feeling: tired
listening to: Cowboy Bebop - Green Bird
Eck. Daylight savings time has once again given me a solid sharp kick in the butt. I only slept, like, 4 hours last night. It sucks in spring because I lose a much needed hour of snoozieness, but it's ok because it means no more waking up 2 hours too early to the blasted sun in my eyes through my 9th-floor east-facing window. And it sucks in fall because the sun rises waaay too early, and goes down waaay to early as well, but it's ok because for that one night I get an extra hour of much-needed sleep. I hate double-edged swords. Unless I'm wielding one in someone else's general direction, of course.
This is going to be such a long quarter -_-;; I figured out that I will spend approximately 3 1/2 more hours in class per week this quarter than I did last quarter, my bio lab is 3 hours long, all my classes are spaced about as far apart as they could be so I have to do considerably more walking, and already it feels like it's been about 3 weeks since spring break. It's been one week. *siiiiigh* But, the good thing is, none of these classes seem to have a large amount of intensive required reading or writing or anything, like, say, English last quarter. *shudder* There's the standard hour or so of Japanese language practice every night, and the daily assigned readings in bio and Jap 231 are only suggestions, not totally necessary. In fact, our bio teacher told us straight up that it probably wouldn't be necessary to even buy the main textbook - just helpful. I love classes like that. ^^
You know what I find TOO fun? Creating alter-egos for myself. X3 I have, like, eight or so now. *facefault* Of course, two or three of them I have sort of abandoned... but... yeah. First, there were four, all ice/snow/water/cold elementals: ShivaKat, Chibishi, KatShiva, and Chibika. I had an obsession... shut up :P Anywho, those are the ones I have essentially scrapped, except Chibishi cause she's adorable. She's a little lion-type cub thing, blue, long ponytail, snowflake and wind/water tattoos on her shoulder/thigh, chibi (anime "mini" style) version of ShivaKat, who I haven't touched in ages (though I still use the name at times... doh). KatShiva *gag* was remade and remade and remade yet again, and she is now Haneyuki, whom I adore. Blue catgirl, long blue hair with silver streaks, odd-colored eyes, lion tail, nifty jewelry (which I need to update again...), and the best part: Escaflowne-style wings that can appear and disappear at her will. Umm, and... Chibika, who was a chibi version of KatShiva, evolved into Yukiko, who I now believe is my muse. She's pretty much a chibi-Haneyuki, but with less jewelry, no wings, and a tabby-cat tail, though I may change some of that. But yes, she is adorable and sickeningly lazy. When she does wake up and get around, she's the cutest, perkiest, most giggle-inducing little spunk you've ever seen, but only for brief periods of time; mostly she just sleeps. Grr. Anywho, um... so the original 4 gave way to 2 more - that's 6. Then, later, came Bekki-san, who is a friend-of-the-main-character streetgirl in that anime/manga story of mine that literally came to me in a dream. Bekki wasn't in the dream, but I added her as a reincarnation of me, as I think I would look if I were an anime chara: pretty much my likeness, except skinny (of course) and with blue streaks in the front of her hair. She's frighteningly fun to draw. ^^ That's 7... then, just recently, I devised a new one, a human nobility-type girl with Bekki-san's hairstyle, but much more princess-y, and living in a part-fantasy world where humans and demihumans (animal morphs, like catpeople, merpeople, etc.) are becoming more and more separate, which she despises because she's in love with a human/creature morph. I won't even get into how that one came to be... o_O So that one, #8, is unnamed, and I really haven't worked on her at all since I first came up with the idea for her, but she exists. And, finally, I just last week designed an Utenaverse version of Bekki-san, who I don't really count as #9 because she's just Bekki drawn in a more Utena-esque style. Sleeker, more stylized hair, Kettousha uniform, and such.
So I have created a total of 8 alter-egos. o_O; I scare me...
