So, the two K-on! dollfie dream fullsets have been officially valued at just under $700. As much as I ADORE the Yui one, I just can’t spend that much on her. I hope to own a fullset dollfie dream some day, but I guess I’ll just have to like her more to get it. They’re gonna sell the uniform (sans the blazer) so I’ll probably get that when it comes out. I would actually like to make my own Mugi girl at some point, maybe. Even though she’s my third fav K-on girl, she’s my favorite in design. I love her peacefulness.
But enough about that. Oh, hey, look, we have a banner now *blinks* Huh, I guess Tony did that.
I’ve been going through my old drawings and practicing my traditional coloring because, frankly, I suck at it. I’m not improving very fast. It’s frustrating.
Last night I woke up feeling really sick, so I stumbled out of bed. Those of you who wrote my writing exercise know that my imagination is vivid when I’m between being asleep and awake, and I had this great inspiration and just starting drawing at like 3:00 AM. Basically I thought up a Borderlands inspired world and all of these costume designs floated around in my head, sort of like adventure gear meets steam punk. I’m leaning towards using my friends as characters, but I’d have to ask them/see if I can even draw them decently (I still have problems drawing Tony and I swear I’ve drawn him a bajillion times). I’d also probably have to contact them sometimes and be like “what would you say in this position” annnnd I dunno if they’d want to be bothered.
Oh, sorry, I totally didn’t explain that. I was thinking of doing an illustrated online novel/webcomic with it. Basically the idea is that I can either draw or write whenever I want, or do both in the same installment, so that I don’t get worn out with it as fast. I get tired of drawing really fast, but I can write for quite a while before it gets to me.
My last idea for this comic/writing project involved a zombie plot, but frankly, I don’t think I could draw zombies (although I did a hilarious group drawing of the L4D1 zoms). Plus as I sketched out the plot I realized that it was too heavy for my tastes, what with the death and the turning into the living dead and such. This plot is much lighter.
Unnnghhh I want to work on it right now, bye bye XD

Tony and I both had an awful semester, and both of us finished today! So…hoorayz for us! I was actually supposed to be done tomorrow, but it is supposedly snowing about a foot tonight into tomorrow night, and so they canceled school tomorrow. Thankfully my professor is giving us the option of taking the final on January 30th or just taking your grade as it is now. I’m probably gonna do the latter, but I guess I have to figure out what the average of my two tests is. I mean, I got a high B on one and an low B on the other…. So the average should be a B, right? :/ It’s confusing because each test had its own range of what a B was. I don’t really know what to think.
My happiness would be complete except for one thing. Those of you who have hung out with me probably know that I’m paranoid. Very paranoid. So I got a message saying that RAs will come “inspect” our rooms on Sunday, during which I will not be here, having fled the supposed blizzard. Then it had this huge list of things to do, because there might be water damage or a fire or maybe a Godzilla attack over break when I’m not here. So now I’m all like, “I can’t leave my Xbox and games here, what if the RAs steal it/forget to lock my door behind them/the room floods/etc.” I don’t trust people just freely going into my room like that. The problem is that just about everything I have in this room is valuable. The TV, the Xbox, the games, the Ipod, the dolls, the external hard drive, the DS lite, etc. Am I totally paranoid?
I cannot wait to start working on my dolls, but I have no nail polish remover/acetone/some other old faceup remover :/ Maybe the store below Tony’s apartment will have some nail polish remover?
I really need to go Christmas shopping, but I have no idea how I’m gonna get to the mall if it snows a foot. Uh oh.
