There are going to be changes made to my friending policy, more a live an learn experience. I'm still sorting out what I'm posting and not posting, I'll probably unlock certain things, but changing commenting policies after a month.

( I have to put down three absolute NO's now, of which I have no tolerance for: )

If you have friending me, do tell me. But comments are disabled until I work everything out. You can comment here.

This journal is mostly open, the posts fluctuate from open to close depending on my mood. Events and picture posts will most likely be open. Post with idea and travel plans will most likely be closed.



This Blog has:
• Comics, art and arty things, EXPLICIT food pornography and youtube videos sharing events.
• Fanfics. You can reach my fanfiction.net account. I am under the username of fights and you can travel there through time and space here.
• Occasional updates on who's working on what doujinshi/fancomic/fun stuff, what event is going on and if I attend a speedy, gushing report.
• Occasionally I sell stuff and ask for advice on selling stuff.
• Comics/Zines/Book-Making
• Batman/Joker, almost all incarnations. Which is my greatest sin.

This Blog does not have:
• Personal feelings (unless they are poetry or writing), no "dear diary entries." If you comment, I may response intensely and I am SUPER INTENSE!!
• Articles on Race Issues, I do have a blog where I deal with that separately. Do no ask me questions on race, sex, educational practices, feminism, fat issues or even what or where that blog is.



Here's a roundabout description of how I am, you can also reach my info page here:
=> I like hamburgers and eating.
=> I make comics, books, zines, anything you can print and make things out.
=> I occasionally sew, knit and crochet.
=> I am well versed in race issues, but do not ask me anything on this LJ. I will ignore you or re-direct you to other sites. This is my art journal.
=> I am Buddhist, but I do un-Buddhist things like fight and drink. Which will be weighed at my hearing after I die, thank you very much.
=> I am easy-going about making friends, they come and they go. But I (still) like to enjoy things while they last.
=> I am a direct person, if I am serious I will do my best to ask directly.

That's right I got (another) A and an A+... On the downside, I am dying from being cold. ;-;

A reminder for Christmas Cards, I bought mah Japanese paper so it's happening!!!

Gyu... I had another presentation. It was on Vocaloid. Apparently I'm a triple threat when it comes to presentations. I kept spilling tea on my white shirt, ARGGGHHH!!!

Also I fail at friggan.... Friggan flowchart, they're really complex. At least because I'm simple. I should link to one of my prof's website so you can see how horifying our school year has been.

I’m being paid for being in class! XD I’m saving up the money to pay for a trip. YAYYYYY!!
I’m feeling better now, XD Yeah.

Do you remember LOVE?
Do you remember when I used to love you?

Comments are screened.

I hope.

YOO!!!

Hey everyone, have you been sleeping? I HAVEN’T! XD LOL My days have pretty much dedicated to homework, which is cool because I am getting A’s so far... And I just got my first A+.

Friday: 2 hours of sleep
Saturday: 5 hours of sleep
Sunday: 3 hours of sleep
Monday: 4 hours of sleep
TOTAL = 14 hours of sleep over the last four days. I miscalculated, I thought it was 10 _

I’ve mostly been having school related nightmares, so I can’t sleep hahahah.

Doujinka Festival
Holy snap, what a BLAST! I was totally seated between zanazac and the lovely ladies, romanshoubu, loverspit and pandachop. I came in just for socialization with fellow comic artists, grad school left me with zero time to do anything. I changed my covers at the last minute to black and white... ALSO SUDDEN YO WA SHOCK singing is win! Also Inui is weak against peer pressure. I’m joking.

I was totally pal-ing around with zanazac all the time. I felt bad about the you know what and they constant you know what, you know Zanarc. I will e-mail you about getting those book later in the week. Hohohohohoho. When I realized I tried to cheer someone with a plate (you heard me), I realized I was too sleepy and had to go home. It was quite an adventure and I was crushed in several subway doors. I had two hours of sleep.

Glad to see skwerly, yur name is so hard to spell. She could see my soul dying in my eyes. It's dyin' right now.

And no time to put into zine format, I also left at like.......... 3:20pm because I was falling behind in grad school (LOL, OH NOOOO I’LL GET A B... OH NOOOOOOOO! Who gives a shit!) I have a lot of presentations... In fact I had two, one was a presentation on a system we were re-designing and the other one was
I met a LOT OF COOL PEOPLE, A LOOOOOT! A guy and I fangirled Hokuto no Ken and I think his girlfriend liked him a little less. ATATATATATTATATATTATATATTATATTATATATT!—WATAAAAAAA!

October 31st – Doujinshi Festival
November 1st –Canzine

*sobs*
Double thanks to Sarah-san for letting me crash during these crazy times. I’ll give you my comic copies after both events.

Also, will anyone be kind to share portfolio links. I'm designing my new portfolio website in flash and I need a reference/start point.

