For the

Dear Secret Santa and your fellow apprentice, Santa Finland! I would like to receive at least one of the following!

1.) A cute non yaoi picture of America and Canada.

2.) A picture of sleepy/ing Greece and a cat XD or a picture of Russia and a sunflower.

3.) A picture of Nitaly and Sitaly being brotherly (nonyaoi ;3) or Nitaly and Germany doing whatever your heart so desires~ (G RATED) OR. a picture of Austria with Germany or Hungary.

You may draw whichever one you choose however you'd like! Chibi, regular, it doesn't matter!
Thank you so much!! I can't wait .

So before I even begin this journal properly, check out this song!! [link] (Ignore the subs if you will, I do!)
Saying I'm in love with this guy would be an understatement! The video is great too.
I wish I was Korean...

Dammit Shalom!

So hello everyone.
Happy to report I haven't had my brace on for like. A week or two. So my first doctor lied to me. They were like "at least 6 weeks!"
Yeah, I had it on for what, three? And I took it off everyday to draw and write. So that was a total waste of emotional breakdowns and bitter attitudes towards the world! (I took not being able to draw very hard)

In other news, My computer has a huge virus!
So if diagnosing and fixing it goes well, I'll have a happy working computer. If not, I lose Photoshop CS3 and my recent projects!

Man.

Got a DS. And along with that, *drumroll*, KINGDOM HEARTS 358/2 DAYS!! I'm on day 256... But i'm stuck on this boss in Halloween Town that I can't figure out how to beat. So, until I figure out how to do that. I'm playing my Pokemon Diamond game that my awesome friend Christian got me!! Turtwig is my baby, well now he's Grotle. That's the name i think anyway, I nicknamed him Jem! And my Staravia is named Mercutio! I love the books we read in English class... <3!

I hate when people steal my keychains. Nothing pisses me off more. One of my friends took off my Roxas keychain I bought from as like a joke or something. I got it back the next day but for whatever reason it wouldn't stay on like it did before. It fell off next to my locker and I put it back on and went home but the next day I couldn't find it on my backpack. So, yeah I'm super fucking pissed about that. It's not her fault that for whatever reason the keychain refused to stay on after she took it off but she never should have taken it off in the first place. You know, I don't see how taking somebody's stuff and hiding it is funny. It isn't. But whatever, she should buy me a new one. I'm really upset.

Now I'm in a bad mood again.

It's been raining for like, 3 days straight.

About requests and art trades: I don't think I'm ever gonna take them again. They're just too much of a pain in the ass, and they're usually not fun at all (Usually). So, no more of those. Don't ask me. If it's your birthday or something I'll draw you a picture maybe. But don't ask. You can suggest things, but they'll never make it on an 'Oh so and so is requesting this i HAVE to draw it' kinda list.

I can play with two hands on the piano now. . I'm learning how to play Hikari by Utada Hikaru now with the help of a handy tutorial via youtube. It's a long and complicated song though! At least for me anyway, i'm such a n00b! *wants to take lessons* I pretty much have Dearly beloved down. The REALLY simple version where its just a few notes in repetition. I want to learn some add ons to it but I need to find a good tutorial, can't read sheet music at this moment.

I have terrible memory where I can't remember things I said 20 seconds ago.
I need help!

Bye.

So, two of you commented on my last journal. Well I'm glad not a lot of you read it. I deleted it anyways, haha. But basically the journal said that I was injured and would be unable to draw for 6 weeks about. Well I'm still injured. But instead of a cast that would have pretty much made it impossible for me to draw a straight line, they gave me a removable brace.

The reason the cast would have made drawing impossible was because it was so thick that it elevated my wrist above the table about an inch and a half. Also the splint I had on before came about half way up my fingers making it impossible to grasp my pencil the normal way i do. My new brace doesn't even touch my fingers (except my thumb) and is much, much thinner. So i can hold the pencil almost the same as if I didn't have the brace. Only thing is I can't draw using my wrist. Gotta use the shoulder and arm. Pretty annoying for me. But hell, much better then before!!!

Drawing is still quite challenging none the less. So, I won't be drawing anything new probably. But. Since I can still do some stuff I think I'll try to color all the drawings that I haven't finished.

So... maybe you'll see something new!

So summer is nearly over. School starts Thursday. Wednesday for the middle schoolers hahaaaaa! My sister is starting middle school! I'm sad.
I'm starting 10th grade, how exciting! I hope I have classes with my friends. How childish. I didn't last year and I made a bunch of new friends! But still, :-[.
Bobby, my cousin, graduated and is now in college. Le tear.

Anyways, so came to my house for two or so weeks and has left. I MISS YOU LYSSA!!!! SAY HI TO AARON FOR ME!!!

