Perfections in imperfectionsHey folks, it's your favorite local poet.
I guess I should start by explaining the title. I've been talking with a lot a of people, and I can't help but notice how much we, as humans, ignore our strengths, only focusing on our flaws when we are upset. I notice, though, that I don't see the flaws in folks I consider my best of friends. sure I might get upset with them, but when I'm clear of mind, I see these "Flaws" as they like to say, and I see only the positive in them. Now, maybe this is cuz I'm just mentally giving my world a mirage of perfection or something, but who knows...
I often hear "I'm so needy". What I see is "I'm a loving person, and enjoy to be loved as well". Nothing wrong with that.
"I'm pushy" They say. "You feel strongly about something, and like to let it be known. " Nothing wrong with that.
"I'm a big cry baby" You're in touch with your emotions and aren't afraid of them...I'm honestly jealous.
"I'm distant" You're observant.
"I'm sad" You're empathetic.
"I'm not
Kiriban GiveawayThe Goal
My goal is to hold a kiriban giveaway, each time giving away a different thing. The first thing will be :points:, then it'll be a premium, then it'll be a feature, and so on. But there are many steps to this. Here we go:

3) You must comment (NO NOTES) with the exact pageview that is identical to the pageview I set below!
4) Be fast, so no cropping the picture of the screenshot to make it look neater or whatever.
5) If more than 1 person gets it, (sometimes) I will allow it. Those will be marked with a :star:.

Things I'm figuring outNo group grows without continuous promotion~
Please take a look at #TalesofAstoria? We've got loads of plans and a few contests in the making. Go ahead and look things over... maybe even join if you can!
Or do me a favor and pimp us? ;D
To make emotional eyes, you don't always need super shiny effects like people tend to think you do. Sometimes, overdoing it can ruin an image and it's best left simple. This mindset can be applied to other things too.
You never get better at things just by looking them up. Action in practice is the only way to perfect or improve action.
People really are stupid, it's just a matter of how much stupid you can handle at a time.
A DA premium membership is a lot like an expensive car. Sure, it's cool to play with all the new buttons but after a while you learn that you can live without it. (Though the buttons are still cool on occasion.)
You may put your whole heart into a project and love it to death.. but not everyone will share your enthusiasm without
......What if.......You were on your way home when you died.
It was a car accident. Nothing particularly remarkable, but fatal nonetheless. You left behind a wife and two children. It was a painless death. The EMTs tried their best to save you, but to no avail. Your body was so utterly shattered you were better off, trust me.
And that's when you met me.
"What… what happened?" You asked. "Where am I?"
"You died," I said, matter-of-factly. No point in mincing words.
"There was a… a truck and it was skidding…"
"Yup," I said.
"I… I died?"
"Yup. But don't feel bad about it. Everyone dies," I said.
You looked around. There was nothingness. Just you and me. "What is this place?" You asked. "Is this the afterlife?"
"More or less," I said.
"Are you god?" You asked.
"Yup," I replied. "I'm God."
"My kids… my wife," you said.
"What about them?"
"Will they be all right?"
"That's what I like to see," I said. "You just died and your main concern is for your family. That's good stuff right there."
You looked at me with f
Ridiculous LawsuitsSince my last few journals were rather serious...time to have a little fun and since we are on the subject of law? why not look up the most redicolous lawsuits?
I have had a wonder and found a few that I find very amusing or frustrating...

The Defense at Stoneheart, a Svae storyIt was another cold day in the highest reaches of the Snowteeth.  A chill wind howled along the pearly bluffs enclosing the Chasm pass, and flowed down the crevasse walls in hungry torrents to bathe the impregnable Fort Stoneheart in snowy spumes.  Hemmed in by sheer cliffs of ice and stone and behind the protective walls of the fort, three dozen figures stood hunched against the cold or walked with haste to their next assignment within the warm confines of the fort interior.  In the field behind the main wall, eighteen recruits—peasants both in manner and in garb, accoutered with ill-fitting leather jerkins

Assassin's Creed Infograph

Journal Entry: Wed Dec 7, 2011, 2:03 AM

Note Me | Gallery


Hello Watchers,

Several months ago I along with a few other artists were approached by Ubisoft to make an infograph of the Assassin's Creed games up to Revelations. In it we were supposed to include as many important characters and dates as possible, along with some images of course. Months later they're finally up on Facebook, so I assume it's safe for me to talk about this now. I do suggest you check out all the submissions, because the other two put me to shame. They are STUNNING!

Artwork is amazing! ^_^ I found Enduro's last week but I had no idea it was connected to this. lol

I played Revelations and was....well....some what disappointed due to some "WTF" moments but it was good none-the-less. Brotherhood was way better.

I agree. I have to playthrough Revelations myself, but I watched my boyfriend play the story and I don't see what all the hype is about.
