And I thought college was hard sometimes. Augh. SIX CLASSES IN ONE DAY IS HARD. No, no, not really. I'm just not used to it anymore.

( Heres my current school schedule. )

YES, 3rd and 4th period are the same teacher. I get to move up and down an aisle in his class. Exciting, ain't it? I like the fact that I have art at the end though, and Pre-Calc right after lunch.
( More talk about school. )

( Books )

What else? OH, I love my Art class at the end of the day. It's so relaxing and gives me a chance to do what I love to do – draw. It can be frustrating at times, but eh. It's art. At first I hated it since we were doing nothing but busy work and not even drawing. But now I'm excited. I got to draw a chair – no one else would draw it from the back so I decided to. I thought a lone chair turning away from the viewer would be dramatic. I also drew my hand. Next we're going to draw a person purely from memory or imagination, and then draw a self portrait of ourselves while looking at a mirror. It's hard to do it without looking at just a photograph or picture. This is a pre-instruction drawing to see how much we need to improve. I know we'll be getting this at the end of the year in order to see how better we've gotten. I hope to improve soon. She says her students usually improve within the first three weeks. We'll see. :D

What else? ( Rockband and 90s Nostalgia! )

( Red Hot Chili Peppers - Dani California )

Another hit of nostalgia is One Week by Barenaked Ladies. Another 90s classic that reminds us of the good ol' days, especially the rap/fast parts of the song. I also love the song itself. It's about a couple who had a fight, and though the guy knows he's wrong, and he's making the girl apologize. They're both being stubborn about it and want the other to admit they're wrong, but they know they'll make up again. It's kind of a cute song, and very catchy. :D

MAN, I want Rockband 2 too. A great instrument on Rockband would be the keyboard. Everyone who I've talked to agrees with me. It's hard to have a band without a keyboardist. There's only mic, guitar, bass, and drums. Sometimes people don't even have a bass. D: It'd be cool to play with five people too.

I'd have to get the Wii version. I'd like the 360 version tough since you can play a song with other people online, or play head-to-head against them. That's cool.

I also doodled a small picture of characters playing Rockband, but it's cruddy and nowhere near being finished. It has Razen on bass, Raimi on guitar, Tanitin on drums, and of course, Zilo singing “Are You Going to Be My Girl?”

Also, Creep or whatever it's called is SUCH a depressing song. Me and my friends weren't even into it when playing/singing it, but it made us VERY DEPRESSED anyway. Haha, apparently too, it didn't play on English radio for too long either because it was deemed “too depressing for radio.”

Also, in depressing news,( my grandmother passed away. )

I should probably get to reading these books of mine, or drawing. I sure as hell don't want to do my homework, but I will eventually. Maybe I'll read my Physics book to get that homework out of the way. And maybe US History. But no Pre-Calc. I don't want to graph stuff, and work on this Algebra II Finals Review sheet they gave us. I don't remember Algebra II! D: This is Pre-Calc! Geez!

Anyway, catch you all later. :D CJ out!

P.S. tsuki_idzuna, are you doing anything next weekend? I can't go out THIS weekend due to my parents and sister being over in New York. But next week is a three day weekend! WE SHOULD DO SOMETHING. Maybe we can all get together and play Rockband? I wanna try Wii fit too. XD We should all get together though and PLAAAY sometime. <3 theemojoy can't cuz she'll be gone camping. :P Oh well, too bad fer her? I call mic.

First of all, here's my to-do list. :D It's mostly done. Just got to finish a few more things.

* RP with Des (We're going to RP some more though. :D)
* Get Community College transcript
* Turn in Community College transcript before Wednesday
* Go to school Wednesday and pick up schedule and ID.
* Get X-Ray for hand
* Get blood test
* Get shot
* Get ready for school (August 18)
* Go to TheEmoJoy's sleep over and get ready for it. (Saturday)

Now a fun little questionnaire that I made to - as the title says - to get my creative juices flowing, and so you guys know more about my characters and so others can know a bit more about your's. I thought it'd be fun. :D( Questionnaire/Meme? )Just to warn you though, the questionnaire is VERY long. 3 pages in OpenOffice.

I'll do the questionnaire in a next post once I get off my lazy butt to actually do it with my characters. XD

Here's just a small update. You guys can just skip it and move on if you really want. :D This questionnaire can be used with your comic or story characters as well!

Speaking of RP, me and Des RPed recently. We stayed up late, but it was a great session. Hopefully I'll get to RP with her more tomorrow, and Wednesday, and maybe Thursday and Friday too. :D Then Saturday I get to spend time at theemojoy's house! Woo. :D

Also speaking of RP, look at destroyah_des's journal and at her 'story' tags. Chapter 3 of our little RP is up there, if you guys want to read it. :D

First of all, if you're wondering about the icon: I jumped on the "The Dark Knight" bandwagon and made a Joker-y icon. I made 72 base-icons from screencaps from Majin Tantei Nogami Neuro (Demon Detective Neuro Nogami). This was one of them I made, so I editted some of the colors and went over it in Photoshop (which destroyah_des got me! Thanks a bunch!) with red and green. :D And this is the result. ...It really creeps me out and I kind of regret making the icon now. XD BUT I LOVE IT AT THE SAME TIME. That reminds me though. I really want to see The Dark Knight just for the Joker.

So yesterday was my brother's wedding party. And it was amazing.

