Well then...!
I spend over an hour earlier, finding and rearanging things and cleaning up and sorting and... well, make use of this placeholder entry by showing of a lot of things I care about.
After posting I noticed a small error, edited that and saved.
...and in doing so, a random selection of the majority of what I had here was gone. No sense or order or reason; it just picked some things and decided "nope, not having that. byebye."
I really don't feel like doing that all over again so whatever. Random bits and no sorting it is. I've thus removed most of it and just kept a few pieces.

In honor of DeviantArts 13th birthday and in honor of the "favourite Deviantart memory" theme, I will share with you a story, a FanFIction of Grandia, because that is where DeviantArt started for me; uploading a FanArt of it and trough that finding some good friends of mine =D
Ultimately not only here, but on other sites as well.
Thanks to all of you =D And thanks to everyone who I got to know trough something else as well. I may not have posted something here in a long time, but I am still here ^^
Anyway, on to the the story itself. As per the rules set by 
DA, it will be exactly 13 words long and also per those same rules, feel free to continue the story in the comments °-^

Finally I am able to at least post a journal entry again!
But sorry everyone: I'm not back yet. (Did someone even notice, that I haven't been here for months? ^^;)
So, what keeps me from commenting your work and submitting my own?
My Computer <<'
I haven't been able to log in here on DA (and some other pages) for quite some time now. I don't know why, it seams to be a bug or something. Right now, I borrowed a Laptop, so that I could tell you, that I'm still alive XD
As soon as I am able to log in again, I'm going to submit some things. There still is the story I wrote for :icondeamond-89: what feels like ages ago. That's going to be the first thing, I guess. (Sorry to keep you waiting óò ) However, there won't be drawings anytime soon, I fear. Just like my PC: My scanner decided to do what it wants. Or better: it's not doing anything at all. - -'

All right... what have I been doing while not being able to do anything here?
Well, I've been reading a lot lately. And I mean a lot. Mostly Lord of the Rings and Hikaru no Go FanFictions.
What happens when I'm reading? Right: I'm going to write . So I've been doing that as well. (Guess you can expect some story's when I'm back)
Oh, by the way: I've been in England in June. It was really nice ^^ I met my half-brother Malcom for the first time and we got along quite well =D (He's somewhat totally like my dad and at the same time he isn't XD) we went to some great places. A castle, a giant house-museum-thing, a very cool bridge and many other things as well. And I learned some interesting things about the English half of my family. I really hope we can see each other again some time =D
But I'm kinda jealous... we saw lots and lots of game shops with really good stuff and it wasn't even expensive! I've never seen that many game shops before! (Actually, I just knew one and that has been shut down since...at least six years. Maybe longer) They seemed to have them everywhere! It was crazy! No wonder I spent  lot of my money on games XD'
That leads to something else, I've been doing lately: playing my new games XD Like Pokémon Diamond (Already trough with the main plot, just need to finish the rest and to find a way to use the Wi-Fi parts) or Final Fantasy III (I'm talking about the DS remake. It still feels like an old game story-wise though XD)
An other game I bough lately is "Hikaru no Go - Heian Gensou Ibunroku" (Translates to something like "Heian Fantasy" )It's a Play Station 1 game from Japan. I wanted to have this for some time and when I found one on E-bay which was sold for a fair prize I bought it without hesitation =D
It's a Japan Import and yes: it's all in Japanese :XD: BUT: I has got a full synchronization with the original voice actors. That together with Muisc and Pictuares and I am able to figure out what's going on =D I can understand at least some Japanese words if I hear them, so... Actually, this might be a good reason for me to get myself to learn Kanji too XD
I better not buy anything else soon though, unless I rely need it. *laughes*
One more thing: I started using the RPG maker XP and I love it! :heart: Maybe you'll see some screen shots or other related things to it in my gallery in the future.

Okay, that's enough I think XD Now you all know what I've been doing lately. How about you? If something interesting/boring/funny/sad/strange/unexpected/great/awful/awesome/... happened to you, feel free to tell me =D
I hope, I'll be a part of DA soon. Miss you all guys ^^ (and girls, of course XD) Next time I log in I'll hopefully be able to post something as well.
See you ^^

~yamina (aka: Mullen/Kyoya/Aaron. I've been called that way from certain people [you know who I'm talking about ;b], so I might as well add it :XD: I don't mind being called that way by others too, if you don't mind to get an in Character reply, that is :XD:)


Edit
Arg, I forgott to post the (not so quite actuall Worklist) and the Clubs I'm Member of XD' Sorry~
But then again...it seams not many of you guys read this anyway XD' Guess I really have been away far to long...
Maybe you'll remember when I'll fully be back again? :XD:

Do you know this? You sit there, look through your gallery... and all you think is "Everything looks wired."?
Well, this happens a lot to me lately.
I don't like any of the new drawings and I don't like the old ones either. And if I try to draw something new, it won't work. Even the characters I've been able to draw in a way were I thought "that looks good" won't work anymore.

