Upcoming stress

Actually, not just upcoming, but so very soon.
Well, I have a group presentation to do next Monday. Also today-Sunday is an online quiz.
And then the week after are the midsession exams. Oh the stress. Apec as a long weekend is meaningless when i have fridays off anyway..

Finished playing Phoenix Wright 3 - Trials and Tribulations. Oya, if you want, here’s the Phoenix Wright 3/Gyakuten Saiban 3 for Nintendo DS Rom. Well.. a link I found of it at any rate.
Was absolutely brilliant. The finale of this saga.. Next up is Ace Attorney Apollo Justice and although Phoenix comes back [as Hobohodo hahaha]
Unlike the other sagas, the ending in this one is quite depressing and yet powerful.

Well, I’d spoiler it, but then people may kill me =P Plus, I’d just like to say that it IS the japanese cartridge. it’s just that it has english on it. and I sure do like the translations.. some things are just soo funny.
Eg. “Phoenix: Edgeworth… He’s got so much pride that he’s probably off crying in a corner of the garden…”

So much so that Phoenix wants to hug it out of him =P *snickers*
So here’s just some art. {and one of Yuiko to continue the Loveless art series haha]

Mia and Godot
Godot/Diego Armando and Mia Fey

Also drew a picture of Pearl and Maya locking Phoenix and Edgeworth together but.. that needs major editing.

And yes, this is scanned art using copic multiliners and the two skin colours, the slate grey copics and the bright green tria marker that I have for tones and then edited in photoshop to have.. a more diverse range of colours =P

As for me.. coupled with stress and illness approaching me.. I feel quite weak..
And my net is lagging since it’s capped >_>
But spring is approaching as is the one week break.. eventually. Don’t quite know when it is.. but I hope it comes soon. The lack of sleep is draining me. AND also the bloody group work that means I have to go to uni for four days in 3 consecutive weeks >____> *growl*

Nan

Lots of pretty images.

Sigh. Should really be getting some work done.. :/ Buut.. here are some pictures. ..all except the coloured in version of Soubi from loveless are from my phone :/ So its quite lousy quality.

Also, it’s Daffodil Day so if you’re around some Daffodil Day initiative, support the Cancer Council and uhm…yea.

Did you know that it was discovered by the scientists in Melbourne, with the new synchrotron, how cancer cells actually work?

It’s actually quite fascinating how the bits of DNA that complain of the intrusion/pain get smothered up by the cancer cells which quickly take over, and since these warning DNA aren’t able to warn, the cell gets infected.

Anyway, first up:

SMASH!
SMASH! 1

SMASH! 2

Next:
Darren Hayes’ New Album released the 20th, This Delicate Thing We’ve Made, [sans the booklet. Pft. S’if you’d be able to see it completely anyway].

So anyway, much 2CD album love because its such soft suede stuff and all: [and get your own from darrenhayes.com or your nearest retailer =P]

Was lucky enough to buy the second last limited edition one from JB-Hifi Sydney/The Galleries, Town Hall, today.

Was in a rush too, since I said I’d meet Ellie at the station at 2.15pm ^^;

Also ran into Allyson B. and Joseph D. …twice. Once at JB-Hifi but also at Kinokuniya [which is slightly strangely out of character of these former fellow high school students if they were characters…] when I was off buying some more of those lovely Copic Multiliner 0.05mm pens *__*. It’s twice as much as what I paid at SMASH! though *weep*. <3 the pens though.

Doesn't smudge with my lefthandedness so anything of the sort is brilliant. They didn't have any fountain pen ink erasing fluid though. Guess I'll have to order that online. :/ Why is it that only the United Kingdom has such innovative stationery? >_> I mean.. I had to ask Stabilo about refills for their S’Move Easy pens, and was told that they weren’t stocked in Oz. Nevermind that this UK store had them… although shipping was terrible. Of course, Ed, if you’re reading this, I bet you’ll be all “UK = best” again, ey? Haha.

*ahem* Well anyway, new art.
This time it’s Soubi from Loveless in a combo of Copic + Highlighters [which turned out utterly horrible] and thus + Photoshop editing. I love how the skin turned out though.

However..this time around, I have lineart!! =P
Technically, I like my lineart much more than the colouring in.. except, I never bother to take an image/scan it :/

Finally, speaking of online purchases, [for this post seems to be a ‘what I’ve bought’ today post], my order arrived and soo, now I have a laser pointer
[..that’s RED! Not green! Aaand, I know perfectly well that Australian customs allows green lasers in in all states EXCEPT Victoria, which is limited to 5mW aand my laser pointer is 5mW. It’s also red, so its ‘weaker’. Certainly can’t explode balloons and cut stuff at any rate =(]
+ flashlight + extendable ball point pen all in one =P He. he. he.

Nothing malicious of course. I just ‘need’ it to point at things when I do one of my multiple presentations for the semester :x . And it’s cool. Yay. RED laser. Not that silly UV blacklight stuff, but a laser ^_^ *waves it around pointing at things*

It’s awfully amusing to find that red lasers illuminate far off corners muuch better than LED flashlights. and it’s probably possible that bugs can be decapitated with it =P which is also amusing, because the electronic fly swatters are illegal to import, and yet other things sure aren’t. But I suppose it depends on the method of — alright, lets just say swatter = “electrical”. Pft.
Anyway. Yay. Laser. I can measure straight lines out with it too… sorta. Working out extended angles, at any rate.
Now back to that homework of mine.
