   Alphonse Secret.... he's actually....a...
Last night I was catching up on all the FMA that I've been missing out on since I haven't been able to see any of the new season on Cartoon network... My brother visited for a short bit this last weekend and brought all his old fan subbed anime with him ^___^ so finally I'm caught up... it was so nice to finally see some FMA that I haven't seen 20 thousand times over... even if it IS in Japanese (I prefer Vic...) So I finally made it to episode 44 last night around midnight... heh heh, sometimes the oddest things amuse me so... I won't go into details but let's just say Al ends up falling into a river (remember I'm the one who played the first game and was irritated because I could have AL take a flying leap into the water...) However.. this time I freaked out (cause I know now WHY Al can't go into the water...) just as I was about to start freaking out (I get emotional late at night...) Al comes leaping out of the water... and the only thought that went through my head was..




OH! LOOK A FLIPPIN' DOLPHINE!!!!

I laughed so hard I swear I almost snorted Dr. Pepper right out my nose... and I proceeded to laugh for 15 minutes... until my mom thought I was having an asthma attack... and all I could say was "flippin d..dolphin" before I went back into hysterical fits of giggles... Moral of this story? Don't watch "Finding Nemo" (that's where I got the flippin dolphin thing) and then Episode 44 of FMA late at night... it hurts... especially if your easily amused..

uuum...
Well.. I'm feeling a little bit better now... sorry to those I suddenly freaked out with my last post... I wasn't like horribly angry or upset with anyone. I just felt like I wanted to crawl into a little dark hole and hide for a month or two.. like an ol' bear. So thank you Zero, Lostchild, and thelostsindar for your comments ^_^ made me feel better! I just let work and finals get the best of me...

anyhoo...not much has been happening, I'm finally done with class for this semester, so there's some of the stress now gone... now I just have to figure out what I'm going to do after christmas break... I don't know if I should just work... and only take maybe my dance class.. or if I should go for a full load again >.< I really do ask for the stress don't I... I should take English... I have to take English 200 before I can start taking creative writing. I've always wanted to take a creative writing class, I feel like the structure of a class could force me into punching out some short stories that I might be able to send to various places.
I must admit, Fan fiction has reminded me how much I love to write. For my senior project in an english class (during high school) I had started writing this novel. (fantasy/sci-fi) But I lost hope when my first computer fried and I lost all but three of my thirty chapters. I didn't write again until I started writing my fan fics... which, by the way, is going rahter slow at the moment... I'll explain later... So anyway.. I just want to take a writing class so I can get back to writing stories with my own characters again ^___^ I miss that.. but I don't have the 'oomph' to do it.

Yes... I have hit a block in my latest FMA fanfic... the Envy 1/2 one... Ed is hiding in a closet and he won't come out >.< *sigh*I'm two chapters from the end I'm stuck! I can see the ending in my head... and I've got a great lead up so far... but I just need that little something to get Ed out of hiding and both he and Envy need to end up in Mustang's office... where I can't finish the story with payback to Roy.
I think I know what my problem is... I usaully write funny slap-stic stuff. But I've been watching Kino so much that I'm wanting to write a serious Kino fic... plus it's kinda hard for me to be funny when I feel like... well like I do because of work... I just have to find a way to get back in touch with my inner clown :P eh oh well.

Well I think I'll go for now... see if I can find some good pics from "Emma"... I'll tell you about this new anime in a little while... after I do some searching.

tis the season...
DUDE! everyone is so mean here lately (where I am don't know about else where) I don't know if it's just the times or if a really huge MEAN bug has bitten a bunch of people around me... oh well, whatever.

how is everyone doing? Hopefully good... I don't mean to sound like a hate christmas, I was just making an observation. I'm actually looking forward to it, I get a few days off and both my brothers and my sister-in-law are coming at the same time!!! I haven't gotten to see all of them together in SO long! (I've told you about thte triplets right? hee hee) I hope the trip goes ok for my sister... that's got to be hard to drive so far when your expecting triplets in a few months >.< yeow.

anyhoo... let's see, I've been working on some more art.. I did a rather silly pic of the clone boys from FF:AC I think I might post the line art tog et an idea of what people think. It's horribly silly though. I drew them in casual clothes and they're playing a PS2... Loz apparently lost and slapped Kadaj in the back of the head for beating him in a stupid game... (see weird... but I love i, you'll have to see it.)

Well.. I've got to go and finish my Kino art... it's calling to me. I must go.
Later everyone!

The world is not beautiful; and that, in a way, lends it a sort of beauty.
I finally got to see the first disc of "Kino's Journey", it's wonderful! when I first saw pictures of kino I thought it would remind me of King of Bandit Jing... but this isn't so silly. Sure enough it has humor in it, but it's a very subtle, psychological, kind of humor. It has such wonderful plots, and such beautiful animation. As soon as I saw it I wanted to read the books. It's definitely one of those anime that makes you have to stop and think about what you just saw. Actually the first episode really startled me, at first I thought "oh, no... slow.. boring... what was I thinking..." and then PLOT TWIST!!! I loved it! every episode is a stand alone story and every time the end has a twist like you wouldn't believe. (I can only compare it to Twilight Zone... that's the closest thing.)
Ah, and I found out (and it's rather obvious once you watch it) Kino is a girl.. who dresses like a guy. How anyone on-line could mistake her for a boy (after seeing the series, I mean) is beyond me. And no, no... she has good reason for this. She's a traveler, going from country to country, and her motorroid, Hermes, is her only companion. They stay only three days in each place. Just long enough to get a feel for what the people are like, and then they move on, no matter what. (Now if you were a girl traveling alone.. Hermes doesn't count.. he's a motorcycle that talks... wouldn't you rather people think you were a boy...)
I just can't begin to tell you how much I love this series, however, do keep in mind that I am very found of things that force you to stop and think... people who only like mecha, action, slap-stic humor, deep romance and all that stuff may not like this series. Kino doesn't have a lot of action (she certainly packs some artillery.. but she only fights to defend herself... and that last only for a moment) it doesn't have much as far as romance (from what I've seen so far there's just the slightest hint at someone she likes... and that's it) and the closest thing you have to a mech is Hermes.. and all he does is talk and butcher quotes... but it's still wonderful... I am so going to buy this series and anything else they may release (I hope the books come out!!! I WANT THEM!!!) ok.. I've gone on long enough on this.. I better stop. (as hard as it is to do so...) but I must leave this with a pic!!! My fav pic of Kino and Hermes.

