REMEMBER TO UPDATE. *headdesk*
Haaaaaaai Gaaaaaaaiz? Err, how are ya? Doing well during this holiday season I hope XD;;;
Yeah ok ok I suck at remember to type out carp for this journal >>;; What can I say? I have an uneventful boring life. :| Welcome to my world.
But! Hopefully it won't be too uneventful (in a good way) this coming year! So as my first resolution to fulfill, I'll try to remember to update this journal more often with something to say or at least a doodle with-
MY BRAND NEW TABLET!!!!!!!!!!!!1!
DUDE SERIOUSLY! I GOT A TABLET FOR CHRISTMAS FROM MY PARENTS! *seizurez* Its the best thing ever! And my tablet and I have a blood-bond also. I'll explain about that XD;;
*cue flashback to how I got tablet*
I think I nearly died from lack of oxygen when I opened the box LOL But it wasn't an easy present to open. If my guess is right, my Dad was the one who packaged the tablet in the box and mailed it to me. True it was all the edges and corners that were DUCT-TAPED but that's not even the funny part lol
At first I had just finished washing my hair and drying it when I noticed a man in a van driving slowly down my street with his door open. I noticed from his uniform that he was from the post office. My roommate told me that they were expecting a package, so when he stopped and headed to the door I figured it was for them, except it was addressed to me. I was kinda confused because my Dad had said 2 days earlier that he was gonna mail me a package of rice krispies and cookies for me and I was super excited! I just didn't think he'd mail it in 2 day delivery, insured and with a signature required. I thought that was a bit much for COOKIES!?
Either way I brought it in and tried to open it with my scissors. Now here's where it gets awkwardly stoopit. Before using the scissors I thought to myself "I might cut myself if I do it like this, I'll do it like this instead..." but apparently the other way was just as dangerous *headdesk* So I cut my thumb in the process of trying to open the box. Mad, I yelled at the box that I'd deal with it after I ate my waffles. After I finished my waffles I went back and opened the box this time without hurting myself again *w00t* But to my surprise it didn't look like cookies. It looked like a large black slender shoe box and 2 words in white popped out at me from the corner of my eye... "pen tablet". SAY WUT!? O_O
I screamed frantically and turned to Jun, my dog, (he was the only person in the house at the time) squealing excitedly that I got a tablet!!! I will admit, I was sad that it wasn't cookies but I guess I'll get over it *tear* And it took me a bit to get the tablet box, that fit so snuggly inside the package, out and I almost started to wonder if it was going to be empty with a lil note saying... "IF YOU WANT YOUR TABLET YOU'LL COME DOWN AND VISIT YOUR FAMILY FOR THE HOLIDAY. kthnxbai lurv Mommi & Daddi" Which I could totally see them doing. >>; Haha...ha.
Well my roommate Bek came in from work as I was getting ready to open it up to pet and I ran out of my room jumping and squealing and she just looked at me terrified and started to ask what was wrong. She probably thought I had seen a spider... Which is usually the same reaction I do when I see one so you can't blame her. I told her I got my dream tablet in the mail from my parents and I was so happy! She said she wasn't sure what was better, how her fiance doesn't do anything when he gets a gift or how I scream for joy. Either way she was happy that I got a gift I really wanted for a long time. But then she started jumping for joy and squealing too because she got a lot more money on her FS to use each month now so we both just started laughing, squealing and jumping around the house LOL
I called my Dad to squeal to him over the phone but he didn't pick up D: So I left him a super long and funny high pitched voicemail of me screaming "OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG" which he got a kick out of later. He said when he first listened to it he laughed so hard he had to hangup because he wanted my family to listen to me have a seizure XD
So now I have my DREAM TABLET I've wanted for so long now TTwTT I'm so happy I might cry *sniffles* But one funny thing I noticed is when I cut myself... Maybe all good presents require some blood shed and/or blood sacrifices XD;; I guess the bond between me and my tabbie (who needs a name) is official now. And I was surprised how large it was! I'm so glad I just got a 6x8 and not a larger sized one! My Dad asked me why I didn't want a larger one and now I'm SUPER glad I didn't want a bigger one OAO;; And tablets are just amazing... FOSAEIAJQQJIDOJSOE!!! So cool! *huggles it* XD
Oh! The first thing I drew on my tablet was a new lineart of a commission I got from Kaze-Hime last December (ironic perhaps) and I made a funny lil story-video out of the pictures I took as I was opening the package (after I realized it was a tablet lol) which you can find below, so feel free to enjoy and laugh with me as I make a fool of myself XD
*end flashback*
Yeah I stole that from my DA Journal MUAHAHAHAHA! So yeah, I wasn't really excited about Christmas at all this year. I mean the holiday is great and all but I'm not excited to open presents anymore. But this year totally took me by surprise! I didn't want my parents to buy it for me because I knew it was expensive and I didn't want to burden them but they went and did it anyway... Still not sure if I should be happy or not lol? They said its payback for me refusing all the money they offer me since I've moved out of the house. Once again, I'm still not sure if that's a good thing or not XD;; But I love the present and my parents are glad I'm so excited and happy about it :3
Here's that funny little photo-story I did of the pictures I took while opening the box...
( CLICK HERE TO SEE MAE GO CRAZY )
My tabbie needs a name :| Anyone got some good ideas? I like foreign names with cool meanings but that's just how I am XD;;
So yeah I've been addicted to my tablet and I haven't drawn on paper in a while HAHA--*shot* I'm starting to wonder how I survived without the tablet for so long! D8 Eitherway I had an awesome Christmas, although I wasn't able to go and see any of my family >>;; I didn't even get to see them for Thanksgiving. And right now my family is not too happy with me because of it XD;; That must be the joy of living so far away where the weather is so unpredictable. It was a lonely quiet Christmas since my roommates left for 2 weeks to go visit family so it was just me and Jun in the house. And might I add... IT WAS SWEET! Kinda sad since it didn't feel like Christmas without my family but it was nice to sleep in (until Jun would bark to be let outside), to watch movies whenever I wanted, listen to my music without headphones and generally do WHATEVER I WANTED! 8DDDD Not that my roommates don't let me do any of that, its just that I'm probably too self-conscious when they're around to do anything I want...
They come back in 2 days so the quiet will not be as deafening for much longer which will be kinda nice I'm sure :3 Not really anything else to say. Kinda looking forward to next semester since I'm taking the Archery class I've always wanted to take *w* I've been doing Archery since I was 10 and I'm not really that bad at it but I still want to take the class anyway, ya know? It'll probably be another year before I can graduate with my major, but I still have to get a 2nd year level of Japanese before I can. Hopefully I can get back into JCMU for a semester. Whatever happens, happens for a reason. Can't do too much about it, other then continue moving forward.
So everyone... What are your New Year's Resolutions!? :D
