----------------------------------------------

I've been thinking about a lot of things lately. I've had a lot on my mind, both personal and otherwise. Still don't have a job, and between the money I owe and the things I want to do/get, I'm gonna be in debt for quite a while even after I get a job. But, I'm ready to change the things I can control. I want a fresh start. I'm tired of being the way I am, and not having the drive necessary to change. I want to lose weight. I want to clean up the junk in my room and keep it clean. I want to start being healthier, and push myself to try new things.

I think I've decided to move to a new main account, though I'm not going to do it just yet. I'm probably not going to post any deviations for the next week until I decide for sure. I guess it's just part of the whole fresh start thing. I'm tired of the baggage here. I'll let you guys know when I officially move.

Anyway, I know I've been doing a lot of these lately, but I did another quiz, and this is actually one I've been wanting to do for a while and then forgot about. The characters were kind of random, though they're all from Fools Mate. All of their profiles are up in my scraps, though, if you want to read more about them.


Stolen from
1. Choose a few of your own characters. Five at the most.

Kirai: Shut up, would you?
Pallin: But -
Kirai: *talks over him* I'm 36.

B. Height?
Rook: 5'10
Darell: You're short. *snicker*
Rook: *glares*
Darell: uhm . . . *flustered* I'm like 6 foot? (6'1 actually)
Teng: I'm -
Pallin: 6'2. Same as me.
Teng: *sighs*
Kirai: 5'9. *glares at Darell*
Darell: *whistles and looks away*

C. Do you have any bad habits?
Rook: I've been told I have a bad temper. And I'm too sarcastic.
Darell: Probably. I don't know. *shrugs*
Kirai: Of course you do. You're loud and obnoxious and -
Pallin: and you're a pretentious bitch. Now shut up.
Kirai: *huffs*
Teng: Pallin, at least try to be nice.
Pallin: well, she is.
Kirai: You -
Rook: All of you shut up! Next question.

D. You a virgin?

Pallin: oww . . .

Kirai: definitely not.

G. Favorite food?

Kirai: That's not a food, dumbass.
Darell: *pouts* well, it's my favourite drink, doesn't that count?
Kirai: no.

Pallin: Oh you know that was fun.
Teng: It was in the line of duty. That's all.
Kirai: Yeah, right.
Rook: Not yet.
Darell: Nope!

J. Hate anyone?
Kirai: Yeah, him. *points to Darell* And Sahel.
Pallin: bitch.
Kirai: and him. *points to Pallin*
Pallin: *sticks his tongue out* It takes too much energy to hate.
Rook: Wow, Kirai, we agree on something.
*Pallin and Darell look offended*
Rook: Not you guys, Sahel.
Darell: Oh. Well . . . I don't really hate anyone either. *glares at Kirai* Well, maybe . . .
Teng: Hatred is a waste of time.

K. Any secrets?
Rook: I'm secretly a prince? Their prince? *points to rest of group*
Teng: It's a good thing this is outside of the story.
Kirai: *mutters something about not really hating Darell*
Darell: *completely misses it* I . . . have a crush on Zanel . . .
Rook: Everyone knows that.
Darell: *eyes widen* Really?
Pallin: Yeah. Really.
Teng: *mumbles* I like the colour pink . . .
Pallin: *chokes and falls over laughing*

L. Love anyone?
Rook: . . . . no. (He's totally lying.)
Teng: My job doesn't allow that.
Pallin: *making mocking hand motions behind him*
Teng: Stop it, Pallin.
Pallin: *freezes* O.o What the . . . You're creepy, bro.
Darell: I -
All: WE KNOW.

M. What is your job?
Rook: Sex?
Darell: Hah, good one. No, really, what is it?
Rook: Sex. I'm serious.
Pallin: *grins* Lucky.
Rook: *glares*
Pallin: Shutting up.
Teng: *rolls his eyes* I'm the Captain of the Hellguard. This numbskull is the Commander of the Royal division.
Pallin: *pouts*
Darell: I'm on the High Council in Hell.
Kirai: As am I.

N. Are you a boy or a girl?
Rook: Which do you prefer?
Darell: *Looks worriedly at him* I thought you were a guy.
Rook: I am. Most of the time.
Pallin: Everyone but her's a guy. *points to Kirai, who glares back* Next!