Amazing except for all the demon children harassing me, MESSING with my stuff (including my video games), AND harassing my rat. D:<

But other than that, it was pretty good.

theemojoy and tsuki_idzuna came over yesterday. They were the best part of the whole thing. First we went on our laptops in my room. Then we went to the bounce house. We kept doing flips and various other things until we got tired. Then we ate chocolate fondue and other stuff. Then we went back in. I was leaning against the bounce house once and drinking water, and suddenly after TheEmoJoy decided to mention that drinking too much water can make you vomit, I felt like upchucking. I ran to the bathroom, but I felt fine sometime afterwards. I went back to the bounce house and we continued jumping. We got a video of all of us doing flips, including Tsuki doing a flip with the camera.

We also tuned Tsuki's guitar to the best of our ability. The 3 deeper, lower notes sounded good, but the 3 higher ones sounded bad. Especially the highest. I cringed everytime I heard it. Then Tsuki had to leave, and me and TheEmoJoy were both sad because it wasn't as fun without her. Oh well. We played Guilty Gear X2 and then the children started harassing us. (They harassed us especially in the bounce house too. Those little demons were THREATENING to BEAT UP TheEmoJoy. I told them to back off because she actually knew karate.)

They kept harassing me and TheEmoJoy in my room. Eventually I took one of the PS2 controllers from them and connected it to my computer. TheEmoJoy and I began to play Ragnarok Battle Offline on my computer. She kept dying though and taking up the two lives we were sharing. It was a little frustrating. And once we lose our last shared life, the thing just ends. We stopped playing after the Ant Hell level because we both kept dying against the Golems. Then she had to go.

So I started playing card games with my cousins. it was fun. I got to do a magic trick on them. I was surprised I actually did it right. I wanted to do the magic trick on my other family members, but they were too tired for it. :(

Oh well.

I got bored while I was waiting for TheEmoJoy to arrive at my house, so I decided to draw this. I didn't get the shading or shining in until today. I finished the rest of the background and the base colors before she got here though. :D I also added the text, the signature, and some of the other things today. I wanted it to look kind of like a post card. :D

( It's Zilo! )

So list of to-do:
* RP with Des
* Get Community College transcript
* Turn in Community College transcript before Wednesday
* Go to school Wednesday and pick up schedule and ID.
* Get X-Ray for hand
* Get blood test
* Get shot
* Get ready for school (August 18)
* Go to TheEmoJoy's sleep over and get ready for it. (Saturday)

SOO not looking forward to school being this early. AND I need to start my Japanese 2 night class on the 18... OH! SNAP! I GOTTA SIGN UP FOR IT NOW ONLINE. GOTTA GO.

P.S. Neeeck huurts so bad. I cracked it often while flipping. I don't flip right. xD

So yesterday my mom surprised me with an appointment to the doctor. I wouldn't have been so upset about it if she TOLD ME ABOUT IT sometime before, but she only told me the day before, so she completely ruined the plan I had on Monday. My friend wanted to stop by my highschool to see what was up, but I couldn't go. I had to tell her that my mom set up an appointment for me, WITHOUT TELLING ME, and just told me the previous day. And I wasn't even entirely sure when exactly the appointment was, until she told me. And then she actually told me it was half an hour later than she originally told me.

I'm especially offended that it was about my height and she didn't tell me, but she just laughed it off and looked at me as if I were crazy. You know, I'd just LIKE to know if she set up an appointment for me to check something personal such as my HEIGHT.

So they gave me a physical. I'm underweight and underheight (89 lbs. and 5'0") for my age. (What else is new?) So then they said if I wanted to find out more about my height, they'd need an x-ray of my hand for my bone growth and a blood test. I might need some vaccine shot for Menningococcal too, which they recommend for people going into college as freshmen. I'm especially irritated at my mom because of the BLOOD TEST. I didn't think I'd have to do a blood test. I didn't WANT TO do a blood test. She could have told me about this appointment and I wouldn't have been so freaked out about the blood test.

So, I have to get an X-ray this week, which ruins all of my plans for this week. Augh. I convinced my mom to let me get my blood test next monday, because she said I'd have to get it on Thursday, and I did NOT want it on Thursday at all. I didn't want to feel weak and lose that my blood BEFORE MY FINAL.

I hate needles. I hate needles for the life of me. I can stand shots as long as I don't look at them.

But I DREAD blood tests especially. I haven't had one in awhile, but it lasts SO MUCH LONGER, and they actually pull blood out from you so you can feel it.

Also, one of my friends had blood drawn out from her (several things full), and she said she passed out at her boyfriend's house because of it. It was scary. I'm paranoid about that, especially since I'm so underweight and underheight that I can't even donate any blood. D:

I am not looking forward to next week. The X-ray, I don't mind, but it'll still take up my time. Also, apparently my mom is going to stop buying soda. That's great and all, but I'll need like, gallons of different kinds of juices. I need more source of sugar from somewhere.

I felt really weak yesterday for some reason. Maybe it's because I was thinking about that blood test too much, or maybe it's because I didn't eat too much yesterday. It could have been that I didn't get enough sleep or I was staying up too late. Maybe a mixture of all of it. Who knows?

EGAD! I have a Latin test today that I need to study for. And I haven't finished my homework for it! *Rushes to it*

I still need to study for my final too!

