Mood: Blugh
Currently working on: NAH-THING. I've been so unproductive...
Hey, I forgot my blog existed... Well, not really. I just feel like nothing interesting goes on in my life, so I haven't had to post lately. xD I wonder if I should post here more often?
Anyways, I recently made a new character! Sort of. He's actually been a character in my mind for a long time, but he never had a face or character so much as a reference to existing. His name's Noland Strong, and you can read a short-ish profile on my charahub. (Also, I have a charahub! I don't think I'll use it often, but now that it has a searchbar I might use it more often. It's a bit difficult to find users, though...)
So. Noland. He's Stefan's ex-boyfriend from college. I don't know if I've ever talked about Stefan's backstory with you, but back in college Stefan had a girlfriend and later a boyfriend--both of which ended up breaking up with him. The point of Noland in Stefan's backstory is that he cheats on Stefan, which influences Stefan into becoming disillusioned with love for the next 8 years. I've always known that Noland exists in the back of my mind, but he never really had a name or a design or anything definite until just a couple days ago. For a while, he was a cool and mysterious foreign guy. (???!??!?! so vague!) Then he was a bi-curious generic sporty boy guy. (Why?) Now he's a kind of bashful intelligent guy with an air about him similar to Dean Johnson, which seems more like the kind of person Stefan would associate with in college. I'll talk more about him in Various Planning some other time when I scan my sketches of him.
What's useful about Noland is that I can use him for a different story I've been thinking about for a while. :V HOORAY. It's about Teacher Noland and a student of his named Chrystal/Chrys, with little to no real storyline like most of the stuff I come up with......... But I'll talk about that too when I post those pictures. The chances of me actually writing or drawing any sort of story about Noland are slim, but you know. At least it exists. 8D
I secretly like to make my real world stories connected to each other. OFAV and RB:SI/A Life LIke This are in the same universe, but in different parts of the world. Foreigner might also be in the same universe, but the fact that Kor is an alien kind of ruins the whole "real world" thing so... probably not. But anyways, an example is that I want Stefan's ex-girlfriend to appear briefly in A Life Like This (it never comes up explicitly that she dated Stefan), and I planned an OFAV-RB:SI crossover when Something Impossible goes to Europe. I think if I made Noland's story, it'd be another one of those stories in that same universe with a specific connection to OFAV. It's completely unrelated to OFAV besides Noland and Stefan's past, so idk if it really counts as a spin-off of OFAV...
But anyways, I'm rambling. I'll talk more about that in a different post.
As far as life goes, prom is next week. GUH. Idk how well I'll fare since I don't really like dancing or loudness, but hopefully I'll have fun with my friends. Aside from that, I'm almost done with the school year! :V Just final exams. AP's seemed pretty okay, except my horrendous AP Physics C test. orz I think I got a 3 on both the mechanics and E&M section. AAaaaagh. ;m; I wanted to get a 4! I've only gotten an A on one of the tests in that class this year, so I don't think I did too well. orz PHYSICS, YOU WERE SO EASY LAST YEAR. WHY WERE YOU SO HARD THIS YEAR.
And um... yeah. Graduating soon. orz I'm kind of sad, because time passes by so quickly. Hopefully college will be a good experience, though. :D;
...That's about it, I guess. Yay!
Happy Memorial Day weekend, folks! :V
