Strange...

At work, I found out that K. and I share quite a lot of history... and I never recognised her! She did recognise me... and now it turns out she knows S. as well.

S., my childhood.... well, if I'd say nemisis, I'd be totally overreacting. But still, S. was very arrogant, but everyone adored her, thinking she was Miss Perfect.

And now K. told me: "Oh yes, I know S. as well! She totally hates it if people drool about her like that."

And I was like: '...Eh...? Are we talking about the same S.?'

She now seems to hate it if people say she is so wonderful all the time. She seemed to dig that during High School. So, that leaves me with 2 options:

1. S. outgrew her arrogant phase and grew some modesty. That would be like, totally wow.

2. S. only says that hoping she'd attract attention (which she used to do); kinda like: "Oh, but I'm not perfect at aaaaaaaaaaall, I don't know whyyyyyyy people keep on saying that?" (I knew 2 other people on High School who kept on saying that as well; getting straight A's all the time- J. and H.)

Maybe I should give her a chance again. She wasn't not-talented (heck, part of me is jealous because she became totally famous and is AGAIN worshipped), so the fact she gets to play on all kinds of TVshows must be because she grew into a more talented person... but it's the arrogance I hate, as well as that everybody adored her, saying, and I'm not kidding about that, she could never make a mistake because she was soooooo talented. That's what I hated even more than her own arrogance: the fact people almost worshipped her as if she was a god (I am NOT kidding! I'm serious about this!).

The jealousy towards her may stay; that only helps me improve (I'm jealous at many friends of mine; jealousy and friendship CAN mix!)... but maybe I should give her a chance: people can change. Maybe she really grew out of her arrogance....

Yeah, maybe that's a good New Year's Resolution: give S. a chance to prove she indeed changed. I haven't given her that chance for ages (maybe a little bit childish of me ^_^', I admit!), so perhaps now is the time to do so.

Wishing you luck, S., and truely meaning it! If K. is indeed right and you lost your arrogance, then I wish you all the best and a beautiful carreer on stage, TV and heck, even Hollywood!

Closing off this part of my life... Right in time for the New Year!!

Buzzzzziness

Random title with a random blog. Yesterday I started a large drawing and I want to scan it before colouring... too bad I first have to do my webcomic; otherwise I'd have to scan twice! Scanning is not the problem, but booting up/shutting down the computer and the scanner twice.... 30 minutes I could use drawing my webcomic XP I want to finish my 'to do stuff' as soon as possible, so I can spend my New Year's Eve in peace! W00t!

Just closing off projects, so I can start new ones... and the new ones are for the Kumiko Event in may!!

*sighs sad*

A store I visited every 3 weeks has decided to close... and another store I liked has closed as well. So many stores, just before 2010... closing the doors. It's sad. It does save me about 2 hours once-every-three-weeks, so it does help... but to end it like that...

Anyway, on happier news... I survived christmas, had fun with friends and family... hold on, what was I going to tell? Oh yeah, I wrote some FY chapters! Finally, I was writing again! It felt so good! And tonight, I'll go drawing again :)

I do feel swamped again XD One thing at a time, please!

Wishing ye all well for the last few days of the year... and of course wishing you the best for the entire 2010!

Saturday, December 26, 2009

Hope you had a nice christmas!

I had a fine one as well :) Though my brother in law is way better at any game at the Wii... Drats! A well, he games way, way more often.
I also noticed, in both the online as the offline world... people are really cranky nowadays. Whenever I try to help, show interest... they reply super snappy! Well excuuuuuuuse me (ala Link from Zelda) for being INTERESTED in your life. Or that I was trying to help!
I'd turn my back to them, but they are within my circle of friends and family... and co workers. I guess they all must have the Christmas Snappy Blues or so...

Well, I'm off to do some more online stuff, so I can continue my writing! Happy 2nd christmas day/26th of December!

Thursday, December 24, 2009

There's not much to say

Sorry, there isn't. Maybe tonight, though today if filled with work and cleaning up... I'll probably move my laptop to the attic as well XD It's colder there, but tomorrow the family will come for christmas and the table is needed for food.

