Wee! It’s the long Easter weekend for me! Friday and Monday off! And I don’t have any homework! WOOOO! ^.^ I’m so happy just because I don’t have any homework. ^.~
So obviously I haven’t really been up to much due to all that homework. However, when I was shopping for some anime DVDs I found a box set of Cowboy Bebop DVDs for $60, which is a really good price for anime here. So I’ve just finished watching Cowboy Bebop and it’s awesome! I definitely recommend it, because I don’t think anybody can dislike this anime; Cowboy Bebop has great, unique characters and interesting themes and good music and everything! ^.^ Homework and watching Cowboy Bebop have been the only things I’ve been doing lately.
During the Spring Break I went to Barbados. There’s awesome weather in Barbados and so many Bob Marley fans (that made me happy)! *^.^* I have some photos from Barbados, but I warn you that there are a lot of them:

Also, while I was in Barbados working on a history project and 60 goddamn history textbook questions (yes, my teacher is a jerk at times), I made some fanart! You don’t have to read the descriptions in them, because I sort of ranted about all the history homework in one of them… And how I hate yaoi fangirls on top of it… And about the end of the world… ^.^ Yesh, just ignore it, it’s for your own good! XD
I was on DeviantArt a bit last night, tackling that list of 600 pictures to look at. I’m trying to check out other people’s fanart and stuff, but on TheOtaku it’s a little more difficult because the update thingy is retarded. So if you want me to look at the fanart you have on TheOtaku, I’ll be happy to check it out! ^.^ And I’m going to try to get to all the sites and Worlds that I missed during my last visit. ^.~ Yay for free time! *throws streamers*
By the way, whatever happened to the VersionVibrant Resistance Corps? It seems to me that TheOtaku has been getting worse, and MyOtaku has been deserted. We need to get a bunch of people to start complaining again. -_- This premium membership crap is driving me nuts, and now TheOtaku is just like all those other sites; it used to be unique with it’s friendly and welcoming community and home page news section, but now it’s developed classes and has craploads of advertisements everywhere.
Well, I intend to keep this post upbeat, so I’ll leave it at that! ^.^ Oh yeah! And I’m thinking up a new theme, featuring the dragonslayers from Escaflowne! ^.~ Happy Easter everybody! I hope you’re having a fantabulous weekend! I shall visit sites and Worlds now to see how you’ve been doing while I’ve been gone! ^.^ See Yas!
Answers:
1. My life’s been rather hectic. Going to Barbados with all that homework didn’t help, and my teachers aren’t too good this semester. Well, my English teacher and chemistry teacher (who was my physics teacher too last semester) are great, but my history teacher and functions teacher are awful! @.@ However, I don’t have any homework this weekend and that’s awesome! Yay! *^.^*
2. My first ever obsession now is Watchmen by Alan Moore! ^.^ As a fan of the original comic book, I disliked the movie though.

3. I like to come on MyOtaku and watch movies in my spare time! ^.~
Questions:
1. What should I name my new computer? My old one used to be called Famille, but I never gave this one a name! *GASP!*
2. Do you buy anything if it says that it’s on sale? Even if you don’t need it or have never wanted it?
3. Have you met any nice new members on TheOtaku yet? I’ve been meaning to get out there and start making some new friends to make up for the old friends who left the site when VersionVibrant arrived; I’m lonely! @.@
I miss everyone on here so much! I keep wondering what *insert username here* is doing and stuff like that. T.T I don't have much time today to visit anyways, but I thought I should try to get in a couple visits and update my life on here so my next post won't be as huge. XD Most of this post is just pictures and stuff, so please don't be afraid of the length... O.O
I miss a bunch of my friends who don't come on here any more too, like lordsesshomaru, CDandDVD, DarkWolvesFaith, Icey Tigeriss, Leiko Yume, Magnus Lensherr, ... there's a massive list of my friends who have seemingly dropped off the face of the internet! @.@
Well, during the holidays and second semester I've been getting really creative. This is sorta why I haven't been on here in so long; I must vent what little creativity I have before it disappears! XD Forgive me! v_v So here's some Watchmen fanart I did during the Christmas break:
I also made a quiz when I was really bored for Watchmen. I wish I hadn't made it though, because it's really lousy. I mean, the pictures are alright, but the questions and answers are retarded. I made it because I was bored, so I didn't look up some of the things about the characters and I only read the book for the first time (now that I've read it a second time, there's some things I'd like to fix and add to). So take it at your own risk:
Lastly, I made an AMV for Escaflowne, but I had to upload it on Photobucket because YouTube has gone copyright crazy... o.O

