I also still have involvement with the following oekaki:

[link] - I run this oekaki board.


The sites I've been frequenting are [link] , [link] , and [link] , amongst others. Mainly, my work's been centered around OpenCanvas sessions, which in their raw and uncensored format would blow this site's center of morality so wide apart it couldn't be stitched back together again. So much for being "Deviant".

Regardless, if you were a fan of my stuff here, I urge you to check out my FA page or alternatively, the OCS website for some of my newer stuff.

Until next time..... ]]> ~nobuyuki http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/3594358/ http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/3594358/ Fri, 15 Oct 2004 07:09:22 PDT
I've decided to move to SheezyArt. Therefore, the submissions you will see on my DA page will become a trickle in comparison. The reason for this is censure, I believe that no site has the right to call itself both art and deviant when there will be artists too deviant for it. Perhaps it's commercialism, perhaps some misplaced sense of morality, who knows. The point really is, who cares? I do, cause I like to be given the chance to actually have people boo and thumbs down my work rather it be deleted by a robot without so much as a half-baked excuse for ettiquites I never comprimised. Also, did I mention that this place is too crowded? You get what you pay for, I know, but jesus H, if free service includes complimentary missing thumbnails wherever I go, I wonder what this says to subscription service.

Anywho, like I said, that doesn't mean I'm going to do something like clear this gallery out of spite. Far from it, I want this site to be a mini-testament to the crap I did submit here when I was active. Thanks everybody for your continued support, and I hope to see you all again when I start creating new submissions for the SA community.

On the plus side of this, I thought perhaps I could use this time to set up the adult gallery and this time make it actually open to the public. First thing's first, though, I will have to hack the Gallery source code again to impliment the features I want; namely artist commentary and anti-leech.

The same people who host my site also host :devsupernitro" 's site too, so give him a visit and have pity on the both of us. ]]> ~nobuyuki http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/3041081/ http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/3041081/ Wed, 04 Aug 2004 10:21:37 PDT
To add insult to injury, windows XP refused to install on top of windows 2000 and now I must re-do all my settings. C:\winnt vs c:\windows. Fuck that too!

I'll probably be better in a week or so.

On the bright side of things, I bought a new 21 inch monitor for 5 bucks at goodwill (it's a Sony Trinitron with BNC connectors, which I bought a pair from CompUSA for quite the penny). I also bought one of those fancy small canon scanners.

See you all next time. ]]> ~nobuyuki http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/2979745/ http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/2979745/ Tue, 27 Jul 2004 12:54:16 PDT ]]> ~nobuyuki http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/2937163/ http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/2937163/ Wed, 21 Jul 2004 21:09:40 PDT [link] got 30,000 hits. Unfortunately, I don't have anything to show for it. I think I might get working again sometime soon cause I realized I don't want to stay at this same job forever. I don't know if I told any of my journal readers what I REALLY wanna do, but it's a bit whacky anyway. My current idea to make tons of money is to team up with *supernitro and ~Kitty-is-Pissed to make an adult doujinshi; with guest art hopefully by ~ quark777, Xodiak Gangrene, and ~ramzkun . I want to get it listed on DLSite, as my goal for Do-jin Nyuu anyways was to be a complete westernized experience of typical doujinshi circles. Failing that in many ways, the doujinshi will probably come under the circle name "K-Ero Comics", since Nitro already established the group with a production by himself and DK_L.

I'm hoping Kitty will draw me a picture for Do-jin Nyuu's front page, but right now she's working on some gift art for Motoaki (who is now known as Noise). Neoguy (Ryan Downing, my normal CG artist) seems to be utterly MIA for the time being, so I'm looking for somebody to do a nice artwork to fill his place temporarily.

Finally, I'm considering for the nth time whether or not I want to start using PureBasic. If I do, my project will probably be to port DietSpriteWrite to PB and release it. It will be a lot easier to program considering Marcello [link] is thinking of making Lasceaux Sketch open source. This program, if anybody who knows me remembers, was at one point in direct competition with sprite write under a different name. My idea of modular plugins had been taken to the extreme with Cello's original idea, but he decided to refocus the program as an oekaki applet, which in the end benifeted everyone better. Interface is the most important part of a drawing program next to features. The source code might provide some insight into how marcello solved some of my more vexing obstacles in Sprite Write, as well as perhaps unearthing some speed hacks for fast pixel operations.

