08/16/07--07:41: Wheeeee!!! (chan 2066036)




Well. Summer's almost done. AH. But not quite, I still have just under three weeks. XD Uhm... >_> Yeah... I need to go in and switch around courses. I don't want a first period spare, 'cause I have to be at the school anyway. -.-; Unless I want to spend $50 a month on a bus pass.... which I do not. XD

Anyway, life's good. =D I'm pretty happy with the way this summer has been going, and hope it continues the same way for the rest of it. I did get stepped on during my soccer game on Tuesday, though... twice at the same time... though one girl fell. XD haha. But now I have a huge bruise on my foot. Yay.... >_> lol

Uhm... yeah, anyways. I w

The Rules of this Tagging Game:

The 1st player of this "game" starts with the topic "6 weird habits/facts/dislikes about yourself" and people who get tagged must write in their journals about their 6 weird habits/facts/dislikes as well as state this rule clearly.

In the end, you need to choose the next 6 people to be tagged and list their names. Don't forget to leave a comment that says "you're tagged" in their deviant page comments and tell them to read yours.

1) Fact: I'm a horrible perfectionist.
2) Habit: I organize things in weird orders.
3) Dislike: the sound of someone chewing... o.o
4) Dislike: the sound of nails down a ch


09/03/07--18:38: 1000????? (chan 2066036)




ZOMG!! I'm excited guys! only 5 more views until I hit 1k!!!!!

-bows- I will do something special for the person that catches the 1000th... >_> though I've not yet decided what. Probably a few manipulations if'n that person wants them. XD

:heart:

[since I have NO idea how to get a thumbnail in here. -.-;]

Sunlis caught my 1000th pageview. ^___^ I'm excited that I've gotten so many! ... >_> Especially since I've been on here since... uhm... December 5th, 2005. XD Almost two years to get to 1000... >_> Pretty sad. Though I didn't have many decent things on here until this year. ^___^ Now they're okay. XD


Also... summer's over.. -sigh-

BUT. I do like my classes. For the most part.
I have a first period spare, that I /might/ change.. >_>
Advanced Functions that... I don't particularily like, but oh well.. XD
ART! With


09/04/07--19:27: "stolen" pictures?? (chan 2066036)




I found a site, one person, who makes pictures (on an RPG) and... only credits them as "source - deviantart" soo... I think I recognize a few of the pictures... but I'm not sure. I'm also not sure if I should confront her or not... >_>

11/25/07--11:14: 31. no longer MIA (chan 2066036)




I find I have NO TIME. >_> Well, not much.
I've had so much homework all the time since school started that I've barely been able to get on the computer to even check my e-mail. >_<
It sucks. Big time.
I've been on a little bit lately, but... not much at all. No time to use Photoshop, except a little last night and this morning. ... I've started on a new deviantID, but I don't know when it'll be finished. Possibly today, I'm working on it a little bit, but I dunno.
But I'm barely home anyway. lol

Yeah... sooooo... I'll leave you now. XD Just a little update, but I'm doing well in school so it's all good, I guess. Still having difficult


12/17/07--16:15: Just for fun. ^_^ (chan 2066036)




And because I feel the need to update this. >_>
I hope I don't get my boyfriend sick, but I seem to have a very, very sore throat... also, I was really glad it was a snow day today. XD I had lots of homework, and I was gonna stay home, but this meant that I didn't miss any math... which also means I may have a test on Friday... >_> I will hate him forever if he makes it Friday... well... yeah, I will. But I'll have to write it later... or earlier. Stupid math teacher... -.-;

On a lighter note, this year I finally touched paints. lol And apparently I use them well. XD

12/28/07--07:32: 33. ... >_> (chan 2066036)




Well, I'm on winter break! Since a week ago! ^_^ lmao
I'm happy, but I've been working all week. >_> So it kinda sucks. o.o
Also, I have four projects to do... one of which I'm spending all day today working on. XD It's my art project... I get to paint a fishbowl!!!! ^_^ I'm excited... haha

So yeah... I haven't exactly had time to use Photoshop, but when I finish my projects (all of which are art related) I'll put them up here. ^_^

Ciao!!!

