Hey, fellow Anime/Manga lovers! It's TheDarkAngel here! AKA Yosei! WooT!

So, here's my World Page designed especially for me. For those of you who aren't familiar with me, I'm an aspiring Manga-ka (at least in my own mind) and I enjoy many things in life, including, but not limited to: sword-fights, squirrels, lingual jokes, shiny rocks, and strawberries.

Also, I was born in Texas, but raised in Montana. No, I don't ride horses, or boil water over a campfire to heat it, and as a matter of fact, I hate Westerns! I don't have an accent (y'all) and I don't wear a ten-gallon cowboy hat with chaps. I'm a normal, everyday average citizen of America... who wishes he were somewhere else. XD I'm also agnostic, so don't come preaching to me about anything, okies? And, I won't throw you down a well, okies? Yay! Friends!!!

Ffffirst day of school.... ;n;

Took an age to get up this morning... was up at 7:10 and out the door at 7:45... drove in THICK and DENSE fog...

For Writing, class, I don't yet have the books, but I might be able to get one of them from the b/f... or two... :3 And, I'll give him my old Psychology book in return.

Speaking of which, got to see him for lunch today. Ran into him at the bookstore, looking for my course materials... he said he had break from 1 to 2, and so did I. :3
'Cept, while we were together, we seemed to be running into every other person we knew on campus. XDDD That's fine, though. They're people we both liked.
'Cept one. Saw that old bitch today... the one who used to be friends with us in high school? Cha... but, she saw us and turned around and left.

Then, she ran into my b/f later after I'd gone home (I'm done at 3, he wasn't done 'til 6) and she said she wanted to talk to me, and Angelo, and Niko... I will destroy her soon... if anyone hears about a murder on a Montana campus, expect me to be involved somehow... XDDD I KID! I KID! I SERIOUSLY KID!!! God, I'd never kill someone... but, god, I'm bitter. I don't wanna talk to her... or see her... apparently, we didn't run into her at all last year because she was studying abroad in Turkey... fuck, that leaves me SO JEALOUS! I wanna travel outside the US! NO FAIRRRR!!! I soooooo wanna go to Japaaaaaan... ;3;

So bad.

Oh, I got to skip Math on my first day! XDDDD Not really. The school messed up our schedules. All the students, including myself, showed up at the class listed, but half an hour later, our teacher still hadn't shown up. So, someone called the main office and they said the class was actually ACROSS THE CAMPUS and up TWO FLIGHTS OF STAIRS! Ffff... so, we all get an excused absence since the office is so messed up right now.

Then, I was given homework for Japanese tonight, but the Sakubun isn't up on the site she said it'd be on! D: I can't do ittttt!!! And neither can anyone else! D< So, I emailed her and am now waiting for a reply... if I don't get one tonight, I'll just write it all out on lined paper tomorrow and tell her that.

Ffff... no luck with homework and it's only the first day back...

And my knees and hips are SO SORE from going up and down staircases all day.

*huge sigh*
And that was Yosei's day back at school. :3

Thanks for reading.
~Yosei~

EDIT:
I found the sakubun... it was on an alternate site XD there's SOME homework done for now... *sigh* And it only took me about 2 hours to do... OTL

EDIT: Banner

Back to school tomorrow TT^TT

And I am so not ready...

I just don't wanna go back! This semester is gonna SUCK in the way of getting to see my b/f...
When I'm in classes, he's free, and when I'm free, he has classes! D: I'm done at 3pm everyday and he's done at either 4 or 6! 'Cept Fridays, which is when we're both done at 3, but I just put in for jobs and said I could work those nights... if I get a job, I won't have free-time for him at all! DX
I'm so scared! What if we start to drift because we don't have time for each other? .:>O<:. NUU! I won't be able to live without him! I'll get sick and die! I'll get depressed, stop eating, then die of a low blood sugar! *throws tantrum*

I suppose I could wait for an hour after classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays for him... but, when will I have time for homework?
GRAH!

Expect moody Yosei starting this week. >.<
I apologize in advance... *goes off to cry in a corner*

OMIGAWD, I MISSED ONE?!

FFFFF... how do I miss Day SEVEN? XDDDD I was looking at my journal and was like, "Hey, I never finished this..."

Day 1 - Pride. Seven great things about yourself.
Day 2 - Envy. Seven things you lack and covet.
Day 3 - Wrath. Seven things that piss you off.
Day 4 - Sloth. Seven things you neglect to do.
Day 5 - Greed. Seven worldly material desires.
Day 6 - Gluttony. Seven guilty pleasures.
Day 7 - Lust. Seven love secrets

1) I hooked up with my b/f through his sister and my best friend meeting XD
2) I can be the Uke or the Seme... ;3
3) I had my first kiss (lol, I almost typed 'kill') when I fell asleep and they snuck up on me. <_<; Good thing we'd been going out...
4) I've had two official relationships.
5) My b/f's and my first date was at the movies. We saw "Yes Man". XD
6) I'm a sucker for lovey-dovey romance. >_<
7) When the b/f wears a suit, I lose control over myself. My mind goes HAYWIRE! He's just too sexy! >_< I love a man in a suit. XD

And that is that.

Ouch, man, that really hurt...

So... I made a thread on another site asking people what they thought of my art. And, most people are saying things like, "Hey! It's really good! Keep it up!" or "it's coming along nicely. Work on this, this, and this, but you're still good."

And, I like that. I like constructive criticism. Constructive being the key word here. But, then, I got a reply saying, "Your art sucks. Your characters all look like they have down syndrome"

And, this on the eve of being named Co-Admin of a new group getting started here on TheO called Project OATH (ask FUNimation for info) a group against bullying and harassing both on and offline. Now, I wouldn't say what this person said was bullying or harassment, but... it still hurt. I mean... I know my skills are lacking, but at least I knew where to work on them BEFORE this guy came on and said that... it was a real stab at the pride I took in my work.

So, a question for my fellow TheOtaku members.
What do you guys REALLY think about my art?

I know I can't win the world's heart, but I'd like to know what others think of my skills so that I'll know where to improve in the off chance I decide to go professional one day.

And, please, be aware of what you say. My ego bruises so freakin' easily.
