I've been very happy all day long~! Except for around this point...I'm pretty neutral.

I've been watching The Next Food Network Star all day and that show really makes me happy because everybody is so nice on there compared to what it was like last year (and the years before then) and with the HGTV Star search thingy (everybody on there is a jerk). I really like it when they're happy, because when they're sad or neutral I'm bored or sad...>.>

But now I'm pretty neutral now because of who the new star is. It was obvious from the start. I'm not going to spoil if you haven't already seen it! That's all the hint I'm giving. >:D I mean, I like...them...but all it seemed was like a long competition just to prove to other people that they are the winner or something...or like their adventure or something...>.> I hope the other challengers come back for a new TV show because that Adam guy did even though he lost the Next Food Network Star and now he has several different TV shows he's in...O.o

Besides that, I was just looking at the character designs for Shirokuro Kitan. HOLY CRAP!! I love this manga SOOOO much! The characters are the characters that I've seen in other manga and I loved except they're more interesting and they're all together in this! >:D Plus the artist is a GENIUS:

Awesome, right!? <333

I've noticed that I really like planning things. And I get an art block when I can't think of anything to do...and so I get really bored...>.> But when I keep planning things out I get really excited! ^ ^ I keep wanting to start new things. However, every time I start something new...I don't usually go back to it.

And so that makes me want to plan or layout how I can change. I keep doing that over and over again! XD But I think the more I plan things out the more I will improve in life, not just art. So I'll keep planning.

I don't totally suggest that you guys keep planning, I'm just telling you guys that I have tons of ideas and most of the things I do I lay out beforehand.

Right now I want to start and organized requesting system so that I can give gifts and requests and stuff plus work on my own drawings and manga. And I'm thinking of making schedules. Because if I want to do all that stuff in my free time, I also have to be aware of homework and stuff from school or clubs interrupting what I'm doing, and I know those things will happen a lot because of Academic Team and Anime Club and any other clubs I'll join...which I think those'd be the only two...O.o

I want to work hard on drawings, plus draw random sketches so I can keep practicing my art, and then draw manga, and on top of that finish requests often. I think the school year helps me out since I'm on a schedule to go to wake up a 6 AM, go to school, come home at 4 PM, do homework/eat snack, then go to be at 9:30 PM (or later...>:D). So I have the little free time to do whatever I want in the middle, plus anything I do during school.

And then I'd have tons of free time over the weekend to work on more art stuffs.

So that's what I'm planning out! XD

I still need to work on manga that I've been talking about. Maybe I can do it in my free time at school, but all my friends want to do is talk...TT^TT Haha, you can tell I'm that social of a person...yet...I have a TON of friends...O.o

I have friends to be there, not to talk about things with...Sometimes I might do that, but I prefer thinking it through...>.>

Oh, and speaking of requests! XD I finished one out of three and I'll work on the others tomorrow!

Oh! I noticed that you can no longer track challenges anymore...WHY!? That made life SOOO much easier. And now I have challenges that I'm tracking that I can't un-track once I'm done...>.> PLEASE BRING IT BACK!! TT^TT It's very inconvenient without it! I often forget about challenges I want to do, but that thing reminds me! TT^TT

I have several things I'd like to do that I haven't done yet...like doodling...I rarely doodle...'orz I'm trying to get into the habit. I mean, I kinda doodle during school...but some people are how they doodle while they listening to lectures or on the phone or something...I can't do that...>.> In fact, I keep having classes where we have to do that and I HATE doing those kinds of things. We get graded on doodling in class!? What the heck!! TT^TT If I don't ever do that, my brain is not used to doing things like that, therefore, I can't do the assignment, idiot teachers! >.>

Oh, since I seem to be on a rant right now, let's rant about something I've been mad about for a while.

THE NEWS!! I hate the news...>.> Bleh....I mean, I DO watch the news I'm just saying that I hate news stations and their opinions and their poor jobs at reporting on news. Your jobs are to CLEARLY tell us the news, not tell us if that's some weird hobby for anybody or something.

