Soooo.... I've been leading everyone up to my posting stuff steadily in the holidays.... And now their over.

*bawls* THEY DIDN'T EVEN START PROPERLY THIS TIME!!!!!!! I mean, they started, and I was like "okay, you have 17 days to get ~insert pile of homework~ done." Then, "you have 10...9...6...5...3...SHIT!! 3!!!" And then I started frantically doing Japanese essays like a mad demon. But, I can say in my favour, my laptop (and only functioning computer in the house) was sick, and had been at hospital (poor baby, I made my my Dad check up on him sooo many times...) for pretty much the whole holidays minus the first weekend (which isn't REALLY part of the holidays, just the weekend of the last week....) and the last three days.
And my UTTERLY SADISTIC Japanese teacher (who has very cute children ) said he wanted FIFTEEN whole-page-font-size-12-double-spaced-ESSAYS sitting on his desk come Monday the first day of school.

Aaaaaaaanyway. Before I got carried off, there was a point to that hysterical tirade. I swear. Oh yes, I remember, the point was that since I didn't have the laptop (which has all my picture files on it too, btw, so if he died....hence he was sent to hospital at the last moment) I couldn't post pictures, which I had been bragging on and promising about. I know that sentence didn't make sense, thanks, falarae.

Aaaaaaanyway (randomly in my head: tonikaku in Jap ) I had the opportunity to post pictures in the last three days (THE HOLIDAYS ARE OVER T.T), but I didn't because of afore-mentioned Japanese crisis.

Just fyi, the Jap thing didn't work out.... I mean, I suck at WRITING Japanese essays ANYWAY, so doing five in one day.... not possible. (eh, I usually take a week to do even one.....not unexpected ^^' So... Today is Monday, and Sawaki (sensei, btw) is going to have my head served on a silver platter by my parents (who I told I had done all essays.... I wanted to sleep!! Don't judge me!! T.T). Reason being, my parents will be at me for not doing it by hand (he SPECIFICALLY said for it to be done by computer. Not that I had enough time anyway....), and Sawaki will be at me for not doing it. Like, all of it. He doesn't accept partially done work.... or excuses, no matter how legitimate (but seriously, "the computer crashed/broke!!" has been done so many times it's beaten "dog ate the homework" like the.... I can't think of a good enough analogy. I was gonna say like the hare beat the turtle, but then I realised the TURTLE beat the hare. TONIKAKU!! kidding, kidding, I'm not turning into one of those irritating people who use Japanese words instead of English ones..... but anyway.

Now I will update. And go crazy on the laptop, cos my Dad got a deal with Optus (internet provider) and now we have LOADS of download, and I haven't been on the internet for entertainment in like TWO WEEKS!! (big deal, was going into internet withdrawal. Seriously, I was like "I miss the feel of headphones in my ear...." like you know, that feeling when you know you've had them in too long?) *cough* sorry. I'm slightly sleep deprived (read: HYPER) and had some chocolate too (read: SUGAR HIGHSUBLCNLWEUFN!!!!!!!!!!)

Yeah. So the point of the latest ramble, was to let y'all know, that I will be ignoring deviations and messages for a while (again) in favour of posting my own stuff and clearing out my inbox. Which is filled with "comment reply" things and letters from my friends. And shopping/movie/coffee requests which I will never be able to do now....oh well. I have a camera and packet of m&ms. Life is not so bad....

ps: I'm glad all of you are here to let me spill myself over. As you can tell, I just wrote down whatever popped into my head, in that order. So even if you don't read this, thanks.^^

pps: mwahahaha I finished watching Full Metal Panic recently as well. IT'S AWESOME!!!!!!!! I will save this rant for another day. I need to coherent for this one. ^^'
and here is the link to that Phenomenon amv I was watching. I DON'T LIKE NARUTO. But I think the amv was very skilfully done, well done Sierra-Lorna: [link]
And again ^^': the book I'm reading at the moment may seem REALLY cheesy because of the title, but seriously, the blurb had me hooked, and it's not cheesy. ^^. It's pretty good, actually.

I will start updating regularly once the holidays start, (one and a half weeks).

I'm reading a good book.It's called (the) Black Swan. The characters are EXTREMELY believeable (even if one of them is a sorceress..... oh well...). It's a fantasy book where all of the females are strong characters, yet everyone is seemingly blind to this fact.... (btw, set in a time when women are believed to be lowe than men, slaves/serfs exist, being of good breeding is everything)

It's not one of those women-are-as-good-as-men books, in fact, it doesn't seem to have a moral message at all as far as I can tell, but it's really intreresting.

It was my Ma's birthday yesterday, and people came over, and we had a party.

Aaaaaannnd......MANIFEST IS ON THIS WEEKEND!!! This is a big deal in Australia, for all you who don't live here..... We have one convention a year.... And you need to book way in advance. WHICH, I did. Wooooooo!!!!!

Although my mood says shame, I'm feeling a little mixed.

First: apologies for, once again ignoring my watch list..... and if you're expecting comments.... I dunno when I'll get back to you 0.0

Been feeling extremely lazy lately, and have also been dumped in homework. And other work, like subject selection at school and work experience O.o As a result, haven't spent much time on DA.

Also, I'm sorry for not uploading anything lately, but I promised myself to be more prolific in uploading my own stuff. Unfortunately, that means I have to ignore other people's stuff *shame*, because all I've been doing lately is LOOKING (no comments... sorry) at my watch list and surfing DA. And so my backlog of stuff-to-upload has gone through the roof. NO ONE IS EXPECTED TO COMMENT ON MY STUFF, for the simple reason that I'm not reciprocating.

But other than that, life's okay. Went to an awesome b'day party on Saturday night, held at a rollerblading rink. I learned to blade, but not how to blade and talk to someone at the same time ^^' I fell TWELVE (yes, kept count ) times, and have now lost my fear of falling. I'm bruised and my muscles hurt though...

Aaaaannd major assesment due on Friday.... Haven't started it though. Oh well. At least I've been getting a healthy amount of sleep.

In a good mood because today I did lots of work, sang my heart out in my room, drew something, updated my journal, and resolved to post more.

Okay. My first journal entry, and I'd like to say sorry to everyone on my watch list I've been ignoring. The reason for that is that that I've been on holiday in Europe for one month, and didn't do much in the way of art or DA while there, and now that I'm back, I'm like, drowning in homework cos I missed two weeks of school. I might however update now and then.... But I won't be loooking at anywhere else on DA. This is the closest I'll get to an internet ban (excluding hotmail, cos I use that to get my work to and from school). I promise I'll be back to normal once I get over this current homework crisis though, Thanks for understanding.
