I had a bizarre dream this morning.
It was dark...actually very reddish tones, but dark.
Someone came up behind me and chopped my head off with a road sign...you know, one of those diamond-shaped ones with the arrows on it.
I fell and all was black. My brain still thought my body was attached and tried to move my arm. Apparently I had Phantom Body Syndrome as it felt as if I actually had. I wasn't in pain, though I could feel my head being chopped off.
Then I died.
I didn't dream of an afterlife though. I was pretty much just alone with my thoughts for eternity in pure blackness, or something.
Well, of course I woke up before experiencing an eternity in a dream, hee hee.
It wasn't actually that much of a nightmare though, just weird. I guess I was numb to emotion because I was killed too fast to freak out or something.

TGD - Ape Escape Complete by ~Tundrayen-Tenshi on deviantART

Well, actually I completely cleared Ape Escape on the 12th.
But yeah, this was my first game, and strangely...this was the first time I've ever actually gotten 100% on it. Those darn time trials and the Specter Coins, I had to use a walkthrough for some of those, I thought I'd never find them.
But yeah, 10 days to completion, and I didn't play every day, and I didn't play all day the days I played. Hmm. Pretty good, I think.
And yes, I've decided to draw a picture for each game too.
Next up...well, I'm making good progress on Mega Man Battle Network.
But I want to work on two games at once.
So, even though I have already beaten it 100%, I will go and replay Spyro the Dragon.
It's fun, and I want to draw Spyro anyway. It'll give me more time to think about what the next one will be, too. Well, actually, the next one will probably be Mega Man Network Transmission, because it's between Battle Network 1 and 2 and I want to play everything in storyline order. =3
So yeah, that seems like a good idea.
Actually it wasn't originally planned to draw accompanying pictures for each game, but then...it sounded like a good idea, and I'm glad I've started.
Also I'm working a little on Pokemon Crystal too, though, I started a new game on that before I started on this project, however, I think it's close enough to count.
I also will still be buying games over the course of this project. =3

So I had an MRI today. My first one actually. For my back, because it's been giving me trouble and they don't think the scoliosis I have is enough to cause pain, so they're looking to see if there's anything like a stress fracture or a pinched nerve. Anyway, though I was drugged on Valium, it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be. Almost fell asleep.

Also, today shall mark the start of..
Tenshi's Game Diaries
Basically trying to get 100% on every game I own with as little use of walkthroughs as possible in a decent amount of time but not a speedrun. Not sure if I'll do it with games I've already gotten 100% on. May or may not start the game over depending on the game and how long ago I started it. I'll probably work on about two games at a time - only if story mode is finished on one of the two though. It officially started on May 2nd with Ape Escape. I haven't been playing it every day but within this last week I've gotten over 70% at playing a few hours each day I have been playing. It's not a hard game, but in the past I have been too lazy to find all the Specter Coins and complete all the Time Trials which are necessary for the 100%.
Since I'm pretty much finished with the Story Mode on that I will go ahead and (re)start Mega Man Battle Network while finishing up what's left to do on Ape Escape. As it's going now I'll probably work on the Ape Escape and Mega Man series first, possibly with some Pokemon and Spyro interspersing.

Stolen from tomoeish though I've seen it and done it before.

I think I may have gotten Spiritualism (i.e. not mediums and seances but spiritual beliefs sans religion, probably along the lines of New Age stuff) before, but I'm pretty sure I didn't post it when I did. I actually got Humanism the first time I took it tonight but I looked it over and realized that is not me at all, so I retook it, fairly happy with this answer.

Oh, Happy Easter/Equivalent Pagan Holiday/Chocolate bunny day, everyone. I haven't said Happy whatever in a while, I think.

Happy birthday to a friend of mine who is not an LJ user, he turns 18 today! ^^

Um, oh yeah, probably will be changing layout soon. I really want to change my journal over (you know, that merge I've been postponing) and, uh, now that Itachi is probably dead or going to die it's not a bad time to do so. I'll miss that clan obliterator.

Also, uh, craving for techno music lately.

Saito Hikari - Rockman.EXE by ~Tundrayen-Tenshi on deviantART

After...a year? More than that? I've finally gotten back into Rockman, after buying Ryuusei no Rockman/Mega Man Star Force. And with that, due to it being a sequel series, my interest in EXE/Battle Network was revived as well. Thus, I thought it was appropriate to draw my favorite character (of all time?), Saito/Hub Hikari. Yes, more specifically him as Saito than him as Rockman though still as both, I don't know why. Yes, he's where the "Saito" in "Tenshi Saito" comes from.

