UGH. PEOPLE ANNOY ME SO MUCH. SERIOUSLY. Not a huge amount gets me angry, but GODDAMN IT. SRSLY. What I'm specifically annoyed about is that someone has become a clone of a friend of mine, AND NOBODY ELSE SEES IT!! WTFFFFFFFFFFFFF?! Maybe I'm going mad. LOL. It wouldn't annoy me so much, but the person doesn't even TRY to hide the fact, and yet, they're loved for being a poor imitation of the original. UGHHHHH.

ANYWAY. Onto happier things... LOL. Like hogwarts_elite!! :D I managed to come second in the latest fan art contest!! Woo!! Go Hufflepuff!! :D


So, we had to draw a Harry Potter character in a "typically Muggle profession" ... so I chose MI6, LOLOLOL. WHAT?! IT'S MUGGLE! WIZARDS DON'T DO IT! XDDDDD

Not too happy with the face, but I like her body :D

AND. I made this icon for a Logo/HP crossover prompt:


LOLOL. Y'ALL KNEW IT WAS ME. DON'T DENY IT XDDDDDD

So, I was watching the seventh season of Will & Grace AND...

"Speaking of butts... I had another sex dream last night. This time I was in the shower with Barack Obama. Oh-bama... he was Bar-ocking my world." - Grace

OMFG I LOLED!!! What year is this from?! It's gotta be at least three or four now surely... WIN.

"And I finally got into the Harry Potter books! You know, I say I root for Gryffindor, but secretly, I love my Slytherin boys." - Karen

LOLOLOLOL XDDDDD

AND OMFG. MY MUM WROTE "OMG" IN AN E-MAIL!! OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOLOLOL. My mum is SOOOO slow with technology stuff, so her writing that is like, the most epic thing ever XDDDD

Oh, and I'm in Sydney now ^^; XDDDD Just thought I'd mention it. MY GOD IT'S HOT. DDDDDDDDDD:

Well, Team Tonks ended up coming second. :( AWW. WE WAS ROBBED, I TELL YOU!! LOL XDDDD To quote joannabanana23, "First is worst, second is best" LOLOL XDDDD

I have to admit I'm a little saddened. We lead all term, to lose at Hogsmeade because only four of our team participated. And that's what sucks! I KNOW that if just a couple more people had entered, we would have pwned - because we had such AWESOME people in our team!! :D

And I can't help but think it's probably my fault for not... I dunno... encouraging? Getting people involved? Whatever. OH WELL. It's all done now. Back to Hufflepuff :D I did enjoy the Team Leader thang, but it was SUPER HARD WORK, ZOMG. LOL XDDDD

ANYWAY. I did actually manage to place in things!! Woo!! :D Most of it is the stuff I've already posted...

TEAM BELLATRIX CONTEST #01 [DEATH EATER RADIO]:

LOL XDDDD I had NO IDEA wtf to write, so I just started and couldn't get out of the bumbling duo that was Bellatrix and Rodolphus XDDDD I swear I was going to actually have some of a srs show in there... but it just never happened, LOLOL.

TEAM BELLATRIX CONTEST #02 [ICON]:
01. First Place: DUDE!! I'm so happy with that! I never place in icons at Hogsmeade!! LOL XDDDD I DID like my icon though... I spent a lot of time trying to find the right crown. The one I ended up choosing was a Celtic on with what looked like two Rs back to back, and it was bronze, so I changed the colouring of it and VOILA! :D

TEAM LUCIUS CONTEST #02 [FAN ART]:
02. Second Place: Aww, yay!! Thank you!! Hillary's was awesome AND funny, so I had no chance of actually winning that one. LOLOL. DDR. HILRIOUS. :D

TEAM ALECTO CONTEST #01 [HP SECRETS]:
02. Second Place: Awwwwwww!! YAY!! My srs Draco piece placed!! :D LOL. I spend a while on that one actually, because my printer doesn't work ^^; So I spend AGES trying to make it look scanned, LOL XDDDD

All those are in this post.

TEAM NEVILLE CONTEST #01 [SORTING SONG]:
03. Third Place: LOL. OH WELL. I came last XDDDD Damnit, I liked my Sorting Hat song!! I worked in the word "anachronistic"!! I so deserve points for that - it's like five syllables IN RHYME!! XDDD

That is here

SO CHA. It starts tomorrow @ 1pm Australian Eastern Standard time, so I mightn't be around this weekend. If I am online, I should be on AIM (Rotae Lupin) or you can reach me on e-mail (rotae_lupin@hotmail.com) :D



LOLOL. Just a little animation I did of me flail!running. This is what I look like when a HP trailer or the like comes out, LOLOL XDDDDD Why yes, I am a silly person XDDDD

Not bad for my first 2D animation y/y? :D LOL. I made this animation today :3 I has a matching header too, LOLOL. AND ICON (which I shall use in flailworthy places). I doubt the header will stay, but I thought it'd be good to have up while Hogsmeade is going on :D

EEEEEE I'M SO PSYCHED. I CAN'T WAIT TO GET STARTED!!