I have no idea, where this comes from. Okay, very often I am not happy with the drawings I make. I think, i share about one of 20 pictures I draw, not including sketches.
But this "that's all not good" feeling has never been annoying me that long before.

Everything else works just fine, but this...
I think, I'll take a break from drawing for a while, maybe that'll help.

I have to focus on something else anyway: I want to enter two contests organized by German Conventions.

One is an AMV Contest, arrange by the Connichi. (That's one of the most famous Anime/Mange/etc Conventions in Germany, so it's quite big)
They've got lots and lots of rules and I don't think I'll have a chance for the higher ranks since they suggest not to use the Windows Movie Maker (which is all I have XD), but just imagining, that maybe one of my AMVs would be shown there on a BIG SCREEN... that'd be amazing! XD I'll give it a try and if it won't work that's fine with me as well ^^

The other (and maybe even more important one for me!) is a FanFiction Contest, organized by the MACOnvention.
To be honest, I've never heard about that one before, but it seams to be quite known as well, so what ever XD It would be great to enter that one and even reach a high rank. I've already won some writing contests, but I've never entered one that big, so I get exited just while thinking about it! XD :excited:
I hope, I'll finish my story in time.


Erm...yeah... I just wanted to tell you, what I'm doing and explain, why I (maybe) won't submit anything for a while XD And I promise: I'll check out all your stuff. Maybe it will take a while, but I will do it! XD

Ah! I forgot: I'll the EoT Contest hold by Deamond-89 as well XD

Yesterday, I had the chance to play the GBA Game "Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Team Red" (I know, it's not that new anymore, but I never played it before °-^)


I was quite interested, since all the "Mystery Dungeon" Games seems to be so popular, and playing a new game is always interesting right?


Let me tell you something about the gameplay in the Dungeons:


When you're walking, you can think about the floor as a big field with lot's of squares. Every time you move a step, all the opponents will do the same, if you're not doing anything, they won't as well.
While holding the B Button you run (fast, you barely see where you're going). Also: when you push the A & B Button at the same time, you regain health. But each time you do that, it counts as a step and the enemies move.
Items lay on the floor and you pick them up by walking on the field.
There is a map which becomes more and more visible when you're walking, so that you see, where you've already been.
In the battle, you can check the direction with the help of a red square, there is a textbox, which informs you about everything that happens and when your Main playable Character dies, you lose your Items and wake up at home.


There is more to say about this game, but this is important right now. You wonder why? Well, have you heard about the PSone Game "Azure Dreams"? Let me give you some information about the gameplay in the Dungeons there as well:


When you're walking, you can think about the floor as a big field with lot's of squares. Every time you move a step, all the opponents will do the same, if you're not doing anything, they won't as well.
While holding the O Button you run (fast, you barely see where you're going). Also: when you push the X & O Button at the same time, you regain health. But each time you do that, it counts as a step and the enemies move.
Items lay on the floor and you pick them up by walking on the field.
There is a map which becomes more and more visible when you're walking, so that you see, where you've already been.
In the battle, you can check the direction with the help of a red square, there is a textbox, which informs you about everything that happens and when your Main playable Character dies, you lose your Items and wake up at home.


I think, by now you understand why I am talking about it. To be honest: I did not even mention all the similarities.
Both games are quite nice, with different ideas, different story and so on, but what's with this?
Either some of the Azure Dreams developers helped creating the Mystery Dungeon or the programmers of the Pokémongame loved the Azure Dreams Concept so much, that they had to use it, I don't know.
Anyway, while playing the GBA Game I felt like I am playing an Azure Dreams Copy. I really love the game, even it is quite old now, so I wasn't happy about noticing this.


I'm not going to say, that Mystery Dungeon is a bad game, it has a lot in it, which is new and interesting and from what I've seen and heard it is actually pretty good.
But still it annoys me, that there are so many things in common. When I'm playing a new game, I want to play a new game and not something I already know! It's not like the Final Fantasy Games, for example. One Concept, that's going on and on with a great mix of new things and things you know.
They are two different games, so please: I want a different gameplay!


For those of you, who don't believe me: I've made a little Video about it. Look at it, and you'll see what I am talking about.
...At least, that's what I wanted to say. Riht now, it keeps bugging. If I get it to work, I'll post a link here. So for who ever is interested take a look every now and then.
Or maybe you can check some YouTube Videos, maybe you'll notice.




...
Just something that bothers me, sorry for spamming your Messagebox XD
