Everyone is writing journals so why not? I've got nothing better to do, but I don't have anything to say so everything below is just a bunch of ranting. But if you're REALLY that bored, you can go ahead and read on.
//Youtube, AMVS, anything else on the Internet//
I'm trying out for an AMV Studio which movie maker people don't usually do cause everyone is just so picky and it drives me crazy. But I got some add-ons so I have a better chance of getting in. It's called Endless Summer Studios and I had that song (Endless Summer) stuck in my head all night after watching the video a few times to get all the rules down. Anyways, you get to choose a character to be for promo vids and stuff like that and I chose Kallen from Code Geass so I'm gonna have to get used to that character. So if you see a whole bunch of deviations with someone red head, no, I'm not a fangirl, I'm just changing my channel. I've already tried to change my channel but I have no color sense and it was a total fail =.= I'll try again when I make a custom wallpaper.
//Drawing//
I got bold after my Kusuriuri drawing and am attempting another drawing of him...with wind. Yeah, I'm THAT stupid. DON'T DRAW SOMEONE WEARING A KIMONO IF YOUR PLANNING ON ADDING WIND!!!! The only reason my drawing was saved was cause I used my own kimono as a reference. I think I failed at life on the eyes cause I was forced to draw a style I wasn't used to (stupid eye liner). I finished Kusuriuri after almost giving up and now I'm gonna start his other self (you know, the golden one). That shouldn't be too hard once I get started. Back view, haven't done that in like four years so this will be interesting.
//Soccer//
I've been following the FIFA World Cup. Well yeah, I said that in my last journal. I can't believe Switzerland actually beat Spain (Spain won the European Cup)!!!!! The goal was so epic. You guys should all go to espn.com and watch it XD I want either Germany or the Netherlands to win it all both are pretty good teams and with Italy tying against Paraguay makes me think their getting rusty, like ENGLAND! Man, it was painful to watch such a great team total trip over their own feet and come away with a tie against Algeria. COME ON IGGY!!! GET IT TOGETHER MAN!!! I would've loved to have seen the game we played against Slovenia, but it was 6:30 am and there was no way I was getting up that early. Anyway, Slovenia was leading 2-0 through almost the whole game and then we came and tied it with about 40 minutes left. We WOULD have won if the referee hadn't disreguarded (is that the right word?) a goal that we made. Our guy wasn't offsides and he was like, the ONLY person in the whole box not fouled on. So no one really knows what that was all about. So we came out with a tie as well, so we would have to win against Algeria in order to advance with Slovenia.
My dad has an idea why Americans aren't that big into soccer. He calls it the Nation's Collective ADD. You see, soccer is like, one of the only sports with continuous play. In football, there is a play and then they stop and start the game again. Baseball/softball, there are innings in which there is a batter vs. pitcher and then the game is stopped while the teams switch from offense to defense. Basketball is the closest to continuous play except for the fact that the court is really small compared to a soccer field and so it's easy to go from one side to the other in order to make a basket compared to soccer. However, in soccer, play keeps going until someone scores a goal and then the play restarts, but that can take the whole game. Basically, there isn't much scoring in soccer and that isn't exciting enough for us Americans.
Leaving for DC on the 6th! So don't plan anything the week I'm gone!!!!