Third declensions, pronouns, dative cases, and vocab! I don't know any of these! D:

Today was Thursday. Thankfully, no test in my Latin class today, but two more days of that class. On Tuesday I have a test, and then on Thursday I have the Final. I am dreading it, but me and my friend theemojoy have A-'s. If we get an A or a B on the Final (As my friend put it "Ace it or Base it") we'll be able to keep our A's in the class. So, hopefully we will. I don't have any doubts. :D

I was telling her about what happened yesterday to me, ( Read moar )

In other news, I took some of destroyah_des's advice on the art. I looked at some pictures of Batman: The Animated Series on Wikipedia and freehanded them. I drew Batman and Mr. Freeze. I also drew some pictures of Milo from Atlantis. I was GOING to draw the General, but it was about 1 AM when I was drawing Milo. I looked at the General and realized how hard it would be to copy a picture like that at so late at night. So I just stopped. I showed them to TheEmoJoy. She told me she had to do a backtrack and think about what she saw, because she said she was like "IS THAT MILO?!" Haha. Well, so far, I think I can freehand these drawings nicely, but now to incorporate them into my art. I might just make Zilo my guinea pig and try drawing him in different styles. It'd be good for me.

Edit4: Unlocked for all to see now. In advance, sorry for the language. I just want people to know how I felt yesterday. :|

I feel like I'm under peer pressure at the moment. (Just skip this post if you don't want to hear some ranting. I don't have a post like thttp://www.livejournal.com/editjournal.bml
Edit Journal Entrieshis that often, so sorry in advance.)

( I'm really upset right now... )
I was GLAD to be home as soon as I got home. I got on AIM to see if Des was online, but she wasn't. (I don't blame her, I'm terrible with things.) But I'm really afraid that she might hate me now. I wouldn't blame her for that either, but I hope not. We were really great friends until I made that mistake by letting myself get guilt tripped, and I feel TERRIBLE for it. I'm really sorry. At least I had a shitty time, right? I hope we can still be good friends, Des, and continue our RP sometime.

I hate being an extrovert. But when I try to be an introvert, everyone around me tries to force me not to be. I don't get it. What am I doing wrong? What SHOULD I be? I like BEING an extrovert sometimes, but I want to be an INTROVERT sometimes too. But no one wants me to do stuff by myself. It pisses me off so much.

Edit: (WARNING: Very bad language if you click the cut. It's also lots of SUPER ANGRY ranting.) This reminds me, ( CAPS LOCK IS CRUISE CONTROL FOR COOL )

I was upset this morning because everything was so disorganized. And when things actually come down to it, I am STILL freaking upset because EVERYTHING became disorganized. I can't believe it. They f'd up my entire schedule, and then they wanted me to f it up even more. As great as a friend Nathan is for coming to California, NO. Just NO, okay?

They need to lay off my f'ing back and let me BE for a bit. AUGH.

Yet I still tag along with them and hope things will turn out for the better, because I'm their friend. And I'm easily guilt tripped and swayed by them. Do they even realize my FAMILY hates them too, and hates the shit that they're MAKING ME do? Like, staying out this late with them?! Augh.

I fucking hate myself for being nice.

End of ranting, end of edit.

Edit 2: I'm mostly calm now, but I'm still really irritated at my friends. My friend Nathan wasn't really apart of the whole peer pressure/guilt tripping thing, but the others were. I can't really hate my friends, but that doesn't mean they can't make me feel uncomfortable or piss me off. (Which is what my three friends IRL did today.) (I'm too forgiving and nice, I know. D:)

( Drawings~! )

Well, now I need to run and get ready for whatever my friends plan on doing today.

EDIT: Here's another small thing for you guys. A drawing I did of realistic Leben until I really figured out his character sheet. http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g225/crazynekorun/LebenFlussReal.jpg He's wearing a light blue shawl thing that priests always wear too. But normally, he actually doesn't wear that... and after he loses his church, he especially doesn't wear that. But you can see the rest of his colors this way now. His priest outfit is dark blue instead of the traditional black.

EDIT 2: Still waiting around for my friends. Vos feels really sick but she's starting to feel better so I don't know if we're going to the mall or not. If we are anyway, I told my mom I'd be back by 5 or 6 PM. (Since it was originally supposed to be that I'd be out for 5 or 6 hours, and my mom didn't want me to be out for any longer.) Hey Des, if you see this at all, maybe we can get some RP in during then? Just a small suggestion, if you'll be on. Sorry if it's so sudden - my friends and I just determined things late last night.

Woo! My friend from Illinois arrived here earlier today. He's staying at my friend's house. (Deft's house, mentioned below)

His airplane was an hour delayed though, so we waited a long while for him. But once we picked him up from the BART station, we hanged with him at deft_gaming's house. Me, Deft, my Illinois friend Nathan, and our driving friend Vosailyn all played Super Smash Bros. Brawl at Deft's house until I had to go to my Latin class.

Pretty much, in general, Vos and Deft were the top two players, and me and Nathan were the bottom two. I actually got to 2nd place many times, but when I had to face Deft in a Sudden Death match, he'd own R.O.B. D: I don't care - my little robot owns! I always use R.O.B., Snake, and Wolf. R.O.B. and Snake especially for their high jumps and sneaky/powerful attacks.

All of us are going to go somewhere tomorrow - we just aren't sure yet. So far it's an arcade, but we aren't sure what arcade. So that means I'll just need to bring some money - not video games this time. I hope we go to the mall maybe - they have Guilty Gear X2 at the arcade in the mall, and I need to kick Nathan's butt at Guilty Gear. D:< He's gotta feel the power of Ky's shocking moves! Or even Faust's craziness. Bwahaha. We didn't get a chance to play Guilty Gear at Deft's place, even though I brought my copy of the game and my memory card. Haha, at least in the arcade version of the game I can't be cheap and use Robo-Ky. Robo-Ky is really beserk and crazy and on crack like Chipp Zanuff, I swear.

