'kay, that's it.

Tue Oct 21, 2008, 11:52 AM
  • Mood: Thanks
  • Listening to: QUEEN - My life has been saved
I'm really fed up, for I can't produce any kind of art that's dA worthy.

For that, I've decided finally to leave DeviantArt.

Temporarily or for good - I don't know. But I might come back when I get my inspiration back and my life back in order and stuff. Yeah, I'm dealing with some issues here. Mainly about my mental health, and I'm suffering from a identity crisis, or something like that.

For people who've watched me recently; I'm sorry that I haven't updated or anything, but I'm more than happy to see that I still haven't been completely forgotten, even if I haven't been active on the art-side.
For people who might still fav my works; I'm not going to delete my works, so you can favorite them, if you so please(this has happened, even if I haven't been active! from Journal or Art-side). I'm not going to delete journals either. If you do favorite my works or some nutcase watches me, I thank you in advance. :heart:

And for those who've watched/favorited my works recently; I'm sorry I haven't thanked! 's just that I've been extremely lazy/unispired to reply to my dA messages.. ): (Which is a reason why I haven't replied to your comments people) So thank you, and I'm sorry? XD;

You can also unwatch me if you wish so, but I don't encourage you to do so, for as I said, it's not sure if this is for good. I might come back one day.. (:

Even if I haven't been able to submit anything "dA-worthy", that doesn't mean I've stopped drawing completely! I still sometimes update my LiveJournal and my Finnish blog with my crappy sketches. I update my blog more often than my LJ. The only bad thing about it is that, that it's in Finnish as I said. :/ But if that doesn't bother you, you can stil look at the pictures(that I post often) and sketches! :3 I'm still going to be active with my website, but I haven't updated it in so long. I gotta do something about it ..
Blogi on tosiaan suomeksi ja jonne kirjotan useammin kuin liveen, että jos joku haluaa kuulumisia tältä taholta kuulla niin voipi sieltä lukea! Ellei joku sitten tee jo niin.

And of course, I'm awailable from IRC-Galleria. And from MySpace and Facebook, too! As for FB, just search for "Laura Jantunen". So I'm not completely out from the internets, even if I'm going to leave dA behind.

I wish everything good for you all! See ya someday!

Thank you, and goodbye. :heart:

Animecon's over

Wed Jul 30, 2008, 4:55 AM

  • Listening to: Susumu Hirasawa - Murder
ONCE AGAIN, EDITING TO AN OLD JOURNAL. XDD I'm so pro.

But but, Animecon was great, met up with old friends, and made some new ones, too! I wrote a HUGE-ASS Journal entry to my LJ with lots of pictures, go and see it!

I had a great time, thank you everyone who hang out with me and came to say hi! :heart: :heart:
__________


This isn't anything big, so I don't want to put up a whole new journal for this .. Editing the old one's my job. o/ I do that almost all the time. XD

Animecon's is like.. REAAALLY soon. In two days! Who's coming? If someone wants to come say hi to me, I'll be cosplaying Judeau from Berserk. Here's an image of the costume, so you'll recognize me. BUT; If I chicken out and won't cosplay, you'll recognize me from my hat. :'D Come say hi to me, I love meeting people. o/ But be afraid, if you come say hi to me, I'M GONNA TAKE YOUR PICTURE TO REMEMBER YOU BY WITH MY SUPAA AWESOME CAMERA. Okay it's not that awesome. But I WILL take a picture of you, seriously. I have to. >:

Oh and .. Sorry that I haven't replied to your comments etc etc, I'VE BEEN SUPER LAZY WITH DA LATELY. I'll reply to them eventually!


____________

I superduper hate this font, so lets switch to the smaller one.

.. Long, LONG time no see, right? Hee. I've been extremely unactive here for the past... half year? :'> I apologize for that. But SO much has been happening around here, plus I'm SUPER busy and SUPER lasy to actually produce anything dA-worthy. But I'll try my best to submit something! .. And I should update my other account too. :I WHAT YOU MEAN I'M LAZY?! D:

My summerjob is killing me. I work from abt 1am to 6am. I've been there for a couple of weeks now, 'only' three weeks remaining. I deliver the morning paper, you see. And of course, since I don't have a car or a license, I do it with my bike. So when it rains, it's not so sweet! But it'll be over soon.

