Perhaps in future I should keep my mouth shut. I've got another 7 days off college starting today but not in the way I would've liked.
I got flu, before you ask I have no idea which type. Well according to the "flu helpline" I have at least. So I'm not allowed back in college till next Thursday, which is bad because we've started lessons on coursework in Comms. Not to mention I feel like utter shite.
Nearly everything hurts...well hurts twice as much as usual.
I'm not gonna go on about symptoms and crap, just giving you guys a heads up.
Unfortunately I'm not going to be on the computer much, more resting and fighting this thing are in order.
And now it's back to bed for me, joy!

I need another half-term, stat! Only 8 weeks until the holiday break...yay!
Well I'm not leaving college (yet). Just dropping the fast-track politics, because I know that's what's gonna cause all the problems come January. Aaaaaaand I don't really need it. Still a shame though since I'm enjoying it (the subject, the groups...meh) and the teacher is such a nice guy. He understands and everything, so does my tutor, but he's going to see if I can just drop the A2 part of the course and continue with the AS but I'm not sure I'd want to do that. Well I would but it won't help much. Not to mention I apparantly have to wait for word from the faculty head. Seems they're not fond of people, you know, changing their minds and such. I might just have to pull out the ol' puppy dog eyes on them if things don't go right!
Mini-rant cease!

Is it just me or is DA a little bit weird atm? Journal history and shoutboxes and stuff seems to have sneaked their way onto journals making it impossible to read the right-most side. Hmm.

Ah sweet half-term, precious time to relax, hang with friends, do some writing and so on. And hey! Only one bit of homework, not too bad at all. Was going to go to the cinema tomorrow but there's funk all on! Lame...

Welledy I've been left all alone since yesterday evening, all of today and tomorrow morning. Parents went out on a little trip thingy.
It's bloody quiet here. And what have I done with this precious unobserved time?
...watched a lot of stuff on t.v. Movies, some shows, and one bat-shit crazy anime film a friend lent me. Seriously...it was fucked up, amazing art but I'm just confused now.

Still ill, can't stop coughing, meh. Oh and to all those watching me for CotD stuff, I'm really, really, really sorry for my slowness, I just suck.

Seem to be having a mid-life crises as well! XD And I'm not even 40-50 years old yet!
Just really unsure if I still want to be in education. Got a lot of thinking to do in the up coming weeks.

And now some quiz/memes because technically I got tagged, both by (who's back! YAY!)...well technically the second was tagged as "your penis" and since I'm a guy that applies to me I guess.

Why did you join this site?
To watch people and their art! Seriously, before all I had was a load of peoples pages linked into my favourites, joining was far easier.

Name 3 of your favorite artists on DA.
Urm...hmmm...that's difficult, I have more than 3 T_T

What deviant do you admire because of their personality?
"Admire" is a strong word, but that's not to say that I don't love peoples personalities on here, you guys are awesome, it's just I don't really admire anyone's. Might be because I don't know ya in real life. :C

Huuuuuumans! And pretty much any and every creature, comic, thing, in my mind.

Meh, kind of, it's how I recognise people's comments and so on quickly.

Have you ever suggested a Daily Deviation?
Nope, wouldn't know how to.

Everyone has considered leaving DA once or twice. Have you? Why?
No, don't see why I'd need to really.

1. How old are you?
18, apparantly this makes me "old" according to my friends.

2. Gender?
I've done psychology so I can say masculine, as gender doesn't mean the same as sex. I'll take of my arrogant psychologist hat now...
I'll assume this means sex so male. :3

3. Gender preference
...assuming the same as above, female please. ^^

::Your honest, balls-to-the-wall opinion on::

4. Furries
Meh, I don't hate them, don't love them, don't mind them I guess.

5. Fangirls
Nothing wrong with being a fan, granted it's not the creepy super obsessive type. You know the ones I mean.

6. Fanboys
Same as above I guess.

7. Yaoi.
Each to their own, just not for me.

8. Critique, regardless of art form or genre.
I demand it! I don't like giving it unless it's constructive but I wish I got more so I could improve.

9. Manga-style illustration
It's alright. *actuallyreadsmanga*

10. Manga-style illustration with a Western influence
Sure I've come across it just can't remember what it's like!

11. Rap music
Not on my watch!

12. Mainstream pop music.
Meh.

13. 'GRRL GAMERS'
Hells yeah! Not enough around! Or maybe there are and I'm not looking in the right places...

14. Women in general
Are cool, if impossible to understand sometimes! Why must you play games with us? WHY!?

15. Men in general
Yeah, most of us are douches. I'd like to take this moment to apologise because of those douches giving out the wrong impression. Some of us aren't that bad.

16. World Politics
Yeah...not touching that with a 10 ft. pole thanks.


17. American politicians, especially George W. Bush


18. DeviantART
Is cool?

19. Gay folks, whether we're talking boy-on-boy or girl-on-girl
Like I said, each to their own, I got nothing against them! Do what feels right and everyone who says otherwise/is homophobic can have a nice big cup of shut the fuck up.

20. Bisexuality
Same as above!

21. Japan
Has invented some strange and fucked up stuff but also awesome stuff to counter that. Good food too.

22. Pedophiles and Pedophilia
I actually feel sorry for them as they don't have a say in their fetish but I condemn those who don't control it! The fuckers that make child pornography and so on can have whats coming to them for all I care, and that's probably not enough in the first place.

23. The Internet Male/Internet Tough Guy
The whatnow? Guys who act tough online but are cowards irl? That makes me smile.

As a British person I must act all full of snobbery here and say it's full of loud, obnoxious people, etc
Nah I kid, I kid, it's a big place, with lots of guns and stuff, I wouldn't want to live there to be honest. I got nothing against it really. You guys make awesome movies, games, shows etc (not to say that we don't make equally awesome stuff here mind!). ^^

30. Tag one other person:
No. >:C

Journal titles are difficult to think of...anyway quick update before bed.

Ah what's happened since last I posted? Some more family came down, this time for a week and left last Sunday. That was alright, not too bad, nice to see them and all.
We got the cats back on Sunday as well (Yay!), Nan's afraid of cats so we had to put them in the catery, poor little buggers, but now they're back being loud and annoying and huggable.

Oh and got some virus or something on Monday, came home from college early which sucks. When I was younger if I got ill it was great "I'm ill? Woohoo day off!" but now I actually want to learn and really need to be in for every lesson this sucks!
Oh and they're taking my blood again tomorrow! I found out about this today.

Ah well, hopefully I'll be up and...well I can't run much so I guess I'll be up and walking casually in no time! XD

Anyway, here's a list of some of the things I'm working on:
Ship design for *TheDarkestPrince's contest
Finishing touches on Astrum Venatus species, primary and secondary character refs and audition. (Check out Astrum Venatus! There might be extra time to enter and there's still ten days left for the original deadline! It's a writers OCT tournament! Go look now! Here's a link -> [link]
Character ref for the second season of Blood-Sport (audition already finished).
Intermission chapter for surviving character in *avatarjk137's tournament.
SE for The Exchange of Rauris recruiting people for the Coalition of the Damned.
BS season one final battle result with Lon & Silver + two other IZ themed comic things