Reminds me off, I need food XD

I wish you all a wonderful holiday-time... enjoy the time off!!

That you may get lotsa presents!!

Wednesday, December 23, 2009

Brrrr

All that title-making-up is getting tricky/hard XD. Anyway, it's cold here XP The snow is melting, or was melting today, so getting around by bike is getting easier. Work was okay, as always. Not much to say. A lot of people are stressed and will probably stay stressed.

After work I went with my mom to the garden mall because there was a sale; 40% off on the little houses people can put on a table or so. Just not Dickensville, because that is ugly painted XD (sorry!) We prefer department. We bought a castle today =D Hurray! But we spend quite a lot ^_^'

Anyway, I have 2 e-mails left to send and to update my site. The updating shouldn't take long, the mails either... but we wanna show stuff to dad and go to bed early XP

Polar Express... *sighs*

Well, I saw the Polar Express yesterday and well... even though I had heard it wasn't the best one... I hardly watched it; focused more on online stuff and to do stuff. It was entertainable, but I honestly didn't miss a thing.
And why does Santa Claus need so much movies? To proove his existance? Do people have that little faith in him? St. Nicolas only now starts to get movies; for 500 years he did without.

No, the Polar Express is not the best one and I can't really recall a Christmas Movie I can watch over and over again. Most are sappy.

Talking about sappy... I just recalled: while in the way, way past they showed Labyrint each year, they now show Harry Potter each year. Movies 2 till 4 again. Not that those movies are sappy btw. I may not like the movies and story, but the effects are good. But to be forced to watch Harry Potter 2 for the 7th time? Okay, I'll be in my room, if anyone is looking for me.

Well, today work from 12:30 till 9 pm. Thus far no new snow has appeared, but they expect snow later today again. I'll get to my work, but the way back...? Oh well, it'll probably be fine. If I pay attention, if people pay attention....

Oh wait, that would mean thinking about others XD Some people think that's very hard XP

Monday, December 21, 2009

So, there's snow?

It's strange. Everyone I know: "We've never had this much snow before!" Even my parents! And I'm like: "Really? We haven't? Oh..." I somehow have trouble believing that we never had 50 centimeters snow in my lifetime XD But appearantly, we haven't XP

As expected, I was one of the few with little problems with getting to work. The way back, on broad daylight and with some snow melted, was way more dangerous because of some car-drivers thinking it was crazy that some bike-people were on the road, instead of the heaps of snow. While most, and I mean about 75% of the drivers then, were careful, thought about the people on bikes, some people thought it was okay to keep the normal speed limit *rolls eyes*

Well, I have lots of mini chores to do. I want to write, but it's too busy now. I wrote yesterday, but it's missing The Spark. I want The Spark back *sighs* Why do I keep on losing it?

Oh well, we'll see... it's supposed to snow again tonight XP What shall we see tomorrow...?

Sunday, December 20, 2009

Let it snow, let it snow...

Wow, look at all that snow... a table in our garden hasn't been cleaned ever since the snow started falling 3 days ago and wow... it's like 40 centimetres now! That's HUGE! And about 30 centimeters were from this morning!

And probably, tomorrow, I'm one of the few who won't have much problem to get to my work. If needed, I can even walk. Sure, I'd be on the road for about 45 minutes, but I can walk it. Though I'd totally prefer my bike XD Let's keep an eye on the weather...

Yesterday I went to André Rieu's Christmas Concert and I really enjoyed it! I doubt any of my readers will go tonight but if they do, you might want to turn away! Spoilers ahead then!

