Frost Update
So yeah I didn't go get that sweater after all. I went to Montclair and found it in one size which was mine, but decided not to get it due to how thin the material was. The sweater would be good for a cold summer day or at the beach not good for the upcomming weather. So instead I bought a skeleton hoodie. It's so warm I love it. I also found out that it glows in the dark. The tag never mention anything about that. I still got my eye on that Victorian coat, but I already used my 15% of card on the hoodie, because I didn't think I would be getting that Victorian Jacket soon since I only had half the money. Anywho I will be getting it soon. I went to an interview Monday and got the job. I start working tomorrow. So today I'm going to borrow 60 or 80 dollars from my cousin Jimmy to buy professional clothing, since that's the dress code.
In Dojo news: I'm still the "vampire" at the dojo. *I'm going to go buy some fangs now, I don't care anymore* Many are shock to find out that I don't celebrate holloween, me being goth and all, but they settle on the fact that there is no need since I'm a vampire all year round. I learned more on the broad sword yesterday from Skittles. He hasn't taught me anything on it since he introduce me to it so long ago. I was so into it that we got on the part where you place two fingers on the blade of the sword to wipe of the blood. He says alright when you're here you wipe the blood off with two fingers and set then, then place your two fingers on your mouth and taste the blood. I did exactly as he told me then paused when I realized what I did, as he looked at me smiling. "And that's why we call you a vampire." That was a low blow. Skittles then presented me with a gift, he bought me new karate shoes. I thank him, tried them on, finish my lesson then headed to my cousin's pad. I later on retunred to class that evening, where I recieved more Vampire cracks.
And now: going to work on some Tainted Cycle and maybe a bit more on my obsession.

Eventful news
Laura called me this morning and told me to get some art done to be displayed at a Japanese Resturaunt. So I'm going to start painting.
Last night was pretty fun. After school I headed up to Valek's house. While there Brenda showed up with her boyfriend David, who turned out to be an old friend from middle school. Such times my friends, such times. Well we were all pretty bored and began playing halo 3. Then headed out side to the patio and played cards and talked about unnatural events that happened to us as well as our life right now. David and I also tried guava. I like the white guava he liked the pink. and Valek's dad was pretty friendly yesterday. He cooked food and was tyring to get us all to eat. "He kept saying i don't really cook but when I do, you know it's good." He also kept talking so much. I told Valek that it was weird I'm use to seeing him asleep on the couch in the living room or watching t.v. He like yeah he has his moments and when he's up it's hard to get him to shut up. Oh yeah I was watching courage the cowardly dog show Sunday and saw "The Tower of Doctor Zalost" episode. For some reason Dr. Zalost reminded me of Valek. here's a clip of Zalost and his rat.

My little obsession
Alright, yesterday I annouced the upcomming productions of Tainted Cycle and in the end of that post mention about a pic for a little obsession that I have. Well I started it and finished it yesterday at 4:20pm. So my new obsession has been cleanly drawn. (I wish I draw anime so cleanly) I'm unsure though as how to finish it up. I want to color it ever so badly, due to the influence of Tszuki XIII's Kannon pic. Yet I want to play it safe and shade it. My shading still needs work but my color definitely needs improvement. So I thought it over and decided to do both. The 4:20 one I did yesterday will be shaded and a much larger version will be made of it where I will color it with either chalk pastels or color pencil. Either medium will be suitable since I need to purchase both of them anyway.

In other news I now have money to purchase the black skeleton hoodie visible with a human heart. So I'll be making a trip to the Montclaire mall either today or tomorrow or whenever I head up to Nick's house next week. The reason for the purchase of the hoodie is to convert it into a Rammstein hoodie. It's perfect for the song Herzeleid (Heartache). I'm getting the lyrics sreen pressed on in cursive in German

"Bewahret einander vor Herzeleid
denn kurz ist die Zeit die ihr beisammen seid
Denn wenn euch auch viele Jahre vereinen
einst werden sie wie Minuten euch scheinen
Herzeleid
Bewahret einander vor der Zweisamkeit"

translation

"Save each other from heartache
for the time that you are together is short
For even if you are united by many years
one day they will seem like minutes to you
Heartache
Save each other from togetherness"

