Guys. I am currently eating ultimate buttered popcorn as we speak and i have no idea what to watch... any brilliant suggestions?
...you've never had apple pie.
Foresight unto Darkness: The Mystery of No Heart No Heart, is one of the newest bosses integrated into the Birth By Sleep storyline. Majestic is his demeanor, and abstruse are his origins. One can only speculate this stranger cladded in familiar armor, and that's what i hope to accomplish here. So many questions and not enough answers... Feel free to state your hypotheses on No Heart, but I shall initiate the thread with mine. I Believe that No Heart may be the Lingering Segment of Master Xehanort. Reasoning: Master Eraqus told Aqua and Terra that their armor would protect them from the darkness while traveling to other worlds. If every keyblade wielder had keyblade armor prior to Kingdom Hearts 1, then No Heart is the keyblade armor of Master Xehanort. It can be implied that keyblade armor is immune to the darkness. Hence the reason Eraqus told Terra and Aqua to use it when traveling. When Xehanort possesses Terra, He initiates his keyblade armor. Since keyblade armor protects one against darkness, a part of Terra was saved within his armor. Xehanort at one point was not consumed by the mysteries of darkness and the Keyblade war. However, when he realized his keyblade armor no longer served him any purpose, he discarded it. Upon this act, his armor retained some of Xehanort's memories, and awaits for the select chosen to overcome it... The only thing that strikes me as odd is Xehanort's Keyblade is in his possession... Any ideas on the subject?
Wow! This is actually pretty interesting. (Hope it doesn't happen to me, being an artist an all...) I'm actually pretty glad that i live in a country where i have the freedom to draw what i want, this sure is a real shame. I condole for him, as i can't even imagine what i would do if i couldn't draw. Drawing is my life, and so is his... they pretty much "killed him" in doing this...

So i was looking on the Washington Post, and i saw this article and thought it to be intriguing... For more information: SOURCE 86 terrestrial species and 91 percent marine species have yet to be discovered?! Boy we haven't even begun to explore if that is close to accurate...
So i had made a picture of Cloud Strife in casual wear and i am kinda curious to hear your feedback. I wanted to make something that he would wear so i hope it suits him... So hope you enjoy, and comments are always welcome! Spoiler
Title explains it. You can also say your favorite Japnase Band and Artist if you like. Here's mine- Band- FLiP. They're an Okinawan all chick band, great music. my Favorite song from them is "Nagai Kiss" Artist- This is really difficult to decide, either Gackt or Utada Hikaru... I'd say Gackt. My favorite song from him is "Episode.0" Your turn.
So about 3 months ago, we had an art show at my high school and I was in AP studio art. This class was only available for Seniors and each one of us in AP art had to have an installation in the art show. (Clusterfudge of work and make it look good.) Quick background- My teacher was a crazy "evil" version of Ms. Frizzle from Magic school bus and she hated everything about Japan. *tear* She loved the classics, so i gave her "classics". she was hardcore on art philosophy. (in other words, everything has meaning, even subliminal.) *currently rolling my eyes* So i thought i'd share it with you, my theme was Humans and Techology. (I completely understand if you don't get any of this... i don't either.) Spoiler "Music in my Head" Spoiler "Eye and the Wheel" Spoiler "Iron Fist" Spoiler "Metallic Honor" Spoiler "Technospine" Spoiler "Vitruvian Cyborg" Sorry that these are sooo big, look at the bright side, you can easily see all my mistakes now:) Hahaa anyways, i'd love to hear feedback. (if any...)
*Sigh* my freakin' Wacom tablet broke, now im in soo much trouble... i need it for work, for art. this really sucks... exact model- Spoiler the connecting part in the top-left is busted. it kinda looks like the USB port, but it's smaller and the "rim" of it cracked.... FML (freakin' mindblowingly lame)
Join us, we have cookies... and milk. Convinced? You should be! Hahaa but seriously, it's free to join, and we could always use more brilliant minds for discussions!
