I was just tired of having my other journal up.

Everything's better with my mom now, but I just got braces so my mouth is a bit sore. Been eating soft foods and drinking lots of water. Unfortunately, my mom has me working many days of the week, which frustrates my friends who try to get ahold of me to get together to work on cosplay or just to hang out. =/ But I do plan on getting something done this week, if not just planning days that we can get together.

Thanks to anyone who watches me, favs my work, or leaves comments on my page. I thought it was getting a bit repetative to keep saying "No problem" or something similar, so it takes a while to come up with something unique. @.@

I do have a piece I hope to update soon. I'm just looking for a few of the stocks I used. I wasn't smart enough to save the names (lesson learned TT.TT) so I'm going to have to go find them. Hopefully it'll be up soon!

Well, due to unfortunate circumstances (involving bleeding, hospitals, etc.), I ended up working the past 2 weeks at least half the day (sometimes the full 13 hour shift) in the place of my mom at work because she's been sick. That's why I haven't really posted anything or said much. I just came home, looked at any deviations that had been added, and went to sleep.

It looks like I'll be working the next few days (or weeks ToT) as well, so I wouldn't expect much graphic work (and not very good work) to come out of it. I do hope to get started on those cosplays soon. I have a huge list of things I need to do. Stuff like... summer reading (2 of the most boring books ever + hamlet), cosplay (Christy's already done. ;A; that speed deamon), writing the final chapter of my story on fanfiction (I feel so bad because I had already started it and everything...), finishing another manipulation that's been sitting there for a while, and spending some time with my friends (2 of them went to Florida the past week ;-; *envies*).

Well, that's enough self pity and rambling for me. XD Hope to have some time off soon to get started on some of the things I need to do...

Yay, friday the 23rd was our last day of school~

I haven't quite settled into the summer spirit, but I have been to two sleepovers already (yeah, i'm running on low sleep right now ). Plans for the summer... not much.

My mom's making me work 3 half days of the week, which really isn't too bad (I need the money anyways) and I guess I'll be working on cosplay. My two friends and I are planning on cosplaying with Christy ([link]) and her two friends, but characters are still being decided between us. Plus, I'm sure our cosplays will pale in comparison to Christys (she's seriously amazing, you should go check her out and sprinkle sparkles in her wake @_@) Yep. And I have summer reading But that's not much compared to some people.

I'm hoping to post more art soon (not that my art is anything special), so keep an eye out. I've recently gotten interested in manipulation, and I saw the two announcements about it (the tutorials and showcase) and... I think people are like stakling me or something (or maybe I just don't pay enough attention?). (: Anyways, it was super helpful, and I'm hoping to get into it. (Though, if I do, I really want to stick with it).

That's all for now, hope my text blurb didn't bore you too badly.

Yay, so starting Monday, it'll be the last week of school. I have finals on Wed.-Fri., but after that i'm freeee~ (kinda.) Haven't posted a journal or signature/art in a while, so just wanted to assure my ... 10 (?) watchers that i'm not dead.

Anyways, I finished World Ends with You (they lost me near the end with all the text @.@), and it was awesome. Definitely my favorite game for DS so far. I kept up to date with the Bleach manga and anime (liking the new arc even less now T.T).

This summer, my plans are to work on some cosplay and raise money (for cosplay xD). There's a chance I might get to do some sort of group with my friends, but I won't say much at the moment because it's very iffy.

Yep, that's about all. Still drawing dragons (I used to be crazy obsessed with them, and now I remember why they're so awesome!), so expect to possibly see some later. I'm working on a full body one, but my feet skills are so incredibly horrible it pains me to look at them. ;-;

Other than that, I haven't done much lately... besides this picture for my friend (It's half of an inside joke): [link]

Nonetheless, I thought the picture turned out really cute Heh, still practicing my drawing, so don't mind meee....

Thanks for reading, commenting, watching, etc.! I'd give you all cookies, but I don't even have any for myself at the moment...

So today I went out and bought The World Ends with You because I've been hearing that it's amazingly awesome from all my friends. I'm not to far, and it took me (since i'm me) a while to get the hang of the controls, but other than that, it's a really fun game. My favorite part is all the different characters.

To anyone who reads this and cares to know, I do have a Fanfiction.Net account. [link]
I know I haven't updated my story in like... 2 months, but when I do (Really really soon Dx) I'm going to be posting 2 chapters. Getting close to the ending (yay [for me])

A note i'd like to make on the new bleach episode (Aka, the beginning of a long line of fillers x_x'' ). I don't like the new captain at all. The new 3rd seat is okay, but I don't approve of the new captain. Though I do understand that they had to add new people because it's a filler arc, it doesn't make sense because there are so many more qualified people for the position. The only good thing is possibly some more screentime for the lesser known characters (8th squad in particular. X3)

This coming week is going to be tough (end of course tests -dies-) but after that, I might have some spare time to add more art or chapters for my fanfiction. Maybe...

So yep, that's all.
