Its been far too long, blog!

Oh, where to begin. It has been so hectic. Have you heard the news? I'm 20! Oh, the joy of reaching near adulthood. This event occurred on the 15th of October, on which day I also was blessed with the happenings of my car breaking down, losing my lucky ring, eating terrible asian food, and being miserable as one of my friend's decided to throw nothing but drama at me while we were shopping that afternoon. Tell me, where is the love?
Oh, alls well that ends well. I was later treated to many amazing bday videos from YT friends and my best friend brought me cake at 11 p.m. It turned out to be quite a nice evening.

Unfortunately, my car never recovered. A similar break down happened last year and the temp fix we had done in December 08 served its purpose of merely being "temp." Now the car is officially done. So since October, I've had to punk my friends and family into giving me rides to and fro. I'm constantly on the look out for a new car, despite my lack of a down payment. Some friends of ours might be giving me one of their cars for free, so that might be the best route. I wouldn't have to make payments on a car I dont really like, and I can start saving up for a down later on. This takes me one step closer to the ultimate goal of owning my precious Black Jetta, Golf, and/or Audi <3
It will complete me.

Aside from that trauma, things have been well. I'm almost finished with my Fall quarter of school! I'm so stoked on Christmas break. This year, I'm going all out for the Holidays, and hoping to make many snowboarding trips.

I would like to throw out a few apologies for my current inactiveness on youtube! I haven't had the time to work on my full-length films, although I do plan to have my main project done before Christmas. Also! Something else to look forward to before Christmas, the first episode of the official K-On! Fandub! I'm so proud of it already. I have a lovely cast and we're in the process of recording. I'll be doing all the editing myself. I think it will turn out wonderfully! :]

Clannad The Abridged Series!.. 0__e Needless to say, TBS came after us, as I expected they would eventually. I'm a bit surprised that they took so long to find us! We've been official since August 1st, but TBS didn't catch us until early November. It was nice while it lasted! I've insisted that we need to relocate the main account, but as of right now we've only come to a joint agreement on making a back-up account. Shadowfoxx85 has decided to try re-uploading the episodes to the clannadTAS channel. Le sigh...we'll see how far that gets.
I'm not very devastated about all this, honestly. I find myself caring less and less about CTAS. I don't wish to abandon it, but TBS makes me so discouraged. We'll see. If we get more strikes, I almost see no point in continuing, unless we were to make our own website like TeamFourStar did. And even then, our series isn't nearly popular enough to take part in a venture like that. Oh well, there's always the abridged underground!
Meanwhile, both shadowfoxx85 and I are brainstorming ideas for episode 3, and he's waiting for me to make the announcement video reguarding these matters..... I should probably do that.

Oh the life of a nerd. I missed it so <3 I am currently watching Kamichu (episode 10) and Earth Girl Arjuna (W/SUBS!!) (episode 10). I find myself loving Arjuna so much. At first I wasn't sure about it, it's pretty controversial. But the subject of the story is intriguing to me, as I am "save the planet" crazed myself. Perhaps not to that extent, but its in my ballpark. Kamichu is adorable! But DO NOT watch the dub. Funimation did an awful job. Come to me and I'll hook you up with subs if you'd like. I have many other animes lined up to watch over the coming break...amoung my list, I'm most looking forward to Higashi no Eden and Kimi ni Todoke. There are so many others, but those two seem to stand out in my mind.

Is anyone as excited for Black Rock Shooter as I am?? April bebe! Now THAT'S my type of animation. The detail, the color, and character designs. So gorgeous. I personally can't wait to edit with it. -drools-

So, what keeps me busy in the editing world, aside from the abridged series and my fandub? I've been working on many MEP's for SSP as of late. I love them so. They are always down for some sort of fun excursion. I've found myself growing as an editor, thanks to them. Expect to see some awesome mep's coming out soon!
Frozen Wonderland Studios is beginning to gain activity again! I'm so glad!
Other groups I'm debating on dropping out of, because I simply don't have the time, espiecally when most of them are inactive.

Well, so many wonderful videos have caught my eye recently, but here is my favorite atm:

Oh, it is love.

Anyway, I've perhaps bored you at this point. The word "nap" come to mind. I only have today to finish a massive mep part, study for my anthropology test, and clean my room. I'm about to kill over though, so time for a bit of sloth mode.