So yeah that'll two new jackets to Rammstein. ^_^

Tainted Cycle News
I'm sitting here drawing the ruff sketches of Kat and the Mushroom Man. I got two versions of this man. The young version and the old version. Which form is his true form, I'll never tell, you just got to ask Kat. Anyway on Kat I got her in her summer dress wear and am working on the winter wear. I see a woolen dress and scarf, furry boots and holly in her hair. As for the Mushroom man I'm not exactly sure how I'll dress his younger version in the summer. I guess I'll draw a winter picture of the two of them togther then. Well then more Tainted Cycle images are brewing and this time I plan to get as many on paper and COMPLETE! I have a bad habit of never finishing art that I start but I'm going to make sure that I do finish these though. I also got a little surprise pic I'm working on for a new obssession that I have. When it's done you will all be notify. ^_^

   frost's time
So yeah I'm stranded at my house right now. I should be getting ready to go to an interview but I'm not even sure if I can make it since it's up in Riverside and my car is still in the repair shop. *sign* Fortune does not wish to shine upon me I guess. So I'm sitting here eating Ramen and stir fry cabbage and tofu, listening to Nine Inch Nails. I guess when I'm done I'll get ready for an interview and hope for the best that my car comes back or my mother returns home in time for me to go to it. -_-
*Making myself feel better listening to the Numa Numa song.*

Fun with Lindy and cheating on Rancho
Monday: Began heading towards Lindy's house dropped my car off jumped into hers and we headed to go see Desiree. Lindy and I talked for quite some time and enjoy listen to German rock. Rammstein, Eisbrecher, Wumpscut, Emigrate (The lead guitarist of Rammstien, Richard Krupse's new band) We arrived at Desiree's and began catching up. I haven't spoken to Desiree in person for like a year and half. (we've talked on the internet though) So yeah I met Desiree's new boyfriend and soon to be rockstar husband, Alex. Time came for Desiree to go to school so we dropped her off at Chaffey college as Lindy and I went to the dojo and talked to Skittles one final time. It was the best hour spent and Lindy realized how many more we could have had. We couldn't help but laugh at each other as Skittles made fun of us. He told us how we complete each other. (we are both indeed strange) We made fun of Skittles as he told me to draw a pic to represent him and it can not be a bag of purple skittles. (BTW Sempai Edgar doesn't like it when I call him Skittles, but how else do I address him when I'm around with friends, Sempai Edgar is too formal, when they call him Edgar, and I feel awkward calling him Edgar without the sempai. He said I could address him as Edgar, but I'll stick with Skittles ^_^.) After more talking of good times and awkward conflicts Desiree called (many times for us to pick her up 6 I think, she got Lindy in check mode) and we had to pick her up. I got my new gi and we bid Skittles fair well. As we picked her up we headed to Ontario Mills and went to Hot Topic in search for the Rammstein Volkerball shirt. There we saw the guy who kind of looks like Nick. Turns out his name is Phil. We asked him for help and talked with him for a while. While talking I noticed something about him, he likes Lindy, my clue was I never heard him talk so much about Rammstein before. Like I would talk to him about it but it would never go anywhere. It made me feel sad then blush, I think I like the guy. So Lindy purchased her shirt and then as I walked out I noticed they had one in my size so I went to purchse it. Phil said bye as we walked out. I could tell by the look on his face that he is going to miss Lyndian, she joined the army and this was our last day with her. I think the next time I see him we'll talk about her, and I'll keep him updated and how she is doing, cause I could really tell that he liked her. So we left the mall dropped Desiree off and headed back to Lindy's pad. I picked up my car and saw Andrew Rivera. (Earlier I discover that he had proposed to Lyndian and she did not accept. I also realized that I did know who he was when I kept telling her I didn't and he the same. He has also joined the army) we chatted exchanged numbers and I left to Claremont. I did class and learned a new form "Swift Tiger". I wrote it down not to forget it. I also met some guy there. His name is Adrian. I remember seeing him at tournament when I would watch the green/green with brown stripe belts do their forms. I loved seeing him do his forms they were so clean. Well we talked for a while and parted ways cause it was getting late. I put on my sandal headed out the door and put my stuff in my car, I notice there was a white mustang parked next to me which made me think of Skittles. I then put on my jacket and put grab my wallet heading to Vons. As I past the dojo someone looked at me "why the hell are you here expression" from inside. It made me jump as I realized it was Skittles! He caught me going to another dojo.
Skittles: (perturb) what are you doing here?
Arie: (busted) just taking a class.
Skittles: In your new gi no less, you were supposed to break that in at Rancho.
Arie: Sorry, but what are you doing here shouldn't you be at Rancho still?
Skittles: I am one f the instructors here is my carpool buddy to head to the gym.
Friend: Hey man what's going on.
Skittles: You! Your over here trying to take away my best student that's what.
Friend: (oblivious) You were in my class?
Arie: Yeah
Skittles: She's sill in here uniform man.
Friend: So how do you like it here (skittles throws a glare) I mean why aren't you in his class?
Arie: (smiles) just in the neighborhood.
Skittles shakes his head and walks to the office.
Arie: I'll be in class tomorrow in
Rancho sir.
Skittles: I'm telling Sensei Paul.
Arie: What?
Friend: It's alright you could still come by and see me, just do one class a week over there. It'll be our little secret.
Arie: (smirks) Alright then see you Wednesday.
I went home thinking of the day's events and missing Lyndian. I got five years to learn German at a proficient level, reading writing and speaking with my spanish accent as I try so hard not to roll my Rr's. I then get a call from Skittles as he tells me that he too wants to learn German. So we shall study together, all for Lindy, who shall remained missed.