Obsession of the moment: Piano. Holy crap I've spent the last 2 nights up until 4 a.m. listening to people play the piano on youtube while drawing. For instance, right now I'm listening to kylelandry on youtube play his extreme version of Dearly Beloved. It's absolutely beautiful. I'd love to take lessons. My dad says I can, my sister takes them and we own a piano and everything. But I have to wait for my brother to finish school. My mom and dad are paying for his school, his apartment, his car plus gas, and his food (though he claims he survives off of rice and tuna). He has absolutely no money. No one will hire him! He finishes school in one month. When he's done he will be a certified fitness trainer and will hopefully get a job!!! I'd really like to self teach myself too... But I'm too embarrassed to even touch the piano with my family home. Especially my brother who is like a musical genius or something. Whatever.

Artsy Corner: Started the 100 theme challenge. Again. HAHAHAHAHA.
I have... what, two done? Actually 3. I posted one on tegaki E though and I don't' particularly like it. So I never posted it here. And. And. MY TABLET BROKEEEE! The sensor thingy got lodged inside the tablet pen. It's usable. But it's very hard to draw with. I just use it for editing purposes now.

I'm worried. I wasn't able to go to Taekwondo for forever since I had family over and friends and we kept going places and doing things. Testing for my orange and green stripe belt IS on September 3 and I don't think I'll be ready!!! Oh yeah, and remember I said i was going to do Warrior Camp? So that I could get my next belt overnight? IT WAS HELL. It was like boot camp. Little kids were crying!

I haven't been cult following any anime right now. But, I finished book 2 of Pendragon. I WANTED TO CRY IT WAS SO UPSETTING!!!

DISSIDIA COMES OUT TODAY IN NORTH AMERICA!!! YES IT DOES! YES IT DOES!!! PICKING UP MY COPY AFTER MY ORTHODONTIST APPOINTMENT!!!

...I HAVE BRACES!!! WAHHHHHH!!!

Games I want that are out or almost out:
-Pokemon Pearl
-Final Fantasy: Dissidia (GETTING TODAY WOOHOO)
-Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days (SOON. SOON)
-Sonic Unleashed

Also, been playing Legend Of Zelda Ocarina of Time. It kicks ass!!!

Okay, that all for my senseless update!

Flip those around, that's the order this is going in.

First of all. OH MY GOD. Ouran High School Host Club fans. Were you all aware that they are/were/whatever releasing CD's with the Host Club SINGING!?!? As in TAKASHI MORINOZUKA and KYOUYA OHTORI are singing. SINGING!

Mori: [link]
english lyrics: [link]

Kyoya: [link]

I absolutely ADORE THEM. I usually only watch this show in English but now... AHHH!!! Their Japanese voice actors are superb. Mori's song is so cute. And Kyoya's is just... aw. JUST THE THOUGHT OF BOTH OF THEM SINGING MAKES THE FANGIRL BLOOD RUSH THROUGH MY VEINS ALMOST FASTER THEN RENGE'S!!! I can't stop listening to these. I can almost sing them both fully in Japanese now XD. THAT'S HOW OBSESSED I AM. I really hope they release the rest of the Host Club soon. I can't wait for Tamaki's and Haruhi's. The twins should be really good too! ... AND HUNNY!!! OH MY GOD!! His will be the best XD.

I'm about two weeks into summer gym at this moment. Kill me, I'm so exhausted! It's tiring business! Two more weeks left. It ends on the 24 but then on that night I think I'm going to sign up for Warrior Camp at the place I take Taekwondo. Warrior Camp: July 24 at 7:00p.m. to July 25 1:00p.m. (graduation is at 1). If I do this then at the end of it I will be able to move up a belt and then test for another belt next testing. So It'll be like getting an extra belt. But apparently it's really hard. And seven in the afternoon is when it starts? Do they keep us up all night?? That will suck!

Oh and I'm sure none of you noticed, I deleted approximately 35 of my deviations. It felt good <3

GUESS WHAT GUYS!? I'm getting braces July 29. I'll have them on for 27 months. WAHHHHHH! I don't like this.

Art, art, arttttttt. I'm working on a big picture. I've spent about a week and a half's worth of drawing on it. I'll get it out ASAP. It needs about another weeks worth of work I think.

Oh, started the 100 Theme Challenge again. Yeah I'm crazy.

Transformers 2, It was alright. But I wasn't a huge fan of the first one either. I like Leo hahaha.

R.I.P. Michael Jackson. I never believed you raped those little boys. I hope you're at peace in heaven <3

IS COMING TO VISIT ME ON THE 31ST FOR 2 WEEKS!! YAY *JUMPS UP AND DOWN* IT'S BEEN ABOUT 3 YEARSSS!! We're going to party.

I hope I can submit some new work soon. Preferably colored and presentable.

I should be cleaning my room...
nahh...
