   [LIFE // nostaglia setting in]

first of all, i'd like to apologize for not having been on MyO for several days. (why do i keep saying this post after post?? guess i'm not really that forgiveable...~_~;) well, some fanart i'm working on have been keeping me busy; and plus i realize i don't usually have a lot of internet time over the weekend. so gomen ne!! u_u still, i really must thank all of you for continuing to visit & leaving me posts even on days that i don't update. thanks guys!! *huggies* that's soooo nice of you & it makes me soooo happy -- even tho i don't really deserve it. ^_^; btw, thanks Gray Underpants, animegirl4ever & YokoBandit for letting me know that the alignment looks fine! ^_^; guess i stressed over nothing...hmm, maybe it was simply a case of diff resolutions on diff monitors? silly me...hehe...^///^ lately, my mind is rather occupied with getting in touch with old friends. on monday, i received in the mail a x'mas card i had sent out back in dec. on it, there's a yellow label reading: "return to sender. attempted not known. unable to forward." umm, oookay, but i'm pretty sure i've the correct name & address! 0_o; anyway, i tried to contact that person via email, but her email account seems to have been canceled. so now i'm stuck asking around for her updated contact info. =_= the strange thing is, she called me on x'mas morning for a holiday greeting & we talked for an hour or so, wouldn't she have remembered to let me know if her postal or email address changed? *sighs* darnit! i'm going to send her a (belated?) x'mas card no matter what!! nothing can stop me!! >_<; aside from that x'mas card fiasco, yesterday, i received an email from my Japanese friend who is currently studying abroad in Germany. we haven't seen each other for a year or so; and since life & academia take up so much of each of our time & energy, we've somewhat drifted apart. i've so many cool memories of our friendship tho. ^^ for example, i remember when i slept over at her place for the 1st time, we stayed up talking late into the night & dozed off on the carpet together. waking up in the next morning, we found ourselves staring at the underside of her dining table & we laughed our heads off. ^_^; you know, in manga & anime, you always see people rolling off the tatami when they're asleep, proceeding to unconsciously roll around the room. lol, apparently, it happens in real life too! ^_^ speaking of memories, here's the theme (chosen dictatorially ^_^) for feb: RuroKen's kenshin x tomoe -- one of my fave anime couples of all time! ^0^ the quote i chose for them (you can see it in the scrolling marquee up in the intro) comes from the song "four seasons." it appears in Namie Amuro's "style" album & is also the ending theme for the 3rd IY movie! currently, "four seasons" is my top fave anime song on the playlist! *hearts* in addition to the charas in IY, i think it suits kenshin pretty well too. well, hope you'll like this month's theme! i'll go catch up on (most if not all of) your sites now! ^^ the night when kenshin & tomoe first met, under a rain a blood... p.s. yup, right now, i'm working on some YGO fanart for valentine's. i still need to finish outlining & coloring them tho. hopefully, i'll have the 1st 2 pics done by this weekend *fingers crossed*...i'll let you know when i'm done! ^_^;
