After 3 years I'm done with uni.
I didn't do too bad in the end either :)

Now with no money and an excess of free time I spend too much of it thinking.
My mind is stupid an conspires against me, it wants me to be sad >_<
I won't let it tho, not always anyway.

My thoughts always seem to revolve around money, everything is expensive an there's no job that I know of (that I would have a hope of getting) that I know I would enjoy doing for any extended period.
Eh~ Well I'm sure between the two of us we'll figure something out.

As usual I'm completely failing at being less fat, again I blame my brain -`__ -
but I am going roller blading with some friends today, that almost makes up for the copious amount of chocolate I quoffed yesterday... no...

If I work up the courage I might try to sell some pics down at the market, maybe >_>
aside from that nothing else to report,
sitting around watching daytime TV isn't very interesting T___T

Take care everyone.

So today Eli cut up my desk made it small XD
People may laugh at the tinyness of my desk now,
but I don't mind, they're just jealous >___> ...
If I had it my way I'd probably be on the ground all the time, I'm not a fan chairs really.
One day I will have my kotatstu (low Japanese multi-function table, like a coffee table)
& all will be well :nod:
I've slept on Futons most of my life an I prefer them over beds any day :D
Just the other morning I exited my bed face first an it didn't hurt at all,
it felt grand in fact.
Low to the ground is the way I likes it ^_______^

So, I think that's about it for my rant about how I like to be low to the ground...

Uni is going good, an I'm really enjoying animating atm,
although I'm definitely starting to worry about being able to finish on time 0___0`

Health is only so-so, but only time will fix that,
ummm, guess that's about it really.

I've been having a good day an I thought I'd share the joy.

Today I have animated some (not much), assisted my best mate Pascoe in stalking my youngest sister :thumbsup:,
I had leftover curry for breakfast, leftover omelet for lunch an now i'm chomping down skittle like a rabid monk :D

I want one of these > [link]
but yikes on the price right?

It'd be nice to have a good job so I could afford all the useless shit i want *sigh*

but now it's all rainy which just adds to the joy :love:

Man Skype is hilarious, I just made Pascoe nearly fall off her chair XD

What else... Oh yeah! Some A-hole has hit the back of my car an just driven off!
I think it was when it was parked a few days ago, what a right bastard >:(
Some people really suck.

I've watched tons of Azumanga Daioh recently, so good, it's gotta be my fave anime series ever~

We're going on an adventure charlie! Candy mountain!

Oh and I made cake the other day, it was pretty damn good,
it had like those discount Coles smarties in it an it was all colourful an delicious :D
I wanna make more, but i'm out of eggs, used them all up in the omelets *sob*

so I better get back to my work now... >_____>

I'm quite a lot better since my last journal
I feel quite happy and energized in fact :D
even tho it's half 11 *o* (it's late for me ok...)

So all is pretty good at the moment
finishing up the first semester of my final year
an very happy to say that I'm not insanely behind :w00t!:

Got Platinum a while ago, it's awesome, as pokemon always it ;p
haven't played too much yet (uni desu kara)

I also found some Coles brand smartie/M&M things that are gluten free
an this fantastic chocolate soy milk, it's sooo good (really!)
I'll take this chance to pawn it-
It's healthy, gluten free, lactose free &! low fat
It's called Chocolate Bliss by Soylife, for anyone who wants to try it

on that note I did have gluten by accident, again, twice *shame*
I'm no good at being a coeliac, wish I could quit

Anywho that'll do, I'm going to bed
Feel free to spill about what's happening in your life :)

They were delicious by the way :nod:

Also, most people already know, but I ate some contaminated sultanas recently :noes:
they made me very sick an I have been quite sad of late :(
but feeling a lot better now, YIPEE!~ :w00t!:

I have a movie recommendation too, it's a Japanese animated movie called "Mind game"
Craziest shit I have seen in a long time,
animation was awesome, as was the story, characters etc
Everyone should see it! Highly recommended if you're into hyper crazy fun Japanese stuff
(WARNING: The start is kinda bleak,
there's an almost rape scene, but it perks right up, so don't worry!)-(also some nudity etc)

Anyway :p

What else what else...
Someone drove into me a while ago, well, into my car, which I was in >___>
but my car's all better now an I'm picking him up today! JOyce! :D

I think that's about the most of it...
oh, there is a tamagotchi colour, back-lit screen an everything! Shiz YeAh~
but not released anywhere but good old Japan as yet

Love you all, I'd better run an hang out my washing
I'll tell you about my recent bizarre dreams another time,
they involve mad chain-saw wielding kangaroos, Willy Wonker, The mad hatter and MORE!!! @_@

Autumn brings many joys, including cooler weather, I myself am suffering from what I'm calling a 'turn of the season cold'
My system tried to adjust to the colder weather, but I still got sick :p but I don't care because Autumn is totally the greatest season ever!
So my face is melting but I'm totally happy.

