Looks like I got some plans ahead of me. I had a wonderful weekend filled with shopping and sillieness.

John and I hung out all day- it was very nice. We spent the day in Springfield. We decided to check out the Halloween store that had opened up for the season- I had to find a pirate outfit to go with my pirate jacket and hat which I had purchased last year (due to work deciding last minute not to let us wear costumes that year, and me having to work all night that night, I was thoroughly pissed. I have off this year, and plan on using it!!!!)

Found a decent finishing touch to my costume... thank God.

John wasn't very enthused about looking for anything... But we went to the mall and he fell in love with a Hellboy costume. (He's such a big kid. One of the many reasons I love him.) So we will be a pirate and Hellboy. ^_^ We're having a party at my house that night, so things will be fun.

HOWEVER, we both took notice of a World of Warcraft Orc costume... which was super badass. And yes, it was World of Warcraft brand. I was in sheer awe. And they carried a couple of WoW weapons, too!!! It was too cool. I might go back monday just to get a stupid weapon. I'm such a nerd. It was only 12 bucks for that badass sword... lol.

I will be adding more content to DA in the near future. For now, however, I must get some sleep. I have to get up early cause John wants to go out for breakfast. We haven't seen each other in weeks, and it was so refreshing. He has worked so hard for us I think he's making himself sick.

Later. ^_^

I know I'm not really too active unless I make things. I've been fairly busy. But not really. Just work, and everything in between.

I'm thinking I might look for another job. I dunno. It's just stressful anymore. Hopefully it'll get better. Or I can just finish writing my book and get published and make millions of bucks and finally have money so that my parents can retire and I can take care of everybody and get that new badass 2010 Camero... *Drools* The 2010 Camero and 2010 Mustangs are my dreamcars... And Mom's getting the Mustang for her birthday.

Alas, I am prolly not good enough to get published. /shrugs Oh well. I can try, right?

I'm still looking forward to the New Moon movie that'll be coming out. I'm not too much of a Harry Potter fan. I stopped reading the books after the 4th one... I never had the time back in high school to read anything I would enjoy. Unless it was an R.A Salvatore book... about Drizzt... yesh, I love Drizzt. Best character ever.

I saw they started setting up the local town fair this afternoon when I took Molly to walfart. Picked up some things i needed, along with things i didn't need.

My cat, Sassy, is 68 years old in cat years. Holy cow. She's 13. And she's my baby. :3 My lazy, sleep-all-the-time, lounge on my art, and jump on my lap as I play WoW kitty. I remember when my parents took me to pick her out. I'd just gotten promoted to the next gradelevel back in Catholic school. 2nd grade I think. And I had begged and begged for a cat.

I found out my old school got shut down. Kind of a bummer, but that Catholic school had started to go downhill once the principal retired and was replaced with some super bitchey dike. (pardon my language, but I'm only speaking the truth...) Lots of drama, but thats's a different story entirely...

I'm ranting. Which means I'm tired. It's 4am. Sleep is.... good... zzzZZZzzz....

I think it's time I actually finished F.A before I set off and begin writing a spinoff, right? I know Aunorn is a badass... but I have to finish Zepher's story before I feel comfortable with Aunorn anymore. Though I love my <3silver haired hunka-killin machine.<3

I work up extra early this morning... which is a rarity for me, with work being as hard as it is on me anymore. I can't wait til August. My mentor proposed the idea of me going into management. (Not really like salaried, but I'm working on it. They make good money, and trying to decide between nursing and teaching, working sales might be the end result if I don't decide quickly.) I think they are going to open up a brand new department manager's position... which is a nice raise in itself... I make some pretty decent money, considering. I think I could live on my own if I worked full-time hours. But I will take advantage of being at home... I'll be gone next year, living with We'll be married. I am more then excited. I guess I will write Fallen Angel... and see if it inspires me to write something else.

Yesterday, I logged on to compassion.com If you ever plan on sponsoring a child, this is the organization to sponsor through. They give you so much detailed information, and know everything about the children that you sponsor. You can pick a child based on anything you'd like- age, gender, country, length without a sponsor, etc.

Of course, being me, I do not have it in me to pick just one child... I looked through the children, and it just tore me apart to try to pick just one... so I decided to let Compassion choose for me. And I made sure to checkmark the box that would select a child who needed sponsorship the most. I ended up with Milon, from India. He is 12 years old. I am supposed to recieve a packet in arond 15 days with more detailed information on the program, how things work, etc. I am excited to have the opportunity to help someone else.

