Rar. I want to download PSP, but version 7 recommends a 500 megahertz processor and Malfactor is 133 megahertz. And Bryan won't give me an older version because he's a whore. .__.; I just want to make thumbnails and clean up my images... .__.;;

Updated my links.. x_x

You know, the Fox Family cartoon Braceface (starring the voice of Alicia Silverstone, no less) is actully pretty neat..the art is really cute (a little anime-ish but obviously american) and I love the boy Conner. X3

(yes, I watch Saturday morning cartoons)

How the hell am I supposed to be angry with my friends when they're already unhappy? God damn it. =P

Woo! I just saw a Harry Potter trailer on TV! :D :D :D (and it was different than all the ones I've seen so far!) This movie is going to be so cool XD Everyone go see it! Give JK Rowling your money. X3

It's late (and ugly), but it's here.

Tomorrow's Karma page suffers from a serious case of unfunny, but it was good drawing practice anyway.

Today was a very long and very lame day. But at least I have an A in French--and just barely, by the skin of my teeth, a B in Physics. Hopefully I can still manage a 90 for the semester if I really try for the next two grading periods (so I won't have to take the exam, a privilege afforded only to seniors--and only to seniors with less than 3 absences and a 90 average).

Watch out for this, everybody. -_-;

Taiboo, I think there's something wrong this Photoshop... ^^; It won't save as anything but .psd and it won't open .gifs... (plus making thumbnails [which is what I really need a graphics program for] is a pain ^^;)

Monday's Child is fair of face
Tuesday's Child is full of grace
Wednesday's Child is full of woe
Thursday's Child has far to go
Friday's Child is loving and giving
Saturday's Child works hard for a living
But Sunday's Child is fair and wise

--I was born on a Wednesday -_-

Okay, I've posted something new in nearly every forum(except Fatal... just couldn't think of anything relevant/interesting/whatever :\). x_x

::falls over:: I actually said a curse word when I saw that. XD;; Damn you to hell, bitch. XD;; (And I say that in the friendliest way possible :B) Look, you can even see that I didn't even know how to use COMMAS properly back then. God. >_>; (this is why I am jealous of Kylee, because she has so much more enlightenment now than I had at her age.. as is CLEARLY evidenced by even those little snips, which were all written when I was 12 or thereabouts--give or take a year either way, depending).

And there is new Karma today, too. :3 And a new character (come on, you knew a purple-haired person had to show up SOMETIME...).

Nichole, I just found this...it is so pretty! I hadn't seen the Necavi one before either. I luv U. .__. (you have a rather nice Sean one as well, that was thankfully not lost in the great reformat AND the great loss of one of my geocities directories x__x)

I really need to update the fanart for Claris..and for my other works too.. I don't have scores of it (I think, actually, just one or two for each...possibly none for Clarity, I dun know^^;), of course, but I know that when I give people an art gift I sure do like to see it up on their page. -_- I'm sorry; I suck. I've been really scattered lately and also, I make thumbnails for Claris and Karma stuff, and I haven't yet figured out how to do this in Adobe yet... Tai (very kindly!) gave me Photoshop, but I realized, post facto, that I have no idea how to use Photoshop because I've always used Paint Shop... -__-;;

Hey, Malloreigh's back! And the button she's using to link me is supah-pretty.

Okay, I'm really going to read Oedipus now. -_-

Time for a bit of social blogging before I force myself to read Oedipus at Colonus (not that I don't think Sophocles is good reading, because he is, I just hate absolutely having to read something -_-).

I'm afraid to even visit Ragnarok's website because I fear that it will frighten my senile, fragile computer into crashing. Perhaps I will go look around on Bryan's mighty computer when he is not here (actually, he's not here right now, but like I just said I have to read -_-). Cause if Vera and Tengu like it, it must be good. :3

I almost always write everything out by hand first, as well. I have a drawerful of full notebooks and notebooks waiting to be filled (cheap, 70 page things). I really love my notebooks. :3 I fill the margins with doodles (of the characters I'm writing about and the expressions I'm picturing them with) and diagrams (like of rooms and areas^^;).

A long time ago, when I was twelve and just getting into writing (wrote some horrible stuff back then. Fortunately the only people who ever saw any of it are those in the JFW. I hope that if I ever achieve any sort of fame they don't use those stories to blackmail me, because they are REALLY bad XD), I would write strictly on the computer, more out of laziness than anything else. Ms. Amanda Flowers (the originator of the 'soulbond' term and a person who wrote me several very harsh [but useful and deserved!] criticisms) suggested writing stories in a notebook first and then typing them as a way to help the editing process, and that is the main reason why I do it. The pieces that people see are usually third drafts. First, I write everything by hand; that's the rough draft in which I just write down whatever crack filled nonsense comes to mind. Then, when I type it, I edit the stuff that sounds really horrible, rearrange words, and sometimes add entire scenes. Then, when I place it into a composer file, I edit it a third time, fixing mechanical errors and doing more rearranging/deleting of things that still sound stupid. Then I upload it and show it to a few people, some of whom catch errors I've missed. ^^; Then I link it and let it stay like that for years until I decide the whole thing sucks and start editing it all over again(like I'm doing with the beginnings of Claris and Clarity. ^_^;).

So anyway, yeah. Notebook writing is helpful for me when it comes to editing. Plus it enables me to get work done in school (actually I think that if I wrote strictly on the computer I'd never get writing done at all); I have the rough draft available at all times; and I can make little doodles and profiles and whatever else I like/need right there. Notebooks r00l.
