Hey guys! Sorry for my absence. Technically, I've not been gone, I switched journals and I hadn't posted an update link. The reason for that was because I stopped blogging for a while (so surprising, I know XD) and didn't wanna plug it here without some entries to back it up. So now that's been done (and I got a friendly nudge from a certain ninja *lols*), here is my new journal: misskirie! (Kirie being my official internet alias from now on) Please feel free to add me to your friend lists and I'll do the same in return. *holds out cookies* <3

So yeah, good bye veradi journal, hello to misskirie! =D

Sorry for the long absence. I swear, I've had one of the most hectic two weeks of my life. First off, my work schedule got all messed up with the 4th of July weekend, then me and Greg had plans all weekend, more messed up work schedule and then to top it all off, my mom got put in the hospital for nearly a week. So I've been having to go to the hospital daily to visit and stay with her. But she came home to today *YAY*, so hopefully everything will settle back down and my life can resume some normalcy. =) (that and I can finally catch up on Ouran XD)

*YAY* for episode 13 of Ouran. =3 I've watched parts one and two so far, three will have to wait until tomorrow. ;_; So far, here are my thoughts.....

( Under cut for spoilers.... )

This episode screamed "ICONS" to me, so I made some. The quality isn't as good as my first batch, cause I used caps off Youtube to make them. But they still look good. <3 I'll try making more after watching the last part of the episode, so stay tuned. XD

( And here are some animated epi-13 icons! )

I'm 22 years old today.... yay.

So far it's just like it's been my past birthdays, just another miserable day. It's also raining and storming, which doesn't help at all.

I don't even feel like blogging....

*yawns* I'm trying to watching Ouran episode 10, bit by very little bit. I think I'm about half way through, but at this rate, I'll have to finish it tomorrow. >.< But what I've seen is great. Tamaki and the twins are totally cracking me up. XD And Mori sharing his strawberry was precious. ♥ Oh! And to complete the experience, I'm eating a lovely (and very tiny ;_;) microwave meal fit for a commoner!

Let's see... I've also worked a bit on my fanfic tonight. I've not been working on it at all lately, but I'm trying. In fact, I've not been writing at all, which is really bad. I enjoy writing, but it seems the internet is distracting me more than I thought. Writing also exhausts me, as much physically as it does mentally, so I tend to use the excuse, "I'm tired, I dun feel like it right now". XP But exhaustion or no, I must start writing again if I am ever to get any better. While I'm thinking of it, I'll make myself a note to go through my stuff and find something decent to share. And as soon as I get somewhere with my Death Note fanfic, I'll definitely post it as well. =)

Oh kyaa~! Haruhi's dad has arrived on the scene. Poor, poor misunderstood Tamaki. He is so freaking adorable (and so very clueless), I wanna pick him up and squeeze him. XD

Wow~! My icons were a smashing success. =O Now I wanna go make more....

I played Final Fantasy VIII tonight and now I'm actually getting somewhere. *gasp*

*grumbles* I have to work today... not fair... not fair at all. Saturdays are supposed to be lazy, wear-your-pjs-all-day-long days. >.<

Sorry for the lack of substance... I'm so tired and sleepy... zzzzZZZZzzzz

As promised, here are all my Ouran High School Host Club animated icons. And I'm proud to say I have a whopping 40 to offer. OMG, is it just me or have I been bored? XD

RULES------>>>
#1 If you don't mind, comment if you take something. =)
#2 These were intended to be used as is. However, if you really wanna customize it, let me know first. K?
#3 Credit me @ veradi.
#4 DO NOT claim these as your own. I worked really hard on these, so for the love of cheese and bacon, just don't do it.

Preview


( Things are gonna get a little crazy... )

I watched episode 9 of Ouran tonight (watched 8 yesterday) on Youtube. *LOLOLOLOL* I haven't laughed that hard in a while. XD Kyaa~ how I wish for these files to be on my computer to watch at my leisure. ;_;

OMG, I forgot to mention this (not from lack of excitement, mind you, just blogging way to late at night XD), but Greg got us tickets to see Nickelback in Knoxville! I'm so uber excitement about it, since this will be my first big name concert. But September 9th is so far away. :x

Owie... I have a big, ol' blister on my palm from running the Boot machine tonight. It's about the size of a nickel, cooshy and gooshy, and hurts like the dickens. Stupid MF and causing me pain. It was just a month ago I got my thumb caught in a belt grinder. NOT a pretty sight. Let's just say there was blood, meat, and charred skin. >.< I cried so hard, you have no idea. It's healed up now, albeit still a bit tender times. ~_~

Sorry for the leave of absence. I've been so busy lately with work, Greg's birthday, and the fact my brother is still being extremely selfish with the phone. Not only that, I've been doing a lot of things with the my journal. At the moment, I'm giving the sponsored account a try. It's not so bad and the extra options (icons + moodtheme + image space) are very cool. Perhaps in the coming months I'll be able to afford a paid account. *_*

And now that I mentioned new stuff, I gave the Scrapbook a try tonight and uploaded images of my kittens. ♥ You can view them HERE. Doing the little commentaries were fun. XD

Also over the weekend (and tonight) I made a bunch of animated Host Club icons (most of which somehow turned out to be featuring Tamaki o.O). I had a ball making them. =3 Hopefully I'll get the chance to post them tomorrow. For anyone who cares, you can look at my userpics for a preview, since I'm using most of them myself. XD My sister caught me making them and said I was "obsessed". Me obsessed? 'O' Never *sarcastic grin*

And OMG, I had forgot what todays date was ... 6.6.06.... creepy *shutters*
