Hi! Sorry I've been neglecting DA a bit... =/ But! That's because I've been busy!

First of all, It's the month of Ramadan! So, one of my commitments is to finish all of my unfinished projects! (or at least the most important ones):

PAPERCRAFT:
I went on a papercraft rampage at one point and started downloading all these papercraft models. These are the ones I started making but never finished:
- Howl's Moving Castle model (50%) I'll take photos and upload to DA
- Tales from Earthsea dragon (60%) Also take photos when it's finished...
I also wanted to make Toon Link and a Shine Star (like in Mario Sunshine )

DRAWINGS
- Coloring all my fav drawings w/ Photoshop or SAI or traditional stuffs (Copic markers, color pencils...)
(not so sure about this one because I still need to find the right method for PS/SAI )
- also made the design for my new DA ID, have to color it now
- NEW BIG PROJECT (see below for details )

PIANO
As you may or may not know, I've been playing a lot of piano for the past year , which is one of the reasons I neglect DA sometimes. I wish DA had a music section so that I could post vids of my piano, but it doesn't.
So, I've made a YouTube account where I'll post vids of me playing piano! For the moment there's only 1 so:
- Take vids of all my finished piano pieces and upload to YouTube
Once I do this, I'll share my YouTube account here (Until then, there's not much point since there's only 1 vid )

OTHER
-I've also been wanting for a long time to make 1000 cranes in rainbow order (4.6 % O.o )(RAINBOW!! )

OK so now for the NEW BIG PROJECT
It's the one I'm working on right now.
I'm going to make a giant drawing for my door!!!
I put together 10 really big pieces of paper to fit the size of my door and I'm gonna draw on it and stick it on my door xD
OK, maybe it doesn't sound that awesome when I say it, but believe me, it's not as easy as it sounds Just wait 'till you see it! I'm already very happy with how it's going so far And I've been taking pictures so that later I can show the process
So, the cool thing is... once I've finished this, I wanted to continue with my whole room!
YES! I'm going to make GIANT drawings of life-size people and animals and patterns and stick them over all of the free space on my walls in my room!
Now, that's gonna take a lot longer, so I'm not planning to finish that by the end of ramadan, it'll be a work in progress for a long time... so, every time I finish one part, I'll take a photo and upload it

ANIME
I've been watching/downloading LOTS and LOTS of anime
#1: NEW GHIBLI MOVIE: Karigurashi no Arrietty. It's not by Hayao Miyazaki, but still very good! ^^ It actually came out last year, but a good quality download hasn't been available until recently
Also, Goro Miyazaki made a new movie called From up on Poppy Hill! It just came out recently so still no good downloads... It has a few songs in it by Aoi Teshima who was in his last movie Tales from Earthsea, so I get the feeling he likes her hehe, and so do I!
Well, I'm not gonna make a list of ALL the anime I've watched/am watching, but here are some of the most recent, and my favorites (Each category in order of preference/priority)
All time FAVs:
- Cowboy Bebop
- Evangelion
- Samurai Champloo
- Rurouni Kenshin
Other FAVs (not as epic, but still very good)
- Eden of the East
- Fushigi Yuugi
- The Vision of Escaflowne
- Shakugan no Shana
- Seirei no Moribito
- Ayashi no Ceres
- Wolf's Rain
Watching now:
- Inuyasha (surprisingly, a lot better then I thought it would be, I love it but it's sooo long! O.o )
- Code Geass: Lelouche of the Rebellion R1 & R2 (I actually watched R2 first and am now watching R1 ^^")
- Rurouni Kenshin (watched AGES ago with my bro, and I liked it so much I'm watching it again now )
- Macross Frontier (after hearing Aimo Tori no Hito, I had to watch the anime it came from! Amazing animation style, especially since it's in space, it's very beautiful)
- Darker then Black (interesting so far, not so sure though... )
- RahXephon (Reminds me so much of Evangelion, maybe a bit too much)
MOVIES:
- ALL THE GHIBLI/HAYAO MIYAZAKI MOVIES EVER (of course )
- Summer Wars
- The Girl who Leapt through Time
- Paprika
- Akira
Other AWESOME TV shows:
- Spongebob (DUH!!! )
- ADVENTURE TIME!!! (what time is it? )
- Futurama
- Samurai Jack
- Freakazoid

BOOKS
Uuuuuh, I've recently finished Artemis Fowl #7: The Atlantis Complex and I also really wanted to read Morpheus Road #2: The Dark, but they don't have it here yet. So with all my projects and anime, I won't be reading much until I get The Dark
And of course, I also have a long list of unfinished books which I still need to read, but those will just have to be put on hold... (and I'm not gonna start putting the list here since the anime one was already so  long xD)
So, I just need to say 1 thing in terms of books: If you want to read something or don't know what to read, you HAVE TO read the Kate Dicamillo books (Desperaux, The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane, Tiger Rising, The Magician's Elephant) They are truly life-changing books and you won't regret reading them! I've been trying to get my whole family to read them xD

OK, so if you've managed to survive through probably my longest journal entry ever, THANK YOU for reading! And SORRY that it's so long!
And I'll be uploading all my new stuff at the end of Ramadan (September) Hopefully before school starts!
I probably won't be on DA much until then, unless it's something really important!
So, this EXTREMELY LONG journal post should last until next month!

BYE BYE! (xD)