We planned on leaving early so we could be there when the doors would open, which would mean 2 hours early. Halfway we had to stop though, because I really had to go ^_^'. This stop only took 10 minutes, so we arrived at Arnhem only a tad after 6 p.m. (Doors are now open). We found the parking lot easy, but WOW! BUSY!
It took about half an hour to parc our car and then 15 more minutes to wait for the bus that would bring us to the concert hall. Seriously, there were way too little busses ^_^'. And it was cooooold!
When we got there, we had to look for our entrance, which was seriously on the other side. We first decided to make a little pitstop before looking for our places. Eventually, we were there half an hour before curtains. It took us almost 1.5 hours to parc the car and get to our places!!
I thought we had really great places, but alas... on the field is only interesting if you're in front. When everybody would stand up, I couldn't see a thing any more! Even if I stood up myself! And when I was seated, I could hardly see a thing as well. Luckily they had big screens, but to pay 75 euros to watch tv....
Anyway, the second song really reminded me of Kimu; too bad I didn't hear the name of the song *sighs*.
The music was awesome, especially when 400 trumpetplayers entered the hall to join them! 400 trumpets; all kinds of them! (Tuba, Trombone...). Amazing Grace then certainly gives goosebumps... btw, so does Memories (Cats) sung by Marusha (sp?), one of André Rieu's star singers.
Anyway, another surprise guest was Mr Wijdbeens, one of André van Duin's characters. Yes, André van Duin came as well ^_^. He's one of my fav comedians of the Netherlands. Sure, a bit over the top, but it was really funny. Such a big, big suitcase for a little conductor's stick XD.
He later came back with a woman, who he did more sketches with in the past. The photojoke was old, but still fun XD
After that sketch André van Duin came back and sang Het Dorp, a very sad, nostalgic song that's about 30 years old, maybe older. It was beautiful :)

Behind me sat a woman who sang along with every tune. And I mean EVERY tune in EVERY language. She either was part of the crew, had practised, or had visited a lot more shows. It was actually quite annoying ¬¬.
During the break, people all rushed to the restrooms. It was really crowded and you know... OLD PEOPLE ARE RUDE!

People from around 40-50 years old pushed in my back ('Hurry! Hurry!') or cut lines (and I just politely wait my turn...). Seriously, if another person from that age bracket dares to say 'Young people these days', they will hear a few things from me! Yes, young people can be rude, but seriously, the things I saw yesterday... Pot calling kettle black!!

On the way back home, I fell asleep in the car XP We were home around 1 am and I slept like a brick XD And when I woke up this morning, it has snowed again... and it's snowing still!

But hey, I'm in my bed, with a warm blanket (though I will get an extra jacket XD) and I have time... TO WRITE! FINALLY!!

Freezing?

According to my Windows Vista Temprature Thingie, it's -10 Deegrees in the town next to mine. So, that means it should be -9, -10 or even -11 here. Wow... COOOOOLD!!

This morning I feared I would have gotten up early for nothing XD All the kids from swimming class were late!... though eventually only 2 showed up XD Mou, I could have stayed in bed, but I had a lot of fun with 1 kid XD

"Miss, can you hold my locker key for me?"
"Sure, just give it to me!"
*after class*
"See you next year, Miss!"
"No, see you later."
"No, it's vacation, so it's see you next year!!"
"I'm still saying, see you later."
*kid leaves, confused*
*6 minutes later*
"Miss.... can I have my locker key back please?"
"Told you: see you later!"

That is always fun :)

Also, we have a new tram here, that doesn't stop on all stations. It's meant for very busy hours... but of course, people forgot it doesn't stop on all stations and thus... missed theirs XD And of course, the usual grumpy people: "They paid so much for this piece of junk and I can't even sit!"
... It's a tiny tram that goes faster than the usual tram. Perhaps you should try REALISM for once! This person probably expects to get a 5 star dinner at a snack bar *shakes head*

Some girls buy bags...

I buy bags too!!...mainly laptop bags XD Or laptop sleeves. Or bags that can hold my art supplies... but never for fashion XD I know some people don't like that, but hey, better on functional bags than ehm... I dunno.... candy?

Though I bought white chocolate :) MJAM!

But I didn't find doilies XD Darn.

What else. Well, the entire day I'm freaking happy. Like I send my dad through cellphone: The sun is shining, the birds are whistling, the fishes are singing!

It's a very jolly day!!

Thursday, December 17, 2009

No post today

My mood is too bad for one. Everytime I arrange something, people eventually cancel... AFTER I spenned money! And now I AGAIN have to look for someone who will go instead....

Wednesday, December 16, 2009

Me ish proud!

I did more of my to do list than I planned! Yay! That means I can play Knight Shift again tonight! I wanted to play the Sims, but that's on the computer on the attic and well... it's COLD there XD No heater there. I had a heater, but my baby-niece needs it XD And well, can't say no to a BABY, ne?

