of manga scenes in my mind as I read. This would make a wonderful manga indeed! But Lord knows I don't have the time or energy to start ANOTHER manga project. Maybe one of you do? xD

Anyway, after just a little bit of reading I was compelled, COMPELLED, to draw fanart of this book and I think it'll be a really fun mini project to color up and stuff. Dorian is such an adorable character! - at first... hehe... xD Can't wait till the weekend!

Requests? What requests? xDDDD;; I'm kidding. ^^; I'll get to them sometime soon, promise... someday...? @.@;

Muu! First day of senior year was fun. We did absolutely nothing but go over classroom policies and cirriculum expectations. Soooo I had a lot of time to doodle and and mess around with my friends. Very fun indeed. xD

All my classes are actually... fun! O.o; Like, none of it seems too hard, 'cept for algebra II and all the essays we have to write in English. Meh, but the teachers for those classes seem really cool so I'm happy about that. My english teacher plays 80's music for us after she's done teaching! xDDDD She said I could bring my FLCL CD next time. I can't wait to freak everyone out. xD;;;

People are really confused about my armbelt. Good. xD

Also! Anime Club! Yes, I think it's getting off on the right track this year! I asked Mr. Trotter(our new really cool part-time teacher/Mandala patron) if he did anything on thursdays after school and he said he did absolutely nothing. Score! Buahaha, I'll do my best to make him our new A-Club patron. We'll suck him into animation yet, won't we? *jumps on Tigrin's head* xD Muu! Mandala sounds like it'll be real great this year, too! n.n

I feel so good to be a senior. Like, I'm not afraid to do the stuff I wanna do. For instance, I sat there in class - in social public moreso - freely reading manga. Gravitation, no less! I can honestly tell you I would've DIED if anyone in my class knew I liked Japanese animation in freshman year. Those who found out then nailed me to the ground with mockeries - "Oh ha ha, you like japanese cartoons, ooo Sailor Moon, ooo my little brother watches DBZ too, ooo." Now I don't give a damn. xD But also there are a lot more people who actually like anime these days then there were back then, which I'm very pleased about. *danecs* xD

I... think I have homework tonight? I dunno, I'll figure it out in the morning. xD;;

I have so much crap to draw. o.o *compelled to draw Aya/Omi for Mir* xDDDD Plus I hafta get that Bullet Proof logo cranked out. Fugg. @.@;;;

But in short! It was a great day and I'm really happy with the way things have turned out so far classwise. Yeah! Finally a positive-looking year! xD

Hnn, didn't fall asleep till 6Am this morning. Woke up at 7:30 because I wanted to watch Yu-Gi-Oh. It's fun having no life. xD;

Grr! These idiot people keep trying to send me that "MAILERDAEMON: Re:" thing with the 100k 'thank_you.pif' file in it. I read in someone else's journal that that mail is a virus! And I'd agree, since I'm pretty sure the real MailerDaemon bot doesn't have an account @tropical-something.net or whatever. Plus it doesn't send back 100k files I never sent out.

So if any of you get that sort of mail, DELETE IT. Don't even try to open it.

Ah. Welp, 8:55AM right now. The day is going really fast. O.o It feels like I just woke up a half hour ago. *sips her coffee* Sigh, I needa work on more requests. I got 4 new officials up on Creature Creations in the last 2 days. Hopefully I'll get 3 or 4 more done today.

Dammit, I've been having the freakiest dreams lately. o.o Like, no, they're FREAKY. If you can imagine giant monster hands and feet floating in the air and trying to kill each other, then you've got the slightest idea of what I've been seeing in my head. I think my subconscious is on crack. O.o; All of my dreams have been feeling much more real these days too. Like, I'm in the dream and I honestly BELIEVE what I'm dreaming is real, THE real world. It's a very strange but comfortable feeling all at the same time.

