The list goes on to pretty much anything =P I've read many more manga so if you want to strike up a discussion about a mangaka/game/anime/movie creator on this list, don't be afraid to ask! I've looked at many works by each of the above authors/artists!

-My Deviantart(active)

Something random you should know: I LOVE it when people draw the character's personality is intact(in other words, unchanged)~ it really gives the picture a better feel because they act the same as they were made to be.

It looks like it's going to be another week...

But it'll be much different from many of the others!! As much as I enjoy my days, I'd love to relish these ones as much as I can, because it's finally...my Spring Break!!<33

It feels like I've been away from here waayy too long...and another month of no art is coming along again xDD goodness...I don't know what's happened. I think that school has made me forget how much I love art and have been inspired...after events, I've been so so inspired to work on my own original story, it's been driving me crazy xD However, nothing seems to come out well enough...so yeah. I must practice!

On top of that, I'm in quite a conflict, however...even at the start of my break, yes, there are problems. SAT scores came in. My mother saw them. She was not at all pleased. And I wasn't either, when I saw them, but...first day of break and I've cried already haha.

I've..also been slacking a bit with my weight. I'm blaming school for everything, although I know I can only blame myself for my laziness. It's going to be quite a struggle...but I know that I'll reach my goal eventually. I don't know how but I will need to somehow, I know it! There is more than one goal I hope to achieve by losing weight...although one of them, I know, is almost impossible. *laughs* You can't just gain someone's heart like you can earn money or lose weight.

Just a quick message to Cherri-chan: I hope we get to talk soon~ I'm sorry but...I've drawn 7 sketches of the 3-part art trade and none satisfy me. I keep changing the pose because I'm so afraid of it being so much like the ones you and Sayoko-chan have drawn. I'm having a terrible amount of trouble arranging the poses and such...and it almost makes me want to draw something similar to what you two have done. So forgive me for my taking so long! >.<

I WILL get back into drawing again, you guys! I promise!! And about coloring my latest picture...I might do it, I'm not sure. The background will be a bit difficult for me, but it depends, I might come up with something. Until then, take care!

Quiet Sunday Morning

Hello everyone~ as the title says, it's a quiet sunday morning...kind of cold and a bit chilly from last night's rain but nonetheless, it's a nice day ^^ It's been a week since I posted, so I thought it best to say hello to you all!! I've been getting around to comment this morning for about the past hour and a half, so yeah..productivity, yay! ^^ And it's nice to comment such nice works too >.<

I'm looking most forward to spring break coming April 2nd, but until then, it will be absolute chaos! I'm hoping I can change that, though...if I work hard enough, hopefully the tide will come my way and I can have a fantabulous spring break! ^^ It helps to look at you guys' works to remind me what art I have left to create...it pushes me more to make time in my day to practice ^^
So thank you all for being such wonderful inspirations to me!~ You are such wonderful friends and I can't thank you enough >.<

That being said, I have a random impulse to write down some couples that I absolutely adore...no idea why, but lately I've been wanting to see a list of couples I really like xD Do not kill me please if there is something here you do not agree with >.< Ones with hearts are absolute favorites that make my heart melt sometimes xD Although, know I'm pretty flexible...I like almost any couple really xD

So anyways, I hope that lets you know a tad bit more about me ^^ Take care everyone! And have a wonderful Sunday!<3

Mini Commenting Event?

Hello there everyone!! It's a beautiful Sunday afternoon and it seems that we must set our clocks ahead an hour!! Goodness, time flies even faster nowadays ^^; But nonetheless, some of the worst for me is over, and now it's time to start a new week with a fresh new outlook!

So to celebrate Pi day, the release of FFXIII, a new outlook, and a fresh perspective to the coming week, I've decided to try and do a mini monthly event. I'm not implying that you join (although...I guess in saying that, you might all think so xD), but I thought it'd be fun and a nice little thing to do for other members.

What's going to happen is everyday I'm going to comment on the work of someone whom I have never met: completely random, and give a sincere comment(not lazy..which I sometimes can do on weekdays xD). So I will be going around to all of the different sections and commenting on works of those I don't know. I think that it'll be quite fun ^^ I try to go around and comment on works of those I don't know usually, but it's never very consistent how often I do it. So yeah xD I'll be making more of an effort for quite a few things starting today! *nods* Any of you are welcome to join me on my endeavor ^^

Of course, that's not to say that I won't still comment on you guys's works! I will ALWAYS be there to comment you all at some point or another, I promise you that!

Otherwise, if you haven't checked out my latest picture and e-card, please do if you can ^^ And for those that have already, thank you so so much for such a warm welcome back...I almost forgot what it was like to have people comment on my work xD But I assure you, I won't forget again! Thanks so so much everyone~ I love you all so much<333 Take care!!

New art! (haven't submitted since September...wow)

External Image

Hiya everyone! Wow it's been AGES since I submitted hahaha. I've been dumping all of my commissions at DA because I feel like they aren't worthy enough of being posted here xD This latest pic isn't really worth being posted here either but here's the catch..it was for a challenge =P

So! There's my entry to Cherri-chan's formal challenge! I promised I'd enter and so that was made...in an hour xD The story behind it all can be read there, but for now, I'll just leave it at that.
And please check out my card as well, if you may ^^

In all sincerity, I promise after SAT this Saturday I will return to my normal commenting routine! So I will return comments soon~ Take care everyone and I do hope you aren't mad at me xD

A Little Message on my Return

External Image

So I've come to let you all know that I've returned after much thought. Unfortunately I can't really express everything I'm feeling right now to you guys because school prevents me from doing so, but I'll be sure to as soon as the opportunity presents itself ^^
I just wanted to say thank you all so much for caring about me. And being so kind, loving and wonderful to the point where words cannot express. I made this card while thinking of all of you!
