First off...my husband is coming to the US

Wee! I haven't seen him in almost four years. Visa stuff...it's complicated. But at long last he's coming! I won't have to watch movies alone, or go to Universal Studios by myself. No more having to hope and wait that people remember me during the weekends.

I've spent the past month getting ready for his arrival, which is why I kinda lagged behind commissions again.

Life was tough. Depression and emotional stress were my worst enemies. Not the job. And although there were a lot of emotional vampires at work - I'm glad that there are people who I was able to rely on for emotional support. And I will always be thankful to them, even if they didn't know what they did for me


Got my tickets and hotel room! We'll be staying at the Wilshire Grand again. This time, my husband and cousin will be joining me. I'm getting my husband to cosplay as Sha (DOD) ahah, and we'd go as partners~

See you all there!!


Aha! So that's what it's all about. And it was indeed a very small rennaissance faire. It was enjoyable! Especially, the stage performances, like the minstrel and the twisted fairy tale. I love comedies! And I love to laugh.

Enjoy piccies~



Somehow, DA's journal won't let me link the pics to their bigger version.
All pics are in my photobucket album : >>> [link] <<<

Yey! I'm ready for the next round. Just send me a note to reserve a slot.

Watched it today. The race scenes are fun and thrilling. Story-wise, tho...there is a point in the movie where I actually forgot why he's really in the middle of things again.

Not too many cars this time


On the senti side of me...yup. I wave the white flag. Time to put this scenario behind and just walk away. I think I'll lose more (emotionally and mentally) if I try to win this thing. So, there are times when it's better to just give up and move on.

Besides, we can't please everybody. No matter how much time and effort you give into nurturing a one-way friendship. It tends to remains the same - one-way. So, whatever, YA-HA! I'll just spend time with people who appreciate my effort. I know they're out there, I just don't have a car.

Funny thing is - it's taken it's emotional toll on me already. I'm sitting and typing here, and not really feeling anything about it. So...whatever - YA-HA!!


I saw a video of Angelina Jolie on youtube. She was being interviewed about the situation in Sudan. There was a point that the reporter was being a little bit overly-critical about the UN. Angelina was suggesting that priority should be providing security to Sudan.

The reporter goes with something like, 'isn't the UN supposed to be peacekeepers?'

And Angelina replies quickly 'You keep the peace when it's there. Right now, there is no peace to keep.'

And the UN, being a humanitarian body, cannot do that. They do not carry guns in their cars. That's a different department.

I was, like - 'w000!' when she said that. Way to go, girl! I love her for her humanitarian work and that she knows what she's doing. I don't care about whatever Hollywoody scandal there is surrounding her. This is one aspect of her I truly repsect (and others who sincerely help make the world a better place).



Dynasty Warriors Vol 2 for PSP. Okay....I know this game has been out for at least 2 years. But, I finally got my hands on it. And yeyeyeye!!! My hands are aching from all the playing I've been doing.

Chocolatier Decadence by Design. I've always been a fan of this series from yahoo games. I love the design of the chocolates and how it makes me hungry. Last week, I found a chocolate bar in the grocery "Cherry & Chili in Dark Chocolate." Of course I bought it...and ate it and loved it Damn you, Chocolatier!! You're an interesting game, but a total diet-wrecker!

These things are addictive! I've had my pets for, like 5 years now...or more. I've only visited them again recently and got sucked into the mini-games and collecting stuff. It's a nice distraction once in a while.


Yeah. Some things you just have to start waving the white flag! Especially if it's a battle that you'll lose more if you win it. So, yeah! Begone! Begone!

...threesome? Just ask

¤ Feel free to contact me for other options and requests.
¤ Note that the distractive borders and blocks and special effects will only be on the JPG file I post for public display. It's meant to deter would-be art-rippers from using the piece and claiming it as their own. The client will get a clean version of the artwork and background.

¤ Payment method (Paypal, money order only...no personal checks or cash in mail.)



¤ Send commission request via note

¤ I will contact you via email and note when I am ready to start your commission

¤ Initial payment request (sorry, i had bad experience in previous commission batches, so I've to do this)
- Full payment for Chibi Headshot
- 50% for Lineart, Bust and Couples shots

¤ Once I receive the initial payment, I'll send a rough outline and block coloring (if applicable) via note and email. Only applies to Lineart, Bust and Couples. Sorry, chibis...

¤ Revisions may be made at this time.

¤ Turnaround time may vary. Normally, I set myself to no more than 2 weeks per commission once initial payment is received. But, depending on real life events - the process may take longer.

¤ Please do not continuously badger me about a commission status on a daily basis. Think that it will take time away from me actually finishing the commission, right?


Hopefully, no one backs out from the commission once they've made their request. I take each note I receive very seriously and professionally. I work very closely with each client and keep open communications with them before the final payment stage. This is to make sure that all the details are covered and that they will be satisfied with the finished product.

If it is necessary that a commission be stopped, let me know immediately especially if payments have been made.

If you are not satisfied with the finished product, please contact me first and we can resolve the problem. I will not refund payments, nor will I acknowledge Paypal chargebacks since every step of the decision making process has involved communication with the you, the client.

Yey to little web graphics XD