So i found this on my computer and decided to post it and see if i get any feedback... This was originally for my high school newspaper, and the style kinda looks like Calvin and Hobbes... but hope you get the punchline and get a good laugh. (or at least a happy smirk...) Any comments, and/or critiques would be greatly appreciated! BTW this is about a year old... i really need to make more modern stuff... Spoiler
Ok, so many of you may have read my thread in help with life, if you haven't and you want to know the full story behind this sonnet, then feel free to do so. So, I wrote this in Shakespearean Sonnet style. For those who are interested, here's the structure of a Shakespearean Sonnet: Spoiler III. The English (or Shakespearian) Sonnet: The English sonnet has the simplest and most flexible pattern of all sonnets, consisting of 3 quatrains of alternating rhyme and a couplet: a b a b c d c d e f e f g g As in the Spenserian, each quatrain develops a specific idea, but one closely related to the ideas in the other quatrains. So without further ado, i present to you Llave de Espada's Sonnet I- When I first glanced upon your face, So radiant was thy heavenly beauty. My heart's beat quickened its pace, Thou art the only one to enchant me. Thy hair, 'tis more elegant than the sun, Your eyen, luminous pools that delve deep within my soul. And when the day is done, I dream of you whence I sleep. But on the toll of dismal day, Thou lovest another before I'd chanced. Love's tidal wave swept thee away, Now in the warm embrace of romance. Fear thee not, my sister, instead, become his consort. Because I still have adoration, your decision I will support. Hahaa it may be "in another launguage" to you, but i would love to hear your thoughts and criticisms! BTW- "eyen" is archaic (very old fashioned) plural of eye. Just thought i'd add this after someone thought i misspelled eyes.
So i bought the Doctor Who Season 6: Part One off of iTunes last night and i watched it. I loved it, big fan. (I'm American- quick shout out to my UK friends: you guys have brilliant shows!) I've followed the series since the show continued back up in 2005 with Billie Piper (totally smashing) and Christipher Eccleston. Loved David Tennant the most, still getting used to Matt Smith, but he's cool... What was your favorite parts/episodes/whatever of Season 6 part 1? And what didn't you like about it? (if at all possible?!) here's mine: Spoiler I loved the Doctor's Wife episode the best. I loved how he finally saw a personified version of the TARDIS. It was funny, i loved how he asked her what her name was, and after all those years, she say's its "sexy." Hahaa it was hilarious that the Doctor was calling her "sexy thing" the rest of the episode:) (i gotta use that as my catchphrase...) I also was glad we finally know who River Song is, the daughter of Amy and Rory. I loved the reaction the Doctor had when River told him to read the Galifrian (dunno if that's spelled right...) on the cradle. The only i didn't like was it felt like things were too fast pace, and i kinda missed the traditional Christmas special first episode...
So this is the third installation of the Bleach movie series. I won't really get into a whole lot on the plot, but it is a movie i hope is released soon in English dub. This has been out since December 13, 2008 in Japan, so it has been quite a while. They already have a fourth movie that came out last year, but that's for another thread... I did get a chance to watch it in english subs, and it was really good! If you have seen it, i would love to hear what you loved best about it. Here's my thoughts on it... Spoiler I liked the fact that Ichigo has to fight everyone again, but he has bankai and hollowfication, so he kicks some serious butt! i also love the ending where Ichigo tells Rukia that they may have met in their other lives and no matter what happens, you will always be friends. I was just thinking that before he said that and i was so surprised when he said that!
