Come here and sit on my lap laddy, for I have a story to tell you: I wanted to make an OC based on myself, and since Pokemon was getting cool again I drew a doodle of me as a trainer over a year ago (during class of course 8D). Then I started thinking how it wouldn't be fair only having Pokemon I liked so I started basing my past pets as my Pokemon. Ideas for comics or OC Tournaments were always in the back of my mind, but I never drew them. Now, I've been doodling something every day at work (I'll post those later), and about a month ago I doodled my coat (which is cooler than I thought).

I remembered I drew my Pokemon OC with that same coat on. I also remembered that I had a backstory that I travelled with my little brother and thought it'd be funny they pretended they were twins. Then I thought what if they really WERE twins, like in the games but they wouldn't be little girls, they'd be big guys (like the Subway Bosses). I kept getting ideas and now here I am with about 20 comics already rough drafted.

I didn't think the first comic [link] would take me AN ENTIRE MONTH to do. It took about 1 hr sketching, 6 HRS LINING, and 4 hrs for colors/text. I think I'll do the rest of the comics like that Fresh drawing [link] , no lining and just coloring on top of pencil sketches.

I hope I'll draw more soon and you all like these new comics!

My internet's been down since Saturday. THAT'S SIX WHOLE DAYS. *coughs blood*

The only thing keeping me sane is the computer at work, yet I can't use it too much either or I'll get in trouble. I also can't get on facebook at work (not that I use it much anyways) to angst all over the place so I'll tell you my tales of woe (and whoa) here.

BAD ENDING: I just started watching Supernatural finally and had watched about the first 8 episodes by Saturday morning. I go to 's house for a few hours, during which a HUGE-ASS blizzard hits, and get home to find the internet is down AGAIN. I'm gettin' a little pissed off cuz this seems to happen EVERY SINGLE TIME the weather is too hot/cold/windy/rainy/alksdjfaskldkfk. And since it's the weekend I can't call to get it fixed which means THE WHOLE WEEKEND WITHOUT INTERNETZ WUT.

So I tried wasting time by playing DQ IV and Ouendan 2, a ridiculous amount of sudoku, napping, listening to music, reading manga, and compiling my class doodles (LOL almost typed noodles there) in Photoshop to put into my scraps here later. It's times like this that make me wish I was like Levsta with just a bunch of anime on my computer. AND THEN Levsta had to be a and call almost every day talking about all these new anime and games (like Kill Me Baby and Katawa Shoujo) he's doing online while I can't.

Monday I didn't call cuz I thought someone else in my townhome area would, but it seems it's only us that's down AURGH, I died trying to beat the last boss of DQ IV like 3 times and messed up on a few sudoku. Tuesday I called but got their machine, but they called me back and said they'd try to fix it the next day. Wednesday they told me they can't come until Friday which means NO INTERNET FOR SEVEN DAYS STRAIGHT. *has a heart attack* And SOPA got rid of Megaupload NO. And I COULD technically watch Supernatural at work but then my work-speed would drastically decrease cuz I'm so distracted LOL.

GOOD ENDING: Nishikori Kei got to the quarterfinals in the Australian Open. I beat DQ IV and now have the bonus chapter to do. I watched the pilot of Touch yesterday which was cool, but what was even cooler is that I started just doodling an eye (like always) during it, which then soon evolved into an awesome-looking drawing of a lady if-I-do-say-so-myself. I couldn't believe that I was able to create it. Neither did my mom. So look forward to an update actually. _maybe.

Oh, and Happy Chinese New Year. I hear it's the Year of the Shino.

~*~*~PS-I know I owe a drawing (WHAT DO YOU WANT GIRL!?) and something for (wanna art-trade?), but anyone else I'm forgetting?~*~*~

Actually I got back on Friday night, then spent the weekend trying to get rid of weird sleeping hours but I still wake up at like 4 AM and get hungy at weird times. (  `3`)

Oh my GOD was there so much cute stuff in Japan I wanted to buy but couldn't/didn't! I DID get an octopus doll and mini chinese zodiac figures. *squeels4everplz* And I bought so much stuff for Levsta cuz we're so alike GOSH.

Quick overview of things I did in Japan:
-Ate lots of food like sushi, ramen, melonbread, etc.
-Ate some weird food like manray, horse, boar and duck.
-Bought some games and lots of manga BUT STILL NO CHACHA #12. WAI U H8 MEH JAPAN WHEN I WUVS U SO!! (TT^TT)
-Saw a little bit of Toriko, Doraemon, Shin-chan and Conan, and the One Piece movie 10 Strong World UNF.
-Visited Miyajima where there were a bunch a deer just walking around town.
-Visited my grandpa's grave and a temple/shrine near my grandma's house.
-Spoke english at my mom's friend's english class.
-Bought stuff at a 100 yen store.
-Rode a TON of buses and trains.
-Bought a coat, jeans, and a One Piece shirt UNF.

Well, that's all I can think of right now. I think I'll do a more detailed report with pictures on my livejournal. Now back to NOT drawing things!

ps-I had like 2990 deviations a month ago, got it down to about 1300 before leaving for Japan, and now I have 3500.

pps-The very first song I hear on my iPod when I landed in the US was America's version of "Maru Kaite Chikyuu." WHAT A GREAT WAY TO BE GREETED BACK TO MY COUNTRY.

AMER-JAPAAAAAAAAN!!! Hmm... doesn't quite work as well but it'll have to do.

That's right boys and girls (get outta here ladies), I am going to


It's about time! Last time I went was *GASP* seven years ago!? WHAT THE HELL!!!? Gotta make up for lost time and buy a bunch of cool shit!

So what does that mean for you other than being envious? That means I'm gonna be gone for a few weeks unless I can find a signal/computer while there cuz Japan is a world of cell phones but not computers.

But then that's not much different from now since I never update (DAMN YOU WORK). I wanted to draw at least SOMETHING before leaving but I guess not.

Pray that I don't get radiation and/or food poisoning!

So apparently it's devART's birthday on the 7th, my friend's on the 8th, and mine on the 9th (exactly 1 week away). WHICH MEANS YOU GUYS BETTER GET READY TO GIVE ME STUFF. *stares at Levsta unnervingly*
