Yes, yes she is. Bonus points if you figure out where she is in the game…if you can that is! But seriously, if you can tell where she is, then I will be slightly stunned, and make you a fan-art.
Is she entering a store/house?
It's a big place.
Which pokemon is that? Ruby?
The land-mark post is mine, at long last it's mine! It all went to plan perfectly, muhahaha!

OH, and I think it's the early one, you know, with teh ghost tower and the cruise ship and the ORIGINAL pokemon?

Pokemon Red? Because that came out for the Gameboy Color, and I had that. Those cartridges are too big for the DS, I believe.

YOU MUST HAVE FIRE RED! The remake.

Ah yes, now I remember, it's Red! Yeah, that game…and I just realized I missed the landmark post by twenty posts.

Feeling very on edge right now. I was angry before but now I have that sinking feeling in my chest I get right after a confrontation. My ex-best friend is giving me trouble. What else is new, right? Her boyfriend has a problem with me for no good reason even though she and I ended our friendship very quietly. He and his mom are spreading around that I've "really changed" and that I'm "mean, ugly, stuck up and think I'm better than everyone else since I moved into a big house." This wouldn't bother me if he hadn't gotten his mom involved, who is notorious for gossiping and told one of MY mother's friends…

Now my mom is pissed and ready to ruin their relationship with all the posts my ex-best friend has made on yahoo answers and Gaia about their very unhealthy relationship. I really don't need that kinda drama revolving around me right now. I confronted her about it and she denies knowing anything about it but was very apologetic (probably because her relationship is a stake), so I requested that both he and his mom apologize to me. If they don't by tomorrow, my mom is taking matters into her own hands, and it won't be pretty… My mom may be very critical of me at times, but she's also very protective. It makes me very scared sometimes.

People still use yahoo answers?

No really though, completely destroy them with a frosty cold shoulder. Guilt will eventually sink in if they dwell on the subject. I doubt they're remorseless.

gahdammit…

I feel so freaking bummed right now. This happens every time I finish a really good comic, but this time it's even worse because of the ending. Anders loves Maria is possibly the best and most depressing comic I've read this year. Absolutely gorgeous story and I loved it for that, but just so depressing.

Now I don't want to finish my thesis, and it's due on Wednesday and I've barely started it. :/

Lol'd so hard, that's actually pretty goddamn clever though.

I'm on IE6, or whatever the heck the one without tabs is. It's worse than watching ELF.

Ugh… drawing hands can be freakishly difficult sometimes. At that point I resort to drawing the simplest form of a hand I can think of… a flat square (positioned at the same angle as the hand in the shot) and five lines, all proportioned to the dimensions of an actual human hand. Sometimes I even have to position MY OWN HANDS just to get a view of what the hand should look like in a shot. I know this is something I don't need to do when I do a spellcasting shot as the hands get covered up by the light the spell generates, but I do it anyway. -_-

After drawing the simple form I scribble around it to flesh it out and when I'm finally satisfied with the look, I then draw the actual hand. Kinda the same thing I do when I first draw a panel just so I can get the characters in the shot I want.

I do hate perspective shots, though… major headache for me most of the time. T_T

I'm tempted to announce that Magiversity has hit 150 pages… except 20 pages of those are fillers. I guess I'll just have to wait a bit longer before doing so…

Ugh… too many comic ideas flood my head when I draw sometimes. One such idea… an island with nothing but "beautiful" men. Think of a host club, except that it takes place on a tropical island and most of the customers are women who want some company (er… not the kind of company where they "bed" the guy), but rather some pleasant conversation and such. Worse… I haven't had coffee in the past few days so I'm not sure why my mind floods me with this stuff…

Not as bad as my last idea though… won't say much about that one except in order to draw it you'd have to take some lysergic acid diethylamide first…

GracehFaceh, you have awesome feet and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Mayday fun at the manor house yesterday, apart from the Morris dancing. But then it started to pour and the Morris dancers had to stop.:)
We took shelter in the tithe barn, which is cool because they always have an art or history exhibition in there every month.:)
So what's on display this month?

The history of Morris dancing. :cry2:

It actually looks quite cool here for the 5 seconds you see it

All Morris Dancing should be done to Safety Dance.

…What a song about kids dancing in clubs by an 80's Canadian band has to do with medieval village festivals I have no idea.
But maybe you learned the answer during your history lesson? :)

Ozone, by posting that link you have reminded me of that song. By reminding me of that song, it is now stuck in my head.

THANKS.

I need to like, get better at drawing.
that's pretty much all I have to say.

Sadly, attractive ladies leaping hither and thither with gay, or straight abandon, was never a feature of morris dancing. The reality is a lot more like this:

That msuic isn't to bad actuallt. The dancing is a little slow though… I wish I could dance that well :(

Sadly I'm crap with reproducing patterns, which is why neither dancing, nor music, nor maths comes naturally to me. -_-
Or even neat handwriting! - as you can see from my comic lettering up there. That's me being my neatest.

Didn't you do that to Shplane once? ^^
We all took turns at deleting his old hidden posts. Watching his mounting frustration turning into helpless rage was orgasmic.
I'm going to be watching my post count real close from now on.

I could swear I had one more post than that…

Okay I'm done for today.

I regret having gone through the past 17 4th of Mays and not having realised that.

You know what? NO. That was my joke like years ago! In fact I even got my gecko on the day of the army (March Forth!)

No, I'm not having this. You will be hearing from my lawyer.

as for me….I'm off to sleep at 5pm and I don't care who knows it!

Another team debated today, the negative team had the one chick that i've wanted to punch in the face all semester. She was so snotty and full of herself during the debate, and kept up this smug ass grin when the other team was up like 'you nose nothings OHOHHHHO~~'. Argh i've always wanted to like…quickly get eject out of my chair as she walked by since the rows are so narrow, and toss her flat ass backwards.

Yes…not overly passive aggressive at all *shifty eyes*

Yooooo, I dissected something for the first time today. It was a sheep's heart, so it wasn't that bad. It resembled a cooked steak. I was completely okay with it until; I got to lunch and everything made me think of it. Ughhh.

Being a doctor is going to be fun.

Better solution: Live on a college campus. Then you get to see that all day instead of just in class. Not that I'd ever take that into account when choosing a place to live, myself. <.< >.>

I just conquered this site in Web-Lords, an online game where you conquer and defend web-sites. Just started up, so you might not have heard of it yet. Just steer clear of here when it comes to Web-Lords and attacks, because I have built up a very nice Holy Defense.

Remember folks, never run out onto the field at a Phillies game.

Posted at 5:05PM, May. 4, 2010

Wow… had up to 900 or so people reading Magiversity ever since I started updating again. Pretty good motivation for me to keep going… 'til I hear of artists getting 10 million views on theirs. I guess I should just concentrate on telling a good story and not worrying about who or what is reading my work. T_T

I still get discouraged easily though…

Finally finished cooking my food for today. Corned beef (I wonder why they call it that), french fry sliced potatoes, quartered and sliced roma tomatoes, and half an onion. Then I realize I forgot something… garlic… which is supposed to be stir fried first before anything else… ugh… (yeah… water is added last).

Hmm…
*decides to run out onto the field in a Phillies game if he ever gets the chance just to see why he shouldn't…
