    Sooo my computer is slowly eating itself right now, so I'm in the process of backing up all my files.
     
    I will be sad if I have to wipe everything.
     
    *sits in a corner and cries*
     
    In the meantime - Pokemon peeps, I'll be on wi-fi from 8:30-10pm EST tonight. Be prepared to win - I'm really easy to whoop. XD

    Travelling!

    By Nikira,

    I'm going somewhere fun on Saturday. I'll be there for two weeks.
     
    Guess who'll be there with me? (:
     
    Also, yes, this means you'll prolly not see much of me until I get back (not like you guys see much of me in the first place). XD
     
    *asdfgiggle*
     
    Now excuse me, I have to go unpack all my college belongings and fit them into an ittybittytinylittle room. Grf. :[

    I need to update my blog more often, like I did in highschool. Wha happened to entries every other day?
     
    Anyways.
     
    Hi guys, I'm drowning in finals right about now and haven't seen you guys for like, 20ish days. D:
     
    Finals are rather rough on me this year. I'm taking 18 credits worth of classes (every credit is equal to an hour in class and at least an hour outside of class on homework), so studying for finals is killing my braaaain. One of my finals involves sewing up a costume in only one week. >___O I'll post pictures when I can (I'll post designs when I can, too XD).
     
    One of my other classes has two exams - a regular and the comprehensive final - within a week of each other. And it's math.
     
    I don't like math.
     
    But yeah that's school. Can't wait for it to be over - I go home on the 28th. I am excited for summer.
     
    Speaking of summer:
     
    Due to a few different miracles, I'm going to Brickfair in August. I shall be bringing bookmarks with me! I have a few members already purchasing/picking them up there, but if you're going to Brickfair and are interested in purchasing them, let me know so I can make enough sets beforehand.
     
    Aaaand that's all I've got today.
     
    Art also needs to be a more common thing. I haven't done a Bionicle piece since June last year. WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?
     
    *sobs*
     
    If I'm dead like this again, someone kick me metaphorically, mkay? D:

    Yay For Theatre Work

    By Nikira,

    So I'm apparently the Assistant Stage Manager for Annie next February. o______O
     
    This means I get to be the one who calls the shots backstage during the performance, govern the crew chief and crew heads and cast (lots of children means lots of broken stuff) and make sure they don't break props or furniture or themselves, be the personal lackey for the stage manager and director, stay up late and get up early for a long time, etc.
     
    Plus I get a scholarship and a chance to be stage manager my senior year.
     
    This was a big surprise.
     
    Happy I am~

    My Kitty

    By Nikira,

    I have to go home tomorrow and accompany my kitty to the vet for the last time.
     
    He has been given two years to live with diabetes, and since we can't afford the medicine to take care of him...
     
    I'm not excited for tomorrow.

    The Great Gatsby

    By Nikira,

    I am literally in tears after finishing this book.
     
    It was gorgeous.
     
    Whyyyy oh why can't there be more authors like Fitzgerald? ;___;
     
    *goes to cry a happy cry*

    Daylight Savings

    By Nikira,

    Clocks go forward tonight.
     
    Remember to set your control panel forward, too (Control Panel -> Board Settings -> Click the "Is DST in effect?" box).
     
    I almost forgot so I'm sure there's other people out there who did as well.
     
    Night, everyone.

    Bookmarks (for Sale)

    By Nikira,

    Thanks to everyone who has purchased bookmarks - this has done much better than I thought it would, and I'm very happy that people have been interested in these! I'm currently working on a Takanuva bookmark as well as designing a Metru set and a Chronicler's Company set (this would be in Bionicle form, not the human designs Scratch that - I would not be able to sell these if I used the Bionicle designs, so these will be human as well). Let me know what you think.
     
    YAY bookmarks are finally done.
     

     
    Woooo, okay!
     
    These will be $5 a piece.
     
    Sets of 2 (Onua/Lewa, Gali/Pohatu, Tahu/Kopaka) will be $8.
     
    The full set of six will be $22.
     
    ONLY TWO SETS PER PERSON, PLEASE.
     

     
    All bookmarks are laminated. The back has a simple black border with the individual Toa's name across the left side.
     
    I accept cash (USD only), check, and PayPal. Comment here or contact me via PM if you're interested.

    Hum

    By Nikira,

    I should really get some Bionicle artwork back into General Art, shouldn't I?
     
    *feels like a lazy artist* :[

    Eraagh

    By Nikira,

    School just spat in my face and left me out on the curb in the rain. With no umbrella. :[
     
    Or something similar to that.
     
    Pardon me as my activity level goes waaaay down in the next few weeks.

    Depp

    By Nikira,

    No, not deep, you silly.
     

     
    I messed the eyes up. T_____T
     
    But, whee, here's a picture.
     
    4 hour sketch, cardstock and mechanical pencil (8B drawing pencil for large blocks of shading).
     
    Now off to what has prevented me from picturing in the first place.
     
    *goes to do homework*

    Most Excellent

    By Nikira,

    Art thefts, misunderstandings, homeworks and arguements of the week have all been resolved.
     
    I am now having a most excellent day.
     
    Hooray for most excellent days!
     
    *does a hooray dance*

    What Ticks Me Off The Most

    By Nikira,

    Art theft is wrong, guys.
     
    Wrongwrongwrong.
     
    This includes tracing other people's pictures and posting them as your own creation.
     
    Kay? ... Kay.
     
    *goes to fume*
     
    For those that are asking about it: yes, I ran into an art thief today, yes, the situation has been taken care of, and no, it was not on BZPower.

    Because MATH IS FREAKING ANNOYING.
     
    I'll take paper writing anyday, heck, if i'm lucky, you can get me to explain a mathematical theorem in writing.
     
    But hand me a marker and ask me to finish an equation?
     
    NOOOOnonononononogaaaughhhhrosebud.
     
    I don't like math.

    No Vikings?

    By Nikira,

    So much for a Minnesota Super Bowl.
     
    (If it wasn't for our swiss-cheese defense and the fact that we had so many turnovers/penalties/etc., maybe we would have done good. Oh, Vikings, you disappoint me.)

    Bookmarks!

    By Nikira,

    Bookmarks! :3
     

     
    Gali, Pohatu, and Lewa respectively.
     
    Thinking about selling these when I get the rest of them done (7 total). They're approx. 1.5x5 in. and would be around $2-4 a piece (I want to find some protective film or something first, no idea how much that'll cost. )
     
    Interested? No? Okay then, well, happy Wednesday I guess.
     
    EDIT: Uhhhh wow. XD; Between you guys and my art page on a different site, I've gotten so much feedback about these! Thanks so much!

    So I found out tonight that, due to frustrating and poorly explained circumstances, I may not be able to get paid from TRU after all.
     
    Niki does not like this. Especially because TRU money is what she was supposed to live off of for the next 90-something days.
     
    Meh.
     
    Happy New Year, everyone.

    Football

    By Nikira,

    Soooo the Vikings lost today.
     
    Which means no #1 spot (we're tied for #2 right now unless the Eagles fail on Sunday).
     
    Which means no home field advantage.
     
    BOOOOO.
     
    On the bright side, Smeag got to watch a bunch of Minnesotans go nuts over their favorite team ever. He was actually cheering with us that last quarter.