I'm nearly finished with FFVII Crisis Core. ..the JP version, that is. >__>; I got my Crisis Core!PSP a while ago, and of course the game came along with it. So, of course, I couldn't resist and started playing it. I've managed to play pretty well so far, I'm in chapter 7 now. But I don't want to finish it.. I want to finish the english version. q__q I guess I'll just have to hang in there and wait 'till I get my copy of the game plus the limited edition artbook. They should arrive soon, since I got an email from gameplay that they sent it last week.. Kekeke. But it's such an awesome game, uhuhu. The only thing that bothers me, is that everything happens so fast .. I mean, you don't really get to know Angeal so well to be shocked when he disappears or when he.... you prolly know. I don't want to spoil those who don't know, teehee. But otherwise that, it's great. I'm suprised that I've managed to play the JP version this far. Because, well, my japanese ain't that great.

Nekocon's soon over here @ Finland, Kuopio. I was gonna show up in there, but ah, I'm working .. So it'll be no nekocon for me. But thankfully I'm able to come to Animecon. Well, DUUUHH it's held here in Tampere, haha. Aivan muuten te ketkä meille TAAS olisitte tunkemassa, en osaa sanoo majotuksesta mitään, koska ei oo varmaa lähteekö äite sillon pois vai ei. Sen näkee sitten. But yeah yeah. Who's coming to Animecon? I sure am, as I said. And I'll be doing something I've wanted to do for a while - I'm gonna COSPLAY! :0 The costume is really, REALLY simple, but I still want to do it. I'll let ya know who I'm gonna cosplay, but not yet. I MAY have mentioned it here somewhere in my prev journals, but I just can't remember. Some people already know who I'm going to cosplay, like ~MatsuoKumiko, who'll be doing the costume for me. I'd do it myself but ah, I don't know how, and I don't have anything to work with. Sob.

Mommy I don't want to go to work today. :I (It's 00:40 am here, I gotta leave soon..)

DAMN DA WON'T LET ME CHANGE MY MOOD! Or then it's my browser messin' with me..

/EDIT @ 06:45am
Almost forgot.
I got tagged by :iconhopealuoti:

* 1. Post these rules.
* 2. Each tagged person must post 8 things about their self on their journal.
* 3. At the end, you have to choose and tag 8 people and post their icons on the same journal.
* 4. Go to their pages and send a message saying you tagged them.
* 5. No tag-backs.

1. My feet hurts right now. More specifically, my KNEES hurts. Pretty badly, actually. Can't walk properly, yay. 8D THIS IS WHAT DELIVERING THE MORNING PAPER DOES TO YOU!
2. I'm tired and I want to go to sleep.
3. I don't know what the hell I should do with my life.
4. I haven't drawn in a looooong time because I'm busy, and work eats up all my energy.
5. Even after losing over 30kg, I see myself as a fattie. :I There's no helping it.
6. If I had money, I'd go to a surgery to fix mah boobs. Not to make them bigger, just.. fix. I HAS SAGGY BOOBS. And THAT ya all wanted to know. ;D harhar. Excuse me, I'm tired.
7. .. If I had MORE money after fixing my boobs, I'd go fix my face. Srsly. I hate my face, and I'm jealous to every pretty person there is. D: I don't look neither a boy, nor a girl .. The only thing that shows which gender I am, are these damn melons(read; boobs). +_+
8. I take every negative thing about me TOO literally, but when someone says someting positive about me, I don't believe them at all. I just think that "They're just pretending it to make me feel good about myself".

... Not taggin' anyone! Do if ya want, I'm le tired to tag.

SLEEEEEEP. (end @ 06:55 am)

WEBSITE -- PLAY THE GAME

I guess..

  • Listening to: Susumu Hirasawa - Ride the blue limbo


.. I could stay a little longer.

I KNEW this would happen. XD Next time I say I'll leave, no one'll take me seriously.. But you know, almost all of my online friends are here, and if I left, I wouldn't be able to be in touch with them so easily. :I So I'll try to hang in here. Happy now?

