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

Ok, first of all, I have exciting news!! I got on theO and saw that theO's official world had been updated, so I checked it. It was the Caption Battle update. I was reading through the announcement of last week's winners, and I got to the first-place spot, and lo and behold, my screenname was there in bold black letters!! I can't believe my caption won first place!! I've NEVER won a caption battle the entire time I've been on here!! Not even third place!! And the caption I used for last week was just off the top of my head!! I was so excited I took a screen-cap...
I have an update on my Ranma 1/2 costume. Daku and I finally went to the seamstress today to deliver the fabric and patterns, and explain to her how we wanted it done. I hope we got her enough fabric...She's going to see if she can find us some toggles for the front of the shirt.
I'm still sick, but I think it's getting better. I'm not as congested as I was yesterday. And when we went to the seamstress, we stopped by Daku's house, and he got me some Mucinex DM. I hope this clears up by Friday. I don't feel like driving 3 hours with a cough and a runny nose.
Oh, that's right! You don't know yet! Friday is the start of Spring Break. I'm going home. Luckily, I know about the wireless connection in my room, so I won't have to be on a short hiatus. Mantha's riding home with me. That'll be good, because we need some Mantha-Excel time. And while I'm home, I'm gonna get in some Kytten-Excel time. She says I'll have to come see her new apartment. And maybe we'll get to go to Memphopolis...No, that's not the town's real name, but I'm not letting you people know where I live! There are creepy stalker-rapists on the interwebz...I know, because I met a few on Yahoo Games...Thus, I no longer play online pool...Seriously, this guy kept asking me stuff like what I looked like and what I was wearing and where I lived and if I was hot...I promptly left the game...

So, yeah...College is a bitch. Not much is going on, except college. I've been quite the busy bee--er--dragon. So. Much. WORK!!! =__=
In other news, I finished my sculpture of Heath Ledger's Joker. I won't be posting a picture of that until it's fired and glazed. His hair was a pain in the ass...Now we get to do a relief of an animal. I'm too lazy to explain, so if you don't quite know what a relief is, please use Google.
I dunno when I'll post more plushie pics. Maybe tomorrow...
Speaking of tomorrow...I GET TO SEE MY PARENTS AND MY LITTLE BROTHER!!! They're going to tour U of A in Fayette-nam (not the actual name). My brother wants to go to college there. After they get done, me and Daku are meeting them for dinner in Ft. Smith. It's mom's birthday tomorrow. I got her a red, sparkly, heart-shaped candle and a fake red rose. I got my dad and brother these little boxes of chocolate. Daku's getting a special gift basket, made special for him by moi. It's got M&Ms, Snickers, and Twix in it; sparkly grass stuff; confetti; fake rose petals; and, best of all, special coupons I made on the computer. Celeste is getting a fake red rose and a Crayola color-it card. The rest of my friends just get the Crayola cards...
I'm hungry...
My fish was horny the other day...

Mood: ...dead tired...
Music: Funtwo "Canon Rock"
Ok, so first of all, I'm dead tired. I haven't been getting much sleep the past couple nights. Monday night, I can't give any details...It's too personal...But last night, I got into my room at 11 pm, and I went straight to bed, and then I fell asleep. And maybe an hour later, I awoke to a horrible sound. The girl who lives in the room beside me and Celeste was up making noise. I don't know what the hell she was doing, but it sounded like she had a wooden box full of rocks and she was shaking it RIGHT BY THE WALL!! I was SO pissed off. If she does it again tonight, I'm grabbing a high heel shoe, going into the hall, knocking on her door, and telling her to stop before I do physical harm...Hell, I might just throw the shoe when she opens the door! Damn...There's NO REASON why a person should be up at MIDNIGHT making so much damn NOISE!!
I've had an interesting week so far, though. Yesterday, I went to the health department with Daku to get my TB test. I have to have it to observe in the local school. I brought Daku along to distract me while the lady was sticking the needle in my arm. And he decided the thing to distract me with was convincing me to get a MENINGITIS SHOT!! I stopped the lady before she stuck me and explained to him that he CAN NOT distract me from a needle by telling me about ANOTHER needle! I'm terrified of needles...
I'm getting much better in my Figure Drawing class. I'd upload some of the work, but our models are nude...So I don't think the staff on theO would appreciate it...I dunno...I guess maybe if I put a warning up? I'll PM Someguy...
My Sculpture is going well, too. I'm making the Joker (Heath Ledger). I put his ears on today. All that's left is to give him hair! It looks just like him, too. I'll definitely upload a picture of him when I finish.
Yoga is getting interesting. We've learned the Sun Salutation, Warrior poses 1, 2, and 3, Tree pose, Rag Doll, High Plank, Low Plank, Cobra, Upward-Facing Dog, Downward-Facing Dog, as well as the meditative poses of Corpse and the one everyone knows...Indian Cross-leg! It's actually quite exhausting. Doing the Sun Salutation with High Plank, Low Plank, Cobra, Upward Dog, Downward Dog, and Rag Doll in quick succession will really help tone your ab muscles. Hopefully by the end of semester, I'll have a nice toned belly. I mean, I'm skinny, but my stomach isn't toned, so I'm not all that happy about it.
Oh! I joined fanficfion.net! My pen name is Larien Mithrandir. I don't have any fiction up yet. I just joined yesterday. Apparently, someone on there has seen my username HERE and taken it for their pen name...That pissed me off...I mean, "Mercury Dragon" is not copyrighted, but it is my original name! I've never met anyone else in the entire interwebz that goes by that alias! Damn dirty thief...
Well, I've got stuff to do...Namely homework.

