Tag, You're It

4 min read
:iconfrogslay: tagged me, so blame me tagging you on tagging on that.

1. You must post these rules
2. Each person must post 5 things about themselves in their journal
3. Answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post, and create ten new
questions for the people you tag to answer.
4. You have to choose 10 people to tag and post their icons on your journal.
5. Go to their pages and tell them you have tagged her/him.
6. No tag backs
7. No crap in the tagging section about "you are tagged if you're reading this."

You legitimately have to tag 10 people

Five things about me:

1) I get depressed if my room stays messy too long, but I don't tend to make an effort to make time to clean it.

2) I almost didn't bother to respond to this, but I decided to procrastinate on my homework.

3) I can't seem to finish anything I start. Ever. Homework is usually an exception, but even that sometimes goes unfinished.

4) My favorite fandom pairing is Tear Grants and Yuri Lowell. Who cares if they aren't from the same game?

5) I love Valentine's Day even though I am not a fan of the color pink and the older I get, the more my friends tend to ignore my birthday in favor of their significant other.

Questions I was asked:

1) What is your favorite game ever? Tales of Symphonia, closely followed by Fire Emblem: Rekka no Ken.

2) What's the comfiest outfit you've ever owned? I tend to choose clothing for comfort over style, so most of what I own is pretty comfortable. I can't think of any one item/outfit that sticks out in mind as 'oh man so comfortable nothing can match it!'

3) If you could be a mythical creature, which would you choose? Phoenix probably. I've got a slight fixation with fire (it's pretty) and the eternal cycle of rebirth is awesome.

4) What's your stripper name (name of your first pet with name of the street you lived on as a kid)? Victoria Aven (for the record, Victoria was a goldfish I won at the fair)

5) If someone offered you immortality, would you take it? Oh heck yes. An eternity to learn! So many things to read and see<3

6) What is your favorite book? That's a tough one. I don't really think I have one favorite, or even one favorite author. I'd choose a book at random from my bookshelf, but they're boxed up in preparation for moving.

7) What is the dorkiest thing you've done this week? Define 'dorky'.

8) Link the favorite deviation you've done. fav.me/d32pzio
I love this costume so much<3

9) What was the worst job you ever had? Well, I hate cleaning bathrooms, does that count? I've had to do that at a couple jobs, and of course, in my own house.

10) What is your favorite band? I don't have a favorite band. I just like…music. Mostly happy music.

:iconniamck: :iconkanashigd: :iconkokitsunemimi: :iconmizu-taji: :iconrivenpanic:

Questions for you to answer:
1. What is your internet addiction? (as in, where do you spend the most time online?)
2. If you could have anything for your next birthday, no holds barred, what would you ask for?
3. Why did you choose the username you have for Deviantart? (What does it mean?)
4. If you woke up as the opposite gender, what would your reaction be?
5. Do you think your zodiac sign fits you? Why or why not?
6. Which color best fits your current mood?
7. Which holiday is your favorite?
8. What happened in the last dream you can remember?
9. Who was the last person to make you smile?
10. Do you look at your keyboard while you type?

Tag of Ten

5 min read
I got tagged by :iconkanapy-art:

Rules:
1. Post these rules.
2. Anyone who's tagged has tell give out ten things about themselves.
3. At the end, you have to tag ten other people.
4. No tag-backs
5. You'll have to tell them they got tagged.

Well, here goes I suppose XD

1. I hate complete silence. I always have music or something going in the background.

2. I get addicted to things on a regular basis, but whatever my obsession is changes pretty often. I never fully lose interest in most things though, so I often get addicted to then all over again a few years later XD

3. I love long hair on both guys and girls, myself included.I have a bad habit of cutting mine though, even though I immediately miss it when it's gone. You would think I'd learn>>

4. I love to try new art techniques and things, so I save almost every tutorial I come across online in hopes of learning new skills.