01/18/08--16:18: Bizarre.. (chan 2066036)




So I've recently discovered my "talent" with paint. Mainly oil paint (zomg I love it hahaha) - I don't do so well with acrylic, but I haven't spent as much time with it. Yeah, I never used paints before this years. Strange, isn't it?

ANYWAY, to the point.. My teacher suggested that I do commissions, like over the summer and stuff. MY ART TEACHER. She crazeh. Completely crazy!! Bleh. I have a few more things to put up here. Neither of which are very good (I find). Uhm... But I do have another one that's being marked as of now and I LIKE IT. Surprising, eh? I think you guys'll like it too. ^_^

Reggy. <3


01/24/08--18:18: ADDICTED. (chan 2066036)




So... I've recently become ridiculously addicted to a new-ish series of books. Twilight. GAH. Have you ever had a book that kept you up all night (reading) because you couldn't put it down?! Yeah. I've never been so excited, or into a book before. Well, never THIS bad. I blame Melia. lol And Lisa. XD :heart: hehe

AND I'M SO PSYCHED ABOUT THE MOVIE COMING OUT!!!!!!
I still think it should've been Sean Biggerstaff... >_>
But I think Robert Pattinson will do a good job. ^__^
AND THE SOUNDTRACK IS GONNA BE AMAZING. They seem to love Muse as much as I do. XD
They start filming the movie next month, eh??? YESSSSSS!!!!

Also, SOOO excited a


01/27/08--17:05: Goddess Challenge (chan 2066036)




[just... a note. This is Dante's journal just copied and pasted... lmfao because I'm too lazy to go look at her journal for the names and stuff all the time - especially when I really start. XD] [also... none of the links work. XD Obviously.]



I've decided to make a challenge, mostly for myself, so while I work on it I'm posting the details here to keep track of. <3 It's based on my Goddess Tarot deck, and a few extra goddesses I like. This is a brilliant chance to get to know your local goddesses! If you want to take the challenge, too, go ahead... look up the stories and pasts of the goddesses on wikipedia.com and get inspired.




01/28/08--19:48: Self-Challenge (chan 2066036)




So... Uhm... I've decided that my biggest challenge for myself... is making something that
people
actually
like.



My goal is to get more than 9 favs, which is probably impossible - actually more than probably. It's like... 99% positive that less than 3 people will fav any picture I do next. >_> Soo... my goal is to keep at it until either I get 15 favs on a picture, or ... I get fed up and change my career path. XD


... it'll probably end up being the latter. ^^'

02/02/08--00:02: Journal #38 (chan 2066036)




-yawns-
Okay... so it's now 3 am. XD thankfully I HAVEN'T HAD SCHOOL THE PAST THREE DAYS. Not because of the weather, but that would've done it, too. Finally done exams -sigh- and now I get to relax... until Sunday. XD When I'm curling all day... whoopee.. >_> Don't get me wrong, it's fun. XD Even though I bet more than half of you wouldn't believe that (it does look boring, I'm gonna admit that... and I don't like watching it).


ANYWAY. Finally used photoshop again.. ^___^ Made me happy. But I spent half an hour trying to track down one of the pictures that I used... because I've had it on my computer for a few days and silly me forgot


02/02/08--09:46: Journal #39 (chan 2066036)




Okay, so I start my second semester of grade 12 on Monday... >_> I'm kind of excited, and kind of angry. XD I'm excited because I finally have music again!!!! I have anthropology (combined with psychology & socialogy), then english, (lunch) graphics, and then music... but I'm kind of angry because the teacher that I wanted for english decided to drop the grade 12 one, so now I have a different teacher... who I've heard is really night, but marks hard. Which is good - because now I'll actually learn something. XD I didn't last year.. but I still wanted Mr. Champagne.. T-T He's so awesome. lol
Anyway, I figure I'll have more time to do the cha


04/01/08--20:02: Thanks! (chan 2066036)




Just a brief and very big thank-you to =Aestivall for featuring me in her journal! Thank you love! :heart: =D


~Reggy. <3


(I would just like to point out that I'm very shocked that I've been featured in someone's journal haha. <3 Thank you.)


