Yesterday was technically my date of birth and I was basically working most of the day so I didn't really get to have too much fun. But it was nice hearing from friends and such. I thank them alot for their kind words. Isn't too much to say as I'm not too crazy about the birthday concept, if you had seen what last years was like. XDDDD I just like having fun and am glad some of my friends and family can be there.

No one outside of people I know has complained about me not updating at all. XDDDDDDD I guess I should scrounge up something neh?

Two friends, Spuff and angeltrin, actualy taught me, in some way shape or form, how to actually swim. I can't swim very fast nor far, but they say it'll come with time. Of course that day your resident flightless dragon had to go nuts and try to 'swim' like a maniac most of the time. One wonders how I didn't nod off in the middle of the day after that. Too many firecrackers? And despite me being a coward for the first half an hour or so, at least I managed to learn neh?
Seriously though, it's really fun when you get down to it, though going down in the water is hard. It seems like your head, which is the heavist thing on your body, magically turns into a bouy. I dont' get the logic in that, I guess it means we are all airheads? Of course I still can't float despite that, so going about and not feeling the bottom of the pool when needed is kinda bad... ^^''''

I don't really like to update on DA much cause not too many things give me cause or reason to. It would be nice to hear from people sometimes, since I actually do like to chat about random things. It's fun to hear from others and their ideas most of the time.
I am just a wierdo rambling on and on and on. Case in point I tend to make stupid journals when I sporadically appear. XD

I have to make a journal or something about random thoughts or art, or a designers Morgue. I... don't have much patience for journals, nor do I have too much of a good idea for that morgue. Hopefully I can just ramble my way through and hope it's more than decent. Pretty much what my art has been like, just rambling about and doodling and suddenly getting better after a long period of no results. (Most of the time anyway.) Hence why I tend to not draw too many crazy things lately. T-T
I wish animations could be considered part of a portfolio, that would be cool. But I don't have the resources to learn to do it really, all that I know comes from reading like a maniac. I have tried, but it's hard for begginers to try without a lightbox to aid them. So I highly doubt they'll be good enough for when the portfolio is due. For now it's time to work with... *Shudder*... Acrylics. I like Colored pencil and watercolor more cause you see what you did before. Acrylic loves to cover everything up.

Eh well you might catch me on the Dragon Heroes Webcomic forums sometime soon, dunno. I still am asking people to try and read it, not commanding them. The story is unfolding into its second chapter so hopefully it'll continue and gain more recognition.

See you all... Er... Read from you all!

Oh and Klonoa games are awesome. GET THEM IF YOU SEE THEM!

Lately alot of wierd things have been happening, from a friends deppression, to a kind of closed in existence. I'm alot more free than I was a few weeks ago, but it's still all so wierd. I barely even know the town I have lived in for the past.. 4/5 years? It's so wierd, I still remember most of my old hometown subconsiously, but I don't really know this place at all. And in my old hometown I was smaller so I wouldn't go out much either. The whole situation makes me feel pretty numb, not knowing much about this towns strange streets.
I wonder how does a person understand another? It's something that pervades my thoughts quite often, whether it be for a story of for real life. I feel as if I can't understand a person at all and I feel detatched from it all. Even when my friends are angry or depressed I usually feel nothing, and that worries me the most. Probably cause feeling like a child at my age probably isn't a good idea to handle life. Maybe it is impossible to understand a person, but trying to is what makes us 'human.' Yet no matter how hard I try it never seems to really be of any use.

Aside from those rambles things are ok. I still have yet to finish my lightbox, but this week I'm getting the last component to it. Then come hell or high water I WILL get it finished, even if I have to be the most annoying idiot in the world to do so.
After that I will try and get a cheap camera or something to take photos of individual frames instead of scanning them all into my compy. Now that would be a sure fire nightmare.

Pecaul thanks you for reading! =3

Wow I felt like we had to build Noah's Ark last week, so much rain! Everything wooshed into a green hue faster than the Sea of Corruption in the Nausicaa manga. I actually kind of like the rain, cept for the thunder and muddy paths. The thunder because I don't like the thought of being laft withought light; the mud because it is hard to walk through, dirty isn't too bad. I went walking around on one such rainy day and marvelled at what little people there were outside. I dun get out much so it was fun to just go around and do what I wanted to.

Well I am trying to build a lightbox, though it's going to be rather... lacking. I really don't like the design much, cause it hardly even slants, but it's too late to change now... A lightbox helps a little with hand draw animation, since I find computer animation to be imprecise and lacking. Flash isn't too great, I wanna try Toonboom animate or something similar.

I still suggest you guys to read the Dragon Heroes webcomic and vote for it... Though i guess not many people listen to me neh? It's a well drawn and silly tale so far, though hints at something much more.

Kinda wierd how lately it's been snowing so much where I live. So many years have gone by with hardly a flutter of this white stuff. I regret not ever being able to go outside when it's newly fallen to just sink in the quiet atmosphere.

Meh anyway how is your New Year? Great? Horrible? Me I still dunno what to think, being a person who lives the moment instead of looking back or forward. Heh so the though of thinking about the new year never seems to elict a response.
I dunno what else to write really. Just rambling on as usual.

I still suggest people to try and read Dragon Heroes since it is starting to get really interesting. It's about an orphan named Mirrage who lives with his spider friend Zero. They basically get into lots of trole before the story progresses.