Now I feel like I want to draw Leben as Ky and Wissen as Faust. Ky and Faust are my favorite characters. Faust especially. I just love that crazy doctor? :D

My friend theemojoy got me a copy of the Aeneid. Oh my gosh, it is LONG. TWELVE BOOKS. DARN IT VIRGIL LEARN HOW TO MAKE THINGS SHORTER. Man, the huge book version of the Diivne Comedy is shorter, but then again it is three books long. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is six books long (I believe) and bigger than the Aeneid. Haha, and I'm only on the 2nd book of that series. I need to read more.

ALSO, she can come to my brother's wedding party! WOO! I'm excited. :3 We're going to have fun in the jumping house.

I RPed with destroyah_des last night. The most we were able to do was a thing between Cope and Leben. We wanted to do more but it turned out to just be longer than expected. It was fun though. Now we got to wait for at least two weeks or so until we can RP again, unless my friends give me time to actually do something else. Since Nathan is visiting from Illinois though I don't really want to leave him by himself after visiting from so far. Still - I want to RP though. D: Ah well. I guess we'll see when things happen. No one has anything planned ahead of time, so it's hard to say. @___@

What else? I got a C on my last Latin test. Thankfully it wasn't a D, but I have an A- in the class. I have to keep up that A- by doing good on the next test and the final. I don't want to get a B - I know I can do better. I just have to work on those endings again and some of the new grammar from this week. Hopefully I'll be able to get it down. I got a C on the last test because I put the GENITIVE case endings instead of the Dative ones. Augh, that frustrates me now. At least I got it all right if it were genitive. Ahaha.

Speaking of the RP earlier, I have some pictures I drew of Des's characters. I drew a small picture of Solan (nothing special, just a drawing) that I'll scan when I have time to, and I also drew a picture of one of her characters (Caroline Cope, who's actually not alive anymore and isn't in the RP) being angry at Leben. And Leben deserves it! He broke Cope's laptop because he got so angry. Man, I'd be angry at him too! I'd be PISSED. I'd kick him straight out of my house. But Cope's nice and he let him stay after he apologized. Cope's wife, Caroline, if she was still around, wouldn't let that happen. She'd definately kick Leben out on his little behind and that would be the end of Cope and Leben's friendship. xD Haha, so I drew a picture of Caroline pretty much telling Leben to get out of the house. And Leben agrees to; he's SCARED. I'd be scared of Caroline too after I broke Cope's laptop.

So yeah, I guess that's it for now. After a long day, I'm pretty tired. I might go to bed soon. My friends need to call me and figure out what they're going to do. I'm up for whatever, of course. We considered going to a water park, but Deft's girlfriend has a church thing going on so we can't. And they wanted to originally go on Thursday, but I have my Latin class. And I can't skip that - Latin's too hard to skip, and I only have a few days left!

Also, theemojoy wants Nathan to come to school so she can say hi or something. XD I don't think her parents will let her out of the house to hang with us at all. D: That's sad, 'cause we'd like to play Super Smash Bros with her, or play at the park.

I need to draw more stuff relating to the actual RP. So far, all I've done is OOC art related to the RP. (The Wissen, me, and Owen picture, and the picture of Leben and Caroline I have to scan still.) I need to do more serious pictures - but those always take up lots of time, so it'll be awhile.

No no, but a kid really actually did get mustard on my hair at my cousin's party. That kid was lucky I was having a good time playing Super Smash Bros. Brawl, otherwise I would've kicked his scrawny behind. I really wouldn't have cared if he APOLOGIZED and had MANNERS. But no, he insisted it was an accident and didn't even say sorry. So my sister and one of my cousins started talking crap about the kid and the mom. And the kid's mother was in the same room - didn't even care! Augh. Some people need to teach their kids. I don't think that kid even learned his lesson. As soon as I got home I had to wash my hair. I guess it's better that he got it on my head than my cousin's couch. *Grumble*

What else can I say? Oh, this little guy kept beating me and my cousin in the game. We were sore losers about it and kept trying to beat him. Half the time, the little boy kept winning though. And the rest of the time, me and my cousin switched off when winning. That kid sort of..scared me though. He reminded me of a smaller, younger version of Zilo except with highlights in his hair. And he actually KNEW what he was doing in the game. My sister said he must have owned it himself. But wow, this kid was smart. Then again, he was using Pit, who is really cheap, but he knew when to use the shield at the right time. I'm impressed.

Oh man, I also REALLY want that new Freakazoid DVD out. I haven't seen that show in FOREVER, but Freakazoid was one of my favorite 90s shows. That and Animaniacs. And who doesn't make a joke towards Pinky and the Brain once in awhile? That reminds me, when looking up Freakazoid, this popped up as the second result on YouTube. http://youtube.com/watch?v=2NLrjVnMO7k I barely remember this episode too.

But yeah, I loved Freakazoid. It was so weird, and I also like how the main character was somewhat of a nerd. :P Man, I barley remember anything of that show though except for the intro. I really want the DVD though, or I at least want to rent it or something. :D To reminisce.

