Yesturday was actually a pretty good day, more or less. After class, I went over to see the new location of Texas Toyz, it's much larger and better improved as compared to their old location and also, it's in a convient spot next to Target. I found the director's cut of JTHM there, that was freaking awsome! ;D After that, decided to check out that little Toys R' Us in the mall, bought myself a Knuckles figurine. Went to Hot Topic, bought myself a shirt that I saw online and knew that I had to have it. www.hottopic.com/hottopic/Apparel/TShirts/GraphicTees/Grey-Snake-Heart-Tee-182008.jspWhat can I say, ever since I got Calavera, I'm getting more into reptiles, snakes especially, so the shirt looking very bada$$ in my opinion, I had to get it....I saw series 20 of the Living dead dolls though and unfortunately, I was a little disappointed by this set...you know, I was excited for it but in the end, I didn't find one doll of this set that I was really drawn to. Even the one doll that I did seem to like because I saw her online, nope, just wasn't feeling it from her so I'll wait til the next set or maybe until that Beetlejuice two pack, whichever comes first. With the exception of that, my day was pretty good yesturday.

English [the subject]
My English teacher is probably the most inspirational, passionate teachers I've met. He really does balance out my Social Studies teacher, who is a demanding, demotivational little twat.
Oh, and he believes that I could succeed in life. He also thinks that I could get my soon-to-be-done graphic novel published. PUBLISHED.
Sometimes I have doubts about him, since in a class of 40-something, I am DEFINITELY not the best writer. Heck, I don't even fit in as one of the top ten.
I am passionate about writing, but sometimes my problems in life distract me and I don't even think anymore as I write. At the moment I'm blanking out.
I'd like to believe that my teacher is not blind to the fact that I couldn't write to save my life, and that my self-esteem is taking a toll on my opinion on my self, again.
I wish I was more confident, thankfully I have my teacher there to support me.

I just checked my replies back to my comments on a tnbc fancomic! One of the people on my DA watch is doing a LSB comic with a fancharacter of hers and she had dated a special event that related to her character happening in 92, I had told her that was about one year before the release of TNBC in theaters in 93 and she messaged me back telling me that she was glad that somebody noticed that and that somebody was me! ;D It looks like she's planning to tie her comic into the events of TNBC which is really awsome and makes me wonder how things will turn out later on! That is so awsome, it pays to be a huge TNBC fan! Also, recieved yesturday an item I bought from Ebay, an arcade flyer of the game CarnEvil...a rare item for certain!

This week I've made a lot of new one-page comics, and 4 people liked them : D [which is good for a loner like me] I watched Atlantis recently : D Monsters Inc will show on Disney Channel on October 10! [Philippines] My digital art is improving at last Uh, what else. Oh, I hit 200 on DeviantArt! [200 page views : D] I plan to get a new shirt soon. Maybe some pants. Oh, and my Science teacher likes my idea for the investigatory project! OHYEAH. thats all for-- wait! I have one last thing: Me and my eh, "friend" don't talk anymore, so basically we split. So that means I could go back to being a happy little loner, and that I would have some motivation to study! : D

It was Customer Service week at work this past week and we celebrated by dressing up and playing games. We tickets for certain things we did and we could use them on a Chinese Auction were having. I didn't know that the table of prizes was in the back of the office all week (I'm really dumb) so I checked it out last night to spend my tickets. I was thinking it would be a bunch of stuff I'm not interested in, but they actually had the one thing I've always wanted to buy from out store! It's this really nice dog bed that cost over $100. I put all my tickets in for it and I'm crossing my fingers. I'm hoping everyone else was sane and put their tickets in for the nice home items.

In terms of original stories (typical that this sort of thing happens when on other things), finally working some kinks out. Have a good idea about how two of my protaganists meet I feel.
Of course, this will be notes not to much writing, and nothing this week- too busy!

I was doing a presentation today in a group project, I was one of the three talking about it. Apparently I did pretty well and sounded like I really knew the subject well according to both Prof and a group member! (Well given that I've been looking at it a little while, I'd hope so). Not bad especially for someone who was suffering from sleep deprivation at the time! . (Not been sleeping well laetly) Also while I went a little over on my individual thing, but it's not very serious so hopefully it will be okay. (Granted... it still counts a little that assignment). I maaay have gone overboard with the sources though (I used like ten hard literature plus a couple of websites... everyone else seemed to have like three at most in total), granted this helped with the talk since it touched on this subject a bit too. I stayed up until one though because I had to redo some things and then got up at 7 (after sleeping less than that time gap) to check english etc and trim some things. I think I did okay. (Fingers crossed). ... I'm going to bed soon. I don't care if going to bed just after 8pm means I'm a bad university student! I'm a Post-grad student! I'm allowed!