Work's been great, and time has gone superduper fast. Soon it's summerbreak and time for all the fun! .. Except if you want a summerjob, like me. BD I actually had an interview yesterday, it went well. Let's hope I'll get the job!

My birthday was last sunday, and I'm an adult now. I don't feel any different, but I guess the 'shock' comes afterwards. I got a present from my co-workers at work, I was so happy. :'3

I should be going to work soon(it starts @ 1130am), yet here I am .. @_@ Oh, is anyone @ Tegaki E? I made an account, but haven't drawn anything there yet. :I I go as Lamppu there.

Commissions are still open, and I'd do them more than gladly. (:

But I'm off to work now, I don't wanna be late!

I HAS A LIFE. /smallish edit

Journal Entry: Mon Mar 24, 2008, 12:52 PM
  • Mood: Stupefied
  • Listening to: Susumu Hirasawa - INDRA
  • Watching: Black Adder (HELL YEAH)


// EDIT, oh, this is not a big edit, just filling your dewmessages for fun. ~ No, not really. Bolded some of the songs people recognized(C'MON, RECOGNIZE MOAR! TRY AT LEAST!) and added a small thing on the birthday thing... Nuffin' big. I also thought of doing "one last artwork before I leave". XD;

--------------

Bumb, hi people! Sorry I haven't been active lately, but ... I have a life now, ya know?! The reason is, that I got a damn job. 'Bout time, I'd say.

Yeah, as I said, I have a job! Well, not a job, I'm a trainee, ya know. But I'm gonna get some money, yeah! The only thing that bothers me now is to get a summerjob, and a place to go as a trainee after summer. :I Oh well..! I've sent a few applications to few places for a summerjob, we'll see how it goes. I'd be more than ready to work the whole summer, after being at home doing almost nothing for almost two years. Oh but I DID something ....... Like lose over 30kg, heha. But but the work. It's a real nice place, my co-workers are really, REALLY nice. It doesn't even bother me that I'm the only non-religious there, lulz. But now that I have a job, means that I have less time to draw.

I finished watching the anime Berserk and reading the manga up-to-date(I've been lazy). I'm sure that many of you have at least heard of it? Well .. it's fucking awesome series. Srsly. I cried rivers in the last episode of the anime(because one of my favourite characters died). 8'D I'm not usually into series like Berserk RAAAHH VIOLENCE AND BLOOOOD FLYING ALL OVER THE PLACE, but ... it's hard to explain what drew me to it, and what really made me like it(THE FACT THAT THE ANIME HAS SUSUMU'S MUSIC HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH IT). I'm waiting the new chapter with a huge "glee"-grin on my face.

I'd like to recommend a goood song for ya all. o/ It's Sign-2 by Susumu Hirasawa. It's a remix of the opening of Berserk PS2 videogame(can't remember the correct name,dooohh), Sign, but to be honest I like the remix more. You don't need to be a fan of Berserk or Susumu to like this song, 'cause it's simply awesome. 8D I didn't even know it was from Berserk, before I saw the trailer which had that music. Susumu's music is very different from what you usually hear nowadays, and that's the reason I fell in love with it. It's unique. *___* God I love you Susumu. Oh yes yes the song ......
Here's a youtube link to a video, where you can hear the Sign-2. It's a Kenshin AMV(the OVA series, it's fugging awesome, SO WATCH IT IF YA HAVEN'T). If ya want to hear the original Sign, here's a link to it too(though it's not a full ver. >__> ). Damn, after watching that video, I want that game ...... :'D It's only been released in Japan and Korea. >_> I WONDER IF PLAY-ASIA HAS IT?! ... Fuck it's out of stock. ;______;
If anyone would like to have the song(either of 'em), just drop me a few lines and I'll give it to ye! I recommend Susumu's music to you, seriously. .......Oh the hell with it, I'll just spam some youtube links.