There’s been a lot on my mind lately, and the one that’s been most reoccurring is romantic relationships… All my life I had crushes on girls since kindergarten, you know, the innocent kind. In Eighth grade, I had finally mustered what little courage I had to tell a girl I liked that I liked her. (She was the third to last I liked, for the record) She was not interested and she would never talk to me afterwards. That hurt, but I knew I was young, and there were more gals out there! So time continued its course, and in the summer between my ninth and tenth grade years, (2008) I had gotten a summer job. There I had met great friends and I am still friends with them to this day. (and forever) But I had also met a girl that I really liked, and I, having a “past†of relationships, was afraid to tell her, but I wanted to be friends first. So about a year goes by and I work with them occasionally throughout that year. Then summer came again, (2009) and we had new employees. At this time I still had feelings for this gal, and I tried not to make it obvious, but unfortunately, she caught on, and was not interested. She was very subtle about it, but I could see it. She would say hi and all, but whenever she would get the chance, she would slip away or “not hear†what I asked. Then another friend of mine in my work (she was a girl) told me that the girl I liked asked her to keep me away from her. My friend was “on my side†and told me that maybe she isn’t the one. This was really shocking to me, I never acted awkward around the girl I liked, and in no way was I advancing and making her uncomfortable. I was just trying to be a friend… So time goes by yet again, and it’s the summer between my Junior and Senior year. (2010) I was still working at my job, and things were calmed down, the girl I liked was starting to be more comfortable around me, seeing that I only wanted to be friends. I confess to you that there was still lingering feelings for her, but for the most part, they were quenched by time. Then I had met another girl that joined our work that summer, and she was absolutely beautiful! She was a year older than I was, but I didn’t mind that. She was really kind; she had a great personality, laughed at my witty jokes (sincerely) and we had a lot of funny sarcasm battles. It felt great being around her and time flew by. She and I would talk on the phone every night that summer, and when I showed her what I liked to listen to; she showed an interest in my music, even though she had never listened to it before. (I like Japanese Pop, or J-Pop for short) Every night I couldn’t sleep, I kept thinking of her and how great it would be to be together. I think she was interested in me, but I was too afraid to confess, because rejection had been my best friend in the past. I think that was the fatal err that will haunt me for the rest of my life… Time takes its course and it is now around January 2011, I hadn’t really talked to her because since the summer had ended, she was on vacations and never replied to my simple “hey how’s it going?†texts. I finally get a hold of her and she says that she had been busy and was talking to her boyfriend on Skype. (at this point, my heart literally stopped beating.) She goes on and tells me she met him at a camp in September. (so the time I was with her in the summer, she was single, not taken, I should’ve acted…) All I could say was congratulations. My heart ached and hatred filled my soul as I thought of another man with the girl I loved, I couldn’t stop thinking about it. At times, it made me sick as to how my window of opportunity closed so fast. I just couldn’t take it all in… In May, my work friends and I met up for a friends Birthday party, and she brings him along. He’s 21 or something, she’s 19, and I’m 18, so there was a difference I suppose. I decided just to see how he acts; I wasn’t going to start anything. I got to know him and he’s a great guy. That night when I got home, I wrote a Shakespearian Sonnet (I know, cheesy, but it worked, it was the only way to let go…) about how I felt and how I finally see her as a sister… it was hard to let go, and it hurt, but it felt so relieving. Life’s good, takin’ it easy as a bachelor… … And then last night, I had a dream of a girl in my life in the recent past, and we here going out. I don’t have any feelings for her, nor am I attracted to her, but it puzzled me deeply… I don’t dream very often for some reason, so this also hit me. (Of all things to dream about…) I feel really alone I suppose, and I never had the chance (and the honor) to love a girl like I desire to… I know this isn’t as severe as other’s stories but if anyone has advice or whatever, it would be greatly appreciated. And if you are a girl and your reading this, I would also love to hear what you have to say as well.
I loved this game when i was a kid! It was released: EU December 12, 1997 NA May 31, 1998 JP June 24, 1999 The Jersey Devil shares more characteristics to that of a bat. His primary mission is to stop Dr. Knarf, who tries to stop Jersey Devil with mutated vegetables. Jersey Devil uses his punch, jumping, and gliding abilities to defeat his enemies. In numerous areas of the game, it is necessary to collect all five letters of Knarf's name to proceed, adding a puzzle element to the gameplay. There are six areas in the game with three levels each: two main levels, and a secret bonus level unlockable if the player's Nitro power level is high enough. Have you played this game, if so, explain what you loved best about it. I loved running around and trying to find the letters. the pumpkin head kids scared me when i was young! hahaa. Spoiler

For those of you love the classic "I love Lucy," It's Lucille Ball's would be 100th Birthday today!!! (Well almost for some... August 6th.) So in honor of her and a great show, which episode was your favorite? Mine was the one where she was trying to get a job at the candy factory and the chocolates were going down the line too fast and she started eating them to keep up! hahaa. (or you could just say Happy Birthday, or the both!)
The title is self explanatory. Few rules- Please don't use any vulgar language, limit cursing if possible (keep in mind, we have younger members.) or hate messages in your post. I don't know if this is something interesting to do, but i thought it would be. Have fun!