   Yesterday did get better thanks Valek
Still agitated by my brother Joe's action I decided to head out. I was on my way to go see Nick but I realized I should have called him first so instead I went to see Jesus. He wa home and shocked. It's been over a month since we last seen each other. I returned him the 69 Eyes cd I borrowed and we chatted, then his mother served me some black beans and rice while he went to take a shower. The taste of Valek's mom's food was so good it brought tears to my eyes. I miss her cuban food. Then Ralph showed up. It's been a long time we saw each other in fact the last time I saw him was the last time I saw Jesus. We chatted while waiting for Valek I tol,d him about my well being and he told me his. Then he suggested that we should all move in together and become fuck buddies! I laughed ah it's been so long indeed. I miss Ralph's humor. We headed to Valek's where he was ready headed to Carter to go see people. I ran into Tricia and went with her to the art room to see Mr. Taylor and found out that Miss Smith left the school. (I still needed to pick up some art pieces from her but I guess I'm going to have to forget about it.) Chatted met up with the guys (Jesus and Ralph) saw Julio again. I kept bumping into him that day. (Julio has gotten buff, and is pretty sexy, sad to find out that he and Cynthia broke up) We then walked Margeret to tennis then headed back to Valek's pad, where we retire amd did nothing but watched t.v. Ralph had to leave to and go clean his rabbit's cages. Jesus and I watched AFI in concert, he played a video game while I wrote a poem and drew a picture for it in pen. I then left. I was unable to listen to anymore emo music. (I miss the days where he would play H.I.M, note to self need to buy Voltaire's new cd asap)