Well, I'm all super excited and stuffs! Today, at exactly 3:00 pm (U.S.--Central Time Zone), I shall embark upon the epic journey of losing my con virginity! Huzzah!! I'll be going with Daku, Tobi (Celeste Belle, my roommate), Sako-nee, Se-chan (Sekai Hatsu), Jacky, and Erin! We're going to Springdale to Arkansas Anime Festival!! I'm so excited, I just can't wait!! I get to be Sasori!! I have my nails and toenails painted black, my cloak and wig are all packed up (along with the clothes I'll have to wear under the cloak), and I JUST CAN'T WAIT!!!
On a more sobering note, I found out why the last two installments of the Akatsuki Commandents have not been added to my Fan Words collection. SomeGuy says he's not allowed to publish incomplete works, and as the Commandments are written as separate chapters, he can't publish them separately. So, I'll have to write up the Tenth Commandment and then post them all together as one work. 'Tis a challenge, but I shall overcome it in the name of all that is Crack Fan-Fiction!!
Well, I have new fan art up. Yus! But really, that's about all I have to say.

I got all my homework done! Huzzah!! Well, all the papers, at any rate...I still have two paintings I need to do for Watercolor...They're not due until this Friday, Nov. 7, though. Yay! I have free time!!
Speaking of Nov. 7, that's the day we go to A2F!! Anybody on here going to A2F? If so, hunt me down. I'll be Sasori, with those black, plastic glasses that you see emo kids wear. No, I'm not an emo kid! I actually need to wear them!! Anyways, I'll be with Tobi, Deidara, Konan, Itachi, and two people in purple t-shirts with yellow designs on the back. I'd love it if I could meet a fellow Otakuite...The con is in Fayetteville, by the way...
Hm...Oh! I got another chapter up for the Akatsuki Commandments. I'm not entirely sure if I want to make a tenth chapter for it. But you readers can certainly sway that decision! If you beg me to make that tenth chapter, in which Pein will issue the commandments, I will most certainly write it! Though, it might take me a while...
Oh...My...GAWD!!! I forgot to tell you about the weirdo people!! Yeah, they're plagueing our beloved college campus. They aren't students here, but they come on campus and verbally harass us anyways. They call themselves "juggalos". They paint their faces like demented clowns. They were inspired by that band Insane Clown Posse. Well, Halloween night, we nearly had a run-in with them. Me, Daku, and Tobi were walking over to the President's house with Sako and Sekai, and the juggalos were in the Walton Fine Arts parking lot. We avoided them, luckily! Sako was cat-sitting for the Pres, and so we were invited to come watch V For Vendetta. After the movie, when we were walking back to our respective rooms, I walked over some "blood" on the sidewalk. I nearly freaked out, but Daku pointed out that it was fake. Then we saw the Walton sign, and it was smeared with fake blood. These guys are getting to be such a nuisance! Oh! And then last night, me and Daku were going to walk back to my dorm to get his pizza pan (we'd forgotten it), but we heard glass breaking and people being loud, and I got scared and ran back towards Daku's dorm. We thought it was the juggalos, but Daku couldn't peek around the corner to see because he didn't want me running back to his dorm by myself...We told Sako later on MSN Messenger, and she walked over to the parking lot of my dorm, but when she came back, she said she didn't see anyone...And the worst part is, we can't call the police!! For the police to do anything, they must catch the juggalos in action. Unfortunately, when you have juggalos in your vicinity, you don't exactly want to whip out your cell phone and call the cops...You might possibly not live to see the cops arrive...
I finally have new fan art up, too. I've finally reached a total of 101 fan art pieces! Huzzah! *does the Sunshine Dance of Happiness* Maybe I should go make more wallpapers...Or fan comics...Maybe a card or two? Yeah, those departments are quite lacking...