Lastly, a co-worker of mine wants to check out some of my art cause he needs a graphic designer to do computer decals. If anyone knows of a printer that does decal printing at a reasonable price, let me know. Cya all next time! ]]> ~nobuyuki http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/2887162/ http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/2887162/ Thu, 15 Jul 2004 08:35:45 PDT

Also, I'm thinking of replacing my CPU core, since I had to upgrade my PSU to install this thing. After that, nothing in my computer will be stock anymore, which kind of sucks cause for 3.5 years old, my computer's been putting out an admirable 1.5ghz the entire time. Semper fi ]]> ~nobuyuki http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/2791380/ http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/2791380/ Fri, 02 Jul 2004 21:50:18 PDT
This place is nuts. Insanely nuts. Imagine a computer store with over 40 checkout counters and a huge line to get to em. Imagine a computer store with a full sized, enclosed restaurant right in the middle of it. That kind of nuts. Imagine a computer store with 3 aisles just for screws and cables and shit. Sams Club length aisles (supermarket aisles). Imagine a store with hardware-store like demos of motherboards you can touch and feel attached to a wall of pegboard 40 feet long. An aisle as high as a warehouse shelf and just as long packed to the limit with ONLY writable optical media. A convension-sized carpeted demo-room floor for computers. You guys in the midwest have NEVER seen anything this huge. Not even in Chicago.

Anyways, I went there, and did more training at work today. At Frys I bought myself an athlon 2700 motherboard/CPU combo for 60 bucks, and then got a 512 stick of PC2700 DDR for 30 bucks more. Got a free case with a PSU. Now I'm gonna make my 100 dollar communist computer. TAKE THAT CHINA ]]> ~nobuyuki http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/2753798/ http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/2753798/ Mon, 28 Jun 2004 08:28:53 PDT [link]

Secondly, I've finished porting my game Soccer Freak to Vitalize, so it can now be played online and you can (FINALLY) submit your high scores again. Check that out here: [link]

Finally, I'm working on a screensaver next that is actually an NES emulator. Sound interesting? I hope so.


Now, about these strange things that have been happening. Last night, me and my mom were driving to the restaurant when a car driving across the intersection had a tire fly off and a bunch of sparks fly at us. The car was moving fast enough as to drive the entire way across the intersection. The people behind him just drove around it like it never happened. I thought it was like something out of a movie and couldn't believe it. The tire bounced around a lot and eventually rolled the entire way up a hill before coming to a stop. When we came back later and they were still there, we asked if they needed a phone. Turns out that the son had installed the brakes himself and seems there might have been a problem with that. hmmm.... I don't know anything about cars (computers is my area of expertise), so I'll have to ask my dad what went wrong.

Secondly, later that night (around 1am), I felt some bumping and shaking coming from the next room. At first I thought it was my brother doin' it or some crap violently. Turns out it was a magnitude 4.5 earthquake. You heard me right, an earthquake in illinois. I don't believe it either, and neither did my dad. Until a friend showed me this: [link] . Now tell me that earthquakes can't happen everywhere. That's freakin' nuts.

Anyways, I gotta work today, so probably I won't be releasing that emulator screensaver right away. But keep your eyes peeled, if you're into that sort of thing.

Catch ya'all later. ]]> ~nobuyuki http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/2656896/ http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/2656896/ Mon, 14 Jun 2004 08:29:07 PDT
Today, I'm gonna go deposit my checks and get a haircut. Then, I'll probably go and either get one of those Dual Layer burners for 80 bucks we're selling this week (MAD DOG, btw, which I believe re-branded an NEC drive), or possibly get a new car stereo, cause I need one. I'm getting fucking sick of having no audio in my car to relax me. The entire ride home I got to think about my "disgrace" of being made an example out of what happens when you sell outside your section -- with no radio in a 100 degree heat car interior.

Blah blah. Anyway, I'll stop complaining. I was just a little upset/slightly pissed that the whole thing happened, anyway. All I want is approval from my superiors (I want to do a good job). I know I'll probably never get it from the big guy. A damned shame.