YARGH! I’M A POWERHOUSE!!!!!!!!!!! I’m pretty much beating up my homework and winning. My teacher is going to teach me how to make explosions in 3D max. I’ve been hanging out with friends and stuff and it’s been pretty hard, but my motto is "If I don't have time, I will always try to make time."

I've learnt CSS and man, only in like two weeks. MY TEACHER IS AWESOME! No one could make more sense out of CSS for me adn now I'm making my own code. Crap, if you told me, “hey Litda, did you know people will start calling you Litda and you would be a group leader and you would be in grad school and also be exercising four days a week” two years ago, I would have punched you. Now my awesome levels have reach triple threat levels.

I’m getting really far on my guitar playing, several more 15 to 20 minute sessions and I’ve gotten really fast. I’m seven weeks into my exercising and I’m happy with my progress, my legs are killer and they even beat my toned definition in junior high. Working out helps me deal with constantly getting dumped, forgotten and shafted by people and I’m no longer depressed about it. I’m glad I was finally able to close this chapter of my life and move on. It’s the one hamburger a week diet, LOL. Seriously, I WAS eating 7 hamburgers a week and losing weight but that was because people were acting shitty to me.

I will try to attend BOTH Word on the Street and The Joe Shuster Award Ceremony tomorrow. Expect a report and video. I pay $47.00 a week for a GTA pass, so I’m going out world! SUCK IT!

I'm seriously considering starting an Oenbu at my college.

I'll poke my head into the student office on Monday to see what type of clubs they have, my second idea was a mahjong club (even though I succcckkkkk).

So far this is my schedule:

Monday:
8am - wake up

12pm-2:59pm WEB INTERACTIVE PROTOTYPING 1
3pm-5:59pm  PROJECT DEVELOPMENT 1

Tuesday:

8am-10:59am -  3D INTERACTIVE PROTOTYPING I (REALLY COOL & FUN)

I already have five assignments. It's like.... straight into the hellfire.

Last post before going off to bed. I lost like... I don't know how many pounds in four weeks, but I've gone down 4 inches on my waist since Montreal. Mostly due to stress and over working, I've been trying to take it easy but it's pretty much impossible. I dropped my overeating that has been keeping me afloat four weeks ago and because of that I've gone from a size eight to a size six. I've been sick for two weeks, mostly with the sniffles. Haven't gotten any better though.

I need to buy more weights, they're a bit pricey, but I like working out in the comforts of my own home. I do a pretty haphazzard workout schedule. Usually I do stretches, then curl up, leg excercises and the lift weights then do weight lifting. Usually I do either cycling, skip rope... There is a rowing machine that looks a bit interesting... I've been pacing myself and edging up slowly, I was hoping it would combat my sickness but I guess that's all from depression after Montreal. I know everyone is going to say, "you're no supposed to lose weight that fast." But I was eating 7 hamburgers (or something to that nature) and still losing weight, by stopping my binge eating I just lost all that weight I was trying to replace with fatty foods.

I've also added more vegetables to my diet and nothing has really improved. I'll probably start of Vitamin C. I promised myself 20 minutes of food prep time and that adds more vegetation to my internerary, our crop is in full swing. I added eggplant to my tomato sauce and I really love it. I'll make Litda fried rice today or tmmrw. Our tomato crop is just about to turn, I'm planning to make ketchup, yummmmmm... I made salsa today, it was very yum!!!

I'm starting school today as it's just turned 12:10pm. I have Project Development and Multimedia Projects for a total of six hours straight. there is no assigned teacher to Proj. Development. That worries me... Tmmrw I'll probably pass out. I have two classes that start at 8AM on both Thursday and Friday now and that's balls. I'll have to buy a YRT and TTC pass because it'll cost me 48 dollars a week to go downtown.

I have to pick up my painting Saturday. KINDA MAD because my dad said we were going shopping on Sunday, which was the last day I could go. I'm just really busy. I'm a busy person.

Starting  the forth I got back to school, here are some stuff that has happened since then:
=> My area was hit by a huricanne, my house is fine, My father with outside at the time soooo guess who dragged him in. YES, the one that hit the GTA. Pictures laterrr.
=> Also, I got a new computer. It's the HP Wacom laptop that you can draw on. The neck twists. My dad kind of owes me, as he hasn't bought me a car unlike I dunno... My brother, whom he bought three. But unlike my brother, I have to pay him back. =-= You know being a girl/woman is rough and tough, manliness ain't got nothing on this shit. Get called a whore all the time, man, being a guy is NOT tough.
=> Got new glasses, may become blind soon.... >_>;;; My eyes are in extreme decline, yes the doctor said my eyes were a concern.
=> Going to school on Friday... Friday the 4th. Gotta call my school, got locked out of my account.