I'm back at uni now, & yet again I have resolved to be more vigilant & keep up with all my work.
Week 1 - So far so good ;p
Doesn't sound like much, but last year I messed up right from the word go.
This time I'm gonna do good, it is my final year, I'm told there's no better time to feel like doing well. :slow:

So yeah, lots happened over the holiday, I can easily say it was the greatest holiday I've ever had, not including the horrendous bushfires :(
I made a bunch of different things, caught up with friends, went camping, took a trip to Sydney, all the fun stuff :) Twas awesome.

All in all I'm feeling pretty super (aside from the sick bit)
I attribute this to successfully avoiding gluten and being healthy.
Speaking of, I've lost like 7 kilos, go me! woo~

Hope you're all feeling super too. :)

I'm so insanely happy there are no words for it, I'm still in a little bit of shock & words aren't happening easily but I really want to tell everyone, even total strangers!

I just can't believe it's happened, it's amazing, I'm engaged to Eli, best day of my life.
It happened on Thursday the 11th at about 9:30pm :heart: :heart: :heart:

So being on holidays is pretty much awesome. :love:
I have so much time I've been able to do lots of fun stuff.

I've watched a bunch of movies for starters, including "Wall E", "Australia" & some others which I can't quite recall at this moment :p but my favorite so far has been :star:The girl who leaped through time:star:. It's an anime movie, so if you're into that sort of thing you might wanna check it out... It has an interesting story, beautiful style & the characters are king :D Overall I think it had a nice feel to it.

I've also read the Twilight series *gasp* (usually I never EVER NEVER read ANYTHING at All) So this was a bit special. Since I know nothing about books I can't vouch for how well written they are, but I thought the story was a bunch of fuzzy awesome. For anyone else who, like myself, lives under a rock & doesn't know squish about the books, they're a fantasy, romance with a solid amount of violent good-ness. It gave me pure joy & the first movie is out in Australia This Thursday the 11th! :excited:

um um, also I've been living high on Skittles-(Candy of the Gods) & Playing the Sims 2, & I'm proud to say that my gay couple who also 'fancies' robots *wink-wink* & their alien daughter are super. :lol:
& Last night, or rather this morning I woke up at 5am cause I had another Zombie nightmare, god I hate them so much. I wouldn't get up to go to the bathroom & I stand by my decision. >___>

I ate a pack of stacks (yum) & I've been drinking Kefier everyday :)
So now my squishy Panda is staring at me so I'll be on my way. :p
Hope you're all having as much fun as I am. ^___^

*turusai What matters most http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/21408358/ http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/21408358/ Sun, 09 Nov 2008 16:22:30 PST
I've had some wonderings recently... :p

To sum up, I want to know what is most important in life. :slow:

I think it is to be happy, but happiness is different for everyone.
We all find happiness in different things.
So what if to be happy you have to spend your life doing things which make you unhappy?
All I want is a nice, stable home, but that is much easier said than done.
That means a lifetime of working very hard to earn the money to cope with the countless expenses involved.

So anyway I think all I'm worried about is pooping my life away working hard and being unhappy.
When I see all those massive traffic jams of commuters heading into the city everyday to go to work I get a sick feeling, the thought of having to do that is a nightmare to me. :noes:
That's the way the world works tho. v___v

I spend a lot of time thinking about life, wondering how to live better, maybe I'll figure out a way one day.
The best I've got so far is buying a nice rural property out in tits an arse middle of no-where (cause it's cheap) an living an in-expensive, minimal, self sustained life. I just want to have a few animals, mostly dogs an ferrets, and draw, swim, garden, lay in the sun, all the things that make me happy. *u*

I want to be calm all the time, I can't deal with stress of any kind at all.
Maybe that means I'm screwed because life is hard an stressful, but there's more than one way to live.

Does anyone think that sounds possible?

I'd love to hear what other people want most in life, share if you like :)

I make it sound kinda serious but it's really not at all...

Really all I'm deciding on is a few things I'd like to do including stuff that I wanna draw some/more of.

I figure My dA journal is as good a place as any to note these thoughts.
Then I could maybe get some feed-back, ideas, suggestions etc.

LIST =

- Sew, I want to learn to sew goodly. (& I shall!!)

- Make a mushroom bookmark for someone who shall remain unnamed...

- Make a quilt. (I like warm) ;) as well as many more amazing things including plushies, a coin purse, pillows & so on & so forth in that manner.

- Draw: More couples, A centaur or 2, Perspective stuff, Environments, Naked, ToBeContinuedAsIThinkOfMore...

- GF Cooking, there needs to be more Gluten-Free convenience food in my house, like muffins & cookies, & I shall make it. :p

...

That's actually all that's popping to mind at this moment...