Edit: I managed to recover an old photo disc with lots of my artwork from 2001 and 2002 on it. Every day until I run out of pics, I'll be sure to submit at least one for you all to "enjoy" in lieu of my abscence due to artist's block. Hope you like them, cause I planned on never sharing some of these -- they were just so cute some of them, but I was always too scared to show them off because my art sucked at the time. Now I'll be tossing them into scraps, so judgement isn't as harsh ]]> ~nobuyuki http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/2592315/ http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/2592315/ Sat, 05 Jun 2004 20:28:49 PDT

Either way, stress up the anus. You can now understand why I've not been in the mood for drawing anything lately. Drawing tends to make me frustrated, as for me it's a bit of a perfectionist's nightmare. I can never get my pictures perfect, and if anyone bothers me while I'm working on them, I flip out like a motherfucker.

Anyways.... I think these stressful times might make me return to an old hobby which always used to calm my nerves that I never thought I'd pick up again. Programming. I was thinking about finishing DietSpriteWrite, god forbid, in my free time once again. I felt since it's non-stressful work that is basically looking up API and then coding possibilities all day, it might make me feel better because it's easier to perfect code than it is to perfect artwork.

My apologies to those of you who'd prefer I'd draw more stuff. I'll see what I can do sooner or later. Cya all next time! ]]> ~nobuyuki http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/2426142/ http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/2426142/ Fri, 14 May 2004 07:24:55 PDT
In this dream myself and my brother Roger (who mind you I'm sometimes at odds with for his attitude) were back at my old house playing with the kittens that sometimes hung out in our backyard alley. They were unusually friendly, and we were having a very fun time, when at the moment I would least expect, one of the kittens is shot dead by something. Immediately my brother and I start looking around for windows and rooftops and see NOTHING. Me and him decide to go call the police and start walking towards the house when suddenly I hear a noise and he falls over me halfway.

He had been shot in the chest. I couldn't see any blood thus far, but then again I didn't stick around to check. I acted like a coward, leaving my brother there. I noticed the shot was a through and through from his back, so I started looking towards the roof of the church behind our house. What I see is an old lady, looking very calculated. I stopped being scared once I knew she didn't see me from behind our hedge and immediately went into the garage for an old shotgun.

I took aim thinking it probably wouldn't do much but provide cover fire, and shot towards the church roof. Then, I ran to my brother's side, where he was lying on the grass. This is where things in my dream took a very bad turn. You see, he was still breathing. I told him everything was going to be all right. He started to laugh. Very slowly. This really upset me, and I started to say his name over and over again and repeat myself trying to convince myself he would be ok. Then, my brother said, in the nicest voice I'd ever heard him say something, "no, it's not". After that he became incoherent and I couldn't understand what he was saying. I hugged my brother and told him I'd see him up in heaven and started to cry. I knew that was it, the end.

That's when I woke up. I couldn't get over it really, so I told my dad about it and he seemed to be disturbed as well. I said that I didn't really realize I cared about my brother until he could be gone. He said maybe I should talk to my brother when he wakes up. I will, but I don't want to disturb him either, knowing how he ended up. You see, it wouldn't have been so bad if he had just died right there after the first shot -- it was how he was after it that made me feel it was real. I had to sit there and watch him die. And just like my brother, he refused to be helped; even though he knew he was gonna die. He wasn't rude or blaming me for it, even, he just kind of said it was okay and then kind of sputtered out. It really bothered me.

Anyways, here I am writing this to you few people who read my journal now, I hope you can learn something about this to all of you with estranged family or maybe best friends. At that moment I saw my brother die, I felt like we were best friends -- we aren't, but I felt like it. You'll feel 10 times worse than losing a best friend, trust me. Make sure you have a talk one of these days and come to terms with your situation, so that if that person you know dies, you won't have any regrets that you never told them how you really felt. OK?

Have a nice day everybody. I'll try to remember it's my birthday today. (Maybe someone out there's still making me gift art? I'm a wishful thinker :3) ]]> ~nobuyuki http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/2424351/ http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/2424351/ Thu, 13 May 2004 21:30:39 PDT

Anyways, I've been brewing this idea that I was hoping TravisSk could help me bring to fruition, since it kind of coincides with a project of his own. I had thought of calling the project "Audible Fusion" after the concept it most closely mimicks, Multimedia Fusion [link] But of course it's just a project name. I came up with a bunch more plugins today which further simplify the process of creating music. The project basically lets you create a grid of built in Objects and Extensions (including VST), and connect them all together until they finally go out to a Speaker object.

