"way to go, Furball" (Logan on Hank)

WOOHOO! Finally get to see X-men 3 : The Last Stand! Ummm... Just a reminder that the following would be a MAJOR SPOILER AHEAD! As in I would talk a lot about the movie probably dissing it at a couple of parts within the movie...

Okies first up, what's with the lovey dovey scenes that seems to engulfed the whole bloody film. Yes ok you can argue that it becomes an important part within the movie for the character developments. But talk about the goddamn original lines they've put into the movie! SO GODDAMN CLICHÉD!

Storm (looking at Logan): "It's not whether THEY can or not, it's whether YOU can."

err... uhuh... then there's the scene where Angel "rebelled" against his father.

Warren Worthington, Sr.: "Warren, it's a better life. It's what we all want."
Warren Worthington III: "No, it's what you want."

AND just for that overused quote I did mouthed the quote BEFORE he even said "no it's what you want".

ok ok I know I'm being WAY too critical on this movie. But I can't help rolling my eyes at several scenes... AND I don't think Halle Berry is really cut out for the part of Ororo Munroe aka Storm. First of all, she's too short. I'm kidding. But I always admire Ororo as someone who is in a way multi-faceted. She's not someone who is too girlish and is not an expected person. When I read the comics her character gives up this vibe that is constantly changing according to whatever situation she is being put into. When she becomes a leader she would be someone who is superior yet understanding, when she's a friend she becomes someone who is reliable, when she becomes an enemy she is someone who will be feared. Halle Berry is predictable. Of course I can't explain it in more ways than that.

Mystique is cool! (hehe) But such a shame that she has to change back because of the cure. And it's such a shame that Nightcrawler is not there anymore. *sigh and it's such a shame that Rogue was jealous of Kitty... Why the hell is Kitty so... childish? She sat open-mouthed and blank faced. It's not fun being irritated like that!

Haha and I was kinda hoping the lower part of Wolverine's clothes would somehow come off coz of Jean's power hehe you know in the last scene where Jean was destroying everything and then (clichéd moment) Wolverine walks up piles of rubbles trying to stop her (hehe)

Another clichéd moment:

Jean: "You would die for them?"
Logan: "No... not for them.... for you."

Yeah no laughing matter though that was quite serious.

Lastly, they cramped so much minor storylines that in the end it feels... cramped. It does! I ain't kidding. I kinda wished everything would go slowly coz the characters develop WAY too fast and the emotional and sentimental sides of the stories are kinda rushed a bit...

ok ok I know I'm being WAY too harsh on this movie. I like the previous two better though. But I would probably find faults when I rewatch them all over again... hopefully not.

To conclude, I like it. Not in a favourite movie kind of way but it's ok. I like how Magneto moved the bridge (what was the bridge called again?) that was way cool. And it was funny how the mom locked the car door after they moved the bridge. And then Magneto rolled his eyes (hehe). AND OMG Beast WAS THERE!! O..O I like him too!!! It's such a shame that Professor Xavier died TT__TT *hicks... I like his character the most... o well... that was the story anyways...

Although the movie has quite a handful of actions it was being overlayered with romances... after all romanticisms always rule don't they?

MORE CHARAC!!

Yup... I tried to upload these last time and err... it never worked (tried at LEAST a dozen times!)

So here they are...

To those of you who have seen all the characters in my blog will kinda recognise that this is chaos (noush's character) I drew it again... kinda in a different pose and different outfit and she has this some kind of abstract tattoo on her arm O..O



FINALLY! I finally make amends to all my dreads beforehand of how to draw Joycie's charac and now here it is! As you can see almost all of her body are err... "machines" and she ALSO has a tattoo but of a musical note...



OK this next one is my own charac but in a different pose since I kinda thought of this and thought "why not?" and yeah you can't really see the fountain pen where I'm supposed to be standing on +__+



Okies that's all from me and just a note all the brushes that I use are all © of Insomniac.

Thank you very much and please comment >..< *runs back and hide*

caffeine~ o how i adore thee

during my last few weeks of living... ok kidding but seriously the projects have been driving me NUTS~! And over the last god-knows-how-long i have been staying up really late and sleeping really early... my diets (midnight snacks) consist of coffee, sugar and procrastinating~ aka thinking...

i have never known the danger of these diets till i actually have experience them meself... too much caffeine makes me jittery, too much sugar makes me nuts and too much thinking makes me grey~! i ain't kidding though... one night i put too much coffee (there ain't any mistake in that sentence) in the beginning i drank 2 cups of coffee already and upon the third i just pour the damn coffee into the mug without thinking, after sipping it i feel like my whole body just shook. dun worry it was no seizure or anything but i swear it certainly is close to one +__+

also i found out that if i didn't have any sleep the night before i become very talkative the very next day. it turns out that all my rantings mainly don't make sense or i would talk and then suddenly go to another topic without basing any relation to the previous topic... sorta like now really... trust me i know this when my friend and i were walking to the station one sunny sleepless day and she commented on how her ear hurts from my talking too much (although she didn't put it in that way it certainly says so) and i just realised that she was right! and the problem was because i didn't have any sleep the night before! EUREKA! what a discovery i tell ye!