O. Family?
Rook: Pansy.
Teng: Don't talk about your father that way.
Rook: What? He is.
Teng: He's also the Lord of Hell.
Rook: And . . . your point is?
Teng: *sighs*
Pallin: *glomps Teng* Twins! *grins widely*
Darell: I've got a little sister. She still lives with my mom on earth.
Kirai: I have no family.

P. Best Friends?
Rook: Cecil, I guess. And Maria. . . . can you sleep with your best friend?
Pallin: I've done it.
Teng: Well of course you've done it.
Pallin: Hey! What does that mean?
Kirai: He means you're a whore.
Pallin: Bitch.
Darell: Well, when she's not in the way, Zanel.
Pallin: If not Teng, then probably Eril.

Q.Is there something that really bothers you?
Darell & Pallin: Her. *point to Kirai*
Kirai: Pansies.
Rook: Sahel.
Kirai: agreed.
Rook: People who take advantage of others. *Side glance at Kirai*
Teng: Certain peoples' lack of professionalism.
Pallin: Pofawhatism?
Teng: nothing.
Pallin: I want some meat!

R.Tell us a good memory of your childhood
Pallin: Well, there was this one time when we were like seven, and Teng was up in a tree and he --
Teng: *clamps hand over mouth* You are NOT telling that story. They asked for GOOD memories.
Pallin: *bites his hand* Well, it was good for me. It was damn funny.
Teng: Do you want me to tell them about when you tried to sneak out of the house and -
Pallin: NO. 0.0
Teng: *smiles* okay then. Keep your mouth shut.
Rook: *eyes the twins warily* I . . . don't have any.
Darell: Aw, come on, you gotta have some.
Rook: I really can't think of any. Maybe when I got a new book, or found out how not to burn my own room down.
Darell: Damn, man. That's depressing. Well, I got to surf on a manta ray one time. That was fuckin' awesome.
Kirai: So childish.
Darell: Uh, hellooo, it was my childhood? Of course I was childish! *mutters* But I'd do it again next chance I get.

S. Anything else you want to say before this is over?
Rook: Yeah. Get a life.
Pallin: I do. *points to Kirai* She's a bitch.
Kirai: And he's a pussy.
*Everyone stares*
Darell: Damn, lady. You got a mouth worse than me.
Kirai: I just know what and when to say it.
Teng: Just cut now before this gets any worse.

-----

Honestly, I really didn't think Kirai and Pallin would fight that much. O.o I was more worried about Darell. I'm tempted to do it again with different characters, just because it's fun. What do you think?


I tag:

I thought it was time I posted a new journal, even if it is just another meme. As for updates, uh . . . not much is happening right now. I may be getting a new job at Circuit City, I'll know in the next day or two. Evey () has moved in with me (like . . . over a month ago x.x) and I broke up with my boyfriend. On april fool's day no less. I honestly didn't realize that part until later. >.>;

My birthday's in one week, and then I'll be 21! I'm kind of excited, not really though because I've got too much other stuff to worry about right now. But Evey and Kayla are gonna spend my birthday with me, and we'll probably do a little cosplay photoshoot just because we can. And once Shipwreck opens Evey and I are gonna go, but we'll probably both have to buy new bathing suits before then. I hope not, though.

I'm really hoping to get the job at Circuit City, because I already owe my dad like $700 for car repairs and rent payments, and now I owe my mom over $400 by the end of April for car payments. aaahhhh . . . . . somebody buy something from me. Or . . . you know . . . tell me how to make money quick. x.x

YOU! Hey, you, look over here. I've been debating getting a different name here on dA. I know I have like four different accounts, but I'm talking about moving my main account to a different name. There's a lot of history and memories behind this name, but there's also a lot of baggage and everything too. I love this name, but I kind of want a fresh start. What do you guys think? I can't decide.


Anyway, there you go, you guys got updates. I'm not good at updating about my life. XD And here's a random quiz, because it was fun to do:

Stolen from . . . who didn't tag anyone. O.o

RULES!

1. tag 10 ppl (not the one who sent it to you!)

So, I'd kind of forgotten entirely about this list. but I'm still determined to get as many of these done as I can, between photographs and poetry.
~†~†~

Okay, let me point out that I'm not doing this to draw. I can't draw. Get over it. I'm doing this just because it's a good idea, and it's fun, and for once in my life (yeah right) I wanna jump on the bandwagon. XD So, no drawings for me. It'll be what I do; photography mostly, and poetry and maybe a few story scenes.
Oh and no, I won't be doing them in order, sorry. ^^

They become bold as they're finished, cause the link underline's hard to see sometimes. The link is, of course, the word itself.

