This week is going well. It's like the relaxing week where we don't have too much work. I think the school does that to prevent suicides, lol. Last week was so crappy so its nice to have time to do art. The bio quiz went well, math I think I did ok, and physics... well I teared up while I was writing it and sort of broke down. Damn physics. *throws brick*

On the weekend we watched a movie on the floor, then on saturday went shopping and then went out to dinner and saw a movie. (By "we" I mean different people from the floor) We saw slumdog millionare, it was good.

Trades...uhh still open. I get a LOT of people who ask me to do trades then never reply again to tell me what they want. Not sure why. Also some of these trades and contest prizes or contest results (prizes and results for things I've entered) or commissions are taking too long. I mean, I'm patient, but it's annoying to go months without hearing anything. Meh.

Contest prizes are being worked on. Should be able to add some things soon. Also this new digital picture is consuming my life With the gabriella picture, I had like no time to work on it so it took ages. This one seems like its going so fast. It's fun though!


I've never filled this out on here before. This is the "write 8 random facts about yourself" quiz/ tag thing. I was tagged by ~Leedlpuff which gave me an excuse to do it

I don’t like draft horses. I’m ok with fresians and andalusians, but that’s about it. I don’t hate them or anything, but I have issues drawing them for some reason, because I don’t like how they look. Hence the masses of Arabians and thoroughbreds I guess. I also don’t really like mustangs or heavier/ stocky ponies.

I have 4 cats and a dog (at home, not at school) but I don’t really like dogs too much. I know a lot of people on here love wolves; I don’t. It’s like draft horses, I don’t really know why. My cat’s names are Poof, Oot, Bo, and Fuzzum; but they have lots of other nicknames. And our dog’s name is roxy.

A I don’t like art classes and I can’t fathom myself in any art related job, unless it’s doing horse drawing/ sculpting commissions for life, and that’s never going to happen. I’m in school right now doing a BSc, and there’s lots of stuff I’m thinking about. Right now something with psychology/ psychiatry is what I'd like.

I’ve seen evanescence in concert 9 times, and aside from that I’ve seen them 4 times for TV shows or radio appearances, and I’ve met amy lee 5 times ish (I say ish since some were several times in one day at different places, or not really meetings, just sightings or autograph sessions.) So… I am crazily obsessed. I also spend lots of money on tickets and merchandise and the like.

I’ve never had a boyfriend and it doesn’t bother me at all. I like having friends and such around but I always need my own space, and having another person around a lot just seems awkward to me. At this point I really don’t even want to get married.

A lot of my characters are based on my personality. I know I’ve said before that Illyria and Gabriella are like two sides of me or whatever, but each of them has like, one trait. Then Lyric is also based on me a lot (probably more than the other two). Also, this might sound weird, but like 5 years ago when I came up with shadow and lhorvetta, I had a few characters I drew a lot and made up stories for, and shadow had like, two sides. Then when I started making the broken into an actual plot, shadow only has one side, but I turned the other into lyric. WEIRD. Basically the one character got turned into 2… shadow and lyric. That never impacts the story, it’s just a weird tidbit.

I hated high school. That’s probably not shocking to the people I knew there… most of it was alright but grade 12 was really bad. University is awesome though so I guess that makes up for it. There’s still a few people from back home that I miss though.

Right now my hands have brown stains all over them and I don’t think they will come out any time soon. In our chemistry lab today we made cells with silver and copper and the silver stains if you touch it, but not until a few hours later. I guess I didn’t wash my hands well enough. Oops.

Holy crap I really don't shut up. *runs off*
