Hello there, this is Katana, also known as Kat in some circles. I'm your friendly neighborhood twenty-two-year-old illustrator/writer whose sarcasm is second to none and harboring the ability to verbalize the parentheses in stories. I drink coffee and draw like an addict and am liable to get you into things that I like. Currently the wielder of a BFA in Illustration and a minor in English.
Questions? Comments? Death threats? Feel free to PM or message me in some iteration. I'm always around, you just don't know it.

Call this a schizo break from the previous post. Thoughts are flyin' quick!
I was sitting in Panda Express today, eating my generic Chinese food and reading Doctor Who Magazine like the nerd that I am. And as I ate, my eyes wandered, as is usual, and I thought back to the episode of Unwrapped I saw on "black and white" food. (Yeah.)
The jumps make sense in my head, I promise you.
The segment I was thinking of talked about latte art, and how people make nifty designs in the foam. I've always wanted to try doing that kind of thing, since it looks cool. But anyways - I liked the layout of the Panda Express I was in, and got into thinking.
Two things I love are art and coffee. They kind of walk hand in hand for me. I mean, really. I've made mentions - mumblings - on how I'd some day love to open a café. One, because it's a fun word, and two, it just sounds so neat and hip. Wait, I mean, it just sounds like something I would do.
But make it a bit of a twist. Sure, it'd be comfortable, a place to hang out. But something a bit else. Materials and workstations to draw or paint. Lots of power outlets. A TV that strictly forbids any reality television. You know, things that are conducive to making stuff. Coffee is so in there.
Thing is, I'd really want to call it The Writers Bloc Café...
One day, I want to at least try my hand in the café business, see how I fare. Probably miserably. And I'd love to stick to the suburbs, but this kind of things probably requires city location...or at least near an art school. Or a school with an art department.
I thought getting MST and Ouran on the same day was awesome. I thought getting MST and Princess and the Frog on the same day was awesome. But today, my (arguably) two biggest fandoms collide into one sheer mass of awesome to ever result into a (collective) 10 DVDs.
Ohhhh yes. This is good. I am done. Done with Geology~!
Probably the best part of the day was the power going out (briefly) during the test. The least awesome part was that a car almost hit me as I was driving to class.
...Oh, hey, I just remembered that I can check my grade! ...I think!

Woah! Sweet! I got a B! That's much more exciting than the C I was banking on.
And now my Mondays and Wednesdays are free, though it doesn't really matter since dorm move-in is in three and a half weeks for me. What a bummer. At the same time, I'm quite glad that I had this class to go to, since I was majorly tweaking out from boredom in May.
