First post of 2008 is...pretty standard!  
Curses! I got the crummy computer at work, so now not only is there no Firefox or AIM, there's also no music, and it's gonna make me go NUUUUTS. The weirdest thing is, the computer doesn't even seen to have a disc drive. I mean, obviously the disc tray is there to load CDs into and all, but the computer doesn't even list a D-drive in the "My Computer" section. How is that possible? D:a

Could be worse, I suppose. The computer could be running Vista. But I will be a sad thing without tunes to listen to or people to talk to. ;_; ...Or maybe this job just spoils me ridiculously; I don't know.

Oh yes, New Years stuff...my evening was quite fine; hung out with everyone at the Ranch, where we watched some Doctor Who and "Eternal Sunshine for the Spotless Mind" (although I fell asleep at the end of that one.) Em got a new DVD player that lets you play things directly off of a flash drive. :O Pretty nifty! Also that day, I went ahead and bought PW: Justice for All. XD Because dangit, these games are fuuuun.

Then on New Years Day, I drove on down to Disneyland for drawage. Man, if nothing else, going on the 1st was great because there was NOOO TRAFFIC. Although it was really kind of strange doing D-Land by myself...I've always gone with friends or family or some other. But I did get some pages' worth of sketches...they just happen to be on my home computer right now. :P Dunno whether I should try and do color finishes on any of them or not. Things I noticed:
- Both cast members and random strangers will stop and talk to you more if you're sitting still. I actually had a couple kids draw in my sketchbook 'cause they wanted to stop and draw, too. XD
- Speaking of, kids use their mouths more expressively than adults to.
- And speaking of speaking of, I suck at drawing mouths. D:

In the meanwhile, I guess I should really get to drawin' since I have the free time. Thankfully I also have PW. XD I just started the third case. A-and...I dunno what to think about Pearl channeling Mia. Except maybe D:. And dude, those psyche-lock parts were sometimes harder than the trial itself!

And almost forgot: there was a new Lunargyros page last Tuesday!

Drawing: Sketches

Writing: Stuffffffff.

Do you have any browser at all? If you can, try www.meebo.com for AIM.

It's what I use on my Mac, because I'm too lazy to download AIM and MSN. xDD

A-and...I dunno what to think about Pearl channeling Mia. Except maybe D:

Ahahaha. xDDD It's especially wrong because Pearl is so completely innocent and clueless about it.

That's what I love about Disney. Just random people come up to you and talk to you about anything. Little kids, families on vacations, cast members, whoever. They just want to talk to you, it's amazing XD

IT MAY BE TOO LATE and I can't get on AIM and you apparently can't either so I'm hijacking your journal - SPEED THROUGH TURNABOUT BIG TOP WITH A WALKTHROUGH. You got JfA so fast I forgot to warn you. XD It's pretty much the worst case of the series, with the most bullshit contradictions. Use a walkthrough, your brain will thank you.

Haha, I'm on that case right now. XD; Think I'm either about to finish or am somewhere in the middle of the first trial day? I actually haven't had a need to use the walkthrough too much so far, but I've also been taking it slowly.

Maximillian is um...WOW. And people complain about Marluxia's pink hair. D:

(You packing for WDW? :O)

Lyssie: fuck the what now?[personal profile] fuyu on January 4th, 2008 02:30 pm (UTC)
Fair enough~ I mainly just hate that case and advise everyone to use a walkthrough so they can get it over with as quickly as possible. XD

MAX IS AMAZING

(I... am! Sort of. Actually, we're cleaning shit out right now in preparation, it's kind of epic. I intend to take some of Saturday for myself, but other than that I think I've hit the RUSH RUSH GOGOGO point of no return. I should be sleeping right now, but apparently when I reach a certain stress level that becomes impossible...)