uuuuuh....
well... I don't really know what to talk about tonight. *looks at watch* in fact I really should be sleeping... since I have to work in the morning. Bah! that's what coffee is for.
I've been trying to do some more art work... can't seem to get anything out though. I think I hit my block again (and rightfully so... Kenshin, Envy, Roy, and Al were like too good to be true.) I did a little sketch of Envy... he's in a dress and Lust is yelling at him for getting into her closet... not sure if I should post it or not, it's kinda silly (no more so than my fruits basket ones...)

I just discovered some new anime too.. I'm not sure what it is, but judging from the art it might be a little bit like Jing... has anyone ever heard of "Kino's Journey"? it looks cute... I'm going to rent it and see if it's any good. I had the chance to buy it (the entire series) for like $20 and passed it up... -_- I know that's goofy, but I'm a little put off when I can't tell if the main character is a guy or a girl (and nobody will tell me) you know how I reacted to envy at first... that was freaky (but now I like him 0.o I don't know why!!!!) anyway.. I heard it was a popular series of books that they turned into an anime.. I hope it's good.
and on that note, I must go to bed... try to anyway... went to take my brother back to the airport and then came strait home and slept all day... (this is what happens when you adopt the sleeping habits of bats..)

Lookie there!!!
I did an new animation!! Now Hatori isn't alone anymore!!! He's got mmy little Roy with the flaming wings to keep him company... too bad chibi Roy is too busy thinking about all the times he's tormented Ed.. and then laughing about it... hee hee, next I'll do a chibi Ed... so Roy can really have someone to call short! nyah hah hah...

I spent the entire class playing with this little Roy.. I drew him like you would one of those FKiss dolls... body, then clothes, then add-ons like.. his eyepatch sun glasses wings etc... that way I can change him around.. like twisted little paperdoll. Hmmm I think a mini skirt will be next... heh heh.. no I'm not THAT mean... I wouldn't do that to Roy... Ed maybe.. but not Roy... I'm also going to use this little Roy in another one of my odd chibi in the photo pics.. like my Ed one...hmmm.. what else can I ramble about.. hmm hmm hmm.... heh! can't think of anything.. so I shall leave you now and come back later to torment you all... but first...
ROY IN HIS BOXERS!!!

I am now the queen of BAD puns.. hot... heh heh... flame alchemist.. heh heh... *sigh*

Taisa-sama!!
I've always wanted to write that... :P

But alas I write all my FMA fics strictly in English... I... can't... stand... that! when Al says Nii-san... ARGH HE SOUNDS LIKE A WOMAN!!!! AND SO DOES ED!!!Sorry to those who like the Japanese version.. but it just doesn't sound right to me.. I'm a fan of the English version (which is odd 'cause I usaully only watch anime subbed...)

anyhoo.. what brought that on was my last trip to the mall... I managed to get my hands on a little box... with an FMA figure in it... I squealed! I didn't care who it was in there I wanted it... it turned out to be this UBER cute little Roy that strangley looks like he's checking to see if he remembered deoderant ^_^ nyah hah ha
so now I offically have...four Roys... teo figures a tiny UFO doll and a key chain... now all I need is that UFO of Eypatch Roy and I'm set for life... *sigh* must have Roy stuffie... must have him!!!
And on that note.. I think I'll go search for more Roy stuff... pics, fics, oddball stuffs and the like... if it's Roy I want it :P and now I have just showed you I'm a rabid fan...


btw, I finally did a new pic of Roy... he's sleeping!!! and that's actually rather hard for me... people sleeping... until next time!

i'm so tired!!
I don't want the week end to end!!! I feel like I haven't slept in days (I have, I just feel like I haven't). We've reached that part of working retail that makes you just want to pull your hair out and scream from the mountain tops... Christmas season at a craft store really bites. Oh well... on a happier note! My muse is blessing me with a lot of art this last couple of days... mostly humor... but a little bit of serious stuff. hmmm... I'm having trouble with this pic of Roy though... I wanted to practice drawing someone sleeping. (I'm horrible at that... it's my artistisc downfall, I'm afraid.) He's bent over his desk and snoozing away on his paper work (instead of doing it... like a good Colonel should) and black Hayate is getting ready to lick him... and now I'm stuck... That's the image I see in my head... I actually have his face and hands on paper... and the start of Black Hayate. But I'm getting freaked out over the proportions and stuff like that. I wish I could find pics of people snoozing... but I'm not that brave >.< I'm sorry.. I just can't go looking. You know what kind of freaky stuff you would come up with.. eeew! oh well... I'll just suffer in peace then, I hope I can pull this off.

Well... let's see... nothing else new for now. If I think of something I'll post again. So, till then!
