Place SUBJECT Here
Konnichi Wa Mina!

Ahh...what a day. Well, I had so much to do...why does time have to be a factor? Why do I have to sleep? Anyways....

Colored one of the pics I drew and submitted it. Tell me what ya think! I think I am starting to get better with the understanding of shading. There are still some mistakes, but mistakes are what make us grow, ne? ne?

I completely redid the pic section of the yuki site and I added a cursor effect! I thought it was cool. I tried to do it here, but I don't think they allow javascript on the page. That sucks. I'm also thinking about doing a How To Draw Yuki tutorial. Don't know if anyone would be interested in that, but if so, then let me know! I'll see what I can do. I'm also thinking about doing the layout of the site. It's seems so simple and amateurish to me.... Guess I always wanna do the best I can. I'm also trying to think of what else to add to make the site more interesting. Any ideas? If you haven't seen the site, it's www.otakucrazy.com. Just click on the yuki banner.

Eto...what else to write about? Naruhodo! I just found out that there are actually 3 conventions here in denver I can go to. The first was Nan Desu Kan, which I went to last year. I guess Kuni Con is another that they are having and it's gonna be held only a few blocks away from me! Woo Hoo! The third is Mile High Con. It's not all anime, but sci-fi fantasy and fiction. They have anime too though....HEHE I am so happy! The only thing is now I have less time to make costumes. That's a total of 9 costumes to make this year, and the cons are only months apart!! Better get started! Ok, enough Blah Blah, Blah. Sorry, no pics to post today. Tomorrow I'll put some more of those funny inu pics I made! Ja ne!

Love is the tie that binds us......
Konnichi Wa!

So sorry I wasn't able to get to anyones sites yesterday. It just got so late, so I made it to only half. Gomen!

Well I spent the entire day re-watching the entire series of Fruits Baskets again....hehe, I love it so much. I noticed something today though. For some reason, this was the only anime I have ever watched in english. So I put it in japanese today, and i actually didn't like it. Yuki sounds way to girly!!! I couldn't believe I actually prefered english on an anime!!! I couldn't stand his japanese voice. UGH! Anyways, other than that all I did was clean house and managed to draw a pic.

Oh and myO deleted two of my wallpapers. They said it was an improper format. I don't get it, what was an improper format? They were both jpeg. Unless by mistake I submitted the .psd, but I know it wouldn't accept it if I had, nor if the size was wrong? Then I tried to pm them back. What the hell? How am I supposed to re-enter them in the proper format, if they didn't tell me what was wrong with it in the first place? Ahhhh! Anyways, enough ranting. It's late again, so I will try to get to everyone's site this time. Here is the drawing I made!!

   Contest Winner
Man, you guys made it really hard to pick a winner. I'm still sitting here scratching my head over which one I like best....Hmm, let me write the rest of my post and I'll announce the winner.

AAHHHH!! I am so mad...I went to my anime store and they finally had a the chobits series so I bought it and it was the last one. So I come home and put it on and it says it's unable to read the disk. What the hell is this? It's like torture.I have wanted to see it forever and they sell like hotcakes, if you get what I mean. ERRRRR! And I can't exchange it for who knows how long since I only go once a week and chobits sells out in like 3 days. Ahh I am so sad.

Anyways, I made two more original anime pics. The first one was just goofing around and I really screwed up on it bigtime, but I like the hair. The second one I messed up a little, but I really like the way it came out regardless. My friend says this is how I draw when I get serious....I guess he's right since after goofing around I did look at it with a less playfull manner. Maybe I should get more serious, ne? I will eventually color it, but I have a painting I am doing for eamr that needs to get finished. I'll post it here when it's done...hehe. I also ran into one of my friends at the anime store. It was cool since we sat there BSing around for an hour with the cashier, and talking anime n stuff. His artwork is phenomenal and probably the best amateur work I have ever seen.

Ok, I know you all are waiting for the winners. The thing is I am stuck between 2, so I am going to make both of them winners! Yay! So the winners are....*drumroll please*...........

Sango18 and Ailah Wolf! Their submissions struck me as really cool, and I look forward to drawing or painting them! I'll show you the pics they entered at the bottom. Ok, 'nough said. Ja ne!

