Ive only started reading it. STOP SPOILING THE OUTCOME WITH PLOT INTEGRAL THINGS!!
You've started reading it!? Yessssss! It is my favorite thing, but I can never seem to get anyone else to like it.
What with crocty's troll being all hunched over, I was surprised to read a rant on his being tall. How tall are you, crocty?
He is so tall that he blocks out the sun. The circus attempted to recruit him due to that, but their tent wasn't tall enough, so the consequences were disastrous. It is perhaps best not to speak of that fateful day ;_;

In other news I finished the big essay and now I just can't seem to work on the smaller one. It's like I used up my entire allotment of caring for the semester

Due to the sheer amount of pages im only gonna be reading homestuck. I only have one life after all. Also thats good about the essay. No more getting glared at for having a close power outlet?

Anyway. Ive gave up completely on my course. My attendance is bearly at 50% anymore. I just dont care. I want to finish so I dont have to pay back the grant money and so I can get some qualification but the people there… I dont even give a shit anymore.

The change is supposed to hapen Wednesday evening sometime… That's Thursday morning for me- so quite a ways off yet!

@Ayes- LOVE that moving comic! ^_^

-Crocty- in photos it looks like he has a really young baby face so you'd never guess that he's big enough to eclipse the sun.

This place has changed so much since the time I found myself here after having to endure the (hostile) requests of the last community I was part of to leave it, and I was afraid it would happen here too. I guess the third time was really the charm (the first community… the RPG Maker community made me leave by banning me… because the Admin could do so anytime he wanted without reason).

The only people we don't tollerate here are dicks. …except for me, but I'm an admin so people can't get rid of me ^_^
YET!

OMG… I am gonna have to listen to last week's Quackcast again so I know what not to go back over in this week's par two on Money making! Gah!
I really wish we had a third admin to take over this stuff sometimes :(
Spang, why for you leave us?????? You bugger.

We have some pretty and attractive mods though… Maybe they want to be deputised to do the occasional Quackcast? Hmmm? We have lots of topics lined up, wouldn't take much work to get into. ^^

No more, because as of tonight my semester will be overrrrr! Also if you really must choose between Problem Sleuth and Homestuck, you have chosen aright.

I found out Mogwai's coming to Dallas this Sunday. Tickets are even less than $25…but no one else will want to go. "They're so depressing," friends will protest. Siiiigh

*Resurfaces for air*

I liiive-

I decided to launch my comic on the assumption that I'd have a few weeks to build up a buffer. I was going to have three or so comic pages done so that if life got in the way I wouldn't miss an update. The week I launch my grandma dies and I had to travel 2400 miles across country to babysit all my drunk relatives at my grandma's funeral. And I already missed an update (only my second one) because all my drawing junk is back home. Ce la vie…

Me and my mom and my younger sister all went out and got matching tattoos. Not usually my thing, but they let me draw up the design so I was reasonably comfortable with the arrangement.

Which makes me wonder - what kind of tattoos do ya'll have?

The pecking order of my chickens is amusing, it's like Mean Girls:

Head cheerleader: A large blonde chicken who is extremely intelligent. She has first pecks at the food and fresh water when i bring it.
2nd in command: A brunette chicken who is kinda mean, her feathers are pretty and well groomed.
3rd: A grey chicken who's extremely dumb.
4th: A black chicken who is cowardly and can't be away from the main group without freaking out.
Outcast chicken: A beautiful grey chicken with a nice personality, usually stays away from the main group.

Heh…Mean Chicks
I know i need a life

He's perfect. : )

"Hey, I think I'll print out some of my artwork to frame!"

"…what, wait a tick - what's yellow is now gre— …… FFFFFUUUUUU—"

Sums up my day. xD

Man, I'm so lazy to get a new monitor.

Only the most awesome kinds.

I stayed at work all day. it was fun. i enjoyed it. and there was nothing that happened today, that made me angry for being in the military. i also did not want to go around punching babies.

Posted at 3:05PM, May. 11, 2011

i also did not want to go around punching babies.

Yes, today, I, too, belong to the did-not-want-to-punch-a-baby club

and glad to see you back, Ally! very sorry about your grandma.

That is one cute bunny, Hippie. Makes me want to hug it and squeeze it, pet it and cuddle it… and then I will name him George…

…

Okay… someone replaced my Yuban coffee with this Nescafe premixed packaged stuff. O_O

In all seriousness, I wish I did have a pet bunny. But the last one I had was killed by dogs who somehow managed to break the cage open. :(

That's really sad. : (

My bunnies are inside bunnies(it's way too cold here to keep them out) so there's no danger of that happening to my special guys. Unless my dog eats them, which is pretty unlikely.