Let's see.. In other news, I need to make up a Wissen layout. I just can't come up with a proper header picture though. I also want to draw a lot for this RP that me and Des are doing. I have so many ideas to draw, but I can't get off my lazy butt and draw something decent. One thing that happened lately that I want to draw is a beaten-up Wissen, but that'll be some trouble. I really would like to draw it though. Yes, Wissen got beaten up, and I enjoyed it! :P

So far, I just drew a quick picture of Wissen, Des's character Owen, and myself. I didn't touch it up or anything (So there's a few really awkward lines in the picture) and I didn't bother to color it really nicely at all, so there's a lot of white spots. But here it is anyway.
( Ein Glas Kaffee, bitte? )

I figure, since Wissen's going to have water powers pretty soon, and Owen has fire powers... They should be able to make a few cups of coffee together, right? Or some instant noodles. :D

I have a feeling after that they'd probably beat me up, or easily punt me. Wissen's 6'0", Owen's 6'3", and I'm 5'0". D:

Also, that isn't exactly what I look like. I didn't use a reference at all for any of the characters - even my own. And Wissen's been giving me lots of trouble lately to make him kind of realistic. Leben's been easier. Thankfully Wissen's features are mostly hidden, due to his mask and huge collar. :D Yay! But the hair cut is still giving me a teeny bit of trouble though. Mostly from a profile view. Also, yeah, I know. Owen's bigger than Wissen right now. I was trying to make him look taller and I failed epically. So let's just say Owen's closer or something. :P

What else? ...Two more days until my friend comes to Cali! He's packing today and he's going to go and stay with a friend tomorrow. On Tuesday he'll have to leave at 8 AM his time (6 AM my time), and then I'll get to hang out with him a little on Tuesday before my Latin class starts. I'm so excited still. :D Hopefully I'll get to kick his butt in DDR again and get another video of it. >:D

I suppose that's it for now. Me and Des are going to RP some more tomorrow, since that's the only time I'll really be able to for a long while. Maybe I should clean my room now and stop procrastinating so I can spend more time out with my friend.

ALSO, I really want to learn how to ride a bike, and then I found out my parents gave our's away. I might have to borrow my friend's bike and learn. And my mom is still demanding for me to take Driver's Ed. I'll only take it if one of my friends go with me and suffer too, though! D:

With my characters all over again, out of pure boredom. Just skip over this post and look at my last one for better information.

http://mct421.deviantart.com/art/Question-Meme-Generator-69266481

( 10 Random Questions with my characters! )

Also, me and Des's RP earlier today was awesome! Wissen pretty much got ownt, and I enjoyed every minute of it. I'm very sadistic to my own characters. I should feel bad. I was telling my friend that Wissen was getting beat up, pretty much..and he had this to say:

My Friend: Poor Wissen
My Friend: He's so abused XD
My Friend: I can't believe the words "Poor Wissen" even comes outta my mouth. XD

I just started laughing then. Wow. Haha, my friend always gets on my case for letting this stuff happen to my characters, or doing it to them. So I got on his case a little for pitying Wissen. "It's Wissen! Why should we feel bad for him?" And he just agreed with me. :P

Well don't worry guys. Wissen won't be so helpless anymore, soon. :D Just wait until the next installment of the RP.

Man, I want to draw Wissen all beaten up now, but I'm never good at that sort of stuff. I want to try though! ...After, of course, I can draw Leben, Cope, and Owen properly. I'm still ticked that I made Cope look young. :<

And thank goodness. One more college class to go. (Latin, woo. *sarcastic*)

My finals went pretty well, I think. So, now I get to worry only about Latin. This is good because I'm doing TERRIBLE in Latin. I'm having so much trouble with it. When August comes up, I need to go to my school and pick up a permission form so I can sign up for Japanese 2 during the Fall semester.

My friend wants to do Judo at the community college, but I'm convincing her not to. There's an Aikido class, apparently, nearby, so I want her to take it with me. Aikido is much better than Judo in my opinion. Judo looks just like wrestling and is mainly for competition. Also, it looks like people get hurt more in Judo and have risk of passing out (due to some of the holds). Aikido is much better for someone of my size, in my opinion. The first thing they teach you in both is how to properly fall. But in Aikido, you use your opponent's force and momentum against them, thus flipping them over. I thought was neat and the least violent form of self defense, so I definately want to learn it. Haha, I like the idea of flipping over people twice my height, too!

I just went to the dentist about an hour or so ago. They checked me up and my next appointment there will be a clean up. No cavities, but apparently my wisdom teeth are all on my left side. One of them is GROWING ON IT'S SIDE. I was freaked out when I saw it. The other is going to push against one of my molers if I keep it. I want to get both pulled out though. I hope they put me out before they pull it though. I heard they do it only if they pull out four - not just two! Man, I don't want to be awake during that. D: ...Oh well. At least no cavities, so that's good?

Four days until my friend from Illinois comes west! I got to find a way to hang out with him next week and the week after that. It'll be great to hang with him. I got to find a way to implement Latin studying and cleaning up my room into that too.

Oh, yes! My brother's wedding. They're having a party at our house after the legal wedding (it's not a big fancy one. Just in the court house). Did I mention that already? I can't wait. There's going to be a BIG pool party at our house, and a HUGE bounce house. I'm giddy and childish right now. I just LOVE bounce houses. I haven't been in one in forever, so I can't wait to go jump around in it. Haha, and if my friend theemojoy can actually make it, we'll have so much fun. We'll swim, we'll jump around, and then we'll just relax in my room, use the computer, and play the Wii. :D

What else can I say for now? Not much. I tried drawing Leben and Cope from me and destroyah_des's RP. Leben didn't fit on the paper, and I think I made Cope look too young. Ahaha. Maan, I need so much more practice and bigger paper. I might just tape two pieces of paper together. I'm that desperate.

I also make Wissen look super super suuuper young whenever I draw him. Wissen needs to look more intimidating in my drawings too.

And darnit, Zilo! Stop popping in every other drawing of mine. As much as I like you buddy, get out of my head. You're such an attention hog.

Speaking of my Defenders of Heart characters, I dressed up as Razen yesterday for the last day of Japanese class. Everyone exchanged contact information and took pictures together. We must have been the only college class that was going to miss each other. Haha. It was great though. I think I was the only one dressed up in any bright clothes. Everyone was wearing extravagant black clothes (CRAZY PEOPLE! This is California!). Meanwhile, I wore my long sleeved blue long coat with the yellow zipper. It was great.

