Life

- Well, work is gonna suck pretty soon, I can tell. We've already had some little delinquents stealing, some woman trying to buy stuff with fake one-hundred dollar bills, etc. And it's not even as close to Christmas as it is Thanksgiving yet ;;. People are scary... I dun wanna get trampled or killed.
- Yoshi (my dog) has been having trouble eating so today I'm taking him to the vet for a check up /o/ and hopefully to get those god-awful long nails clipped.
- My throat hurts right now, and if I get sick, I swear... *empty threat*
- Other than that, not much, been angsty and more angst, but I blame the womanly gift from hell that comes around each month.

Drawing

- I actually feel artsy! I haven't really been doing much to upload, but I've been drawing without wanting to slit my throat so that's something. Been doing a lot of planning with my friend, Lurulei, about character/story stuff, which is fun.
- LOTS of TM (tinierme) fanart... they are just so damn cute omg. Ok, not lots, but, 'lots' since... er, yeah, I usually don't draw anything worth uploading cept maybe once every two months; if even that.

Gaming

- Unless TM counts as a game... not much. Usually when I'm over at Lurulei's I'm watching HER play. Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, and now Muramasa: The Demon Blade. We are planning to do our "SHITTY/TEDIOUS GAME HOWEVER MUST BEAT" marathon though... which so far consists of Chocobo's Dungeon 2, Galerians Ash, and Ephemeral Fantasia. YEAH! LET'S DO IT!

Random: I hope I can get myself a cellphone today... that or a PS3. I'M READY.

It would have been... happy that is, until I remember I have to go to work in 40 minutes. ADFJKJKF WAI WALMART. WAI WOULD YOU MAKEZ ME WORK ON HALLOWEEN FOR 9 HOURS! There's no need for that, is there? Really? Really? Srsly? Yeah. Dai. Not only that, I was hugely disappointed from yesterday.

See, I already had it in my head I was going to miss halloween completely given my schedule... no dressing up, no going around and getting candy despite being probably-too-old. But no, Tuesday, an employee on break asked me what I was going to be for Halloween. With a deadpan face, I replied "A cashier." and then he's like "well right, but, you get to dress up" suddenly, refueled I was like "REALLY?!! WE GET TO DO SOMETHING FUN HERE??!" And I was really excited for once. Sure i'd have to work, but it'd be neat to dress up and stuff.

But no. Just today, I was informed that was taken away from us. No costumes today, and in fact, starting now (after 10 years) everything will be strict dress code. Meaning, we don't even get to wear jeans every friday like we have gotten too. Honestly, i forget to wear jeans so it doesn't really affect me, but ITS THE PRINCIPLE OF THE THING. KLJKLFJKLF ;~; I wanted to dress up...

Anyways. Happy Halloween to the rest of you. Hope you have fun, dun do anything stupid and all of that.

Also: WHO THE EFF WOULD KEEP IT AT 65 DEGREES IN THIS HOUSE. AKLJDFJKLFJK *finding just about anything to complain about--ignore.*

The more I hear stuff from it, the more I want it.

An expected 70+ hours of game play?? You know I'm gettin' that shit right thar. Oh yeaaah *kool-aid-man style* It sounds like it's going to be different from everything I'm used to compared to the tales-of games I've played so far, but that won't necessarily be a bad thing, right? The character designs look pretty neat and the battle system looks spiffy... again, that might not mean much, but who knows?

Plus... I've just really been wanting a good rpg for the wii. And at the length I'm hearing, it has me looking forward to it, so.

OF COURSE THAT'S HOPING THEY'LL BRING IT TO THE U.S. lol. Ugh >> and then the curiosity of which voice actors they'll use. FFF. There's still fun stuff to discover as time moves on, so I'm interested to see what develops later~

Happy Birthday

~* *~

I've been reading people's webcomics lately and geez does it make me want to get better! I haven't really looked much at other's stuff lately, and I really should! It's so inspiring! Everything really... from the page setups to their manga or the art entirely, the shades and tones they use, people's use of perspective and backgrounds; there's so much I can't do--not at that level anyway. It makes me want to beg them to teach me their secrets; but I know deep down I just have to practice.

Wah, I just feel like I don't have as much time to draw--or that if I drew instead of other things, I wouldn't get to talk to my friends as much... which already feels very limited having a job now. Mainly because---when I start drawing something, I'm usually very committed to it until completion (I have a bad tendency to never finish something if I DON'T finish it that day) and it makes me rather anti-social.

Still--I'd really like to do a webcomic of my own! _{(probably only saying this cause I'm hyped off inspiration... seeing as Untouched remains.... untouched.)} But gaaah, I don't know. People are just really amazing!!


_{And on a random note: I HATE MY NAME ON dA!!! And I wish they'd have a thing where you could change it--even if it costs money, I would totally do it at this point. My only reason for NOT making another account: Really do not want to find and re-watch all the gazillionz of people I watch already. 8< I'd be really distraught if I missed out on artists' deviations.}

Since I'm sure at least one of you guys use tablets (or a good number of you), there has to be something...

Here's the dealio yo. My tablet was working fine in Photoshop CS2 just a short while ago when I was just doing random crapz, but finally, when I decide to color something, I go in there, and realize I have no pressure sensitivity.

I tried:
1) Checking to make sure my tablet was still plugged in, closed out of Photoshop and restarted the program.
2) Clicked my tablet icon and did a test (confused because it seemed to be working fine in the tablet test, pressure sensitivity that is.)
3) Did the same in (1), but then unplugged my tablet, restarted the computer, put my tablet back in, went back into Photoshop.
4) Disabling and then re-enabling through My Computer -> properties -> devices blah blah blah

Any ideas? :<

Ahem... Yeah, okay guys... problem fixed itself somehow. I decided I'd just try to color it without the pressure sensitivity, but then as I was changing my brush size it suddenly went back to normal.

Thank you for all your advice and help; sorry for wasting your time. OTL.

_{*wants to keel whatever made that happen in the first place*}