Then there are news stations who are really...self obsessed? Like Fox News, they keep going on about how great they are and how other people who don't like Fox News are ignorant or something. No, we just don't like your news because most of it is false...>.> And then CNN...STOP REPORTING THE SAME THINGS AS EVERYONE ELSE! Give us something else...And then they stick with the same news story for WEEKS. Please stop doing that CNN. And the entire time that they're trying to tell the news, they don't know what they're talking about, they have no news, they're just rambling and talking about their opinions which I could care less about. And then MSNBC...only Rachel Maddow is good...well...sometimes. She's also often going on about the same thing, but I can understand, she has her own passions about things. At least she's keeping us updated on certain things that other news people aren't.

But the thing that makes me hate the news the MOST are the offending and stupid reporting of things that aren't American. Like when they're talking about anime. ESPECIALLY when they're talking about anime. There should be a least one anchor person who likes anime enough to report stories concerning it PROPERLY instead of acting like dopes and saying what they think is 'proffessional'.

Here are some videos by the news that really bothers me:

A LOT of people are bothered by this. Shut up stupid lady. They're not even reporting it right. If you're going to report something GET INFORMATION ABOUT IT! DO ACTUAL RESEARCH! >.> Just because it's 'popular' on some place doesn't mean that telling us that is actual news...>.>

It's the MSNBC report that bothers me in this one...>.> She wasn't dancing to JAPANESE ANIMATION! I'd like to see you dance to a cartoon. You can't dance to animation. You can dance to MUSIC...>.> But then the part where it they go to the 'expert' who's a 'Comic Book Enthusiast'...O.o *face palm*....Guhhh...there is no such thing as an expert on this kind of stuff unless they're an expert on Japanese Culture or something...or whatever you call them, the guys who research stuff about different cultures and go really far into it to learn things that most people don't notice. He's not one of them though....XD

There's more...I just can't remember right now...I've seen many more...>.> Stop doing this! TT^TT Bleh...Give me a computer to report or something...

Well...I forgot what else to talk about...'orz

I'm gonna go get ready for bed now! Bye-bye! ^ ^

Requests are Open~!

I closed them a very long time ago, and I wonder if anybody else realized that? XD

I'm very bored and I'd like to draw way more, but I just can't think of things to draw. So I'm opening up requests, but I'm making rules this time!

I can draw more than one character, but it can't be any kind of romantic picture like hugging or kissing, staring is fine, though.

The maximum amount of characters I'll draw are 5 (in one picture, you can have as many requests as you want, just don't request it all at once...TT^TT).

The character can't be from a manga. Like I'm not going to draw Ed Elric or anybody, not even Haku from Naruto. Must either be your OC or favourite singer/actor whatever.

I CAN do gijinkas of pokemon and etc. Just no existing characters that I have to look at pictures for reference for...unless they're your OC.

Please tell me if you want a portrait, full body, or whatever (stuff in the middle). And if you want it realistic, normal, or anime style, or moe, or something like that.

I can do chibis, but...I'm terrible at drawing chibis, so I don't think you'd want me to do them...'orz

The reason I refuse to do characters from anime or something is because...I become a major procrastinator when it comes to do fanart...I really don't like doing fanart, especially if people request it. Just something so that I can give you good quality and I'll give it to you fast instead of crappy 2 year long crap...>.>

Oh, and no cartoons either. Because I'm not a cartoonist. It's just really weird drawing cartoons...>.>

And by singer or actor, I mean real people. No vocaloids and all the jazz. REAL PEOPLE!! Of course, they can have fake names...but, well, you know what I mean...

Oh, and since it seems nobody figured out who the singers were in that one picture I drew before, lemme just give you the answer:

External Image

(from left to right/top to bottom:)

Erina Mano
Tsuji Nozomi
Ai Otsuka
Lee Jung Hyun
Alan
Kaori Mochida
Jyou
Tomoko Kawase
Maki Goto
Saki Shimizu
Tsugunaga Momoko
Gackt
Masato
Takeru
Daichi Miura
Tsuji Nozomi (but you probably already know that)

I don't really think they look that much like their singers...'orz...Though I think Erina Mano looks like Erina Mano. So that's the kind of thing I'll do when drawing singers or actors. Which is why I want REAL PEOPLE and not cartoons or anime characters or whatever...>.>

Sorry I'm so picky. But it's for that reason above that I am so picky about this. I WANT to give you good quality, and this is the only way it seems, that I can give you good quality...'orz

You can comment on this post or PM me to request.

Cosplaying? O.o

Halloween...it's...kinda far away...But to me it feels too close. I want to cosplay somebody new...but I can't think of any ANIME character...

