Played for the first time tonight. c: It was hella fun. I was Ellis, and fell in love with the fire axe. Gonna play again soon, hopefully~ We almost got through Hard Rain but then got kicked out of the room. xD; Gonna try something new next time, other than Parish 'cause Josh's already done that. I'm a total nooblet, 'cause I don't own a 360 and hate dual analog. But I have ridiculous hearing for infected, can identify them from afar before we see'em. Which is pretty useful to at least get a five second warning to my teammate. XD; I'm also a tank slayer. ^^ But gods do I hate cornfields filled with WITCHES. AGH. There were so many so close together. Why don't they startle eachother?!
Anyhow. XD Expect fanarts, yo. Ellis probably, and Witch. We'll see how I'm feeling~
EDIT: Played through all the campaigns but the end of The Parish. ;o Still loving the fire axe though I also got better with shotgun~ And I totally CAN hear things coming and identify them, I'm not crazy. And there were like a gazillion jockeys. DX But no more witches. Suspicious.
Also getting more goldfish next week! I'm so excited, Trespasser Il-Vec and Imp look so lonely. ;; Gonna get'em some little fishy friends. c:
EDIT OLP is coming to my town in May and I'm going to seeeee themmmm. Clumsy > Spiritual Machines, I'm so excited. @_@ We're even getting good seats! My first real concert shall be awesome~ -- Was linked to this amazing site by ~GloryoftheTurks. [link] ;o I watched a random movie, 200 Pounds Beauty was what I ended up with. XDD It was really awful at first but I liked it overall, and I cried at the end. Kim Ah Joong is gorgeoussss. *///o///* She looks like Jolin Tsai. It turns out she did her own singing for the movie, I downloaded her cover of Blondie's Maria, since it's amazing. DX <3
I also rewatched Twilight and downloaded/watched New Moon. I was really curious to see if they'd be any better after reading the books, and of course it wasn't. I can even admit to liking one of the books, and a lot of the characters. But my goodness those movies are AWFUL. Pattinson's so funny looking and an awful Edward. And Stewart would probably be a good actress if she clearly didn't hate her part. XD I kept laughing, and actually finding myself yelling aloud "THIS IS HORRRIBLEEEE". Luckily no one heard me, or my family thinks I'm crazy. I liked New Moon, the book, not the movie, though the movie was better than the first. I really hatehatehate how they cast for Jasper. Wtf, he's all wrong. Alice isn't so bad but not right. And Rosalie's supposed to be PRETTY. So's Esme. o.o All wrong. But I digress...
I'm slowly chipping away at my commissions, I really want to get them all done so I can relaaaaaax. And hold another auction maybe, or open RL sketch commishes. Gotta get stuff done before I can do any of that though. >.<
Three dessert recipes are coming soon to my dA Recipe folder. c: Peanut Butter & Pumpkin Muffins, Coffee Cake, and Berry Cheesecake. Probably sometime tomorrow~ I hope someone tries them. ^^ ;;;
I got a haircut! My hair is so short it doesn't fit in a ponytail anymore! o.o;;;; But anyways...
So I REALLY want a t-shirt that says Team You're Going to Get Electrocuted Playing in the Rain During a Thunderstorm. XDD ~Bakura03 and I decided that's way better than Edward or Jacob. If you write that in Sharpie or something on a t-shirt with a little doodle of a stick man getting struck by lightning and send it to me, I'll love you forever. xDDD
So, I wanted a laugh and am reading Twilight. I can safely say the movie was AWESOME compared to the book. >.> Oh the maze of horrors that is Stephenie Meyer's mind. I pity the main actors, I sincerely do. I hope that poor girl [Kristen was it?] gets a really good role soon. I feel better about hating the series after having read some of it, there are more grounds for my opinion now.
Y'know I think if Stephen King wrote this and there was no teenage I-barely-know-you-but-love-you-forever crap, it might not suck? And also if Bella wasn't the biggest bitch on the planet? c: Oh, and Edward should be British, it suits him more. XD It would be like Salem's Lot, only not really.
But yeah, I'm not gonna rag on Twilight fans, I guess I can see the appeal, personally I think with the above modifications, I'd like it a lot too. Also I want that shirt, I'm serious.
EDIT: All done the four books. Reading Midnight Sun's draft, legally for some reason. >.> It's awful. DX This doesn't sound like Edward at all, wtf. He's like a century old and sounds like a teenager on an after-school special. ;;;
Ryan Stiles, I adore you. D8 I really want to do some improv now.
