Hello all! It's Ikara-o-Kage in her little world of shadows. Like the moon she has two sides. One the world see most of the time. And one that only a lucky few get to see and know that they have. This is basically my little rant stop. I will post little clips of my life here, a video at the end of each post unless I post from school or haven't been on youtube in a while.

I don't bite though, so go ahead and comment. They make my day.

Now, I leave to read this little glimpse of my story, in all it's infinate glitches...

Well well...

Look what the cat coughed up this morning. Has been quite some time since I even logged in... Originally came back to find something in an archive of my cousin's site, info on an old character of his so I could rewrite a story of mine. Much to my dismay, this lead to finding his site deleted. Since I was here, I figured what the hell, log in, check everything. I'm amazed I've not been deleted for inactivity. o0;

Now... Where to start? Life has been hectic but I've managed to get it... somewhat under control. School is hell, and any 'personal' part of my life is crazy as all get out. o0;

Ehh... Anyway. MySpace, FaceBook, AQW, and many, many, other things have faded from my life. I don't use them anymore. FaceBook even got locked. IMVU I still visit on occasion, KoodoriAkamadoshi if you wish to visit me when I am there. Final Fantasy XI... Let's just say it's going no where anytime soon. >>; I've blazed up the ranks and such, my kitty is actually powerful now... Job levels are as follows...

... x.x Ok, lots of headaches, had to look up my jobs. But anyway! As you see, I've gone a long way since last update, but this isn't FFXI fan-site is it?

As far as my animes and writings, I've fallen gravely behind in both. My lil' red laptop failed me, finally, when the harddrive failed sometime ago. I've since gotten a new one, and already had to wipe the drive from a virus. Sadly, this means I've lost several hundred stories/edits. I have paused my writing to do a lot of reading. The Anita Blake series has claimed my heart, and it's not letting go. The Nightworld series was also rather good, I've kinda lost intrest in it though on the 3rd book, 7th of the total 9 stories I own of it... Kinda disappointed me a bit. You may very well see a wall paper with a quote from one of those two pop up...

Well... I've done enough ranting, I'll leave you be now. Expect a potential story to pop up soon, a rewrite of an old essay from 7th grade (I am now in 11th, Junior!). Perhaps, if lucky enough, you may know some of the people in it... Farewell.

Well...

Good news and bad. The good news is that I have found my beloved cell phone and my glasses. The bad news? Half of my house flooded and I had to clean my room to find them. Yeah, my room, my dining room, my kitchen, my bathroom, and my spare bedroom were all flooded. I hate cleaning up wet stuff, especially paper. Slimy and icky and just 'ew'. Yeah, call me weird, I'll pick up something like a half-eaten dead rat(I have a mouser that sometimes doesn't eat her prey) and toss it outside, by the tail of course, but give me wet paper and I dodge it like the plague. Oh well, that's just me I guess.

~*~*~*~

If you haven't figured it out by now, yes my life has been hectic as of late. Death, floods, company, idea-spasms, and the whole shebang has kept me from updating; which reminds me I need to update MyOtaku as well... Do that when I get home(I am at school now). So yeah. I will also be posting a few mroe storys up tonight. That and I have been going crazy making icons. Yep, Paint has proven it's useful-ness as has the 'Sharpen' tool on GIMP. Make little borders with random colors and then tranfer it to GIMP for a sharpening of 99? Swicked effect when I had taken it from 100x100 to 500x500 just before and gave my self a neat little border for something I don't what is yet. So yeah, I learned something.

~*~*~*~

Well, since the bell is about to catch me. I leave you be. Ta~ta~!

Hi.

Well. I have some descent news. Aside from my last little rant in the post below, My life is actually returning to normal. To those that may have read my post back on 'MyOtaku', yes I still use it, you may know a bit more then the others. If you haven't, well, here it is.

