Welcome to my endless enigma of pointless verbal ironies and useless information revolving around the existence of me, Itsumademo. Yes, I welcome you to Infinity. If you're scared, you needn't worry, I won't bite unless provoked otherwise. Now enjoy your slow downward spiral toward the very core of my innermost being, well the psychotic section anyway.

Have fun.

...who would leave a perfectly good head lying around?

Now I know I have been a naughty one by not posting sooner....but well, that's just to be expected of me really. XD

However, now that I have FINALLY gotten around to writing it, here are all the wondrous updates I have deemed you worthy to view!!

Special Bulletin: I have brought you three brand spankin' new chapters!!

There is one for Tewoeklon and two for The Catalyst! And as an added bonus, I have already started the next chapters of each, so be tremendously excited!!!

To the slightly more repetitive and not as interesting part of this journal, I not long ago put up most of the drawings from my horde. BUT I currently still have about 3 in-progress drawings in my folder, two of which are older and I really REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY need to finish already!!! Honestly I’m surprised that Avarice hasn't tried to kill me yet...0,o...makes me wonder... *looks around with paranoia* Then to add to this bundle of mine, I have two drawings that are promised to someone on Gaia and my friend, Mero. All of this not including the several that I have in my mind which wish to be free! OOHHH!!! *puts hand to forehead in dramatic position*.....I weep *turns head down*.

In other absolutely fascinating news, lately I have been working a lot for ShojoWorld, which if you remember is the site that my friend, Mero and I run which centers primarily on Shojo anime and manga, although a Shonen Corner will be added later on. The podcast is what has really been keeping me busy! And now here is some more information that I will shove down your throats in relation to that! PLEASE READ!

My friend, Mero --MerokoYui4-- and I (Itsuma) have recorded our second podcast! You can find us on iTunes by searching Sho-Rant (click on the feed that has the little picture I drew--you know the one called Sho-Rant Logo?? yeah that one --, the other one is wrong and evil and Mero is trying to delete it), or using a direct download found at: Link. It's basically all about shojo and then...well ranting..., but we have SOOOO much fun while doing it!! She should be posting this latest episode later today (9/14/09) with MUCH better quality than the last, and as an added bonus my sister and our permanently, though randomly, reaccuring guest, Kika --Inu--Yasha-- shall be there. Things are still a bit rough right now, but we will figure everything out soon enough. We hope. D: AND WE REALLY NEED NEW MICS!!

If you do happen to end up listening to our cast and like/LOVE --the latter would be preferred ^-^-- what you hear, we would hope you can take a moment of your time and vote for us on podcast alley: Link. It would be so very much appreciated!! And helpful!

School is still being school-ish...soooo not much to say there...But OH, I forgot, Homecoming is next week, so that will be enjoyable^-^

I did recently get about 6 volumes of new manga! And last night I wacked out 3 of them^-^ Really glad that I got to reading those...and yet also sad as I want more now. But I do also have several older ones that I haven't read yet and I need to, otherwise I might forget and that would be SOO SAD! ...MOURNFUL!

But anyways, my anime watching life should be interesting with the podcast now up and running and then with all this going on I still continue to have my backed up list of ones I have yet to finish...AHH what to DO!

...well I suppose that's about it actually... TOODLY ODDLIES! ^-^

DON'T BREATH THE WATER! BREATH THE AIR, NOT THE WATER!! NOT A MIXTURE OF AIR AND WATER...

So...I have not posted in a while, huh? I know you all are pissed but I was busy and lazy and well....yeah.

Here I am though! With things and stuff to tell you all!!

First, I DO have chapters on the way and in the works, I just have been a little lazy and not gotten around to putting them up. There is one completely finished chapter of Tewoeklon and two of The Catalyst, one I have back and the other is with my editor. Now you don't have to worry about those anymore, I have not died or gotten blocked or whatever, IT IS COMING!!!!! (not the end, but I wouldn’t discount that altogether either…)

Second in that department is the annoyingness of me in that I have come up with yet ANOTHER future story idea, and for you lucky yaoi fans, it is one!! Although I wish to stress for other fans of my work that it is NOT just some yaoi with sex and crap and then a little story in the back to make everything flow. This is very much another story of mine that just so happens to have main characters in a homosexual romance rather than a heterosexual one. I just wanted to stress that for those not really fond of yaoi. This will still be one of my stories and anyway, there is going to be other hetero relationships for those who are a little uncomfortable. ^-^ And then to those who ARE yaoi lovers, like me, WOOO to the SEXY! But that is a later project, so don’t get too riled up. I presently have about three or four of those now. Darn me and my AWESOME mind! (seriously, it is…all my story ideas are from DREAMS)

