Take Me to a Nuclear Reactor

Was awesome! :D I'm so broke!! I bought:

-A Tombstone poster, with (allegedly) Val Kilmer's signature. I didn't really care if it's fake or not, TBH. I just wanted the poster. ^^;

-An Umbrella Corporation "parking permit" and "special forces" badge", 'cause I thought they were funny. Was going to get a GeneCo badge, but I figured two badges were enough.

-So I got a GeneCo pin, as well as a Doctor Who pin with the old-school diamond logo.

-A Star Wars t-shirt, for by nephew's birthday, which I was contemplating keeping for myself.

-An X-Men mini-series (I forgot which one, probably Astonishing X-Men), also for my nephew's birthday, also something I was contemplating keeping for myself.

-Seven Soldiers of Victory: Zatanna mini-series.

I had to stop then, seeing as how I was steadily wasting most of my paycheck on overpriced con merchandise, instead of something useful, like school books. Well, the mini-series were half off...

I also met James Marsters. Yaaay! He was really nice-- seemed kind of out of it, but really nice. I also saw Tom Felton, but I didn't get to meet him. :( Sadly, I forgot my camera both days, so no pictures. Booooo.

This was my second convention (the first was the New York Comic Con/Anime Fest at the Javits Center), and even though it was smaller, it was just as much fun. I'm definitely going to the next one -- and cosplaying, if I can. ;p

So I wrote a ten page paper in an hour and a half this morning. (or should that be yesterday morning...?)

Moral of the story: I'm fucking awesome Don't procrastinate next time, especially since I had a fuck ton of time to write it in a timely and - less frantic - manner.

In other news, Pokemon are hard to draw, and finals start tomorrow... yippee.

( Bear! )

So it pretty much rained all of last week. Boo.

But then it cleared up yesterday! Hooray!

Then it started to rain again. Boo.

Now it's supposed to rain all week. Double boo.

Well, it didn't rain today, but it was horribly humid and too hot (by my standards). But it certainly looked that way, and I'm not holding out for a reprise tomorrow.

I like rain - it's fun to splash around in, yaay - and anything above 65 is, in my opinion, way too hot. But seriously, all this rain is bumming me out. Stupid April. :(

So here's a drawing of Perry holding a puppy in the rain! Because that's totally something Perry would do.

( Not Harry, btw. An actual puppy. )

In other news, I've been playing a lot of Pokemon recently. Currently level grinding in Pokemon White, trying to get my team up to speed for the Elite Four, and recently restarted FireRed, after realizing that the team I had throughout the duration of the game really, really, really sucked. And I was wondering why I never faced the Elite Four. Hopefully, this run will turn out better.

Why the eff am I mentioning this? No reason-- just expect some Pokemon related fanart coming soon. Maybe even some KKBB/Pokemon fanart? ;p Who knows.

“Good-bye, my Sarah Jane." -The Doctor

Elisabeth Sladen, better known as Sarah Jane Smith of Doctor Who fame and The Sarah Jane Adventures, died today.

She was only sixty-three. I'm at a loss. She was an amazing actress, and she seemed like an amazing human being. You will be missed, Ms. Sladen. :(

Well, that just totally squelched my previous squee of the day. :[ Fuck censorship.

Me: Hmm, I've had this eyebrow ring in for three months, maybe I can finally change it... [poke poke poke]

[End piece falls off, falls down sink]

Me: D8!! ...Well, guess I have to change it now... -_______________-

[school!]

[buying stuff!]

Me: Okay, which way does this thing unscrew? [fidget fidget fidget]

[Ring slips, falls down school sink]

Me: ...FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU--

Random Girl: o_____o [scoots away]

Yes, this actually happened last week. Yes, I am stupid and clumsy. >_>

...So how about those DDoS attacks?

In other news, I have three papers due next week (NOOOOO), and a short that needs filming tomorrow morning (YAAAAAY), with no one to actually film (NOOOOO). I need more college friends...

For the 100 Themes Challenge:

( Number 48: Original Character )

( And speaking of gender flips... )

That's all for now!

And not just any update - an art update? Say it ain't so!

It is so! I feel like I should say it was something big and grandiose that got me doodling again. Nah, it was just an awesome little movie called Kiss Kiss Bang Bang that gave me the urge to put pen to paper again. Funny how that works.

I got to say, though, it feels weird. After months (and months and months and months...) of not picking up a pencil and paper for anything other than school work or a simple doodle (probably on the margins of said school work), to suddenly going back to sketching things for hours... it's surreal. But comforting. I didn't realize how much I missed it until I actually sat down and did it.

...I'm really, really out of practice though. Months of inactivity have done nothing to what little talent (or "talent") I had before hand.

General silliness and fluff behind the cut, all SFW:

( Let's ignore the fact that nobody looks like they ought to, mmm'kay? )

That's all for now. Let's hope I can keep the momentum up! [fingers crossed]

You know that post, way back when, where I said that I would update more frequently?

Yeah, me neither.

Seriously, though, I will. Update more frequently, that is. Not remember the post way back when.

...God, I'm stupid. ._____.
