An apology

Fri, 11 Apr 2008 00:27:48 GMT

Hello my friends!

I know, I know... I've been gone for so long, most of you have probably cosidered me MIA and might've even given up on ever hearing from me again :O

I hope that many of you see this because I feel like I've neglected the very people who've helped me through so much. I hope that you are all doing well, I send my best wishes to you.

Looking at what I have coming ahead, and my recent LJ behaviour (or lack thereof) I probably won't be posting regularly or at all. I'm not leaving LJ, I just need to concentrate on my "priorities" (it's what my parents call them) and I feel like I'm being pulled in every single direction.

I apologize for my disappearance and I'm sorry consequences!!! I didn't mean to worry you.

I'll come on from time to time to check up on your posts - please don't give up on me! However there is a very low chance of my posting on my own journal. Hopefully during the summer, I'll be able to use my free time to LJ-ify my life again.

But 'till then,

x.x. Kioko

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
(yes I know it's only Canada's and I'm about a day early, but Happy Thanksgiving to you anyway!)

Thanks for being there guys :) You've all been too good to me. Thank you for all the advice and comfort and friendship that you've given me. I'm really, really lucky.

Thank you for all the comments to my last post too. They really helped me get over it, and kinda... work it out with my friends.

Meme time!

Sun, 19 Aug 2007 17:19:39 GMT

I've recently become dependent on Kent. Like I started LIVING for the times when we would talk. I think it was because I've been so isolated by most of the outside world... I was desperate for someone to talk to. (I think I would've cracked completely if it weren't for you guys!!!). And you know what? I hated it. I hated that I wanted to talk to him so much, that I needed to... Urgh, I don't ever want my happiness to depend on a guy. Even if I kinda sorta like him.

However, after yesterday... I think I'm more independent now. Since I no longer feel the NEED to talk to him. I want to, sure. But, it isn't the same desperation as before. I feel really light!!!

Icon Troubles

Wed, 15 Aug 2007 05:39:53 GMT

It's been MONTHS since I've made icons... but now I'm just getting back into and making a few before school starts again...

But I need help. See, I've tried out a few tutorials and now, I've pretty much started trying out new stuff and doing my own thing again. But there's one problem. I can't do text. Words and icons just don't MIX for me. I usually have trouble with the words mixing and blending in with the icon so that it looks like it belongs there. I can do it... sometimes, but do you guys know any tips or tricks or anything?

I COULD ask a community, but since I have such talented icon making friends I decided to ask you guys!

Here's a few of my newer works (including the icon I'm using right now):

LOL notice how there's only tiny text, and no words.

I usually like inventing my own styles, but tutorials help me have something to start off of.

New Layout!Code Geass Lulu & Suza

Sun, 12 Aug 2007 20:02:22 GMT

:D Well, another school year's about to start, so to ~~celebrate~~ mourn, I made another layout!

This time it's Lelouch & Suzaku from Code Geass ;D

Click here to see it!!

It's always been a favourite picture of mine... lol, reminds me of the good old days... BEFORE Episodes 24 and 25...

It's my first time trying out a header layout... but what do you guys think of it?

The FRIENDS cut

Mon, 07 May 2007 04:35:59 GMT

Friends Cut

The LIST! If you're on it, that means that I am going to UN-friend you. It's a tentative list, and I forgive easily, so if you have found that you've been cut, but still want to be my friend, just leave me a comment.

If I have unfriended you it isn't because I HATE you or anything. I have NOTHING against you.

-Maybe you've disappeared off the face of LJ
-Maybe you've stopped commenting in my journal
-Maybe I've stopped commenting in yours (in which case I don't think it's fair to YOU if we stay friends).

I'm sorry about this guys, really. If you ever come back from your "vacation" and still want to be my friend, then I look forward to it, and will welcome you back with open arms. Then we can talk for hours catching up with each other.