5. I love to sleep. If undisturbed I tend to sleep for at least 12 hours straight if not more. However, I hate the feeling of missing out on things during the day and feeling like I wasted my day sleeping^^;

6. For the most part, I use Deviant Art as a resource and somewhere to look at other people's art rather than a place to display my art. I have trouble finishing art because I distract easily, and even if things do get finished I usually don't think they are worth showing off because I am not nearly as talented as most of the artists I watch^^;

7. I can't drive. I did get my temps when I was first able to, but driving terrified me so much that I didn't ever bother taking the test and I just use a state ID for things now. It really limits me, but I can't bring myself to hunt down a car to learn in...

8. I love video games, but I tend to prefer watching them to actually playing them. There are a few notable exceptions, mostly the 'Tales of' series and Fire Emblem.

9. My favorite color is blue, because I've never seen an ugly shade of blue. All other colors have some murky or muddy shades, but blue doesn't seem to.

10. I tend to lose track of time easily, especially in the summer when I don't have classes to help me remember what day it is. I usually wind up being nocturnal in the summer^^;

There you guys go, ten random facts~
And now I shall tag ten people! Not that I really expect half of you guys to do this>>
But it's worth a shot XD

Have at it!

I saw this in Spookydoom's journal and thought it looked fun, but I hadn't gotten around to actually doing until now. There are plenty of things I probably ought to be doing, but hey...I'm an expert procrastinator.

Rules!:
1) Think of eight things you really like! It can be movies, video games, cartoons, anime, graphic novels, bands, webcomics, anything. Doesn't have to be in any particular order. You got 'em? Good!
2) One by one, use the dA search engine for everything you've just thought of.
3) Choose three pictures that you like from the results (doesn't matter what page. If you want to dig a bit, that's fine!). Do this for each one.
4) Feature them all in your journal! If you don't have a subscription, just linking them will be fine. Writing little comments about the images is optional.

On to the featuring~!

1. Tales of Symphonia
I love this game so much<3
- Tales of Symphonia by Nacrym
This one caught my eye right away because I love group pictures. I particularly like how they worked the summon spirits into the background.

Zelos is one of my favorite characters, and I've always liked realistic style paintings like this one^^
- Fools in Love by BananaFeathers
My favorite pairing from the game. This picture is so cute^^

2. 1/2 Prince
If you've never read this, go to onemanga.com and read it. It's great~
-
Prince and his fans XD I love their faces^^
-
This is such a pretty picture! The snowman makes me giggle.
-:thumb134056849:
I support this pairing<3 (I like Wicked too, but I like Gui better)

It was hard to find pictures that weren't just recolored from the manga

3. ElfQuest
My first comic book obsession. I still like to reread them now and then.

- Tristan Thorn - Stardust by niphree
Tristan looks so much better in long hair.
- Stardust by guillembe
I really like the glow effect in this picture.

5. Paprika
This movie is well worth seeing if you haven't seen it yet.
-:thumb92794800:
This piece only makes sense if you've seen the movie, but I really like it.
- PAPRIKA by alrakyGirl
Paprika done in a similar style to the DVD cover. It's sort of like her body is transparent XD

I found this one interesting because of the way it's cropped

Hetalia made watching the Olympics so much more interesting xD
-:thumb123214301:
Very nicely drawn^^ It reminds me of a movie poster.
- Hetalia:faces of the nations by Brilcrist
That 'realistic' painting style that I love. I'm sad China isn't there though.
- APH - Cepe Indicum by R-ninja
I love the comics this artist does, but this one's my favorite

7. Yuri Lowell (Tales of Vesperia)
I thought about doing Vesperia in general...but I just love Yuri the most XD
- Yuri x Judith by alucureus
I like Judith a lot too, so she gets to be in the first feature
-:thumb110658365:
True Knight is my favorite alternate costume for him. He looks so cool in this picture~

8. Durarara

I hope everyone is enjoying their holiday break as much as I am enjoying mine. Christmas this year was pretty quiet, although it started early. We celebrated at Mom's place last night and had a nice Christmas Eve dinner before heading to church. I think that's the first time I have been to church in two years, since last year we went to Myrtle Beach for Christmas. It was nice to see people again, although I was surprised by how big some of the kids I used to babysit or teach in Sunday school have gotten. I did get to see the guy I used to co-teach with, although I didn't recognize him at first because he's grown his hair all out. The Christmas hymns we sung at church were pretty much the first Christmas music I heard this year, since I never listen to the radio. The candlelit service was nice though.

