Workin' on mah picture drawing skillz. I haven't gotten TOO bad. I'm learning to draw backgrounds, at least. haha. ^^; If I do ever start up something, I'd probably post it on my putta journal.

I need to see my academic advisor soon, so I know what courses to pick. XP I'm also going to change my major. *sigh* I just picked the one I did because I couldn't find any that I wanted. >o< This college doesn't have anything I want. Raaawr. DX I'll only be there for one and a half year more, but... still...<<

looking at this site: http://uwf.edu/intered/fjli/

Hmm.... I don't know. DX I want to go to the college my sis is going to, because at least there I'd know what I'm doing. And I know for sure they have Japanese. >.0 But I know that college is garbage. This one I'm looking at seems a lot more organized and focused on the goals rather than the money.

Ugh, I don't know. DX

I only made one icon, though... Because I was bored. XP




Tadaaaa.

No games for the wii. Just wait. 9_9 DUH. It was way too big to upload though. XD But yeah, a whole crap load of games for wii and ds... most aren't out yet, of course. ^_~ I want an icon for wii games though... I'm not sure how I can do it without making it too big. Maybe I'll only include my top ten or something. XP

--Pucha--

....are hard to find. At least, that's been my case for a long while. No matter where you go, you're confronted by immature 14 yr old boys who (unfortunately) know how to work a mouse and keyboard (somewhat). So I've finally settled for wiichat.com which isn't too bad...

I've also been looking for female gamer forums specifically, found a couple, but they weren't too hot. Not to mention it's apparent that most female gamers on the net only play X-box and computer games. =_=()

----------------------- ---------- -- - - - - - -

Putting that aside... Here's a bunch of links and stuff I posted here.

( Lookie Links!!!!!!!!!! )

This is just a few of the games I am anticipating. Meaning REALLY REALLY WAAAANT!!!! I can't wait till these are released! ^^ I won't have enough money all at once, but I WILL get them all!

You see, it's these kind of games I wish I could discuss... on a mature level. Without all the whining and complaining about something or the other. Games are there to enjoy people. ENJOY them! <3

And man, I'll need a second post altogether to list the amount of games I want for the Wii AND the DS. <333 I just got Rune Factory by the way!!

I have reason to be very, very annoyed and saddened today. Everything in life so far is going pretty good. School, family (sorta), friends, most everything.

But. My attachment to my pets is what's caused a lot of discomfort.

My bunnies have busted a hole through the screen, and we managed to get them back inside. Twice we sealed up the hole, and twice they've busted it wider. This time, I told my mom, "Let's build a pen for them outside, but for now, keep them in their cage." She agrees.

Next #@$%@#%! morning, she lets them out. Doesn't even attempt to cover the hole.

....My black bunny, Lolo--yeah, she disappeared. =) WTF!?

Yeah.

Here she is. She has always been energetic (besides her bulking weight, in this pic she was younger) and so of course, she'd wander off. 9_9 Now I have one rabbit. And with the brains in this family, I doubt he'll be around much longer.

Well, rant done. Had to get that off my chest. (though I'm still VERY... angry) LiveJournal's for ranting and stuff, ain't it? #$@%@&^@*

Edit: Sad news, Lolo (above) was found dead in the front yard a few days ago. Took us a while to get over it. Biscuit's now strictly an indoor bunny, and we got another rabbit, whom we named Klonoa. I'll post more on that later...

YES! I saved up money for a few days and managed to nab Pokemon Diamond for the DS! XD I've wanted it for so long! My happy mood is going through the roof~

I chose a girl and named her Pucha, of course. And I started off with a... Puplip... or something. It's that blue water penguin. *sigh* Up until now, I have always stuck with the almighty FIRE type pokemon, but this pokemon's design totally won me over. You need to see its 3rd stage to understand. O_o It's mad sex, I tell you....

Ah man... here me ranting on about a pokemon being "the sex"... xD oh world!

...But seriously, it looks totally super special awesome. And the legendary is diamond totally kicks Pearl!legendary's butt. >.O Pearl's legendary looks retarded, excuse me for saying. The only gripe I have is that the whole new 100 pokemon thing is really the most unoriginal they've come out with yet. I'm TIRED of memorizing all these pokemon. @_@ Let's try working with the ones we already have!! I hope for all that's holy that this will be the last set of new pokemon, PLEASE. The game itself rocks though. All pokemon games I've ever played rocked... Even the pinball games, and I hate pinball. O_o So yeah, I'm one of the earliest pokemon fans, and I don't feel like stopping yet. ><

So far, I've only just gotten to the second town, because my DS need charging. T_T Maybe in a year or so, I will buy Pearl... secretly from my family though, they'd blow if they knew I bought the other version. << I just wanna finish the pokedex.... I'm thinking later I'll hook up all my old games to it and trade, so I can get the entire 458 different pokemon! HA! (like that'll ever happen) ^^; Nya, off I go now~

P.S.
I don't think anyone happens to own Pokemon Battle Revolution for the Wii?... Because I wanted to know if it has a story mode. I can't find much details on it, even though it's already been released. If it's something like Pokemon Colosseum or XD, then I'll buy it, but if it doesn't have a story mode.... Then I can hold off on it for a few years. XP Saving up for 3 Harvest Moon games, afterall...