So anything anyone wants to contribute, I have no idea what, but feel free. :D

It's Autumn (fall) here & I've recently realized that it is my most favorite season.
I really love all of them but there's also something I dislike about them too.

Summer - Gets too hot, especially here in Australia, we're also at high risk of bush fires, there's so many icky bugs, but worst of all everything turns all yellow & brown & dry, I ADORE grass & summer takes it away. :(
Winter - Actually I really love winter, just sometimes gets a little muddy & damp & that can get uncomfortable. Plus there's "The Winter Blues"
Spring - Lovely, but hay fever damn near kills me, plus there are even more bugs & spiders than in summer. 0_0

Autumn - Is the king of seasons, the weather is perfect (in my opinion) It seems to have a perfect balance between warm & cool, with nice amounts of sun & rain, plus all the deciduous trees turn beautiful colours and then there's lovely leaves swooshing around in the wind everywhere. :D All the green comes back cause of the rain & everything just looks beautiful. I :heart: Autumn most of all. :)

What a ramble...

So what is everyone's opinion on the seasons?
I wanna know!

...

NOTE: Mac is fricken win!
Oddly enough tho, having grown up with PC's there's something I miss about the every now & again.
I think they evoke memories or something...

I can't sleep so I'm getting in on these stamps...

Seriously, how can it be this warm in Autumn.

I's sooo hot right now.
It's about 39C outside (102F) it won't end!
It's been like this for almost a week. :cries:

It's windy too, real windy, it's like being trapped inside a giant clothes dryer...
Of Doom!

I feel like a crisp, & not the kind you find floating in your vodka at 2am,
The bad kind,
The sweaty kind. T_T

I would NOT be surprised in the slightest if a flaming cow blew right past my window right now. *sigh*

I think I wanna flee from Australia.
I miss rain, sweet life-giving water...
Everything out my way is dead, I'd worry about fires, but there's nothing left to burn. :(

I think I'll just stay in front of the AC till I get killed by that flaming cow...
Any minute now...

NOTE: It's cooled down a tad now.
It occurs to me, I need a new desktop screenshot, I have a Mac now! :D

FINALLY! *3*
After months of waiting, going nuts, punching walls & throwing inanimate objects, it's here!
My Mac has come! :boogie:
It's a bit of a story, read the next bit if you're at all curious...

START-
So, a Guy I do some work for offered to get my mac for me because he could get a good deal & thus save me, a poor uni student, some money.
So he calls the store, orders the mac and all is good. :)
...
2 weeks later the mac shows up, I drive to the shop, pick it up & take it home.
When I got home I opened it immediately, at this point I was leaking pure joy.
So I take it out of the box and there on the plastic cover on the monitor is a giant scratch, I mean, it looked like Godzilla had gone to town on my brand new mac! :noes:
At this point I was preying that the scratch hadn't taken to the monitor and slowly peeled off the plastic. IT HAD TAKEN! There was a 3mm scratch on my brand new computer!!!
WHAT THE SHIZ!!! :X
So I call my boss & simply put he took it back & demanded a brand new machine.
...
3 weeks later the brand new machine arrives BUT, they tell us that SOMEHOW, it has the wrong specs... T_T
What are these people?! Fucking retarded ape-men from the deep south?!
So we crack it and cancel the order.
...
We find a new place & manage to get the same price, order the machine, great.
It was only supposed to take 3-5 days.
2 weeks later the machine has arrived!!! :D (Joy of Joys)
-END

If you skipped the story (Fair enough, it's a long one)
I will finally be picking up my brand new iMac tomorrow morning!
Praise the lord! Thank-you Jeebers!

NOTHING can spoil this mood. *Big Dopey Grin*

To everyone who has faved or commented on something of mine, Thanks very very much!

Sorry I haven't left you a comment or something like that, but I am without internet at home (Again!) My bloody Father hasn't paid the phone bill for so long they have cut the phone line entirely, leaving me internetless. :( (BIG SAD!!!)

I have so much to write about my holidays but I simply can't access the internet unless I drive to my Mum's place (Which is a pain)

So if you hear little, or nothing from me please don't be upset, offended, worried etc.
All is good and fine here, I'm just slightly miffed about having no interwebs. >_<

Hopefully it'll be back up and running within the next week or 2 (I can really only hope)

So hope everything is great with everyone out there.
I will update things properly once my internet is restored! :)

I went to the St Andrews general store in search of dip. (They had none ^^;)
Instead I noticed an add on the notice board looking for a casual worker. :thumbsup:
I rang the guy and now I am employed! :boogie:
Turns out he's a photographer so we have the same artsy kind of interests. ;)
Plus he lives right around the corner so travel time is like 3 minutes. ^___^

I am so happy right now. :D

So that's my good news.
I have a job which seems like it'll be permanent, even once I start back at uni, which is awesome.
I am so happy that I'll have a little bit of money now.
I can stop feeling sad. :)

Well, I've had a long line of bad luck lately.

