Random Stuff from SAB-CA- Tagged by ~Jinpun

1. I'm 24?
2. I eat Double Quater Pounders from McDonalds by taking the bottom pattie off the bun, folding it in half, biting out the middle, finishing that piece, and then eating the rest as if it where a single Quater Pounder.
3. Yes, I'm a guy. Yes, I draw women. No, I won't draw anything overly suggestive or sexual!
4. Sexy is much more appealing when it's subtle, I say. Once it becomes blatantly obvious, it's either just trashy or in poor taste...
5. I'm black! Though most people wouldn't assume this by the way I talk, type, or sound... but doesn't my Avatar make it obvious?
6. I'm not easily hurt. I mean, things still get on my nerves and annoy me, but to truly leave a lasting wound... you'd have to be insanely special to do that.
7. I've never met a "first met online" friend in person.
8. Shrimp, Krispy Cream, Steak, Orange Soda, Fruit Punch, Hot Dogs!
9. I have a beard. I never draw it. I should probably shave it. My skin doesn't like shaving. I normally only do it to mark cool awesome events.
10. I'm rather reserved... initially. I wouldn't say I prepare false personalities, but I do act differently depending on my environment and who I'm around. Some people I like to be more serious around... others I like to goof off with.

I tag err.... , (do YOU read MY journals? XD) and... err... !

Ok, what's are these Pixel Arts and Emoticons?

-- Well, see those little animating images at the end of my journal? That's
-- My personal breed of Emoticon. See the images of the Ninja-dude
-- (*tubenose) and the cute girl (character by *augustc4) in the
-- banner above? Those are Pixel arts! Pixel art is special in that it requires
-- a person to place each pixel individually: You don't just draw these things
-- with a brush, you map each individual detail out with specific love and
-- attention! They're basically like the character graphics you see in your
-- older video games, and on systems like Game Boy Advance.

"6 weird habits/things about yourself."

Rules : The 1st player of this "game" starts with the topic "6 weird habits/things about yourself" and people who get tagged need to write a journal about their 6 weird habits/things as well as state this rule clearly. In the end, you need to choose the next 6 (or as many as you know) people to be tagged and list their names. Don't forget to leave a comment that says "you are tagged" in their devpage comments and tell them to read yours.

1. What's popular Music? For me... anything from games! I guess I like my music to be more MUSIC. I often will listen to a song on the radio intro itself, and really like it... then get annoyed with it as soon as singer decides to start their part.

2. Generally speaking, I don't like pets. I used to want to have a turtle... maybe I thought it was a Ninja? Otherwise, unless the girl I marry owns some, I doubt I'll ever personally have a pet.

3. I own alot of Girls-as-main-heros anime lately... BAH! Initially, I think it was because I didn't wanna get anything too fan-service-y, and something more "innocent" was easier to work with. Now everything in anime made for guys is usually so over-sexed now-a-days... What happened to Stories like Robotech?

4. People back in middleschool used to say I needed to talk more... my family would think I never stopped talking... Hmm.

5. As much as I love works of fairly clean, sensible, all-audience natures... I somehow love the "Gunsmith Cats" Manga. I mean, really, there are so many reasons why I shouldn't like the series... But Sonoda's wonderful art, borderline-good-guys, amazing car-chase scenes, and character relationships just win me over.

6. I'm too Schedule-directed by my days... if I wake up late, I just don't seem to function the same. My most productive days are ones where I awake right before daybreak, and sleep sometime after midnight... I think when I wake up late, I just.. kinda skip the "preparing for the day" ideas, and just jump into the "restful night" mentality... problem is, there was no day to rest from, haha. Thus: Lazy nights!

I tag -I dunno... maybe I'll tag people later, lol-
