Life other than video games
Well, lets see...
Art/Kabuki: I'm so into this comic... I adore it... the art is so amazing David Mack is a god! I love his work... I've decided I want to learn how to draw... so I picked up a book at the Omer DeSerres Express... It's basically writing about the materials and the various techniques all leading up to the merging of techniques by merging drawing into painting... It doesn't tell you what to do... but instead it lays out your options... what you can draw WITH... draw ON... and various ways/techniques people have used in draying... it's not one of those books that shows you how to draw hands in one specific way... rather it shows you possible ways you can draw anything you want... though, most of the examples are landscapes... I want to be able to draw like my favorite artists... jeez even improving a little is good enough for me... right now I can draw chibi... I want more than that... I want better than that...
School: I dunno if I'm accepted or not yet... and I don't know what to do... before I was all torn up cause I didn't know what to do: stay in a program I don't like or apply to something new that I really love... well I applied to the something new but I dunno if I got in! I'm like freaking out! I hate waiting! It's driving me nuts! **ARGH** I better throw myself into something before I go nuts...
Work: On the upside, work is great. I got transfered to another department and I still help out my old department sometimes. But yesterday I had an exam and well, apparently they missed me. I'm very agreeable, when asked to do something I almost never say no... unless I really can't do it... so they missed me while I was away, but unfortunately no one was able to fill in for me in doing the returns so I came back to over twice the normal amount of work and I was having trouble getting it all done when they started asking for help again... I was trying to learn the new stuff in my new office and every 10 minutes or so I had to run out cause someone on my old team needed my help... in the end my new boss almost threw a fit... she was all "I'm not mad for me, I'm mad for her, she spends most of her time with neither team! She spends it running between them! So figure it out! Is she really transfered or is she doing both! This isn't fair to her..."
Video Game: I'm into Soul Reaver. I beat the spider vamp. I'm hoping nothing is as ugly and creepy as him as his minions. Isn't there supposed to be a way to wipe out the vamps in the Cathedral when he's dead though?
Manga: Well, I'm so into shoujo right now! Give me romance and mushiness! I love to watch characters fall in love ^_^ Really into Kaikan Phrase (aka Sensual Phrase) it's the manga/anime that launched Aucifer... so it's tres cool and the anime has great music...
OKcupid: I have two guys that I talk to now... Dave and Chris... both from my area... they seem nice. But, I'm reluctant... no offence to either of them, they are wonderful to talk to, but... I'm in no rush to meet a POTENTIAL psychopath...
Computer: My father's computer is a total annoyance. My father's an annoyance. You see our basement computer is his and it sucks. It's a P3 with 192 mb of RAM and a 6 GB harddrive. The processor is slow as all hell! And it runs Win98... and has a Win32 trojan... I want him to reformat with our copy of Win2000... that whole thing is a piece of crap... it's an HP minitower... most of the cards were integrated... when we changed to high speed we had to take out the modem which was also our sound card.... so we cannot listen to music anymore... speaking of music: MY MP3 PLAYER (IRIVER) CAN EAT THIS THING!!!! Anyways, the money I spent on Kabuki, my manga, the drawing book and the day I took off of work... it may have pushed the acquisition of my computer back a bit... I mean I put the stuff on my credit card and I can differ payment on it for a time... so I can get it despite the money I spent... hopefully...