Since I have somewhat reluctantly taken an art class this year, it may need to be expected that some things I put up could be for my class and then also I will perhaps be a little slower in my projects. Even if I really need to finish the ones I have piled up in my folder. T.T oh I'm so bad with that...people out there want to kill me for that too, I'm sure. (one name comes to mind--*cough* Avarice *cough cough*) The only new thing I have is ONLY new because it is needed for my art class; otherwise everything is still the works I have had in there. OH I WILL FINISH THOSE THINGS IF IT KILLS ME!!!! HAHAHAHA a solemn vow I make to the interwebs! …I wonder if interwebs will eat me if I don’t?? 0.o

EDIT: I have begun putting up many of my previously in-progress drawings that are now completed ones! Only two in-progress ones left and one of those is nearly done!! ^-^

Currently in the life of me, I just got back from the big birthday celebration for the august (and my) birthday's at my grandparents house. Coming out with $58 in cash, two Amazon gift certificates (totaling $45...oh "wow" ...), a glass necklace from Venice, and an awesome sterling silver belt-looking ring. This is the best birthday year I think. My grandmother used to be AWFUL about getting me gifts that I didn't want to throw away when I got home. But OH the manga and dvds I need to buy!! ^-^ And on that birthday note of mine, it just so happens that in 5 days on September 3rd I shall be officially 18 years old and considered an adult. Even though I am far more mature in some ways than a few adults I know of... HMM HMM C.C So be relatively pleased about this, although in reality nothing really changes much at all. Tsk Tsk to people and their crazy notions.

I also just got back from my senior retreat which was Wednesday—all day and Thursday— morning to lunch...for anyone wondering where I was on those days^-^ I did have a good time and it was MUCH better than all my other high school retreats but I got back with sun burns, sore arms and upper back, and now my allergies are pissed OFF! So that is a bit irritating but what can you do? I shrug at the thoughts of what I would do but can't because it's impossible or highly illegal, ahahaha ^-^

Now I finish boring you all with these updates, and get back to watching my lovely Titanic and drinking my yummy Dr.Pepper. WOOO!!!

Now go, my darlings! Be happy and productive...and....and..................(go jump off a bridge)What?! Who said that? 0,o

P.S. title is from the awesomely hysterical Thumbtanic...for the Thumb movies are AMAZING....if you have not seen them, then you must. Do it. Do it.

Me, my homemoos, my PElol, and Pierpon are being quite insane during this trip ^-^

My darlings I have come to say that I am currently gone. Yes, my writing here comes to you from a different state as I am on vacation...you know, again. We are currently midway (or partially midway) there with a stop at my grandpa's and then all of us are leaving tomorrow morning for our final destination (or possibly another stop before then).

The MAIN reason I decided to come and post is to warn you all that there is a 30-65% chance that I won't have access to any internet where we are staying. I know, I know! Tragic! How will you all survive without me coming here...despite the fact that you don't even technically know that anyways!! GASP! So sad. *sniff* But if that be the case, then this shall become the caution and explaination for my 10 day absence.

Anyways then, to my updates! I have chapter five of Tewoeklon written and edited and revised...but I won't get it up just yet. I haven't gotten a chance to get back to The Catalyst chapter nine and I sort of want to post one of each at a time. However I do hope too soon so that I can get the chapters posted everywhere! I also STILL have many drawings to finish and get put up. About 1 complete one, 3 in-progress ones, and at least 3-4 ones up in my brain!! Two being lovely BL drawings (hehe, HEARTS them^-^), one a SasuXSaku fanart, and the other a The Catalyst fanart! Let's hope I can get these all done!!! But I'm very excited to keep moving with everything. Oh, yes and my dears I WILL be working on these drawings as much as I can during this vacation. I have already been workig on one of them just now! Praise me, PRAISE ME!

Ah I simply can't wait to get myself all caught up on my works. ^-^ So nice. I just plead that school won't impead to much upon it...and i'm not expecting it to be a big issue anyways since school is generally where I work on things.