Susumu Hirasawa - Nigeru mono (from PAPRIKA)
Susumu Hirasawa - Sim City
Susumu Hirasawa - Rotation (Lotus-2) (this isn't a full ver, either ;__; )
Susumu Hirasawa - Yume no shima shinen kouen
Susumu Hirasawa - Run
Susumu Hirasawa - Chiyoko no theme(mode1)
Susumu Hirasawa - WORLD CELL Those game noises are bothering me .. >_>
Susumu Hirasawa - Forces
Susumu Hirasawa - INDRA <-- I'm currently addicted to that one. XD

I really hope you'd check these out. Because it makes me pretty damn annoyed, when I post youtube links to people and they don't bother to watch 'em. I watch every youtube link my friends give me, even if I wouldn't care rat's ass what it's about, or if I wouldn't be interested. I watch it, because I want to be polite, and because they want to share something they like with me makes me feel somewhat .. I dunno, special? Is it so hard to ask the same? If it is, kiss my ass. But yeah .. Unfortunately, youtube doesn't have the other songs I absolutely love. D: There's maaaaaany songs I love from Susumu. If you're interested hearing more, let me know. I've got loaaaaaaaads of Susumu on my computer. His music is worth to listen. And don't get me wrong, I don't mind if you won't check them right away, if you're busy etc. It's okay if you watch/listen them later.

Also, you should check Tujiko Noriko, too. THIS is the kind of japanese music I mostly enjoy. You know, almost everyone likes some supaaa famous J-Rock artist/band atm, I don't. It makes me go all "AAAAAGH" when someone mentiones like .. Dir En Grey, The GazettE etcetc. I just can't stand it. Mainly because all the fans are sum goddamn .. wapanese(haha sorry, couldn't come up with anything better). Sorry if YOU like these supaaa famous j-bands, this is just my opinion. Susumu, Nobuo and Tujiko ftw. o/ They haven't been ruined, at least not yet.

...... Haa, enough of that. Sorry, I just had this urge to spread sum Susumu luv.

My birthday's soon(6th of April, FYI). ~ Oh uhm, ~deadcherry wanted to know what I want for my birthday. Well, to be honest .. I have no idea. Anything to do with cats, my fandoms, blahvlahblahah. Oh wait yeah .... DOGTAGS(and let them be blank, plz. Like; no text or anything). Hehehe. I bought one for myself from Stuntman, but then one of our cats friggin' stole it. >__> I've searched and searched, and I still haven't been able to find it. There's also a CidVin doujinshi I've been droolin' after a gooood while, but since I can't buy from eBay... Behh. There's also a un-translated version, which is cheaper. I'd buy it myself, but as I said, I can't. ú___ù I'm not sure if those links work, if not, lemme know. o/ Drawings and money are always welcome. B) Oh shi -- I sound so unfair now. Of course, you people don't have to get anything for me, but of course I'd be more than happy to know that I mean something. Mut Laura jossää haluat mul jotaa ostaa, ni osta joku frendien kausi vitosesta kymppiin, ku muistaakseni sanoit että voisit jonku frendien kauden ostaa tai jtn. XD ku mul o jopa neloseen saakka .. Ihan sama mikä niistä kausista, ku kuitenki ostan ne loput sitte. :'D Mää ostan sulle sitte kans jotaa synttärilahjaks. o/

// EDIT forgot to say ... Anything from my amazon wishlist is also very much welcome(link belooooww..). But as I said; you don't have to get me anything - unless you really want to. Also YAAAY my mom's making me a cake. :'DD
Oh, and ~bobthescaryman .. I'm not sure if yer reading this, but if ya are, I'd like to know when I'm gonna receive that package you promised me like .......... over a year ago??? D: IsoundlikeabitchI'msosorrybutIreallywanttoknowifyou'regonnasenditornot. >__>;

Oh right, ganked from *shiii-kun

Step 1: Put your iTunes or equivalent on random.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 25 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing.
Step 3: Bold out the songs when someone guesses correctly.
Step 4: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING!
Step 5: ???
Step 6: PROFIT!!!.

(here are teh songs)

and this i ganked from *Rosaka-Chan a ...... while ago? Can't remember. XD

Rules:
1. Put your music player on shuffle.
2. Press forward for each question.
3. Use the song title as the answer to the question even if it doesn’t make sense. NO CHEATING!
4. Tag some people.
5. With the answers, give your own comments on how it relates to the questions.