Among the most unique of these plugins I want to call something like "Track Generators", after the fact they create notes for tracks using the sounds fed to it by the FM/PCM Generators. Of these types of Track Generators I want are these and maybe some more:

Sequencer -- MIDI style piano roll. Can import MIDI notes.
Tracker -- MOD style tracker pattern interface. Can import MOD notes.
Drum Machine -- A board of switches used to create drumloops.
Chord Generator -- Generates a chord from the instrument(s) hooked to it from either a list of chords or build your own.
Arpeggator -- Creates automatic Arpeggio effect based on time/tempo from a list of common arpeggios, or build your own.

These all export Patterns, which could be hooked up to either a pattern organizer (like a tracker), or a Playlist control (much like Buzz or Fruity), which obviously hooks up to the speaker control for "audible fusion". Generators hooked up to them create instruments internal to each object, or you could use an Instrument Organizer object, which would let you hook up the sounds and instruments in any order you choose, which could then be hooked up to multiple objects of the Track Generator type. All this would be visualized on one grid, where clicking any object pops up it's properties, etc.

More later... ]]> ~nobuyuki http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/2074181/ http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/2074181/ Wed, 24 Mar 2004 07:10:10 PST ~nobuyuki http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/1978925/ http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/1978925/ Tue, 09 Mar 2004 05:57:48 PST
Anyways, before I headed to bed I checked out these guys' satellite TV (see this entry to get what I'm talking about: [link] ), and on TechTV there was what appeared to be a random anime show in the vein of the long-missed SATURDAY ANIME feature on Sci-fi. The show is called ANIME UNLEASHED and it was a welcome surprise to me, being the jaded cynicist towards anime that I am.

I suggest anyone who has a satellite dish (which isn't me, unfortunately, as my house has too many TV's and also cable internet to switch) tune into TechTV on the weekdays from 9pm-1am to check out this neat showcase. That means you, Renee. ]]> ~nobuyuki http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/1970398/ http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/1970398/ Sun, 07 Mar 2004 19:30:02 PST ]]> ~nobuyuki http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/1937809/ http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/1937809/ Tue, 02 Mar 2004 07:03:20 PST
Scandisk was unable to access a portion of the file allocation tables and is unable to fix the problem. This could be a sign of iminent hard drive failure. It is reccomended that you do a Thorough scan now.

So, I try a thorough scan, thinking the same thing will happen. Well, it did get stuck on checking the FAT for C: again (this stupid hard drive click, silence, click, silence loop whenever it can't access something), only this time the error said something like Scandisk has found an error and will fix it later, but it is recommended that you proceed with a standard test after this one has completed.

Now, I don't consider myself a superstitious man, but the last time Scandisk told me there was a problem with my FAT table, and I actually rebooted to Safe Mode to let Scandisk finish a scan without constantly restarting (because restarting means enjoying the click of death for 60 seconds while it times out and gives another error), the thing crashed and TOTALLY corrupted my last hard drive. So now, I guess I'll be backing up files all damn day, which sounds about as fun as a hernia test.

Then maybe after that I'll push my luck and try scandisk in safe mode to watch it fry another hard drive, or something. Not that I can afford another one right now, needing a new video card as well and all and only having 100 dollars left to my name.

Shit. My computer's cursed. ]]> ~nobuyuki http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/1830184/ http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/1830184/ Wed, 11 Feb 2004 19:21:27 PST
Alternatively, check my homepage or DJN for the skinny on my other projects.

My latest work of any kind was a recent chiptune cover called "Pia Noodle", which you can find on the music section of my homepage. Enjoy and stuffs.

Hope to see you guys again soon! ]]> ~nobuyuki http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/1542090/ http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/1542090/ Tue, 16 Dec 2003 07:15:43 PST ), so I might as well let it pass and shove in a new journal entry.

What's up today? Just bored, on a day off with no exams, and one more to go, which is going to be more of a chore than it is a challenge. I woke up with this odd tingling to go visit DA and actually comment on people's works, so I did. Shouts out to the people who got comments. Anywho's, that also made me see a nasty trend that's been going around many DA pages: The snowball fight. Boy, am I glad this place is empty enough to avoid that crap. But if any of you reading this decide to get the gall to throw a DA snowball at me, I PROMISE I will either take you off my watch list / not visit your gallery for a month. So be forewarned. I guess I'll make an exception for that extremely off-the-wall DA xmas raping that's going around, but I'm afraid I'd feel wrong passing it on (sorry fala!)...