Today I had work. Nothing special. I thought about trying to find new Paper Doilies in the stores (http://img.alibaba.com/photo/11099194/Paper_Doilies_Doyley.jpg ) but I figured I could use the time today and still do it on friday or so. It's not like people NEED the brushes I'm making...

If you happen to have paper doilies (taartranden), I would MOST appreciate it if you'd scan one for me, with a red, dark blue or black paper behind it, so I can turn it into an Adobe Photoshop brush. I want to gather as much as possible!!

Tuesday, December 15, 2009

Ahaaa! A day no post!

Aren't you all happy?! A day no post! Sunday I finished drawing Matsuru's reference, so that was about it. Now yesterday...

I started with working. Again a Belgium person who says we're discriminating Belgium people. Why does everyone agree with our terms except for those Belgium people?! French, German, Australian... they all agree! Oh, and we have a lot of Belgium Customers, but it seems the smart Belgium people don't say they are from Belgium.
Still, I have faith there are smart Belgium people; I know about 10 smart Belgium people! (which are all the Belgium people I know and call my friends XP). And I know plenty stupid Dutch people by the way. Had another high of Dutch Stupidity at work as well. Why do Dutch people NOT READ the terms of service and then claim we are being frauds? That's so typically Dutch! Hiding their own stupidity by yelling at others.

Anyway, after work I went home and called the Bike Shop to make an appointment for my 6 month check-up. "Oh, we are free now, can you bring it now?"... Eh, sure! So, my afternoon was totally gone.
But the dude who checked my bike... had poor eyesight. So I thought: "A BLIND guy is going to fix my bike?!" but he did an AWESOME job! I totally feel safe again! Two thumbs up for the Bike Store!

When my bike was done, dad wanted to show the new car they are going to get saturday or so and of course that meant hours and hours of talking.

I came home, stuffed my dinner inside and got ready for the presentation I had to give. I was allowed to give 3 presentations, but only the first time people showed up. But I don't mind, because the guy with the most critism came back and asked if Manga Art could be used for other things... and if it could help him pick up realism again. I told him it could offer a basic, but eventually practise was what was needed most.

And after that I went home and got to bed. I dreamt about a city that was like a zoo and a Tyrannosaurus Rex broke loose (why was it ther anyway?!). Of course it started munching people, but I told people to flood an indoor theater so we could save the pinguins and dolphins. And wow, people listened. For once, people listened to me and did what I told them to do.
I saved many people, but some still got chewed down and eventually the world inside (which turned huge!) was split among the people who saved the day... except me. I wasn't allowed to 'rule' a part of our zoo-world... Turns out the lady who split everything had a meaning with that, but of course I woke up before I found out why...

But there was a guy with a green/black jester suit and I wore a blue/black jester suit.... Just before I woke up. I seemed to be upset with him....

Sunday, December 13, 2009

Eh? Twice?

Yesterday my second order arrived as well... why does TNT deliver twice a day? And I'm not talking about parcels and mail; I'm talking about mail and mail! Straaaaange.
Anyway, yesterday... let's see:

- Gave swimming class; went okayish
- Came home, had breakfast/brunch
- Did some work for a student
- Art student came; had fun
- Afterwards working on another art reference. Images are done; needs some colouring and then Matsuru's Reference is done!

Today I once again planned to write, but if there's a visitor, I simply can't focus. It's impolite to stay in my room then; even if people tell me it's okay.
And crud, it took me 3 hours to do all my online stuff ¬¬. Slowness....

I'm very cranky today. VERY.

Worst Case Scenario

I order a DVD for my dad at the store I work for.
Yesterday I got a mail it was shipped; a day early. So, I was happy.
It didn't arrive in the mail today...
And the worst thing is that I know I don't have to mail the Customer Service because I know what the answer will be!
*sighs* I assume the DVD will come monday with the mail; probably has been mis-sorted or so. It happened before... but it's annoying because I know the procedures and because something that has been shipped later did arrive!!

But honestly... if it does get lost... I might even be better off...

