How to make "long" into "short" and come up with the same result~

Due to me doing AJATT I am currently learning all the Kanji - writing and German meaning only, for the readings will come up with the 2nd round. However, I was ways to lazy the last months and I could´ve finished during summer holidays - well... but I didn´t. Now I calculated that if I did 25 per day, I should have finished with them ...2 days before Christmas - or something like that, but pretty close to this date. Good and fine - now why don´t I just do that? Because learning 25 Kanji seems like loads when you still have 25 to go. In the end I always think "...and I was complaining about this? Dude, that was like nothing!" I just tend to don´t want to start when I have so much to do - because it seems discouraging even before I started - and then I end up with having done absolutely nothing all the day long... which leads me to frustration... So what to do? I personally divide my kanji amount in little pieces. On days where I have much time I do 5 per hour... or sometimes even 3 per hour :D That´s a quick thing taking 3-8 minutes (depending on how much strokes each of the kanji have, or if there´s one where you need a bit longer to come up with a story), I don´t have any problems starting and at the end of the day I still have my 25 (sometimes even more!)- True Story. Today is a cool day- I would have enough time to even split them up to 2 per hour - on the other hand...thursday is my long day at school and there I´ll go for 7, or 8 per hour. But hey - in my ears it still sounds better than 25 in a row. I don´t know if this is just working for me - but I wanted to share my technique - maybe it´s a lil help for some of you out there? Oh, look at tha watch - perfect timing. Dear 5 Kanji - HERE I COME!!

And it´s always Pokémon <3

When I was a child I got to know pokémon via a few friends of mine who attended the same school as I did. They were older than I and knew how to read - i didn´t, but I always watched them playing. A little bit later I got my first GBA together with Pkmn Silver and even right now I can feel the exact same excitement as I felt back then... <3 However, I was in the first class, but couldn´t read very well, cuz we still lacked many of the letters - we were damn slow with these..or our teachers was... Even tough - as soon as we had all of them completed I started seeing the whole game in a new light. Okay, my dad had sometimes read out what the texts said when I thought it could be important - but then I´d been able to read it all by myself. ... it took me about one week to improve my reading-skills so much...well... I could read Harry Potter books with the age of 6. However, thanks to Pkmn I´m even in the class which I attend nowadays the best with reading, cuz I had spent...literally days playing the games <3 Now I feel like 6 years old again, because I´m playing the game on Japanese now. I know all the hiragana and katakana and I´m  doing pretty good with my reading - but it still could be better... I don´t understand the words yet, as I concentrate on learning kana and Kanji (German meaning and how to write - when I´ve finished with that I´ll take all the learned kanjis and learn the on and kun readings of them :) but it still feels like learning how to read...again...

....haha, I think the old memories led me to choose Pkmn to be the game which would help me with all this <3 (I´ll get myself some other jap. games soon, but pkmn is one of my evergreens... it just won´t grow old <3 ...and since I used to know Pkmn silver including all the Pkmn, all their attacks and all the ways and dungeons by heart...it´s no problem if I had a problem with the understanding in Soul Silver - all the things to do are still in my head :D) So, for learning japanese... I followed the advice of AJATT (all japanese all the time) by slowly increasing my japanese input more and more and making a game out of the whole thing :) I could still do better (yeah... I could learn my daily kanji right now, but don´t worry.. that´ll come right after I puplish this post!) but hey - slowly, but steady, right?

...and fuck. It´s effin´ hard remembering all the Pkmn´s names new in Japanese now |D ... my teammates all have nicknames - so I won´t have to remember their exact names... <___< (I don´t even know the English one´s! |D Shame on me... but with the german one´s im still kick ass :D)

HELL YES! I got how these fucking equations work!

Mathe-exam - beho~ld my mawefic powers! °____°

[lifesloading-blog]

Me, when I realized what I still had to do for mathematics.

