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!!!
"You have to be realistic about terrorism. Certain groups of people, certain groups, Muslim fundamentalists, Christian fundamentalists, Jewish fundamentalists, and just plain guys from Montana, are going to continue to make life in this country very interesting for a long, long time."

Well, hope you enjoy your visit and sayonara for now! ^_^
Got my Japanese exam back today. I would've bombed it... but, so did everyone else... so the teacher graded on a curve, and I ended up with a C... I think. XDDD
See, I was ready for this test. I knew all the grammar, all the kanji, EVERYTHING.
She decided to make an entire part of the test something we hadn't done in over a year... which is where we all failed. =_=;
As for Astronomy... I need to do that homework still... ^_^;;
The exam is on Thursday. But, I'm not worried, I'm doing well in it.
Oh, we watched American Beauty in Media Arts today.
Now, I know where all those jokes on Family Guy come from. XDDD And, since I knew the FG parodies first, whenever the parts came up on the movie (some of them rather serious) I sat in back, laughing.
Relax, I wasn't the only one laughing. Tons of other people were as well. XD
Oh, and here's the tragic news.
I was at the b/f's after school yesterday and his grampa came in crying. Now, this alarmed both of us because, I've never seen this man cry. And, the b/f had only seen him cry once before in his life: when his gramma (grampa's wife) died about 9 years ago. He came into the room crying and saying, "I might not make it to the end of the day."
This scared my b/f, who called his mom who came home to drive his grandpa to the hospital.
Now, gramps is in the hospital, hooked to oxygen. They say he might have pneumonia, which is rough. He was already working at only 1/2 capacity of his lungs, and he just keeps smoking cigarettes everyday. So, this is hard for him.
I'm afraid I might see my boyfriend cry for the first time soon...
But, I've heard that grampa is making a recovery and should be back home within the week, as long as he keeps it up.
Wish us the best, guys~!
Also, for those of you who may have missed my update yesterday, I updated my manga on SmackJeeves. Feel free to read... or send me a threatening PM to shut up about it. XDDD I'm afraid I'm annoying you.
PS: if you send me a note about it, I'll nonchalantly discard it anyway. ;P
I updated my manga~! It's just one new page, but it introduces Dustin, and he's one of my fave characters. I actually based him off of myself (when I'm in certain moods, you'll find). :3
Today, my b/f and I were watching Star Trek: The Next Generation and, I dunno if it was because I was watching the show, or what, but I had a random bit of insight today.
He looks over at me and says, "Is there anything you need?" I replied with, "Well, no... I'm fine. Why do you always ask that?" 'cause, he usually does ask that frequently. But, he answered with, "Well, I loves you and I always want joo to be comfortable and always happy."
And, then a thought hit me: if I was always happy, I would never know sadness. And, in never knowing sadness, I would never truly know happiness.
So... though I'd never want my boyfriend to cause me sadness, I'd never want to not know that emotion. I want to be happy with him, and when I AM sad, I know I can go to him to get happy again.
In the end, for those of you who read this, the next time someone asks you if you need anything, don't think it's selfish to say, "No, I'm fine," If you need a glass of water, just say so. They just want you to be happy in that moment. Don't take it for granted.
Well, I have an exam to study for on Monday, so... when I'm not working on that, I'll be working on my last two pages for the manga I want to get done and have started on SJ... thanks to those of you who visited~! It brightened my day~! ^_^ Hugs to you all~! OH! I'm also gonna get a haircut tomorrow. Probably go back to more of an older hairdo of mine. My bangs have gotten long... I wanna cut 'em short again. Get my hair done shorter as well... it's gotten longer than it used to be (yay, it curls! I hate my naturally curly hair =_=;).
Okies, off for the night. Thanks for reading! *hugs*

On the front page, there's only ONE featured fan comic, but once you browse the category, it's clear that there are MORE than that?
What about everyone else?!
How come just the one person gets to be there?! WHY?!
Maybe it's a glitch?
In any case, the first 4 pages of my manga are toned! Now, I just need to finish the title page and cover and you guys can enjoy the first bit~! :D
How many of you are anxious to see it? ^_^ I'd like to know.
Sneak a peek at the site HERE (nothing's up, other than a story summary). SJ members, fav it! I needs fans! XD
Should have something up soon. With luck, this weekend. :3 I'll start the cover page tonight, me thinks. I'm asking the b/f for advice on something, and when that's finalized, I'll be back to work. B3
Thanks, guys, for your support and thanks for reading! ^o^

PS: Awesome vid shown in Astronomy class yesterday for your enjoyment. XD We've been shown quite a few vids of Carl Sagan as well, and I'm slowly turning into a fan of the way he speaks and uses his hands to emphasis words... XD