I completely totaled my car, I threw my breakfast across the room, lost my USB key and got booked on the train because of the way I sit!
I have no money and I'm sad.
On top of all that I just keep dropping stuff, accidentally hurting myself, loosing things and my hair is messy. >_<

I dunno what's happening lately. It's like a curse. :S
I realize these things are all my own fault, but still! That's a lot of mis-haps in a fortnight.


Well It's a new month today AND my 4 year anniversary with my boyfriend Eli. :heart:
So maybe things will start to look up.

I plan to do my last piece of uni work for the semester and look for a part time job.
That way I can get some money and eventually buy a new car.

Aside from that I'm going to rest up and do whatever I want for a while, maybe that will cheer me up some as well.

So not so much good news this time round but that's life for you.
Hope everyone else is doing well.
Much love everyone. :hug:

My new computer isn't far away, I'm loving my uni course, I feel much better thanks to various medication, I'm going to Sydney to visit my grandparents over the easter holidays & my eBay account is finally all fixed! Hoorah!

Everything is running smoothly at the moment.
The only thing I still need to sort out is my youth allowance payments; it kinda sucks having no money. :shakefish:

But other than that things are peachy, splendid even. :D

For those who don't know I'm doing a bachelor of arts animation and interactive media & I love it! I especially love everyone in my class; they're all brilliant and so talented. :nod:
Hi guys!!! :heart:

So yeah I'm ultra happy at the moment, the world is my gluten-free pancake, woo!

Much love to everyone, I have to do some more homework now.
See you all!

I hate writing depressing things but I just feel sad today.
Actually this feeling has been lingering & getting worse over the past few weeks.

I've been cruising around DA today, admiring all the astonishing work people have done. Some things are so good they don't even make sense! ...
That doesn't make sense, but I know what I mean! >_<

Anyway, the reason I am sad is because I so badly want to improve my digital art, I am sooo crap at the moment, I want to be as good as the best on DA.
I desperately want to feel better about my work but until I improve I'm not going to.

The problem is I've gotten myself into the position where it's very difficult for me to practice.
Most of my time is taken up by work & other commitments.
Also I REALLY need a new computer, my current one is so dead, it’s old, slow & it’s started randomly freezing up, & the monitor is so old that everything you view on it is dark & blurry. :(
It’s more than 5 years old so it’s lasted well, but I really think it’s time for a new one.

Of course a good new computer means lots of money, I’m working on that.
I’m working on fixing all my own problems it’s just, for the moment I’m in this rut & not happy about it.

I think once I start my new course, get my new computer etc things will be shiny again; I just needed to complain a little.

I have to appologise to all those who actually do like my pics for my in-activity, it’s mostly working full time which has drained my time, enthusiasm & energy, but I’m working towards fixing myself & my position so hopefully in the very near future I’ll have some new improved pics to show. *Faint smile*

Note: Thanks so much to all those who comment, fave & watch; they just keep rolling in despite my recent slump.
Your continued interest & support means a lot. :)

Thanks everyone!
Love Jodie.

*Feels happier now*

I am now the ecstatic owner of a Nintendo Wii!

I was gonna get it today after work, but I checked my bank account last night & my pay had gone in, so, having the money, I decided to go to the midnight launch instead.

Eli (my boyfriend) Lizzy & Sam (my 2 younger sisters) all came along on the venture.

It was... interesting, it was the first launch of anything any of us had ever been to, I was surrounded by uber nerds, they were all nice enough, some were just a little creepy.
One woman (& when I say woman I mean she was in her 30's) kept angrily mumbling, not really at anyone in particular, she just seemed to want to protest, she kinda scared me... 0_0

By the end about 50 people turned up to claim there Wii’s, which I think was pretty good. By 11 we were allowed to claim our games & any accessories but they wouldn't let us have our consoles until 12.

All in all it was worth it, we had fun and time passed really quickly cause we had games, controllers, etc to muck around with while we waited.

Got home & played for an hour or so before I decided I better get some sleep.
I am loving Zelda, it is just so awesome! I wish I could find better words to describe it but I just don’t have the time at present, as always I must work.

So in the end I didn’t get to bed until 2:30 this morning & I was up at 6 for work, it’s gonna be a looong day. *Sigh*
It’s already been a difficult morning, & it’s not even 10 yet…

Can’t wait to get home. :)

Ok gotta run.
Bye all. :glomp:

Can't write much now... must cook dinner!

I have paid one of my fines and all else is good.
When I have more time I will elaborate.

Ok Bai all. :)

End. ]]> *turusai AH...AH - AHHHHHHHHH! >o> http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/10509290/ http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/10509290/ Wed, 25 Oct 2006 17:26:21 PDT
There's too much going on at the moment!
I can't believe I even have time to write this.
I don't really... Moving on!

