Victoria Amour

So it's kind of late here already, and I was thinking about updating tomorrow, but hey, I decided to have a schedule, and a schedule I shall keep. Although, I may still have to post another update tomorrow (not sure though if it would be a quick one or not).

The reason that why I might be posting tomorrow is because tomorrow would be the last day of Supanova. So Supanova, as far as I know, is basically an Australian version of comicon (though there's still comicons, Supanova's more common and happens every year I believe). I honestly have a lot to talk about that convention (and maybe I'll be posting some photos as well), but I think it would be better off to just have one post about it rather than having two different posts.

Apologies for those who have been wanting something interesting out of this post. I'll be returning again tomorrow with another update on the convention and hopefully it'll be pretty interesting. Even with this slightly short update, I would still do the usual and recommend a song and a book. The song I would be recommending for now is Don't Wait by Joey Graceffa and the book I would like to share with you is Will Grayson, Will Grayson by John Green and David Leviathan (I think I've already recommended this one, but it's honestly one of my favourite novels to date). So yeah, hope all of you are having an amazing day, and I'll be checking in again tomorrow!

Flashing Lights

Hey guys! So I'm still sick and I haven't been in school for almost a week now, but lately I've been doing more art-related projects and writings - which is cool, I suppose.

On a better note, I've created a new DeviantArt account! Since I wanted to post some of my pieces to show my friends (considering how I can't really post it on my Tumblr), I decided to submit them to DeviantArt. And, well, let's just say my old account was more of a roleplaying account for an original character of mine (and my old pieces are still there - which basically means my account was from the Dark Ages), thus the birth of my new account! (so, hey, yeah, if you guys want to Watch me or check out some of my works, here's my account)

Last night, I've also started watching some anime again. I've watched the first episode of Tokyo Ghoul (which was, meh, alright I guess), then I watched some episodes of Lucky Star for the first time (and honestly, I don't know how to feel about that series). I'll try to finish Lucky Star and probably try and continue watching Tokyo Ghoul, but honestly, I'm not entirely sure I want to. I really want to try and get into it (since a lot of my friends have been recommending it), but I'm really picky when it comes to anime (yeah, i suck).

So yeah, not much considering how I haven't really been going out (yay for horrible immune system), but I've been planning to keep up with consistent updates - Tuesdays and Saturdays (or, you know, Mondays and Fridays if you're from the west). Anyways, for today, I would like to recommend Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell and the song would be Crave You by Flight Facilities ft. Giselle. And because of my love for Pentatonix, I would also like to share their latest video - The Evolution of Michael Jackson. I adore Pentatonix and the fact that they've performed a mashup of Michael Jackson's songs was absolutely amazing.

Well, I'll go brew a cup of coffee now. Have a nice day, take care, and caffeine is now my bloodline.

Terminus

So an overview of what's happened for the past couple of months (not including the stress and whatnot):

I have been watching different series and anime lately. A favourite series of mine has been been The Walking Dead. Another would be Dexter. And some anime I've been watching include Sword Art Online (which I wasn't really a big fan of), Noragamai, and Corpse Party. Though I have some people recommending me more series and anime like Orange Is the New Black, Game of Thrones, Free!, and Haikyuu!!. Hopefully I'll have time one day to binge on watching.

Lately, I've also been playing games like Diablo III, The Evil Within, Watch Dogs, and XCom. Though I have been playing a lot more Pokemon, getting too invested with Pokemon Black 2. But hey - it's not like that's a bad thing (right?).

Another thing I've been really into lately is editing old drawings of mine onto Photoshop. I'm not entirely sure why it relaxes me (considering how I work with a mouse rather than a pen and tablet), but it really helps calm my nerves when I'm feeling anxious or stressed out. [But hey, if you wanna check out some of my work, you can check out the blog I have with a very closer friend. Though there's not much of my pieces as per now, but hey, one day, I'll have a fairly decent collection.]

Suppose I'm not going into much details now, but basically I'm trying to balance out school and actually enjoying myself (just for the sake of actually calming myself down and not breaking down every single minute). And well, I suppose I'm getting there.

(Oh, and you guys should check out my really close friend's blog. It's growing and it'll be great.)

So as per usual, a book I would recommend would be Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell. The book really appeals to my quirkiness and I suppose you could say my humour? I just really like the book and a lot of people have actually been asking if it's a good book, wanting to give it a try. The song for today then would be Settle Down by The 1975, a song that I like listening to when I'm in a whimsical, adventure mood. Hope you are all doing well and I wish you all happiness and nostalgia. Bye for now!
