Rain’s blog

Sometimes I’m so optimistic I think I’m delusional.

Junk 2

Currently in Vancouver o0o! This place is freezing. My landlord is too cheap to turn on the furnace so I’m freezing in the ground-level basement. Vancouver in all of its dampness smells like rotting dumpster. ~__~

We went to Victoria Island today and paid a trip to the BC Parliment. It’s pretty nice in there :D They have this huge christmas tree 2 stories all with lots of barbles and tinsels. (sp?) Luckily today’s a workday so I got to visit the inside unlike both of the times I’ve been at the Ottawa Parliment. We also went to Burchant’s Garden. HOLY CRAP THAT’S NOT A PRIVATE GARDEN o_O!! I don’t want to imagine how much time and labour it’d take just to maintain that gignatic place. But it’s REALLY nice and I loved all the green areas in there. I love trees :D (No I’m not a tree hugger) It makes me feel peaceful just looking at them. We took Ferries there and back and one-way trip was 1.5 hours O_O! The cruise is huge though. It can contain 400 small-medium sized cars in its lower decks. The upper passenger decks has 2 coffee bars, a breakfast food court, a water-front buffet restaurant, 2 video arcades and a giftshop. o_o In other words, HUGE! (Did mention huge?) It looks super luxurious in there x) We got dropped off in front of T&T supermarket and I bought more Pocky. lol. xD

My vancouver friend said she’s gonna introduce me to some nice BBT shops hmmm. Except I forgot her contact cuz I’m just so very smart C: Oh well I will have REAL Japanese Sushi. There’s a Jap restaurant right in front of my current residence and it’s opened by a Japanese. Not like cheap Toronto where you go to a Sushi place and everyone’s shouting Cantonese at each other lolol. Except Japanese are really strict or something so nothing’s on the house ;( There goes my complimentary Miso soup and ice cream. !sob

I brought my laptop along but my plug is 3-some and the only outlet in my room is 2-holed (not to mention broken and lacking power). So I hunted around the house today and finally found a 3-hole outlet. It happens to be above the couch in the lounge facing the bathroom. So currently I’m sitting in the freezing lounge on the couch facing the bathroom. I must say the pleasent smell in the air is very inspirational. +nod+

My wireless card randomly picked up some unsecured wireless internet in the area. So I’m leeching off someone’s internet right now +halo+ Too bad for whoever it is hehe. This net is really slow though, despite the strong signal I’m getting. =( A jpg file takes a minute to load x_o; In all of that I refrained from going to neopets hehe. I put my status on hiatus. LET’S KEEP IT THAT WAY KKK. Unless I get unfrozen which I highly doubt but still am working towards. Yay for contradictory goals. ;)

K sleep time x_o.

I got trial premium for xanga, but since I don’t know what to do with it, I will just let it rot :D I’m not using it anyways lol.

My supervisor miraculously called me today without me calling her first, so I told her about the conflict and she rescheduled my training :D I hope that wouldn’t have any negative impact on my future.. erm.. career? @_@ IMPENDING DOOM.

Still got a bit of bio left but I’m pretty caught up now !yay

If you can’t see details on the shirt, THAT’S OK THERE IS NONE. :D that’s why there is random brushing on it ^^ Why did she turn un-asian ;-; even though, I don’t really know what race is she supposed to be anyways :D?!

My third attempt today at drawing a realism Rain. I think I like this sketch, but let’s hope it doesn’t turn out as bad as my previous “I like this sketch” attempt. I don’t know how to colour the stupid face ;-; I probably don’t know how to colour any other things but since I haven’t tried yet, I don’t know yet lol.

I really want to finish this one and upload it so people can’t stop going “you draw like Shilin” to me. :( I know I colour like her but I don’t draw like her. I’m desperately trying to find a style I can call my own so people can stop labelling me as “the person who copies Shilin”. It’s kind of upsetting. ^^; But thanks to Shilin for pulling a few strings for me and got me a lot of favs and watches on my last submission. ilu ^^

BIOBIOBIOBIOBIO /slap. I need to stop slacking. D:

My scanner is being weird o_o Every once in a while it refuses to connect to my computer, so photoshop gives me this “scanner cannot be initialized” error message and lags for 2398044890 minutes. D: then after a while if I try again (without doing anything to fix it) it just works again o-o;;
I wanted to play RO, but when I tried to unzip the installation file, winRAR died for 10 minutes, along with my computer -_-;; so yeah not touching it now.

10 lectures left for bio! x__x so screwed aiya. Yet I spent today drawing this: (lawl)

liek omg I drew something decent xD Even though really I just coloured it D:

Eh well, spoken too soon on Dr Watson ;( I got the error again pfffft.

I spent the whole day at Shilin’s today w00t. She has a massive room and comfy blanket and pillows ;-; and pretty artbooks ;-;! I like her cat… the small one that loves to jump off the balcony when chances permit. And we had crabs and fried chicken wings and yummy. (Oh and the other cat wanted to drink the chicken soup ;o lol) Then we spent most of the day in the computer room (surprise eh?) listening to songs on her PWNFUL STEREOS. D:! I tried to make her do collabs with me and these happened. D:

	I took up too much space and Shilin didn’t have any room to draw lol
	This one looked like something she drew before so she ended up drawing birds all over
	Then I left too much room and she didn’t know what to draw o-o;;
	And in the end chibis worked their wonders. (omg small hands Weirin xDDD)

Now time to read that lab that I planned to read erm.. 2 days ago. @_@;;

p.s. images will be uploaded shortly… when I get to use the scanner xD

[EDIT] images uploaded

I downloaded IE 7 beta 2. It’s just like a blue version of firefox with some other addons from other browsers. haha. Microsoft is such a copycat unable to come up with originality ;o At least it doesn’t take as long as firefox to start up, and the buttons are shiny. The only good thing is that after upgrading my internet explorer, the error I always get on start up DISAPPEARED! HURAAAAAAAY! TAKE THAT DR WATSON DEBUGGER! But my default is still firefox. xD Although Shilin has been trying to convince me to use maxthon, some unknown browser that she apparently loves. haha. For one, her site’s background music repeats on maxthon but not on firefox. Grr.

I saw some girls from some private school on the subway and their uniform inspired me to design this thing:

I like those shoes :D

New junk ^^

I shaded the picture I cged since I got bored in lecture xD Now you can see the sader that got cut off ^^;;

Omg I beat Metroid Fusion again. :( 3:35 and 100% power-up collection. Someone save me from boredom. /sob

My DA account died. My none of my 709 devWatchers comment/fav/etc my submissions. Grr. It’s gonna take mad long to get back to my 50+ favs again. ;( Pathetic, I know, but bahhhh I want. ;_;

Shilin’s very frilly dress of Rain is killing my comp like mad. Everything laaaags including switching from brush to eraser, but it just dies a lot when I’m switching between resolutions. Someone buy me a RAM upgrade for… whatever holiday’s coming up? :D

On another note, it’s monday again ;( Eww @ summer school. Gotta do my homework hehe. -_-;;
