I've been back from the con since Sunday night.
The con was awesome and I need to take pictures of the things I got.
I have no time to draw or my crafts that I'm dying to do.
Work is starting to get to me. (eye twitch)
I'm thinking about getting a face book to keep up with friends.
I want to comment more and start sending PMs to my friends. ;-;
I want to redesign "The candy sanctuary" really bad.
I want to start selling my charms, I think I'm finally ready.
I want to buy tons of Japanese language books and really give time to study it.
SLEEP
Oh, I donated $10 to the red cross for the quake in Haiti. I had the fuzzies all that day.
I WANT TO BE CREATIVE MOREEEEE BUT NO TIME.
Dammit...
That's it. Bye for now. :3
Here’s another update!
The picture that I was working on and posted a WIP is finally done. Please go take a look I don’t think you’ll will be disappointed! >http://www.theotaku.com/fanart/view/322481/incubus_magic%253A_strawberry_cream
Besides that, guess who got a 72 Copic marker set on Wednesday?
You wouldn’t believe how long I wanted these markers! And a new art store finally opened up downtown that sold them, but since I was in school and jobless I couldn’t afford them. All that has changed for the better 2-3 years later (yay for waiting!), they had the 72 set on sell for $300 and I couldn’t run fast enough to get them. Once again they are my X-mas gift for myself so I have about a week to drool all over them before I can actually use them. Which is fine, I love that feeling! It’s like I’m a kid again. :3
So I’m done shopping for myself and now I have my family and friends to shop for. The biggest problem is that I have no clue what to get my boyfriend D:. In fact he already gotten my gift on Wednesday and is totally sure I’ll love it. But I don’t know if the gift I’m thinking about getting him well be “good enough” or at least on my end. It’s a board game called “munchkin” it’s originally a card game that he wanted really bad. I know he will love it but I wanted something more personal and homely for him… I don’t know. It shouldn’t even be a problem being that I know he will be happy if I got it for him.
I’ll figure it out. D:
Have a great holiday everybody! I’ll probably post on X-mas anyway. :P
Guess who got a Zune HD?!
MEEE!
I got it today after work (which was a pain in the butt). I went to best buy and they had it out on display where you can mess around with it. I held that son of a gun and while I was a bit confused with the menu, getting around a bit, and etc it was what all the reviews were raving about! I was swiveling the menus with my fingers and felt totally flawless and smooth. Let me tell you about that oled screen. FAN-F*UKING-TASIC… I played the video that was in the Zune and was blown away. The colors, depth, and richness are nothing I ever seen on any kind of mp3/phone. I didn’t think you can get that kind of power in a small device like that. Anyway after an hour or some screwing around the store messing with devices and things I finally brought it. The insurance was higher then a giraffe’s ass though. 50 for regular wear and tear and 70 for two year of the “if I do something stupid and drop the Zune in the toilet and it doesn’t work after it dries off” kind. I wanted to get insurance but damn that would have been 300 down the drain right then and there. So I just went without it. I just hope I wasn’t the lucky one with the defected Zune HD. >-<
In other news I had work today. I had to be there are 7:00AM. I wasn’t a happy camper waking up at 4:35AM when I had my alarm for 4:00AM. I had to be out the house at 5:10AM so I had to hustle to get out the door. Thank goodness I half ass planed on what I was going to wear and that my mom brought burgers for me and my sister for work that day. Things went smoothly except the fact the bus didn’t go to the stop we were suppose to get off at. So me and my fellow co-workers, lucky two of them that worked at vanguard for like a year (which I was following) walked half the way there and a friend of one of the co-workers picked us up.
Oh yeah, after I went to best buy I went across the street to King of Prussia Mall. Christ all mighty was that bitch crowed! I couldn’t even get a bite to eat, I had to go over to rite aid to get something to eat and drink. I was totally ready to start snapping necks after 15 minutes of that place.
I guess that’s it for now. I’m glad I was able to update within a week or so instead of a year. I hope everyone’s weekend is going well, see ya next time!
Oh yeah, check out my WIP --> http://www.theotaku.com/fanart/view/321502/wip I can’t wait till I have it done and posted! XD
And I’m back again! 8D
Hey all and how is everyone doing today? The holidays are coming up; does anyone have any special plans?
I’m doing fine. I’m done training and now on the floor! Also with that I’m on the compressed schedule. This means I have to be there a whole hour early! I was dreading it all weekend let me tell you. I boyfriend came over the weekend and I just couldn’t let him go on Saturday night. When he started to get ready I was so sad and made my sappy face. He kept looking at me and I just looked at him with my puppy dog eyes. When he was pretty much ready to leave out the door he decided to stay the night. I was so happy! I really didn’t want him to go because as soon as he did I would have been bored and would have nothing to look forward to but work, which I’m dreading in the first place.
