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. :(
keyk: (Umm.)
I 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.

I did something to my stomach, but I'm still not sure what. Whatever it is, it's annoying. :I

So I have two volumes of Yokaiden I plowed through (I really want the rest!!!) by Nina Matsumoto, aka spacecoyote, aka the person who did the popular webcomic Saturnalia. I wasn't hooked by the first volume, but it was charming and good enough for me to continue, but, haha, the second ended in a cliffhanger and I'm totally pumped for the next!

I also have the third volume of tactics done by the much better translators at Tokyopop (as opposed to ADV, who couldn't even edit it well), and...well, it's nothing spectacular; I preferred the last two volumes in spite of the bad translation. Even still, I plan on continuing the series because Kantarou is just that cool. I seem to have a thing for the lazy tactician type characters. And after reading them and rereading chunks of Houshin Engi, I've realized that I tend to like series with youkai in it. Strange, considering I've never been a huge monster or horror fan, but...OH WELL.

And so I was inspired to pick up RO again (the free server since I'm a cheap-butt) because I am being mostly unproductive again and I feel semi-accomplished when I do something there. And I really like their monsters. AndsupersecretlyreallywantahumanoidpetthereeventhoughtamingisreallyhardAHEM. The cutesy and dark stuff there and the humongo world really gets to me in a good way, but argh, too much grinding and gold digging. I am not made for MMOs. orz;;;;

My life post-exciting things that happened to me. :S As much as I'd like to promise that CF starts this summer, no guarantees from me. But I'll do my best! And I'll get my fall semester down once I get my AP score to see if I'm going to retake a semester of calc. Wheee.

Is it the temperature or what? PMDD should be way over by now! Or at least, it shouldn't come back! My dreams have been really messed up lately, and my emotional and mental state has been fluctuating like crazy. Headaches are coming back again, body pains, as always, insomnia's kicked back in again--CELLS. WHAT ARE YOU DOING. GET IT RIGHT ALREADY. D8

Physical exercise is supposed to be a good stress reliever, right? Take the crap outta ya? It makes me feel worse. All the time. D': Stop being so nonconformist, brain.

Played RO, hoping it'd calm me down, but I actually got really irritated 'cause the monster just would not turn into an egg for me and those tames are dang hard to get. XD; I'm...pretty vain, I know. Also played FFT (I'm such a job/class twit) and moved on a bit, but then I stopped because I really didn't feel like training. Still need to get Zodiac for my summoner.

I have lots of ideas for MBF, but I just don't have the energy right now. I feel like I make too many characters for that thing though. D:
keyk: (What.)
Since unproductiveness is my middle name, I started playing on iRO's Valkyrie server!

The nerdiness no one really needs to listen to )

Macne Nana is...adorable. D: I think I like her design better than those of the Vocaloids, haha. XD;
