UPDATE Nov. 27: The First Batch of Cards are being sent out on Sunday Nov 29!! Be sure to note me before then to receive yours!

Good day everyone! I hope you are all doing well

It's been pretty quiet around here, albeit busy. Time seems to not be around anymore. If I'm not working, I'm playing video games or watching movies, and occasionally I do a bit of artwork. Not as much as I'd like to though.

Curse my obsession with Kingdom Hearts

Anyway, so the purpose of today's entry is to invite you all to a Christmas Card exchange as I have done in past years. I really do enjoy sending out cards and would like to invite you all, even if you haven't done one with me before, to exchange Christmas Cards. They are nothing fancy, just store bought cards, but I LOVE handing them out, and I love getting them in return. I've already a few people wanting to exchange, so this is the official entry of... exchangy-ness

Isn't that fun then?

Anyway, so here are the deets:

1. This will run from now until Sunday, December 6th, so I have time to mail them before Christmas. Canada Post is not exactly the most efficient mail service during Christmas time, so... YAY.
2. In order to get a card, I would either like one in return, OR if you cannot send one to me, then at least a gracious thank you

3. NOTE ME your address with "Christmas Card Exchange" in the subject line, and I will send you mine in return and a confirmation of receiving your address.
4. THIS IS NOT FOR ARTWORK. As in this isn't the art giveaway (which I am not doing). Sometimes, I do draw a little doodle in a card, but nothing fancy

.
5. If you participated last year in this with me PLEASE NOTE THAT MY ADDRESS IS NOT THE SAME, so I will send you the new address upon you sending me a note.
6. Cards will be mailed out as soon as possible, but no later than the 2nd week of December. I will be doing all my family Christmas cards this upcoming weekend, so if you want to be in the first batch of mailings, send me an address as soon as possible!
7. When you receive your card, PLEASE LET ME KNOW. I just feel more comfy knowing my mail didn't get lost. Heh.

And NOW... THA LIST! This list will be updated weekly or however often I can.

So keep checking back if you have received the confirmation email from me.

Dope Stars Inc - Criminal Intents (Industrial Rock)

Hey everyone! I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving / Columbus Day weekend! Mine went swimmingly... headed back down to Sarnia to spend it with my sister and her boyfriend, Josh, and I had a great time. I actually got 2 Thanksgiving dinners out of the trip... one with Josh's family on Sunday, and one at the Babcock's in Kingston on my way back up to Ottawa on the Monday (which was a terrible drive back up, by the way. I HATE travelling on holiday days). Both meals were delicious. I can't believe I was still alive after eating so much food. GUH. But OH THE HAPPINESS OF THE YUM

Still haven't bought the DS I want. I think, looking back on my journal, this was the week I was going to buy it, but I'm thinking I'm going to finish Chain of Memories first (I'm stuck at FUCKING VEXEN. Any tips???), then I'll pick up a DS. Still don't know if I'm going for the DSi or the Lite... Both have equally cool reasons to get either system... just... don't know. A few more weeks to decide. Yup.

In other exciting news... I got to see the new Astro Boy Movie a week early!!

Julie, my roommate got us advanced screening tickets (OMG I LOVE OTTAWA!!!), and we got up early this morning to go see it!

YAY!

I think this was one of these showings that the "star" ratings are based on, because there were official-looking people there with notepads ticking off boxes and stuff. WEE OUR OPINION MATTERS!

LOL. ANYWAY, in a nutshell, when it comes out... GO SEE IT. I don't remember much about the original cartoon, so to me, the movie was fabulous. It had a lot of heart and soul, and a lot of "OMG I WANNA CRY!" parts. But that's just me. I get moved more by cartoon characters. ^^ The animation is BEAUTIFUL and VERY smooth and the eye candy is great too! Kind of a "growing up" tale, guess that's the best way I can describe it

But I won't say much more... I'll let you guys enjoy it for yourselves

Just go into it with an open mind and heart, and enjoy it.

Art's been slow-going... I got a new pic finished before I left over the Thanksgiving weekend, just scanned it last night, so I think I'll have that up soon. As well, I'm going to dig through some of the few pics I inked before Thanksgiving and scan those in too. I know I keep promising, but scanning is such a chore on my computer ever since my scanner crashed (yeah weird...) last winter... I had to revert to the old software that only lets me scan one pic at a time at 5 minutes each so... BUH. Yeah, never too excited to get pics scanned in for that simple fact. BUH.

That and I'm lazy

Otherwise, I started base-colouring three more pics, and half-inked some fanart. YAY!

Would like to start drawing again too... maybe do some more DW/Kingdom Hearts crossover crap because DWD in KH would KICK ASS. Wee. And I really need to do more original art. So much to do, so... much laziness overpowering me instead

I also have a shyteload of messages to get through in my inbox here on deviantART. If you've sent me a note or messaged or commented or whatever... SORRY! I'm quite frankly too freaking lazy lately. Slowly go... ]]> *rat-lightshadow I'm Alive!

***EDIT: Thanks to all those who are participating! It really means a lot to me ****

Hey all, just a quick reminder that this is the last week I will be taking Christmas Card exchanges!

I will be taking them until Sunday, December 7th (or Monday night, when I will most likely be checking my message centre and get a chance to put the cards together. So yay. If you're interested, read the rules below, and send me a note, and I'll add you to the list and send you my address

Horrah!

So, here's the deets:
1. This will run from now until Sunday, December 7th, so I have time to mail them before Christmas. Canada Post is not exactly the most efficient mail service during Christmas time, so... YAY.
2. In order to get a card, I would either like one in return, OR if you cannot send one to me, then at least a gracious thank you

3. NOTE ME your address, and I will send you mine in return and a confirmation of receiving your address.
4. THIS IS NOT FOR ARTWORK. As in this isn't the art giveaway (which I am not doing). Sometimes, I do draw a little doodle in a card, but nothing fancy

5. If you participated last year in this with me PLEASE NOTE THAT MY ADDRESS IS NOT THE SAME, so I will send you the new address upon you sending me a note.
6. When you receive your card, PLEASE LET ME KNOW. I just feel more comfy knowing my mail didn't get lost. Heh.
