   YAY!

*Grabs Yuki for a happy dance...aw, why not?! Throw Inuyasha in there too* My mid-term week of absolute hell is over! *transforms into Napoleon Dynamite* and says: "Yessssssss." Ok, back to me. Ah...feels good and my dad is picking me up today to take me home for spring break! YAY! I missed my doggy and kitty so much..and I guess my parents and friends too:-P Anywho, today in illustration, we had to draw from the model and the guy who was posing decided to begin posing with a Chucky doll...you know that doll from the horror movies, Child Play? He had one of these dolls in his locker! Oh man it was creepy and then while drawing him he looks at me and says: "Hey! I see you're the only lefty in the class!" I looked around and it was true and I was like "Oh yeah, I didn't notice." And then he keeps going on about left-handed people and all the famous people who were lefties and all that stuff and he was doing this while being completely naked AND posing with a Chucky doll. I was a little creeped out but I was still nice to him and talked back. Oh and for the Yuki Club contest, you can send me your submissions by PM or e-mail and you have until Sunday. PLUS...I have not one but TWO outside sources that are going to help me judge this contest so it will be fair and I wont be bias towards anyone. I forgot to mention that all the winners of the contest will not only win their prizes but they will get a spiffy Yuki pin as well! YAY Yuki! YAY! Kadaj from FFVII Advent Children is MINE! You know, the more I read about his character the cooler and more mysterious he gets. Not only is he the bad-guy but supposenly he has this almost childish behavior which is super creepy because he's so calm in everything he does. Plus, he's also trying to find his "mother." Since he's a clone that may be a problem for him...*sniff* poor guy: Thank you dark moon fox for this banner!!! Look! He's so cute! *pinches cheeks* Thank you Rikuheart for this banner! You're going to make me cry: I don't know much about this anime yet besides some parts I have seen from music videos, but I thought this picture was freakin' awesome..this is Dark from D.N. Angel: Random Corn-ball Joke of the Day: Two satellite dishes got married. The wedding wasn't that great but the reception was excellent.

   Such a busy gal...

Week of hell...that's all I can say. Teachers like to lay it on us when there's a break coming. Spring Break next week!! YAY! I had a test in Satire today...er yesterday and had to write 3 essays. On Monday I had a test in Philosophy and this is such a riot I have to tell you guys. Ok, Philosophy is basically a class that provides no answers but encourages you to come up with your own ideas...here's an example of something said to us to get our brains cranking: "We don't know what we do not know but how do we know that we do not know?" Yeah..huh? Anywho, on the test on Monday there were 3 essay questions, we have to answer 2, and with the last one listed, the teacher told us that if you give a good answer to this question, that it will way more heavily then the other question we choose. And the last question was simply this: "Why?" That's it! So I did one of the other questions and then decided to do the why? question. I thought about it and wrote down an answer and handed it in. I got an e-mail from the professor today that gave us our grades and you know what my grade was? An A+!! He told me the answer to the last question was brillant. You wanna know what my answer was to the question, "Why?" My answer was: "Why not?" LOL! And I told a couple of my friends in the class what I had written and they were so pissed 'cause they had written like a 3 page answer to the why? question. Haw Haw!! I worked my butt off today to get some drawings down for my senior project illustration class. This class is cool 'cause we can do ANYTHING we want and we would do this one thing for the entire semester. I decided to do a few pages to a children's book and, since I can't write, I chose to do the classic fairytale Thumbelina and here's a couple drawings that I have so far but neither are complete: Right now, they're not in order...I like to jump around. The 1st one isn't done 'cause I'm going to be adding more shadows and highlights and the 2nd one isn't done since obviously there's no background yet. Just thought you guys may be interested in what I do in college since anime is a big no-no. *sigh* Look!! I found a couple new pictures from Final Fantasy VII Advent Children! CLOUD!! Tifa just looks awesome here: And it's official that FFVII AC is going to be released in Japan/China Town in April!! YAY! So excited! Infortunetly, it's not being released to "America" until summer. Sorry guys! And the Yuki Club would like to welcome its newest members: RinoaSquall4ever, AgentYuki, and lilsangofan! Don't forget the contest ends on Sunday and all you have to do is show why you love Yuki! And the prizes are: 1st Place: An original drawing done by me or an anime music video. 2nd Place: A laminated poster, keychain, wallpaper or animated gif of anime of your choosing. 3rd Place: Gets whatever the 2nd doesn't want. Good luck!