The best part is, I am excited to write my first letter to Milon. I want to be a sponsor who is very involved, and I want Milon to know that no matter what, there is hope, and that he can become anything he would like to be reguardless of his situations.

As for how I'm going to go about doing this... I've got mysef a large canvas, 22"x28". I'm sketching up a rough draft now that will include the guildmembers that were in the instance. This will take a while. A long while, especially since I am going to try to work with acrylic paint. I'll experiment and see how that turns out.

So far, I'm still thinking about how I want everything to look, and what style I want to draw (I go between anime and a more realistic style but still cartoonish. I'm still debating). I wanted to draw this digitally at first- but I don't think I have the patience to learn the line tool for a project this large. I get paid tomorrow, so I will be doing some paint shopping since i know the shades I need.

All right. I think I'm done ranting here for now. (boy am I an odd cookie, or what?)

To make a long story short- I was inspired to write this because of the episode of Tyra that I watched. I know that it's wierd... but.. I am writing about it. I am actually excited to write this... creepilly enough. However, just because I write about it does not mean I am like that- I just want to make this clear.

Aside from that, my fiance and I are pushing our wedding back a bit more. We are thinking about January 2010... but if he does't have a secure teaching job that supplies a steady income we will wait a little longer. We want to make sure we are financially secure before we get married. I love him so much, and sometimes I don't think he realizes how much I appreciate him. I never thank him enough... I'll have to make a mental note to thank him more often.

(or at least what I have so far...) Before I post chapter 1 (which is still being modified... I should have it up tomorrow, or possibly later this evening, depending on if time allows.) I have a bad habit of my tenses... so if you see this let me know.

I really would appreciate any and all feedback possible on this, as I really do love writing this. I think I will finish this before I finish writing my other work in progress. But, work calls... rawr!

**EDIT**

All right... I am so absorbed in re-writing the first chapter that it might take a little bit longer then I had anticipated. Hopefully I shall bring the first Chapter of Fallen Angel to you between now and Sunday. But for now, I must sleep.. for writing this chapter has zombified me, and I must continue it later. I am excited.

I'm still trying to get used to using prismacolor pencils.. :S The lady at hobby lobby gave it to me for half off just because she was in a good mood and they were expensive... so I have the 120 ct pencil box set. Too bad they are so expensive. They blend so well, and seem easier to use then crappy crayolas... yet can use them and it looks amazing anyway. >.>

I am actually in the middle of writing again! I never thought it was possible for a two-year writers block to be broken, but... for some strange reason, the words seem to flow right out from beneath my fingertips as of late... and I like it! So far, it's just a heap of rubble waiting for me to sort through. So many ideas... I just jot them down and I shall decide what I really want later.... My dream is to actually write a full-length fantasy novel, and have it published.... Some dream, huh. xD

I will not put my story up on my deviantart, might not be a good idea. Sorry all.

I have decided that I am just going to give up playing WoW, or Guild Wars and actually focus on my artwork and writings this summer. I came to this conclusion last night while Fatelin and I hung out last night. Yesterday was pretty depressing, so she cheered me up as best she could.

Last night, fatelin and I decided we are going to do a series of collaborations together. The first we created lat night, so I'll post up the sketch before I color it with my Prismas... The famed Zepher Aregus has been re-vamped (all puns intended...) I drew up the smexyness that is Zepher, and Fatelin scrougned up some clothes to draw on him. So I guess I'll draw the character and she'll draw on their clothes... kinda like paper dolls, I guess... but Fatelin is wonderful at clothing design... so Zeph's new outfit is awesome.

I was in the middle of making a few gifts for but I quit them for the time being. Don't know if I will ever finish them. Prolly not.

So... I'm working on a painting of Zepher... kind of copied from the deviation Fatelin and I made because I love his facial expression so much. So sad! *squeals*

I'm a bit nervous, because I don't know any of John's friends all that well... not to mention, I don't even think I met his friends Seth and Amanda (who are getting married) so I feel like the odd one out, considering. I hope I'm not an intrusion, John really does want me to go.

