I didn't intend on making another journal entry so soon after the last one, but I thought I'd make a little art update. At the beginning of the year, I challenged myself to create 12 pieces of art by the end of the year. At this point, I finished 9 new artworks (not including old pics and photographs). So I have two months left and three artworks to go! I think I can do it.

What will those three artworks be? Well, the first will be my Seiken Densetsu 3 piece, which I'll be starting soon. After that, I need to do my 3000 hit request pic, because I looked at my counter and realized that 5000 is coming soon! :0 And I would like to do a Christmas picture of some sort, though I have no idea of what I would do! I will have to think more on that to see if it's possible. Also, I really have a huge list of pictures I owe some dear friends of mine, and I really should get working on those!

November's one of my favorite months in Animal Crossing, because it's the month of mushrooms, which means more Mush pieces and elegant mushrooms which are worth 10,000 Bells! =3 And I've started the fourth case in Phoenix Wright: Trials and Tribulations! Yay, young Mia again! Can't wait to continue with the case!

Let me know if you want to be featured (see below)! I still have 11 places left!

Halloween is this Saturday! But sadly, I have to work that evening, so I won't be seeing the costumes the kids in the neighborhood wear this year. I'll probably wear my Pikachu hat to and from work, though! XD And hopefully finish my Halloween entry, too! What are you all doing this year?

I've already done quite a bit of Christmas shopping already! =3

It's been a Mario sort of week this week. Captain Lou Albano, the guy who played Mario on the Super Mario Bros. Super Show passed away, and in tribute to him, and I watched an episode, and we're likely to continue watching episodes. I know is inspired to work on a Mario picture. And EXTREMELY good news is that the original seven Koopalings will be returning, in 3D, no less, in New Super Mario Bros. Wii! This is totally awesome! I love the Koopalings, especially how they were portrayed in the cartoons. Oh, man, Kootie Pie (aka Wendy O. Koopa) rocked! XD Who's your favorite Koopaling?

Finally finished Illia's character sheet! Yay! Next, I'll be finally working on Why for the SD3 fanart100 and my contest entry for . The contest entry's due date is approaching, so that will likely be finished first. My first Phoenix Wright fanart! XD

Are you guys looking forward to the SD3 fanart100, too? =3 Might be an excuse for more SD3 playing...

Supercon's over, and it was pretty fun. It didn't seem as big as it did last year, and there was less anime/manga/video game-related things to do there, but it was still enjoyable. I won a Wheel of Fortune game, and got some neat prizes; we saw Select Start in concert, which was really neat; I learned how to make patterns, which will help me in making my first cosplay outfit; and I got milk Pocky! Not to mention the hotel had such WONDERFUL beds, and it was still warm enough to enjoy the pool for a couple of days. And best of all, I got to have my favorite cinnamon scones for breakfast!

I did worry, though, that I'm too old to cosplay or do things like participate in conventions. Am I?

Sadly, one of the little kitties outside got feline leukemia and was put to sleep Monday. I cried a lot because he was such a little sweetie. I'll miss you, little Pumpkin. ;_;

Work was pretty exhausting today, so I'll get back to drawing tomorrow!

My new guilty pleasure is... Bridezillas! Those brides are just so awful, I wonder sometimes how the guys could marry them and the bridesmaids could be friends with them! But it sure makes for amusing TV! XD

I FINALLY paid off my second floor in Animal Crossing and got the basement at last! My basement is quickly becoming my favorite room because I'm making it a backyard room with a pool and doghouse and cute little tables and stuff! =3

got sick this week, and wouldn't you know it, he got ME sick, too! Sadly, I think he got it worse than me because he's missed 3 days of work from being ill, and I felt worst on a day I was off from work. I'm off today, too, and since I feel okay, I think I'll continue inking my OC picture and maybe get in some Phoenix Wright if my head's not too stuffed to think! XD
