( Fangirling and why I drew them. 8) TL;DR. )
Charming things are charming and cute fairies are adorable. :) I don't usually try to draw cute things because my stories and characters usually don't fall into that category. But it's not like I don't like cute things! D: So here is some evidence of my liking cute things. And drawing it.
Gee willickers. Just what is the ratio of my original art to fanart posts?
I have plowed through about six Roald Dahl books in the span of two days. I read Fantastic Mr. Fox for about the millionth time. I've loved that book since forever. I am hooked on his stuff. I'm not sold on all of his books, but but. His narration. <33

The end of August is coming upon us meaning that my friends' departure times are nigh. Safe flying, my lovelies! ;___;
Sad melodramatic farewells that don't really concern anyone here aside...
The end of August also means the beginning of utter hell. Woohoo.
On another note, I am pretty excited for RO2. I would like to play it one day whenever it gets over here. And I still don't know how to grind.
....Wow, it's 1:00 AM. So much for making toast tomorrow--er, today. :(

Aug. 8th, 2010 05:07 pmI have been feeling like crap for no apparent reason. But there is a reason that I'm suspicious of (and is not apparent!)! Its being, I think my [WARNING: TMI kind of, maybe, I don't think so though, but if you're worried, skip to the next bracketed set of words] period is being regular for once [HERE IT IS IF YOU WANTED IT], but it's only an inkling. I've had this inkling before and it often doesn't turn out to be true in spite of warning signs.
I feel like crap, but I don't think it's depression, so I'll be crossing that off the list for now. I'm not completely over it, but I like to think I'm improving. So! Moving on. I've been moving a lot more quickly through my violin lessons now that I actually practice a bit.
Problem is, I'm having a hard time with my fingerings, and my ear is still not 100% coordinated with the actual tone of notes. There are no frets on the violin, so I'll be playing a piece, and I can think, "Huh, that sounds weird!" when I'm playing, but I don't know if I'm sharp-ing it or flat-ing it. Occasionally, I'm actually playing it right when I think that. OTL;
So I kinda depend on lesson time when my teacher decides to play with me and I can correct my tone based on his. :I And then sometimes I hit the peg on the violin and get a string or so out of pitch and I find myself going "WHY DOES IT ALL SOUND WEIRD." I've tried to tune my violin before, but I'm always slightly off one way or the other. Changes in pitch are so subtle, gosh. I feel like I should take aural lessons one day.
I've been wasting my time on RO again. I still don't have a SL but I made a ninja! I really should get my wits about me and ASK FOR A PARTY LIKE NORMAL PLAYERS. Lordy. How I solo'd to level 48 I don't know. 8( Usually I drew or did other things while she sat down and healed up.
In other news, I REALLY LIKE CHILDREN'S BOOKS. Roald Dahl--MY HERO.
And college is still a pain the rump. Good GRIEF.

Jul. 31st, 2010 09:03 pmMy pleco has an rectal prolapse, which iiiis not good, to be brief. I've been looking up cures and the like, but the medication we supposedly need (something with metronidazole and praziquantel) is something we don't have. It's not a direct cure, but preventing disease would be nice.
His poo has been pretty stringy though, which may be signs of infection already. But it HAS been like this for awhile now (try months), so he's pretty good at putting up against this stuff, I guess...? It's a biit difficult to figure this out because he's super strong. At the very least, there aren't any visible parasitic infections going on. So yeah, meds should be good.
Right now I'm using DOC WELLFISH (8D) aquarium salts, and it looks like he seems to be all right eating spinach (he's not a huge fan of peas), so I guess I'll try to feed him that...although making it sink is difficult. And pooing looks awfully painful for him, so it kinda makes me feel bad, but hopefully it'll be easier.
I'm no pro fish caretaker, but he HAS been with us for eleven years, which is really only half his supposed lifetime. Dying from not being able to poo doesn't sound pleasant at all, so hopefully he won't die from it. :( Here's to hoping his intestines get back in.
Note to self: buy metronidazole fish meds next time I am able.

Now cool things
Jul. 30th, 2010 11:23 pmSo let's start with PHINEAS AND FERB. I really, really like it. It's hilarious and doesn't use silly toilet-related jokes like other kiddie cartoons nowadays. A-and PERRY. I want one. Here are a couple of awesome vids, some in different languages because they sound cool. I never thought I'd watch the Disney Channel again.
"Backyard Beach" Castellano version.
Watched this in Spain. And yes, it convinced me to continue watching. orz;
"Busted" French version.
"Missing my Nemesis" Japanese version.
I find it hilarious that Kouki Miyata is Phineas. Which has nothing to do with the song, but I just thought I'd put it out there.
"Perry's theme"
"Come home, Perry"
Oh, and this episode is pretty hilarious:
Part 1
Part 2
So yeah, I'm very grown up. PEERRYYYYY.
( This art is not as cool as PnF, but it's still goin' in here. )

So while I am still in pain, I am doing my best to GET THIS OUT OF MY SYSTEM. So thank you, Mr. Generic-looking-character. Salute!
And why do documentaries talk about centrifugal force like it's a legitimate force? They're looking for centripetal! Centripetal! D| Ok, off to attempt to sleep.

