Stolen from someone's journal over at some other site somewhere. c:

Does anyone know where I can get some simple brushes for my Photoshop? All I can find is brushes that look like fucking skulls and swirls and whatnot, and all I want a freaking calligraphy brush. All I have is the default PS brushes, like normal round ones and round ones with fuzzy edges, and those leaves and grass brushes.... Besides, I've seen a whole bunch of people using this kind of brush in their art, I wonder were they got it... :T

Why does Miranda have to be such a bitch around aliens? Anyways I'm halfway through ME2 for the third time now, and still exploring new stuff. It's like it never ends. @w@

I also have to add that not only is the story AWESOME, but the graphics and sounds are most excellent. Everywhere you go you see flashy doors and colorful environments. No place is like the other, nor are the missions. Each one is unique. Unlike the first game where half the missions were in the same place, only slightly different placements on the scenery. :\ Tho I kinda miss having so many missions to do...
And for a game spanning two discs it wasn't too long. Well, if you rush through everything it wasn't. xP
I remember the first one taking me about a whole 18 hours to complete, I spent a whole week on it. This one is a little shorter, tho it definitely last A LOT longer than any other game out there :3 Nevertheless, the game was AWESOME and I recommend buying it if you haven't already or are thinking of doing so. Actually, buy two! Give the other one to your friend or cousin!

So this is why I haven't been doing anything here on dA, I've been geeking in front of that game for the last weeks or so. When I've played it through for another 5 or 6 times I'll get back to arting more

Also, Miranda is a bitch.

Ok so my dad just bought a new computer from work today. His old computer had a little dent in it's aluminum casing, and so he needed a new one, which is identical to the old one. The thing that bugs me with this? Instead of making use of the old one - which is perfectly fine except for some super-minor aesthetic issues - it will be placed downstairs to be used once a week for something that can be done on any of our 5 other computers. So now we have 2 computers that mostly just sit and collect dust, 3 if you count with my sister's machine which she hardly uses anymore... I don't want to sound like a spoiled little bitch, but seriously, why do we need 6 computers for 4 people? Also, I asked my dad if I could trade my current, crappy one for his old one which is going to sit down there for no apparent reason, and he said that I should keep mine, because he wants the fast one to be downstairs instead of my old one. It just seems like such a waste... I mean, he doesn't even NEED a new computer. The one we have downstairs already is fine. But instead he wastes money on stuff we already have. We could use the money to renovate our old bathroom, or even better: donate it to sick children in Africa! But instead we use it to buy yet another computer, which we really DON'T need! And instead of doing anything with the old downstairs-one, we're just gonna put it away somewhere, "archive" it.

To me, this seems like some serious bullshit. Tho I feel better now. .3.
