ForeverSilent ver4.0 features orichara Forever (aka Evie) and Kingdom Heart's Sora, Riku, and the Paopu Tree, chibified. Insperation for this layout came from the title of one of the peices on the Kingdom Hearts soundtrack, which is "Holy Bananas!" Seriously, it is. I just thought Sora would be the type of person that would say that, and Riku naturally followed. =P Evie of course is there since the journal's named after him. Despite the name there are no bananas featured in this layout.

Alive since August 3, 2002

I now have an Orihime-mode. Saturday, September 6, 2003

10:30 pm

Did you know that there is a spider that comes in the bright green + black + SHINEY gold + SHINEY silver markings? And that they live in my area?? I WANT IT! or like, some shiney picture of it! Except that I'm kinda afraid of spiders in my house XD;;. But it was the most awsome living creature I've ever seen, SO COLORFUL AND COLOR COORDINATED!! =o__o= so weird. XD Kitteh's heard me rant all about it. I wanna know what species it is... =o_O= it was friggin metalic shiney gold and silver spot/stripes man! *shuts up about it*

But we all know the real reason I update this now is cause I feel like putting up some art. And we all know you're only here for the art! (okay, I bet you mostly don't care XB but yeah).
Yawara, a random original Naruto chara to go along with Sen and Jen's chara Te. XD Yes, we are dorky enough to form a random Rain nin team, but eh... Anyways, Yawara's hair looks a bit like Duo's, it was somehow unavoidable... eh. =3 Scribbled this at a pchat with Spikey.
A request that I started working on. I'll finish it eventually but now that the sketch is down I need to do some of the other stuffs I've been promising people.
Collab no.1 with Kunika and Dar. In pchat because at the time oC didn't seem to be working for me. =B You can probably tell the blond kid is mine. =^^;; he looks a lot like I was trying to draw Naruto.. eh.
Collab no.2 which you'll have seen if you watch Kunika on Devart. yar, Naruto is mine, Shika and Sasuke are Kunika's. XD I woulda loved to color this but it's pretty cute the way it is too.
Collab no.3 with Spikey =3. oC worked again and there was some seriously annoying fangirl in the pchat so we just did collab in oC. =3 Random fluff. XD I need to stop making my uke's look so reluctant.

Grr, that fangirl was annoying though! Me and Spikey are drawing these guys and she just goes and doodles some stoopid avatar between them and is all "you're both so hot I'll have to marry you both!". So I roll my eyes and I write "Sorry, they're gay lovers." And underline/circle the word GAY, saying "as in NOT BI". She then replies "oh you'll be bi, or better yet straight, when I'm through with you~!" AUGH. =__= I can't even remember if there's anything I hate more than a fangirl that likes only straight pairings. Muh, it might not have been so bad if she didn't DRAW ALL OVER MY SPACE! >O *only allows friends to do that* grrrrr.
I wonder... was I ever like that? No, I couldn't draw avatars fast enough then and I didn't know pchats existed... XD hahaha, yeah, I'm definately better than her *egoness and arrogance, SHOT*

a worthy subject Tuesday, August 19, 2003

5:49 am

LIEK OMG IM SUCH AN ASS!! *has collabs with Spike she never put up* yeah, I'm gonna do that.

SUPER NINJAS~! Aka, I'm a COWP. =D Yeah, I'm not sure how we got into that but it amuses me. Her ninja (left) reaction to mine (right).
Wolfwood and Vash doodle. *pets Wolfwood* Spaiku has uber fecksie style, especially when doodling.

YEY, WHEN IT RAINS, IT FLOODS! (or something =o_<;;)

4:39 am

HAHAHA, finally have a little bit of stuff worthy to talk about. Ah, I haven't updated in forever though. =__=;; how ironic *eyes journal's name*.... *KAFFS* Anyway, I was thinking of revamping this layout again, and also renaming the journal One Way Sympathies, because I'm pathetic like that, and Bleach makes me happy. YEYEY! *ruins suprise*. I haven't figured out what I'm going to do with the pic I wanna use for the layout though. DAMMIT, GIVE ME A SPARK!!

I've also been jumping everyone and telling them "READ BLEACH!! BLEACHBLEACHBLEACH!!" cause I am that desperate to have people to talk about Bleach with XD;; I'm so bad at fangirling by myself. I still haven't been able to squeeze out a decent pic for the Devart Bleach club I'm in. =;;__;;= poor thing, so few members, SO FEW. And TW isn't far enough into the series for me to be allowed to fangirl about the pairing I want. DAMMIT, WHY AM I SO PATHETIC?!