I think I've lost all confidence whatsoever in my writing. I remember back when I first started writing, a LONG time ago, and let me tell you, it was trash (big DUH).

And I think I've developed my writing a lot since then, and I'm always constantly bombarding my own mind with ideas and new things to try.... It's... just getting those ideas to come out the right way. I think what my biggest problem is is that I elaborate too much on actions that don't need to be elaborated on...

I have the tendency to write out every little action... But if I don't, then I get paranoid that it wouldn't get the idea across, or that it would be difficult for a reader to picture the story moving. It's really quite annoying and I can't stop thinking of how trashy my writing was and still is. UGH.

And then I'm always getting paranoid about length. Nowadays, I try and keep it to 3500 words minimum per chapter... What I'd really like to do is start writing 10,000 word chapters, which I know I can do in a day, it's just... I don't know. I need a serious boost, and the only way to do that is to keep pulling at it.

v_v; *sigh* I'm at a loss right now. I'll just have to climb out of this hole and start fresh somehow... I'm thinking maybe it's because I'm involved in waaaaaay too many themed challenge communities. Those things are addictive. @_@ I'm thinking that once I finish all of them once and for all that all my motivation will come back, since I won't be under as much pressure... Eh, only one way to find out! I know a lot of people just drop their claims when they can't finish them but... I'm too stubborn! I refuse to drop anything, and I WILL finish them all! I know I will. So, until then...

Later~

Ugh, I've finally crossed over to the dark side. I'm just sick of toggling my icons. @_@ How I ever manage with just 3 before?? <<;

*ripped from my forum topic*

As you can probably tell, I'm obssessing over Harvest Moon~ I've been playing them on the Gamecube, Gameboy, and the DS, and I couldn't help but watch for this game.

Harvest Moon: Tree of Tranquility
You can look up a whole wealth of info on it here, it also has all the pics for the bachelors and bachelorettes, and the villagers. The story this time around is that you become a farmer in a place called Waffle Town. XD I always laugh thinking about the mayor, because I like to call him the Waffle Mayor. Fuuu~

Another good game on the release is for the DS, called Harvest Moon DS Cute.
Harvest Moon DS CUTE
Why I find this particularly interesting is that there is something akin to domestic coupling here. If you don't feel like marrying a dude, you can always hold a "Best Friend Ceremony," with a special female candidate, and eventually you would be blessed with a child by the Harvest Lord, or something along those lines.

Lastly, there is Harvest Moon: The Island Grows With You. Also for the DS.
Harvest Moon: The Island Grows With You
Apparently, you and some family get shipwrecked and land on a volcanic island. There, you build a town together.... I don't know much about this one, but since it's not the usual Forget-Me-Not Valley, Mineral Town, or Rose Bud Village, I'm really excited about it!

I CAN'T WAIT FOR HARVEST MOON WII AND ISLAND!!! T__T I'm saving my pink DS lite for that game... rawr..

"Rock and Steiner" and I, Azuru, now manage a HM slash fic archive on FF.net. Visit it @ Lilies in June.

And speaking of HM things, here's my latest:
( Under the cut is an expanding list. =P )

I've really gotten into this game for the past few months, though I haven't been playing nearly as much as I used to, lately. It's really good, and really cute. XD You get to choose from four classes, so there's not much to think about when it comes to "build". You just add to whatever stats are strongest for your chosen class. There's the "magician" (of course), the mechanic (as I like to call them), the power-house, or the charmers. O_o Strange classes, really, but you have to see it to get what I mean.

You can download the game at tricksteronline.com, it takes a long while though, and a whopping 1Gig+. ^^; But it's worth it~ It's easy to communicate with other players as well.

Right now, I'm a lvl36 Bunny, she's a power-type. ;P I want to reach lvl50, but it takes so much time! T^T Actually, I don't think I've played in... some two or three months. O_o I need to get back to it..

Here's why. =x

see all those games!? I'm always busy!! ><