Oh! Also, I might have a nice little job doing 4 channel MOD files for some pocketPC game. I like 4 channel mods for chiptunes, but I hate using them to make specifically non-chiptune stuff. I'm working from a second-hand source (my buddy Travis, who's too busy to do the music), so if I get bitched out for not fitting the game theme it's going to piss me off. That being said, I already composed 2 songs for it. When I'm finished I'll probably throw them on DualTranslations.org and add them to the game soundtracks section at Do-jin Nyuu (which definately needs some updating, btw).

Anyways, back to halloween. I handed out candy with my dad, and in our improvizational style, came up with our theme 5 seconds before the kids started to ring the doorbell. I quickly dressed myself up in my 'trademark' suit and tie [link] and gave the kids the silent treatment, while my dad donned my brother's top hat and black trenchcoat and sword. He waited out the kids until they were least expecting -- then WHAM! Jumps up yelling "TRICK OR TREAT" and then stabs our pumpkin with the sword! Scared the life out of quite a few many kids, teens, and a mexican couple. Ha ha.

Our neighbor Tom came over later, with the most hilarious costume I'd ever seen. He had dressed up as Captain Crunch and went around the street hitting on chicks with various captain crunch phrases. We all stood in a row and got a photograph, but I ain't showing it here cause I look too much like a fatass ;p

That reminds me. My mom's on this crappy Atkins diet. Seriously folks, you can't have ANY carbs in it? She thinks eating a fucking potato in beef stew's going to make her bloat up 10 pounds. This world needs help when we start to think potatoes are what cause fat.

Since I enrolled in college, all my art time has been spent in the art classes I'm taking. Since I don't have my scanner hooked up yet, and my digicam is out of batteries (those suckers cost 15 bucks!), I will not have any submissions for you in the immediate future. When I do get either of these things back up, you can expect to see some paper and graphite works instead of my normal oekaki stuff. I hope you will enjoy.

In other news, my free time at home has been recently spent doing the music to an RPG called "The Spirit Engine". Myself and two others are on the music team creating works for this beast of an RPG two years in the making. I'd like to show you all some music, but I think that they might have plans to sell the OST.

This time was extremely weird, where I was fighting for the attention of two mysterious, outerworldly girls I've never seen at this school before with this faggy nerd-kid who seemed to know exactly how to get their attention. These girls were super innocent, I swear, in that they would talk to anybody without inhibitions and basically make you feel comfortable conversing, but nerdkid was gonna take advantage of them, so I took it personal to try and stop it. The nerd (let's say his name is Brian because I got that kind of vibe from him in the dream) had a few random objects which seemed to be like catnip to these girls, but neither me nor him had seen the girls for a long time, and he was hoping the items would bring them out of the woodwork (these girls always hung out together like sisters or something). Well, oddly, one of the items was a teatherball and I assumed that if these apparition-like girls were to reappear somewhere, it would be by the teatherball. So searching I would have to go. In this school that I didn't know whether I was accepted or whether I should despise because it wasn't real.

The first thing I tried was before classes (in my dreams the classes never start, it's always before school, after school, or in between classes) was to hop down to the cafeteria and try to extract the information out of that jackass of a nerd. Without success. I was surprised such a dorky looking kid had the guts to stand up to me (yeah right, but really), but it might have been to impress my little brother who he seemed to be friends with (and weirdly enough my little brother was there too on the table). So, I whispered to one of my buddies who was hanging there (Vince! If you're reading this) to try and keep pressing the guy for information while I kept looking.

So, away I went to see if I could find the teatherball and (in my mind) the two strange girls who would undoubtedly be there pawing at it. As I passed out of the lunchroom to the south side (the exit facing the back of the school where the aquarium was), I got that feeling of disgust again because that gallery was an example of the taxpayer's dollars going to waste. In real life I had always dispised the misuse of money by the school board because I basically moved from a richy high school to a not-so-fortunate one my graduating year and learned a valuable lesson. Then, I decided to travel a corridor less-taken and see what was back in the old locker hallway where people usually stuffed their bookbags and other junk (like some little used classrooms).

