So uh... due to the unnatural influx of viewers on my dA, my pageviews have gone up... unnaturally. And what do you know? I almost have one thousand views o.O yay. So whoever hits the 1000th pageview, I will draw that person whatever they ask. It can be original characters, fanart, etc. Just no anthro or animals please... I'm not very good at those. Or anything you would label mature.

You should do a printscreen and note me. Of course, if you're like... the 1001 or 1002, I am willing to do a kiriban for you too if no one else has noted me. Ok then, good luck :P

+++++

Nextly... For those of you who don't know who Libba Bray is, I strongly recommend you go read her books. SOOOOO GOOD. They escape words. *droool* For those of you who have read A Great and Terrible Beauty and Rebel Angels, go to her livejournal [link] and read! She sending her last book to the editors and it's making me uber estatic. O_O

SAERAN- you HAVE to read the hilarious dialogue she's written. All the characters are in therapy... lol... it doesn't get much better than this. (except the next book).

Libba Bray:

INT. THERAPIST'S OFFICE DAY

(A comfortable office painted in soothing greens. Chairs have been arranged in a semi-circle. A THERAPIST sits in a large leather chair with a notepad. Her group is comprised of VARIOUS FICTIONAL CHARACTERS from a book long in progress, THE SWEET FAR THING.)

THERAPIST: So, it's good that we could all meet today. I understand you're having some trouble with the author of your book?
MRS. NIGHTWING: It isn't our trouble. She's the one who should be cleverer.
THERAPIST: (nodding) Ummm.
ANN: She's rewritten the ending eight times.
THERAPIST: Must feel very frustrating.
FELICITY: (texting) I think we should do her in.
CIRCE: Second it.
THERAPIST: Gemma? Any thoughts about that?
GEMMA: (smiling) There's a snogging scene. I'm in it.
THERAPIST: I see. So you feel satisfied with the direction the book has taken?
GEMMA: For the most part. My brother Tom is still a horse's ass, though.
ANN: Second it.



... I hope she doesn't mind me stealing from her blog. Oh well, it's like I'm advertising for her. :aww:


NOW GO READ OR ELSE.

+++++

Taken from :iconnillia: 's journal. I have to try it... I found it very amusing. [link]

As a result…the “Character Is” project is OPEN.

Rules and guidelines:
You can do this for as many characters as you want.
You can do the same character as somebody else. Your entry will still be listed. HOwever, it will be competeing with the other entries of the same character to get a panel pasted into the Final Showcase.(See next paragraph)
When you finish the picture and post it, please link to this journal in the description.


Format:
It should be pretty much the same format as Kagome Is. Three columns that read up to down. The first picture in column one should state the character’s name and role in society. The next three should address the character’s IC reaction to common AU absurdities. The first picture in the second column can address whatever you want. The first picture in the third column should depict the character’s love interest/s or lack thereof. The pictures under it should show the character’s reaction to all the crazy slash pairings.
The top three pictures should be nice, but the bottom nine can be more simplistic and silly.
You don't have to follow this format exactly, but try to stay close to it.

I got a new printer! And it's so beeeeeauuutiful it's like my new baby. *ahem* So now I can sell my own prints for NDK this fall. Geez... I wonder if people are willing to buy stuff from our table... the one :iconshadowbucket: and I are renting. Anywho, then printer- it's a bit of a workout to print stuff, because my computer is upstairs and the printer's downstairs, so everytime I want a picture, I have to run downstairs and up. Fyi, I've been doing that a lot today, since I'm testing and trying to figure out what properties/sizes/etc. are the best and cheapest (save ink!). So yeah, I'm pretty excited for NDK. I don't think I'll be dressing up though, since I really don't have a costume this year... uuummmmmm... Maybe I'll just look cute or something, wear my aviator goggles :P

