Sometimes things happen.

My laptop has arrived!
This is probably going to be the last update from Idril for a while. Alas, I knew her well.

Elbereth is here now. I guess I've gone with the name, and it's not like I can change it now that I've started using it. :D

I was a bit worried that they'd given me a black one by mistake, because the laptop was upside down in the styrofoam box. Heh.

PHOTOSPAM ( Behind the cut )

Okay, there's no pictures right now, because I can't see the point in putting new photos on Idril when I'll only have to take them off/move them to Elbereth in a matter of hours anyway. So... We will wait till tonight. :)

Did you know that in the first episode of Scooby Doo, the gang breaks into a museum? I'm serious. I'm not reading into it or anything, they literally break in to a museum. Shaggy climbs a ladder and goes in through a high window. It's surprising!

I hope everyone had a good Easter. I'm back now, by the way, however probably not for too long. :O

I'm annoyed. There's some DDM (Digital Design Media, for those in the know) assignment due on friday that I only just found out about. Not today, (thank God), but I would have liked to have spent today working on that rather than rolling around on the floor doing nothing all day, you know?

Idril is 250gb fatter, in the brain. Yes. I brought a new HDD. Whooo! So now I have more than 120MB - yes megabytes - of space to play with. Joy! And next month - a graphics card. Then in another few months... I think it will be time for something else. Probably a motherboard. Idril's is slowly creeping towards obsolecence (word?) and senility. However, it made the harddrive cheaper. :O does that mean I won't be able to use the old harddrives on a new thinger. Woe. Woe woe. Maybe it would be better to wait longer and then.. do stuff. Or something. But it's all cool.

iTunes is annoying. I want to have music on iLlama that's not on my computer, is it such a difficult thing to understand?

*rolls around on the floor some more*
Hurrrrgggggh.

I did lots of drawing last night. Some on CAD, to develop skillz, and some on paper. Mainly of Manticores, but also of Link and Volvagia. Link versus Volvagia, even. It's going pretty well, but Link is pretty poorly proportioned. Parts of him are cool, but that's annyoing, because I'll have to try to make them fit each other. Oh well. At least I don't have to worry about poses any more. It would be useful to have someone to model poses for me at all times. I can do some myself, however I'm not exactly a well-muscled man-thing as I sometimes require, and my Anatomy For Fantasy Artists ref book, while good, doesn't actually contain that many good poses. And the stock art on DA, when it involved well-muscled man-things, is very rarely artistic or well lit. So I have to use my imagination, and low-res pictures of Link that other people have scanned from the player manual things. No dodgy interpretations of imagination, prz.

Also I have something to go to on the First of June. In Bunbury, at night. It's a Comedy festival! It should be fun. However this means I will have to be uber ultra organised so that I actually get a minimum of 7 hours sleep on the night before Folio day.

SURELY THIS IS A FEAT WORTHY OF LEGEND.

Although all it would really take is self-restraint and organisation...
....

What.

I'm off to do interesting things now. No, you don't get to find out what said interesting things are. Moose.

Also someone please tag me with one of those shuffle your ipod and describe yourself memes, because I've felt so left out all this time.

FINALLY

OMG THERE ARE CAPEY THINGS IN MAGAZINES. I WILL HAVE TO BUY THEM. Little grey things with buttans that just cover your shoulders and have no sleves!
THIS IS LIKE WHEN NAUTICAL JACKETS WERE EVERYWHERE - UNEXPECTED AND AWESOME.
Except I still has no dollars. Damn.
*spins around*
I also like hats.
And pie.

ALSO I HAS NEW MUSICS! They're good musics. OOooo. They have the names of extinct animals in them. SURELY THIS BAND MUST BE GLORIOUS BEYOND ALL MORTAL COMPARE.

YES. All caps are always necessary.

Um. Yeah. I have some music. I'm not actually listening to Mastodon anymore. I felt like something else. Now I'm listening to Opeth. I think. Yes. I don't like Nine Inch Nails. This saddens and dissapoints me. Hurt is just about the emoest song I've ever heard, I think. Now I'm listening to Ozzy. The version of Hurt sung by... that old guy. Yeah. That was much cooler. My appologies NIN fans. I TRIED DAMNIT. There is a band listed here called Porcupine Tree. This pleases me.
Um. I'm going.