The Pics!

Oh The Tangled Web We Weave......
Moshi Moshi! Ha! Guess what I did today? I made a short comic..hehe. It took me a couple of hours to do, but it was fun.I also made more wallpapers and uploaded them...hehe.It was a fun day I guess. Did laundry to and ordered pizza. Umai! They screwed it up though, so now I have a credit for a free pizza! Yay!

Anyways, big news! I am gonna run a one day contest. So you have only today to enter it. I haven;t the faintest clue what to paint, so this is the contest. I want you to come up with the hardest character you can find for me to paint. Well, it doesn't neccesarily have to be a character, it can be a really hard detailed picture with the character in it. Please limit it to the newer type of anime and not the old styled like Vampire Hunter D or stuff like that. You can either send it as an attatchment in email or pm the url. My email address is lewna@otakucrazy.com. Whee! So what is the prize? An Inuyasha Comic Book. I hear these are pretty hard to come by and are great to add to any anime collection! HEHE, So start looking and have fun!

Here is the short comic I made!

It's Raining, It's Pouring, Kyo and Yuki are Arguing......
Whee! I just made this new background and posted it here. It might take a moment to load, but I don't think it would take any longer than usual. Not unless the page loads something else in front of it. Anyways,isn't it cool how the rain falls!?!?! Man it took me like two hours to make it. I'm trying to make one with leaves falling behind Tohru. Actually I already made it, but for some stupid reason when I publish the gif the leaves won't move. Even when it does it in the flash movie. ERRRAAHHHH!!!! It frustrates me! I can't figure out why it did it with the raining one and not this one! ERRRAHHHHHH!

Anyways, feeling too lazy to upload a pic to the server, so I'm gonna post a poem here to match instead.

I also made some Fruits Baskets wallpapers and uploaded them to myO. I have never made wallpapers before, so you guys should check them out at the link at the bottom and tell me what you think. I also have some other ones that I will post on my site here in a couple of days. Hope you like the poem and wallpapers! Ja mata!

The Storm

The storm draws near and I tremble inside,
So many memories the clouds bring with it.
Faster than the lighting strikes the ground,
Does my body begin to quiver from sorrow.

The raindrops beckon my tormented heart,
To cry the pain that it holds within.
They tell it to release what has been hidden,
That they will cover the tears that fall.

But a smile forms to the corners of my face,
For I cannot let surface what lies underneath.
Fear of remembering all that has been done,
Keeps this wanting of freedom within it's arms.

How does one face the pain of a wounded soul?
I have ran away from it for so long.
How does one forget the cries of a tortured heart?
I'd rather ignore the storm.

I wrote that one a really long time ago. Kinda sad, ne?

Snow, Snow, Go Away..Come again another season!
Ah geez, it snowed! I can't believe it snowed. I hate the snow. The only snow I love is the Sohma kind...Hahaha.

I'm in a much better mood today. Sitting here eating home made cookies. I offer some to you, take your pick!


Yummy! Anyways, the Disney on ice was so awesome! I had a lot of fun.I may be 21, but it felt like I was 5 again. Talked to my brother too. He's in the army over in NY. He's a specialist. Ha! I should call him Sagara Sousuke like in Full Metal Panic! Anyways, he's a year younger than me. He actually spent two terms in Iraq! He's in infantry and for the half of it he was a hummer driver. Him and his group were also the ones that found and chased Sadam Hussein, all the way until he crawled in that hole. Then they called special forces to pull him out. Crazy, isn't it? He also killed like 60 people more or less. He's almost been blown up and shot at a bunch of times. He's a fanatic though. He even sent us a pic of the first guy he killed. Ah geez, that's my little bro for ya. Right now he's in college to be a US history teacher. Whacko...Love ya bro! Anyways, he came on here and looked at my artwork. Now he wants me to do a painting of The Crow anime style. That's just great! I have no idea how to take a human and make him look like an anime character. AHHH *pulls hair out*. Second thought, better not do that. My hair is waist length and it took 8 years to grow!

Let's see. Went to my dad's house too. He has a 21 inch monitor. No FAIR!!! It is so awesome, ahh, I want one too. He came by and looked at my artwork too, mainly the photoshop ones.Well I did an original anime sketch. I'll post it here on my page. It's ok, i guess.I never really ever did a side profile pic, so don't expect much of it. I'll also post a cool pic of yuki that i found. Well, that's all for today. Mata ne!

