   And finally... an update!
So I was bored today and feeling ok (though I still look like crap... dang getting sick. I think I got like 4 things in a row). Anyhoo, the point is that after taking a walk in the unseasonably nice weather, I decided to put my new art program to the test. It's Corel Painter Essentials 2 and I got it from my boyfriend GrapeRoad when he bought his tablet. I found out that it is essentially like the most recent version of Corel Painter stripped of some features. It works pretty well and does what I need of it mostly, so I'm happy. I'm still trying to figure it all out again (I had the full version about a year back as a demo).
Aaaaand, back to the point again. I colored in two older pictures, and drew another quick one of a kind of chibi-ish red-head girl. One of the pics I colored in was the DMG pic I drew a while back, and another is a picture of Ed I drew about a half year back or something. Last I checked poor Ed wasn't doing so well, so vote!!

PS. Oh yes, I checked out my greetings just to see how they were doing. That's when I found out something I thought was pretty funny... or maybe it's sad, I haven't decided. Well, the thing is, my FMA card which reads "Eat Cold, Hard Christmas Spirit" was sent 300 times. I looked into it, and it turns out it was the second most sent xmas card. The first was actually kind of nice. It just said "Merry Christmas" and was of course an Inu-Yasha card (about 80% were on the top sent). So it seems my Christmas spite was much more popular than my 3 other nice ones, hahaha. Anyhoo, yeah, just a random thought.

   Sick
Well, I'm onto week two now almost of being sick. It's starting to get really annoying. As my friend Ande always said, I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired. Oh well. Finally starting to feel better. Hopefully I should be completely better soon.
Anyway, now that I'm starting to feel better I should actually get something done. Maybe do some fanart for something. I have a new art program too. This time it's not even a demo, so I don't have to worry about it expiring or anything. Now all I need to do is get back to my scanner. Til then, perhaps I will do some art on my computer.
I have a lot of Chibi to make up for. Well, technically, if I'm ambitious, I'll be making up for the comics I have missed; if not, then I'll just be doing one for the week that I get back to school and have my scanner again. Speaking of "Chibi" it will now have a new home. Instead of being at Deviant Art, it will now be at my friends' site, Blanetwork ( at http://www.blanetwork.net/). It even has a pretty page of its own, with its own layout and everything.
Well, anyhoo, see you all later. Perhaps I will get some time to check out all your sites. Sorry I haven't been around too much. Been sick since about the day after new years. >_>

   OMG... happy 2006!
Yeah, I've been gone for a looong time. And I probably won't be back very soon because my laptop was kind of put out of commission. Yeah, I'm lazy too so I haven't really done any fanart, or any Chibi at all. Maybe I shall have to draw a months worth at some point or something. Sorry that I haven't been checking on any of your sites. But I haven't been online much at all really. So... yeah. I should be back online a bit more when I'm off break, or something. So see you all later. Merry Christmas, or whatever holiday you like, and happy new year.

   Friday... kind of
Well, technically it's not very far into Friday at the moment (writing this at about 12:20 am). Anyhoo, figured I would update a bit. Let's see... oh yes, if you didn't see, I uploaded some fanart on Wednesday; it's an FMA picture of Winry, Ed, and Al. It was some old lineart, which I may color later. Wanted to put my scanner to use before I left it behind. Anyways, tomorrow... or today rather, I'm going to sell back my books (maybe I'll actually get some money for the dang things). But yeah, that's about all I have to say, so see you all later. (oh yes, and sorry if I don't visit a lot of your sites... not online much, so I miss most of the updates)

   I'm done
Well, just finished taking my last final... or my final, final? Anyway, it was archaeology, so it was very... um... okay. I'm hoping B- or so. It started at 8 am so that was kind of sucky, but I went to bed early and got a descent amount of sleep, even though there were girls screaming and giggling in the halls for unknown reasons. I swear, as much as they scream about things, they could all be ax-murdered and I would never suspect a thing... until the screaming stopped. This morning, though, as I was getting ready to head out into the cold, I went online quick to check my email. So I was signed into AIM. When I signed off to go to take the exam, I got a rousing chorus of "Deeeeeaaath! Deeeeeaath!" from AIM, because I set that as my log-out noise. If any of you have ever seen LOTR: Return of the King, than you'll know what I'm talking about. Oh yes, plus I almost slipped on horrid black ice... so that was an interesting morning.
Anyways, despite all the crap this week and this morning, I am out, done, finished. After four days straight of testing, papers and the like, I have finished school for the semester. So I'm going back home now for a month. This means I'll be online significantly less (because I have dial-up) and probably less updates here. Definitely less scanned in fanart, cuz I'm leaving my scanner here.
Anyways, see you all later. Good luck on finals if you have them, otherwise good luck on school, work, or whatever.

Yeah, it's been a really, unspeakably crappy night. Why unspeakable? Cuz I don't want to talk about it. Yeah, I realize I'm talking about it now. Life's funny that way.
Oh yes, and better still... A man is being put to death today by our government. Exchange murder for murder eh? Well, whatever, I'm just an extremely depressing person to listen to at the moment it seems, so I think it'd probably be best if I stopped typing. Anyway, hope you all have a good day.
Ah, it's times like this that the Beatles song "Yesterday" seems so very apt.

   Sunday
Today is the day that my final exams begin. I have an oral exam today for my seminar class. I mostly just hope that I don't forget to go. Not too worried about the test itself. Supposed to be mostly kind of informal, so I think I'll do okay. Though I don't know what I'll talk about for a half an hour, blah.
Other than that, I must work, work, work. I didn't end up getting very much done yesterday, though I am feeling a bit better, thanks. Now I just need to work on moving back my sleeping schedule. My last final is on Wednesday at 8 am, so I need to make sure I can even wake up for such an ungodly timed test. Plus, it's my hardest exam... so I think it may finish me off in the very end, haha... @_@
Oh well, no worrying about that right now. Time to do more work, and perhaps look at the sample questions for my exam today.

   Late Update
Well, I'm really rather sleepy at the moment and I feel kind of cruddy... but I have updated "Chibi"! Yes, I know it's a day late, but I was out all day yesterday, and I've had crazy work to do with final exams coming up. This week's comic is at my DA site yet again (website link on the side of the page there) and it's a really simple gag, so, um, yeah.
Anyhoo, I saw Narnia yesterday. I thought it was really pretty cool. I don't remember much of the book though. It's been ages since I read it. I would recommend it; my roommate called it "Lord of the Rings for little kids." So it's a pretty nifty fantasy film, with some cool action and nice effects.
Yeah, well, I don't feel good, like I said, so I'm gonna go get some drugs and get back to studying. Talk to you all later. And don't forget to check out the comic!

PS
Cancel the "Chibi" up within the hour thing... my best friend is heading over early. So, um... it'll be up some time. I swear it upon, someone's grave or something.
