Well, apparently Blogger is being a snot again, but whatever...I think I will switch to LiveJournal soon. XP
I turned in my last final yesterday, which means I am DONE with my junior year of college! Woohoo! XD I'm just glad that it's all over (for now, obviously) although the thought that next year will be my last year of school is actually quite terrifying.
What's even more annoying is that, even though school is now done, I still don't have an internship for sure. I keep hoping and hoping that they'll finally call me up and say they've made a definite decision, since (again) it sounds like they really want me, but I'm a little fed up with having to wait so long for what seems like should be an easier decision than this. Then again, last call Kevin told me that part of the problem is they just got a new supervisor for their department. And considering the fact that my bedroom is still in shambles half a year later, we all know what new supervisors lead to. Argh. Maybe I will try calling some other companies next week, I just don't want to go through that whole process *again.*
In the meanwhile, I do have other plans. First and foremost, I am taking a week off next week...no school, no work, and no website even. I just really need a break, if nothing else than to finally *get well.* I've been sick for a month practically, and I haven't been able to make it go away fully because of stressing over finals and finding employment. I'd like to stop coughing up my lungs *sometime* soon.
After my week off, I'll finally get off my butt and get the website 100% done, which includes fixing all the broken images, setting up the forums and cutting ties with my old server. I can't believe it's taken me this long, but at least the end is finally in sight.
I also need to get to work more on my next RSOM entry...I've been inking the last page, but I still need to finish the actual thumbnails. Argh, I don't like being stuck! XP I'm also going to work hard getting my portfolio and such together for Anime Expo and Comic Con this year, so I can get some feedback (and networking!) in with all kinds of professionals. I'm a bit more nervous this year since I've never done Comic Con before, but it looks like it'll be a lot of fun. At this point, anything to get my name out there is good.
And now, random news thingies I feel like blogging about...
Warner Bros. is finally beginning to rub some brain cells together and figure out that the show 'Loonatics' was the worst idea ever. I resent the comparison with Japanese anime, since last I checked, anime wasn't in the habit of taking decades-old beloved characters and butchering them just because they think "kids these days like that stuff." If today's kids think characters like that are "cool," I think we should begin advocating birth control some more.
Ultimania has come out with a slew of new>Kingdom Hearts 2 images, including Auron and Sora kicking ass together, and the including boss from Mulan's world, plus a bunch of character renders. Also, there is confirmation that the blond-haired kid is a playable character! The more I hear from this game, the more I want to play it. XD Is it E3 yet, please?
Operator status: Extremely busy. And my voice has given out. Great.
Macromedia comprehension status: 68% I've learned that scanning pictures and then importing them into Flash causes problems. If later versions of Flash could find a way to allow you to select pieces of .jpgs and mess with channels such as in Photoshop, it would probably be the greatest program on the planet.
Website reconstruction status: 95% Still no change. And shock of shocks, I've FRELLING ran out of bandwidth already. I'm starting to think the server I picked to switch to was a very bad choice. I don't think I'm going to recommend it to anyone else. But at this point, I've gotten too far into fixing everything to start over now. Just...ARRGH.
Drawing: More KH fanarts (working on two at one time) plus I'm really in the mood to work on some of my original stories now. I think I'll do some model sheets of characters from "The Artifactory." I also still really want to do some more animation...
Writing: Not much at the moment. The other KH fanfic I kinda lost interest in; maybe some thing new'll come up