Presently I have a number of fines to pay, mostly cause my damn dog (who I adore) followed some bitch in heat off our property and got caught. I had to bail him out of the pound and they struck me with all these blasted fines!!! DAMN IT!!!

Also I'm in the middle of applying for a uni course, this is no small task. I had to apply through VTAC, which of course was not free. I now have to complete a 'pre selection kit'
This involves filling in a number of forms, submitting certificates as well as samples of my work, AND I also need to complete a short comic/storyboard based on one of the themes they have set... MY GOD!
THEN I might get selected to go to an interview if I do I need to present a folio and so on and so on.
It never ends!!!

At the same time as all this I recently noticed that my DS Lite has suffered the mysterious hinge crack that's going around, look it up if you own a DS Lite. So I'm sending it off to Nintendo to request that they fix it for me, hopefully free of charge.

Also I have a lot to do with my car, I have to sort out registration and stuff, which is both time consumng and expensive.

I have to do all this while working full time and dealing with everything else that life throws at me. I'm sure it's much the same for everyone else but I just needed to get it off my chest.

So all good news is pending. It all really depends on me getting a whole lot of stuff sorted out.
I really just want to sit in one spot and cry until I fall asleep, then sleep until I don't feel so tired and worn any more.
& I'm only 20!!! If life carries on like this, getting more and more hectic imagine life in a few years time, how will I cope?!

*sigh* I need life to slow down so I can catch up.
There's even more to it than I have written, but I don't have the time to keep typing. Plus I'm sure you're all sick of my rambeling (If you've read this far)

So for now I say Cio.
I'm doing my best but as usual it's not enough.
Talk to you all soon. Bai.

Mood: Very Happy Oh so happy

I've been looking for a really REALLY good rice cooker all week, I found the one I wanted, only it isn't available in Australia, (surprise surprise T_T)

Well I want what I want so I went on a mad hunt to find this damn rice cooker.
Alas it ended in sadness, it was gonna be too complicated & expensive by he end, (almost $500.00 *_*) so I had to give up on it. :cries:
It's called a zojirushi; anyone who lives in America and really loves their rice should look them up.
Warning - they are expensive, but still worth a look, those things can do everything. *u*

I did however find a cooker on e-bay which was almost the same thing, & no-where near as expensive, here's hoping it won't shit itself on me, it does have a warranty, so it should be fine. *thumbs up*

I'll let everyone know what it's like when I get it. *looks forward to super rice*
In the end this one only cost about $185.00, much better than $500.00. *nods*

For any of you who think I'm insane for spending so much, if you don't already know, I have Coeliac disease (gluten intolerance), look it up, it sucks!
I can't eat wheat, oats, barely, or yeast. That makes up just about everything, breads, pasta, cakes of all kinds, cereals, spreads, and most other things you can think of.

But I CAN eat rice, & I do! I eat rice AT LEAST once a day it has become my staple food.
Well, not recently, my previous rice cooker is dead X_X Another reason why I wanted to get a shiny new one. ^_^

Not that I’m all that bothered by what people think, I’ve already had some pretty shocked reactions. Someone even said, ‘why not just do it in the microwave?’…

O_O …what?...

To me that’s like, here’s a tree and a rat, make me a boat.
It just doesn’t make sense.


Moving on.
I also fulfilled one of my resolutions, DA subscription!!! >o< ‘woo’
With all the money I didn’t spend on the zojirushi rice cooker I was able to finally get myself subscribed. *dances*


& onto my poor poor car, still in ruins. :(
I need to find some parts from a wrecker, then Dad thinks he & a friend of his will be able to fix it, I hope so. :(

What else…
Oh yeah, my job sucks!!! Working sucks!!! Don’t do it!!!
Stay in school as long as you can, screw the money, the pain isn’t worth it!!!

I don’t mean all of that, work isn’t all bad… >_>

Ok, there is a point, I’m going back to school next year (if I get accepted into the course that is)
It’s a digital art / media / animation course at RMIT.
I have to submit some art, if they like it I have to go to an interview which involves presenting a folio, and so on.
I hope I get in.


Alright I think I’m done…
Yes…
Yes.

Ok, I will write again soon, and I’m trying to do more pics, but life is difficult, & painful when you work full time.
I will try harder though.
Bye all~

I am so depressed right now, you can't even imagine. :(

It's still completely drivable, as I was hit in the side.
So only the doors were damaged.
However I was hit by a fourwheel drive so the damage is bad.

Not only that but it was my fault, I didn't look properly before turning.
The next thing I knew there was a huge car in my side window...

The only good news so far is that it seems like I will be covered by allianz insurance.
They've lodged a claim for me, so hopefully everything will work out ok.

I'll find out if my car is fixable tomorrow, I hope.
So I'll keep you all informed.

Till then I'm doing my best not to cry...

