Additions and Fixes
Fixed up the site a little, as you can see. Hopefully no more boxes with ‘x’s in them. Sadly, I can’t find where the walking chibis I had up are, but this will give Alex, Sophia and Vincent (mmm, coffee) a chance to shine.

Also added a button for a Frey fan site. Yay for Frey. (*mutters* What was Alice thinking?)

Thank you Ren kun, tinypics is a very nice hosting site. I’ve been using youimg.com, but for some reason they aren’t hosting anything else at the moment.

I’ve been in an alarmingly increasing panic over the amount of work I have to accomplish before 2/15. It seems almost all of the colleges I might want to go to want their applications in by then. Eh heh. I’m so dead.

I wanna draw something! But I’m never in the mood when I actually have time...which I should be spending writing essays and filling out applications...*sigh*

I’m in a grumpy mood. Which is why Tatiana will grace this post with her presence, lol.

Diatribe (that was one of my vocab words today)
It’s been awhile since I updated....so decided to post out of boredom. Random news: I’ve read 5 books in 4 days. Go me. The Mediator Series, by Meg Cabbot. I think I’m going in finish reading the last book today. I like them a lot, better then the Princess Dairies Series. But then, I’ve always had a thing for the supernatural.

Hmm. Looks like all the walking LE chibis on my site have died. Should do something about that...nah, don’t feel like it. Maybe tomorrow. ‘Sides, the free uploading site I use is out of order for some reason. Pooh.

Haven’t drawn much at all lately. Well, except in Studio Art. Drawing a giant closeup of a skull. And some rib bones. I might have to put some spine in too. The skeleton that we’re sketching is named Ichabod. Let me tell you, he’s got serious teeth problems.

Oh, I haven’t posted since I got my new schedule. My study hall supervisor...yeah, he’s a freak. It’s like “Dude, chill. It’s just a /study hall/. Not a way for you to vent your control-freak-issues.”
And my new religion period...I miss my old one. A lot. There’s this girl I really don’t like, but she doesn’t know it, and I now have that class with her. And she’s really, really, annoying, and kinda vulgar. And creepy. And I’m likely to spaz if she tries to hug me again.

Anyway. Does anyone know when the anime portfolios are going to be fixed? It’s been some time now.

Anime Shopping Spree
Saturday I went shopping. ^^ At Suncoast I bought a Kingdom Hearts Nightmare Before Christmas T-Shirt, and a Fruits Basket Kyo ‘beanie’ hat, AND the starter box for LE, comes with the first DVD, a mouse pad of Lavie and Claus, and a lil’ Alvis action figure. Now I have all the LE DVDs. The Alvis figurine’s head, legs and arms can come off, and I didn’t know that, so I was trying to see how to get her on the stand, and her legs fell off and I thought I broke her, lol

At Waldens I bought a LE wall scroll. (See my background? That’s basically it, except bigger and without the Japanese words) I’ve always seen the box of posters they have there, but I guess I never noticed the little picture of the LE one, or that’s new....anyway, I’m happy. And broke. Heh.

Also on Saturday I went to Megan’s house and she and I watched eps 1-14 of Last Exile. (She’d never seen it before). She likes it, but does not see why Dio is my favorite character, lol. She kept going “Why???” when he was first introduced.

Saw ‘In Good Company’ yesterday. Pretty funny, but kinda different, considering it’s a ‘romantic comedy’...Went shopping again today, with Danielle. Lol. Didn’t buy anything though.

I don’t want to go to school tomorrow, but I’m not dreading it. I have some new classes (Studio Art, and American Law), and others have been switched around, so get to see other ppl. Could be a good or bad thing. *crosses fingers*

I Am Liberated!
All my exams are finished. ^-^ And yesterday I wanted to draw, but felt guilty about it since I should have been studying. But now I can draw all I want. I tried the Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE (by Clamp) style, and drew a scene from the manga of Primela. (Yes, I know she’s anatomically incorrect, that’s the style, lol) Then went over it in pen. I’m very proud of myself, no mistakes. ^^

I really should draw the Bakura request I was asked to do, but I haven’t been in a Bakura-drawing-mood lately. (Which is weird, because for about a month all I wanted to draw was Bakura. Odd.) Sorry dejavukitty!

I have a four day weekend. Mwahaha. What shall I do? I want to go shopping! I still haven’t spent my Christmas money. Need to go to Suncoast....and Waldens....

Now that exams are over my fanifiction writing obsession will die. Does this every year. *sigh* I just wrote another LE one-shot the other day, but haven’t posted it yet. That’s 5 fan fics I’ve written since Christmas, if you count the uncompleted YGO one.

I’m starting to miss my Alvis avatar, I think she might make a comeback when I get tired of Modoki.

Arg
I hate exams. I hate semester projects. And college essays...*sob* And I hate how I seem to be compelled to write fan fiction when I should be studying and/or writing. But every year, this happens. I’ve written three fan fics since Christmas. *sigh* I don’t get it.

Anyway, the day after I submitted my “Flicker” LE fan fic I submitted another one, and this one has humor. Lol, I loved writing it. It’s another one-shot, about various people’s thoughts on Dio. Takes place during the 14th episode, “Etude Lavie” when Dio and Alister rescue Claus and Tatiana. If you want to read it, here’s the link. http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2207859/1/

Eh. I added ‘Photoshop Doodles’ to my site. They started out as doodles in various school notebooks, and then I fiddled and colored them in Photoshop. Not good enough to be posted in as fan art, but I like them. The one of Bakura some of you have seen already, but the Sakura one I just finished.

