cosfest in one month~~ hope its gonna be a blast as usual

btw my dance pad's working. but it just has to rebel against me and insist on making me use the arrows diagonally cos it wont allow two of the normal arrows at once.

JUST YESTERDAY I GOT A NEW COMPY~ not personal (aka for me alone) yet, but still. its way cool. like 1440x900 pixels screen (kinda squished though, i guess). kind of a hassle installing all the stuff again but ohwell. its really fast, and its vista. thus its almost mac-ish, but somewhat better, i hope.

i've been cging my old sketch abit, but its stuck on the hard drive now, and i dont think i installed adobe ps on this yet... >__> gar what a hassle. its coming along fine, hair done (though slightly weirdish) and the rest of the base colors planned & done, but not really shadowed and stuff. i totally need more practice. and i need to learn to ink. though ill end up butchering half the stuff that i so suckily drew already. gah firefox is making me feel stupid spelling nonexistent words. blame the new dictionary program or whatchamucallit. gah nonexistent word huh.

lets talk about yesterday, and why i hate gb. not all of why i hate it, and not exactly that i dont like it at all, but this was just irritating.

so. yesterday i had to wake up at 7.30am (not too bad considering the time i wake up for school usually, but these are the holidays, so..) and arrived at kcpss for my gb leadership conference at 8.20, which soon started at 8.30. so. the teacher i/c seemed to be some weirdo. okay not exactly but. she treated us like kids and called us children. i mean, girls is fine (all of us in GIRLS brig after all) but children was kinda blatant... although i know we really do look like children in her eyes, but she could give us the least respect, right. nevermind that, but it was praise and worship and she gave us two simple songs to sing (you'da thought she could at least get some musician/pianist/guitarist/WhateverTheDrink(kidding) to get us into the mood for worship, but NOOO, she had to make us stand in circles and attempt to make us run round like kids. and all the while she called us children.

anyway, after that we had the workshop we signed up for, which was pretty much pointless for mine cos it just told us to follow our heart and that not every decision is final and whatever but it doesnt seem to help cos im still very indecisive even for food. and yes it was about decisionmaking. 2 hours. and that was the whole point of 12-hour conference (for promotion 's sake if you see it that way)

lunch was not very appetising. slightly-spicy veg + spicy potato + other weird forgettable meat. plus rice of course. and some kind soul i knew just HAD to stuff all the veg to me. dinner as well, though dinner was kinda diff cos the meat was slightly more appetising. she totally doesnt look like a carnivore, but looks are deceiving. kind soul my foot.

after that we had drill for 2 WHOLE HOURS. LIKE DO THEY WANT US TO DIE OR DO THEY WANT US TO FRY. both huh. knew it. lucky the corporal taking my group wasnt that mean and let us go in the shade after the first 30min (at most). they made us remove our watches so i was totally unaware of how long i had been standing there squinting my eyes at her. to heck with drill.

we had some weird talk about sarah and esther and stuff but i dont see how it helped me much. nor was it especially memorable...

after that we had stupid games. no prizes in the end even, and i dont see how it builds teamwork. or maybe im just not social. and then we had dinner.

then, some cleanup which took awhile, and a talk which was somewhat uninteresting. sigh. AND WE WERE DISMISSED AT 8.10PM. (at first it was 8.30 but we ended early so i should be thankful but i find that hard, really.)

if you notice from the above,
barely anything after drill was useful. (drill is compulsory for leadership conferences so it cant be helped i guess) in other words IT COULD HAVE FRKING ENDED AT 3.30PM, BUT THEY JUST HAD TO STRETCH IT 5 HOURS MORE. gaaaaaaaaahhh.

"I KNOW I CAN KEEL" from abingdon's HOWLING lol.

well thats all, for my complaints and rants. hope singapore will be somewhat not-so-mean in their local anime ban. its kinda freaking me out, really.