04/09/08--20:01: -geek alert- (chan 2066036)




I definitely just freaked out. I found a song.. by a good band.. (the Weakerthans) and it's A SONG ABOUT CURLING!!!! I definitely FREAKED when I saw it! And I knew what it was about even before "Hurry! Hurry hard!".. >_> INSTANTLY at that point. I'm such a loser, but OH WELL. This is sweet...
If you know ANYTHING about curling, the majority of this will be IN YOUR FACE about it. lmfao XD Yeah.. >_> anyway. That's my little.. rant. lol I'm going to bed now. XD <3



Now the lounge is full of farmers
for the 7:30 draw.
Teammates all left before they had to buy a round.
When they pull the 50/50

05/01/08--19:37: another year! ^__^ (chan 2066036)




Well, in a few days, I'll be 18. WEWT. lol I'm really excited, 'cause it's my one-year with my bf, too... who got me a gorgeous promise ring. XD I love him. <3

I really should be putting more stuff up here... but it's not like I'm doing any good stuff in my graphics class... god I hate that stupid teacher. Well... I guess I COULD put up my book cover. Which apparently isn't very good and didn't fit the requirements that she never stated for us.... bitch. -sigh- I'll stop. Eventually. When she goes away. lol


I've had a sore back since Sunday night... finally went to the clinic, but they told me shit all. Aaaaand... I'm about to fall


06/13/08--22:11: 2000??!!??!! (chan 2066036)

I will definitely do a request for whoever catches it!!!!
^__^

TADA
NEW SWEET ASS COMPUTER!! -dances-
it's 24". lmfao I love it.


Reggy. <3


edit; soo... I'm not so sure I'm super excited right now. XD I can't get Photoshop installed on here, even though I have the MASSIVE urge to use the gigantic, beautiful screen to my advantage... I do feel like it's burning my eyes, though. XD but it's late and dark, so ... yeah. ANYWAY. Off to bed. ^__^ CIAO LUFFLIES. :heart:

Also, I... have started another work of art. ^__^ Oil, of course. And when I'm able to finally install the stupid thing for

Okay soooo... Stolen from =arrsistable which was stolen from ~Amuris. XD http://amuris.deviantart.com/journal/20567546/


Dear ~B-Chaind,

I don't really know how to tell you this, but our romance is over. I think I realized it on the first of May in your closet and I saw you carve your initials into my mustard soufflé. I'm sure you're ashamed enough to understand that there's no solution to this. I'm returning your ring to you, but I'll keep your neighbour Martin as a memory. You should also know that I told in my confession today about a new life as a clone.

Greetings to your freaky family,
Erin


Braddy... I love you. XD h


11/16/08--11:30: Congratz! (chan 2066036)

Congratulations to ~djzerious for catching my 3000th pageview!!! =D:heart:


Also, I'm going to see Great Big Sea LIVE on Tuesday!!!!!
I'M SO SUPER EXCITED!!! *dances* =D
I love GBS sooo much. :heart:


Holy unexpected feature Batman!!!

I got a feature!! In ~FadenBlade's journal - http://fadenblade.deviantart.com/journal/21384303/

It's on a really unexpected piece, too. Haha. One that I hope to make a few little changes to, to make it better.

12/07/08--10:41: Hmm.. (chan 2066036)




Sooo... I saw Twilight last night.

To be honest, I wasn't exactly excited to go see it. I had mixed feelings on how it would turn out. Which is exactly what happened. I didn't like Kristen Stewart as Bella. That was definitely not how I pictured Bella at all. To me, Bella had more... expressive feelings. Kristen seemed to have trouble doing many expressions. Billy Burke as Charlie seemed to be... a little too awkward, but I guess it would be.

On the other side, I am impressed with the Cullen family. Robert Pattinson did an amazing job with Edward's character. =) The others did a really good job portraying their characters as well. Ashle


12/17/08--15:59: Holiday time! (chan 2066036)




So I don't know about anyone else, but I'm super excited for the holidays!!!
Also for after the holidays!