Jul. 28th, 2010 07:40 pmSO ABOUT MY INNARDS BEING OK.
BAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
I so, sooo lied.
It's my fault for not treating my stomach acid very nicely but hoshiz it hurrrt.
But I'm ok! Still in recovery mode but OK! Yep.
So much for doing work today though. orz;
EDIT: I think this silly little thing is worth giving a plug.
LOOOOOLLLLL.

Jul. 28th, 2010 01:38 amI think my innards have stopped acting up. It feels absolutely weird not being depressed 100% of the time. But it should be a good thing. I drew something to help me get over myself!
( If you're happy and you know it, just smile honestly. )
And yes, I've left getting to messages on the back-burner. Will get to eventually. I really wish I knew how to sleep earlier, but no matter how tired I am, I just can't. go. to. sleep.

Jul. 26th, 2010 12:41 amDrew this silly little thing today.
( Kieden hobbling around again )
I have had a stomachache since this morning (or this afternoon, should I say), and I'll probably have to talk to tired busy people again tomorrow. Jeepers. :/a
Ohh, yeeaah, I watched that one Magic Kaito episode (THERE WAS ONE AND NO ONE TOLD ME 8'(( ). And since I really like Kaito. HAHA. Yeep. Hope another'll pop out one day.

Jul. 25th, 2010 04:13 pmI woke up at 3:00 pm today. :I I didn't sleep terribly late, so I don't know what happened! Well, I watched a movie last night, I hate theater seats, and there were wiggly please-take-it-somewhere-else people next to me who got me dizzy (I'm just sensitive to my environment and they were jerking about, so yeah), so I did feel sick afterwards...but STILL. THREE. PM. My insomnia didn't make me sleep TOO late, iirc.
Oh, and Inception is a great movie. I only wish I could give my full attention to it.
I still wanna watch Toy Story 3.

..............
D: I kinda wanna try.
I made up a short story. Just now. Because I want to try. I don't really want the editors or anything. I'm terrible at paneling and pacing but. but.
...it looks fun?
I probably will end up not doing it since college is starting really soon and I won't have time. But yeah. :|
YOU GUYS SHOULD TRYYY.

Mooo goes the pig
Jul. 20th, 2010 11:30 pmSuccessfully convinced them to let me skip the prereq, but I'm not terribly fond of the school from what I saw during my stay. :/ Not looking forward to my fall semester at all. After all that arguing with annoyed and busy people, I got REALLY REALLY tired. I couldn't even draw much. I started a few things, but I couldn't carry through and complete them. Ugh. I am sooo drained right now. And I STILL have insomnia.
Also why I haven't gotten to my messages. Uf.

I discovered today that I have absolutely no driving skill whatsoever. D8
ACK.

( Oh, and who remembers Dream Tower? (4 pgs) )
DT will still be a 50% effort comic even if some pages are more than 50% effort...-ted. I use it when I want to draw and write characters that haven't appeared in a story yet or are in stories I haven't started but wish I could. Yep. DT is a whimsical comic. I've thumbnailed and started pages of CF, but I'm still not 100% sure how I'm tackling it art-wise (inking and coloring/toning--whatever I'm planning to do), so I'll abuse DT for experimentation purposes for now.

Jul. 14th, 2010 09:38 pmAaaah, so many institutions to keep track of! I hope this'll get easier over time. I-I think I just panic too much over everything. I really wish I could rely on myself for everything, but I have to rely on others all the time, which gets them irritated and me nervous. I'll be independent one day! DD'X
I re-thumbnailed 20+ pages of CF. I really ought to stop redo-ing and actually get to starting it. I'll try after I stop stressing out over deadlines and things. :x And hopefully I can get to doing it before school starts. I've got a heap of things on my list to conquer before I really feel like I can settle down and enjoy vacation without something pestering me at the back of my head. Aaahh--my childhood--it's ending!
I'm going to attempt to relax right after the stress-fest I pulled myself through (largely my fault, btw). Goodness meee.
Here, have some jazzy music.
I love this song. <3 I couldn't find the male cover I really like on bootube, but the original is still really pretty! The male voice is a bit strange considering the context of the song, but it sounds really nice. ;w; Here it is on nicovid if you have an account there! He goes by...Crimson, if I read that right.
Gero's good cover of Miku's "Scissor Hands". I never saw Edward Scissorhands, play nor movie, but the song is based off of it, and...er, I don't where I'm going with it, but I think it's a nice song, I think.

Jul. 13th, 2010 09:26 pmWell, I passed my driver's permit exam (yay) although the lady didn't tell me what I got or give me back the test. WHATEVER. I don't know WHAT IT IS, but I am not being as responsive as I used to online. Welp, I'll just leave ToI as our designated scapegoat.
( In other news, dinkart and too many tags for so few people. )
I'm going to *~SOCIALIZE~* at a friend's house tomorrow! 8Db I've missed my silly friends.