alrighty i better get off now and do my mag design or my tute will whip me with her words of wisdom~

cya

ok... done two more characters haha (r~ight) anyways did Gauey's which is a pirate and there was supposed to be a small tiny flying cow somewhere hmm... the reason as to why a pirate? dunno... somehow fitting...


the next one is slightly weird and probably need to do more touching up and modification... it's sammie's character WITH A BIONIC ARM XD hahahaha... i thought of having guns and a little backpack with the necessary things to make a fondue hahaha but then hmmm... not so good at weapons... yeah it's shot out of her hand btw...



i kinda like how it turned out but somehow all of them turned out to be so serious =w= ya~h

comment please...

the vanquisher *oooooooo....

yeah whatever... =__= this is another character which is Holly's (woohoo! another character down and please don't ask whatever happened to the uni work...) ok so it might've seem a little odd... coz this is actually the first time i ever used painter ix which is a program that sorta lets you do all arty stuff (they have charcoal, paint, pencils, bla bla bla different mode of working basically) it's a program btw... and umm... yeah... i know how shitty it turned out will do a lot more practice though ^--^
alrighty that's all from me...

This is just a doodle slash good drawing inspired by a song called Everyone Deserves Music sung by (or it might be composed by) Michael Frain and Spearhead. I dunno I just HAVE to draw it. It is posted on deviant art btw.


I recently joined deviantart.com and twas good. ^--^ I kept on submitting stuff but neglected my uni work HAHAHAHA +__+ I really shouldn't be this happy but I guess if you have time please visit me gallery at yunichan.deviantart.com alrighty that's all from me.

BLOODY HELL!! >..<

I swear I will never go into a motorway ever again! +__+ It was so damn scary and sometimes my couz don't even trust me TT_TT we were driving to Parra through a motorway which I have no idea what since I was just hearing my couz's instruction... and then I was on the front nearly accelerating coz I thought the taxi coming for me was quite a long way away and then he said stop!! What the heck?!? so I stopped right after the give way line =__= causing a little bit of disturbance but just a little booboo nothing big and then off we go again and me couz lecturing me this and that when I know it was partly my fault coz I still fear accelerating too much... o this happened duirng Good Friday... how appropriate...

Next incident comes after dropping off another couz in Parra. And off we go again. This time my couz told me not to drive through the motorway anymore (fearing that our lives would be in danger with me behind the wheels :P) so he found another route to take... Only this time I was a teensy bit speeding and then suddenly another couz who came with us also told me how brave I was to do that when there's a police cruiser right behind me. Hahaha... yes that wasn't funny so I slowed down a bit got into this main road that merged but then I was scared of changing lanes and also the police cruiser was also changing lanes and... they did it first and then straight after I went, but please note that I was in front of the police cruiser at this very moment... hahaha and the police cruiser actually slowed down to allow me to change lanes... how nice of them... hehe

Yup and that was all the incident on Good Friday. The next day I also drove a VERY long way, actually it's more appropriate to say that I drove a lot on Saturday because we went here and there a couple of times. But the most exciting would have to be driving all the way to Miranda from Burwood! OMG! Twas quite ok except for a few mishaps which I can't remember. Ach alas there's the parking that I couldn't do when we went to Southgate, which is sorta like a Plaza I guess. I was parking head first but in the end it was sorta wonky and I didn't park it right =__= so needed to reverse and then do it again. PLUS I have to hear my couz's nag about my horrid driving skill. Of course all that is for my own good but I never in my whole driving lessons been just silenced aka there was nothing wrong with my driving *sigh I guess I need to learn more than what I expect it to be. Just when I thought Automatic is going to be heaps easier than Manual.

So on Sunday, which is today yet again I drove. Yes. I realise I've been driving 3 days straight and I swear on the day before which was Saturday my head nearly popped after at last I was off driving. Anyway, lets get on to the story. Today is ok. We split driving the car because there are 3 hopeless need-to-be-fully-supervised learner drivers in our family me and my two couzs. And although I can move forward heaps better than before I really suck at parking, reversing, noticing things, and etc etc etc. I swear I made this comment when I went driving with just my couz and I at one time "the number of times I nearly killed myself: countless." And that is the truth! Like today after dropping off another couz (I know I don't even know how many couz I have here seriously they are migrating like rabbits breeding! Sorry that was lame but I have a lot of cousins here...) we were driving along this quite small narrow road with two lanes when I didn't even notice there was this one car that parked but the driver is gonna get out of the car and I was driving too close to the left! so basically we kinda swerve to the right a bit and then back... *sigh and then there was another incident where we were turning off a roundabout when I didn't notice that the car from the oncoming lane was blinking its light to the left so that means I was supposed to give the car the first priority and I should've stopped. But I swear I saw otherwise! ... maybe ... and so I was nearly accelerating when my couz realised and told me to stop and fortunately (really this is such an understatement) I think the driver must've forgotten he let the indicator on but he just moved straight. But basically if he did move to where he indicates to I will certainly have crashed onto his car! ARGH! Dammit! I kinda hate driving but it has become a necessity in this day and age.