Plain apples are nice, but Exotic Mango's should be in my basket.
Konnichi Wa Mina!

Thanks so much for cheering me up. Some of those comments hade me cracking up, especially takako's, so by the time I got around to everyone's site, I was able to be in a more cheerful mood and not let my depressed state get anyone else down. I am also glad you liked my poem. Mata, Arigatou!

Ah, I'm still kinda blah'd out with my yuki painting. I did an easy one cause it was my first time drawing him and on canvas too, but now I wish I would have done something more complicated. I don't want to post it with the others, but I will here at the end of my day entry.

Has anyone seen His and Her Circumstances? It's a really lovey kind of anime. It reminded me of first love and first boyfriend and how you are shy towards each other and all that cutesy stuff. It had me cracking up too. But the series ended right in the middle of everyone's problems! There has to be a second season but I can't find anything on the net about it. Does anyone know if there is alreadt or there is going to be a second season? Geez, I hope so!

Eto...Ara! Guess where I am going today?!?!?! To DISNEY ON ICE...Hahaha, those shows are soo sugoi! I went in december for the monster's inc show. It was awesome. Don't know which one this is since my mom told me without details. She couldn't remember the name either. Ahhh, I am so excited!

Well, that's all for now. I will go to visit everyone when I come back! Soshite, here is my painting:

Time is but an imaginary boundary created to confine our minds.
Blah..what a dreary day. Lately, I have felt so blah. I painted a pic of yuki and it looks so...plain. There's no extravagance to it. Ahhh, such woe and misery. I think I am gonna start painting some original anime and experiment a little, especially with backgrounds. I can't do that at all.

Sorry I haven't been by any sites the past two days. I have just been so lost in my own little world. Sometimes I think staring at the wall would be better.

Anyways, I added mp3's to the yuki site for everyone to download. I also rewrote the way that I want my Mischievious Fairies to come out, which mean I am gonna have to re-write the first chapter. I decided it would be better for them not to be coupled. It suits the story better. Don't know when I will have it re-written, but I'll post whenever it is done. Well, I am in a bit of a melancholy mood, so I think I am gonna share one of my infamous (haha) poems with you to suit the mood. Hope you like it.

Misty Thoughts By Lewna

Misty thoughts of all I've known,
Flow painfully in the currents of forgetfulness.
Making it's winding path of misery,
Through black voids of unknown depths,
To the far corners of this frightening hatred.

Love is a faint memory that I grasp to hold,
A passion that keeps my dreaming mind,
Bound to it's whirlpool of endless longingness.
Tortured screams echoing through,
The soundless swamps of unsatisfaction,
Swirl around my world, decieving my willing heart.

A sadness engulfing me in it's sorrowing darkness,
Swallowing all the light of hope,
Is leaving me flooded in the oceans of tears from my lying eyes,
Frozen in it's strength forever.

Am I left to be left captured in this sickening realm of cruelty,
Forever wishing to taste the warm embracing arms of love,
Or will eternity taunt me to the maddening days of my everlasting death?


Sorry to be in such a mood. Ja ne.

I've found my golden goose, have you?
Hiya Everyone!! * waves n waves* I'm in a cheerful mood it seems. Just got done watching scarface and catch me if you can with my best friend. She's never seen them and we chowed down on pizza.

Yay! I've reached 500 visits! In a day or two I'll have a 100 GB entries. Thank you guys so much! I am honored that you spend your time to come here and listen to the psycho babble I give out! As my gift to you, I made some really funny inuyasha outtakes. It's not much, but I hope you like them!

I'm so glad that you guys liked my story. I know it seems a little blah because of the way I write. I write so that I know what's going on to draw. That kinda explains why there isn't that much detail. But next chapet I will try to make it more entertaining, and add some more jokes. It will get funnier. That was more the introductory chapter, since I know in anime you have to set the story before you have funny things happen. Do you guys want me to post the next chapter on here for you to read? I don't want to bore you all. Well, let me know! Well, now for your presents!









Thanks so much for being my friends!
