Today was my grandmother memorial service and it went quite well. There wasn't as much crying as you'd think there would be because she was cremated instead, so all we saw was a very pretty and elaborate urn. Although when I first saw it, it made my heart jerk a little. The first thought that came to my mind was "Grandma's in there..."
But y'know, she was a God-fearing, God-loving woman, so I know that she's definitely in a better place. She set a good example to those she knew. Even if I knew her less, she tried to make sure she instilled morals into us as well. I'd say that part of who I am is thanks to her. So here's to you Grandma. May your spirit be happy and calm in Heaven.
My tension is starting to work itself out now. =^_^= It still seems like this is a dream, but I've told myself the truth, despite already knowing it. Moreso, I was trying to avoid thinking of it, but from now on, I'll try to remember the good she did for us. =ouo=
As it's been a long day, I think I shall go for a nap. I'll have to finish the request when I wake up so that the color version of Abbie and Lux'll be up. =3 Ja ne, minna-san!~<3 (And thanks to those who've been talking to me through this tough time, especially Waku-Waku. =3)
... sorta. XD I turned in my entry for Raisha's Designing Faust contest. I would have liked to have added more detail, but since I let my brain float around/was given chores/focused on another artwork/OTL, I didn't have much time XD;;
Tomorrow is my late grandmother's memoril service. I hope it goes well. I shall go to sleep, now. Ja na... *snooze*
*flails* 'm doing my best to do my entry for the Design Faust contest which the deadline is tonight! How did this happen? *wobbles* =@A@= If I don't get it in in time... Well, I'll still upload it, but I'll be a bit upset... =TT_TT=

Guess that means I'm a Loli XD Though Tomboy was a close 2nd. P= Aw... I wanted to be the sexy chara. =;.;= It's sucks, nya... XD lol orz
I'm feeling better as far as the tension goes (though it's still slightly there). The only thing that's bothering me now is this headache... I'm not taking any more of that cyclobenzaprine because I was just worse off in the motor skills department. I'll just stick with minimal painkillers whenever something pops up.
All this stuff has been messing with my ability to draw, after all. However, I'm still not giving up. I'm gonna get back to that request (which would have been done by now... orz) after I take a nice nap and sleep away the rest of my headache. =^_^= I think maybe by tomorrow, I'll be physically okay again. I don't need ANY MORE of my motivation being sapped away. =>.<= *waves giant flag that says "Manga Spirit!"*
I'mma munch on some Craisins and hit the sack for a bit... Mata ne, minna-san!
