Woot, just one more week of school to go! That is, ...

Hey hey! By now, I'm sure everyone has gotten used to me disappearing for a looong time, then reappearing with a huge post! This time it might be shorter, I don't have that much to say and I don't feel like writing a long post either.
First, I might change my theme soon, as soon as I feel motivated enough to work on new images. Lately I've been annoyed at the very sight of the Photoshop icon on my desktop DX What else can I possibly do, I'm bored of vectoring and there's no other way I can wall all those black & white manga scans I want! *frustrated* Oh, and I should also be doing a creepy Halloween wallpaper for a contest and I've never been good at creating creepy walls! >_< The "in-your-face" things are just not my style, and splashing everything with blood brushes looks awfully low-effort work to me. Plus, I rely more on atmosphere than on blood and other gory effects.

In other news, school's been taking up a lot of my time these last few days. We've been arguing about some presentation themes in Romanian class, since all are quite difficult to do and require some degree of research and time. To lay out the facts, the first theme is "Romans and Dacians" (spell check can screw itself, "Dacians" is a word, according to Wikipedia). Each major theme (like this one) has a few sub-themes, which are more like a guidance. There were 8 on this theme and the teacher divided them among us (we picked what we wanted). On Tuesday, me and the 3 other girls from my group went to the library to do some research, since we got the "comparison between the foundation myths and legends of the European peoples". We got some info from the books we found at the library, all that's left is to arrange and present it (in front of the class, naturally). I think I'll be doing the speaking part, I've done it in the debate last year so it's not a problem ^^" I'm a natural born stubborn person :3
Anyway, the next theme will be about religion and its role in society, during the Middle Ages, with 6 sub-themes. Since they could be grouped 2 by 2, I proposed for each group (3 groups picked that theme, including mine) to take 2 sub-themes and speak about those -it was accepted, and now we don't have that much work to do! Which is good, considering the fact that if all of us wrote about the entire theme, it was highly possible to have the same facts (and repeating oneself isn't too pleasant). I'm looking forward to this theme, my group chose 2 sub-themes which were about the link between religion and politics, which is a delicate but interesting topic :)
More avvies <3 *random moment*
That's about it for now. I'd better get going, I have a lot of projects to finish (yes, I've decided to sacrifice myself on the altar of the almighty god Photoshop. I have no life! DX) A huge thank you (and a free cookie :3) to everyone who comments on my posts! *hugs* Hope you are doing great!
P.S. I <3 my new avatar :3

