whoops, where've I been....

Mood: Bored
Listening to At Least We Tried - Moby/Freedom Bremner...I really love bad karaoke-sounding songs.
Watching maybe Beowulf later. I have a feeling it'll be bad....
Reading about Rolly's sad school days. XD
Playing Sims 2, Dofus
Eating bad easter candy... DX
Drinking cream soda (it seems I drink nothing else these days...no wonder I'm turning into a lard-ass.)


Well! It certainly has been a little bit since I've last blogged! (According to the DJSTFC, it is all I do and I should get a life. Strange, since I rarely ever post.) D:

[ennui]
I've been spending my free time playing Dofus again. Yes, DOFUS! I never really wanted to play it because it was too full of morons and too hard to level up, but since they opened the US/Canada beta test server, I jumped aboard. Come on, five times the experience! My Iop character Miel is already to level 25 in only about three days of combined play time, and I've got an Osa boy at level 15 with about three hours of play (and Osas are soooo slow in battles because of their summons). It's wonderful. [laughs, claps] It's also lovely because the world is so wonderfully uncrowded. You can actually move around without a bunch of retarded assholes crowding you and challenging you/proposing an exchange every two seconds.

Also been playing the Sims 2 since I finally got a CD/DVD drive to make up for the busted one on my laptop. [growls] It's been yeeeears since the game came out and only now can I play it. Pathetic! But fun. [laughs] I made a whole bunch of pretty men (and some girls too, yeah) so I'm thinking about renaming my neighborhood MANLAND. D: I even made the Contest boys, but the one who seems to come around most often is Crispin, sitting in people's ugly houses and being angry at their TV sets as random men in bad clothes stalk him. D:



I even made sims of myself and Adrienne. They like to fuck a lot. u_u;;;


[les dessins]
I've been drawing a bit more lately and taking a break from writing, even though I wrote a tiny bit today. Just got irritated at eternally unfinished Little Red Riding Hood story and so finished it, even though the ending sucks...! I'm considering opening my short story blog to the public, but that kinda scares me with all the thieves out there. :\

Right now I'm working on a pretty "big" project. Just a piece of fanart of Iori Yagami (KOF), randomly enough. I don't know why I put so much effort into it, but it's turning out to be one of my better paintings. I really wanted to get used to painting as opposed to simply coloring lineart, and it's turning out pretty well, I think.



Since then I've added more detail to his lips and taken out the lineart (which was just a guide). Next I've gotta shade his clothes, finish his legs (yes, it's actually a full-body picture...isn't that AMAZING?!), and add other details. It's fun to work on but pretty frustrating. It's really rewarding to work on something and see it turning out better than you expected, though. Makes me want to work more than one day on all my pictures from now on. X3


Man, Iori is so cool. D:


[à l'université]
School's been keeping me fairly busy-ish, especially French. Twenty pages of workbook each week is seriously just way too much for my fragile little non-multitasking brain to take...! But these last two chapters were short and easyish so I hope it continues this trend. I've been noticing that the last chapters in the book have close to no vocabulary, so I wonder what's going on. Maybe it's time for VERBS and GRAMMAR. Yesss. Challenging, but a lot more fun than memorizing weird vocabulary words that have to do with North African cuisine, that's for sure. (Seriously, I don't need or want to know how to make couscous....)

I think midterms are coming up soon, though I technically only have a midterm for mythology (my other classes keep to evenly-placed exam schedules) this semester's going by so fast and yet so unbearably slowly. I just want it to be spring break already. Too bad my seme won't be visiting then. [sniffles] I don't want to wait until summer. It's not faaaair. ):


Anyway, I guess that's enough of my boring life for today...!

And? Was Beowulf bad?! I'm sure. [laughs]

Why are you eating Easter candy... .. . .hahaha.

I just deleted Dofus from my computer, whep. Well, I have deleted the folder yet. It has a bunch of sound files and I wonder if those might come in handy! Hahaha. That's stealing though, I suppose. :\

And I'm glad you got a CD drive. I had the feeling you'd never get one, so I'm glad you can play your game now. [nods]

Are there really that many thieves out there?! D: Well, at least no one will ever steal my stuff. Hahaha.

I'm also glad you're drawing. Even though you said you didn't want to anymore. [laughs, shakes head] I suppose I should just ignore it next time you say that stuff. D<

Weeell, I'm not sure I could afford two trips anyway, so I guess you'll just have to be patient. [laughs, pets] It'll be July before you know it! D:

I d'know. Beowulf was...Beowulf. It wasn't that great and I didn't think the animation was actually very good. I saw the Polar Express (shoot me) and I thought that looked a lot better. And I actually liked that movie. .__.;; It was cute, OK! [cries]

I don't know? My mom brought some home. It wasn't even a chocolate bunny. It was just a pseudo-white-chocolate-but-not-actual-chocolate-just-milk-stuff bunny. D:

Dofus has okay music for one of those kinds of games, I think. I still turn it off and listen to my own music, but. Yeah. D: Maybe some of the spell sounds or whatever might be useful. >>

Maaaan, tegaki is kinda depressing! Now I really don't wanna draw anymore! How can people do that kinda stuff with such shitty tools. D: I am. Just not capable! [sobs into hands, which she cannot draw]

It'll be July...and I will be hot and depressed and not in the mood to do anything (well, even less than usual). GOOD TIMING, ASSHOLE. D:

I haven't seen the Polar Express... But I used to love the book as a kid, so no prob. [pats] D: And how can the animation not be good? It was with real people! Hahaha.

I already made one track for my game! Hahaha. I was messing around in that music thingy it came with.. And it had a thunder thing so I made the STORM TRACK. hahahaha But it made it an .m4a file, which ren'py won't plaaaay. D<

All your tegaki stuff looks really nice, so shut up. [laughs] I was thiiiinking of joining. [follows you like lost puppy!] Hahaha.

......>:

But yeah. I'm no good at that stuff, though. I got depressed too. [laughs, pats]

That's not my timing, wtf. Hahaha. Blame your damn comic-con! D: I really should buy the tickets soon. Rawr. D:
