Goodness, it's been a long while since I've been on here. Do you know it took me a good seven seconds to figure out how to even make a new post? Well, I am also quite tired and it is rather late. But still. I don't even reconize this place.

I came to this journal to find my old Padfoot and Moony fanfic recs from my memories. I miss Wolfstar so much. ;A; I read through all of the ones that I have saved and now I want more but I have no idea which authors are good and I hate. Hate. looking for new fics because I have to endure so many horrendous ones to find that one gem.

:/

As some of you may know, I have created comprehensive posts that feature downloads and reviews of the manga by Nakamura Asumiko and Sakuraga Mei. So you all do not have to go searching though my entries and tags, I am making this sticky post so you can easily access these directories.

Enjoy!

So, this is what I have been spending all of my time on for the past two weeks of my holiday vacation. And when I saw "all of my time," I literally mean all of my time. As in, 24 hours a day. Anyway, I started this last summer and had to hold off during school and when I finished the semester I was DETERMINED to have it up before school started again.

I am so happy with it. I capped and edited every single screen cap, cleaned all of the black and white manga scans, touched up the coloring to old anime adverts, put together panoramic shots from the anime... and that is just for some of the galleries! I also wrote essays (lol. i cannot shake that academic obsession), there is a multimedia section that has episode downloads, music (bgsm, songs and MIDIS! :D) and... a lot more. lol. I am too tired.

But ohmygosh, the most awesome news -- my FAVORITE Sailor Moon site, the one that I have always admired for years, Serenitatis.com has agreed to be my affiliate! And she asked me to be her affiliate to her other two sites. I. DIED.

Anyway, enough rambling for now. Go visit!

Just to let you know that I have updated my Sakuraga Mei Masterlist with new UPDATES! :D And delicious ones at that. ;)

Pairing: Damon/Elena
Rating: PG
Notes: Although not specific to any episode, set during early season 3.



Next time, I’ll be there, Elena thinks, acknowledging the pain.

She shifts on the cushions, closer to Damon, nestling herself against his shoulder as she rests the glass upon his thigh. His arm lifts, reluctantly at first, before settling it upon her narrow shoulders, allowing her to rest her cheek against his chest.

“Your heart beats,” she murmurs.

Boy With the Odd Pants

I love Aoi Seri so much. I have never been able to read any of her manga but I love her sketches! I tried to do a sketch myself in her style. ^^ I may scan it tomorrow. I always just take crappy phots but I don't know, I like this one. I guess it's because I've ever drawn anyone happy or smiling. :P

So, my friend and MFA mate Dong Hee and I are curators for this small gallery space that we are now using as a place for our MFA group shows. In addition to being a graduate assistant/secretary and MFA student working on her thesis project, I am now a curator, pr writer and organizer. O.o

I spent all of yesterday making a flyer and postcards. Now I may be an artist but I have never designed adverts and so I spent hours looking up galleries and artists' websites to find examples of how I should go about it. I knew what I wanted in my head but I needed details and specifics of where info should go, etc. Anyway, I am not going to get into what a pain it is dealing with 10 different artists who never read their emails or deadlines or instructions. I am just going to post the images because I am tired of hearing complaints. lol. And I am sure that you guys will be nicer. XD

Pardon the fact that I erased our last names. I am not comfortable giving out my full identity. :P