Lo and behold, what did I find in this big open area it lead to? A giant freaking amusement park ride! Things were starting to get weirder when I realized -- who was manning the ride was none other than local celebrity Bernie Mac! I was freaked out by the presence of a celebrity but remembered that some celebs work volunteer jobs at local schools and museums and I've talked to one volunteering before in real life so I calmed down quickly. The ride, a spinning platter, didn't seem to be very popular yet (it must have just been installed), so I asked Bernie if he'd seen two strange girls go by, or possibly a tetherball hanging from the ceiling. He said no, but asked if I wanted to ride for free. I asked him, "How much does it normally cost?" and he said that the school paid for it so all rides were free. Sounded like a very generous offer, so I hopped on the machine and spun around the disc getting very dizzy, and then hopping off again after realizing from the view by the ceiling that one row of lockers wasn't attached to the wall but just placed there recently at the head of a couple stairs!

I told Bernie I was going to slip between the lockers and to just keep doing what he was doing and cover me to make sure nobody saw. Behind these lockers was a very old corridor back to the cafeteria, which I used to get back and inform all the people hanging out there in the beginning of the second part of... ]]> ~nobuyuki http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/603705/ http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/603705/ Tue, 08 Apr 2003 08:52:52 PDT [link]

And post your impressions (if any). ;3 ]]> ~nobuyuki http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/564192/ http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/564192/ Mon, 24 Mar 2003 06:53:45 PST
During my senior year at a high school that changed my life (I went from the least popular kid my freshman year to when I moved here to this school becoming one of the most popular), I was transferred against my will by the administration to a very overcrowded, delapitated old high school which I despised so much the idea that I basically shunned my friends I was making there unintentionally. I graduated from this school, but I felt like I never said goodbye to my real friends. And I've never seen them since.

Anyways, the dream always goes something like this. I'm in a class or some other place either asleep or studying, and somebody always makes me aware of my setting (being woken up, or pulled out of deep study, etc.). Last night I was studying from a book of kanji I had lost when I moved here (?). When all of a sudden, a bell rings and I end up in the hallways of my old school. Suddenly I am filled with a sense of undefined happiness as I pass by all my old friends in the hallway. Weird enough as that seems, I almost felt as if they were all patting me on the back as if to say "welcome back".

So then after that, I think to myself "now I can head back to my next class and live a normal life again!" but I don't know what my next class is since I just transferred back to this school. So what to do? Head to the guidance counselor's office, right? Well, as I head back, three times in this recurring dream I somehow get stuck in this library, a place I've never been to before. Which is convoluted to hell. And I always see one of the computers at the library scrolling the same message across the screensaver in various fonts which I cannot remember it's message (it seemed to be like the credits for the programmers? It's just weird)...

As I feel a sense of urgency to get my way the hell out of this place, I panic more and more until finally I wake up. Sickened. That here I am, a high school graduate, without college plans, and doing nothing but slacking off with my life wishing I could have changed the past. I don't know what to make of this, but I got a college curriculum on my desk right now. Please, for the love of god people, don't make your subconcious dream up these ghosts of the past, because they can really freak you the fuck out.

A final note: When I said I got stuck in this foreign library 3 times, I didn't mention that on 2 other occasions, instead of being let go of the first class, I was let out of the last class and did not know which bus I took home. Same situation, I panicked and then the buses were all gone (that school's buses waited for no one). Always wake up freaked out because I wake up no longer as a high school student but as a graduate, as if my time had passed already and there was no way I could go back to the school I loved. This particular high school also has a community college and that was the school I got the papers out today. It's not too late for me to go back to college -- let this be a lesson to all of you. ]]> ~nobuyuki http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/549390/ http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/549390/ Mon, 17 Mar 2003 16:22:30 PST
P.S. I'm working on a new personal page, after realizing that I can post all of my art there rather here, all I needed was a host. Click the following to see what's done so far!

And, I'd like to wish you all a happy valentine's day. I am happy this year because I'm getting paid a lovely sum of cash after commissioning a valentine's day love song out. Since I'm such a spam whore, I'd like for you all to hear it and tell me what you think. It's Jpop/VG/80s style!

kthx and see you next post :3 ]]> ~nobuyuki http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/483703/ http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/483703/ Sat, 08 Feb 2003 10:56:56 PST

Anyways, I have a tendancy to be long-winded, so if I start to bore you with this journal entry, let me tell you what a certain person told me on IRC about how I chat: "This isn't your personal LiveJournal, nobody cares" -- like I was fucking complaining? Anyways, I said I didn't have a journal until I realized that this is one. Thanks to the guy who mentioned that. You are an asshole Texmo, don't ever change ;p

Before I start, let me get something off my chest: Why is the DA Pixel Art section infested with megaman sprite rips? Those things are like my pet peeve...