I have some pictures of my pets to show y'all too, since y'all have shown me a lot of nice pictures of your pets! =^.^= However, you'll have to go to my site to see them, since TheOtaku limits the number of pictures now... o.O Grr!
Answers:
1. I just stayed at my cottage for the holidays.
2. Thanks Raina for helping me with the font colours thing! *hugs* ^.^
3. I have no idea what my resolution should be for this year... I guess it would have to be to stop procrastinating! ^.~
Questions:
1. How's life? I haven't been on here in so long, so I don't know how everyone is doing; tell me! ^.^
2. What's your current obsession?
3. What's your favourite thing to do in your spare time?
Well, that's all I have for you guys today! ^.^ I hope everything is going alright for everyone! See Yas! *^.^*
I've missed y'all soooooo much! *hugs* Yay! It's the holidays and I don't have much work to do! ^.^ The only work that I have is for this extracurricular thing that I joined in school; a Mock Trial Tournament. In the Mock Trial Tournament schools choose 8 students to try out and play the roles of witnesses and lawyers in a team for the case their given, then these teams compete against each other as if it were a real trial and a judge decides which team did the best job (sorta like a debate team).
How is everybody? Look! A new theme, sharks! I'm really in the holiday spirit there. XD I have time to visit sites and Worlds now! I'll also be on DeviantArt, so if there's any particular art that you guys want me to check out just let me know (since I have 400 art submissions to check out anyways! XD Haha). ^.^;
Sorry, I sorta feel like babbling/ranting, so you can ignore the next few paragraphs. Well, I'm sure that y'all have heard of a comic book called Watchmen by Alan Moore (the dude who wrote V for Vendetta). I just finished reading Watchmen about a week ago. I was making some fanart for it on Friday-Tuesday, which is why I wasn't on here earlier (I haven't submitted it yet, but it'll be up in about a week).
Watchmen is an AMAZING book! I know you're thinking "it's a comic book, kid. Calm yo' ass down." But this book isn't like all those other lame ass comics like Superman and Spiderman! The "superheroes" are all normal people who have just worked out a lot and only one character has super powers (1 of the 5 or 6 main characters). All the characters are unique and well developed and the plot is... well, when I read the end of the book I was like "WOW!!!!" So yesh, the plot is great, and there are many good themes as well.
The problem with Watchmen is that it's so good that it makes most other comics look bad, so good luck trying to pick up something else for a while. ^.^; Also, when I was reading it, I told some of my female, school friends about it. (Here comes the rant). My friends laughed at me and said, "Pffft! Isn't that a comic?! You HAVE to read Twilight!" After my friends said that, I self destructed, because Twilight is a Mary-Sue fanfiction that somehow was able to get published into a book series, and Watchmen is fantabulous (I actually like Watchmen more than To Kill A Mockingbird; that's how good it is).
Therefore, my friends, please read Watchmen! It's a great book and just because it's a comic book, doesn't mean that only guys can read it. Now, on with the rest of the post! Here's some fanart I've made:
Answers:
1. The worst Christmas present I've ever received would have to be a giant set of Prisma pencil crayons. I know you're thinking that that's a nice present, but when my little brother gets an Xbox and I get pencil crayons, it's really not that great. T.T
The best Christmas present I've ever received would have to be my awesome walkman that I got last year for Christmas.
2. I really want a new set of good quality headphones, because my old set broke and now I'm stuck using really lousy headphones.
3. I think my mom said that we're having lasagna tonight. ^.^
Questions:
1. What are you doing for the holidays? Visiting any family members, going to a party, travelling, etc.?
2. How do you get coloured font in comments, now? (Sorry, these are just out of my own curiosity).
3. What is your New Year's resolution?
Here's some cards for y'all! ^.^ :
Sorry for the lousy cards; I only have MS Paint! ^.^; Merry Christmas! *^.^*
