On New Year's Eve I drove down to San Jose, back to the apartment. I had to square away writing some checks before the beginning of the new month, but also to attend our New Year's Eve party. I don't know why I thought it'd be different from the other parties we'd had, but I figured this one might stand out. ...Beer pong, blaring music and half- ( Read more... )

I think there's only about three more weeks in the semester. I can't say classes have been running perfectly smoothly, but I tend to get more productive under pressure. Well, marching band's an easy A, astronomy is fairly easy mostly because of the teacher, and the lithography classes...well, a few all-nighters in the lab should do it. Only art ( Read more... )

Hmm, so due to some errors on my part, I just now noticed that I have to take more classes than I previously thought. Specifically, I was reading the major form from 2006, when the most recent is 2008. But come on, the 2006 one is the current on their website; it was a mistake waiting to happen. So I have two extra classes to take, raising my ( Read more... )

I went to Toys R Us to get my Arceus being offered this week via wireless Mystery Gift, and I found a Sky Form Shaymin doll. I had to buy it, because of my fetish for grass pokemon. That makes three grass pokemon plushies in my collection: Chikorita, Roserade, and Shaymin. They're even similar in size, so they look like good buddies being all ( Read more... )

Still watching through the episodes my friend gave me, I'm around episode 55 so I'm well into the second arc. Oh man, it reminds me so much why I wanted my first cosplay to be Eriol, but I had to settle for Weevil Underwood because Eriol's outfit (not to mention his staff) would be quite difficult to make ( Read more... )

Well, I finally wrote a message basically saying "see ya later" on the P:U! website. It's not a forever good-bye, at least I hope not. Like I've said, I just wasn't into it and have been busy drawing for other things. Lately I signed up to take part in the Phoenix Wright Musical Project, so I'm looking forward to helping their art team ( Read more... )

Recently I found the English Cardcaptors on Youtube, and watched the show for the first time in about seven years. I now remember why I used to think the original Japanese version was weird. I'm just used to it now, but thinking about it, it's a little messed up ( Read more... )

I found a foot-and-a-half tall stuffed Totoro at a garage sale Sunday. It was going for five bucks, but as it was late in the day, I managed to get it for three. It's really cute, and has stubby arms that make it seem to beg to be lifted up and hugged. So I like to hug it every so often ( Read more... )

Lately I've been getting pretty hyped for Rock Band: The Beatles, so I've been watching videos of their concerts and listening to their music. I first heard of the Beatles when I was maybe 8 or 9; there was a reference to a yellow submarine in the SNES game Earthbound that had to be explained to me. When I first heard their music, mostly the ( Read more... )