I have 3 projects to do this weekend...so why am I posting? I’m such a procrastinator....

LE Spoilers: Don’t read if you don’t want the ending spoiled
About a week ago I watched the last LE DVD. My reactions to the last episodes were rather emotional, lol. But since I didn’t have time to post until now you didn’t have to be subject to my rantings.

Now that I’ve had time to think, I’ve realized that the ending was okay. (Delphine died in a very satisfactory way. Go Alex!)

*sigh* I wish they hadn’t of killed certain characters..*sniffle* I miss Lucciola...but I do think Dio is alive. Call me a hopeless optimist, but we did hear his voice on the ship, after he was in the Grand Stream, and then a post card that comes with the last DVD has him walking into a scene that takes place after his “death.”

Danielle’s holding me accountable for her grief. She only cared for 3 characters, and they all died (or supposedly died). And why in the world is Mullen alive? Lol, not that I mind, I liked his character okay, but Donya was crying her heart out in that one scene...I guess she leaped to the wrong conclusion. Well, yay for Mullen and the Mullen mutchkins we see at the very end. ^-^

I finally finished a LE fanfiction! It’s very short, and has angst (I don’t know if I write angst well). Takes place during ep 20, right after the birthday party, but before Dio joins Claus in the vanship. It’s basically Lucciola’s thoughts on Dio’s mental health.

Here’s the link if you’re interested. (And if you want to review, go ahead, anyone can review even if you’re not a member. *hint hint*) http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2206462/1/

“Look, a new world has come...”
*is singing along to ‘A New World Has Come’ on LE soundtrack* Heh, I can’t sing. ^^;

I was reading various other MyO members posts, and they made out well on Christmas. All that anime stuff...lucky....-_-

I don’t usually get what I want on holidays. *shrugs* Don’t know why, but that’s how it is. (I do tell people what I want, but...) I did get two things I wanted though- an art portfolio, and LOTR:ROTK Extended DVD version. Yay! Had more funny Legolas and Gimli moments, lol. And some short Faramir and Eowyn encounters! Huzzah! They are my fav LOTR couple, and when they weren’t in the normal version, I was saddened.

My sister got me ‘The Art of the Hunchback of Notre Dame’. As some of you know, I’m obsessed with that movie. So I was very happy to receive that gift. It is very beauteous. ^___^ Clopin has his own short section in it. (Is it wrong to love a fictional Disney character?)

Also, I’m not broke anymore. I can pay off various debts, and have some money left over to buy the last LE DVD. Hopefully.

My LE Christmas pic got a better reaction then I thought it would. Thanks to all of you who voted and commented.

“There’s only one more sleep till Christmas...” -Muppet Christmas Carol
Submitted my LE Christmas fan art. It’s not that good, but I’m proud of it all the same because I didn’t have anything to look at, it’s totally my pic.

Watched episode 8 of ‘Record of Lodoss War’. Was interesting. I think I might look into it, and maybe when I have money again, see if I can buy a DVD. But is it even on DVD? I’ve heard there’s only 13 episodes. And it’s kinda old...

Also watched ‘Grave of Fireflies’. It is so sad....*sniffle*

It’s Christmas Eve (as I’m sure you’re aware) but it doesn’t feel like it. We have our tree up, and it’s decorated, but we still have lots to do before tonight. *sigh* Much much work.

I stayed up to almost 3:00 last night (or this morning. Whatever) writing three pages of a YGO fanfic that has no future, lol. So many ideas...a couple days ago I posted a X-Men Evo one-shot fan fic on fanfiction.net. It’s about Rogue, set during Christmas Eve. So if you like X-Men Evo, check it out if you want. Same pen name as my identity here.

I think I may have finished a LE fic lit. Only two pages. I’m not so sure about my LE writing skills though, so I might never post it. Ah well.

I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas. ^-^

New CD
No new fan art, going to submit my LE Christmas pic tomorrow, or the day after. But I had to post: guess what I got today? I’m listening to it right now. ^___^

The Last Exile soundtrack, the O.S.T.2 one, with Claus on the cover. Drea gave it to me as a Christmas gift. I hugged her randomly throughout the day. And I’m not really a hugger type of person. *listening to beautiful music* Happiness...

Tomorrow is the last day of school before break. Yay! I just finished wrapping presents and making cards, so I’m all set.

Lol, I bought a YGO pen today. I couldn’t resist, it lights up when you click it. I now have a large collection of above normal pens....hopefully my fellow classmates won’t be obsessed with this one, like they are with my Spiderman bobble head pen. Poor Spidy, his head is all messed up now.

One more day of school...thank God...

Advances in Photoshop
Finally posted the pic I was working on for so long in photoshop. I still see little things I could do to fix it, but I’m nitpicking, and I decided just to post it anyway. It’s Dio, (big surprise, lol), titled ‘Nonchalant’. I saw that pose of his, and wanted to draw it, so I did. Yay.

I also finished a LE Christmas pic, but I’ll submit that closer to Christmas. ^-^

I doodled a YGO fan comic today. Just pen on graph paper, but I might redraw it and post it. If I do, and you see it, just remember that I have an odd sense of humor...