As for what happened to me yesterday, it was quite uneventful IRL (basically hooked up an old controller to my uncle's computer so the kids could play MAME with it), but I surprisingly got a lot done in the way of artistic whatnot.

It started off in the morning, when I woke up with a bit of a tune in my head. That's like a godsend to me, because I am a composer and have had severe writer's block since new years started. Of course I didn't manage to FINISH the song, but you can take a listen anyways: [link] (mint35, a Yamaha DX-7 tune)

Oh, and in case anybody actually enjoyed that, here's a couple more I ended up trying to write but couldn't finish:

[link] (I Promise You, a chiptune version of an 80s song)
[link] (Nights into Dreams, ambient style)
Yes yes, and impressions are always welcome.

Finally, after that I planned on making a bunch of T-Shirt designs on Pixeltees to sell (please buy one!) but didn't get around to it until the very end of the day. Drawing 'Pixeled T' was very difficult and took a couple hours, so by the time I was finished it was already 2:30 AM so I went to bed. You can check out how I did by checking out the deviation 'Pixeled T' here on my site. Make sure to let me know what you think! ]]> ~nobuyuki http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/467662/ http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/467662/ Wed, 29 Jan 2003 18:24:02 PST
The only courtesy I git was a small rehash of the etiquitte policy from one of the admins. I guess that's the first thing I wanted to hear, more specific details for an admin, but now I have to start filtering out my content before I submit it so it doesn't end up in the Comstock Lode. Fuck. I feel like resubmitting them with cute little cat icons or red X boxes over their girl parts. Anybody with some experience in this area? I welcome your input.

P.S. If my violation counter keeps rising I might have incentive to go on a holy quest for more of this "Pornography" that seems to be in every deviant's gallery now and days ]]> ~nobuyuki http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/465880/ http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/465880/ Tue, 28 Jan 2003 19:31:47 PST

Well, my violations appeared on this page now, so yay I'm no longer in WTF mode, but I'm starting to dislike the fact that now some of my older, more established pieces in my art collection are starting to be killed off. This is unforunate, since we all know that nudity sells and those are like my more popular works too. I'd sure like to know who's sifting through my old stuff and deleting it for el-mysterio policy violations, cause it's not like I'm breaking any new contreversial ground in the world of oekaki or anything (or breaking the rules either, seemingly)... Something just tells me this is one of those unspoken rules of political correctness

Will somebody up there please tell me what's going on here ;p ]]> ~nobuyuki http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/465647/ http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/465647/ Tue, 28 Jan 2003 17:15:28 PST
Here's my problem with the whole thing, though. If I DID violate policy somehow, why can I still see my thumbnail submissions on my pages and stuff? The whole thing is acting weird. On top of that, I'm not even listed in the violators list: [link]

...which really confuses and pisses me off, because now I don't know whether to re-submit my work, or to ask an admin wtf happened to it. Before the thing started screwing up on me though, I was laughing at the reaction I got. So, congrats to all of you who made my day -- nothing like a couple hecklers to give a big thumbs up to

P.S. if the deviation is still acting up by tomarrow I'll post in the Help forum about it, otherwise, could someone be so kind as to explain to me how the violations system works? Cause I think an actual admin has to delete the thing and I don't know which admin that was, otherwise I'd like to talk to them about it x_x ]]> ~nobuyuki http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/403911/ http://nobuyuki.deviantart.com/journal/403911/ Sun, 22 Dec 2002 16:59:41 PST
I am Nobuyuki.
I am a guy.
I like girls.
I'm not a fucking furry.
I don't care if you're not a fan, you can go fuck yourself.
If you made it this far, then I love you. You deserve a prize. Go fuck yourself. >:3

As of my birthday this year I have been 18. Therefore I will not only like girls, from now on I will probably draw them too. If you don't like it, click any link that doesn't have my name on it.

Finally, I'm not this direct to the point in real life. This little heads-up will hopefully scare off people who might otherwise piss me off. The rest of you are welcome to try to be friendly. :B ]]> ~nobuyuki