This afternoon I was sleeping at the foot of my bed next to the TV and the History channel was on. Something about this shipwreck in some harbor... Well, I could still hear and rcognize the TV even though I was asleep(I'm not sure how this works but I swear I was asleep), so I dreampt that I was actually there AT the shipwreck site, and I was helping the speaker guy on TV prove and disprove certain theories regarding how the ship sunk. It wasn't in modern times - it was in colonial times. Like, I was in the water and it was nighttime, supposedly when the ship sunk, and I was holding onto a... cannon? that was still sinking. And what was weirder is that some really nice colonial sailor guy reached out for me in the water and helped me up into this little white rowboat he was in. It felt so real. I could feel the water, the cannon, and the guy helping me up. I woke up and I was like " ...Why... am I still here...?" X.x;

I think it might have something to do with me trying to get back to a normal sleeping schedule. No more sleeping during the day... blarg... @.@; Well, oke, ALMOST no more sleeping during the day. Naps are very much approved.

So yeah, yesterday was my school orientation for seniors. Meh. Nothing too exciting. They're being nicer on the rules this year I think though. But maybe it's just because we're seniors. My school always says that it treats all its students equally... well, seniors are definitely the faculty favorites then... REALLY favorite. o.O But that's a good thing for once. Come to thing of it, yesterday wasn't all that bad. It was kinda fun to see everyone again. :3 'Cept I forgot the names of a lot of my friends... ;

YES I'm THAT scatterbrained!! X.x;;;;

We had to get our new ID pictures taken too. The dean guy that was standing at the door and waving students in stopped people once a certain amount of us got in, and I was at the front where he stopped us. He looked at my armbelt and was like "Whoa, what's that?"
"It's my armbelt. "
"Pretty cool, but you can't wear it in the picture. Take it off."
"Buaa." *tries sliding the belt off*
"I've never seen one of those before. Where'd you get it?"
"I found it in the middle of the street! " *still trying to slide the damn thing off*
" Cool!"
"Yep!" *finally slides it off*
Everyone else behind me: ..." OMG...Freak. !"

;;; I was originally expecting everyone to make fun of my armbelt, but that was pretty cool. X3 *is/was afraid of that one dean* I actually forgot I had it on. O.o; *eats Miracle* Dem j00! You got me into belts!!

Oph, I walked into my distribution class late(thanks to my cousin http://nekou.deviantart.com/journal/1056759/ Sun, 10 Aug 2003 21:07:48 PDT Time: 8:45 PM Pacific

DA is friggin' annoyiiiiiiing! x.x; Blah. Had to retype my whole j-sig... well sorta. *hugs the 'view source code' option on her computer* ^^;

Anyway, yes, I'm on a friggin' 'must draw shounen ai!' high right now so expect some lovely goodness in my gallery soon. *pokes the Ryou/Bakura picture* Do you know how much of a pain that was to color? X.x;

Bah. I'm hungry but I don't want to eat. I sliced the top of my thumb today with an old exacto-kinfe I was using to make an adjustment to my Wing Gundam Zero Custom model. Owwie... but not really. Didn't hurt as much as it did scare me at first. Like, *knife slips* "AHH! O.o;" You know, if you do it right, your tongue acts as a great temporary band-aid. I hate tasting blood. Poor thumb.

I found out that cute little Gundam Wing doujinshi I bought at the Anime Expo is actually a lovely piece of almost-graphic yaoi. But hey, at least it's 2x1. I like my shounen ai DJs more though. ^__^

I tried to play videa games but my thumb was bugging me, so I sat down to watch some good ole' subby Gundam Wing. Been ages since I watched that. It was cool because I had recently cut off a debate with one of my Anime Club school friends about whether or not the pilots were really shounen ai and that Quatre is/is not a total wuss. Quatre's not a wuss! He's just really sensitive and cute and smart and friendly and feminine. *nod* ^_^ Psh, let's see YOU master the ZERO system and calculate winning strategies and tactics on the battlefield while loads of Virgo IIs are firing at you and your friends all at the same time, hmmm? X3

4 of my 6 most common/main Merceria characters have become other people's bishies. ; *Chava and Moasi point and laugh at the 4 boys with fangirls drooling and cuddling on them* ;;; Riis goes to Mir, Aru's boy form goes to Renee(but she'll share him with Dem, mur? ), Dem goes to TK, and I get to keep Niko all to myself. *hugs 'im, gets bopped on the head* ;