It took me awhile but I'm finally going to pull together a costume...didn't have an option when a costume I had bought for work didn't work out...I mean, can you believe that both an adult women's medium and large size costume didn't fit me! I know that I don't exercise but I can't be overweight or at least not that much overweight anyway. www.walmart.com/ip/Punk-Fairy-Adult-Costume/14497648This was the costume that I wanted to get, it's seriously a bad a$$ costume but it didn't freaking fit me! My mom told me that there was no way that it was an adult sized costume and told me that my body shape wasn't the problem with it but it still makes me wonder, my Halloween costume from last year was also an adult sized medium costume and it freaking fit me just fine....so I don't understand what was wrong with this one! misticas-haven.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d2i1nwsSeriously, do a comparison, both costumes are considered adult type costumes yet one fits me and one doesn't?! Seriously, what the hell!

That's why I don't buy costumes from Wal-Mart. It's like they only make them for very petite preteen girls to fit in. I even bought adult pajamas from Wal-Mart not to long ago. Everything fits except the leggings, which don't even fit my arm. WTF Wal-Mart? I'd say go to a costume shop, where you might have better luck.

Thanks for the advice but what I decided to do was buy a dark colored top and skirt from work and find a way to convert that into a costume, compared to buying one brand new, it's cheaper. The surprising thing is that the brand of costumes that I had bought that one from is an actual brand that sells in other stores besides Walmart so in this case, it can't be entirely the fault of the store.

I don't know if this would classify as 'things that don't' but I've spammed the sucketh thread too much so, why not here too?
This guy on Facebook has become a friend of mine over a span of a few months. He asked me one time if i like-liked him and I said no. A few days later I asked him if he like-liked me when he asked me that, and he said 'yeah, kinda' and now things are a tad awkward but still I can't believe that there would be anybody who would like me in a sense.. in that sense. I mean, I've met jerks who liked me for what I looked like and stuff like that but I haven't showed him a decent picture of me, ever. And he likes me. Maybe.. for my personality? maybe, I'm not that lame of a person?
It feels good to be liked.
What else. Oh, I stayed up all night again due to my paranoia. The bright side of that is.. I was able to watch old 60's cartoons AND Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends. On the same night. Er, day. You get the picture. It feels good to watch old cartoons, sense or no sense. For this night, I was able to watch Hanna-Barbera and Klasky-Csupo. And some of Disney's old cartoons. Oh, nostalgia <3
I also made it out of school alive, and now it's my sembreak! my beautiful, glorious sembreak! I've done weird things, like cutting a lot of hair and whatnot, but nonetheless, physical things aside, the sembreak's prett good. Technically, it's my third day of 'sembreak-ing' and I'm lovig every moment of it. Screw my occassional paranoia and streaks of depression filing in and out, this week's booked full for leisure and enjoyment.
Stuff I was able to do: >take a decent picture of myself >talk to online friends >post a lot more in the forums >draw a lot >polished nails red >trimmed my pet's hair, and some of my eyelashes. >ate ice cream cake. >ate a slice of microwave pizza. >Microwaved a pink, eggy monstrosity. >saw the quotient of x and zero. [aka egg whites, sugar, food coloring, and a lot of milk.] >combed my hair
And, I might get a hair cut, so yay! I don't like my hair long [hence the common misunderstanding of my being not straight, thanks to a rumor started in the 6th grade. i wouldn't call myself straight, haha no but let's not go there] I don't like my hair long so it's pretty much a treat to chop off my hair every once in a while. My, I hope that I could get myself some decent bangs, that would be nice..
Hmm. Oh, and chapter two of Maddie is up, so yay^^ I'm pens-and-crosses, by the way. most people don't know so yeah. And oh, Gorillaz is nice^^

Well, I think I'm finally going to be talking things over with that girl who wants to date me but both question and response was confusing before.
Wish me luck.
Like high school things were a little awkward on my end even though we talked before today on other things. Guess we just have to talk about it.
Wonder who'll broach it first?
I probably shoud.

Good luck Today I decided to go on a spending spree with most of my recent paycheck and bought myself a much needed winter jacket. I also bought a new outfit for the cold. Added up to over $100 just for a jacket and 1 outfit, but it turned out that they were having a sell too. For every $50 you got a piece of jewelry. So I got a couple new necklaces free =D I'm going to take a bit out of next weeks check (which will be a big one) for new jeans and the one after that for boots. Then I should be set for this winter.

It's funny, because I had better luck finding a costume at Wal-Mart than at every other costume shop. I even went to Hot Topic, and although their costumes were pretty elaborate, they weren't exactly budget-friendly ($60? Heck no.) I ended up finding a very well-hidden size S at Wal-Mart for $20, which I was extremely happy about. I'm "fun-sized" so I still shop in the juniors section, even though I'm a 20-something year-old. On another note, I got the highest grade on a midterm exam yesterday in my Tests and Measurements class. Words cannot describe the elation I felt last night.

I may be getting a project idea together! It's surprising the things you can come up with when talking to a supervisor. Npothing concrete yet, but possible ideas are less vague now. (Though I do have more options)
In any case it will possibly involve either amphibians or reptiles in some form (in Ireland/N.Ireland). Things aren't concrete as of yet but it seems like I might be in that area- of course the difficulty is that everyone seems to do fish, mammals, plants etc. if they divide into taxonomic groups at all so it might be difficult in some respects but I'm still getting some help in some areas.