Holy crap! I get married next year! *gasp* And I haven't planned ANYTHING. BAH! CompleteSpartan (my fiance John) and I have been looking through dates, and so far we might pick September 23, 2009. We want to try for September, but we weren't sure if we wanted it at the begining of the month, or at the end of the month. Hopefully it will be the 23rd!

I don't want a big wedding- if more people took the time to plan the marriage instead of the wedding, the divorce rate would be at an alltime low! All I really want is a pretty dress, and my John, and God giving us His blessing!

But that means I need to go dress shopping in a couple of months... so I have to hop to and get in some exercise... maybe not eat chocolate ever again.. *tears*


I guess I will keep track of my progress on here... since no one here knows what I look like, or how much fatness I have, I won't feel so embarrassed about it! xD So... my goal before my own wedding next year is to lose between 30-35 lbs. Can I do it? I dunno... I'll find out... *grimaces*

So I'm not too concerned over how my english is unless it's a formal writing... pffffffft.

I am finally getting back into drawing. Kind of. I have off school for the summer, so I figured I had better draw or do something I enjoy that's semi-creative. I know I am not a professional grade artist... I envy professional grade artists.. *sniffle* but that doesn't mean I can't practice. ;3

I'm finishing up my pre-req courses, and start the main courses next semester. John is finishing his Bachelor's in teaching.

Not only did we get our new puppy Duckie, but we ended up picking up two new kittens to add to the family as well. Our American Shorthair, Jack (he acts like Jack Sparrow, and has his eyes...) we found him wandering around in the parkinglot of our local grocery store in the rain. My Mom was so scared he was going to get hit by a car, so we picked him up and took him home. My youngest sister, Molly, is his keeper. The other, Pickles, (she seems to be a mix, definately looks like a himilayan mix) was picked up for free when they gave away a litter of kittens outside my work. I picked her up, and fell in love with her baby blue eyes. John and I bought her some stuff, and my other sister, Melissa, has her. My cat, Sassy, tolerates them. As for Duckie.... he lives outside. It seems he likes it better out there.

I have taken a long break from writing. I think I am going to start working on my story now, or at least think of an outline to follow... I work better when I plan things out... instead of just winging it. And I might just write some more "emo shite" poetry, as one user commented. I took one look at their gallery and laughed because all they can draw are stick figures. Can someone say jealousy issues?

Anyway, I think I am going to have myself some fun.

Whilst I was onmy lunchbreak, I noticed that in the parkinglot, they were giving away free puppies. So, I went home, begged my mom over getting us a dog, and we decided to call it duckie, male, or female (since that's what my sister wanted to name him, so i let her name him since i got to name our cat.)

Duckie is only 2 months old, wieghing at 3 pounds. He is the smallest puppy ever. He's a Border Collie/Beagle mix, dominantly beagle. Looks just like a beagle, short coat and all, except his coat is patterened like a collie's. And he has the most beautiful seagreen eyes. When I can I'l upload a picture of him. He's taken a liking to everyone, and he's such a good natured dog. I took him in for his worming and vaccinations, despite the fact the girl told us he already was. She had lied anyway, and I don't want my cat, Sassy, to get sick from something Duckie had. He's gonna be a housedog, so I'm in the middle of housetraining ("potty training..." eeeek) him.

But I am so excited. I finally have a puppy!

I know I am going to create something new today, but I am unsure of what I should make. :/ I might decide to draw another sketch of Luria, seeing as I've been roleplaying again lately. I guess I must have lost my spark, since my posts haven't been filled with as much ummpf! they once were.

And I've decided that if I feel like using a journal, it'll be this and not myspace, because too many people know me irl on there who I really do not like... and don't feel like them prodding their noses into my buisiness... Only Fatelin has my deviant art, because she's the only friend of mine who gets on here! LOL. Anyway, I had better go. I'm wasting more precious time that could be spent with a pencil in hand!!

I talked to Fatelin (Also known as my best friend from highschool and beyond, Mel... lol). She's gotten me into a writing mood. She also sent me a story she had written with one of her other friends. I like it so far. She writes so much about vampires, and whatnot. She's the person who got me into writing about them, or using them as a roleplay chracter. I created Zepher originally to be the badassed villian of our stories together, but I loved him so much as a character, that I had to evolve him into something a bit more.