You can still keep me as a friend for icons if you wish:P

Coming Soon To A Journal Near YOU

Sun, 29 Apr 2007 03:27:37 GMT

COMING SOON:

lol, the recent chapitres of TRC have given me new Fai inspiration :D Expect the artist's choice portion to come out soon! (well, maybe not TOO soon, but it's coming :P)

Ohh, Ben and I went out today. Pretty fun. It was just a walk to the park, but it was Kioko (<--replace with real name) and Ben bonding time! Yayyy! I hope I won't get too much drama from his girlfriend (although I kinda am hoping to, because I think it may be an interesting and amusing confrontation). I wanna see what happens. I know they won't break up on account of me hanging out with Ben (don't worry guys I'm not trying to break them up or anything) but she will get a teensy bit jealous and try her best to hog Ben all to her self. :D lol, I'll just be like "oh bring it girlfriend, because no one can keep me away from any of my friends!!!" XDDD Then I'll laugh. And Ben will laugh. And then SHE'LL laugh. Just 'cause deep down I think we understand each other... (she will however STILL try to hog Ben).

Easter!

Sun, 08 Apr 2007 16:16:25 GMT

Happy Easter!!!

Ahh, Easter... *thinks of bibles and bunnies*

lol! Anyway, I have family gatherings to attend... :P There'll be tons of food, so I'm aiming to gain 10 pounds!!!!! LOL, no. I've always wondered though, how Easter came to be associated with Eggs and Bunnies... How did THAT happen? I'm sure Jesus' resurrection did not involve bunnies... did it? Actually, a lot of holidays are like this aren't they? Christmas... Valentine's Day... is this all some evil business-related plot conceived by the greedy mad-for-money business men? *gasp*

lol. Have a good one everybody!

Chapter 148 of TRC is CRAZY o.O

Mon, 02 Apr 2007 03:57:29 GMT

Hey everyone! How are you all doing?

OMG! I know, I know, I'm behind but I just read Chapter 148 of Tsubasa O.O

O.O What the hell?! Just when you think Sakura's character is in a boring rut... leave it to Fai to give it a "He-just-did-WHAT?!?" kind of twist. He stabbed her! I almost refreshed the page because I thought I was seeing something wrong! Umm... was anyone else able to predict that this would happen? I mean... WOW. LOL I wanna see the look on Kurogane and Syaoran's faces :D Oh and Sakura too. Do you think that that's what she envisioned? I still don't understand what the curse meant. Sure... he killed her. But what exactly was she doing that made it her that he had to kill? I know she was going to Celes... but I don't know... is that what the curse was saying? The translation didn't make much sense to me... ^^;

New User Info ft. FAI

Mon, 12 Feb 2007 05:02:17 GMT

Well, I had some free time today so I re-did my user info stuff.

It's FAI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Click here to see the banner or here to see my user info.

Apart from the banners and bars, I also changed some of the information (it needed an update. BADLY!)

What do you guys think of it? *crosses fingers*

A mix up...

Sat, 03 Feb 2007 06:35:26 GMT

Aww! I offered to help out with banners at faicontest, and there was a mix up... The mod had told me to do week 6 and 9, but I guess they accidentally told the other banner maker to do week 9 as well. It's a good thing I finished week 6 first... because the other person has already finished week 9. It's such a waste because I already started on the banners for that week! A grand total of 1. LOL But I'm really proud of it (this is the first time I've done banners XDDD).

Here it is:

-.-; I wish it could've been used... but oh well. Do you guys like it? ^^;

To FRUITS BASKET Fans

Wed, 31 Jan 2007 17:02:29 GMT

To the FRUITS BASKET FANS on my f-list:

I need help!!! (please!)

You see, I tried my hand at making Fruits Basket icons. Using manga scans. I don't watch the anime. And I don't like or trust the way the manga covers are colored (yes I am being picky today). So, I colored the manga scans myself, and I wanna see if you guys can recognize the characters (if you can recognize them that means I didn't completely botch them up). I was totally unsure of hair, skin and clothing color.

Identify these 3 characters:

or

I'll even make people who get them right an FB icon (if they like). But if noone gets them right, that means I totally screwed up and >.< I'll have to wear a paper bag on my head.