I'm going with my friend to her mom's place the second weekend in January, so the weekend after classes start up again, and I'm getting a tattoo. XD
I'm really scared, but I'm pretty sure it'll hurt less than I think it will. XD I dunno. My brother has two... and he's a big wuss, so I think I'll be alright. XD Hahahaha... oh my poor brother, 3 years older, and still more immature. lol

But yeah! Exciting stuff. However I'm really excited... to sleep in. I haven't gotten much sleep lately, and sooo... that prospect is super exciting


01/16/09--18:36: Yikes. (chan 2066036)




So I've definitely been very inactive for the past... oh... month? XD
Wahoo! Mostly because I worked all Christmas break, and I've been "cramming" for exams the past two weeks.

Buuuuuut I did find out the weekend before Christmas that I GOT ACCEPTED INTO WLU FOR NEXT YEAR!!!! <3 <3 <3 <3

ALSO I GOT MY TATTOO LAST WEEKEND.

It looks awesome. Hurt like crazy, but I didn't expect it to be a walk in the park. XD
Well, maybe if you got attacked by some geese. Those geese are crazy. lol

I'll have to get some photos and upload them - however that requires a second person, which I don't have on hand at the moment, sooo... tha


02/05/09--17:55: OMG A SUB! (chan 2066036)




TADAZ! Reggikinz got a sub!

Sooooo I'm going to be fooling around with it this weekend, figuring everything out and hopefully I can get some nice stuffs on here!! YAYZ! :love:
Hopefully I'll get the css working properly... >_> I haven't done it in so long. XD I don't know if I'll be able to do it. lol I mayhaps have to find someone to help me. Hehehe... <3 So be patient as I experiment. =D

02/15/09--14:26: Happy Belated Valentine's Day! (chan 2066036)




lol So I missed it, but oh well. Sorry there wasn't a Valentine's manip from me - I got busy too close to the day. Maybe next year. lol

Anyway, I've found a CSS that I like, by 'ClaireJones. :hug:

I plan on making new images to go with it, but I figure that out when I have the time. =)
It's been a while since I've played around with CSS and html, but I'm sure I'll be able to figure it out. ;)


02/20/09--20:30: -sighs longingly- (chan 2066036)




I really really really want a tablet...

lol Seriously.




Now that I have a sub, I need to work on getting a tablet so that I can do more. >_> My mouse is crappy, so I don't want to use that. XD
Maybe someone will pick up the hint for my birthday... -COUGH- lol  Just kidding. ^________^

Anyway, my muse is currently failing me. Hopefully I'll be able to find it again soon.
Give it a little "pick-me-up" lol. XD


Love,
Reggy


02/25/09--13:59: Experimenting... (chan 2066036)

There we go. Nice CSS. I really like this one. I love puppies. =)
I'm also figuring some stuff out on my own, it's lovely. XD

A Possible Keeper
I'm hoping that this one sticks. =)
I quite like it. It has colour and pretty things lol, but is still simple enough to not be overwhelming.

So I've been accepted into the university of my choice! I'm really happy about it. However I am sick of totaling up costs and such, even more so of trying to get scholarships. XD It's not exactly a lot of fun. But I don't think it's meant to be. I really hope they don't decide to up uni/college costs by 25%... That would really suck.

02/27/09--17:19: Quick rant. (chan 2066036)




Death to Fandom
Okay, so I know that we all know about the growing fandom of Twilight... Frankly, it sickens me.
I really liked the books - not because they were well-written (because they weren't) but because of the story behind it.

Mind you... parts of that story, now that I look back on it, were kinda creepy.. lol However, I've always been one of those girls who dreamed of having a guy... kind of like that. An "out-of-this-world" kind of guy. =) One who was always there to save you and... was sooo much more attractive that you couldn't help but wonder what he saw in you. lol That kind of guy. XD

Mind you, I have the realistic form

Huzzah
Okay, so my 4000 pageview mark is coming up. =)
So whoever catches my 4000th pageview may request the making of a photomanipulation of their choice!

Nothing else really to say, other than I've started painting again, so I may put up some pictures when it's finished.
I love oil paints. :love:

Also, I'll be trying to get a photo or two of my tattoo to put up when I can find the time. =D

Help?
Alright, so my 4000th pageview is still coming.. lol so keep an eye out. =)

Anyway... So, I kind of need help. At my school, we're allowed to paint the ceiling tiles, if we get an idea approved by the art teacher.
I want to do one.
The big problem is... I don't have any ideas.