And look! I finally scanned something using colored pencils in! More like, look, I got off my butt and drew something!

...I need to get an icon of him. Only two spaces left.

Happy big 2/14, everyone.
I haven't gotten my candy yet.
But I do know that one is a big chocolate fish.
Hope you get lots of candy too. ^_^
I have no proper icon with a heart or love on it. So here I post again with Deidara's hands making out.
Close enough.

(P.S. Journal merging is still a yes. I'm slacking off.)

Happy birthday to Matt, aka Mail Jeevas of Death Note, born on Febuary 1st, 1990!
I almost forgot about it, and he's tied with Near for my favorite character.
I'm such a bad fan. XD
I need to get a better icon of the sexy birthday boy, unfortunately I only have one corresponding to "angry/irritated".
Disregard this post if you don't like Death Note, I guess. XD
*wishes I could snuggle with Matt now...and Near...and Mello*

And I already love it. *_* I have been wanting this game since it came out and it's just so pretty and different from everything else out there!
And so far...it's like Zelda-like, but so far I haven't felt that maddening difficulty. Then again, I haven't really encountered any dungeon areas as described in the manual yet. XD
Hmm. I wonder if there's any kitsune in Okami...(they'd make it all the more awesome, heh heh. ^_^)

You know, I haven't played that many games where the player character is a quadruped (only other one is Spyro, I think, and the control sucked in Enter the Dragonfly....), but if it's done right, to me it almost feels more comfortable and the controls more fitting than if you were to control a bipedal character. Plus you can usually run faster (let's exclude Sonic in this case, heh).
( Cut for meme )

Also, it seems like I'm kinda magnetizing people towards me lately. It's strange, I'm so much more social, and I've met a lot of new people in the last week or two. It can't just be an increase on one medicine and a decrease on another - it doesn't feel related to that. Maybe I'm just less shy? I know I've started coming on to more IRC channels with people I've never met before, but I used to be more quiet and reserved about talking to new people (and on the channel that was my usual default, people seem to take more kindly to me). I'm even a bit more open in public, too - more willing to talk to people in stores and stuff.

Random un-related thing: I want to create one or more graphic novel series someday. Ones with animal characters (probably "nonmorphic"/"feral"/natural), probably. I want to take the paneling style from manga at least partially but it'll probably be colored more like Western comics - but a bit cleaner and nicer. Makes me wonder why all I draw is humans/anthropomorphic characters. Hmm.

Edit: You know, I do need to read Bleach Volume 3. I got it a few days ago but still haven't read it. If you wonder why I don't read it online, I feel because it's infinitely more comfortable and satisfying in book form.

I've been eating a lot of bananas lately. (Yay, I'm actually eating something heathy!)
I've also started playing Ape Escape games more lately...
Hmm...

Okay, okay, I'm being silly.

I added like 4 people to my f-list today, so I'm happy about that. ^_^ Welcome, to all of you.

And, the journal merge is still planned, but not sure when or if I'm -really- going to do it.

And, I've discovered the joys of IRC.

Um...that's it for now, since I have to go. See you later!

Happy New Year!

Did you know what I just realized?

That my journal's title is the same as that movie from the 80's about the Soviets invading the US or something.

It's really a pun on Akatsuki, but I find that coincidence amusing. Especially since I know people from the former Soviet Union (although it's irl, and I've sorta lost contact).

My mom's almost finished reading Death Note - I think she likes L and Mello the best, along with pretty much all of the shinigami.

I had a dream yesterday, that Mello was in class with me - and he looked like a "real" person. I kept trying to talk to him and basically bothered him though he did talk with me a little bit. When class was over and I followed him down my old middle school's halls, he turned into one of my ex-boyfriends or something, and I felt really irritated/"WTF" until he turned back into Mello.

Then before I had a dream where I could choose to ride with my family or with Mello and Matt. Um, guess who I chose (hint: not my family XD). I think Mello was the one driving, and I was holding a jar full of water and a small Wooper (who I think was sick or something - why didn't I put it in a Pokeball instead?). Pretty sure Near wasn't there, or anybody else from Death Note for that matter. And then we drove down the highway, then if anything happened next I forgot.