pissed but could sure unwind
My brother could be such a jerk at times ugh, it pisses me off. Today I was heading out to Carter to pay off my charges and register for school. My brother confronts me and wants my car so he can go to work. I tell him no because I have things to do. He says I should have done it yesterday. I told hi I wasn't able to cause I was waiting for Skittles, he had my pre calculus book. Joe then takes my key from the car and walks back inside taunting. I'm infurieated at the moment and want to fight, I'm determine to not let this slow me down, but I let reason enter my head and told our mother. She made him give back the keys. He's pissed and throws them at me instead calling me a bitch. (it really hurted cause I had a Kubaton attached to my keys.) I then take off to the school pretty pissed return my book leaving only $75 to pay off then I get charged from a buch of bullshit and now have to pay $124 none the less I was still going to pay it all off so I can register at the other school. I saw Hucrane said hi as the receptionist told me the news. The clerk never showed up so I have to pay my bill tomorrow and register Monday. I then got up gave Hucrane a big hug cause I was thinking about everything that is getting in my to register. We chat as I walked him to his class. I mention something about the restroom and shows me where it was at. Which made me smiled As he realized that I too use to attend this school, "oh wait of course you know where the restroom is at you went here last year. XP" so I made him feel better by saying, "Thank you, that's the one that's open during this time right?" I then left school grounds and went home. I think I'll call Nick to see if we can practice sword fighting, or go see Jesus, I don't know.

On the artistic note I'm drawing once again. I finally drew an anime pic. It's Sesshomaru, he's like the only anime person i can draw right now. I'm still working on painting and will set some time for Tainted Cycle. I got to catch up on. Alurra~chan is urging me to.

   Yesterday
I'm so sore and stiff right now I can barely move. All thanks to Skittles. I went to the dojo the other day to make up some private lessons I missed and Skittles wanted me to feel what I missed out on. I felt horrible. It was so hot and he was drilling me pretty hard, if I was doing an hour private I probably would have passed out from fatigue. Skittles told me that he missed training me cause I made him laugh. He also told me he feels hurt because I would rather go to Claremont than Rancho which makes me a traitor. lol. Well after that was over I had a class at 8:00pm and left with a headache. I think I may have pushed myself. I'm so out of shape. ^_^?

   Recolletions, Thanks Hucrane.
Well I'm sitting here on my bed redrawing a picture I gave Hucrane a year ago. I was so amazed that he still had it.
On Sunday I invited him to the movies with me to save me from the agony of having to be there with my mutter and her boyfriend and boyfriend's son. We kinda got there a bit late so Hucrane and I went to see the next showing of War. It was tight I love the action that was in it while Hucrane love the Yakuza guy's daughter cause she reminded him of Wednesday Addams of the Addams family. So after the movie was over we steped out and I was checking out some goth at the consession stand who Hucrane knew and in fact introduced me to earlier when he was working. So bored of waiting for my mutter to turn up we talked with Irving and played DDR, people were comming out to see us play. I guesse it does look odd to see goths play such a game. lol Hucrane and I sucked but Irving and he's girlfriend where good at the game. Lots of talking later got bored of waitng for my mutter and left the theatre to take Hucrane home cause he had school Monday. As I went to drop him off I picked up a cd called Dancing in the Dark. We talked and he began saying gome weird stuff that he felt that he wasn't a good friend. He's been pretty rattle on whether or not he's a good person ever since rejecting some check who loved him dearly but only knew the guy for 6 days. (She was the chick at the get back I went to who kept talking to him and pretty much wouldn't leave him a lone when I tried to talk to him. which left me distracted and I end up getting bit on the arm, by Gabriel.) So I told him that he was a good friend after I still hang around him when I really can't stand being near people. Plus I don't view his touch the be digusting, it's safe. (I don't like people touching me because well i don't trust them, yet alone know them, and feel well i don't know it's difficult to explain, It's more of an inner feeling thing I guess.) I guess after all this he mentioned something about some chick who he used to be friends with and how the friendship and stuff like that and how she made him a pic and he still had it. I told him that was very nice of him, because the worst thing you can do to an artist is give them back a pic that was made for you. I then told him how that happen between Nick and Laura and how she's in denial about it. (Laura never told me Nick gave back the picture she made from him, Nick told me about it though) Hucrane told me he would never do that and then showed me the pic I had made him a year and a half ago, which made me happy. I never thought he would still have it cause I made it for him when we barely even knew each other. So here I am with that very same pic in my hand looking at it and redoing it. When I finish with it I'll return it back to him. It's a really nice pic I'm shock I never kept a copy of it for my self. It's a marker of when I began drawing woman realistic and good. ^_^