Friday, December 11, 2009

Yesterday

Yesterday was a new level of stupidness on my work. Not only the customers, btw. But let's not say bad things about people who don't read what the other has said. Anyway, some people seem to think the world revolves around them and yesterday, I'm sorry to say it, 80% of the belgium customers acted like we were the bad guys.

"I don't live in abroad, I live in Belgium!"

... well yeah, from the Netherlands' point of view, you are living in a foreign country XD. Very abroad... Or maybe it's an expression of the wish Belgium should merge with the Netherlands...?

"You are obligated to ship that product to Belgium, because the European Union said borders should not constrict shops."

... but isn't it our shop? Isn't it our choice what we send abroad and what not? (Note: I won't say what it was, but you can assume it was a product that was very pricey and risky to ship I-don't-know-how-many-kilometres)

"I will report you with [name of Customer Organisation]!"

Oh, but this is serious then! Oh, wait. That's a Belgium Customer Organisation. Dutch shop, DUTCH LAW!

And an old one, but always a classic:

"I saw on your webshop you were open on sunday so I drove all the way to your shop and you weren't open at all!!"

We are a webshop. A 100% webshop. Our CUSTOMER SERVICE is open on Sunday. We don't even have a physical store!!

I am so glad I also know people from Belgium who DO have brains! So don't worry, I don't think Belgium people are stupid. Just the ones pointed out above ^_^. And it's a coincidence they are from Belgium, btw. It just has to be....

Post 1001

...and live moves on.

Well, I slept very deep last night, dreaming about a lot of cars broken into as well as a teacher trying to kick from school, which she did, but a friend of mine made his own school and we all lived happily ever after.

Lately I'm not sleeping that great, probably because I'm going to bed irregular again. I need to be strong and just say: It's 11 pm, now I'm going to bed and not going to be distracted any more!... yeah right, like I can be that strong ¬¬

I'm also scanning Paper Doilies (sp?) lately, to make a brush set for my friends. If you want a brush set with those decorative papers they put underneath cakes, just let me know! And if you have some yourself, please scan they with a red or black background so I can turn them into brushes =D I already have 6 converted and got 2 donated!

Hurray!!

Wednesday, December 09, 2009

Post 1000!

And let's waste it! W00t!!

Today I got gifts again, aaaaaalll the way from the USA. It even contained things from my wishlist =D Yay! I love my friends!! Special paper, special pens, Chobits Anime box... Japanese spoken, English subtitles! Yay! I checked it, and it seems like it's a complete edition. I wouldn't know for sure until I watched all; the japanese on the packaging... well... I'm not that good at japanese... kinda like... not at all XP

Other than that... I planned to pre-update my webshop, but alas: again no time XD Perhaps friday. The How to draw books I received gave me inspiration for Eternity 3's Cover, but I already had a few failed attempts XP.

Swimming class went okay. One of the kids had an exam, but she has a medical condition so she can't do everything a 'normal' person can. Still, she did a very intense part without resting, so we agreed the 2 metres under water she missed could be forgiven. We thought about splitting the assignment, so she did MORE than we expected :) Go for it, T!

And last night I dreamt about M. from High School. I always thought she was a friend, but I realised she never saw me like that when she dropped out. We were working on an assignment together and when she dropped out, she took along all the notes and left me with all the work. She doesn't look like the drop out type, but apparantly she couldn't wait before she did. I barely passed that class because of her; explaining it in my report that she suddenly left me with all the work... but the teacher was the kind of 'Heart of stone'. "Your partner left you behind? Your problem!" The things I did, trying to get the notes I needed... took me 3 weeks before her SISTER handed them over, while M. lived about 3 MINUTES from High School.
... So why did I dream about her, all of a sudden? I can't remember what it was about though.

Ooh, there goes my memory again: total blank. I woke up, was cold all morning, worked, went home, did online stuff, the dishes, received a package with GIFTS and left for swimming class... and updated my website.
That was about it. And now, off for bed! Yay!!

Tuesday, December 08, 2009

Post 999

Almost 1000 posts... and I don't seem to care at all XD Maybe because I've been having 759 twitter posts already? Twitter is easier and even more random...