Firstly I've decided to post at LEAST one pic per week.
I try to get them done over the weekend cause I have NO time through the week.
On that note, Turusai is coming soon...

Umm, my health is a bit better & I'm gonna join the Coeliac society of VIC soon.

As far as my DA Subscription I think I'll ask for that for my B'day, which is coming up. ^_^
I'm almost 20. *o*

That's about it.
I love all my DA Friends & I'll talk to you all again soon.

If anyone is wondering, no I am not dead, I have not passed away I am in fact alive, alive! ...

Yes, well one of the reasons I have been so inactive is my Dad hasn't paid our internet bill, so naturally they, and by they I mean Telstra has cut off our internet. I should be dead really, when you think about it, how have I survived without internet for so long? ??? I dunno.

Anyway onto bigger things, I now have my P's!!!
I passed the test, and on my first try. :)
I can now drive all on my own, and I do!

Which brings me to the next bit of news, I have a job!
Would you believe it?!
I work full time, I, me, Jodie earn money. :D

I am a secretary for a signwriting company called Concept.
It's good, nice place, nice people.
Basically my jobs are, typing up quotes, dealing with e-mails, answering the phone, filing, a bit of tidying, accepting deliveries, etc etc.

I'm enjoying it so far.
Today was actually my first pay day, woo~
Money-Money-Money!

So all is good with me, I'm just run off my feet. ^^;
But I'll get some piccys up as soon as I can.

Love you all~ Ja Ne. ;p ]]> *turusai News & the Chat room. http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/8115207/ http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/8115207/ Thu, 09 Mar 2006 18:37:00 PST
I may be getting a car today, which is very very good.
I'll finally be able to practice and get my P's.
It sounds good, it's a Corolla & it has p/s, a/c & CD player. :D
So I'm hopeful.
I'll let everyone know how that turns out one way or another.

My mum has finally sorted out most of her shyte.
So she's bought a whole bunch of new stuff for the house.
Including a massive 106cm Plasma TV. *u*
I'm more excited about the computer which we're getting tomorrow.

Other than that I'm a happy chappie. *u* (pure joy)

I'll have a car soon, and hopefully my P's soon after.
With any luck a job will follow & then money, sweet sweet...
AND I may well be moving back home with my mother, since she finally broke up with her retarded boyfriend.

^o^
What is Wrath Muffin?
That's what Eli called me the other day.
I took a liking to it and decided to slip it into my journal.
Well in the end I really just slapped it right in the subject bit... but
Dance! :dance:

My name for Eli on that day was Poop Train.
No real reason or story behind that. >.>
None at all...

I love Cheese~
& I love my Mp3 Player~
What? My boyfriend? Yeah he's ok too~

I love all you people, unless you've been mean to me.
In that case I don't like you, I hate you.

And a happy new year too! (At least I made it in time to say that ^^;)

I had a fabtaculas christmas and I hope all you guys did too. :hug:

This christmas was the most hectic yet.
Since the 24th I've spent everyday madly trying to visit all my friends and relatives.
I have had NO time what so ever for drawing, or sleeping or anything else.
Things are starting to calm down a little now, and I should have some time to draw soon.

I have to tell people what I got. :excited:

From my BF Eli, a beautiful silver bracelet & candy. (He knows me so well ^w^)

From Mum & Dad, a fantastic new media player, it's called the 'zen vision M' I had to buy it on e-bay cause they're not available in Australia yet. It does everything, I love it! *u*

From my bud Woodsy, the entire collection of Futurama. (Amazing ^_^)

From my bud Carly, a hilarious book which allows me to swear in many languages. :giggle:

& From my Grandparents, $100. ^o^
That's the most of it.
I'd love to hear what other people did & what presents they got, so write me and let me know. :D

K, I gotta get going, still lots of things to do.
Ja ne. ^_^ ]]> *turusai Because I was tagged. http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/6922111/ http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/6922111/ Tue, 01 Nov 2005 02:37:15 PST And, AND! I was tagged...

I'll play along with this.

1: I am now a coeliac (see-liac). Means I can't eat wheat.

2: When I was little I despised clothes, especially underwear.

3: I really, REALLY dislike worms and sharks, they kill!!!

4: While I was going through my DBZ faze I decided that I was married to Vegeta.
I frequently wished death upon Bulma.

5: I am a raging nintendo fan.
I dislike all things playstation, X box, ect.

6: I love technology, though it doesn't reciprocate.

7: When it comes to genetics I beleive I was screwed!
I am the pudgiest AND I have curly hair! (not to mention the coeliac)

8: I find it almost impossible to commit to things for a long time.
Some things which have lasted are; my boyfriend Eli, drawing, and my fat!

Don't touch my cube.


Ok, hope that is good enough.
I think most people don't know most of those things.
So enjoy.