In other news, I HAVE PICS!!. I only ever have pics when people collab with me, and I haven't been able to collab much cause Del was gone most of the summer, Kitteh's oC died, and... =;;__;;= *hasn't been talking to Roo* I miss you but I don't know what to say =o_<;; it R SUCK. So yeah... But then Ash gave me a link to a PaintChat and it WORKED for me, and worked for kitteh, and so THERE BE ART! yey.
first random doodle of a girl who looks rather soaked. Atleast, she's supposed to look soaked
first collab with Kitteh. The pchat has new painterly watercolor tool and some other fun things, and a smooth pen line drawing thing. Tis pretty =D almost like oC without the pressure sensitivity. My dood has the dorkiest expression.
third collab. Kitteh again, kinda half-assed cause it was getting late and kitteh needed sleep XB. Oh well. Atheral looks all... young... and =o_<;; stuff. Kitteh, just poke me when you get on aim again and I send you full size.
second collab and my favorite I think, even if every time I draw Axel he LOOKS LIKE A LITTLE GIRL. Grawr rawr. Kitteh liked him though so I'm okay XB. She makes Random look properly manly *noddy*. =D I think I might make this into a wallpaper if I can find the time to. I can't make those cool neato wallpapers with the happy grungy text flying all over. =\ oh well.
That's it for pics.

OMGOMG GIMME NARUTO YAOI PR0N~!!1

*runs off to attempt to either sleep or do pics* TRADES! =X0X=

FULAN.COM IS BACK! Tuesday, August 5, 2003

12:18 pm

BOHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! ... Sadly, I missed my journal's anniversary/birthday by 2 days because of all the recent troubles... *depress*... well... it's not like I made that anniversary layout I wanted to do for it anyway. *DANCE* BUT THE SERVER'S BACK NOW, BOHAHAHAHAA, everything should be in working order again =^__^= *beambeam*. Well, hopefully we won't have any more big troubles for a LONG LONG while, since my dad got a more expensive account with the ISP so they'll allow us to have a server and stuff. *runs off to go check everything and inform people and stuff* Maybe I'll come back and write a real entry later...

Awesomest thing EVER done for me! Sunday, July 20, 2003

0:00 am pm

Kitteh's RikuSora XDDD FOR ME!! In real life! I can touch and feeeel it! *doesn't for fear of smearing it all over*. XD It's so sweet though, they look like they'd be kissing if the paopu fruit weren't in the way, lol. *SQUEEZE THEM* =;;___;;= She gave me one of her first fanarts, I feel speshul.

=3 Hopefully I'll get those Riku photos by tonight and can post them. XD RIKU IS NOW MY PLAYTHING! Hah, I just love saying that XBB *beams*

6:12 am

KITTEH IS THE MOST AWESOME PERSON I KNOW!!! UBER ROCKIN RIKU ACTION FIGURE NEATO-NESS!!

XD Forgive my lameness. I'm still hiding it though XB;; Hahaha. =;;____;;= She sent me Loads of pretty sketchies and piccies and that marker pic she did for me for my birthday and THIS FRICKIN AWSOME RIKU ACTION FIGURE! XD Alright it's got more figure than action in it but I mean, she went out and bought me something and then sent it to me *CRYSOB*. First time that's happened ever! =o_o= And crap! I just remembered what I wanted to scan! *shot* Jeezus, and I turned the scanning comp off too. =;;____;;= She drew me a gorgeous pencil pic of RikuSora. I'll never get over it! I'd drool on the pic but since I really can now I don't think I'll ruin it XD *GLOMP TEH KITTEH* If you can't tell already this entry is pretty much dedicated to her, and her PRESSIE. Gawd. XD hahaha, Look forward to scansies and photo's of Riku in the near future!

Kitteh: *KISSKISS* =^0^= I lum all over you!

Spikey: >D SEME SHIONNESS, NOW

Ash:: Lol XB as you already know, gotcher bloggie linked now. *POKE* UPDATE IT WITH SKETCHIEDOODLES!

15th, 5:54 am

I decided to attempt to doodle. So heres a bitchy uke (angry, pouting, all the same) for you to look at. He's Leitei, from an rp with Spikey. XD;; doesn't look too much like an uke does he? Not at all like you imagined is he? Well, I dunno. Buh, need to do more than headshots when I doodle =__=;; At least the fuzzy blurry-ness makes me happy.

I'll never be able to draw him again. That's a bad angle to start chara designs from =@__@= muh.

11:42 pm

Y'know, I never realized how incredibly bored I could get til this week, er, or rather last week sometime... My productivity is down to 0% again. Hah, should add a meter in my left column somewhere indicating productivity level, not that anybody's looking over there. The boredom between the times I'm talking to people or having something to do (which is sadly becoming less frequent) is so incredibly dull. To add to that, my reading kick has lossed its steam ever since HP the 5th. =9_9= hmmm. Project ideas are not forthcoming. Everything I think of I don't really want to do =^^;;

As a result of this boredom I spent from 1:00am to 11:00am rewatching the whole Slayers Try season. I'd forgotten how evil Xel could look. They're more like politicians than Evil Monsters of Destruction (wait those are pretty close), don't you think? Mazoku I mean. Or maybe that's just Xel and Beastmaster or whatever. =9_9= And y'know, Zel's just a big showoff dork, I love him. He likes being flashy but he won't admit it. Need to rewatch Next again, filler eps are fun. Does anybody remember that there's a chara called Sirius in Try? =o_o= I was all suprised.