Well, last night I watched Flightplan on TV; that movie certainly had me fooled! Very interesting :) Kudos to the crew and actors! After that, I put on Hairspray, but I'm starting to get an overload XP Woops; I always do that with movies I like!

This night I dreamt my parents and I were getting a little vacation cottage... kinda, because it was in a tower and the top was filled with super awesome sporting equipment. Some girls laughed about how I looked and one tried to punch me, but I managed to defeat her easily. Then all the girls attacked me, as well as my sister, but I seemed unbeatable XP

I also started gathering Harry Potter items on Gaia Online again. That Memory Vial quest is soooo annoying. Seriously! It's so random!!

Post 998

I might have been a little bit too excited about Ponyo yesterday ^_^' . Woops! Anyway, I should have found my brain again.

Today I got my order of X the Movie, an anime that was euro 4.99. For that price... We'll see :) It's only JP/Dutch sub, so I can't watch it during drawing. That's a downer though, I like to draw and watch movies; it's often really relaxing... though drawing often goes very slow then XD

Anyway, I forgot to take my tablet along to work (I use it at work because of RSI-prevention) but things went fine. My company seems to have survived St. Nicolas; me ish proud of all the people who worked to make it a succes! Seriously, because a lot of orders were placed!! Kudos to all! (Not me, because I couldn't work overtime and I was pretty slow today XP)

Afterwards I went to change cards again and looked for 'Pie Papers', those decorative paper circles people put underneath their pies. I scan them and convert them into Adobe Photoshop Brushes. Thus far I had converted 3 and today I found 3 more. I actually only need 1 sheet though... but the rest can always be used in the future or be given away :)

So now I have 6 different sheets of Pie Paper, 3 already converted and 3 to be converted... but I could use more XP

Sunday, December 06, 2009

Cutie-cutie!

I'm watching Ponyo now; in Dutch, so I can be online and watch tv at the same time. It's cuuuute!! I prefer the Japanese version (I assume anyway), but it'll be a bit hard to combine otherwise..

Hehe... Baka Baka Baka Baka XD If you don't know what that means, you'll miss the entire joke.

Anyway, today I finished Grasshopper's reference and started on Matsuru's.

Yes, that is all I have to say. ... Did I even post yesterday? Typing a blogpost and watching Ponyo isn't easy to combine XD

Let's pick one!

.... *turns of the computer*

Ponyo!!

Post 996

My employer's employer is so spoiling me XD Double value coupons because of a cancelled order, free shipment... This is fun XD Don't spoil me too much, I might get used to it!!

Also, my order:

"Oh, I just got home, let's see how far the shipment is, so I know if it will arrive soon."
- click, click, click -
"In distribution... all right, not within the hour at least. As soon as it gets 'Chauffeur on his way', I have to stay downstairs."
- closes screen, opens another screen -
= DING DONG =
"Good morning, Miss, your order!"
"...But I just checked 2 minutes ago! It said nothing about arriving soon!"
"Well, Miss, we are just fast today!"

Well, I'd say! Awesome dude, btw. I know he doesn't like dogs, so I keep my dogs in the room. He's very friendly and patient; way better than the previous one. That one = DING DONG GONE =.

Other than that... mwah, not much to say... but I can draw today! Which means YAY!

In Dutch

The following message will be in Dutch because I don't want certain people to know/read about it. Some already know it, so...

Also, I want to prevent a online translator still reveals the deal, so, excuse my creative writing.


Gisteren ging ik zoals altijd naar mijn werk. Nat, ja dat wel, maar ach, die regen... Op een simpel kruispunt, wat al jaren bestaat, zag een Oto (fonetisch geschreven) mij ietwat te laat. Ik kon nog net mijn been wegtrekken, anders had deze zo tussen de bumpur (bewuste spellingsfout) en mijn fiets frame gezeten.
De Oto schampte mijn achterkant, maar ik kon nog net blijven zitten. Uit schrikreactie even 'Wat een idioot' gezegd en toen, met mijn blonde domme kop... doorgereden. De bestuurder haalde me in: "Het spijt me, ik zag je echt niet! Ik zag je echt niet!" En ik weer, met mijn blonde stomme kop: "Het geeft niets, ik ben in orde, alleen maar geschrokken."