When I learn how to put up links I will 'tag' some people I know. heh-heh.
K bye. ]]> *turusai The results http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/6887100/ http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/6887100/ Thu, 27 Oct 2005 23:24:36 PDT
Turns out I am a coeliac, pronounced (see-liac). This basically means I can't eat gluten.
Where does gluton come from you might ask?
Well if you don't know, it comes from wheat, that means bread, pasta, pizza, most cerials, everything made out of flour and many other things which you'd never expect such as mars bars and soy sauce.
They are all now poisen to me.

It's not so bad really, there are special gluten free breads and pasta's available for people like me, although they are expensive.
The worst part of it is the inconvinience, especially when I want to eat out.
Now before I can eat anything I have to thouroughly read the the lable and ingredients list, it's a little annoying, but I'm sure I'll get used to it. *sigh*

Other than that I also have an infection in my bowel, I guess I'm just lucky. ^_^;
But it's easily treated so I can be thankful for that.

Well that's about the news, exams are soon and as much as I love my course I will be glad to finally finish, reveive my certificate and relax for a bit.
K people, I'll be around...
:hug: ]]> *turusai Back in Australia and... http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/6776326/ http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/6776326/ Sat, 15 Oct 2005 16:20:35 PDT The other day I finally got to go to the hospital to get a couple of tests done to try and sort out what's wrong with me.

These tests included a colonoscapy and a gastroscapy (I think that's how you write them).
I was really scared cause I'd never been put to sleep before, and I didn't like having a needle stuck into the vein in my hand and having to wear one of those weird white hospital gowns.
After the tests the nurse showed me the photo's which had been taken from inside my stomach and bowel (ikky) and they didn't look too good. :(
Basically they are inflamed and bleeding, they also did a biopsy wich will tell us exactly what's wrong and we should have the results in a couple of weeks, so that's a plus.
I'm hoping it's not a really serious problem and it can be treated with some medication or something. So I have my fingers crossed.

Well that is about the biggest news, apart from arriving back from my trip to Japan which was great. Maybe I should post a photo or two...
I'll see.

Ok, well wish me luck and I'll let everyone know how that turns out.
Bye everyone, I should have a couple of new pics up soon. Bye. :hugs: ]]> *turusai Almost time to go home... http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/6639704/ http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/6639704/ Fri, 30 Sep 2005 04:38:47 PDT Well I have been here in Japan for some time now, almost 2 weeks.
But this Sunday I am going home! I`m so sad but so happy at the same time.
I`ll miss Japan like mad but it`s certainly worth it to get back to Eli ^_^
We`ll be come back here together soon anyway.

Well today was very busy, We left our hotel at about 8 this morning and I just got home, at 8 at night. So my day has been very full, and my feet are killing me! Yesterday was also busy for me, I went around Tokyo all by myself and managed to work out the public transport ^.^
I went to Ginza, then to Akihabara, both were amasing, and bloody enormous!

Today we went to kitakamakura, which is a quiet city about an hour out of Tokyo.
It was really beautiful, totally different from the city in Tokyo, full of forests and shrines and temples, and it was so quiet.
We stayed there most of the day and hiked around visiting various temples, we must have walked about 8km or so by the end.

One of the nicest places we visited was at the end of a long hike up a mountain through lots of forest. When we got there I couldn`t help laughing because even though it was a difficult place to get to there was still vending machines at the end! It was funny, so I took a photo of them.

Well Tokyo is just so enormous it`s really unbeilevable, there is just city in every direction as far as you can see, I`m amased I haven`t gotten lost yet.
I love it here too, though I would rather live in Hokkaido, Sapporo is a big enough city for me.

So for now I`m saying bye again, I`ll update soon, if anyone has anything they want to ask me feel free, I`ll do my best to answer any questions anyone has about Japan. ^_~
Now I`m off for a bath, which is bound to be like 50 degrees by now, I don`t know how they do it! It burns! ]]> *turusai would you beleive it!? http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/6539621/ http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/6539621/ Sun, 18 Sep 2005 17:51:41 PDT

I can say, everyone is so nice, and funny, things are a little complicated, with the language barrier, but I understand most things.
This morning I had a very interesting japanese shower. Basically, the room IS the shower. The house is very beautiful and very clean.
The food is nothing short of amasing and I`m loving every second I`m here!

Just thinking about leaving makes me want to cry :(
so I will enjoy every day!

I have to get going now, we`re leaving soon.

On the subject of japanese my trip to Japan isn't far away, just a couple more months, I have paid the deposit and sent off for my passport, I really need to pack in the studying now!

Well, that's about all, my dog is insanely cute and cheese is oh so good, In fact, lunch calls.

Bye all. ^_^ ]]> *turusai Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/5159990/ http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/5159990/ Fri, 22 Apr 2005 16:29:04 PDT Broadband! broadband!! braodband!!! I've been waiting for sooooo long for this! now the computer is faster than I am and I don't have to wait several days for a simple picture to load! < May have exagurated about the day’s thing.