FLCL = fun music.

Kunika: =3 no worries, I figured it out now.

in an effort to entertain... Sunday, July 6, 2003

4:38 am

Well, the thunder clouds have moved on now.

I should update more regularly but stuff doesn't usually happen to me that people don't already have me ranting at them about. An unfortunate side effect caused by the fact that I know everyone that replies here and talk to them regularly on AIM. =o_o= All of you happen to have accounts on Devart too. So there's pretty much no point in having this page anymore! *pets Evie* Don't worry, I keep you anyway.

*looks at the time* I'm glad my dad has stopped trying to get me to conform to his schedule. =o_o= Always during the summers I have this habit of sleeping as little as possible, or at least not being awake in the late morning hours if I must sleep. I'm still not totally sure why this is, I guess I just like being up at night... =3 Hearing birds in the early morning makes me happy. Except the pigeons on my roof around 6:00 and 7:00. >O EVIL PIGEONS, MAKING ALL THAT NOISE AND DESTURBING MY QUIET! I like pigeons... just not in the morning...

Mbuh, well, for those who missed it (which is no one), I've joined the Naruto club at Devart so I could post these pictures. Just go to my devart account, the first 3 recent submissions are my new pics.
=;;__;;= sorry, no doodles recently, been trying to do more complete works and stuff.
Bart and Billy are on hiatus until I can clear out these trades I'm doing.

ROFL, oh yah, good news, I KNOW HOW TO MAKE PAINTER 7 WORK NOW!! *glee* Well, mostly anyway, when I paint on separate layers it still has this problem where when I press lightly the paint looks white instead of just showing through the layer. And the time it takes to change tools is still ATROCIOUS, but oh well, Painter 7 is now more friendly.

... *goes scan manga pics of Ishida now*

4:02 am

I wish I had a better window in my room, one easy to sit in front of and breath the air from. =;;__;;= Wish I had a good window, especially right now cause it's Thundering and Lightninging outside without the rain! =;;__;;= There's such a nice breeze in the living room, and you can hear the big big trees across the street sorta going "shhhhhhh" as the wind passes, and it's all very gorgeous and yummy and nicer than my STUFFY ROOM cause the only window I have has a messed up screen which lets in ALL MANNER OF INSECTS AND ARACHNIDS! blah... *goes sit in the breeze a while*

must consider getting rid of subject in next layout Thursday, June 26, 2003

1:21 am

Lol, forgot the pics that I did with Kunika in oC.
Avatars. Me being dorking on the right, pointing at nothing. *lums Kuni's lines too* XD;; lol, anybody's lines but my own.
more s-ai fun. *snrk* whenever I oC with someone we always inevitably do a s-ai pic. *lums that Kunika's uke has ROPE tied around his wrists*. =;;__;;= Kunika did beautiful bg *hearts it*.

lil pirate doodle. Kunkika did the coloring in his eye and the lil heart on his cheek =P the rest was me. *pokes the boy* X3 kinda cute and grumpy.

12:43 am

Haven't been doing too much since school let out, although I can think of a lot of things I should be doing. I've been talking to more people though. =^__^= Finally got to talk with Kunika for the first time just less than I week ago. Linked to her blog over there on the left. And I'm finally talking with Spikey again XD *glomglom* we've only been in touch sporadically during the school year, which sucks =@_@=. It's good to have time to do stuff again though, even if the stuff is non-productive.

Also managed to download lotsa scanslations this week X3. I've realized I really like Kaori Yuki, 'specially Count Cain. I really wish I could order things off the internet without having to go to my dad for it. XD;; Cause trying to order doujin though him would be awkward. I'd really like some Naruto dojinshi. Mrawr, must add to manga collection...

Bart and Billy from Xenogears. This is just a preview of a pic I've been working on for the past few days or so. Some might recognize it, since I actually drew this a while ago but now I've clothed the them and started inking and stuff. Having trouble liking the size of thier heads, but my brother said it's fine =o_o= so oh well. Muh, the rest of the stuff here people have probably already seen. So s'just for the few that haven't gone on vacation or something that haven't 'em it yet.
Jim markered. From that pic earlier. Roo told me to color them so I did, yep. I apologize for Jim's awful green shirt XD;;
Will markered. I think I might like this pic a little better, besides that the markers bled all over the place. XD;; really dun like these new markers, they're so hard to use.
random guy wading through water while holding a sword. Mostly it was an excuse to draw a guy wet and probably bleeding a bit.. but I wanted to color it and give it a real bg, with waterfall and forest and such, but I never got around it. =@_@= hoping I still will, but I have to do some trades and gifts that I owe first.


yep, nothing much that people I know haven't seen already. =9_9= must update my website sometime this summer, gotta get all the galleries up...
