Well, I'm in one of those rare moods where I'm actually feeling talkative about my life, ideas, and projects. Here we go!~

I'm starting off with college news. Things are finally coming to a close for the semester as the final exams draw near, taking place next week. Unfortunately, this means I will be stuck with my awful suite-mates next door, who share the bathroom between our dorm rooms. What makes them so awful? Well, see, I don't hate them personally...but I do wish they'd quit some of their habits. I don't care for the fact that their sink is dirty and has toenail clippings all over it, but they seem to enjoy giving us a hard time via noise-making after quiet hours and leaving dirty clothes in the floor of the bathroom without even flushing the toilet sometimes. (They've left dirty thongs in there before.) Anyway, they like violently slamming doors rather than courteously shutting them quietly, and they are constantly shuffling boys back and forth from their dorm room late at night. They're the only ones who do it on the whole hallway, and I'm stuck with them. Then they like to have loud sleepovers and turn the volume on the television way up. What irks me is that this is not just an ordinary dorm - it's an HONORS dorm. I'm not quite sure how these miscreants wound up in a place for honor students, who are more concerned with their work rather than partying (many who didn't take work seriously are getting kicked out next semester. I'm hoping my roommates either change rooms or get booted out with the flunkies.) I've already complained about it to an RA, but nothing has changed. But it's the end of the year, so I only have to put up with these bimbos for a few days longer. Thank goodness!

Erm...ahem. I swear, that was the only rant that will be included in this journal. owo; I hope, anyways...

Next, there's my furry agenda. I bought some cheap jersey gloves and took them apart to obtain a pattern make another paw (which I am hoping to use with my fursuit, if they look good enough and fit nicely.) I still have yet to decide which type of eyes my fursuit will have - follow-eyes or plastic bowl eyes. My costume will have a lot more character if the eyes follow, but I'm not quite sure you can see out of those kinds of eyes through the pupils... It's a tricky situation. With my fursuit, I am starting off with a partial of paw gloves, paw feet, the tail and head, respectfully. The body suit will be done last, and for that, I'll need to make the paddings for digi legs and, possibly, to make a very slight emphasis in the breasts to balance the body's proportions out and make it look female. There's a lot of work to be done for it.

Last night, I finally came up with a plot for my webcomic I've been planning since last year! My characters all finally are getting pasts and personalities and roles in the comic. The plot seems a bit on the dark side, though. I don't want the comic to seem "emo," so I don't want the darkness of the plot dominating. I'm not sure whether or not I want to include casual, everyday scenes with a bit of humor on top in it or not. The character designs don't look dark, really. I'm thinking about making my comic a mix of a story and everyday life/events, though I'm not quite sure how that will turn out. The story, minus the everyday humor, goes like this:

Elena, a school-going equine, is just an ordinary girl with some very mixed feelings about her life. She was adopted when she was very young and was raised by one parent, since the other was gone for most of the time. She's always wondering about her purpose in the world and where she was from, and what she should do. She's had support from her childhood canine friend, Jet, who seems to take pride in helping people get on their feet and sticking up for his friends; Sue, a hospitable and strong-headed beautician, also has strong ties with Elena, though she is more of a background character. Elena meets and makes new friends throughout the story, but they all have dark and tragic secrets... One day, a human alien princess named Alemnestas arrives in Elena's town with her knowledgeable dragon adviser, Bane. Alemnestas has come to warn of an impending doom whose key parts lie within the negativity found within each person. This "Shade," as Alemnestas calls it, is born when certain links are made between people who are the "Element Leaders" of its spirit. These elements which must be brought together for the Shade to erupt are Nihilism, Doubt, Fear, Torment, and Discord. I'm not telling who the holders are, since it would spoil the story. xD Anyway, since this story has such a set plot, I'm hesitant towards giving it casual or happy events. Then again, I can probably fit some in, like a bonus or part of the story. x3 I'm horrible with humorous and simple things, anyway.

And, well, that's pretty much all for now. xD I'll make profiles of the beginning characters in the future sometime.~