   I floss everyday...do you?!

LOL! Never get the Inuyasha group drunk...you never know what will happen! And yes, this actually happened in an episode. Teehee! One of my faves I may point out^_^ *faint* 67 comments left on yesterday's post! Holy macaroni!! That's like more people then I see in real-life in a day. Thanks guys! Oh and I just have a quick question for you that came up when I posted my latest drawing. I mentioned on the piece that I went back to my "old-school" way of coloring and many people said that they prefer it in that style. So my question is, could you guys just tell me which you prefer? You prefer this style(style 1): Or this style(style 2): You can be honest I don't care..I enjoy doing both way but was wondering which one people were more drawn to...haha!...Drawn to..I'm witty and didn't even know it! Thankies guys!^_^ Wow! I didn't know so many people were interested in learning about my college life. I think it's because I'm going to an art college and probably most people on Otaku are into pursuing that. If you have any specific questions you can ask me. I just think people were most interested in the fact that we draw naked people a lot...you pervs:-P With that said I would like to give a big hugs and thanks to forbidden kitsune who made this banner for me! Ain't it cute! It's got all the Inuyasha cast in it...*huggles!* And a random kick-ass picture of Link and Navi...I love this piece! And The Yuki Club would like to welcome it's newest members: KagomeHonda, darkshippo12, and Kueenbee! And don't forget about the contest! You can PM it to me with a link or something or you can e-mail it to me! Info can be found here:The Yuki Club

   Thai Food is Good

I got the new drawing done! YAY! I actually posted it yesterday at like 5PM but...yeah...I didn't let anyone know till now! Here's the link: Drawing Baby! Nothing much to say about it except I wanted to draw this scene...except make it my own..you know? Am I making sense? I wanted to show the whole figures and all of them in the same shot. I've been having a problem with flamers like big time lately so that's ticking me off. It just bugs me that they're specifically targeting my drawings...it's like they can't stand seeing me in the top 10 and go out of their way to make me feel like crap. Feh!! Anywho, thanks so much guys for your support in yesterday's post. I think some people misunderstood me and thought that I was pissed 'cause people were asking me for help. I LOVE helping people but the thing that was upsetting me was that I wasn't getting a simple thank you in return. Ah well, I'll get over it. Thanks to everyone again...*sniff* You friends of mine make me feel loved. *HUG!* Look! More pictures: So frickin cute I can't take it!! I love Love LOVE this part in both the anime and the manga! Screech! So sweet Yuki!!! Oh my goodness! Over 60 posts I received yesterday! *faints!* I was dragged out last night by my friends so I promise to get to all of those I missed that commented ASAP!! Oh and ONE week is left in the Yuki Club Contest! Info can be found here:The Yuki Club

   I Like Doritoes

Hey, I'm going to try and have a new drawing done by tomorrow...notice I said 'try.' Depends on if someone busts into my room and drags me off like they usually do on a Saturday night. Feh!...anyone else notice that 'Feh' is the best word ever? Quoted from Inuyasha who typically does that when he's being a snot. It's one of those words that sum up so much in so little. Other such words are: Psh and meh. Gotta love it. And I want to give the biggest hug and thank to Marz who made this banner for me: My buddy Aliryn-chan knows this but not many...and that was lately I've been feeling used. Used in that people seem to only want to talk to me to get something. As in, someone will ask me "can you help me to draw better?" And I'll send them this long-ass detailed explanation trying to help them out and I RARELY get a thank you in return. And it's not just art advice but help on people's sites as well. I mean, it was making me dread to check my PM's 'cause I was feeling like people were taking advantage of me. I dunno, it was making me sad but I don't like being sad so I don't like to harp on other people when I'm upset and I don't expect people to come rushing up and sending me banners or anything...it's just a simple thank you is always appreciated. Thanks again, Marz..you made my day^_^ Anywho, I've been dying to find any information about the 4th Inuyasha movie...and there's still like nothing out there except that the 4th movie is called 'Inuyasha Movie 4: Fire on the Mystic Island." I should just ask my China Town source next time I'm there but this is one of the few pictures that I have found that is from this movie and it's pretty crappy quality but bare with me: And lookie! Another cool Inuyasha/Sesshoumaru picture: Oh and this is random but someone asked me to tell them something about me that most people may not know so, here it is: I'm a certified scuba diver. So tell me something about yourselves that I may not know!^_^

