Mood: 
(kinda bored) [cute little ghost smiley from Kao-Ani]
Listening to: the TV in the other room (mom's watching some show)
Doing: finishing a wallpaper (omg!)
Wow, has anyone felt like time's passing by quicker than usual? o_O That's what I felt when I saw the date of the last post. Wow... It feels like I haven't posted in...3 days? Funny thing XD
Well, I've been named a moderator recently. My job is to handle the gallery items and see that they're in the right categories, and so far I've dug through hundreds of pages of submissions (I'm at page #319) and found a few that might have categories, or can receive categories if needed. Their artist is Arina Tanemura. I browsed the Minitokyo gallery but couldn't find these under a specific category. Any kind of info is appreciated~! ^_^
Recently, I've also rediscovered my liking towards movies, since I seem to have stopped watching movies and walling/vectoring about at the same time ^^" Yesterday I went over to Nico's place and we watched 3 movies. The day before, I had a True Blood marathon (4 episodes in one day, and an episode is 57 minutes long...yeah XD) and felt sick for the rest of the day x_x
Anyway, we watched Burn After Reading first; I can't understand why people liked it so much, it seemed to me like they were dragging the film just to meet the time limit or something. I couldn't stand George Clooney's character either, he didn't really have a point to be there, aside from meeting various women. All in all, the only thing that I liked was Brad Pitt, and I was sad to see him get shot in the head and never be heard from again 
All the jokes felt kinda forced, and while I'm not a rabid fan of Brad Pitt, his parts were the most humorous in this movie ._.
Then, we watched Madagascar 2, which was just perfect! It was the second time for me, but I loved it even more than the first! I don't see myself getting tired of it 
Next came Mirrors; my only complaint would be turning the library here in Bucharest into a mall from New York (that's what they called it in the movie). But hey, it wasn't relevant to the plot, so it's just a minor thing. I saw this one twice (yesterday being the second time) and enjoyed it mostly because I had seen it months before and couldn't remember where the scary parts were, so they kinda took me by surprise >_<" I'm softening up.
Weeell, I hope I'm lucky and finish the wallpaper today and submit it, I've been working on it since May '08 XO No really, that's what the file properties say. In the meantime, I made a few stamps today, I'll probably submit them to DevART later since I've died there too; feel free to use them ^_^ Have a great week, everyone, and thank you very much for visiting~! *hugs*
(all from Madagascar 2)
P.S. I updated my other World with a tutorial, How To Extract Images (Pen Tool Method) ^_^
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