I'm also hoping that some of you guys are FB fans (cuz how are you supposed to know the characters if you don't even read the manga or watch the anime? XDDD).

Kraine and swimsuits

Sun, 14 Jan 2007 19:15:01 GMT

Tos Talk time! WARNING: *spoilers for the game*

*seething* I HATE KRAINE SO MUCH. I swear, its one of the STUPIDEST pairings ppl could have come up with. There is no evidence that supports it whatsoever, and not to mention that it's COMPLETELY out of character (for Kratos, anyway). Grrr... it makes me so mad (especially since I am an avid supporter of Kranna). They hardly ever talk to each other in the game... I mean... seriously! Can you start a relationship without TALKING?!? I'm all for Kratos NOT being lonely and everything... but not with someone he doesn't show affection towards! (basically in my mind, he can only ever be with Anna). During the game, Kratos is also preoccupied with Lloyd and their whole father-son thing.

You know what? I'd start supporting Kratos/Yuan way way BEFORE I'd support Kraine. WHY? Because they actually talk too each other. And they care about each other. (it's cuz they're friends, but some ppl take it the other way).

Oh, and the reason for this random rant was because I was searching for Kratos pics, and came across some Kraine pictures (kinda made me wanna do a CLAMP and gouge my eyes out).

LOL, I'm such a Kratos fangirl! I nearly died. But speedos aren't the way to go (for ANYONE!). XDD I'm still upset they didn't give him a swimsuit costume in the game!

New Layout - Ouran Twins

Sat, 06 Jan 2007 07:20:03 GMT

Yay, another new layout! But hey, I was bored. I even made an icon to match this time.

PRESENTING: THE TWINS!

Click here to see the picture.

(Don't worry Fai, I haven't replaced you in my heart!! XDD) I have yet to read chapters 136 and 137 of TRC btw. I heard Fai was really, really cool in those chapters though. I'm looking forward to reading them!

The picture fits perfectly on my screen, but it might not be the same for everyone.
-.-; For me, it's best viewed with a maximized screen.

What do you guys think?

2007 y'all!!!

Mon, 01 Jan 2007 07:12:52 GMT

Yay! 2007!!!!!! HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

Looking back on 2006... I've done tons of things, this past year has been really great... so I'll make sure 2007 is even better!

I wish you guys all the best!

May you guys:
Stay safe,
Have fun,
Keep healthy,

CHEERS TO THE NEW YEAR!

Happy Holidays!!

Mon, 25 Dec 2006 00:56:52 GMT

I doubt I'll be on tomorrow...so:

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!!

or, if you don't celebrate Christmas:

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!

I hope everyone enjoys their holidays! May you all be safe and healthy in the next year!

Waaaah!! I'm so sorry, I've been LJ-less for about 3 days now, so I'm sorry if I've missed some of your entries (I WILL try my best to catch up).

Sweet victory!!! I gathered up the courage, and I was finally able to the guy I like!!! I was able to talk to him before, but since we don't have any classes together... we don't talk as much and I don't like to start conversations randomly y'know? But I did it!! *celebrates*

Oh and since I had SOME time today I changed my userinfo!! It's the twins (Ouran)!! Yeah, I know it doesn't match up with my current layout... but, its THE TWINS! They were begging me to make them into a something (LOL good grammar eh?). Click HERE to see it.

What do you guys think of the layout?

Whoa! Free time?

Sun, 05 Nov 2006 04:23:22 GMT

Hey everyone! Strangely, I don't have anything scheduled for today!

-.- First of all I'm so so sorry. I've been so busy with school, chores and all of my extra curriculars (I LOVE them but they're seriously cutting into my LJ time!). I will try to catch up on everyone's journals tonight ^^;

And second... there is tons of drama going on between my friends... (I'm never really involved but they act different during these times so it affects me too). Hmm, I can't really do anything but wait it out right?