   Oreos are awesome

Some people mentioned how they were surprised that I got breaks during my class...well, when your class is 3 hours, you sure as hell better get a break. Yes, my classes are 3 hours EACH! As in my philosophy class is 3 hours, my Satire class is 3, my illustration class is 3...you get the idea. And how long is my drawing VII class? Six...yes SIX HOURS long. If we didn't get a break...not only would the models be exhausted but so would we. So I don't want to hear people complaining about how long their classes are. I don't understand why some people think that Kyo and Tohru should be a couple. I mean...it just doesn't fit. Now, I love Kyo to death...he is an AWESOME character but him and Tohru in a relationship? I'm sorry...nu-uh. His personality is too...Inuyasha and the reason why Inuyasha and Kagome work out so well is that he may yell and scream at her but she will equally throw back whatever he says to her. Tohru isn't like that and when Kyo gets pissed she's just like...yeah, ok. She's too sweet and innocent to handle him and yes, I know Kyo has his soft-gushy interior like Inuyasha does..but he's too bad-ass for her. I see him going out with Tohru's friend...what's her name? The yankee (and I'm allowed to say that 'cause I am a yankee!) 'cause they both have those fiery personalities that can lead to better things. Tohru deserves Yuki and I'm not saying this 'cause he's my fave but he treats her like a princess. He respects her and does everything in his power to try and make her happy and after everything that she has been through in her life...that's what she needs. Someone who treats her with the upmost respect and love. There, I said it and I'm sure many Kyo people are going to be waiting outside my door with baseball bats but I don't care! That's how I feel and I'm sticking to it^_^ After all that here's some cool pictures! I LOVE this picture of Link...so cool! It's so awesome when Inuyasha learns this ice technique. His sword gets all bad-ass lookin! LOL! Ok...are those answers written out Haru's hand there? That little cheater. Heehee!! And if anyone wondered what the gif above is from...that's Kadaj from Final Fantasy VII Advent Children. He's so cool!!! And for those who forgot when the Yuki Club contest was over, it ends on the 20th of March and there's info here: The Yuki Club.

WAHOO!!! Thanks guys!! I happened to check my stats today and saw that I had exceeded 3,000 hits! *HUGS!* And here's a cool picture as well for those who like Inuyaha and Sesshoumaru: Some people seemed to be a little weirded out in yesterday's post when I mentioned I was drawing naked people...well, yes I was! It was for my illustration class and we had a model come in that day. I draw naked people all the time. It's really no big deal. If you want a career in art, you need to know the human figure and having live, nude models is the best way to learn. It teaches you poportions and shading and all that good stuff and it's through this that I can draw anime figures and such. I've been drawing naked people for almost 4 years and it's like totally normal for me to be walking down the hallways and see a naked person in each room and not even think twice about it. That is a little weird, isn't it? Sometimes in class, during the breaks, the models will walk around to look at our work and talk to you while being completely naked!! It's really no big thing...I mean, they're people too. I've drawn naked men, women, young and old, fat and skinny. It's fun and it's helped me learn how to draw people! And I humbly apologize to the people who commented on my site later yesterday who I didn't get to. I had class till 9PM and I was working on a project for tomorrow...er...today now...but I'll be going tonight so I promise to get to you guys. *hangs head in shame as Yuki hands you some flowers in apology* Heehee!! It seems like people are loving the random quote of the week. If you haven't seen it, go check it out...NOW!!! ;-) I love those two...they bicker so well and Kyou has the Inuyasha temper where he will just say anything without thinking twice and then Yuki has a smart-ass comment to throw back...or just shoves a leek into his mouth to shut him up^_^ And don't forget about the Yuki Club contest! Info can be found on the Yuki Club website: The Yuki Club. And the Club would like to welcome its newest members: Lie74, Inuyashalover12, and dark moon fox!!