En beiden gaan hun eigen weg. 50 meter verderop: PSSSSSSS.... band leeg. Nou, niet echt leuk dus. En waar denk ik alleen maar aan: "Sjit, straks kom ik te laat op mijn werk!" En uiteraard komt het op dat moment met bakken uit de hemel.

Snel fiets parkeren en naar binnen. "Als ik maar op tijd ben, dan kan ik vragen of ik iets later mag beginnen om even bij te komen..." Kom ik de Planner en HR-manager (toch?) tegen: "Jeetje, regent het zo erg?"
"Oh, dat komt meer omdat ik net ben aangerijden (ja, bewust!)."
HR wil er uiteraard het fijne van weten en drie minuten later sta ik voor mijn Teamleader: "Hey, ik ben net aangerijden...."
"Ja, dat hoorde ik van (Planner)!"
".... Wanneer heeft hij dat dan verteld?! Zag hem drie minuten geleden!"

Enniewee, iedereen heel aardig en 's avonds opgehaald door mijn Pa. Fiets achterin, naar huis, en thuis bleek alleen het ventiel losgeschoten te zijn. Dus ik vannochtend blij dat mijn band nog vol was.... maar ik hobbelde de hele weg.
Een slag in mijn band of een bobbel in mijn band; dat is nog niet duidelijk... er is bijna niets zichtbaar, maar goed, ik ben in orde en die schade... misschien dekt de verzekering dit alsnog. Het is immers mijn eerste aanreding (ja, weer bewust!) in mijn hele leven....



Yeah, so that's what happened :)

Dogs, rain and yawns

My dog was staring at her reflection for 2 minutes, totally frozen... until she finally realised nothing was going to happen XP Weird dog.

And it's raining again today; what a surprise! It has neeeeeeever rained here before! It's okay, as long as I'm inside, but I fear, that when I leave the house... it's not going to be 'I'm singing in the rain', but 'I'm growling in the rain'.

Man, I'm cranky. I woke up halfway an intense dream (half of the dream I was sick, btw) and I just know that when I lay myself down again, I'll fall asleep right away. I doubt the dream would continue plus there is stuff I need to do so crap, I can't go back.

Tomorrow I'll be rushing from one side to another again *sighs* And saturday I need to update my webshop... and I need to add new items as well!

When will I ever be able to write again?!

Impatience!!

Waah, I ordered something from Marktplaats, the Dutch Ebay and I am sooooo excited!! The seller sounds really trustworthy (though no worries, I shall always be carefull! Been fooled before!) so I hope the books will arrive the next week...

But why did he tell me there were more books of that series?! I found another book I want XD I thought my wishlist would be smaller... but now it's getting bigger again XP Luckily with only 1 title (while there will be 3 removed - 1 book was send to me as a surprise gift, Hurray! Hurray!)

...OMG, Ron Brandsteder in his early years... that's like... WOW XD

Okay, that was random. Ehm... today I've been rushing from one place to the other, so I have like 30 more minutes to do my online stuff before I have to update my website...

And still my webcomic to do! These weeks are so crowded!

Dimension jumping!

I dreamt about dimensions and space travels. It was cool. I was stuck on a space station and was forbidden to smuggle cd-roms and ink-for-printers (eh, wah?!) along. All I was allowed to take along was pencil and paper. However, the captain of the crew wanted to take it along anyway and I decided to play decoy. People expected me to take it along anyway, so let's play into that expectation to create a decoy!
... and the decoy worked so well even I managed to get the stuff along XD. Screaming seemed to help XD So we both had the 'forbidden equipment' along.

And in one dimension I helped to reunite a knight and a mermaid. That was adorable.

Well, I want to draw again :) I first have to finish Grasshopper's reference before I can start on a big drawing. I have 2 types of drawings in my mind; one with the FYE1-female cast and one with all the chieftesses (and 1 chief XD).

And maybe I'll be confident to draw the FYE1-male cast soon as well. The girls will have the theme 'The East' (kimono-like drawings) and the boys will then have 'The West', but what will be 'The West'?

Tips are welcome!!