(Dodonnn)

The first 30 seconds(meaning; you don't have to watch more than that) from this video seriously makes me go "...hiiii". Seriously, the way his arm and ankle goes back to place ............ But dayum, Berserk Armor is COOL. *shiny eyes*

But nao Lamppu goes to exercise. (3

there should be a proper mood emoticon for being in a flu/whatever. I would've used it now. D:

teh announcement

Journal Entry: Tue Feb 12, 2008, 4:04 AM
  • Mood: Bitter
  • Listening to: Susumu Hirasawa - WORLD CELL
  • Playing: FF8 (at least I'm planning to do so..)


YEESSSS. Here me out, please.

I've decided.

I'll be leaving deviantArt on 10th of April. My subscription ends then, so I decided that shall be the day. I have no intentions of coming back, but who'll ever know?

If anyone wants to be in touch with me after I leave, you can get in touch with me through IRC-Galleria, LiveJournal and my website, of course. I prefer the last one.

There's really not a good reason for me to leave. Few of the reasons are, that most of the people over here at dA makes me annoyed(for no reason, which is kinda bad. XD), dA itself makes me pissed off sometimes and I want to focus on my website more.

But I'll try my best to enjoy these last couple of months, ya? o/ I'll probably write to LJ about my trip to Lanzarote(the entry will be public) anyday now(prolly this week), so keep an eye on it. If you're interested, that is. :D

Tracon's this weekend. Who's coming? If ya feel like pokin' me, please do so. XD I'm not so hard to recognize, since I won't cosplay anyone. If yer not sure what I look like, check my IRC-Galleria(link's below).

mmyep.

// EDIT

Hey woah whut?

300 watchers. :Dand only a few of 'em are active,harhar. thanks, I guess! :heart: and 42,000 pageviews!

Arh, Lanzarote this saturday. Excited much? ... Not so much. XD Of course it's great to go there, but going there moneyless is kind of a bummer. Okay, I've got sum money. But not much. :B I'll take lots of pictures and ... try to draw some random sketches. :'D

After I get back, I have an announcement to make. I could say it now, but ... naaaah. XD

// END OF EDIT.

Decided to write a random journal over the commission one.
Yes, the never ending question; Fanart or Original. Which do you prefer?

I, myself, like to draw fanart. Not to BRING MOAR PEOPLE TO MAH GALLERY BLAHBALH, but it's because of my lack of imagination. I can't draw original characters that are interesting, 'cause i've got no imagination. Sure, i've tried, and i'd love to draw more original but.. it never turns out how i want T__T i'll keep trying with original, of course.

About that "not to bring more people to my gallery" .. sure, i want people to notice me and stuff(ATTENTIONWHORE?), but not because i draw fanart from some certain series. I want to be recognized because of my skills D: though wtf, i don't have any skills. My last drop of confident about my drawings got lost about 1½ year ago. But it makes me feel nice when people watch me or fav my works, 'cause it shows i'm not so bad after all .. Know what i mean? It gives me confidence! .. Am i total loser? :'DD

Which do you prefer to draw original or fanart? And which do you want to see from me? XD

So yeah, i decided to take commissions again 8D Link to the commission journal is below, and whenever you decide to commission, note me ~ ! I'll take commissions as long as i feel like, so you don't have to commission me right away :3

My sister made me download the World of Warcraft 10 days freetrial thing, and boy, is that game pretty! *__* i'm not addicted(YET), but man, the graphics and stuff are soooooo pretty. Makes me wanna buy the actual game, but i'm not so sure.. I heard you'll have to pay in every month or two to play it, I DUNNO! Someone who owns WoW please, tell me! Here's my character, i love her, and would love to continue playing with her ;__;

Some freaky guy's been posting links to porn sites to my oekaki board on my website, it's so annoying.. T__T *has to delete them all the time*

Umm, it's 2008 soon! \o/

:heart: :star: HAPPY 2008 EVERYONE!! :star: :heart:

here's a picture of christmas cookies i made XD *is planning to make more today 'cause those are already gone*

...... i need a new avatar. XD never mind that, i did one already o/