So I guess I'm asking... for ideas? XD PRETTY please? :heart: I would love you forever. =)

Huzzah
Remember to keep an eye out for my 4000th pageview!

Also, I'm really excited about dA's new contest! I've just entered the "Bring Your Vision to Life" contest, and even if I don't win anything, I'm just happy that it has gotten me to make another manip. XD I was getting tired of not having any muse... But my boyfriend was able to get me to be creative and I actually like the outcome! So a great big THANK YOU! to everyone who favs my work! :blowkiss::love:

On another note, I've decided what to do for my ceiling tile, and I'll... put it up once it's done. XD Lazy, I know. I'm still working on getting pics of my tattoo up as well.


04/14/09--19:26: Contest continues (chan 2066036)

Remember to keep an eye out for my 4000th pageview!

I still love you. :aww:

School's almost over... so I've been wrapped up in projects in the like for the past little while (which is why I haven't really be on at all)...
However, since it's almost over, that means that I will soon have more time to get on here! When I'm not out looking for a job, that is... lol

Hmm... I don't really know what else to say... I hope to have a bunch more 100 Chall


07/08/09--12:46: DONE!!! (chan 2066036)




I'm finally done school (a few weeks ago)... and have been working almost every day since... x__X
It's not too bad, I like the money, but I'm exhausted. lol
Also, it has left me no time to use PS as I would have liked to be doing... buuut... I'll eventually get time... I hope. XD

Anyway, I'm testing out new journal skins. Hopefully I can find one that I really like. =D


Ciao!

07/17/09--15:18: [nameless] (chan 2066036)




Hello everyone,

This shall be my nameless journal, because I have no idea what to call it. =)
Okay, sooo... first of all, I've recently become re-addicted to World of Warcraft... you can blame :iconsunlis:. XP lol
Uhm... I've been working a lot, and have been very very exhausted lately (still not quite sure why, my work shifts are fairly short).
As a result, I've not been on the computer a lot and I have also lost my desire for photoshop.. a little. Which is sad, really. =( It makes me sad, anyway. However, I've been trying to get back into drawing... so maybe there will be some up sometime soon. :dance:

I don't really know what else


08/19/09--09:21: *happy dance* (chan 2066036)




I'm super excited!!!!

I got my new iMac yesterday and it's up and working and it's GORGEOUS. :love:

Also... it means that I don't have Photoshop on it yet. I'll be getting the mac version soonish. I'll need to. lol =)
It shall be amazing. <3

The thing is... this keyboard is so tiny, it confuses me. Especially since the screen is huge. XD
I also had to go out and get a mousepad so that my mouse would work properly. So it's a puppy. lol

I've also discovered the True Blood series... and it's AWESOME. Similar to Twilight but a million times better. XD
I've ordered a shirt from dA! The red Flight one. lol I'm excited to get it. :


09/03/09--13:41: AAAAHHHH!!!! (chan 2066036)




Be sure to keep an eye out for my 4,567th pageview!!!!

So I'm going to the University of Waterloo this year for Arts and Business... And I'm moving into residence on MONDAY!!!!!
I'm really, really nervous and very, VERY excited!!!! So I might not be on again before I get settled in. Weird...


Also, I'm having problems with a shipment from dA.. and am having issues getting a response from the help team.
It's started making me very angry, since all I ordered was a single shirt, and it's been over 3 weeks since my order was shipped.

Has anyone else had this problem?
Mind you I live in Canada, but it still shouldn't be taking this lo


09/04/09--20:20: University Bound (chan 2066036)




Keep an eye out for my 4,567th pageview!!!

Sooo....

I GOT A FREAKIN' TABLET!!!!!!

My brother happened to have a small Wacom from when he was in college... but he doesn't like it, and doesn't use it too well, so he said I COULD HAVE IT!!!!!
I'm really excited! I haven't done a whole lot with it, and haven't had time to test it at a length, but I'll be able to, hopefully, when I move in on Monday!!!!

Well... after the first week. XD


I'm super excited/nervous out of my skin... o.o

I doubt I'll be sleeping much in the next couple of days... / half week. XD


Anyway, thought you guys would like to know that. =D

09/23/09--21:25: Uni!!!! lol (chan 2066036)




Watch out for my 4,567th pageview!!!!


Alriiiiight.
So I've been on... a little. Haven't had time to put anything together, though.
University is keeping me pretty busy. There's lots of reading for my classes, but it's a lot of fun. =D
I'm taking German, and I really like it even if I don't understand any of it really yet. XD

Uhm.. Yeah. So I've recently become addicted to FMA.. again.. lol
My school has a sharing hub.. so there's movies and music (and games XD) passed from person to person. It's really really fast, so it beats Limewire by a landslide. XDD
It's really sweet, and I've gotten lots of movies and TV episodes from it..


10/22/09--18:42: Contest!! (chan 2066036)




First of all keep an eye out for my 4,567th pageview!! IT'S CLOSE!!!

Okay! Sooo... I've been around a little bit lately. I have three more midterms (done by next Friday) and I have one tomorrow.. but I got tired of studying and decided to post a contest.. ish.

So I'm planning on starting up a new studio, but I've decided to buy a domain name!
The only problem is... I don't know what to call it.

lol It's a pretty big problem, all things considered. So I would like your help to figure out what I can call my studio. :)
I'll pick my favourites (I'm going to assume that I'll get lots and won't be able to pick, or will add in ones that I


10/30/09--16:40: Well that was lame. (chan 2066036)




Of course the person who catches my 4,567th pageview is :iconsunlis:.

That's pretty lame guys. And I know that someone else could've caught it.
My pageviews were going up really quickly until I hit about 4,550. lmao

How much do I suck that no one wants a photomanip by me? XD

Love you too, guys. lol




Anyway, I wrote my last midterm today. HUZZAH. I'm so glad. XD
Now it's OVER UNTIL DECEMBER. WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!


... Then I have to do it all over again. :(

11/02/09--11:16: Okay let's try this again, shall we? :) (chan 2066036)




Okay, since :iconsunlis: was the one to catch my 4,567th pageview... and I don't feel like doing anything for him right now (lol jk) I'm going to hold another one.

The person who catches my 5,000th pageview will get a personalized photomanip. I will do whatever they want, if it is within my own abilities. lol

Anyway, yeah. Keep an eye out, 'kay?

Thanks!!!

11/18/09--15:02: Project COMPLETE!!! 8D (chan 2066036)




Keep an eye out for my 5,000th pageview!!!!
(You will get a present if you catch it! *Remember to take a screen shot!!!!*)

So for my studio art class, we've been asked to do a "linear narrative" or a photo sequence project.
Now... I suck with trying to tell a story without words, so I was thinking about it and browsing dA and I came up with the idea of doing "The Seven Deadly Sins". Of course, I had to ask my prof if it would be okay, but she was totally fine with it.
So I started off thinking that I would do complete manipulations with stock (note the sloth image XD), when it occurred to me that I wouldn't have enough time to do 7 of t


11/26/09--22:35: Coming to the end (chan 2066036)




I still would like you guys to keep an eye out for my 5,000th pageview!!

Soooo it's coming to the end of term, so I have finals, obviously.

I'M SO EXCITED FOR CHRISTMAS BREAK! (I really need a break.. lol)

Since I have studio (drawing this term) I have a final project due. It's a life-size or larger self-portrait...
I hate drawing myself. lol

I have to depict myself with "something you would NEVER wear/do". So I have a cigarette in my hand. lol I have never smoked, never will. That includes anything illegal. (oh, the cigarette is in one of those holders.. haha, I love those things. XD They LOOK classy. But are not. lol)

12/18/09--15:41: Oh the Holiday season.. (chan 2066036)




Keep an eye out for my 5,000th pageview!!!

So anyway, school is over and done with for this term. I got home Wednesday night and have been out and about since. I have a shitload of stuff to do - I'm making my Christmas presents instead of buying, because A) it's more thoughtful, and B ) I have no money. lol
Soo... yeah. :)

I finished my self-portrait... it's not fantastic, especially the quality of the photo (it's a little blurry...) but it's pretty good. I'll be finding out on the 23rd what my mark in the course was, so .. yeah. Stellar.

Unfortunately, to ring in the Holiday season, I have a funeral to attend. My Grandma passed awa


12/24/09--10:29: The Eve of HAPPINESS (chan 2066036)




Keep an eye out for my 5,000th!!!

That's right. It's Christmas Eve. =D

Also, I gave/received a year (technically two years) subscription!!! From/To :iconsunlis:!! :love: I send my love. lol
I should be able to get something up after Boxing Day when I get home. I'm going to spend Christmas at my grandparents' place and we'll be back on Boxing Day.. ish. lol

^________^


I hope everyone has a SUPER happy holiday - have a happy celebration for whatever you celebrate!!! :love: :tighthug:

Love,
Erin xoxo


12/29/09--08:31: Getting close! (chan 2066036)




We're getting really close to my 5,000th pageview!!!

So keep an eye out! I'll be doing a personalized manip or drawing or something for whoever catches it. :love:

Also, I hope everyone had a very merry Christmas, or if you don't celebrate Christmas, then a very happy holiday. :aww: Mine was pretty great. I got the external hard drive I need so that I don't lose my files again... ^^'

Also, I have joined a few groups, as you can see below. ^__________^

:thumb91729670: has been getting a lot of goodness! Lots of faves and good comments. :heart: I'm so happy! :dance:


Anyway, I'm hoping to get one or two manips done this week. Wi


01/06/10--17:43: 2010!!! (chan 2066036)




Happy belated New Year everyone!!!!

I have to say that I'm getting SUPER CLOSE TO MY 5,000TH PAGEVIEW!!!
I'll do a special something-something for whoever catches it. :love: So keep an eye out! ^______^

I don't have a whole lot to say, I suppose. Just wanted to wish everyone a happy 2010 - hope it's better than 2009!!!

School has started up again - interesting term I have.
Painting this term, instead of drawing like I had last term. Working a lot with acrylics... acrylics don't like me. And I return that feeling. XD They're too hard to blend because they dry too quickly... :( I prefer oils, but we're not working with oil paints thi


01/09/10--19:37: 5K!!!!! (chan 2066036)




Yay! So I was fortunate enough to have 2 people catch my 5K!

:iconcharkycoalie: and :iconpickletoez: !!

Congrats! And THANK YOU! :love:
I send my love. ^____^

I'm trying to get back into photomanipulation for this year... It's almost Jan 10,  and I still haven't done one! lol
I'm getting on it, don't worry. =P

Thanks again, to you both! And thanks to everyone who was trying as well!!! I wish you luck in the future. ;)
I'll be holding one ever 1K until 10K lol. :la:

01/29/10--12:48: Anyone like to RP??? (chan 2066036)




Soooo.. here's the thing. I REstarted my old RPG Libre. It ended up dying out about 2 years ago, but a friend of mine was really excited to start up a new RPG. She started talking to me about it, I mentioned Libre (because I still had the website and everything) and so we decided to makeover Libre and bring it back to life!

The only problem is... we only have 4 members and 6 characters. lol So we need more people. If you're interested in that kind of thing, it's a wild horse RPG tainted with a tiny bit of magic which will play a larger part once we get it more active.

Libre v9.0: Rebirth

And for those of you who have noticed, yes, th


05/05/10--08:53: OMG 2 DECADESSSS!!!~ (chan 2066036)




Wow guys... I turn 20 today. I'm old.

LOL I'm just kidding. I do feel old, though... it kinda sucks. But that mostly has to do with work and the fact that my feet are killing be because I'm not used to standing for 5+ hours straight... o__O Ew. lol

Anyway!! Soooo I turn 20. That's spectacular, isn't it? Two whole decades old. Wow... I'm a fifth of a century old, guys. LOL

But yess!!! My RPG Libre (link at the top of the journal) is growing nicely, but everyone seems to have grown inactive lately... especially me.. XD

HOWEVER I'M STARTING WORK ON A WEBSITE. It's for my aunt and it's barely started, but I think it looks pretty good


07/26/10--11:40: Summer (chan 2066036)




Keep and eye out for my 6,000th pageview!!! First person to spot it will get a personalized manip or sketch from yours truly. :)

Well my summer is just FLYING by. But I've been having so much fun that the fact that I have no money to go to school with is just a suppressed emotion waiting to crack!!! lol... Well at least I'm getting a few more hours at work now.

FINALLY, A SUBMISSION!!!!! I'm so sorry that I haven't submitted in such a long time, but I've been trying to keep myself busy, which means I'm hardly ever home. I still come around often, checking my messages and such every once in a while, and I still love this place. <3 I'v


08/03/10--11:50: Commissions??? (chan 2066036)




I've been thinking about starting up tattoo design commissions. I've done a few for myself and a few for others and for fun... Not many of them are up here, but they've been TONS of fun to draw. I just completed this one http://a.imageshack.us/img826/5821/celtictaurus.jpg for my friend John and I'm in the process of doing these two for other friends: http://a.imageshack.us/img134/1613/dolphin1j.jpg http://a.imageshack.us/img412/4449/bee2small.jpg ... I never realized how much fun I had doing these. XD

However I don't know how many people would actually WANT tattoos from me... XD But I guess it's worth a shot? They'd probably be something l


08/09/10--08:57: SO CLOSE!!! (chan 2066036)




Ten more pageviews until 6,000 guys!!!!!!!!!!!

AH! So excited. =D Remember to screen shot it! You'll get a free... image? Photomanipulation or sketch. =D



Love you guys!
Erin


PS - I've decided to start doing commissions for tattoos. I've started doing a bunch for friends anyway. XD

:bulletorange: $10 for simple designs
:bulletorange: $20 for more complex designs

It depends on how hard I deem it to be. lol


09/26/10--20:38: Death by school. (chan 2066036)




So sorry I haven't been on .... at all, pretty much. I've been really really busy with school the past few weeks but it's been so much fun.

Recently I've become RE-addicted to House in my little bits of spare time. lol... :love:
I love Hugh Laurie, I have a not-so-secret huge crush on him. :D
Also... I've become addicted to Starcraft 2... *guiltypleasure*

I haven't even gotten around to my kiriban prize! *dies*
Which was caught by :devislua:, by the way!
Apologies!! Will be getting around to it soontimes, I promise. :3

Anyway, as it goes I'm still going to do tattoo designs if anyone feels the want to ask for it, same prices but


02/07/11--16:35: 5 moar!!! (chan 2066036)




5 more pageviews to the kiriban, guys!!! <3

Sorry I've been MIA, but I will do something for whoever catches 6,789! :)

Cheers,
Erin


02/15/11--14:06: Kiriban! :) (chan 2066036)




Soooo I wanted someone to catch my kiriban - and I got two! :D

Congrats to :iconnaturally-canadian: and :iconadverbial-spectra: BOTH for catching my 6,789 pageview!
You will both get something special. ;)


Next kiriban at 7,000! :)

06/21/11--08:39: Still alive, I promise (chan 2066036)




I know I've been kind of absent for a while, but I am still alive. ;)

I've been catching up on commissions and stuff - most of which has been done off of dA. I've done a (simple) website and 3 tattoo designs for others... and one for myself. =D I'm hoping to get it done either around Christmas time, or at the end of next summer.

ANYWAY, I've been starting to work on the kiribans! Yay! lol Those are next on my list and I'm hoping to finish them soon, but I have midterms and projects that are due in the next few weeks, so it'll probably be a bit longer before I can actually finish them... ^^'

My internet went out a few days ago for sev


08/03/11--21:09: Rising From the Dead? (chan 2066036)




No no. I'm not dead... Wasn't dead either. Just quite, I promise. ;)

I have submitted some stuff, but most of it has been slow going. I'm just hitting the beginning of exams tomorrow, so I've been studying, visiting home, studying, drawing, studying.... and mostly procrastinating. lol

Anyway, I still have one kiriban left to finish for :iconnaturally-canadian:!!! Which I've been conjuring up ideas for, but haven't started on it yet. After exams, I'm moving into a new place, but I promise that I will start on it by the end of the month. =D
I know, I'm great, right? lol These have been on my list since... February? I've needed to conjure
