Yeah, I have 3 of my 5 trainer card stars for HG (still need to complete my Pokedex and the Tower challenge). Another thing you could do is go shiny hunting... I don't think that'd help the obsession though - shiny hunting takes a LONG time (and a lot of resets or hatching eggs or walking around aimlessly) unless you have the PokeRadar on Diamond or Pearl. XD -Nikira

Even though I'm 20 and my mouth has stopped growing, I'm apparently going to need braces soon to prep for jaw surgery. I am not excited to give up chewy candies! -Nikira

I'm gonna be 20 in like, three days. Aksjfglks. D: When I started this blog, I was, what... 3 months shy of 16? Life goes by so fast! Also, life is really busy and stressful, but I'm doing better than I have been for a while, so cheers for me! Also, 19 days until 5-day holiday vacation yayness! Also, McSmeag is growing a beard and you should totally encourage him in his efforts. =D *spin* -Nikira

MY JAW SURGERY GOT APPROVED. ASDSLKDJGSHLFK FINALLY It only took four and a half years! YAYYAYYAY If you have no idea what I'm talking about, do some reading. YAYYYYYYY -Nikira

ROAR. *pounces on whoever is reading* I woke up with the worst bedhead today so I look like some sort of weird mutant lion. Omnomnom on your limbs! *rawrrr* Anyways ur.... Hi guys, whaddid I miss? =D -Nikira

Taking a break from BZ. Really really ill and already struggling enough to complete schoolwork and still have time to eat and sleep and not break down crying from exhaustion. So yeah, see you guys later, kay? Nobody die while I'm gone. -Nikira

I've never had Maku before, so LOTS OF YAY. Maybe I'll go do a photoshoot near the lake, who knows. :]

YAAAAAAAAAAAAY -Nikira

Look, I drew something Bionicle-related! -Nikira

Woooo audiobook and sequel and contest and auuuugh~ <3 -Nikira

Just a reminder: If you haven't seen it already, Hero Factory polls are allowed in Voting Booth! So no more reports about it, mkay? It's legit now! Also, hi guys, I'm studying for Stage Lighting and learning about wiring and dimmers and instruments! What are you doing? XD -Nikira

About time! -Nikira

I used the BPelt Plugin for Photoshop - if your lineart is clean, black-and-white, and antialiased (if you run a lineart throung Thershold at 128, it works pretty well) and has no gaps in the lineart between seperate areas of color, this plugin fills in the seperate areas with all sorts of colors (which you can replace with the paint bucket tool). It's a little more complex overall, but it saves a bucketload of time for me since I usually fill in all colors by hand. -Nikira

Yayyyy found a plugin that increases the time in laying down flat colors, like, soooo much. Of course this means new picture time. Pfffffff hard cell coloring + Takua = AUGH I'm pretty proud of the result, although the hair needs some work. :T Also: Why can't I color commissions this fast? -Nikira

I wonder if there's any disclaimer on the bag for the risk of internal bleeding. Cause like, owch. -Nikira

Hooray for Smeagol4 day! -Nikira

As much as I would agree to this, that idea now would be horrid for my health. Still trying to work out a way to get money during the semester, though. I think I'm okay on the textbook ground. Since I home schooled previously, my mom is a expert at finding books at bargain prices. I can't believe how expensive these books are, it's such a scam. Yeah, most of my books this year were around $90 a piece in the school bookstore. Blegh. Half.com is a nice place to find some stuff, and sometimes you can find a good deal on Amazon or halfpricebooks. -Nikira

Why is it that I can connect my laptop to the Internet in a record 12 hours, but it's going to take at least two days to do the same thing with my DS...? Ohhhhhhhhh college confuses me sometimes. -Nikira

Packing up my laptop for the move tomorrow. Byebye, guys and gals, I'll see you when I find a good wi-fi connection at school! *tralalaskip* -Nikira
