So... 'sup chaps.

This journal is mainly for those of you that still check up on me every so often. I really, really feel touched and I hope this makes up for that lame-ass note I left in the last journal.

Thanks. Thanks for being there after I've so cruelly abandoned everything.

First of all, I will no longer be active on this account. Of all the reasons, this is the most common and outright: it has simply gone cold. To be honest, I no longer have joy in drawing for this account and each post seems forced. Though, as you can see, I haven't posted anything at all in the past months... but I think you get my point.

Another reason are my watchers. Don't get me wrong, I love all of you. I especially like the fact that you actually ENJOY the arrangement of lines and scribbles I present to you. The problem is... most of you, many of whom will never read this journal anyways, are merely watching me for the fanwork I did in the past, the fact that I used to (and still) ship Sakura-pairings. I'm glad that you enjoyed my works of that topic, but frankly I'd like to be watched for my own creativity, my own art style, my own characters, etc... In short, I want to be watched for me. I fear I disappoint everytime I post something, because it's not what you expected, watching me.

So, I'd like to build my watchers up again, from scratch, with nothing but my own, original work. 'course, speckles of fanart will appear but it won't dominate most of my gallery. If you care to join me again, I will work hard not to disappoint. (:

Here is a link to my new dA, though I can't promise any new updates soon:


My intended name was going to be sillyrabbit ...Trix r 4 kids! D: But that didn't happen. Already taken.

Anyways, I really, really do miss all of you.

So now, after making that announcement, I bet you expect this journal to be finished, done with, el fin. I suppose it could be, but if you're prepared to read a little more, I have a bit of rant left in me to catch you people up on random things about my life. That is, only if you care to read it, of course. No feelings hurt if you don't. (:

===========================

First off, my mother just recently had surgery and it seems she's recovering OK. It's only been a minor surgery, but I still worry. At least she's taking a break from working.

...meanwhile, I am working everyday of the week, with the exception of Mondays, when our delightful little restaurant is closed (note my sarcasm). I suppose it's OK, seeing as I'm filling in for my mom, but on Saturdays... I will be opening and working for 6 1/2 hours by myself. Pretty scary, considering it's one of the busiest days in the week. But what can I say? My parents, frankly speaking, are cheap and they'd rather have their poor teenage daughter working herself to the point of exhaustion than pay for extra shifts. But, bah, whatever. Shouldn't cause that much stress on my mom, after her surgery.

Next, I will ramble briefly on World of Warcraft. Yes, I am still playing this wonderful just wickedly addicting game. Currently, I have a level 53 lock as my main and the game's been losing momentum, fast. Perhaps it's my lack of commitment, but I find the long-drawn quests a bore... and too time-consuming. Still, I get on to have lulz with guild-mates and chat with friends. After all, it's always more fun to spam chat than to use boring ol' Yahoo!.

My current hobbies include singing ([link] ) and YES, drawing. Just haven't posted any of it up. I'll be more open to do so once I have my new account though (I'm looking forward to see how fast it will grow).

I have also decided to make a MANGA STUDY CLUB with my dear friend, . It's mainly going to be a social group for fellow manga-fans to hold intelligent debates and conversations over different series. Screw the anime, as most is crap anyways. We've had most things planned out and will only need permission to advertise and use school rooms minimally. As for those manga-virgins that come to us, wide-eyed and innocent, we'll scar them for life. Good character building ftw lol.

Also, there's this fanfiction that I've just finished reading, entitled "Sai's Fix". You can find it on fanfiction.net. But it's this really charming story that ships SaiSaku (this story has rekindled my passion for this couple). The author has a killer humor and her writing's really unique. The story's refreshing, to say the least, and I can oddly compare this to 1/2 Prince (a Taiwanese manga). I won't give too much away, because it would just ruin it. There are minor flaws, including some OOC-ness, but it's sometimes pleasant that way. Anyways, just go read it. I'm sure you'll love it (if you haven't already - the girl has 600+ reviews on that thing!).

=====================

Anyways, I will have a question round for this journal. Feel free to ask anything, and I'll try to answer. We gotz lotsa catchin up to do, so this is the best way. (:

I hopes everyone forgives me for being a emotional bitch-face (whatever that is lol), as I've missed you all!

I look back at this dA account and see it through Cassius' eyes. Everything that I've done, posted, said... they can only be expressed by one word: FAIL.

I think that I'll only post a few pics every so often; my gallery's just so spammed with junk. D:

Anyways, if you guys want, I just started Twitter: [link]

Follow lol?

If you play Warcraft and you DON'T know what means, the world has just ended.

I started the trial last Monday with my friend, and I have been addicted since. Because the trial's only 10 days, I decided to obtain a copy of the full (secretly but legally, lol).

I'm so excited! I haven't really been on 'regular' internet in the past 9 days now.

...it's still installing, though, so I must wait to play.

If you wanna find me on WoW, add and message Marlycia on the Antonidas realm! (I haven't used other realms yet)

Hey guys. It's been a while since I've posted up anything. Something drew my attention just half an hour ago and I've been doing research.

As some of you may know, I live in Idaho. Recently a Neo-Nazi group has 'revived' in the northern regions and is viciously recruiting members.

As quoted from above article, "what is wrong with these people"?! I thought such ideas and thoughts were largely proliferated - and even the small minority that thrives, what good comes of hating someone of a different race? Besides, like the man interviewed said, "not one is 100 percent white".

Also, about using Obama as an advertising ploy - what a spiteful, crude statement. Whether or not you actually like our new president, it's still WRONG, right?

At first this seemed like a matter to be laughed at. I even wondered what would happen if I showed up, claiming to be a white supremacist myself (lol), but after reading about the court case of 2000, there has been a lump of dread growing inside my stomach.

I'm really hoping the group will collapse or will remain malignant (sounds like cancer) so the rest of us can have a peace of mind.

I just felt compelled to write about this recent piece of news. Hope I didn't offend anyone~

On lighter news, I recently posted up a new vid: [link]

Please watch~

Til later.