Other than vampires, lol, I also write a bit of fantasy. I do have a shortstory posted here on deviant art, which is a little more current than Fallen Angel, called "The Guardian of Tometh." After re-reading it a few times, I've decided I want to take the main character of that story, and further her history, lol. I might even give the short story a little more of a plot, and possibly go in and add more to it. It was originally created for my Creative Writing class for the 2000 word short story assignment, but I was so into writing it, that I forgot it was going to be submitted for a grade. @.@

Well, That's enough for now. ]]> *xxanixx http://xxanixx.deviantart.com/journal/8884129/ http://xxanixx.deviantart.com/journal/8884129/ Sat, 27 May 2006 11:17:08 PDT

I am excited. Today is the Graduation ceremony. I have been out of school since Weds... and have been anticipating this moment. I have a scholarship that allows me to go to school for free for two years.... that's awesome. The only thing I have to pay for is half of the book price.

I am scared. Probably because this is my life begining... it's going by so fast, and now I can finally get started....

Mom and Dad bought me a lap top. I get it here in a couple of hours.... *jumps for joy* .... at the grad party they are throwing for me. Graduation is tonight. Woooo!

Yes... last night we had quite a few tornadoes. I live in one of the cities that had the most damage done. Fortunately, no damage occurred to my home. The bad news: Two of my classmates lost their homes. One of them being one of my two best friends.

Nicole's roof was ripped off completely,and she's in a bind. My friend Amanda's house was demolished completely. The front of her house is inside of her living room, the whole thing just... squished. I'm not sure if she's all right or not. If she was hurt, Charlie's friend (Charlie is her younger brother) would have told my sister and I about it. He told us about her house, and all. I knew her house had been hit hard, because I had called both Fatelin (who lives less than a mile from Amanda) and Amanda this morning. Fatelin picked up, and she was all right. Her house is in perfect condition. I couldn't get a hold of Amanda bc of the damage her home took. I'll see if I can't go over there and help them with the clean up. It'll be hard, but maybe I can help restore a part of her family's life back. ]]> *xxanixx http://xxanixx.deviantart.com/journal/7940277/ http://xxanixx.deviantart.com/journal/7940277/ Sun, 19 Feb 2006 05:38:59 PST
Dad had a wonderful day. As soon as he got home from work, all he saw was that japanese slot machine we got him. He played it for 2 hours. He ignored his other gifts for half an hour. o.o

He got a few movies, and 2 cakes. Mom, Lissa, Molly, and I were gonna drive up to his work to surprise him with one cake, but the roads are slick from the snow.

Dad enjoyed himself. Lol. I'm sure he'll come upstairs and play the machine as soon as he wakes up. Thank God we're not in a casino... we'd be broke. ]]> *xxanixx http://xxanixx.deviantart.com/journal/7927845/ http://xxanixx.deviantart.com/journal/7927845/ Fri, 17 Feb 2006 17:35:41 PST
I know, my family and I are wierd, but heck, we have fun. That's really all that matters.

We got back from shopping for Dad. We're going to go into his work tomorrow and surprise him with his cake. ^.^ He'll like that. Well... if the roads aren't bad.... if they are, Dad'll have to get his cake at home... o.o

I started drawing some fanart today. I'm drawing Liadan and Bran from Son of the Shadows. I'm sure Sara would appreciate that scene if she ever gets to read that book in the trilogy. It's the best one of the three, I think. The third is just... slow. But I'm only 60 pages or so in it, and I still have 450 left, or something to that effect. It might get better, but Son of the Shadows is definitely my favorite of the three.

We made a stop at Hobby Lobby while we were out... and I spent all I had there, lmao. I had fallen in love with this 92 pc art set... it was cheap, and highly desirable.... plus, the wooden case is great, and easily portable... *rubs her hands together* Colored pencils, metallic colored pencils, paint brushes, sketching pencils, water soluble pencils... and water soluble cakes... ooooooo.... much excitement for me! I also stopped and picked up a couple of art pens, and soft pastels. Yes... I am a nerd.... but who cares?