Hiya everyone! *hugs* Thank you for the comments on my last post! ^^ I don't mean to sound rude or anything ('cause it seems like each post's first paragraph is dedicated to coming up with a reason for not commenting!), but I won't be able to reply to comments for a while. Every time I access my comments page, it shows a "database error" message! Has anyone else had this problem? I PM'ed Adam about it but haven't got a reply yet... I hope he's reasonable and that PM'ing him was the right thing to do. Some admins yell at people for signaling errors -__-"
Last week wasn't too bad, if I think about it. On Friday we had 2 consecutive classes of Maths, but the teacher didn't come so one classmate phoned the teacher of Romanian L&L to allow us to leave (since we had 2 classes with her afterwards). When she answered the phone, he began speaking politely and asked if you could leave, then said "Oh, sorry!" and hung up. Turns out he phoned our 9th grade teacher instead! She stopped teaching in this high school when we were in the 10th grade and thought it was a prank call! XD We did manage to talk to the "real" teacher and she allowed us to leave, so we went home 4 hours sooner than usual ^_^
I think I mentioned it in the second post: this week we were supposed to start learning web design, with our head teacher (who also teaches Informatics or however it's called -you get the point). Since it's her, of course we did matrices (which aren't too difficult but boring) and no web design >_<" And I want to learn it so badly! I'm happy I picked up the basics along the way, but I'd still like to know it well. Maybe I'll also write some articles as I learn/understand it XD
Here's an image I drew a few weeks ago ^^ I'm planning to use this one and a few more I've yet to draw in an article about forums, that I've yet to write ^^" It's pretty obvious, so I don't think it needs explaining! The article will have the link to the higher quality pic too ^^ Or I'll upload it as a fan art, I'll see later.
My head hurts ;_; I'd better hurry up, it's already 11 p.m. and I want to watch TV XD Isn't it funny how kids want to stay up late, even though they have nothing to do? Then they realize it's not that great to have to go to bed late, once they grow up.
Art-wise, I'm working on more vectors at the moment; however, I'll post only the link to the Yuuki (Vampire Knight) one, since I'm too lazy to take screenshots of all of them ^^" It's another vexel, like the Sailor Neptune one from before. A group from MT also announced a Halloween contest and the entry has to be a dark wallie, so I'll be working on an original one. Luckily, I've already got a concept in mind; unluckily, it never ends up how I imagined it -_-" Let's hope it ends up reasonable, at least!
Oh, more avvies 
An extensive tutorial on how to make these is on the way! ^^
(Kaleido Star, Kamichu!, Vampire Knight, Sailor Moon)
And to end the post, I had a quiz accepted <3 I submitted it a few days and was beginning to think it was rejected, telling myself it takes longer to be approved just to feel better T_T But it was approved yesterday! <3 If you comment on it, I'm sorry for not reading it at the moment, the darn bug's in my way ;_; Anyway, here it is: What Kaleido Star Girl Are You?
Thank you so much for reading my posts, visiting me and commenting on my stuff <3 Somehow I feel like I don't deserve all this T_T *hugs everyone* I have some gifts in the making, so stay tuned 
Hopefully, I'll get them done by Christmas lol XD Bye bye and hope you have a great weekend~! *runs off*
Yaaaay, I'm back~! I missed everyone so much! A big thank you to everyone who left a comment -and you also get a cookie :3-, I love you all! T_T *hugs everyone*
Yeah, I'm lazy right now, so I'll probably make a *real* post tomorrow or the day after that. I'd also like to apologize if I don't get round to seeing works you submitted recently, when I checked the notifications there were a lot and I don't know if I dealt with all of them ._. It's not because I don't want to visit!
(click on the image to go to the wallpaper page)
And some new goodies on the site! I put up a section for Naru Nanao artbook scans, so you can check them out if you wish :) They're all high-res.
As for other projects, I'm working on a lot of wallpapers. I've abandoned some because I simply don't have any ideas for continuing them... If anyone can lend their opinion, please do so. Any help is welcome ^_^ Oh, and if you want to continue some of these walls (the starred ones), ask me and I'll e-mail you the .PSD file (I'm not joking).
1. Akuma na Eros wallpaper - I'm not really stuck on this one because I don't have any ideas, it's because I'm lazy and I'm sick of looking at it XP The background is done, I don't feel like opening the .PSD in Photoshop and turning the group of layers on XD
2. Kaleido Star wallie featuring Anna* - decided to work on this because Anna is an underrated character. Don't feel like continuing the wall. BTW, Anna's fully vectored.
3. Kaleido Star wallie featuring Layla - I have big plans for this one, so this is mine :3 One thing: it'll be red :D
4. Kaleido Star wallie featuring Layla - Also big plans for this one. It's a dual screen one, and I just have to gather the courage to start painting trees again -_- I really don't want to drop this one.
5. Original wallie* - Turned out nothing like I wanted -_-" I don't like the wings and I feel like something's missing, but I don't know what...
6. Sailor Mercury wallie* - I don't have any ideas left for this one, and I can't even bear to look at it -_-
7. Sailor Senshi in toy store wallie - A difficult one. Maybe that's why I keep overlooking it :D I'm going to work more on this...someday ^_^"
8. Sailor Venus wallie - I'm actually happy with how this one is turning out. The background's done but I'm too lazy to make it visible XD After making some modifications to the scan (changed clothes and hair -the hair was "static"), I have some ideas for it... It'll be celestial.
9. Trigun wallie featuring Wolfwood - OK, so I had an idea when I extracted Wolfwood, but now I'm stumped. And just ignore the clouds, I'll make them less crappy if I can ^_^"
And just because I remember how annoying it is to look for something until your eyes bleed in front of the screen, here are the OP and ED of Vampire Knight:
OP: ON/OFF - Futatsu no Kodou to Akai Tsumi
ED: Wakeshima Kanon - Still Doll
I'm currently obsessed with the OP, It's one of the est I've heard!
Poll: Do you want a post with OP's and ED's of anime series? Feel free to request one and I'll try to find it for you ^_^
Well this ended up being longer than I imagined O_o I hope it wasn't too long or boring