*sigh I guess I really need to improve really fast before my license just pass out (that means before it expires) so basically here's the run down of the skills that I need to improve before taking the test:

1. Parking. Which can be subbed into two categories forward and reverse. But the skill that I need to learn is how to park properly and not just guessing my position and start basing judgements upon that guess.

2. Blind Spot. My couzs told me that I usually don't check my blind spot correctly. They always say "show some ACTION" like hell I can. Seriously, even when I check the blind spot it gives me headache coz I need to turn my head fast. I know, lame reason but there you go.

3. Far Sight. Yes, trying to be on the lane, concentrating on speed, traffic lights, and surrounding signs are already hard enough but I still need to be able to notice further traffic to avoid mainly collisions and damage to the car and others around me.

4. Changing Lanes. I suck at this seriously. The first time I tried this I checked blind spot (barely), slowed down (which is appropriate to some point but I swear I slowed down too much especially on main roads), and swerved to the lane that I'm changing on to too fast. I'm still a bit wary of changing lanes.

Overall, that's all that I can think of at the moment. I swear that's probably a small amount of skills that I need to improve on. I probably need to improve a heck lot more and gain the bravery for moving cautiously, smoothly and perfectly upon merging lanes and motorways. At the moment I vow to never go on motorway but I must take little tiny baby steps before this ever happen.

So for today I bid farewell and wish me luck upon my next adventure jeopardising my couz's car on our little road trips ^--^

cya

hiya all! i know i know... it's been a while since i posted the characters for our little characters... o well... sometimes i just wonder what to do and ponder over my typo or whatever i'm doing at the time and drawing these characters have become a short distraction i guess...

so here we go... marina's character and that's the only thing i can offer at the moment... enjoy!


hmmm... somehow the white's a bit off must have been because of the adjustment i made after scanning it in... o well...

o just for a little fun i also draw a random thing...

alrighty that's all from me now ~cheerios!

THIS AND OTHER DRIVING LESSONS

Today and yesterday have been rather hectic first on Friday I couldn't go to a night invite coz I have to help my aunt prepare for my couz's daughter's b'day party the next day, but not a kiddie party it's just a party between our relatives, but in the end I end up doing nothing or rather not helping at all coz I was actually spending overnight at another couz's place (I usually do to relieve my tense moods coz it's quiter there hehehe let's just call it my 'second' home here) And then the party was over before it even started ^--^ hehe not really but all we did was eat and talk and then some people go and there's just us left. But it was all good~ she (my couz's daughter) end up with quite a bit of gifts including a backpack, a spiderman soft toy and a sunflower with a duck face (strange I know, but her little sister seems to be fond of it), a packet of stationaries and best of all an Incredibles Playstation game! hehehe yeah you can say she's quite a Playstationer (she's actually pretty good) but if you are wondering if I had been boasting about my gift to her that is untrue since it was from my couz (not her mom but her uncle) so she ended up playing it when we were talking ^--^

Next on the agenda is how many times I've been driving today... YES today only... I dropped off my couz to her work this morning, I drove back to my home in Burwood then drove back to Strath, then drove back again to Burwood, but then sat in the passenger's seat coz we were driving with a baby on the back but we went back to Starth, then I went to pick my couz up again at Burwood, then drove off back to Strath, and just when I thought that was the end of that my couz (who was going to a b'day party tonight) wants me to wrap up a prezzie so I said all my wrappers and stuff are back in Burwood, so I drove again, then back to Strath again but soon after we went back to Burwood... and that's the end of that... phew! Considering how many times I said that it was not such an amusing thing since I'm driving or rather has been driving the same route over and over again. But compared to about a month ago now I feel much more confident on the road even though I get told off sometimes for accelerating not-so-smoothly, but at least I didn't hit any car right?!? Yeah... I like driving now even though I've been getting through a heap of mishaps but I still like it. I've been driving sorta like what they would ask me to do during the test (even though it will never be as accurate as hiring a licensed driver instructor, but I need to cash up, man...) But the only weakness that I have is probably... actually make that two weaknesses that I have are reversing and parking... I totally suck at it. Just last week I went off the kerb a bit oh yeah and I also suck at roundabouts too... I can never get the circling right. Sometimes I would be a bit too close to the roundabout or it's just not as smooth...

Well anyway that's all the wild happenings that I've been having today... not as wild but considering this is the most times I've been driving in one day it was AWESOME (that is minusing the 45 minutes drive to my aunt's home which was CRAZY! I nearly died... of course not literally but I can just feel the membranes inside my brain popping off every 5 minutes...)

So tis all for today's blog... cya

ooo before I forgot. HAPPY APRIL FOOL'S DAY EVERYONE! ^--^ just for today only all truths are considered lies...