So I was thinking of just cosplaying a singer for Halloween and then actual characters for Anime Conventions...

The top two I'd like to do are:

G-Dragon

External Image

Jyou

External Image

I want to do G-Dragon because I love his hair/hairstyle in heartbreaker plus his make-up:

External Image

And Jyou because my mom has a shirt similar to hers that I wore for my Amulet Spade cosplay, and I can just add random crap to my pants. Then I can get my mom to style my hair. So it won't take as much as G-Dragon.

My mom is an artist also...so...I'll probably make her do that bleeding checkered heart thing...XD I'd have to buy a wig and a lot of other stuff, though...O.o

That or make up something completely...Like play around with make up stuffs and add random things on everywhere...

My friend showed me her layouts that she drew before she made her cosplaying clothes...and she always does an AWESOME job at cosplaying...so maybe I should do something like that...

...

I once again drifted from the page and I can't remember what I'm talking about...'orz

Oi, Ruby Gloom...was...a TV show? A Canadian TV show which should've aired in America...Ummm...wait...has it? It kinda looks familiar to me...O.o I like the overall feel to it! X3 It's cute! X3

I'm working on some...uhhhh...what's the word...? Well, I'm sketching out my characters for that one manga I've been talking about.

And now after thinking about some things...I feel like...drawing...a bunch of random things...

HOLY CRAP! IT'S SATURDAY! O.O I better be prepared to watch Graham Norton...come on!! CAN'T FORGET!! I haven't see his show since...liiike the beginning of summer...TT^TT

Okay...I'm gonna go colour this sketchy thingy and then do some random doodles to...to...I don't know...because I feel like drawing random things...

Oh, wait. I have to meditate in 9 minutes...Ah, well...>.>

Yup, yup, 'twas fun! XD You guys can do this if you'd like...though I don't know if you'd want to do as many as I did...XD

Off ta work~! XD

:D Ish sleepy...'orz

I'm so sleepy and for some reason I can't hear anything...or comprehend anything...I've been really weird ever since school started...

Like more outgoing, louder, friendlier than usual...O.o

And I really can't hear anything! TT^TT It's really bothering me because I never have a clue what anyone said....

Like my friend told me that she had to go to the second floor for her next class and I thought she said 'I need a clean towel to clean up all this blood'...O.o...And then my other friend was talking to me about something and I completely forgot the entire conversation...TT^TT

Maybe I'm still really sleepy...

Well, I'm armed with some water and I've finished looking at fanart and commenting on HERE, now onto MB...which is just looking at and rating art...so it shouldn't take so long....But I have a strange problem of staring a pictures, as I've told you before...'orz

I'm working on that manga I've been talking about...planning 'n stuff. I want to do it in a particular style...like so it has a certain feel to it...

And I can't figure out a name for their band. It has to be dark, visual kei-ish, and silly/kinda stupid, since Shig-san's an idiot...XD I abuse him verbally a lot...XD Shig-san~! I finally got a name for him. I really love this guy...For some reason...And I gave him a nickname name for his alias in the visual kei group. His real name is...No, I'm not gonna tell ya...XD He would probably kill me, since that's apart of his rules.

I was thinking of something like Double V...but that sounds a bit odd. Or Necromansters...O.o

I'm looking at names of different visual kei bands...and most of them seem to have a few things in common:

They're in French
They're gothic sounding
They're violent
They have to do with dolls or jewelry or something like that
They're random...O.o

Oooh maybe Merry-Go-Rounder...Hrmm...lemme list possible names and I'd like for you guys to tell me which one sounds the best:

Double V
Necromansters
Merry-Go-Rounder
Bloody Mary
ChillEr:KillEr
Lovely Brawl
Candy Dolls

And that's all I got...or something along those lines...Who knows, I might come up with something I really like. I'm leaning to Necromansters...only because it sounds like something Shig-san would come up with...XD What about the other members? Umm...they could care less except for Masumi-chan...I think he'd hate something like Candy Dolls or Lovely Brawl...O.o And Necromansters sounds stupid to him...XD Ahhh, Masumi-chan...*shakes head*...XD I think we're in the same boat! XD

Okay, gonna go work on it some more and look at MB pictures tomorrow, because I doubt I'll finish today and it'd just be really hard to get back to my place tomorrow...'orz
