1) National Novel Writing Month ([link])
2) Commissions
(Yeah, I know, it's two things.)


1) I joined Nano because suggested it, and well, I was interested. It's already started (Nov1), but it's not too late. It's a contest of writing a whole novel of 50k words before the end of the month (Nov30). What's the prize? I have no clue. I joined for the fun of daydreaming.

2) No, I'm not setting up commissions, but my friends, and did. They're quite good, so sample their work and take up a commission slot. Details of commissions can be found on the links below:

Now back to my school work... Damn this.

I haven't gone through my deviations or my messages neither. So far, I have 1098 to go through, but I refuse to see them until I'm done my entry. I apologize to everyone, because I'll be responding to your journal entries really, really late.

I definitely love Anberlin's music. I always go back to them, ever since I discovered them in 2006. They gave me peace through negative parts of my life, and I can't get bored of them. Their lyrics are barely straight forward. Their lyrics make me daydream of a revolution. Their music isn't as strong sounding as Skillet is, but I love most of their music more than Skillet's. I love Skillet too, but I love some of Skillet's songs. Skillet is when I want to feel tough, and Anberlin is when I want to feel free, but both make me want to fight for greater goods. I'm going to.. stop ranting about Anberlin.

If you want to hear their music, here's my [playlist] for them. One of my favourite songs isn't there. It's called "We Dreamt in Heist". I recommend listening to:
- Audrey, Start the Revolution
- We Dreamt in Heist [On YouTube, video code: pL3WY5KMUi4]
- The Undeveloped Story
- Change the World (Lost Ones)
- Reclusion
- Retrace
- Haight St.
- Soft Skeletons

Yes.. I'll stop ranting.

School's been done since days ago. <3 The wonderful part of being in fine arts is the fact that while everyone is studying for their exams during exam time, we're pretty much free and can relax a bit. At the university I go to, our exams are in class on the last day, so that's the killer part-- While we have exams to worry about, we're dying trying to complete our final projects for each studio course.

Now before going back to daydreaming and chewing and sucking on chopped up sugar cane stalks, I wanted to say..
Thank you, ~ You've really made my day! <3

She did a [kiriban thank you] for me of hahahaokaygottawatchmyhorriblefangirlnessforthisGuy from Tales of the Abyss. It was.. ah, about submitted a month back, though I only saw it today when I finally got a chance to go through the deviations.

Thank you greatly! <3

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As for this one, I was tagged by both and

8 Random Facts
♥RULES♥
1. Post these rules.
2. Each tagged person must post 8 things about yourself on your journal.
3. At the end, you have to choose and tag 8 people and post their icons on the same journal.
4. Go to their pages and send a message saying you tagged them.
5. No tag-backs

1. I want to start writing the blog storyyyy!! I can't WAIT! I CAN'T! I want to start sequel! I want tooooooooooo----

2. I want to live in a different world than our own. One where the choice of learning from experience by means of a journey is not looked down upon, and studying in the way we are doing now will give you the rank of a scholar. I don't want to spend my time sitting in class dreaming of adventure; wasting my time scribbling on paper information that won't stay in my head longer than half a semester; irrelevant information I will most likely not use in my career choice, and stressing, and eating and stressing over midterms and exams and gaining weight 'cause eating pizza is a fast and yummy meal.

3. I broke my index finger on my right hand when I little. I don't remember how old I was. I remember the doctor had to cut away a layer of my skin, but I don't remember why. I remember having my mom bathe my arm and bandage it up, and I'd wear it in a sling. Thinking about this is making me sick. And in relation to this, I dropped frozen ham on my right index knuckle. Fun. Now I'm left with pain when I move my wrist or stretch my fingers. Hehe. I don't think using the computer 24/7 is helping either.

4. I use to draw to make friends... That doesn't work anymore T.T On a similar note. I like being alone and talking to people behind screens. They can't judge you by your actions. A simple gesture that was never meant to happen purposely, such as rolling your eyes, could add a... ]]> ~rakuen004 http://rakuen004.deviantart.com/journal/16108688/ http://rakuen004.deviantart.com/journal/16108688/ Wed, 26 Dec 2007 11:54:56 PST tagged me! So.. here I go!

1. Post these rules
2. Each tagged person should post 8 aleatory facts about ones self
3. The tagged person should post a journal/blog entry.
4. In the end, tag and name 8 more people
5. Go to their DA pages and comment that they got tagged and hug 'em!

Alright.. Let's see.

1. I am currently obsessed with DMC 3 & 4 and Nero. >.>;
2. Hurray for white-blonds! X3
3. I sleep late. Like, LAAAAAATEEEEEEEEE!
4. Age division and superiority block me from being myself. 'rah.
5. I love sleeping; wish I'd dream more though.
6. My laptop is like my second life.. maybe I should try playing that game one day.
7. It's difficult for me to find a game I will enjoy to the end.
8. I'm FALLING INSIDE THE BLACK! BLACK! BLAAAAAAAAACK! XD

Urah. So who wants to be tagged? TOO BAD X3 I'mma be meannnn and taggggggg

YOU!


DUNDUN DUNNNNNNNNNNNN!

uwa.. stroke of luck. my mom asked me to bring out a frozen block of ham to thaw it. anyway, it was freezing my left hand while going up the stairs so my grip was pretty bad. i slipped, the ham when up in the air and landed on my right hand when it was on the stairs to steady myself. in short, frozen ham squashed my hand. haha.

uwa.. i want to draw.

I've been tagged! O.O tagged me

1.) How did you come up with your user name?
eh.. well, something unoriginal. rakuen came from one of the japanese ending themes for yugioh that i really liked 'cause of the colours i could "feel" from the song T.T a never ending shade of yellow from the setting sun! yay! as for 004, when i first used this name, someone already had "rakuen4" so i'm 004. and yep, 4 is my favourite number, as well as an unlucky one in japan, china, and i think korea.


2.) Do you have any fancharacters? If yes, who was your first- and what traits did you give them?
i can't remember my first-first. my second though, was Nabickay "Nabi" Hayashi, and she existed as an anime dimension traveller! so her first appearance was in a dragonball z doujinshi i drew she was clumsy and dumb and.. me-like.


3.) Your favorite series? (list up to seven if you want)
naruto...
bake, decorate, celebrate! (XD)
hanna montana (when i'm at my boyboy's house)
arthur

i don't know what else..


4.) Do you plan on making your own comic or doujin at any point?
yes i do! i have my character ready too! i just need time and inspiration T.T


5.) List your top seven, most used emoticons. Emoticons tell a lot about a person!
O.O - ^o^ - XD - - T.T


6.) List one to seven bad habits about yourself...
procrastination, nail/skin biting, sleeping late, eating when unhappy,


7.) Personal sayings? (Philosophies, self-proverbs, etc...)
i don't have personal ones, sadly, just:
- "Or perhaps those of us who hide from the pain will never know the joys that might lead to such profound pain." - Drizzt Do'Urden; 'Sea of Swords' by R.A. Salvatore
- 'I pledge my service, and my life if need be.' -Keldorn Firecam (Baldur's Gate II)


my turns. i taggy:
