Team Dreamcatcher's Haruhi dance!!! (I'm Yuki, the one on the left) http://www.asosbrigade.com/ or http://one.revver.com/watch/234304

Also check out Dreamcatcher's website at http://www.ajii.us! If you've ever been interested in voice acting, here is your chance to join our workshops!

OMG it was so much fun. after dancing on stage I couldn't stop singing the song. LOL...

4:42AM

Relay for Life Donation Page

I'm doing Relay for Life again this year and I want to make more of an effort then I did the year before.

Please check out my page, I think the girl on the top kinda looks like me if i was darker skin~ and had Roger's nose XD

Even if you can only donate a dollar, you'll help makes a difference  ^^

4:47PM - Hair cut, take 2!

http://nightflower84.livejournal.com/49240.html

Sorry for the delay!!! (had to figure out how to upload to my site, lol)

I'll delete this post after a few days so please comment on the other post!!!

11:38PM - New hair cut!

I have a new hair style, shoulder length with layers. I LOVE IT!

still getting used to the fact I can't pull it back to a pony tail ^^;

11:56AM - panties

LOL. Chris gave me panties in my LJ info.

I don't know what to update anymore so um...

My cousin in Taiwan is married and is having a baby soon.

So is Chris's 1/2 sister and cousin having babies... his step sister's daugher is a year and half now.

I'm looking forward to having a child of my own someday too~ And I know that it'll make me happy to watch my kids grow up and become successful at whatever they do.


Then again I want to also look into a few college corses (buisness, and a sewing class) and starting my own little store of asian goods and drawing during my free time at my store. selling artwork of my own and friend's artworks. Creating wearable every day clothing that I could say "I created that look" but not nessisarily fashion... Just cute designs on shirts or something. and even working at Lowe's I get idea's for home decor that is anime related, ALL the time! (x_x)...

Chris thinks I wont like working every day at a job like that... But I see it as a creative place I could grow at. It reminds me when I was younger and I'd be going to the fairs or with my mom at the booth selling jewlery or dolls.. or even the chinese medicen balls that I practiced every day on till I showed off to customers how fun it was to use the product. XD

It may be a way for me to take my creativity and changing it from a hobby into something I could actually make money at. As long as I don't have video games at work, I wouldn't have so many distractions like at home. ^^;

Ok there, I thought of stuff. You're up to date. LOL

12:20PM - Can't log into hotmail.

I can't log into hotmail and the interenet is going incredibly slow. I should of left the house 15 minutes ago ~_~; but not being able to log onto my main e-mail account is bothering me.

besides the fact that I don't give anyone my xiao_fang823@hotmail.com just because the name is just too darn hard to explain or miss-type that I basicly use it as a junk e-mail box. except for the fact that family members and some older friends still use the address. So I keep it around.

OMG, I tried to change my pw twice and the question for the guess pw is "BBQ Sause" (WTH) I think I put that down just to have something there to create my account.. but what the hell I don't know what the answer is to that.

so i did the send the e-mail to alternet address and thank god it went to my nightflower84@gmail.com. but now it still doesn't log me in. So I hope that maybe it just needs a little time and I can log in soon.

Anyone else having Hotmail problems?

Christopher I looked up some kind of german site i think off of google since i wanted to know what the song "Blumchen - Herz an Herz" was (off of Evil monkey sean's LJ) and got a site with annoying pop ups.
(OMG!!!) There were 31 problems, Omniture had 16 of the same thing in the computer!!! Ok so your computer should be working better now but I hope the hotmail thing gets fixed ~_~;

I passed my drive with a 86%!!!

It's time to celebrate!

But really, I just want to relax at home and eat something good. ^__^

I wish it was a sunny day, I want to drive the dogs to a park~

WOOOOOOOO!!!! I PASSED~!!!!!!!!!!!

5:25PM - Passed the written!!!

I PASSED MY WRITTEN TEST!!!

Drive test on the 20th!

11:30PM - DS Surfs Web in July...in Japan.

http://www.gamespot.com/news/6153016.html

Gosh, This would be crazy if this came out in the US. I could map quest, possably save it, and then not have to write any bad directions on paper again!

8:41PM - Drawing update.

I've been drawing lots of silly things at home.

I can't get the feel for a pencel for drawing like I used to. and... I CAN'T FIND MY PENCELS! /cry
So all I do now is draw with pen which is annoying when trying to draw new things and experement. Oh well.

here are some practice drawings, and I want to focus on bodies more, but I'll have more time tomorrow. for now, chibis and crazy expressions!

Enjoy. ^^

my entree for the Sakura con 2005 (for the 2007) Mascot contest! and I didn't win. no biggie! other entrees can be found at www.Sakuracon.org

and tons of stuff in my scrap gallery.

5:20PM - Sakura-Con, DreamCatchers, Para Para...

I had a nice wonderful update and I accidently hit the backspace butten on the mouse >.< (doh)

That's ok though here I go again!

Sakura con was GREAT! Had such a good time, and time went by faster then I wanted it to (the way it goes every year at the con ^^; )

Dave Vincent is such a nice guy and made my job as guest liason much easier then I had originaly expected. (this time being a liason alone had me scared ^^; )
And as for next year being a guest liason I will be more confident! ^^

Sadly for Dreamcatcher's (voice acting studio/workshop) I can't aford to go anymore, my time or money. Since my work requires my weekends to be free and flexable (full time yay!), so unless workshops are on weekdays or something, I could work out a constant day off on a week day to go to a class/workshop. AND if I can aford it after seeing how much full time will be increasing my paycheck.
BUDGETING SUCKS! But, for now I will do as much practicing at home as possable in the voice acting field. I would like to make my own flash animation and hopefully update my website (which is collecting dust right now ^^; my poor site...) and anything else I can voice act with and show off somewhere.

So many idea's and plans are in my head right now.

- Para-Para Dancer
Para Para has become popular again! And again this year people complemented me (omg that makes me happy to get complements <3 ) on my Para-ing on the machine. I went to the Para-Para panel (an hour late) and felt outcasted... but... it's ok, I still love the style of dance. If I had the chance to be a Para-list and compete or create dance videos to new songs (or old) I would LOVE it. To dance with other people with the same feelings towards the style of dance and everyone syncranized to the rythm of the song... ^____^ Yeah, it'd be awesome!!!!!!!! <3

- Manga/Anime arist
I have a slow project in the works, Manga style in the style of Japanese animation style artwork, but in the American style of reading comics. I've developed a good sence of my own style in Chibi format, but as for my seriouse style of artwork I still need lots of work... and since it's a seriouse story I need to be happy with the style I choose for it. until then... I wont be publishing it online ^^;

- Picking up the violin again

- FFXI character to PLD 75... LOL not gonna happen for another couple years I'm sure.. (T_T)

- in the art department of things, cards and creative things with my art also came up in my head like...
*Sewing, and creating outfits or cute designs for clothing.

as well as continuing voice acting...

But all in all, I just need to focus on one thing this month... that i've put off for years...

my licence (T_T)
Wish me luck. There are so many scary drivers on the road.. And I will be one of them. (>.<)

3:58PM - Random drawing doodle guy...

So I drew this at work for a girl who is learning to draw faces/people! Drew it little over a month ago, scaned it for a copy for myself, then forgot where in the house it disapeared to (dang.)... So, here I am showing it off and hopefully I can find it for her so she can have it ^^; 

Sakura con for me starts tomorrow morning, waking up at a nice 5am! ^^ I'll be getting early sleep tonight... which will be hard to do... I CAN'T WAIT FOR TOMORROW!!! X3


This will be my last entree until whenever I feel like updating next. Hope everyone has a fun weekend!!!

12:26AM - Deviantartness

http://www.deviantart.com/view/29626210/

Wow, I'd love to have Adobe Photoshop CS2... this tutorial is very nice!

Now to get back into my art again. I need to update my sketches since I havn't been able to draw seriously ^^;

3:54PM - FFXI names.

It's funny to see names of people in game that you know IRL but know they aren't them cause they're sitting in the same room as you...

Names I've seen in FFXI... (Bahamat and Unicorn servers)

Roger (Bahamut)
Chris (Unicorn)
Chrisanne (I'm not joking, I seriously wanna talk to this person on Unicorn but they were -away- status)
Wen (OMG wen! the character was Hume, and blond. made me think of Ete ^^)
Vince (Unicorn)
Sataya (Bahamut: but this person I know and they used their name, lol)

Unicorn: My PLD is level 4! ^^

Bahamut: I made it to level 53 MNK!!! and Kyata helped me get my AF2 ^______^ Yay! (lev 52 foot armor!)

________________+++++++++++++++++++__________________++++++++++++++++++++_______________

In other news, my job is cutting hours... but I need at least 25 or more hours (perferably 35 - 40's range) or else I can't make my bills. Anyone know of jobs in my area that are looking for good employees? I'll be picking up applications soon. Or I can change my avalability to work mornings at my current job and scedueled evening/nights at another job.

now to get ready for work~

8:19AM - FFXI FAN FESTIVAL

~`*~`*~`*FFXI FAN FESTIVAL~`*~`*~`*

It's just before Sakura con... and I have no $ to spend on extra things...

Infact I still need to buy my con ticket ^^;

Still can't wait for Anime Fusion Tour but OMG................. FFXI Festival!!!!!!!!! (T_T)

8:41AM - Guerilla Mind Society

from http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6117507/:

Even though metal style music isn't in at the moment I love to go see Seattle's "Guerilla Mind Society"...they blend melody with mosh style heavy hitting rock/metal, the kind that makes you think. With two Japanese members (brother and sister)and American front man and drummer, they have a dynamic thing that makes even ME, (not a really big "metal" fan) rock out and bang my head!!! They are activists of the non-sheeple and their lyrics are smart and deep. They are very moving to see. —Julie Aerts, Seattle, Washington