Oh yeah, yesterday was my boyfriends first day at vanguard! He’s going to be trained in the building I’m working in so we can have lunch together. I was really happy to see him too and he gave me his granola bar and cashews. I tore them up. I have to invest in work snacks now since I’m there 7:30AM to 6:30PM. I have to get up at 4:30AM and leave out at 5:50AM just to make it in time. It wasn’t as bad as I thought. It didn’t feel any different since it was still dark outside. It is a bit creepy going to the subway though since the sun is not even coming up yet. They also can let me out early (6:00pm) because I have to take the last shuttle home but I can only have a half hour break. Works for me, by 5:00pm I’m dead anyway XD
In more worthy news... I’ve finally got down on my paper clay and made some cookie and macaroon pieces for my deco den/jewelry. Paper clay feels amazing! I love the cool wetness of it. Its really good for the texture as well, I like how the macaroon came out but the cookies look okay, I’m just concerned that it may look too much like paper texture rather then biscuit/cookie texture. I haven’t had time to try the silicone whipped cream yet either which I was head over hells for. I want to make more pieces before I embark on that. I want to make cakes, lollipops, strawberries, etc. I’m also thinking about getting some molds off esty. There are a lot that I can use like the fancy donuts and stuff. I also want to get some of that shrink plastic inkjet paper so I can make some cell phone charms of my characters. There’s so much I want to do so little time! D:
I guess before I wrap this up, I’m getting a Zune HD this week for x-mas! I wanted a new mp3 player for about a year now and since I have the money to get one I want the best that’s on the market. It was going to be either the IPod touch or the Zune HD. The Zune HD came up on top for me. I really wanted to be able to put my pictures on it and have my animes for viewing pleasure. The Zune HD has this fancy oled screen it should look quite spiffy! After I get that, I want to get the 72 set of copic markers. Hopefully I will be able to get a ps3 in time for x-mas but if I don’t I’ll just get it afterwards.
Okay, I’m going to enjoy my two days off! I work 4 days a week now I forgot to mention and I’m working on some pictures too. One should one up soon. It has to do with my incubus addiction. :3
Till next time!
Howdy Ho!
Man, it’s been forever since I updated here. I feel so bad too, I really want to be active here but some days I don’t even see the internet (besides snippets in breaks). Then sometimes I been so tired I just skip over the computer all together and watch T.V or hang out with my boyfriend if he’s over. I seen a lot of pictures that I wanted to comment on too but I just don’t have the time. Not to mention I barely have time to sit down and draw, the most I do it the occasional doodle. Which is nice here and there be it is a tease to want to do something more advanced but don’t have energy to even think about it when you’re finally home. I REALLY want to draw and color…
Besides that things been fine. Work is okay, it’s a pain sometimes because every time we get use to something new to process, we get piled on with more e-learning’s explaining more stuff that we have to learn. We barely have time to get use to what we doing before we have to learn something else and get use to that. Yesterday was the last day of training and we had to learn a new system while we were struggling with what we just learned already. Totally epic how they expect to cram us with information. I just learned also that the normal training is 3 months long and that people wasn’t getting taught as much stuff as my group. They were compressing everything because of money or tax season were coming, I don’t know. In any event its craziness to expect to get real productive workers on such a horrible training cram-age. The trainers we had though been really good and I love them all to pieces, they understood where we were coming from. Its not there idea to cram everything, it’s the higher ups as usual.
Today though was a horrible day, it was our first time in the new system that we were “taught” and me and my friend really screwed up and almost cause something major if the audit team didn’t catch the mistake. WOW, I think that huge cram session did us some justice yesterday don’t ya think? Then I had a horrible outcall near the end of the day. I needed help and I had to get one of my trainers to help me and I had the client on hold for like 5 minutes. It was such a mess, at the end the client told me to have someone to call him on Friday. Which was my damn pleasure being that I sounded like a fool the whole time. Jesus Christ I HATE outcalls sometimes. Which resurrects my hated for people occasionally. I wanted to kill something after that. I was SO uber frustrated. Thankfully we had a surprise e-learning about taxes and dumb shit which they graded you on. Not sure if it counted though. And remember kids we never went over taxes in training so we had to find the answers in our online manual. I was so done after that… talk about stress… I know I couldn’t get out of there fast enough when they let us out early today. I was so thankful; I really didn’t want to sit there any longer.
Getting THAT out my system >__>… I’ve been active in my crafts. Not much as doing them but buying what I need since I have the money to do so. Mostly I’ve wanted to do the whole decoden thing. If you never saw it before it’s the most amazing thing ever! You decorate your items with rhinestones, fake sweets, and whipped cream. Since I saw it I wanted to do it but I wasn’t sure how to get some materials or how to do certain things. I did some major research on the internet (mostly at work har har) on it and got some awesome tutorials and tips on how to do it. Last week I got the everything I needed. Even though I made my cold worst by going outside to get the silicone it was worth it. On Tuesday I got an oil paint set to color the silicone too. This should be really fun for me.
So X-mas is coming and I got tons of things I want to give myself! I have plans on getting me a good digital camera on black Friday even though I work that day. My boyfriend said he’ll try to get it for me since by the time I leave work everything will be gone and stuff. Oh yeah, I forgot I got my boyfriend into vanguard! My supervisor that interviewed me said that they were hiring more people so I gave my boyfriend his e-mail. So now he has an interview with them tomorrow. He had one with them last week but the time where he got to the shuttle stop, the shuttles stopped running... GGGAAAAYYY… Anyway before I forget, the things I want to give myself!
• I pod touch/ Zune HD
• 72 copic marker set
• Playstation 3
• Canon Powershot 12.2 megapixels 3x zoom digital camera
• Money for the upcoming anime convention in January
I’m still thinking over the MP3 thing. Both of them have its pros and cons, I was going to get it on black Friday but I’m still not sure which one I want to get.
Okay I’m going to end this, I have to make sure I update here more often if I have the time. Oh, happy thanksgiving everyone! My mom is cooking right now and it’s a small meal with just me, sis, mom, and dad if he’s coming back over. I so glad because I hate when everyone is over and stuff. So goddamn annoying, and I love my little cousins but I hate kids soo I wouldn’t be much of a happy camper if I had my one day off just to deal with them all day long.
Everyone have a happy and safe thanksgiving!