I tried to do my hair just like Razen's too, but it didn't work out very well. I'm not good with mousse or hair gel. I also need lighter hair to be Razen, sadly. But oh well. And I need to lose the glasses. I have the best eyes for him though - a nice dark brown, and my eyes are soft and roundish shaped so they give off my gentle nature, which is what Razen is like. I should have brought along a little magic wand too, but I didn't have enough time. Ah well.

I was able to get a lot of songs from my friend's MP3 player. So I have a huge playlist now. I should probably grab a lot of music from my desktop though, and my external hardrive. I'll see later.

Sorry LiveJournal, I'm leaving you for some more RP. :P At least you can count on me to update a bit more since English and Japanese aren't taking up my time. :D

..This reminds me, I have to work on my DoH comic again sometime.

I'm a bad student, I know. But I can't help it. Besides, I don't think I'll be able to update the rest of today. D:
( Long entry is looong... )

Anyway, that's a major update for now. Damn, I wrote a lot while I was bored in this Japanese class. I guess I'll push enter for now. :P

The Goddess of CJism won't allow this college work to overpower her! PRAISE CJ!

Okay, I'm done with that nonsense.

So, I finished most of what I could with my research paper. And thank goodness. For the first few hours, I thought I was on the right track. And then I realized the paper was about something else and mentally kicked my face in. But I finally got what was required to be done. Since it's a group research paper (and it's still the draft), I sent it to my other group members to look at and do the citations. I'm not good at citations at all.

So apparently I can't concentrate well on a paper with my creative juices flowing. My mind kept going back to when I saw Harry Potter on TV not too long ago. I was thinking of how I could put certain characters into Hogwarts.

Of course, everyone would be suddenly turned into a kid, just for the laughs. Wissen Fluss and Leben Fluss would be cousins. Wissen goes into Slytherin, Leben goes into Ravenclaw. Razen also goes into Ravenclaw. Tanitin and Raimi Aldine are going into Gryffindor (to be like Fred and George even though they're a year apart), and..well... Zilo just seems like the perfect Hufflepuff.

So while I was procrastinating on my paper, I drew Zilo's reaction to being a Hufflepuff. When I was younger I always considered Hufflepuff the stupidest of the houses. I always liked Ravenclaw because they were the smartest. Usually I organized them as Gryffindor being the most courageous, Slytherin being the jerks and purebloods, Ravenclaw being the smarties, and Hufflepuff being the idiots.

Of course, Zilo has the exact same thing in mind, so his reaction to getting into Hufflepuff is, "Oh, you guys F***ING suck." And Tanitin and Razen are just laughing about it in the background.

I can imagine Tanitin, Zilo, and Raimi all teaming up (Despite Zilo being in a different house as them) to cause trouble at Hogwarts. Tanitin's the brains of the group and makes bets with other students and such to make money. Raimi is the psychic, so he's not really that smart but he cheats off of everyone else and knows what everyone's thinking. Zilo? ..Eh, he just wants the attention, and it's better than doing wizard work. ;D It's way more fun anyway.

Wissen, Razen, and Leben would be the quiet, studious type. Tanitin would be quiet and studious too, but his older brother would drag him everywhere. Zilo and Raimi are both extroverted and..well, like to get into trouble. I can just imagine Zilo easily getting in trouble for sleeping in class. And he'd just smile and say he was resting his eyes. Tanitin and Raimi would get into trouble for gambling, and both would blame each other.

Raimi would point at Tanitin and exclaim, "HE DID IT!" while Tanitin would calmly point back and reply, monotone, "He did it."

What else? Oh, me and destroyah_des are SO excited! We can't wait to start on the next part of the RP. We were talking about doing so many alternate storylines too. Haha, it'll be great. I want to do so much art for it, but it's hard. I'm still trying to get out of drawing anime-style for her characters especially. It's still hard for me to draw while I'm in college classes though. No time to draw - I just have to keep taking notes and browsing other sites during a lecture. This is my last week for two of my classes though, so I'll be able to draw more after this.

So far, her character Solan and my character Wissen has met. And Solan scares the CRAP out of me, out of all her characters. He's so calm, and cold, and he knew so much about Wissen it was so scary. Just think if Wissen meets Davon too! Man.

Wissen's pretty creeped out too. Solan knew Wissen pretty much lived by himself and only had enough furniture for himself. ...Solan brought his own fold up chair and table in the briefcase. I swear, the first thing I thought was, "How much can he FIT in that thing?!" Haha. Also, I didn't notice this until Des mentioned it to me, but Solan also knew about Wissen's germophobic habits. I'll have to have Wissen notice that later on and realize that Solan knows a LITTLE too much about him than what he's comfortable with.

What will happen next? We'll see in the next installment of this RP!

In other news, I should probably finish the rest of my homework, so I guess this is it for now. See you all later - I'll probably update for tomorrow~!

P.S. I have Popcorn stuck in my head. I totally blame Des for this for providing the MP3. :P

Bring out the streamers and confetti - I only have one more week of college classes!
( Read more... )

Enough of my ranting. I'm going to leave the rest of you to start RPing. :P LATER.

So me and my friend made names for my dragon characters.

Armaloech, the sarcastic, mean, and sneaky black evil Western dragon that breathes fire.

And Aequor, the calm, friendly, curious, and clueless Eastern water dragon that sticks to pretty much one big lake in a forest. Aequor apparently means the sea, in Latin. It also means to calm or to smooth.