I've been on a chibi spree lately. Just a warning. O.o;

Ugh. Scrunge found some bastard who's selling my artwork at CafePress .com on t-shirts. I already filed a copyright infringement report and I've royally chewed out/warned the store owner, but besides that, there's nothing more I can do. I fucking HATE HATE HATE CafePress .com. Me and Renee were scoping out a few other stores for more art theft and we found a whooole shitload of it. Everywhere. I read CP's statement about how it strictly tries to enforce the copyright and distribution laws regarding original artwotk on the site... bullshit. This is lunacy. I can't believe we found so many people making money off other people's artwork without a single penny of compensation or a drop of credit for the artist, all within a short amount of time. Fuckers. I should sue CP... no, seriously. I'll sue that asshole "Saiyin Gal's Anime Shop" store too if she doens't take my stuff down. She's selling a bunch of other stolen art and even Neopets images too. Redistributing Neopets designs is SO illegal... *tattle tales* Bitch. e.e;

Ah, I feel better after ranting.

MUST draw/color the stuff I'm supposed to! But I don't feel like it... so...
...Aru x Dem shounen ai, here I come.

Joined the DA Gryffindor house. Kick ass. *hugs her soon-to-be-mine HP scarf*

I made me a birthday list today! Hurrah for online shopping. I hope I get some FLCL out of it. Come to me, l337 n1nj4 hoodie.

Oh yeah, FLCL is gonna be on Adult Swim this monday at midnight. If you miss it I'll hate you forever.

I drew a cool picture of Riis last night. It's sad but kinda cool at the same time. Revenge is sweet. Demmit Mir! He's all I've been able to draw lately... but that's a good thing...

There is NOTHING on the radio these days. I like that 3 Doors Down song but it's kinda old. I already downloaded DIDO's White Flag song. Purrty. *hides her Limewire and old style dont-have-to-pay-for-shit iPod*

I'm supposed to clean my room and bathroom today. I'll do it next month.

eBay is my long lost friend. Found some real nice Gundam Wing 3x4 shounen ai doujinshi recently. It is SO mine. *eats whoever tries to out bid her measly $2.50* I wanted what looked like a nice 4x5 shounen ai DJ too but only for the artness and the purrty Fei on the front cover. It was 5 bucks though. I'm not THAT rich.

I don't even like LotR and I find myself chuckling at this one... because it's all so true: [link]

Holy Hell, I haven't updated in a LONG time. ;; But there's really been, like, nothing to report on as far as anything goes. o.o;

Oh yeah! The contest ends TONIGHT! I've got a total of 27(28?) wonderful entries that I know you're all gonna love to pieces! ^_^ Voting should begin sometime tomorrow.

OPH! Me and Miracle sent each other some art through the mail! I sent her the original sketch of the Riis picture down below and I think she's sending me a Niko sketch! Merf! *feels special* ^__^

A lot of things have been developing for me as far as manga progress goes. I can't really say what's what right now, but the ideas be flowin' at least. ^^;

Oi. I love my stupid little arm belt. It's a thin red suede... cat collar I think, with a gold buckle. I found it in the middle of a street next to the parking lot at the Anime Expo back in early July. I dashed out to get it, I did! Tail and bell bouncing all along to and from safety! It was/is too small for my neck so at the time, I just strapped to my right arm. It's been there ever since. I dunno, I think Miracle got me into body belts. Aside from this little bugger, I have no other belts that I frequently wear. I found a little collar ring recently and I've been sticking little charms and stuff to it. Ish fun! Right now I've got a silver little mini lock and key on it and a lil' floofy white feather hanging from the buckle. Ish furry an' soft! I think it's an... arm collar now. X3

Oke then. I'm happy.

Oh yeah, a word about my "Latest Policy Violation". e.e; I got that for saying "shame on you" to a character/pose thief of Kaze's(Ghost's Anime Kitties). I didn't cuss at all! Not even a wee bit of sarcasm(like last time, how I got my first policy violation for ripping an art thief of mine to shreds), and I STILL got a violation for reporting this idiot girl! And no, this girl has NOT gotten a policy violation for her crime or has been banned or anything, even though I provided VERY sufficient evidence that she stole Kaze's design without any due credit.