This morning I didn't get up ridiculously early the way I usually do. This may be because I was up late doing nothing in particular last night, or maybe it's just because this year it didn't feel as much like Christmas as it usually does. I just haven't been super-excited this year, and I actually felt a little rushed getting everything ready for yesterday and today. Maybe as I am getting older, the magic that made Christmas so awesome when I was little is wearing away. I don't want to be jaded D: I finally got out of bed when I heard Dad calling that Mom had arrived.

Christmas breakfast was tasty. It was a bit different this year, but still delicious. I'm glad that vegetarian sausage substitutes still taste just as good as real meat. After we ate we opened the presents under Dad's tree, and I am pretty happy with what I got. I got the one thing I wanted most, which was "Howl's Moving Castle." I also asked for "Ponyo" but apparently it doesn't come out on DVD until March or so. Dad gave me "Princess Mononoke" instead, which is fine because I didn't have that one either. Yay for a growing Studio Ghibli collection!

I also got several gift cards, the oddest of which is for Kohls. I definitely don't need any more clothing to cram into my already full closet! There isn't a Kohls down where I live either, so I have to spend it here. I have to spend the Barnes and Noble one up here too though, so my sister and I are planning to go shopping sometime before I head back to school. Maybe I'll find some of the manga I am missing, not that my shelves have room for more books>>

My plans for the next few days are pretty vauge. I'll probably spend most of the time lounging around coloring some of the art that's on my harddrive or reading the Mallorean. I read the Belgariad again over Thanksgiving break, so I think I would like to read the Mallorean again now. Since the Tales of Symphonia guild extended the contest deadline, I'm going to try and finish the other two panels of my entry too. Wish me luck XD

Happy holidays everyone~!

The :iconclaim-a-bishie: club is doing a Secret Santa exchange, and I signed up to join it^^

The Rules are as follows:
:bulletpink: The drawing should be of the bishounen of the person who was assigned to you.
:bulletpink: Put in your Journal what kind of drawing you want, if you want him in a Santa costume or something; and check the journal of the person who was assigned to you( ADD A PIC/draw,etc OF REFERENCE OF YOUR BISHOUNEN).
:bulletpink: DEADLINE: December 25, Please send the link of the drawing to the club and to the person who was assigned to you.
:bulletpink: Nobody must know whom was assigned to you.

Whoever gets my name has a pretty easy job, since I'm not particularly picky about the gift art. Yuri would look awesome in just about anything. A Santa outfit is one of his alternate outfits though. I saw a video clip of someone fighting Kratos while wearing a Santa outfit xD (They took Kratos out in one hit...and Kratos was doing zero damage. I was impressed)

I haven't actually finished the 'claim a bishie' meme yet, so I can't link that for reference. Here's Yuri in his regular outfit though (making various faces): <a href=static.minitokyo.net/view/28/4…>link
If you need more references, here's a few that might help:
<a href=www.youtube.com/watch?v=llCbf8…>Tales of Vesperia Opening
<a href=www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7ViW0…>Alternate Costumes
<a href=i62.photobucket.com/albums/h91…>A better view of his usual outfit
<a href=i62.photobucket.com/albums/h91…>My favorite Alternate Costume: True Knight

If you're like me and get annoyed when people are vague about what they want, go find your favorite pictures of your bishounen and use them for inspiration :D


I claimed Yuri Lowell at :iconclaim-a-bishie:
