WHAT A GREAT DAY! <3
Art and friends and picnic in the sun near the water. Then pokeball cupcakes and Tangled and nostalgia. <3

Thanks you lovely ladies who made this day as lovely as each of you! :D

And now I intensely want to make a costume for AN, since I always feel so out of the loop when I DON'T have one. :/ Nothing fancy but...
I am seriously considering Ioryogi since it's simple and adaptable. I don't know what it is with me and CLAMP creatures, yo. :P

Tomorrow we go around Old Montreal and talk about sewers. \0/

I haz a sad today, what with upsetting things happening left and right. I am fine myself, but it does get me down, y'know?

Here are some things that make me feel better.

KNIFE by Yuumei . A gorgeous webcomic

Magnolia Wine by Charlene Kaye
Because she is my inspiration right now.

So apparently we are incapable, as a species, to walk in a straight line.

Mathematically correct breakfast

No post is complete without some Hark! A Vagrant

Share some of yours? <3

Hi all!!

First off, HOUSEKEEPING ANNOUNCEMENTS:

I have decided to furthermore attempt to crosspost all my posts from DW.
Don't worry though, I don't plan on leaving LJ any time soon as most of my fannish activity is still based here. But I really support DW as a platform, and what with the recent shenanigans Lj just pulled, it's good incentive for me to get in gear and establish my DW a bit more.
So. My Dreamwidth is Lunatique for those of you who wish to add me there.

Also, in light of the recent LJ shenanigans, I wish to make clear the following (even if I'm sure all you sensible people know and understand this already.)

++ Please do not cross-post any comments made on my journal or linking to my journal in any capacity on Facebook/Twitter! Thank you!++


Life has been pretty busy in Yue-land~ I went down to Ontario to visit a friend after coming back from BC, and ended up staying a bit longer than expected. Then said friend came to Montreal with me and stayed over for a few days while she settled appartment stuff.

And then there were the most excellent guests staying at [personal profile] frigg's place. Lots of fannish fun was had.

Now school has started, and so has my job. My classes are very interesting so I'm super excited~ Plus I actually get to be in the same class as friends this year. \0/
The job is very simple, and I am basically paid to do... not very much at all, which is stupidly exhausting in a certain way. But I'm not complaining. Once schoolwork gets busier, I'll appreciate the time to work on homework.

I have a million things to draw and YES I AM AWARE how extremely extremely bad I am with owing people pics. I am slowly but surely making my way through the list. Fear not, I have not forgotten. I can only beg for forgiveness for the extreme lateness. *flops all over floor*
m=_=m

In other news, BBC Sherlock has eaten my brain. More fannish updates to come.

Cheers! <3

Fanart Prompt Fest

The new Merlin Big Bang has started over at [livejournal.com profile] paperlegends.

As a non fandom-specific challenge, the Ladies Big Bang over at DW is a FANTASTIC Big Bang, focused on any and all female characters, and accepting submission in the most comprehensive array of mediums I have yet encountered in any fannish endeavour. Kudos to them! I am not officially signed up, but I think I shall be doing something for it!

I just spent all weekend being OUT and SOCIAL. It feels good but it's exhausting!

In other news, I have been most bemusedly following the storm of BS that has resulted from Diana Gabaldon's blog post about fanfic. /0\ I'm embarrassed on her behalf. :/
Thank you [livejournal.com profile] animeartistjo for linking this~

Update on life!

Life has been... strange these past few days, and I'm feeling anxious and restless and a little panicky when I start thinking about certain things. Maybe i should start by making a list.

FAMILY
The Aunt and Cousin visiting from Belgium stayed an extra week due to Volcano. It was nice to have them over, but despite being the pleasant&easy-to-live-with breed of relatives, it's soo glad they're finally gone.

SKOOL STUFFZ
All things considered, I'm happy about my grades. )

FANDOM
I've picked up the Maximum Ride series by James Patterson in a fit of solidarity because my bro seems to finally have taken interest in a book series and is reading it. So the least I can do it read it with him and discuss it with him.
It's not the greatest books ever written and it has its share of plotholes and flaws, but I'm really enjoying reading them. I really wish the author explored some promising aspects more and now I desperately want fanfic!! /0\

SUMMER
What Am I doing this summer? The hundred dollar question.
On one hand, I want to find a job and save up some money this summer. On the other I just want OUT of here, no matter where I go. I signed up for WWOOF and that's all swell, but my problem is the month of May.
I figured I could go to BC for the month, WWOOF somewhere, come back to the east for AN on the last weekend of May, then get a job. But tickets to BC are not cheap, and it seems like such a waste to stay there only one month (barely 3 weeks). I considered cancelling on AN and just staying on the West Coast and WWOOFing my way around until July-ish. But I don't want to cancel the one occasion I plan for every year to go and have some fun with friends.
I just don't know what to do. :/

Sorry guys, I'm really rambly today and sort of panicky, but things will get sorted out. I just gotta get into gear and stop hiding.
lunatique: (Default)
I just had a panic attack yesterday because I realized my application for Specialization in due IN 10 DAYS *BREATHEBREATHE* sahjkadsjkhjkdas D8

On the other hand, running into some old friends yesterday made me really melancholy and frustrated at myself for not doing more social things with my friends >_<
SO! To remedy to that:
+Seeing The vagina Monologues with [livejournal.com profile] transientkarma tomorrow \0/
+Going to the MAC with [livejournal.com profile] pseudo_geek on monday and getting tickets for Huis Clos
+WHO WANTS TO COME SEE TIFFANY WITH MEEEE!!!????? I'm willing to split the cost of your ticket cause I got mine for free ;_; ~
lunatique: (clamp rips eyes)
:O So like the not-so-bad version of my worst fear kinda came true today. LET ME EXPLAIN! It's really not THAT bad.

Yesterday in Ceramics, the teacher showed us how to make slabs and built with them. He demonstrated with the downstairs slab roller because the one in the classroom was malfunctioning, and they operate differently anyway.
Part of our assignement was to prepare some leatherhard slabs for next class.
So I go in to the studio today to work on my stuff, and there's one other girl in the lab, so we get chatting. I decide I really don't want to go roll my slabs downstairs in the small claustrophobic room all alone. So I decide to try and use the upstairs slab roller, which got kinda repaired during the class. I got the other girl, whom I have seem operate this roller, to show me.
:/
This thing, as opposed to normal slab rollers, only roll one way.
There was inattention and lack of communication on both our parts cause i was still arranging the canvas when she started rolling.
So my right index finger got caught in it.
And since this thing DOESN'T ROLL BACK, I had to wrench it out. That stuff is sanded, man.

Needless to say I panicked for a couple of seconds cause THAT HURT and IT DOESN'T ROLL BACK and hkhdka sdahslkskad I NEED THIS FINGER.
Some of the skin has been scrapped of, but apart for that, I think my finger is still structurally sound. It's moving and all.
It's been throbbing ever since tho. I feel no pain, and i have sensation in that finger, but it feels like the circulation isn't great. You know like when you have something wound way too tight over it? Is that normal? :/ I figure it'd bruise and all.

I felt really dizzy and nauseous for a little while after the initial pain subsided, but the other girl stayed with me and got be bandaged and stuff. She was really sweet and feels guilty, and I kinda feel bad cause it's really not her fault. :/ *hugs her*

SO YEAH. MY WORST FEAR IS OF COURSE LOOSING PROPER USAGE OF MY RIGHT HAND. That's why table saws and other woodshop tools scare the hell out of me. At least, it was only a roller. :/ Stupid dangerous unidirectional roller... >_>

But i'm fine. I got more scared than actually hurt... (is there an expression like that in english? I french it's Avoir plus peur que mal.)

I need to stop thinking about what could have happened if my hand had been cuaght furthe dasjd hask dh ok not thinking about that. Shit.

/rant

Sorry for the whiny post. I needed to get that off my chest. :/

HOLY SHIT! holyshitholyshitholyshit

Sorry, i usually don't swear but.....O______________O

I went out to fabric shop, but instead i found this:

Photobucket

ONYX DIALGA + PALKIA LIMITED EDITION DS LITE!!!!!!!!!!!
FOR 99.99$ + TX = ~113$

dlkajsdlkajslkdjas djasklf .jsdklfjKASLJDKSALJ DSAKL FJSAl
ITS SOO SHINY. AND SEXY. BWAHAHHAHAHAHAHA ALSO CHEAP. lkdjaldj

me: *points to $99.99 price tag* That's for the actual DS console, right? not the... case and accessories... *gestures vaguely*
service dude: yeah.
me: *points to shiny pokemon box* And that one? how much is it?
service dude: 99$.
me:
Photobucket

So... how does this R4/Supercard business work?
lunatique: (buchou approved)
SEWING MACHINE GET-OH!!! 8DDDD
Nothing too fancy, but i still have to figure out exactly how to trigger the proper settings ;____;
Shall I bring it along, [livejournal.com profile] hamano_ayumi?? You'll probably have to teach me how to use it properly....
---------------------

In other news, I MIGHT be getting a part-time teaching job at a summer school/camp starting next week. Its not as great as it sounds though, and i am completely unmotivated by it, not to mention it'll drastically cut my drawing time. I'd have to rush for Otakuthon. D8 But at this point it's still a MIGHT, so we'll see. Anything that gives me this kind of anxiety can't be good. O_O

Truth is, a friend of my Dad's is running the school/camp, and the impression I get is that he mainly means for me to be a general help-out staff, all the while i'll get the 1:00-2:30pm slot to teach kids art-ish things to vary their program. No prior meetings, no intro the the school, no request to go over lesson plans, just two phone calls. Classes are scheduled to start tomorrow.
I CAN HAS ADVANCE WARNING PLZKTHX?? Also, Don't you care at all about meeting me beforehand? YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT I LOOK LIKE!
I told him i could start next week if he still wants help, part time 1:00-4:30pm.

On the plus side, experience points and monnies...
/rant + anxiety attack
--------------------

Anyhow, here's my estimated lineup for the things i'm going to be selling at Otakuthon: Mostly for me to keep up with how much i have left to do.

+ Digimon bookmarks (3 designs)
Sketch [100%] . Color [100%] . Final Design [100%] - DONE

+ Phoenix Wright postcards? (4 designs)
Sketch [100%] . Color [100%] . Final Design [0%] - 80% finished

SEWING SLEEPOVER PARTY AT [livejournal.com profile] hamano_ayumi's tomorrow and day after!!! ^0^//~~
lunatique: (clamp rips eyes)
Dear Life,

Today, i officially fail at living you.

It starts this morning, when i somehow COMPLETELY FORGET that i planned to meet up with [livejournal.com profile] ryu_falconis at 1pm in Chinatown. My brain didn't register the Saturday part of this day... O-O So i'm going about my business, until 1:30pm when she calls.
Photobucket
At this point i GO CHECK Whompy's page to confirm about the show. I just fail to notice that June 6 =/= Today T__T

So i run out of the house and of course get there late. D8
Photobucket
And since i haven't eaten, i get some food at the bubble tea place(not recommended).
We chat and [livejournal.com profile] betsyli joins us some time later. There a lot of oogling at shiny CHisu!macbook~ 8D

I needed to leave at 5pm, so i go pay BUT FORGET THAT I CONSUMED FOOD. I pay for my bubble tea, and when the waiter asks me if there's anything else i shrug and say no (duh, i don't ever get anything other than bubble tea, right?... right?)
Photobucket
;_________; I only remembered 15 minutes after i left... [livejournal.com profile] ryu_falconis and [livejournal.com profile] bestyli would have had to pay for me. T_____________________________T I can't believe myself.
I'M SOO SORRY GIRLS!!! T-T I'LL PAY YOU BACK ASAP!!!!!!! ~~~

Anyway, I'm all excited because i firmly believed that Whompy would be at Indigo at 7pm. I set off to find Amy at her workplace since she isn't answering her phone, get all excited at her, and get my suspicion confirmed that no, she can't come. D8
That's ok, i'll take pictures for her, i figure, and set off to Indigo... to find NO SIGN that there'd be any kind of event. Strange.... So I run to Chapters just to check, and STILL NO SIGN.
Photobucket

At this point I'm calling up [livejournal.com profile] acidraiin frantically, since she's the one who got the news to me in the first place. She confirms she sent that text message YESTERDAY, and that we are, in fact, JUNE 7th.
T__________________T

Photobucket
I AM MADE OF FAIL TODAY!!

I then wander back to Amy and cling to her for the rest of the evening. D8 Thanks for making everything better [livejournal.com profile] carrot_rice!!!!!

Something scary happened on the way home. These two guys in the same wagon than me were fighting, and one of them suddenly pulls out this huge knife. Thankfully, we were still in the station, so most people quickly got off. The two guys ended up getting off and running upstairs, but one of them had a lot of blood on his neck o.O eeeps~~ WHERE WAS SECURITY WHEN THIS HAPPENED?!! There's usually everywhere ._. except when you need them....
What a scare... >_<

So today, I learned:
1- To be aware of today's date. BEFORE getting excited about upcoming events. They may just have happened yesterday.
2- To not forget when you go out and buy a meal. Because, i mean, YOU HAVE BOUGHT A MEAL, HELLO!
3- That heat might just boiling my brain. I need to do something mentally stimulating, else my brain completely rot.
4- That I have the best, most forgiving friends in the world~ ♥ ;__;

Doodles done while waiting for Amy to get off work, plz forgive crapiness. :P

Rant about road trip

I've been to Inner Mongolia these past days. Grasslands are wonderful *_* I didn't want to come back!!>_< The people are really nice too!! We went spent a whole day out in the mountains in the unpredictable weather (2 bouts of sunshine and 3 storms in 1 day). Out there are all field and little villages of earthen houses...>_< It's soo very poor, but very traditionnal *__* We really got to see how people outside of great cities lived...
I wonder how it feels like to grow up in the midst of sheep and cow herds, in field and mountains with only the bare necessity to live for...

Everyone should go to the Inner Mongolian Grasslands once in their lives!!! xOOO go drink milk tea omg...*drool*
_____________________________________________
Rant about worries

I'm soo unsettled these days cause i'm worried i can't get back to canada in time for start of term .___. My plane ticket is for the 22nd, but term starts 21st X___X Because soo many people want to change tickets these days it's really hard to get an earlier ticket...I have to call them all the time to see if someone cancelled. ;____; I really really hope i get a ticket home sooner...I am hurrying to finish shopping so that i can leave on short notice ... I made a LOTS of progress today!!^_^ Just the CDS left to get~ :D