DA is cool, but sometimes, it just fucking sucks. The admin or whoever gives out policy violations needs a crash course in the field of what a fair decision and appropriate action is. *remembers her moderator days* -_-

And hey! They haven't responded to my help inquirey e-mail, and it's been WAY WAY WAY longer than 48 hours... cheh, help indeed. -____-

From the griping above, I'll say that the girl who stole Kaze's design is called "rainwalk" on DA. :iconrainwalk:
Thing she drew: [link]
Design stolen from Kaze: [link]
It looks like she plagerized a lot of other art in her gallery as well, but I can't say for sure. I'm only calling her on the Kaze theft. She's already been added to WAW's wall o' shame.

Music: my FLCL CD - I dunno what song and I dun care
Thought: "Is my phone ringing?"
____________________________________________________________________

Hey there, Con fans! I'm back from Anime Expo 2003! M'ish had lots of fun! ^__^

First Day: Wooo, I got there at a blinding 7:30AM and already the lines for registration were hours long. x.x; I stood there making small talk with the people in front of me for an hour until I finally got my con badge. From there, I met up with all my AnimeNet and Anime-Forum friends(I've known them for, like, 2 years, so yay ) at the opening ceremonies. We left theceremonies early because they were friggin' boring, and we went around exploring the hotels and Convention Center to get a feel for where we had to go. We went to a yoshitoshi ABe panel(creator of Lain, Haibane-Renmei) and sat for 2 hours while these idiot people kept asking him questions like "What do you think is the meaning of life" and "Are you spiritual" and stuff. Merg. @.@ I'm sorry to say I was falling asleep the whole time. I feel bad. X.x;; When we finally left, we got pink tickets so we could come back and get ABe's autograph, but the session was delayed til the next day. Oh well. From there, we went to watch Furi Kuri(Fooly Cooly). FLCL is SO great!! Haruko is awesome! *BONG!* After that we FINALLY made it into the Dealers Room but none of us saw anything worth buying. We got dinner at some pizza place a few blocks away, then came back and went to a "Duel Jewel" J-rock concert. Pretty cool. ^_^ We wrapped things up by watching the Animatrix. Kick ass. I only got to see Second Renaissance: part I because I had to go home early that night. There was family from Germany over. Myur. x.o

Second day: Oke, so we were all supposed to meet the rest of the AnimeNet/Anime-Forum folk in the morning at 9AM outside the convention center. Around 10:30AM, everyone we gave a damn about finally showed up and we got a big picture. Yaaay. -_O; I wanted to hang out with my friends Vanessa and Erin from school, buuut... they were, um, busy with Tyler and Mike. I kind of wanted to talk to Tyler more because he was such a major player on AnimeNet before it died, but I guess he was interested. He always was a bastard anyway. Oke, so a troop of us went to the ABe autograph session and waited another 2 hours in line, but the session was canceled because ABe was tired. Bah. -_o Oh well. We went to a small concert for the composer who wrote/preformed "Fake Wings" and "Key of Twilight" from .hack//SIGN but we left in the middle of it because we only wanted to hear those two songs. We were tired, so went and got some Starbucks to perk ourselves up. But as I was walking out, frappuchino in hand, I saw ABe's producer friend stroll by with his translator. Of course I SEIZED the oppurtunity, literally, by jumping in front of him and squealing "I know you! You're that guy! AHH!" And I grabbed his hand and shook it all enthusiastically and he was like "^__^!" He asked me what character I was cosplaying(I had my red neko tail, ears, and giant kitty bell on with regular clothes) and I said somethign stupid like "I'm a random kitty girl!" and he laughed and said "Cool!" in that neat Japanese accent. Then he played with my kitty bell for a sec, waved g'bye, and went on his way. IT WAS SO COOL! My other friends we like "AHH! We wanted to shake his hand too! No fair!" And to top it off, the producer is fuggin' HOT. O.O Like, really really yummy. He had the coolest clothes and shades on too, yeh! ;; *overwhelmed by his sharpness... ]]> ~nekou