   My legs are too long and I want caffeine

Nothing much happened today...the usual, went to class, drew some naked people. Went to another class in which a girl was trying to convince us that the United States never actually went to the moon and it's all fake. And then in that same class I learned about dogs that have been committing suicide off a bridge in Scotland. Then had my umbrella turn inside out while trying to walk through campus because it was so frickin' windy that snow and sleet was going up my coat, down my coat, in my pants, and many other such places I don't care to discuss. And I think my roomate is dying in the next room 'cause she keeps hacking like there's a raccoon stuck in her throat...kinda a weird day that's all a haze now since it's midnight. Anywho, this weekend I watched like a ton of Kenshin episodes and have you guys seen the battle between Kenshin and this guy: WOW! One of the best fighting sequences I have EVER seen!! It was AMAZING!! So well done and animated...it was like, movie quality work during that sequence and Kenshin's hair was down too! Somehow, that just made it a bit hotter...but regardless it was just so incredible. I'm quite a bit past that episode now but still thought it deserved a mention. My source in China Town has told me that Final Fantasy VII Advent Children will be released in April!! WOHOO!!! Well, that's when it will be in China Town, whether it will be released other places in America I have no idea. Have you guys seen the trailer for the new Legend of Zelda game coming out! oh Oh OH!!! It looks so good! They made it adult Link and they made him look realistic! As in...not flat cartooney! Here's a sketch of what Link is going to look like in the game: Was reading some Fruits Basket manga, came across this page...I dunno, I just love it! It's so...WHOOSH!! I loved this part in the anime too. It's very emotional and makes me pity Akito a little more...but just a little...he's still a prick sometimes. Don't forget about the Yuki Club contest! Info can be found on the Yuki Club website: The Yuki Club. And the Club would like to welcome its newest members: sweetshnara16, Hydro, Chiyono, wolfgirl90, Towa no Shirube, takako, and VanHelsingMS1011! Welcome guys!!^_^

   Yuki Club Contest!!

Ok fellow Yuki Club members are you ready to learn about the 1st contest? I hope so 'cause you're going to hear about it anyway...Anywho, the 1st contest is: WHY DO YOU LOVE YUKI?! Easy enough?! You can show your love for Yuki in any manner of your choosing whether it be fanart, fanfiction, poetry, a funny caption...ANYTHING!! It just has to show a reason why you like him. I will be looking at creativity and how well it is done, as in if you write a fanfiction I would hope that it is written with proper grammar and spelling and if it's a fanart I'm not looking for a quick doodle. The better it is, the more likely you're going to win! I bet you're asking, ElvesAteMyRamen-oh mighty master, what do I win? Here's the prizes: 1st Place: An original drawing made by me! As in, YOU tell me what to draw and I'll do it for you and ship the original out to you to keep! The characters must be in anime form and maximum of 2 figures in the image and there will only be a plain background. So, you can have a drawing of yourself smooching Inuyasha if you want! Now, I understand some people are not allowed to send their addresses to me so you may also choose to have me make a music video for you. Obviously, it's limited to what animes I have...I have Inuyasha movies 1, 2, and 3, the entire Inuyasha series 1-167 plus the OVA special 'The Woman Who Loved Sesshoumaru, I have the entire Kenshin series and Samurai X movies, Fruits Basket, Ai Yori Aoshi, and I have Spirited Away. 2nd Place: You have a choice of an anime laminated poster of an anime of your choosing or an anime keychain. You give me a list of animes you like and # them from your faves to least faves and I will do my best to find a poster or keychain that matches your anime. To see what one of these posters look like, look at the post made 2 days ago with a picture of me in it...on my wall you see the Inuyasha and Kagome poster there? That's what the posters look like. For those who can't give out their addys, I will make an animated gif (like the ones shown in my profile) also of an anime of their choosing or a wallpaper. 3rd Place: You get whatever the 2nd place person does not want. So, if they choose the poster, you get the keychain and vice versa. Obviously, this contest are for members of the Yuki Club ONLY!! You must be a member to be in the contest but people are still allowed to join so PM me or leave a comment if you would like to be in the club. And you can either PM me your submissions for the contest or you can e-mail them to me (my e-mail is in my profile). This contest will run for TWO weeks so good luck everyone!! Speaking of which I would like to welcome the latest member: DragonMasterKatie to the club!! I'm glad you like the music video guys, for those who could see it and I have it uploaded onto animemusicvideos.org so it's now available for download. And it's much better quality then either in yesterday's post. Here's the link It's on the bottom of that page and you must be a member of the site to download it. It's free to become a member and there's THOUSANDS of great AMV's on that site so you should sign up!!^_^