The rules

1.) Make 100 pics each pic having a theme listed below. Each pic should have ONE and only ONE theme to it, for it to count.

2.) No time limit so have fun

3.) The main picture should be drawn but not limited to. for all fair purposes, people are allowed to use their paint programs and photo shop to create the pic.
Yeah I'm breaking that rule, get over it. Like I said, I don't draw. XD

3a.) pics should be of own artistic ability. You may not edit photos, or break any other rules set out in the Da etiquette policy. Your pics can be anything from sketches and doodles to great master pieces. Just have fun with it.

4.) The list below is to be placed somewhere in your journal for others to see that......
A.)You are in the challenge
B.)What you have completed

5.) make sure to update this list and check off what is done and make a link to the pic

6.) In the comments for your art work note if it is part of the list and what ONE theme it is.

I actually wrote this all up in here like, Monday, but then the computer froze, and I just barely saved it all. XD;;

Back from AnimeSouth. It was sooo much fun. XD A lot happened for such a small con. A lot of it was spontaneity started by the cosplayers, but that's what makes small cons so much fun. Since, as usual, I'm too lazy to write up any lengthy con report, I'll just throw up some stuff that happened.

I won Best Action in the AMV contest! I had a choice of two Trigun dvd's, and since I didn't really have time to find out which episodes they were I ended up picking the very last dvd in the series. XD
For those of you who've seen my videos, it was the Nemo one (to Advent Children) that won. For those of you who haven't seen it, if you want to, it's here --> Memory's Path and the other one I entered (that they said they liked almost as much XD) was Simple Passion
My group in the cosplay contest won best presentation. It was me, Miroku, Sango and Kouga (Yeah, I was kinda random but they wanted me to be in it. ). Sango started talking to Miroku about some "disturbing" pictures she had seen on the internet with him and Sesshoumaru, and he tried to explain that it was just from their skit last year, but I stepped in and said "well, there was that one time you came up behind me." and "just because I have long hair, doesn't mean I can bear your children, Miroku" which are jokes from the forums and from last year as well. Then Sango sang "If you were Gay" from Avenue Q, and Kouga and I held Miroku on stage while he protested. ^^
on Sunday we ended up playing a game of Duck Duck Goose, only it turned into Duck Duck Ninja when Naruto was It first. Then everyone who was picked did something different. Kiba did "genin, genin, genin, jounin!" and Light said "heart attack, heart attack, car accident!" and stuff like that. I was wearing tights under my outfit because I hadn't felt like wearing socks, so every time I was picked, I slipped, but I only lost once. ^^ We were allowed to have the special abilities of our characters, so Miroku had his wind tunnel, the ninjas had their jutsu, and I had my gun, So I just shot them. XD The first time I was picked, I shot Naruto as I jumped up, immediately did a face plant, grabbed onto his legs to keep him from getting away and practically crawled my way over to him. XD The one time I was it, I went around with "Oz, Oz, Oz . . ." and then "Gundam Pilot?" to Sakura. XD It was so much fun.
after the con we went to the Hard Rock cafe, which we had planned just ahead of time enough to close them down just for us. It was great.
I met a girl who was wearing a Green Monkies t-shirt from the Legends of the Hidden Temple, and we became immediate friends. She was so great. XD

So much more happened, so I'll just randomly add to this journal as I remember stuff. XD Cause right now my hands are too shaky to type much more.
I took roughly 150 pictures, and I'll probably put them up on photobucket for people to see since I have to finish last year's and put up metrocon on group-photos before I can post them. I'll post a link when I get them up.

And, just because I did it and it was funny, I'll add this:

1.YOUR PORN STAR NAME
(name of first pet + street you live on):
Kiwi Montana

2. YOUR MOVIE STAR NAME
(grandmother's/father's first name + favorite snack)
Susie Cheezit XD

3. YOUR FASHION DESIGNER NAME
(first word you see on your left + favorite restaurant)
Q McDonald

4. YOUR SOCIALITE NAME
(silliest childhood nickname + first town where you partied):
Seashell Panama (City)

5. YOUR "FLY GIRL/GUY" NAME
(first initial + first three letters of your last name)
Smax XD I love it

6. YOUR DETECTIVE NAME
(favorite animal + name of high school):
Cat Arnold

7. YOUR BARFLY NAME
(last snack food you ate + your favorite drink)
