-Read two books for school; make a big journal thing for one
-Find a way to earn 23 and a half more service hours (curse you Pre-IB)
-Make the two remaining chibi pics
-Knit a sweater (don't give me that look...)
-Learn to sew so I can finish what I've started
-Make my friend's Gaia layout
-Improve my nonexistant animation skills
-Complete various drawings

...Why do I do this to myself? Urrrngh.

Well, at least I finished the dragon sculpture. Go look at it in the gallery. NOW!

...I guess you could continue reading this entry if for some reason you find it compelling. I remain doubtful, though.

So, yeah, I probably won't be churning out pictures or leisurely spending hours browsing dA for some time.
Also: website not happening. At least for some time. I haven't the time nor inspiration to make one at the moment. I'd really have nothing interesting to say, besides.

But I'll still be lurking around here from time to time, gawking at your arts. Pinky swear.

I'll start going through my messages and deviations and such...

How about a meme in closing? This one's from .
----------------------------------
1. Choose a few of your own characters. Five at the most.
2. Make them answer the following questions.
3. Then tag three people.
4. Feel free to go ahead and add some questions yourself!!

OCs:
~Wee the axolotl
~Tweek the velociraptor
~Cornelius the cat
(They're the only ones worthy enough. -_-)

How old are you?

Wee: Fifteen. Yosh.
Tweek: Nineteen. *velociraptorgrin*
Cornelius: I do not feel at ease revealing my age. I am aged is all I will say.

What's your height?

Wee: Seven inches.
Tweek: Um, I think about like five-four. I'm fricking short. T_T
Wee: *slaps Tweek* Shut up.
Cornelius: Five-foot-seven-inches, if memory serves.

Are you a virgin?

Wee: YES.
Tweek: ...
Cornelius: ... Why must these questions be so personal?

Who's your mate/spouse?

Tweek: Currently dating a coelophysis. Her name's Izz. ^^
Wee: Nobody. Just fine with that.
Cornelius: ...

Do you have any kids?

Wee: No... *glare*
Tweek: As far as I know, nope... hrmm...
Cornelius: No.

What's your favourite food?

Tweek: Nachos with all the fix-ins! Delicious!
Wee: Nachos sound good about now.
Tweek: Yeah, don't they? Let's go make some nachos.
Wee: Yeah.
Tweek: Hey, Cornelius, wanna have some nachos with us?
Cornelius: I'll pass. I remain sated from my lunch.
Tweek: *cocks head to side*

What's your favourite ice cream flavor?

Tweek: Hmm, chocolate chip. *stuffs face with nachos*
Wee: *gulp* Ice cream does not do wonders for the metabolism of exothermic creatures.
Tweek: ...Where the hell do you guys learn these words?!
Wee: I dunno.
Cornelius: I like vanilla bean, personally.

Have you killed anyone?

Wee: No. Most people would say I'm just a sweet little axolotl. :3
Tweek: Nobody of importance...
Wee: >_>
Cornelius: *ears perk*
Tweek: Kidding, kidding! No murdering here. Gawd, can't you guys take a joke?
Cornelius: Dare I presume that I am influencing your sense of humor, Tweek?
Tweek: Yeah, I think you said something like that once, now that I think about it.
Cornelius: ...*clears throat* Carry on, then.

Do you hate anyone?

Wee: Not at the moment. I highly dislike plenty of people, but I don't hate them.
Tweek: Yeh, but you wouldn't know 'em.
Cornelius: No longer.
Wee: ...Knowing you, I'm concerned by that response.

Have any secrets?

Wee: That's a secret.
Tweek: Smartass.
Cornelius: Of course I do. Do you truly expect me to divulge them?

Do you love anyone?

Tweek: Loves me some Izz. <3
Wee: Muh friends and muh family and all that cheese.
Cornelius: ...Yes. She was lovely.
Wee: .o___o.

What is your job?

Wee: None yet.
Tweek: I work at the Taco Bell down the road.
Cornelius: I'm an editor for the most part.

Boy or girl?

Wee: I assume you mean gender? I'm a girl. Hopefully you knew th... ]]> ~wee-axolotl http://wee-axolotl.deviantart.com/journal/15694968/ http://wee-axolotl.deviantart.com/journal/15694968/ Tue, 27 Nov 2007 14:52:02 PST

-100 pic challenge [link] : Like I'm gonna get around to that any time soon.


In the meantime, I'll do the meme with which tagged me.

I don't feel like tagging people. Pilfer if you so desire!

1. The first ten people to comment on this will get a chibi drawn by me...
2. ...as long as they post this in their journal, offering to draw chibis. See how it'll go on and on? (Well, I guess if ya want... I don't really care now.)
3. I'll draw any one character you like, be it your own character, an anime/videogame/cartoon character, a furry, whatever. It'll be in my own style, however. (The only sort of example I have would be this: [link] but I do usually draw my chibis more chibi-ish. Ya know, like two to three heads tall and a heckuva lot cuter. But just tell me how you want it.)
4. The chibi will be rendered in The GIMP, unlike example preceeding.
5. I'll post the chibis as I complete them, unless I get like a crapload of requests. But that's very unlikely.
Alrighty, the list so far!!
1. (it'll be a surprise)
2. (recreation of Smash Bros. Brawl screenshot of Snake grabbing Ike)

[When tagged, the tagged individual must post a journal listing 6 strange/interesting/unknown facts about themselves]

[The tagged sop must then describe the 'rules OF THE TAGGING' from the 'Holy Book of TAGGING']

[The final step: Six shall be the number of the tagging. Six no more no less. Seven is unacceptable and five only if then preceding to the number six [Monty Python ]

Hrm, let's see here. I'm a pretty boring person as far as odd facts go.

1. I don't have a single female cousin. It's a bit depressing at times.
2. My bedroom's walls are painted lime green.
3. I currently have two scars on my left knee. I got one at an amusement park when I was little, and the other this summer at a hospital. And no, it wasn't from surgery.
4. I'm left-handed. Yeah, most people I know in real life are aware of this, but I'm running out of ideas.
5. Um... I've never been stung by a bee, wasp, or any other vespid.
6. I frackin' love Cesar salads.

See, I'm durn boring.

I tag...




I think that's all... They don't have to do it if they don't feel like it.

In other news, I went to ~Bandana-Pheonyx's house yesterday. We hatched some demented ideas, including this one ever-so-awesomely illustrated by her: [link]
Also, my little cousin's coming to my house to stay the week tomorrow night. He lives in Michigan. I made him a Mothra figurine to paint. He likes Mothra. Maybe I'll be able to take a picture of the finished... collaboration? I also made and painted a Godzilla figurine for him as an example, which I'm rather proud of. He likes Godzilla too. I'll try to take a picture of that as well.
I'm feeling redundant today. And tired.

When we get home, my mom takes the bag out from under the car.
It's a Meijer bag.
When we lived in Michigan, we'd always go to Meijer to get Faygo. There is not a single Meijer here.
