A plague on both your houses!

(For the record...the last time I updated was on the 25th of August last year. Go figure >>;. Anyhow...)
I went to the theatre yesterday to watch a production from the National Ballet Company of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. Now. When I read the play...I found it quite dull (especially when juxtaposed against Othello, which I read straight afterwards and loved)...but after watching this ballet, I will have to reconsider re-reading this play :3. It was <3. Absolute and utter <33. And I was allowed to take photos during the show, which was good fun (huzzah for zoom lenses!)~
Hehe. I am such a sucker for antagonists and tragedies XD. Don't ask me why, but I was totally rooting for the ballet's Tybalt instead of rooting for Romeo 8D. And all the deaths/super dramatic scenes were so beautifully executed ;__;...
Anyhow...I am tempted to upload some of the photos at some point...but we'll see 8). Knowing me, I'll probably forget before I manage to do so ><;.
+ + +
On another completely different note, my friend Yamamoto-Kou recently got me into an anime called Soul Eater, so if you suddenly see an overload of SE fanart from me, do forgive me~
Especially if said fanart contains a certain Dr. Stein ^ ^;.
Ehe...
+ + +
Also, OH! I went to see WICKED a few months ago.
Love.
Love. Love. Love.
This musical has now totally and officially become my #1 fave.
If I ever am fortunate enough to see [i]Sweeney Todd[/i] on stage, this preference may change. But, for now, <3~~!
+ + +
As for the quote that gets updated every time I update my journal (i.e....never?), here you go XD:
Athos: "What gives you the right to judge me, to play God with the lives of others? Is it because you're so much holier than everyone else?"
Aramis: "Well yes, there is that. But also because I'm more intelligent than anybody else."

Kiri...who?
2 min read
Wow. I was beginning to get really sick of my last journal entry :3! Can you believe I last updated my journal on December...last year xD?!
Anyhow!
Remember that 1000 kiriban picture I began talking about...at the start of last year?
WELL...I finally decided to sit down and draw it (I'm up to colouring it now) and it will be posted shortly.
Or at least, that's the plan T.T;;.
Just a recap on what the kiriban actually was...
xCalee asked me to draw her character Amara (who can now be found in her scraps HERE and HERE), and, if possible, include something relating to Riku (from KH).
Now I just need to actually finish it and post it (without further procrastination).
Oh dear, wish me luck xP.

Oh, and before I forget, these are the clubs I've joined:

Oh, and I was just looking through some of my previous journals when I discovered I used to keep a 'quote of the month'.
So, here I go again (except that this shall be a 'quote of the whenever-I-can-be-bothered-to-update'!)
"But--sing?
Dream, laugh, go lightly, solitary, free,
With eyes that look straight forward--fearless voice!
To cock your beaver just the way you choose,--
For 'yes' or 'no' show fight, or turn a rhyme!
--To work without one thought of gain or fame,
To realize that journey to the moon!
Never to pen a line that has not sprung
Straight from the heart within. Embracing then
Modesty, say to oneself, 'Good my friend,
Be thou content with flowers,--fruit,--nay, leaves,
But pluck them from no garden but thine own!'
And then, if glory come by chance your way,
To pay no tribute unto Caesar, none,
But keep the merit all your own! In short,
Disdaining tendrils of the parasite,
To be content, if neither oak nor elm--
Not to mount high, perchance, but mount alone!"
Cyrano de Bergerac, by Edmond Rostand.
Anyhow!