Aequor eats only fish and is addicted to human food. He acts a LOT like a pet.  He especially likes sushi - raw fish and yummy white human grains! :DDDD

Armaloech eats people, especially young maidens for a snack.

I feel like I still don't have enough characters. Maybe I should just keep working on a back story for all of my characters. I have one for the Fluss family, which is based on the MMORPG Ragnarok Online. I can MOSTLY change it to fit more of a modern Earth storyline. It's not that hard.

It'd be fun to develop the Rekenber Corporation to an Earth setting. I can only imagine Wissen in a smoky city like L.A. or something.No wonder he wears that mask of his all the time. Nah, even so, no matter where he is, he always wears a mask. He thinks humans are disgusting, that's all.

....I'm just rambling on, people. I'm pretty bored, and there's nothing to do. Not much RP going on. Speaking of which, I posted something on my new RP community too, as Zilo. If you guys are interested in it. :D *Shameless advertising*

I need some new RP or something, somewhere. Let's see... Earlier today, I was RPing Wissen. Some guy was begging him for help with some wound or something. He got blood all over Wissen's lab coat and he GRABBED HIS ARM. The guy grabbed WISSEN'S ARM. You don't TOUCH Wissen. Wissen was PISSED. So he agreed to help him. The guy claimed to be immune to all poisons, but Wissen injected it into him anyway. :D And he made sure there were air bubbles in there too. And the guy, OOCly, completely avoided the death. How lame.

But that was amusing, to say the least. Afterwards, Wissen felt terrible about it though. He didn't feel terrible that he killed the guy. He felt terrible because he probably ruined all of the organs with what he injected into that noob. He was regretting about ruining the ORGANS. He was like "I should have preserved them! DAMNIT FLUSS."

Wissen isn't crazy. ;O I swear. He's just..misunderstood?

Besides, he's not a DOCTOR. Even with that mask. He's a scientist. :<!

Speaking of my new RP community, I need to make new characters for that. And further develop the Admin/Mod characters and their stories too. I might just post as my other characters on there whenever I get bored. I can imagine Wissen advertising for new lab assistants at Rekenber Corp. "They mysteriously went missing, or mysteriously 'quit'! We could use a lot more interns..."

I just imagined Wissen with a hell of a lot of mythological creatures in his lab. I swear, one day you'll find my water dragon in a tank there, several mermaids, and he'll probably be working on cutting out a mermaid's heart on one of those little silver tables with the straps on them.

And so, Leben and Zilo are being emo in the corner for being ignored. Leben's a little upset that his dad is the one getting the most attention..and the fact that I freakin' LOVE Wissen. Wissen just left Leben behind and just totally ignores him. He's disappointed too that his son is a priest instead of a scientist like him. D; He claims to have no son but his sheep! Leben never got to hold hands with his father or hug him when he was younger. Wissen hates physical contact with humans.

Zilo? He's just upset about not being the center of attention. :<!

I should probably upload some new pictures eventually. But I'm too lazy to scan things. I will if I ever decide to finish something.

I'm such a procrastinator...XD

OH! And I almost forgot. This is the last entry of today, but it's just to advertise my new community...

An RP community in which it is supposed to be an online community forum. xD

It's called The Spider Web.

Go check it out? It'll develop a storyline later on.

Have your characters post as their own online persona? And we'll see where it heads.

And I'm not talking about the heat or the constant wild fires either.

School ended a long while ago and my college classes have started. I'm taking Japanese, English College Composition, and Latin. Just took my Latin midterm. Latin is TERRIBLY HARD. English is a lot of work, and Japanese barely takes any effort since we're only learning how to speak it, not write it.

I made a lot of new college friends so I'm excited. A few of them can draw too, so yaay. I borrowed a couple of books from two of them. One of them is helping me draw dragons and stuff too. I'm excited.

I have a LOT of new characters too since I last updated. Let's see if I can remember them all...

Leben Fluss
Wissen Fluss and Morgen Fluss
Rosa Fluss
Felix Felicis
Ema Thornwind (Ami Adenth)
Pfefferminz "Pfeffer" Frisch (RPed by a friend) and Minze Frisch (Fraternal Twins)
X
Unnamed Sea Dragon
Unnamed Black Dragon
Unnamed Naga that splits at the torso into a male and a female.
Various Human-versions of Heartless

So far that one of my favorite has to be the Fluss family. Leben Fluss is a super religious man who's usually really calm and keeps his cool. He gets flustered around girls.

Wissen's his father whose appearance hasn't changed in the last twenty-five years. He was supposedly dead, along with his wife, the last ten years (When Leben was 10. He's 20 now), but apparently he's alive now. He is one INSANE scientist. He takes notes on practically everything, and will be subtle when getting information out of a person. He'll see how people react to certain things and make certain conclusions.

Did I mention he keeps his wife(Morgen Fluss)'s dead body with him? He jarred all of her organs (even her ovaries), and keeps her heart in a jar hanging from around his neck. His coat looks a lot like a straight jacket..or a chef jacket. XD He even kept his wife's body and stuffed it himself.

And he freaks out whenever someone gets near where he keeps the dead body. (In a little cart). He especially freaks out when someone touches her. XD

Let's see what else.. OH! He has a pet experiment sheep he calls Wolle. Wolle is full of awesome. I'll just say that. Wolle is way better than any dog or cat as a pet. ('cept my own cats and dog, of course.)

Rosa's Wissen's older sister. She's... got a really big ego.

OH, and Wissen wears a flu mask / doctor's mask all the time. He is EXTREMELY germophobic/bacteriophobic. He will TRULY freak out if someone attempts to, or actually does, remove his mask. He will writhe on the ground SCREAMING. And then go to his lab, take a nice good shower, and get an air tank to breath from.