Litda's Fried Rice
(underlined and in CAPS are essential ingrediants)
RICE
EGGS
OIL or BUTTER or provencial butter

flavouring choices:
GARLIC, shallot, white onion, chives, green onion, sweet/thai/lemon basil

SOY, HOYSIN, SALT, SUGAR, sweet chili hot sauce, oyster sauce, ketchup, BBQ sauce, fish sauce

ONE or MORE precooked/leftover "filler"
sweet italian sausage, steak, chinese sausage, cooked chicken, tofu, your imagination


( Cruel Recipe: Litda's Fried Rice )

Devil's Rebirth Cake
Or why the Cavity Maker becomes the Devil's Rebirth Cake

• 1 package the darkest, chocolatiest devil's food cake mix on the shelf (I use Duncan Hines)
• 1 package instant chocolate fudge pudding mix (basically the most horrible chocolate-ty thing you can find)
• 1 (16 ounce) container sour cream
• 3 eggs
• 1/3 cup vegetable oil
• a chopped chocolate bar (READ required)
optional:
• a shot of expresso or 1/2 cup coffee flavored liqueur or you can use coffee from granulated coffee
(Don't other buying from the store, like a cup of gourmet coffee, it doesn't taste like anything)
• because I can no longer drink coffee (stomach pains), as much cognac is to your liking a shot or half a cup
(Be mindful of children.)
• I also use Chai Tea on occasion, but you'll have to brew a strong cup to get some taste through
required:
• these are the terrifying ingredients in my Devil's Rebirth Cake:
• At least 3 chocolate bars, I mean like Coffee Crisps, Crunchie and Skor
• Toffee Chunks
• Caramel AND Caramel bar, cut in cubes in a manner so that the chocolate doesn't escape
• Use your imagination! Like COCONUT!
• White Icing or Cool Whip (Dear Lord, are you still using icing at this point)

Comment for more recipes, I can share my Fried Rice recipe that is a crowd pleaser everywhere.

Canzine 2009 is back, no confirmation so far but I already applied.
Sunday, November 1, 2009 1pm - 7pm
The Gladstone Hotel, 1214 Queen St. West

I'll probably just be selling comics and journals and zines. The same stuff I would be selling at Doujinka Festival, makes life easier. I'll be going solo because I can't depend on people anymore, when I rely on people to do the smallest thing or not to do the one and ONLY thing they know pisses me off for one day... *grumbles*

Currently working on some pages and stuff I want to send so I can put it on my website and submit to the SpeakEasy’s Comic Book Show. I'm looking to buy another domain for my portfolio so I can keep my website as rabu-love.net full of it's fannish drunkeness. Why do I keep that incriminating info page! Maybe I should give up, I'm already synonymous with gay porn and alcoholism.

Working on my delayed doujinshi's, zines and promised comics that have been delayed. I should really finish ekocola's delayed plush and mail out my friends expensive gift due to shipping thing. poorleno I will trade you zines, books, ect. and stuff made by me if you send me more of that delicious tea and tim tams. BTW the art piece I made for Square Foot is dedicated to you... Mostly because I made it from the box that you mailed me from Australia. It's made of recycled and leftover materials, which is mostly what I use to make art these days. Nothing fancy, just very honest.

Tomorrow I'm just running out to grab a free burger (wouldn't you like to know?) and a crocheting needle for this.

School and OSAP is being a pain, I had to call the school to get my password reset. =-=;;; My OSAP is taking forever...

DEAR LORD! I am emotionally exhausted and wish to burst into tears.

Elle, Aloysius and I went to Montreal and Otakuthon.
Bus was $65.00 both ways
Hotel was $119.03 each
Taxi was $7-8 and it was cheaper to take a taxi rather than take the subway (2.75) and it would prove better later. ALSO they charge a flat rate and then by .10/.5 cents

My Computer was down all day, OMG so I'm scrambling to get the filler images to my manly man panel and see if I can procure some video as well. sarah-san, forgive me! I have to do this last minuuuttteee tonight!!! It'll only be 2-3 videos.

m(_ _)m If I can't convert them myself, I might give up. I have a lot of material.

Hi. I'm sick again. I started sneezing and I was like, "oh no!" >_<;; Then my nose started running.

It's probably because I'm depressed. I try hard to side-step depression, but it's hard. Especially when my mother is dissing me constantly!!!!

Right now I'm focusing on finishing my panels (they should be done in a couple of days) and thank you everyone for all your support and finishing my piece (pieces) for the Square Foot 2009. I'll be ringing in and calling them to see if my check arrived.

Oh yeah, mah phone is disconnected until I leave for Montreal.

I just got my phone call from AWOL Art Gallery's SQUARE FOOT show and I'm IN! But I have to send another cheque as I didn't sign it. o_o sarah_san will laugh because I had to void 5 cheques because I didn't sign them right. >_<;; Pictures later, but yeah.

I am very tired. =-= I slept 14 hours today, but am still tired.

I have some questions for those who print their own fancomics. If you could fill it ooouuuuttttt! XD It's for fancomics, but anyone who prints their own comics can respond.
