The cycle of creativity [May. 8th, 2012|01:41 am]
When I draw, it makes me want to write, and when I write, it makes me want to draw

So here's a thing I wrote (it's tied in to a larger story so some context is missing) and here's a related thing I drew

Why am I linking to this here, have I gone nuts

"You can do it Sasukeeee~" [Mar. 27th, 2012|01:41 am]
Today I learned that the "squealing Sasuke Uchiha fangirl" is not just a stereotype. It was terrifying.

Question [Mar. 18th, 2012|05:06 pm]
If I'm checking out OCRemix's Mega Man X album on Youtube, why do the "related videos" include a 23-minute anti-Semitic screed by David Duke and a 50-minute anti-Islam video from a similar nutcase?

Shut up and take my money [Nov. 21st, 2011|05:11 pm]
Last week I mentioned that I was holding out for a bundle of some sort before I got a 3DS and Mario 3D Land

Today Dan showed me this: http://mynintendonews.com/2011/11/21/nintendo-3ds-nintendo-of-america-announce-two-limited-edition-nintendo-3ds-bundles

[Current Music |Kirby's Return to Dream Land - Another Dimension]

As of today I've had this LJ for ten years. It's always fun grating to go back and see what a dork I was in '01. I'd post pretty much anything regardless of whether anyone gave a shit, often packaged with emoticons I wouldn't be caught dead using nowadays.

Mario 3D Land came out yesterday, I really thought about getting it with a 3DS, but I'm not sure I'm ready to shell out $200-plus at this point in time. I'm hoping we get a bundle somewhere down the line, or failing that, I can earn some more cash so I can buy a 3DS without breaking the bank.

So instead of that, I bought Kirby's Return to Dream Land last week. Lots of fun, mostly been playing that and Madden '12 lately when I have the time.

School is still going well. I'm not gonna be done for another year and a half, but once I am, I dunno if I wanna go into the workforce or transfer to a four-year school. Transferring would get me a better degree and a better chance for a good job, but on the other hand I will be pushing 31 and kind of desperate to be making money, having my own place, all that fun stuff I've been striving toward for a few years now. I guess I'll see what the job market is like in 2013, doesn't seem like it's gonna be getting much better.

I guess that's it

Today I saw someone wearing this shirt and listening to music from the Scott Pilgrim game

It was pretty neat

Also I finished a paper for my politics class so I should have time to actually do some stuff the rest of the fall.

I'm old [Sep. 28th, 2011|12:12 am]
Having a birthday kind of makes me wish I was doing something with my life

I'm sure it's all building toward something but for now I still feel unaccomplished and pathetic

Welp, the storm itself is probably going to swing east of here but we're still looking at a shitload of wind and rain.

My two main fears are that we'll lose power and/or the basement will flood again. As long as neither of those things happens, I'm just dandy.

Wish me luck :V

I think we just had an earthquake

A teensy little earthquake but an earthquake nonetheless

EDIT: And apparently two thirds of the entire east coast had the same earthquake :V

I'm back [Aug. 21st, 2011|11:33 pm]
[Current Music |BBCS - Alexandrite]

I bet a lot of you didn't even know I was gone. I've come a long way from posting every detail of my life here. (All the way to mostly just going on about whatever game I'm playing at the moment!) Those of you who I'm in regular contact with probably knew, which is all I think I need.

But while I was gone, now I am not. Huzzah.

School starts back up in a few weeks and I have a fair amount of stuff I need to do before then, but I'll probably put it all off until the last minute, as usual.

Bought BlazBlue Continuum Shift earlier this month. Initially I had trouble finding a character who I liked AND could play well, but then DLC came to the rescue with an awesome squirrel girl who fits my playing style pretty well, has huge damage potential and pretty solid combos (which aren't overly hard to do). Also, she has an awesome theme song that I cannot stop listening to.



I guess her wearing near nothing probably influenced my decision also. Cute female characters seem to come up a lot in my fighting game preferences. I'm sure it's coincidence. :V

Phone home [Jul. 17th, 2011|08:30 pm]
Got a new cell phone today. My old one was a clunker from the stone ages (2006) but this one has a camera. And I need to decide how much money to waste on games and ringtones. Tetris is a given, but then there's also stuff like Final Fantasy 1, Sonic 2, and Madden.

Also I bought Disgaea 3 a couple weeks ago and I'm addicted as usual.

Street Fighter Follies [Jun. 22nd, 2011|06:21 am]
Monday I downloaded the Arcade Edition DLC for SSF4. Having a lot of fun with the new characters, but it reset my online battle points or whatever so yesterday I decided to work on my Cammy. Playing with New Pork Monday night gave me some ideas for things I could improve.

So I'm fighting random dudes on PSN, winning some and losing some... After horsewhipping an Evil Ryu into submission I got my first bit of PSN hatemail, as he berated me for being a SCRUB WHO DOESN'T KNOW ANY COMBOS. Which is technically true (though I'm working on it), but he's the one who lost to me, and looking at the replay, it's not like he was busting out any impressive combos either, so... sour grapes, I suppose! :D

I do plan to work on at least some basic Cammy combos, but right now I wanna get more comfortable with Yun and Yang because I like them and they have an awesome theme.

In other news, my arms are sunburned as hell and the side of my neck is both really itchy and kind of numb. This too shall pass.

Whenever I hear Bohemian Rhapsody, this video always springs to mind. (Skip to 6:18 or so.) I'm pretty sure this makes me a bad person.

Probably not gonna get much sleep tonight/tomorrow, but I think it'll be worth it. I hope.

MORNING RESCUE [May. 27th, 2011|06:05 pm]
This week I watched Madoka Magica, first anime I've actually sat down and watched in several years.



It was delightfully fucked up.