(Srsly - this is like my most favourite screenshot of the whole first season |D <3)

[lifesloading-blog]

Oh boy... Wednesday is this fucking important mathematics exam and I´m so insecure about it.. This year we have a new teacher - and everyone is afraid of that women. Somebody on facebook even posted: "Well - when you see your first exam of her, you know what dying feels like...". Some day I think "YES! I GONNA MAKE IT!" and now again I´m all like "Oh shit... I´ll fail so hard..." I seriously try to think positive, because self-fulfilling prophecies and all that stuff, but it´s kinda hard...from time to time...

I just hope that I´ll be positive on that damn exam. I just pray and hope so much for it... I´ll even take my little plush-dango with me because it´s like a lucky charm in some way . 3 . But hey - after this is over... I´ll have more time... (actually not, but each minute not spent with mathematics is a good one... yeah, also bad to think that way, but right now I just can´t help myself...) Just look forward to Wednesday evening, just look forward to it... <__o

I even attached this pic on my wall and printed it as poster for myself |D" Yes, I like Yúsei when he´s in pain u__ü

By the way.. learned ma 1357th Kanji today. Damn, wanna be at 1500 before December starts but not that sure if I can make that... no - false way of thinking! Of course I can! ORE GA AWESOME DA! °   ^ °) /

I´m thinking of getting the tribal which Jack has on his skin as tattoo for myself. I always wanted something yu-gi-oh! related, but the Crimson Dragon seems a bit awkward to me ( I don´t like his design too much..) and a criminal mark in the face wouldn´t be too good :D Also thought about Malefic Paradox Dragon but sadly I didn´t find any good pictures D: Still pondering and thinking, but... I have time until January - then I´ll get my tattoo. Maybe it will really be this one - this, or a hyena.

[lifesloading-blog]

One of my most favorite pictures of Placido |D <3 Damn, why couldn´t they make his design in the anime this way? This would have been the best Duel Runner in the whole series |´D <3

Took it from DeviantArt - pic was made by Riechstag. Look up the artist´s gallery - there are quite some nice other pics! :D

Ah, I remember him...

That´s Nuru - a dragon from the kingdom of Sun - yeah. I never had an idea for a cooler name - shame on me. However, he´s a young prince, but he isn´t too happy about that. Instead of learning, being all calm and more serious he enjoys flying around, scaring people, sometimes playing tricks on them and setting things on fire. He doesn´t want to make trouble, he´s just... very active . . . He has a bigger brother who was once supposed to be King , but well... an accident happened and by this his brother never got the ability to spit fire - which is more than necessary as it is a) a symbol of strenght and the Sun and b) the key to many more abilities. Yeah - on this pic it shows Nuru a little older than I once wanted him to look, but even tough I like it. His story is still stuck in my brain -better type it in a document, before I might forget it...

I did this a half year ago - you could say this is my current style on drawing wolves - and stuff like that. However, I want it to look more... special... more unique. . . a bit more chibi-ish - but not a total chibi. err... sorry for the lame talk without any sense - it´s pretty late here in Austria and I was drawing till now (which led me to the current frustration which I´m facing right now...) A few other old drawings may follow - my apologies.

[lifesloading-blog]

From time to time I have I feel this urgent need to change my drawing style - immediately and eye-catching. Like a half turn-around, ya know? Well, then I practise... get good results.. I am pleased with it and want to continue this way... but as time passes by I slowly slip back to my old style....

It´s frustrating! . _ . Well, tomorrow I´ll make another attempt on learning a new style... but first... sleep - duuh...

Safe our Internet!

Sorry guys - no ygo 5D´s or cosplay pictures now - also no rant and drooling over games, but instead something that should be important to all of us.

http://www.avaaz.org/en/save_the_internet/?fp

Right now, the US Congress is debating a law that would give them the power to censor the world's Internet -- creating a blacklist that could target YouTube, WikiLeaks and even groups like Avaaz! Under the new law, the US could force Internet providers to block any website on suspicion of violating copyright or trademark legislation, or even failing to sufficiently police their users' activities. And, because so much of the Internet's hosts and hardware are located in the US, their blacklist would clamp down on the free web for all of us.

