couple things  
Classes passed: 2. Classes to go: 5.
Finals due tomorrow: 1. Progress: about 5%.
Papers due tomorrow: 1. Progress: I'd say 3%.

Mugs of coffee drank: 1. Possibility of nausea all through the day tomorrow: around 10%, since I only drank it at around 11:45 pm.

Prospective hours of sleep tonight: 3 if I'm lucky.

The (not really) funny thing is that I did absolutely fuck-all in the afternoon because I can only start concentrating on schoolwork past 8 pm. Especially if it involves writing. So I'd rather work under pressure and lose valuable hours of sleep than make the effort of doing boring shit for a couple hours. I suck.

Well, only 1 1/2 weeks to go and I'll be free. If I pass everything I'll declare myself queen of the universe.


Every time I see the acronym GW, I think Gundam Wing, not Ginny Weasley. So whenever I see HP/GW written somewhere, my brain has a few milliseconds of confusion involving Harry piloting Wing Zero before I go "no wait a sec, that's not it."

Thank god the abbreviation of Legend of Zelda has three letters as and almost none of the characters have surnames.

I'm bored. Ask me questions. Fandom, real life, silly, anything, as long as they're not excessively Deep and Meaningful and/or Serious Business, because I'd rather use the time it'd take me to think about the answers doing, you know, important work.

*goes back to putting cameras on people's eyes for final and pulling stuff out of ass for Philosophy paper*

(i seriously should be working right now, but i'm pissing about on the internet instead. what else is new?)

more stuff from my team at [info]rs_games, posted in the past 3 days:


Beyond the Veil
What happened after Sirius fell through the veil. R
Amid A Crowd Of Stars
Harry is having trouble with his homework. Sirius listens as Remus helps him. PG
Stardust
They’d have you believe war is romantic—with soldiers ready to lay down their lives for Queen and Country and love found in even the darkest of times. But for those caught up in battle—those who watch their lives and loves break before them—it means picking up the pieces, rebuilding what you can and learning to move forward again. PG-13
The Chioce
How might one choice affect your life? Remus POV, canon'compliant through DH. PG-13
Denouement, A Story in Six Acts
Five missed chances, one that is taken. R *my personal favorite from today's list*
Eye of the Beholder
The years, and Azkaban, have not been kind to Sirius, and he no longer recognises himself. Remus, however, knows exactly who Sirius is – and is the one who can show him. PG-13


and because I'm so ~honorable~, here are my two favorites from that other team so far. :p

Detached and Precious
Though I'm frightened by the word, I think it's time that it was heard. NC-17
Like the Moon, and the Stars, and the Sun
Something had definitely changed, and had caught him completely unaware. Well, maybe not completely. More like he simply hadn't been paying attention. Or hadn't quite wanted to pay attention, at least at first… R


and now for a different challenge: i was looking at the art posted on the [info]hd_worldcup and... man, there are only two that actually made an impression on me; this one because both the technical skills and the rendering (if that's the correct word) are excellent, and this one because of the style (at some points i wasn't feeling it, but it won me over in the end ;] ) and because it's funny. the rest... i don't know. with some i liked some parts of it (there were several done in that sort of surrealish comic style, which sometimes was done well, some other times not so much) and wasn't too keen on the others... with others i liked the concept but not the rendering... things like that. there was this really embarrassing thing that happened to me, i was looking at this piece that was supposed to be really emotional and i burst out laughing. I felt so bad about it. ;_; i liked the fic (at least what i've read) much more, the participants did an excellent job.

anyway, i don't know, maybe i have more problems connecting with the pairing, even if i *do* like it, very much (if that's the case, i am worried because i don't know wtf am i doing, drawing h/d myself).
i hope no one gets like, offended if they read this. :[

so, my cousin let me borrow his camera (canon rebel xt) for a few days, to see how it worked and to do some test shots and such. but-- my computer won't detect the camera when i connect it. no, i mean-- it does, then it tells me that the installation went wrong and then nothing. i've reinstalled the drivers two times already. UGH. i don't know what i did to deserve to have such shit luck with computers and all kinds of electronic devices. a crime against technology in a past life, apparently. DAMN IT.

getting this out of the way...  
i figured i would have to draw these three assholes eventually.

i did not expect it to be so goddamn frustrating.

(PS. I MEANT "ASSHOLES" IN A LOVING WAY, OK)



untitled - harry and his two BFFs - G )


I also have 3 R/S fanarts sketched but-- like i said. I can't color. It all looks wrong. I think the heat has broken my brain. :[

i keep trying to remember to watch heroes every friday but it's kind of hard to do so when most of the time i don't even notice i have a tv in my room right next to me. so most of the time, when i catch the show on tv, i don't even know wtf is going on. urgh.

OK, my IJ looks seriously boring and gross. I spent like 30 minutes on it, but it didn't change much. I can't even put an image in the background. Are free accounts made of so much fail that I can't even do that, or am I just being totally internet-retarded?

It's not like I use it, or anything. but it's still annoying.

i was going to post more h/d doodles but--- forget it, just have the whole thread.

ps. NSFW, click under your own risk, etc.

ps. the second: i'm not tagging anything here as adult, jsyk, because: a) anyone with two brain cells to rub together can figure out how to get past the age block, b) i don't want to uglify my LJ with the default cuts, c) I always warn and rate my art, and i consider that's enough, d) the stuff i post here rarely gets explicit, e) ... i had an e but i can't remember what it was. maybe something along the lines of "fucking kids always have to ruin everything, fuck this shit".

yeah  
i was *this* close to joining FAP (lolol fap, my inner 12-year-old won't stop giggling.) a few minutes ago. ugh. then i remembered that i suck at forums.

and they don't make my favorite cookies anymore :(

also my birthday is in 9 days ZOMG! I'll probably spend all day in front of the computer being bored. i think my 13th birthday was the last one i celebrated.

edit: doooo you guys think i should get an IJ? all the cool kids are doing it. except that it seems really unnecessary in my case, i can barely keep up with all the sites i'm already on, and i fucking hate tweak with a hot burning passion.

editedit: my tablet pen nib is almost extinct! i will cry. :( i don't want to think about having to go to santiago (and knowing me, getting my provincial ass lost) to get a new one. if they even sell them. i'll probably have to end up buying a new pen.