So aside from that... I feel like I should be doing STUFF. Like work on college stuff, check my email, finish my summer assignments... blah. They're nagging at me like a pack of hellhounds. I just... GAH... want school papers out of my room. So I don't see them anymore. Which reminds me, is being an escapist such a bad thing? Some people make such a big deal out of it. They're like "omigod, escapists are losers. They're LYING to themselves, blah blah blah..." I don't think they're bad. I mean, if the lie is for the greater good... like personal happiness. Why shouldn't people take a break and forget? Three years of high school (and probably this upcoming year) has taught me that life is CRAP when you're tired and still have hours of work to do. I get discouraged, but stuff like writing and drawing for fun gives me hope x_x So yes, I like to empty my mind of reality and think about drugs. Just kidding! Not drugs, but maybe something like... oh, I dunno, Aramus Inc., or a book, etc. Oh, and Last Exile. Always Last Exile :heart: So I guess in light of that, not to sound lame or anything, but Katherine (character from Aramus) and company really are my Advil. Maybe not solve my problems, but ease the headache for a bit, until I feel well enough to tackle that college essay. Or that thing called my brother. Friends are lovely too, but I'm such a reclusive person inside (by choice...)

...And...I'm hungry... (that was a really long rant)

... is up! You guys should go check it out! It has chapter one in it, and I will be adding more laterrrr. And you can also make me happy by leaving a comment! :heart: XD

[link]

I also joined this online rp game called FlyFF. It's fun and kind of addiction. You guys should go search for it on Google and download it for free. I think it's pretty safe, and you download it from the sight that makes it, so it's legal. My character is cute, I think I will have to start drawing fanart of her.

I'm not dead yet!

...From Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

Writing a short entry to point out that "I'm not dead yet." I've been busy as usual, but by the end of May, I'll really be done! Yay summer vacation! *zomgfaintsaway*. I'm working on two pieces right now, but both are only halfway finished. Oh yeah, and there was also Prom. Euh... Not really that great, in my opinion. The whole affair felt kind of meanlingless; which makes me feel sad for the girls who get pregnant on Prom night. I liked my hair the best. I was inspired by Hermoine's from the fourth movie (and I dislike her too!).

Now, to make this post more meaningful, let's consider this question:

What was your favorite childhood movie?

Mine was definitely Jurassic Park. I was five when I saw it, and I loved the Velociraptors (except when they bit people...). I even built a mini "Jurassic Park" with my legos and dinosaurs.

So... nothing much going on in life.... Still very busy (and I'm smart enough to be wasting time posting a journal entry... stupid fool...) I watched Little Miss Sunshine yesterday and it was very much worth my time. I'm also in the mood to be at an anime convention right now... Oh, and another random note- I went prom dress shopping today, but didn't find a dress. There was a pink one that fit, but it seriously looked like a Barbie gown blown up to full size, and I figured I didn't want to look like some version of swan lake Barbie...

A couple of the people I watch had this on, so I thought, why not?

1. Who are you?
2. Are we friends?
3. When and how did we meet?
4. How have I affected you?
5. What do you think of me?
6. What's the fondest memory you have of me?
7. How long do you think we will be friends?
8. Do you love me?
9. Do you have a crush on me?
10. Would you kiss me?
11. Would you hug me?
12. Physically, what stands out?
13. Emotionally, what stands out?
14. Do you wish I was cooler?
15. On a scale of 1-10, how hot am I? (ya'll better say 10!!)
16. Give me a nickname and explain why you picked it.
17. Am I loveable?
18. How long have you known me?
19. Describe me in one word.
20. What was your first impression?
21. Do you still think that way about me now?
22. What do you think my weakness is?
23. Do you think I'll get married?
24. What makes me happy?
25. What makes me sad?
26. What reminds you of me?
27. If you could give me anything what would it be?
28. How well do you know me?
29. When's the last time you saw me?
30. Ever wanted to tell me something but couldn't?
31. Do you think I could kill someone?
32. Do you think our friendship is getting stronger/weaker/or staying the same?
33. Do you feel that you could talk to me about anything and I would listen?
34. Are you going to put this on your DA and see what I say about you?
