Hush, Love, Don't cry,
It'll be alright,
Hold me close,
As I administer the dose,
Listen to my lullaby of lies.

FINALS WEEK SPECIAL: Fred and George Get Silly...
Mood: lazy...
Music: Metallica "Fuel"
Yeah, so me and Celeste have Finals this week...So this morning, we were walking to lunch, and we were totally being silly...So here it is...FRED AND GEORGE GET SILLY!!!
Celeste: George is gonna miss Fred this weekend...
Me: And Fred will miss George this weekend...
Celeste: No, Fred will have Daku!!
*we walk past housekeepers while giggling*
Me: You TOTALLY just said something homo-erotic!
Celeste: OMG!!!
Me: But yeah, Fred WILL miss George this weekend...
Celeste: George will miss Fred more because Fred dies...
Me: No, Fred misses George more!
Celeste: But Fred is DEAD!!
Me: No, J. K. Rowling lied...I don't die. OMG!!! I'm SO gonna ruin the last movie when we go!!
Celeste: Huh?
Me: You know, when it gets to that point, everyone will be silent, because the scene will be tense, so I'm gonna jump up right before I die and go, "J. K. Rowling LIED!! I'M RIGHT HERE!!!"
*we burst into laughter*
Celeste: You know, it would be a good thing for the actors to pull at the premiere! Have Fred's actor sit in the front row and when it gets to that point, have him stand up and shout that. Then George's actor could say, "Fred, you died?"
Me: Yeah, that would be awesome!
Celeste: I wonder how it would be for the actor to watch his twin die...On screen, you know?
Me: Dood, he'd probably cry...
Yeah...Typical Fred-and-George banter...Just so you know, Celeste and I think of ourselves as twins, and we love Fred and George, so I'm Fred, and she's George. Sometimes, though, she's Hikaru, and I'm Kaoru...It depends on our moods...But today is a Fred-and-George day...Just for free, I'll throw in some more random college quotes!
Kat: Who won World War I?
Me: YOUR MOM!!!
Kat: Dr. Walden, did you hear about that new Communist party that was formed in America recently?
Dr. Walden: No, I didn't.
Kat: Well, we're all part of it, so we can't take your Final Exam.
Me: It goes against our Communist beliefs.
Dr. Walden: Well, if you're Communists, then we're going by Stalinism, so I'm your dictator, and I say you have to take the test.
Me: No, we're the Chinese version of Communist!
Corey: Yeah!
Me: We're Communist-Fascists, and the Fuehrer says that this test goes against our religion!
Me: Fuck off!
Daku: Off? Who's off?
Me: Y0UR MOM!!!
Yeah, I'm a big fan of the "Your Mom" joke...I also have been known to say "Your Face"...
Well, that's all for now! Stay classy, Otakuites!