The vote could happen any day now, but we can help stop this -- champions in Congress want to preserve free speech and tell us that an international outcry would strengthen their hand. Let’s urgently raise our voices from every corner of the world and build an unprecedented global petition calling on US decision makers to reject the bill and stop Internet censorship. Sign now and then forward as widely as possible -- our message will be delivered directly to key members of the US Congress ahead of the crucial vote.

I like my internet the way it is - so thanks, but no thanks <3 Guys and Girls - The internet needs your help. Can it count on you, like you could count on it whenever you needed it? :)

[lifesloading-blog]

Oh - and this is, cuz I can.

Did I ever post this pic? Don´t think so...

However, it is my most favourite picture of Paradox - man, I can´t wait to print it n to pin it on my wall <3 No, rly... the person who drew this is damn talented :3

[lifesloading-blog]

I hate mathe for taking my precious time which I could spend on drawing or learning japanese.... and cuz I don´t want to live without that, my sleep has to suffer... Okay- yeah, of course I could actually spend more time on this things than I do right now, but I´m also a lazy person... derp..

Gonna spend some time with my beloved Kanji now |D" (Glad I don´t need to practise English for tomorrow´s test - I mean sure, I´m like centuries away from fluency, but... compared to my classmates I´m a native speaker - at least kind of...)

Pretty hard day - don´t even want to count how many hours I´ve spent with doing maths... can´t wait for next Thursday when the exam will be over |D (And then I`ll probably be able to continue with my final Fantasy XIII - 100% run)

My dear Playstation 3 - I miss you D:

This awesomeness is killing me right naow!

There´s an Advent Calendar of Yu-gi-oh! 5D´s! x´D

Oh my gosh - the last one I actually had was filled with chocolate and this was about... 3 years ago? Never thought about getting myself one, but this is just kick-ass! :´D I mean - every day a new, rare card and... the Signer Dragons are in it <3 (A friend of mine told me he got all 6 and as far as I know Stardust and Demons are officially in all of them, but.. actually I think all the cards are the same for each calendar...) However, I´m SO gonna buy one for me (and my deck!) :´D

1st Day of Nintendo - Challenge

Day One - your favourite Game series.

Well, actually there are so many series I enjoy, but... I think the most important to me is Pokémon. Yeah, Legend of Zelda is also great, but I grew up with pkmn - I played it before I was even able to read. I learned reading with it - and I am learning to read japanese with it now again.

Pokémon was a very huge part of my life - and partially it still is. I will never forget all the times my friends and me held tournaments, or when we´d all give our best to complete the dex. I won´t ever forget when we played it by ourselves, being all trainer or Pokémon - and I will never forget the feeling when I completed my first run on pkmn smaragd with my dex all full.

Pokémon means still so much to me - I can´t put it in words <3 I enjoyed black and white, but so far - and I think that´ll never ever change - Hoenn is my one-true-love when it comes to the generation <3  [But I won´t deny that I´m utterly attracted to N - but....who is not? |D"]

Yeah, so I think this one is finished :D If you have any questions such as how long I´ve played /game-time, my most favourite pkmn, my team, the most awkward situations I´ve ever been... just ask :D

Oh Ezio...

you and leonardo always make my day! x´D

Just found a hilarious scene of the game in which Ezio and Leonardo are sitting on a bench, talking, chit-chatting and suddenly leo says something like: "You know, I haven´t been all too attracted to the female gender lately..." Then Ezio is like:" How do you mean that?" And Leonardo just smiles! x´D

Gosh - don´t know if this dialog is also in the English version, but in the German one it is. I srsly love Brotherhood for that - I just so love it right now <3

If I may edit - i found the youtube video xD