Soooooo that's really about all there...OH my, I almost forgot, I recently hacked off my hairs and now they are just about half an inch from my shoulder! The shortest ever for me!

Okay, now i'm shutting up.

The Twilight Zone: The Lost Chapter from HELL!...or well...someting like that...0,o

OH MY FREAKIN GOSH!!!! THERE ARE SOOOO MANY LIFEGUARDS HERE!! Now I know that people are employed as lifeguards, ecpecially in an area where practically everywhere has at least one or two swim parks or water parks. BUT!! THEY ARE EVERYWHERE!!! I'm SERIOUS! You can't turn a freakin corner without seeing a pack of them walking or riding bikes, and in those stupid red shorts and white red cross t-shirts. This place is like wired to disturb it's visiting residents. I wouldn't be surprised if EVERY FREAKIN teen- young adult who lived here was a lifeguard! BECAUSE THEY ARE EVERYWHERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's alright if you don't see the perturbed insanity of this, as my sister Inu--Yasha and I do. It just means you must be in on the diabolical sceam and shall therefore be destroyed along with the rest of them. ^-^ Hahahahahaha, fear me evilness.

Alright, now that I have gotten past that land of warpe reality, I shall get to my real reason for posting! Basically, I am on vacation, typing from our condo-like hotel/lodge room at 11:47 here time and 12:47 my normal time. And, I have decided that I will post everyday and update you on the activities that we part-take in! Fun, huh? Yeah, I know......it's not... T.T But whatever, live with what you bring pon yourselves I suppose. As it's your fault for reading what I type. Which is, of course, never healthy.

Also, just wanted to say that I have chapter six of The Catalyst up! I am going to do the Blade chapter five now, and then the In-Progress drawings are moving...sort of^-^

Be prepared for tomorrow! [there may be magic! *shifty eyes* ...no really...there might be actual magic...liek poof what you see was actually an illusion, a slight of hand, a poof poof....yeah....that....well...I guess I totally ruined that for you...ok, shuting up now.]

Why are you so adamant on eating my various potted plants? They are my only friends!

TA DA! Low and behold a brand new post for you to read! So be happy. BE. HAPPY. ^-^

Sooooo here I am with news of funness.

Ok I have two chapters finished, The Catalyst chapter five has already been finished, sent, edited, and sent back to me for the revision...which I have yet to do though. Hehe. ALSO I have finally gotten around to working more on Tewoeklon chapter three and last night (technically very early this morning) I finished and sent the chapter to my editor, Mero (MerokoYui4). I'm so glad that I got back to that story, I missed it and i'm happy I was able to delve into it again^-^ Yeah, woohoo! I hope to write some more relatively soon.

EDITS: Chapter four of The Catalyst is up and ready for reading!!! I have also recieved and revised chapter three of Tewoeklon as well! HAPPYNESS! I should be getting done with chapter five of The Catalyst's edits right after this!--which I did!! ^-^ I also put up chapter four of Blade, eventhough it's discontinued I thought what the hell...OH! and I decided to put up chapter three of Tewoeklon as well! So YEAH!

In my little corner of doodles, I have not done a whole lot at all -_-. I still have a commission drawing that I need to finish for someone at my school...which is out(has been for a week now)...0,o hehe ^-^ So bad am I. Then I have a work in progress as well; otherwise all the ideas I have for drawings are still swimming around in my brain waiting for a release. Poor littles possibilities!

Oh and lucky you in the world of the true existence of me, I have decided to have my ears pierced again! I is excited. Unfortunately the place we were getting it done, no longer does cartilidge piercings, which I thought so, however their sign says otherwise...freakin sign... -_- Anyway, I was able to get the other one I wanted though. I got a third piercing on my right ear and will get a cartilidge one on my left ear, however I can;t do that know until my 18th birthday in september. The is mostly because the place my mom likes, a parlor, does not pierce or tattoo anyone under 18 years of age. Kinda annoying but yeah. I don't to much, it's only a few months. ^-^ Plus my mom knows the people there and they know her, she has three tattoos...soon a fourth once we get some more money for stuff like that. Hehe, yes my mom is seriously awesome.

WOW, don't you people feel so special and fuzzy to know that about me! Cause you should. You should. Yes, yes. Mmmhmm.

EXCITMENT THEN, HUH!? well....yeah that's really all I have to say....yup...yeah.