I hope you all make one as well, I'm having fun going around and trying to fulfill wishes. >w< Santa Count: Eleven strangers' wishes fulfilled! Trying to ship everything out before December!
THE BASICS: Write a Christmas/Holiday wish list. It can be any 10 wishes you'd like to have granted, no matter what they are. Possible or seemingly impossible. People look and grant the wishes if they can. It's not about "OMFG PRESENTS", it's about making someone else's holiday a little brighter by giving. Personally, I get more out of giving than receiving sometimes. It's just a good feeling to give.
STEP ONE: ** Make a post in your journal. The post should contain your list of 10 holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from simple and fun ("I'd love a Snape/Hermione icon that's just for me") to medium ("I wish for _____ on DVD") to really big ("All I want for Christmas is a new car/computer/house/TV.") The important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want. ** If you wish for real possible things, make sure you include some sort of contact info in your post, whether it's your address or just your email address where Santa (or one of his elves) could get in touch with you. In this case, you can always just note someone on dA for the sake of privacy. ** Make sure you post some version of these guidelines in your journal, so that others can join in and participate to spread the holiday joy!
STEP TWO: ** Surf this forum ( [link] ) and browse the lists. Here's the important part: ** If you see a wish you can grant, and it's in your heart to do so, make someone's wish come true. Sometimes someone's trash is another's treasure, and if you have a leather jacket you don't want or a gift certificate you won't use--or even know where you could get someone's dream purebred Basset Hound for free--do it. ** You needn't spend money on these wishes unless you want to. The point isn't to put people out, it's to provide everyone a chance to be someone else's holiday elf--to spread the joy. Gifts can be made anonymously or not--it's your call.
There are no rules with this project, no guarantees, and no strings attached. Just...wish, and it might come true. Give, and you might receive. And you'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special.
Renny's List
1.) I wish for the wonderful people around me to get what they deserve over the next year, life is too tough on you guys. Especially my two best e-buddies Ryou and Dai. <3 And Houseki, AC, TechTech, Perfect, Lemmy. All of you guys. >w< Oh and to meet them, ESPECIALLY RYOU who is only like half a province away. ;~;
2.) I wish to finally get my birth certificate this year, so I can get a job, go to college, and be the best copy-editor and proofreader the fantasy genre's ever seen.
3.) I wish for art of Rensing with her fiance Ira'Mael:[link] . Especially if they were in their wedding outfits. Or any gift art at all, even more so if it were traditional and you sent it to me.
4.) I wish to be able to get Josh a gift he really enjoys; the Them Crooked Vultures CD, or the Races of Destiny D&D manual he wants, a miniature to paint... Anything really.
5.) I wish to make at least a single print sale over the next year. The idea of someone hanging my art on their wall somewhere in the world is the sort of thing that really keeps me going.
6.) I wish for snailmail and packages, especially used stuff. I looove plushies [link] , trinkets, postcards, letters, books [link] , anything really, I'm so easy to please with this stuff! *o* IlooooveGordonRamsay, andanythingtodowithhim. Oh, and I NEED stress balls and little notepads if you wanna be practical. ;; Note me for mailing info~
7.) I wish to find somewhere I belong on Gaia once again. The wonderful friends I made and skills I developed in the WH have lasted so long, I want to find something like that again.
8.) I wish to get over it. Everyone thinks I should be, but I'm not, and I feel weak hanging on to someone I don't even want to see again. I want to forgive, but more importantly forget.
9.) I wish to be able to commission some of my favorite artists over this next year. To see my characters portrayed in one of their fitting styles would just be amazing. Or just to have some prints off my wishlist. ;;
10.) And finally I wish for more time! On dA, to draw and be noticed by a company one day, to write and publish my novel, with my friends. I know I can accomplish so much if I just keep working for it, especially with everyone here's support. <3
TO THOSE READING WHO HAVE WISHLISTS There are some things I have that I can offer but I can't find anyone requesting them, so let me know if any of this is on your list! I'd prefer to only send within Canada, as this is costing me a lot in postage. XDDD -Overzealous- US wouldn't be too bad either, but probably no more overseas. </3
-Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles Volume One -Duklyon Clamp School Defenders Volume One -Rings, lots of rings! One that's handmade, very awesome and funky. >w< Taken! -Tacky necklaces, old or made with really weird stones.
So everybody have a wonderful holiday. Do me a favor and don't think about all the bad stuff that's been dragging you down all year. Don't think about the news, or the horrible things happening that make you lose faith in this species. 'Cause the world will keep reminding you all year long, so you deserve just this one break to spend with your loved ones.
-Rensing <3