But Broadband is great! I realise EVERYONE in the world had it before me but I couldn't give a crap sack about that now, for now I am blessed with the bless-ed gift that is BROADBAND!

oh my god!oh my god!oh my god
I never want to leave this seat, so Erin if you drop by and see a weird coloured lump in front of the computer which smells funny, chances are it's me after several days of not moving, Imay even grow mold...ew!

I'm still so happy! My lungs won't even function properly!
Nyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!


Ok, it's calm down time...
On another less exciting, sadder subject one of my Japanese teachers has recently undergone major surgery on her neck. And so I'm going to draw a pic for her. I asked one of my other teachers what she likes and its cats! What is it with cats?! So I'm now on a mission to draw a very cute feline, drat.

So soon I will submit a very cute cat pic against all odds (cause I don't like cats!)

Hazzah Broadband is great!!!
*Does the happy dance*

K bye people! ]]> *turusai YES! I LIVE! http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/4731588/ http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/4731588/ Sat, 05 Mar 2005 00:32:31 PST
I even put up a new pic! ^o^ Joice!

I've been soooo busy with TAFE I haven't had time to draw much... at all...
but since this one was for a special occation I had to make an exception.

Things are going really well at the moment, I'm super tired though cause the jap course I'm doing is intensive and it's a lot of work. I spend all my time revising and practasing the copious amounts of work the teachers cram into every class.

Speaking of the teachers they're brilliant. I have three teachers and they're all insanely hyper and really nice.

Anyway stuff is good and busy ^_^
I'll try to visit DA more if I can, we'll see...

Byeeeeeeeeeeeee...
*hugs for everyone* ]]> *turusai All done. http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/4425476/ http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/4425476/ Thu, 27 Jan 2005 02:29:05 PST
I still can't believe that I got in O.o

Well, I start on the 21st of Febuary but there are some orientation days with free food and stuff so I'm going to check them out.
I can't wait to start...

*hugs all, even those who do not know me*
:glomp:

Anywho, I'm back on DA now so all is well, and I have some good news...ready...
I GOT INTO THE JAPANESE COURSE I APPLIED FOR!!!
I'm so happy, I found out yesterday.

So I'll be studying Jap for the next year and at the end I can go over to Japan for 15 days :D

*does the victory dance*

Another good bit of news my boyfriend also got into his first preference course which is a double degree at RMIT in computer science and... something else really smart (which I can't remember), his course goes for 5 years! o.O

K, love and many :glomp: to all. ]]> *turusai The waiting game http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/4120816/ http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/4120816/ Tue, 21 Dec 2004 16:01:32 PST
I only got an enter of 61.65 :( It's ok though cause I've applied for a TAFE course in Japanese.
I went and had an interview and now I have to wait to find out if I got in. I hope I did, the course only runs for a year and at the end I can go to Japan for a few weeks ^o^

So yeah, wish me luck peoples, I'll let you know if I got in or not...

:glomp: to all. ]]> *turusai Almost there...but what then... http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/3739209/ http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/3739209/ Wed, 03 Nov 2004 02:09:31 PST
I don't know what to do after this. I'm kind of worried about being alone and out of school, it's a really weird feeling.
I'm hoping to learn japanese and eventually stay over there for a while and teach english.

I feel so strange, thinking back on all the years I've spent in an easy going, comfortable enviroment with so many people to help me, and now suddenly I have to be independent.

I can't imgine what my life will be like, I'm scared to think I won't be able to make it on my own.

Well my blabbering is done for today ^^
Thanks for reading. ]]> *turusai he he...I'm back http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/3542824/ http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/3542824/ Fri, 08 Oct 2004 14:03:07 PDT
Well I'm glad to be back, I've got heaps of new deviations to check out so I'll get to it.

Thankyou everyone who viewed my page. ^^

I'm on holidays. Automatic yay you might think?
nooooooooo, I didn't do enough school work at school and I wont get good enough marks unless I work all holidays. ><

God, when will I learn?! I have no sence of anything and I keep getting myself into trouble...I need help.
My addiction for da hasn't helped.

So I don't know when I'll be submitting something new, could be a long time.

Until then, I appreciate all the hits and all the new comments.
Thanks to everyone who visits me. ^^

I best be off before I end up on here for too long and my guilt manifests and eats me from the inside out.

Bye. :glomp: - to all. ]]> *turusai :3 http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/3360529/ http://turusai.deviantart.com/journal/3360529/ Tue, 14 Sep 2004 07:42:06 PDT
I think I'm getting a little better, but still no where near as good as I want to be. Oh well, one can only practise.

I have a day off tomorrow but I must do home work, damn that dreaded stuff >< So I'll be busy ALL day... oh so sad :(

But I'm still happy.