Well, yesterday was the last day of classes. I'm excited!! And a bit nervous...Finals start Monday at 8:00 am for me...But that's my only final for Monday...Tuesday, I have my Sculpture Critique at 1:00 pm, and then the Yoga final at 4:30 pm, I think...Wednesday, I have the Figure Drawing Critique at 10:30 am...Thursday, I have the Families and Students final at 8:00 am, and then the Theories of Human Learning final at 1:00 pm...Then I get to pack things...I've already started doing that...I took my wallscrolls down and packed them into the Black Abyss that is my large plastic trunk...I also packed most of my shoes in there, then some random things that were floating around in my drawers...I still have a LOT to pack...I dun wanna do it!! >.< I always hate packing...
Um..........I need ideas for some prints to sell at an anime convention in the Fall...I've already decided to do a couple from Naruto, Bleach, and Hellsing...I need some other series!! I might do one for Fate/Stay Night. Daku bought the complete series box set yesterday, and we've been watching it off and on...I've missed most of the episodes because I kept falling asleep, but it seems pretty cool...I might could even sell some original work...I dunno...
Okay, RANT TIME!!!
Lately, I dropped some things into a donation box for the local women's shelter. A couple of hours later, I walked back by, glanced in, and noticed that one of those items, a particularly nice leather jacket, had been taken. That pissed me off SOOOOOOO much!! The items in that box are going to help out people who are less fortunate than the students here on this campus, yet the students feel that they can take what they want from the box before the women at that shelter have a chance to receive it?! What the hell?! That's so shitty!! I used to know a lady who'd had to go into a women's shelter before she met her husband...I know how those women live. They live in fear that the people who hurt them will come back. So, they go to the closest women's shelter, taking their children and what few items they can grab and stuff into their car. They pretty much leave almost EVERYTHING behind!! Stealing donations from that box is almost like stealing from a homeless person!! So, I sent out an email on our university server, letting the campus know about it. I politely asked that the person that took the jacket please return it. They haven't...Yet...I hope they, do, though...I have noticed that the box has accumulated many more items since I sent out the email, so that's good.
Alright, rant's over...
Um...So...Yeah....OH!!! I saw the new X-Men Origins: Wolverine movie last night with Daku...Some of the effects were pretty cheesy, and some of the lines could have been better, and parts of the plot were cliche...but it kicked SO MUCH ASS!!! I didn't sit through the credits, though...But a friend told me what happened at the end of the credits...I won't spoil anything for anyone.
GO WATCH IT!!!!
NAAAAOOOOOOOOOWWWW!!!!!
I R KUMAND JOO!!!!!!!
Well, stay classy, Otakuites!

So, no time to update, really. Just wanted to say that my contest, Cure Angstemia and Emoitis, is now officially OVER!! There were so many great entries, so check them all out! I got a laugh out of them. The winners have been declared:
~In first place, we have l33t with YAY LIFE! l33t did a great job drawing the characters' emotions and fully illustrating the theme of the challenge.
~In second place, we have cookiebunbun with Sit Still! cookiebunbun did an absolutely amazing job with the lineart and the coloring, even giving the characters dialogue!
~And last but not least, in third place we have DeidaraNarutoClan with Weirdly Cheering Up! DeidaraNarutoClan illustrated the theme with such a macabre sense of humor that the piece begged for the viewer's attention.
Thanks to all the participants! While I could only declare three winners, I believe all of your entries were simply wonderful! Great job, everyone!
Well, stay classy, Otakuites!