As you can tell, one of my favorite characters I've had so far is Wissen. Leben's great, but Wissen's insanity keeps me coming back for more. Sadly, he's not very strong, so he can't make it far without help. But another friend's RP character, who is Wissen's childhood friend, has a lot of muscle. He helps do stuff for him in exchange for monay. ;D

And yes, those are German names. Fluss means River. Morgen means Morning, or Tomorrow. Rosa means Pink, Wissen means Knowledge or "to know" (as a verb), and Leben means Life. 8D

They're all my RO characters but they can be adapted to something else.

Hell, Leben was being RPed with a guy who played a game with him. He answered all the riddles wrong and got turned into a tree in an RP. It was awesome?

What else....

I saw Hellboy 2 today. It was good, but not as good as the first one. I still liked it though. Not exciting enough though. But very funny. PREPARE FOR A DRUNK ABE, PEOPLE. xD

So, yeah..first of all, sorry for the lack of updates, people. My desktop computer hates my internet and will connect for a tiny bit... before shutting down again. Also, my sister's laptop that I'm using now likes to randomly overheat and shut off, so..that's a bad sign too. So I wasn't able to really update my LJ too much until I decided to right now.

Let's see, updates...

I have SUPER SMASH BROS. BRAWL FOR THE WII. And it is AMAZING. I got all the characters already last week. It is a blast. I have a few favorite characters, I'll admit: Pit, Sonic, Wolf, and a few others. It's especially a blast to play online or with four people. What can I say? Wow. Totally met my expectations, totally worth waiting in line for, 15 minutes after midnight. Amazing...

What else did I manage to get..? Oh, Professor Layton and the Curious Village for DS. It's a puzzle game that I am SO close to beating. It's really challenging and tests your common senses and your mind with different puzzles and riddles. It's great. The story is amazing too. When you solve the mystery of the village of St. Mystere, you'll be caught by surprise. I know I was. I TOTALLY didn't expect what happened. It has GREAT, animated cutscenes as well. The English voices are amazing too. AMAZING art as well...Well done game. Check it out when you can! I can't wait for the second game to come to America..

Did I mention the puzzles were hard? One puzzle took me over 20 minutes to solve. This one is taking me much longer... But I'll get there!

Did I mention I thought I had mono for a bit? Someone in my class thought they had mono and were gone for awhile. Then I got sick and I thought I had mono as well. However, they only had infections - sinus infection, viral infection, and eye infection. I just have sinus infections due to allergies. >< Augh, now I have to take Mucinex and antibotics. Oh well.

ALSO, Spring Break in less than a week! I get out of school early on Thursday and I have no school on Friday at all.

I also need to try and email the colleges I want to go to, to see what they suggest for a student that's graduating early from highschool.. And I want to probably visit the campuses somehow during Spring Break.

AND, I've been improving my realism a lot lately, and my art in general. I'll try to show as soon as possible - once my desktop cooperates with me...

Shoo away those necromancers people. Stomp on all those worms and other sorts of decomposers. I'm back and better than ever! Well, maybe the previous statement was a lie. But at any rate, I'm back. So time to update about my life.

So, where've I've been? Uber busy with school, of course. Highschool is pretty hard man. We've had essays, projects, etc. You name it. Not only that, recently, I decided that high school was boring me so I was going to graduate a year early. That's right, I'm graduating next year. Had to set things up with my counselor and I still need to set up a route I hope to take right after highschool. Definitely going to an art college, no doubt. ...But which of the many in San Francisco should I go to? It's hard.

I've done a lot of art lately and I've been trying to improve my style. I've been attempting realistic art - it's hard without a reference. I can probably do a decent job of looking at a picture and trying to recreate it. To make one from scratch is just really difficult though. But I'm trying.

My school has an online newspaper now! It's a really bad idea and it's not really going anywhere, but just thought I'd let you guys know. I think it's stupid. <<

I have a lot of new games lately, especially on Nintendo DS. Also, I hope to get Super Smash Bros. Brawl on the Wii. I preordered it already. :P Anyone else planning on getting it? Wanna go head-to-head online? <___< You know you wanna! But if not, if anyone has Advanced Wars: Days of Ruin on the DS... Lemme know your friend code so I can battle you online! Let's see..Other news, other news... Lots of new characters - pretty amusing ones, actually. An example? Why, I have twin fruit vampires. That's right - twin fruit vampires. You don't see that everyday, eh? I'll show a picture of them eventually, don't worry - once I can manage a more serious picture. On Valentine's Day I tried to make cards to sell. I didn't sell too many, but I sold some, so I'm glad. $2 bucks each, and I made over fifty copies. I had my hopes up and shot down. Ah well. I need to update my comics eventually. I realized that when I was at WonderCon last weekend. I joked to people that I should advertise Defenders of Heart there, but then I realized that I hadn't updated it in forever. So I have some sketches in the works that need to eventually be inked, and perhaps uploaded to my comic site. Oh! And I turned sixteen last month. Hurrah! But I still don't know how to drive yet. I need to take online classes sometime soon. I guess that's all I can think of for now. lots of updates since I was last around. Happy late new year to all. I still have some Christmas money left over - maybe for a new tablet, since mine currently needs tape in order to work. And maybe a yearbook. And brawl. One of those things might not be on the list unless I magically get some money some other way... Anyway, as they say in German... Tschus! Bis dann! Auf Wiedersehn!

And since it's...4:35 AM..I'm gonna head to bed now. Niight. *Collapse on bed*
