Yeay for new banner!

I've been meaning to change that... -_- But I could never do something I liked...

It's not what I origionally thought it was going to be, but Fei-chan likey. ^.^

And in case you do care, I do have all of my artwork at http://eternalpuppy.deviantart.com/ Then you just hit the "Gallery" tab. Just last week I actually put up my "steam punk" gal that I'm ubber happy with. :D Go me!

Um... yeah. Let's see... what's happening with me?...

Well, I'm going to Cirque this Friday with St. Genesious. ^.^ *excited squee* So I'm SO excited about that. That'll probably spawn some fan art. *malisious grin* (this site needs emotes... that would make me happy...)
There was a small cirque-ish thing that came to town a few years ago. That was cool, but the stage wasn't made for it, so it didn't have the same impact... It's not the same when there's a person swinging from a rope and they're only 5 feet from the groud, as opposed to 50 like it's supposed to be. ^.^ So that'll be awesome. Plus we should have pretty good seats. Bwahahahahahaaaaaa.

Um... lol. Well, I was leg wrestling with Lola the other day and tweaked my neck, that was fun. ^.~ She was flipping me over (because of my awesome lack of strenth... go me) and while my body was going, my head insisted on staying in the same spot. O.o Thus stretching my neck... I heard it pop all the way up... Not a fun experience. I don't recomend it... But I feel much better now. ^.^

And... Yeah. I'm exited/stressed about going to Id... I'm excited when I don't think about it too much. ^.^;;;;; So yeah.

Cognito ergo spud!

I think... therefore I yam. ^.^

Id- Inevitable?

I got into Id, not into B. I mentioned that in my last post.

And I just thought it was interesting the reactions I got from some of my friends. They were all happy for me, 'cause Id is a good school. But one in particular... She said something like "Oh, well maybe you weren't meant to get into B. So Id is for the best!"

Now, I realize she was trying to console me, 'cause I really really wanted to get into B. But I thought it was interesting, first of all that everyone assumed that I was going to Id, but that she implied that since I didn't get into B the first time, it wasn't for me.

I'm not sure, in fact I know that isn't necessarily the case. Just because you fail something the first time, does it mean you give up?? Gosh, I hope your answer is no. I failed my driving test the first time, does that mean I'm not meant to drive? My first date didn't ask me to marry him, does that mean I'll ever get married?

Now I do trust that everything happens for a reason, and I'm pretty sure that's what my friend really meant. I trust God and know he has some things planned for me. Maybe I'm not meant to be at B right now. Maybe there's something I'm supposed to do/learn at Id. I don't know. I probably won't know 'till I'm watching my life over from the other side and go "Ohohoh!!! Ok. Now it makes sense!"

But I don't think just because you fail at something once, that it's not meant for you.

No B for me...

:'<

Well, I didn't get in to the school I wanted...

Needless to say I'm rather bummed. I really wanted to get in. I wanna do art, and they had the perfect program. <3 <3 And it was my fairytale school................... gr...

I did get into a companion school to it. Which is all well and good, but it doesn't have the art programs that I want. It has art... but more of a fine art/put-it-in-a-museum type... and that's really not what I'm going for...

And I'm not sure if it's just the mood I'm in, or really, but it just seems like the school I got into is... second...

-----*insert long break and talk with friend*----

Ok, much happier outlook...

The other School, we'll call it "id", has some really cool looking art classes. Coming from a small school that had about 7 art classes, it's enough to make me drool. <3
However, unlike B, I doesn't have animation... Illustration stuff, but no animation...

I want animation...

But, I did get into Id... And I think I would feel safe there... I just don't know if it's definately where I wanna go... gr...

So yeah... ^.^;



This is not the life I ordered!

Who's speaking

Other religions rely on their power in speaking and their presence as they give an idea.

LDS people don't (usually) speak very powerfuly. We're more humble. We let the spirit speak.

Just my thoughts... Not trying to rag on any other religions. I think any religious person is a good person. I just was listening to something and thought of this.

movies

Well... Ok, yeah, I kinda died... But it wasn't as fun as I thought it would be, so I came back alive and decided to blog. ^.^;

So, movies... I've seen a few since I last blogged about that and I figured I'd share.

HBP:
So, first on probably every one's list is "Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince." Because... y'know... Harry Potter (and Twilight, but I won't get into that here other then to say Edward is awesome and Bella needs to go away) has taken over the world.
So guess who went to a midnight showing!!!? ^.^ Mwahahahahaaaa....
I went with Lola and I REALLY enjoyed the movie. I wasn't sure if I would or not. My basic thoughts on the movie were that it had awesome graphics, creepy dead people, and really nice skin. lol
Now... before you stone with rocks, mallets and magic fruit, it's been a really long time since I read the book. And I actually didn't like it that much from what I remember. I was rushing through it because of all of the hype, so that's part of it. But I remember thinking that it was just a bunch of boring relationship what-not. There was something about a memory, and the last hundred pages with the cave/horcrux stuff were really good. That's about all I remember.
So I liked it! So there!
...
...
*runs from hurtled heads of cabbage*

Ice Age 3
Eh... Ok... It had no storyline to speak of, and the new guy... What's-his-face... the ferret with the eye patch that leads them through the world of dinosaurs... The annoying little know-it-all... He bugged.
Although I did think the animation was top-notch. Dreamworks has some amazing stuff ^.^ and I am really beginning to fan-girl over them like I do with Pixar stuff (although not so much with Pixar once they got bought by Disney... Could just be my imagination... dunno).
The best part of the movie was the Scratt stuff. <3 I simply ADORE that little buck-tooth squirrel. <3 <3 <3 He's my favorite part in the first two movies, and he's got a bigger role in this movie. <3 The female squirrel was... an interesting choice. Not sure how I feel about her. It was an interesting twist if nothing else. Although I think she ruined Scratt. Or at least ruined the reasons why I love the little guy. I love his never-ending search for his acorn. <3 Then when they add this strange love interest... I wasn't really sure how to take it.
I did however absolutely LOVE the scene with the acorn's love song to Scratt... ROFL That was just CLASSIC!! That was my favorite part in the whole movie. ^.^ That and the very end where Scratt chooses his true love at the end... *snikker* WE LOVE YOU SCRATT!!

So...
I know I had another movie I was gunna talk about...
OH!
Inkheart!!

I've blogged about my movie before (precccccccciousssssss....) and I'm gunna do it again! Take that!
Well, it finally came out on DVD. <3 I'm disappointed though... I love my movie, it's a great movie... But it didn't get much publicity at all... :'( I was watching (not quite) patiently for it to come out on DVD. I was watching and waiting, and I only heard about it because it said "Now on Demand" on one of our TV stations... O.O Wait... what? You mean it's OUT!!!...
So I ran over to Target (well... ok, by way of Borders) to buy it. <3
I'm the happy owner of the Inkheart DVD.
Which brings me to point two: There are practically NO special features on this movie...
The only thing is one of the actresses (the one who plays Meggie (and one of the kids on Nanny McFee I realized later)) reading the last page and a half of the book... That's it... No behind the scenes, no director's commentary, no author commentary... Makes for sad fan-girl...
And I was really looking forward to seeing some behind the scenes stuff 'cause the special effects on the movie are AMAZING! There's scenes of characters breathing fire, and the scene at the end with flying monkeys, unicorns, and a big smoke/fire creature that rivals the Balrog in Lord of the Rings... GR!
But... I have my movie... That's what counts... <3

(and looking at this post... My English skills have sunk WAY down... I do more net-speak then English... It's sad...)
