Well, looks like the Town Guard struck again, only this time the damage was doled out to my writershouse. I'm alright with what they did, no sense crying over spilled pixels. In good faith, I sent a polite message to the mod who conducted the business in question. Actually, it gave me an idea on what to replace the lost graphic with, so now there's a nice little intro I wrote using kanji instead. I always seem to find solutions out of predicaments lately.

On to better news; in fact, it's actually great news for me! I came home after class today, however unlike all other school days I had spent the previous hours of the morning conversing with exchange students direct from Japan. A very welcome and pleasurable experience I must say! I kept getting my picture taken by a gang of teenage girls, most of them quite aesthetically pleasing to the eye-i.e. they were gorgeous!! I was even able to receive a name card from one of them, a remarkable young woman named Emi (きれいな女！) and also consumed my first official rice ball given to me by another student, though I never caught the guy's name. After a few hours of laughing it up and talking candidly with those girls, I was forced to leave for other matters, and besides they had prior plans as well, however I so wished I could have stayed longer...afterwards, I headed to the mall and acquired some free java juice courtesy of a coupon I owned, and while there I took up reading a few texts from the bookstore on how to make and prep tea and also the details behind the Japanese tea ceremony, or if you're in the know, chanoyu.

All in all, a very good day this was. ^_^

More changes again. Seems like everyday I get to my computer I head directly to my community pages and start editing stuff. I'm streamlining the process once more by adding a Myspace page to the medley, so now I think I've finally got enough workspace to meddle with when it comes to uploading pic's as well as acquiring the necessary url's for this site and my elfhouse. Soon, I can begin anew with creating finished works, one of which I need to complete still: the hades weapon sketch. It's looking good so far.

I should probably cut down on my online time, as I've been neglecting my real world duties due to this addiction with communities! At least until after school is over with for the summer and then I can dive head-first into the graphic work and also some more writings.

I just had a great idea that I'm about to start at my elfhouse, and this also rectifies the problem I've been dwelling on about what to put in my wikipage, as well. I will start a sort of "fantasy shop", which will include odd items and relics that elftowners can "purchase" from me using a credit system that I will somehow make and keep tabs on per each customer. I haven't figured out how to do it well so as to maintain purchases and credits, but the ideas are coming together so far, I just need some more time to smooth out the entire process. I have high hopes though that elftowners might be interested in this little entrepeneuring endeavor.

As for the arcane knowledge that I was originally going to place there, I think I may end up pitching those ideas I had to the Elftown Academy. It seems like the perfect place for such topics to be discussed freely, although the council that regulates the site will only accept new subject matter that complies with their usual regulations as far as presenting it in a classroom format. Easier said than done, however I think I can set it up quite nicely. Just need time for that, too.

I guess the creative juices within me have certainly opened the flood gates.

Excellent, the consolidation continues. This page will be my official site for journal entries, since I've now capped the other two locations for my occasional writings. All my mental ramblings will now be posted here and not all over cyberspace.

I think I've figured out how to do this upload thing on writersco now, so hopefully my writings page will look decent. I recently had a slight discrepancy with my elfhouse, so I had to correct that as well, no permanent damage done though; however, I turned it into a positive by delving into the contribution wiki and taking a gander at how I could become less a spectator and more of a participant, i.e. I submitted a few poetic selections of mine to their daily poem page. We'll see how that goes.

By the way, with the use of this blog here I am not about to move all my old entries over here, I'll just simply start future writings here. Now, I have to go, homework calls.

Today marks the commencement of something I hoped I could achieve: I now have a place where I can submit my writings online. Elftown, {AS} Collective, and now WritersCo have become my official triumvirate for all my artistic endeavors and expression. The eminent psychoanalyst Carl Jung (hell yes, better than Freud!) once described the human psyche as existing like a house with 4 main rooms: the anima, animus, superego, and the id--in the cosmos of communities I've joined, my house at WritersCo will represent the dualities between my superego and id, which is the genesis behind my stories and poems. FYI, the creative force of my anima begets the art I submit to my wikipage at Elftown and my animus and its earthly desires will remain with the collective at Adult Swim. What can I say, I like anime!

Balancing the equal dedication to this triumvirate will be tricky, since I have plenty to fill my real-life schedule including the occasional job for some petty cash and my schooling to spend it on (!). I will do what I can however to keep this page with accordance of the rules and stipulations by the WritersCo guard. And hopefully I will bring much to read about--after all, that's the whole point of this site!

Along with this house, go ahead and visit the other pages I'm connected with, else I won't have much justification for creating all these memberships.
