( oh hai distraction )

One of these days i'll actually get around to finishing the Golden Compass books. *stares at dusty bookshelf* among other things.

In other news, fanfiction is an amazing distraction for a whole lotta awful. now if only i could get my stupid ass to WRITE IT, i might avoid a last minute panic next week.
*coughs* lets see how long those good intentions last me -.-
I'm srsly LOLing at myself right now for reading Legion fanfic, but damnit, it's better than the movie. more Gabe/Mike plz, i miss my own.

and of course, my heart goes out to my poor fauxfaia. <3 u bb, i'm here if you need me and you know it. day or night.

OH HAI THAR AWESOME WASTE OF TIME
that was actually more thought-provoking than i thought it would be.
*stolen from maychorian
i'll post something real-ish that isn't a meme eventually X)

Association Meme: Comment to this post and I will give you 5 subjects/things I associate you with. Then post this in your LJ and elaborate on the subjects given.
*words from Sako*

1. Sailor Moon
hahaha, yah, i guess that one's kind of a no brainer. Sailor Moon was my first love when it came to both anime and learning to draw. I traced a lot back then, overtop of really badly printed scans of sailor moon characters straight from the show so that i could color them. then just started drawing them on my own and went from there :3 it'll always be 'that one thing' that i can love and be embarrassed by at the same time. prolly forever.

2. Gay Angel Porn.
i blame molly for this. i srsly duo. it's completely her fault. if it hadn't been a bribe, if i didn't have to do angel porn for her just to get her to kiss me, than none of this would have happened. tease. of course, it's then my fault for continuing, but hey, i got to draw both pretty wings and pretty men making out. ftw. \m/

3. Media Addiction
wellll, ok. yah. the fact that i have about 400 dvd's prolly wouldn't help any sort of argument for that. i love movies. in fact, growing up, i loved them so much i wanted to be IN movies. and i don't mean as in, acting in them, but being behind the scenes. Hell, i'd have been happy holding the damn grip mic so long as i was THERE and a part of it. Never came to pass, but doesn't stop me from being fascinated, and the extras that come on dvd's were made specifically for people like me. i eat em up like candy. LIKE CANDY.
and i love going to the movies. it's just one of those things i will forever associate with good times.

4. Self Esteem
there's a lack thereof. i struggle with it, i deny it, i spit on it. without really knowing why, to be honest, aside from habit and dislike. the fact that it's really that noticeable bothers me sometimes, but it's not like i can back it up all that much. i don't have a lot of confidence in myself or what i do, despite the fact that i still continue to do it regardless. just another one of those things that i wish wasn't an issue :(

5. Natural Dancer
LOL, now that's a matter of opinion X) sure, i LOVE to dance, but not all those who sing can keep a tune. I'd like belly dance so much more if i could stand to watch myself do it, but truly, i just need to get back into practice. i have a love of music and movement that makes me wish i could do it all the time and never tire, which someday, i hope to do just that.
just gotta work on these damn hips first.

oh, and speaking of the Sako, I'm pimping this out for anyone who might be interested:
HELP PAY SAKO'S RENT
Her prices for art commishes and services are crazy low, so if anyone can help out, it would be so much appreciated. She's awesome and very wonderful to speak to, so don't be shy. She just happens to be a bit poor atm. help a starving artist in need plz!

in the meantime, i'm not having an awesome evening anymore thanks to a couple of badly timed phonecalls. one of my dear friends lost his mother last night and mom got dumped once AGAIN by asshole of the year.
i keep trying, but my lips may as well be sewn shut for all the good it does.
i'm going to bed.

O_O
WEIRD TEST IS WEIRD.

LOL.

cause i needed a good chuckle.
oog. man. schedules are crazy and EVERY.ONE.WANTS.TO.SEE.ME.ALL.OF.A.SUDDEN.WTH.
when did i get so damned popular? x.x
and i'd totally be up for going out and just hanging with everyone if not for things being so crazy lately. so bear with me, humans. i am but a single (yet awesome) person who hates making plans. work with me here.
work is hectic, yet manageable. gonna be in charge of training for the next two weeks, so getting prepared has been kinda nerve wracking.
been drawing like a madwoman (when i have the time), but not enough coloring.
kat wants me this weekend, going camping next weeked with sako, family reunion the following one (without my brothers tho. WOE.) and then...something something something i should write these things down.
x_X
peaceful sleep is for the weak.
my next planned vacation will be a scheduled week long coma methinks. i'll be traveling first class, of course.
guh, why can't i lose weight when i'm stressed like normal crazy people? XP

I don't usually do these, but since I'm feeling disgustingly nostalgic lately (despite venereal disease day coming up) wth, why not. that and I always feel bad whenever I get tagged and don't return it. So then, since beautifulfic tagged me:

Pick 10 people and give them the "You Make my Day" award. If you're picked, you are charged with picking 10 of your own. (of which, none of you really have to do it, lol.)
1.beautifulfic - because you tagged me with this, and because you've been so sweet and fun to talk to, despite the fact that you barely know me.

2.happytemplar - even though i know you barely check here anymore, oh well. Because if I didn't love you, I'd kill you. and I mean that with the utmost adoration.

3.dizziness - for being my cranky, pain in the butt muse with all the benefits of glorious inspiration. And for reminding me that not everything is my fault, even when you're beating it into me.

4.sunseenli - there aren't enough of the right words to say why. you just do, for a million different reasons. and i love you for all of them.

5.shadrad - even though I don't see you as often as I'd like, it makes those times I do all the more worth it. You say it like it is, and I respect you for that kind of courage.

6.psychosako - for never failing to make me feel beautiful.

7.lunarei - because you're crazy. plain and simple. X)

8.fauxfaia - just being in the room with you makes me smile, laugh and be myself. I'm never apologetic around you, and I'm never self conscious.

9.deepbluepuddle - you know why i love you X)

10.wodhaund - cause you know i adore you. and because you let me molest you. X3
fin