So, I have an update for my Sophomore Review........
I PASSED!!!
I'm so excited about that one! My professors were actually impressed with my work! I'm thinking about posting a gallery specially made for the Review pieces...I don't know...
I have most of my papers and other assignments completed for my Education and History classes. I've got maybe 2 or 3 more things to do. Also, I will have a job beginning July 1st! So I think I'm just going to remain on campus for the summer. During the month of June, I'll probably just do community service to get free summer housing. When I start that job, it will be work study, so I should get free housing for that, too.
Unfortunately, I've only got two more weeks of classes, and then May 11th begins Finals Week...Ugh, the dreaded Finals!! Hm...Let's see, I know I'll have to take the Yoga final (some of which contains Sanskrit), the Theories of Human Learning final, and the World Civilization 2 final...The Families and Students in a Diverse Society final is optional, but you do have to take it if you want an A in the class, so I'll probably go ahead and be an overachiever and reach for that A...Besides, if I do poorly, it can't hurt my grade...In both Sculpture 1 and Figure Drawing 1, I will only have a final critique, so no pressure there.
The day after Finals are over, I get to move into the on-campus apartments! And then that Monday, Maymester begins. It'll be 3 whole weeks of nothing but Education classes...I'm actually excited about it because I'll be working side-by-side with an art teacher at a junior high school. I've already met her and she seems really fun!
Oh, and at Room Selection on Tuesday, Celeste (my roommate and self-proclaimed twin) and I got into the on-campus apartments! It's a big thing because they're MUCH nicer than the dorms...In the apartments, we will share a bathroom with only 2 other girls, who we both know and love! And our other neighbor will be Mantha, whom I've known and loved since 8th grade. The apartments also have a full kitchen! The dorms only have a tiny, crappy, useless one...Anyways, we also opted for the 7-meal-a-week plan. We plan to take full advantage of our culinary skills and that full kitchen...We're also going to learn to buy in bulk...I'll probably end up just finding my way to the nearest Sam's Club and signing up for a membership card. My mom's got one, so I'll talk to her about it more later.
Speaking of my mother, I don't think she's too thrilled that I want to stay here for the summer. She's always had a bit of a problem with me being independent. But I'm 20 years old, and I think it's time to continue cutting on that umbilical cord! I began the process 2 years ago when I came to this university, which is a 3-hour drive from my house...At least it's in the same state! Well, I do feel bad about not visiting my parents very often, but this is how life goes! Parents have child, child grows up and learns from parents, child moves off from parents to lead an independent life. I'm at that third and final step of being a child...Though, I still plan to visit my parents over the summer. My mom's having that "empty nest" syndrome. I'm the oldest of 2 kids. My younger (I don't say little because he's bigger than me...) brother is a Senior in high school this year. Fortunately for mom, he's planning to attend the local community college for the first 2 years, meaning he'll be living at home. Then he's transferring to a state university. I'm currently attending a private university...Anyways, yeah, mom's got the "empty nest" syndrome...But she'll be fine. She'll come to enjoy the peace and quiet...Not to mention the amount of control she'll have over the remote control! My dad's a trucker, so he's only home on weekends...
Okay, now, for a complete and utter change in topic! I'm going to an anime convention this weekend! My boyfriend, 2 of our friends, and I are all leaving tomorrow afternoon, around 2:30 or so. I'm utterly ecstatic!! My fiance and I were going to go as male and female Ranma, from "Ranma 1/2", but his wig still hasn't come in, and if it doesn't come in by tomorrow, he's going as Kakuzu, and I'm going as Sasori, both from "Naruto". One of our friends is going as himself, as he is a character all his own. Our other friend will probably borrow whichever costume I don't use, as she's relatively the same size as me.
Oh, by the way, feel free to color my latest lineart!
Well, that's it for now! Stay classy, Otakuites!

Okay, yeah, you don't REALLY have to read this, but I'd appreciate feedback...
Does your body ever tell you things? Like, you know, do you ever get weird feelings and then suddenly go, "Where the HELL did that come from?!" Yeah, I get one of those feelings quite frequently...
I WANT TO BE A MOTHER!!!
I mean, it's not such an overwhelming feeling that I tackle my fiance in true cave-woman fashion and go, "I CAN HAZ UR BAYBEEZ NAO!!! RAAWRGGGH!!!!" But I do have the feeling...It's like this: I'll be sitting down, watching tv with Daku, and suddenly, inside me, my body says, "Hey. Hey, toots. Don't you tink it's time ta get a bun in tha oven yet? Yeah, tell 'at pretty boy ovah theyah ta strip 'is clothes off and stick it in yah! Yous guys is gettin' ta that point, ya know..." Yes, it says it just like that, Brooklyn accent and EVERYTHING!!!
WE'RE NOT FINANCIALLY STABLE ENOUGH TO PROCREATE!!!
We're still in college! We've got 2 years left! We're only 20! Geez! I mean, yeah, we're engaged, but it's still kind of a huge secret, seeing as he hasn't talked to my dad yet...But he will this summer...So yeah...I'll let you know how that one goes after it happens...Anyways, we can't get married until we graduate, and even then, it'll be at LEAST 4 years before he'll be able to start his career!! He's planning on getting a PhD or an MD...Either way, he'll be Dr. Daku...Neither of us really wants a kid until we're both comfortably situated in our career paths...But my body keeps doing that to me...
Do all 20-year-old women get the urge to yield offspring? Do YOUNGER women have those urges? I saw a post card on PostSecret a few weeks back that was sent in by a woman my age who had these feelings. It shocked me to read it because I thought I was alone...Gah, I hate this!! Why won't my body and my logic assimilate?! Why must they contradict each other?!
Well, stay classy, Otakuites.