Third... I have to pluck up some courage and actually start a conversation with the guy I like. I don't care if nothing happens...yet, but I just want to talk with him like we used to (before we realized we had absolutely no classes together this year). We hardly get to see each other now, so its harder for me to talk to him naturally... >:(

I want to make a new layout too... it's been a while... I'm kinda aiming for another Fai one. Or maybe something from Ouran this time? ;)

Have a good weekend everyone!!

The Final Episode....

Sat, 07 Oct 2006 01:28:17 GMT

I've done it... I've seen the final episode of Ouran High School Host Club...

I'm so behind! But I didn't have time to watch it before. So the following is my rant:

HOLY CRAP! I've never been so moved by an anime before! (Or maybe I have and I'm just 'easily moved' like Tamaki).

Let's start off with Episode 25
I almost started crying when Kyouya got slapped by his father!!! I actually gasped and screamed (like a big "NOOO!!!") out loud. For some reason it hurt me so much to see him get hurt by his father, who he's been trying so hard to make proud! And when his glasses fell off and...he picked them up... *cries*

And that evil little lady (with the opera lens seeing glasses thingy)! How dare she! I was screaming at my computer screen when Tamaki announced their engagement. And I was all "OMGOMGOMG! NOOOO!" When he said that he was breaking up the Host Club!!!

Episode 26
Pretty much lots of screaming and being moved to tears while watching this one...

Mori and Hani: ADORED the way they beat up the police!! *evil smile* That's what you get for messing with the host club!!!

Kyouya: I am so proud of this guy! 1) Heeheheheh LOVED the way he dented the car with his fist (ohohoho angry Kyouya!) 2)When his father said he was planning to give the company to Kyouya I was very happy :D 3) He bought his Family's company away from those Frenchies (sorry)!! I LOVE HIM! That is just so AWESOME! 4) I laughed when he danced with Haruhi ;D Tamaki was breathing fire XDDD

Hikaru and Kaoru: 1) Hikaru is one good carriage driver! 2) I was horrified when Hikaru got thrown off the carriage 3) I love these brothers :)

Haruhi: 1) I was all angry because she drove away in the carriage without even checking to see if Hikaru was okay 2) Seeing Haruhi jealous was awkward and strange to watch 3) I loved how she stood up for Kyouya

Tamaki: 1) His past is so heart breaking 2) I have a strange urge to kill (I mean...injure) his grandmother 3) One of the sweetest guys EVER... he loves his mom! 4) I hated his darned fiance. 5) I was so sad when he thought that everyone didn't want him to be there anymore!

All in all...one darn good anime! Makes me want to cry! I hope they can continue someday...because it was one of the best animes I have ever seen. Heh, I know I've been ranting and raving about this a lot... but I think this is one of the last times... until I get caught up in the manga that is. Very sorry for all of that :D

So... this entry is posted up IN LOVING HONOUR of OURAN HIGH SCHOOL HOST CLUB

Gay Rights and Homework

Wed, 04 Oct 2006 00:21:11 GMT

Greetings and Salutations everyone! (XD)

I got this from the very magnificent lexiaarons.

"Why is it that, as a culture, we are more comfortable seeing two men holding guns than holding hands?" - Ernest Gaines

We would like to know who really believes in gay rights on livejournal. There is no bribe of a miracle or anything like that. If you truly believe in gay rights, then repost this and title the post as "Gay Rights". If you don't believe in gay rights, then just ignore this. Thanks.

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.

It was SUCH A GOOD DAY TODAY!! Yaaay! Everything went right (except for receiving homework). Originally, I was sooo nervous and dreading today because I had to speak in front of a lot of people. And public speaking isn't something I enjoy... But it went great!! I was SO proud of myself, and my friend, Mish, (lets call her Mish) too, because we both hate talking in front of people.

I was also dreading my after school activites...but that turned out to be so funny and fun and awesome! I met a new person and bonded with my friends more :D

Also, the person I liked talked to me!!!!! Like an actual conversation and stuff! And they volunteered to do something with me!! -o- SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW!

Yes, today was a very good day...

Hope you're all doing good!