Romeo was just cleaning his little floppy ears, sitting in his cuddly cup. I think it was literally the cutest thing I've ever seen. Of course he stopped the minute I took out my camera. >: (

I really

do not want to write my history exam tomorrow and the next day. Ugh. Even if I were confident that I knew the material(which I am only moderately), I'm just dreading having to write for 3 straight hours(2 days in a row).

Psychology taught in schools is nothing. The real stuff is in NLP, Hypnosis, Psychotherapy, etc. And they won't teach that (or to be fair, they just gloss it over).

No wonder those 3 fields I mentioned have a higher success rate than psychiatry. So for your mental health needs, go see people who are trained in those 3 fields. Psychotherapy has the lowest success rate though… but way higher than psychiatry.

The conventional mental health system is barbaric, inhuman, and makes you even crazier. A dog or cat can do a better job than a psychiatrist as far as fixing people is concerned. lol!

Still waiting on our magical transition to the yellow yolky land of "The Duck" with its Gill Sans title fonts crazy forums and nice front page…

Posted at 7:05PM, May. 11, 2011

I even hatched out a new avatar with a yellow background for the occasion.

This when you find yourself in an airport and the Flight Delayed banner is blinking.

When you find yourself in the ready room on a naval vessel and told to stand-by.

Stand-by to stand-by.

It's the antici-pation that gets me!

I have been looking forward to today for far to long. I have just completed my last final exam….ever. (Unless I go crazy and decide to go back school for another degree.) I will not set foot willingly on my campus again until my graduation in December. I am finally D-O-N-E with school.

Posted at 8:05AM, May. 12, 2011

Congrats Niccea!!!! : D

I know the feeling… I have another week of school left but next week is almost all just critiques so this is really my last working week. I was working nonstop yesterday (save for a shower and about 20 minutes for dinner) from 6:45 am to 2 am this morning! I'm one of the few people who actually has all of her stuff near completion too, some of my friends owe 4 or 5 paintings!! It's ridiculous what they make us go through for an associates degree. >>

Graduation is less than 2 weeks awayyyyy~

Summer is almost here. @_____________@ I have never needed summer vacation more than I do now.

Posted at 10:05AM, May. 12, 2011

Umm like is it just me or is it really thursday?
because the changeover hasn't happened.

Posted at 11:05AM, May. 12, 2011

The new duck , pretty much looks the same as the old one ;)

In recent news, I moved back home (to my backwater fishing village) for the summer :D. Anyone gonna watch ESC tonight?

Posted at 3:05PM, May. 12, 2011

So I show up, beer in hand, ready to brave the new DD… or is it just D now? Glad to see that my "OMG stuff's diffent and scary!!!" anxiety has been postponed.

ho you got me good.

I thought you were going to say "this week has been dragging on and on and on" and i was going to be in agreement with you. but alas, that's not how it goes.

See above.

I cant believe that right now I'm in a position to start a CULT. I'd leave it at that. That is, if I were unethical… if I were a power-hungry psychopath who loves taking advantage of people…

No wonder the elitists look down on us. How sad. Why cant all of humanity just become enlightened so all these corrupt politicians, religions, corporations, etc. would just collapse? Because thats all they are. A house of cards built upon the gullibility of millions of people.

:(

Wow… found myself working on a car design for Forza Motorsport 3. Gonna put a character I created on a Scion XD. Her name… Una Palagi. A young woman who grew up in the Philippines and learned how to be a great defensive driver by the age of 15… by disguising herself as a young man who's mute and illegally driving her disabled father's jeepney all over the mean streets of the place to support her family. She then ends up invited into a racing club created by a crazy megarich Australian named Maxwell Maximillian and becomes a founding member/driver of Team Lucky Carrot. heh…

Ugh… cults… just like that myth about the Lemmings who explode when someone presses the "nuke" button. Oh, wait… wrong lemmings.

Ugh… the price of my favorite coffee went up by a lot. I guess I'm stuck with Folgers coffee which is cheaper than even the cans of the Western Family coffee out there (and it tastes worse in my opinion). I hope there are no Folgers paint thin… *cough* coffee fans out there…

Now time to fry some flounder fillet for breakfast. If I can figure out how to keep the thing from sticking to the pan, that is…

Posted at 4:05PM, May. 12, 2011

No change yet?
I see now. They must have meant next wednesday.

This is probably the only time I have ever agreed with you. : P

@hyena: I think we should stick to DD and drunkduck in the forums. We all know the duck's only gotten better at hiding his alcoholism.

First half of my history exam over! : ) I wrote 18 freaking pages. As a joke, I asked my teacher a few weeks back: "So after the exam, how long does it take before we regain the use of our writing hand?"
Now I'm thinking that's pretty accurate.