I am going to go... and finish this fanart... and possibly draw another fanart of Drizzt Do'Urden when I’m finished.... that, or draw something abstract... bwahaha! (Until I get a scanner, no one can see the pwetty pictures... ) ]]> *xxanixx http://xxanixx.deviantart.com/journal/7923046/ http://xxanixx.deviantart.com/journal/7923046/ Fri, 17 Feb 2006 06:42:56 PST Dark Light

Mom and I are going into Springfield with my sisters. We have to finish picking up the final presents for Dad's birthday (he'll be 43 tomorrow). We bought him a big slot machine. He saw it at this antique store, and liked it, so... but, it's Japanese... considering it's highly illegal to own one that takes American currency... Yeah... we're going to start an underground gambling ring! NOT. Sheesh... I'm sure lots of people would do that, though. We have some Yen for Dad to use to get his kicks playing it. He'll love it.. but the question is... where is it going to go?! O.o Mom and Dad'll figure something out.

It looks like Grandpa will be having the surgery before the end of February... Hopefully he makes it through. God will take care of him, that's certain. All I can do is be strong for Grandpa, pray for him, and show him as much love as I can. He needs all of the support he can get right now.

We're going to make a stop at Hobby Lobby... maybe I can buy some more art supplies... like some more acrylics... lol.

I'd best be off. We have to get home before Dad realizes we're at the mall... since he manages the Firestone right outside of it.. O.O *must be sneaky* ]]> *xxanixx http://xxanixx.deviantart.com/journal/7886898/ http://xxanixx.deviantart.com/journal/7886898/ Mon, 13 Feb 2006 18:38:37 PST
Only 10% of his heart can work on it's own... the rest of it is so damaged, that he'd die without that machine... and now he has to go into surgery either to replace the deffibulator, which might be deffective, or replace the battery in it... it's one of those two scenarios... but either way, Grandpa has to go through turmoil... I'm sick of him going through so much pain that he doesn't deserve. It's all Lita's fault... she was the one who caused him to have that heart attack those few months after his huge fall... She didn't get what she wanted, and so she threatened suicide... she took half of those damned pills in that damned bottle... she should know to be a better wife than that. That night, grandpa had to go to the hospital over his heart... She should never scare Grandpa like that... and then next time she pulls any suicide mission, Dad's gonna send her to one of those psychiatric hospitals... grandma has done enough damage... I don't even consider Lita my grandmother... I know I should love her, but it's so hard to love someone who continues to hurt others for their own personal gain. It's sick.

God, I'm just so pissed off about it... I don't want my Grandpa to leave us yet. I want him to be there to see me get married... I want him to be there to see his first great grandchild... but I know it's most unlikely... unless by some miracle... but if it's time for God to take Grandpa, then I'll accept it.

Please keep my Grandpa in your prayers. ]]> *xxanixx http://xxanixx.deviantart.com/journal/7873788/ http://xxanixx.deviantart.com/journal/7873788/ Sun, 12 Feb 2006 12:48:44 PST

My Dad decided to get me Adobe Photoshop later on... BWAHAHA! I am excited. I can finally make stuff colorful! And it will make it look nice!

Anywhoot... my day has been boring... I'm just brainstorming, and sketching... maybe something new will turn out... ]]> *xxanixx http://xxanixx.deviantart.com/journal/7849434/ http://xxanixx.deviantart.com/journal/7849434/ Thu, 09 Feb 2006 17:59:52 PST
All righty... now that the sugar has been shot out of my system... I have added quite a few deviations within the short span of my time here. I know I am not as good at artwork... the greatest strength I have comes within my writing...

I will post my stories here. Hopefully, I can become a published author. Artwork is just a hobby; a small dream that can never take flight unless I sever the chains from the creative caverns of the mind. Until I learn how to do so, writing seems to be the haven where I can cleanse my spirit and sip from the waters of contentment.

Enough of this meaningless babble. I'm off to brainstorm! ]]> *xxanixx http://xxanixx.deviantart.com/journal/7834547/ http://xxanixx.deviantart.com/journal/7834547/ Wed, 08 Feb 2006 05:06:40 PST

I write, and I draw... a lot. I've just recently begun to work on using the wacom, since I have no scanner, hence no posting of my pencil drawings, or paintings for some time... Not until I buy a scanner, that is... but until then, I have to earn the dough.

I am currently a Senior in high school. I plan to attend college after graduation, possibly persuing something within the medical, or journalism field... whichever strikes my fancy first.

I like to hang out with my friends, spend time with my bf, and hang out with family.

I'm developing a strong case of senioritus... I just don't want to do anything in school... lol. My grades are great, but I'm just not motivated... ]]> *xxanixx