Now, you may also notice that I have been doing a lot of Beyblade fan-works as of late. You can guess what my current obsession is. I am currently watching the anime from the begining, all the way from Season 1 where they look like funky-delic chibis. Along with that I have been reading character profiles and fan-fics for Beyblade out the ass with the occasional tribute video thrown in the mix. Below is one of said videos. Love the song. Love the character. Love the Video. A Must Watch.

I have also been been going crazy on web coding and images. I now have my own website and I update it almost weekly since I do have school and such. I am now on a 4-day weekend so I have some time to get a few things done. I will probably be adding a new layouts and a couple of new wallpapers when I can get them there. I will also be copying all of my wallpapers from here to there as well. I also have to add my meta codes to it so people can find it with the search engines, but if you would like to have a look, clicky~. There is a hidden page on there that says a lot more about me, do try and find it, it is obvious if you read certain pages as I have a link to it on one of them. But anywho!

Now I bid you all a fond farewell for now. I have to get to work on more content and tranfering some other. Have a Nice Day~!

For the Love of God... (Here goes round 2)

Jesus Christ. Is it too much to ask for a bit of peace?? I seriously think it is in today's world. Too much drama, too many idiots, too many whores that aren't grateful for their lives still being intact, and waaay too many disfunctional families.

I have a little issue at the moment that involves my friend hating her brother, he is coming over and her Junior Prom is tomorrow. Can you spell W-W-3? Yeah. I smell blood, and I smell trouble.

I have a rather large amount of idiots at my school that like to try and fuck up my life. I have 'friends' that turned out to be backstabbing idiots that aren't worth my time. I have evil Geometry teachers that like to rule my life. Oh, while that thought is on my mind, did I mention that she pulled me from the advanced class and stuck me in Geometry A? Yeah. Ass-bitch-and-a-half. I also have numerous morons that like to screw me over anyway. Top that off with people insulting my uniform? The people that did this just so happened to be the schools biggest whores, and my constant pain in the asses anyway. These two in particular like to piss me off. They insult my friends, me and my country. Insult the first two all you like, but you insult my country and pain will be your just reward, delivered swiftly by my fist and combats.

Now, since this is a continued post from last night when I was swiftly kicked off the computer by the first bitch mentioned, aka my 'friend' and constant headache. I shall be leaving this post to end now. I will post again on everything else in a second...

Updates on Life

Well, as much as I hate to say it, my life as gone crazy. My friends in real life are fading off, my school work has hit rock bottom (from school's brightest natural student to one of the most problematic? yeah. bad.), and I am loosing people every which way but straight. My uncle died in late 2008, almost two years after his wife, and my aunt who I loved dearly. I am now in his daughter's class and hating every minute of it. My mother's little love saga is now afecting my life, and her little buddy is trying to worm his way into a place that isn't there, where he knows it or not. Stack all this ontop of injuries, drills, sickness, homework issues, and ex's leaving for the Navy? Yeah, life is spinning into a hell waaay to quick.

Anyway. As you all know, I deleted the world I had for 'Angels'. It was proving too much trouble to keep up and keep everything in order. I may make another world for my fanfictions, I don't know yet. That is a quickly fading idea, but it is there.

Now, since I have finally returned to Otaku in full, I have a bit of news. I am once again attempting to re-awaken my sleeping drawing skills. I am thinking about working with those skills and my DDP(digital drawing pad) to create a few things in the near future. That is not a guarantee, but what is a guarantee is that I will be getting 'Shadow' up soon and a few others with it. My current obsession is Wallpapers and rarely E-cards. I hopefully will be getting a ton of wallpapers done in the near future, this including a few of my myspace adapted ones from my personal collection. You will probably see a few DBZ/GT and maybe a Naruto OC wallpaper scattered in the collection, but mainly Yu Yu Hakusho, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Devil May Cry, and Beyblade. I can't shake my addiction to my favorite red eyed demon from the first, a certain couple of violet eyed bishies from the second and forth, and an icey little half-breed from the third. So, yeah, expect alot of fan-works about those four in the near future, namely Kai Hiwatari (Beyblade G-Revolution) at the moment.

Now perhaps I shall leave you be, but I have a little something for you...