GO TEAM TONKS. LET'S KICK SOME ARSE!!

BTW. Going to see Australia on Sunday morning with Racheal @ Gold Class!!! EEEEEEEE RECLINERS FTWWWWWWW. BAZ LURHMANN FTW. NICOLE KIDMAN FTW. HUGE JACKMAN FTW. CATHERINE MARTIN FTW. EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!! I'm SO PSYCHED.

Peace,
Rotae

I know, I'm failing at LJ right now, LOL. I have like a million comments to reply to and no time in which to do them!! D:

I'm driving up to my parent's place today (I'm already running late) and I'll be up there for the US election - though we're only having an hour of TV coverage!! D: I'm voting that someone gets their webcam and points it at their TV for me, LOLOL XDDD I dunno if I'm going to get pissed if Obama or McCain wins though... LOL. I suspect I'd be too angry if McCain won to get sloshed... XDDDD

In other news, I got a new sketchbook and I had that "blank page syndrome", LOL. I did an AWESOME Remus/Tonks picture in the end. But now I'm suffering it again, hahaha XDDDD I don't think it'll go away until I draw something super bad XDDDD

Telstra is fucking me around atm. I wanted to boost up my internet, so I rang them a few weeks ago after my usage dropped to dial-up coz I'd gone over 12GB ^^; and they said they'd up it. But it still hasn't happened. And my bill is now 10 days late. UGH. So I rang them and talked to two different people both of whom were about as useful as a chocolate teapot. The woman said that she'd make a note that I'd tried to get in contact with them about it if there were any fees or anything. Sigh. Why don't I trust them? LOL.

I WATCHED SEASON THREE OF SUPERNATURAL!! And now I'm on like episode 5 of season 4 :D YAY CAUGHT UP :D

And finally...

From The West Wing:

Vinick: You're not an unthinking Liberal. Are you?

Santos: I know you like to use that word, Liberal, as if it were a crime.

Vinick: I'm sorry I shouldn't have used that word, I know Democrats think Liberal is a bad word. So bad you had to change it, didn't you? What do you call yourselves now? Progressives? Is that it?

Santos: It's true. Republicans have tried to turn Liberal into a bad word. Well, Liberals ended slavery in this country.

Vinick: A Republican president ended slavery.

Santos: Yes, a Liberal Republican, Senator. What happened to them? They got run out of your Party. What did Liberals do that was so offensive to the Liberal Party? I'll tell you what they did. Liberals got women the right to vote. Liberals got African-Americans the right to vote. Liberals created social security and lifted millions of elderly people out of poverty. Liberals ended segregation. Liberals passed the Civil Rights Act, the Voting Rights Act, Liberals created Medicare. Liberals passed the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act.

What did Conservatives do? They opposed every single one of those things. Every one.

So when you try to hurl that label at my feet, Liberal, as if it were something to be ashamed of, something dirty, something to run away from, it won't work, Senator. Because I will pick up that label, and I will wear it as a badge of honour.

Anyone else get freaked out when you watch TWW and then see that guy in Dexter? LOLOLOL XDDDD

Peace,
Rotae

Just a forewarning, this post is going to be going tv/politics to Avatar/Hook to art to tv/politics to politics to politics/avatars to Britishness... LOL XDDD

I love Toby Zeigler. Just sayin', LOL. I've only ever seen some random episodes of season 6 and 7 of The West Wing, so I'm totally squeeing over seeing all this new stuff :D I SO DIDN'T KNOW THAT MAKO WAS IN AN EPISODE!! LOLOL. This Japanese guy starts talking and I'm all, "ZOMG SEND IN RUF-FI-OOOOOOOOOO!!" LOLOLOL XDDDD

OKAY. ONTO ART!! :D I was kinda, uhm, overwhelmed by the response to my last post ^^; LOL. It remind me of my Mum, she LOOOOVES my portraits, but doesn't particularly think my cartoons are anything special.

It's interesting. For me, portraits are really kinda boring ^^; LOL. I mean, it's just spatial awareness, basically. You're just copying something that you're looking at. I mean, I realise it takes some skill, but once you get your spatial awareness down, and your fear of shading goes, it's just... not very interesting? LOLOL XDDDD

I find the art by buttfacemakani and cambryn and reallycorking and glockgal etc, SO AMAZING, because they have their own STYLE. And it's THEIRS. And they OWN it. UGH. Those guys just make me SO JEALOUS, LOL, because they're just so CONFIDENT with it, and CAREFREE and able to just... SCRIBBLE and make amazing pieces of art!

Whereas for me, it's because of my portraits that I'm so... constrained! That I'm never confident in just being free with it. Ugh. I dunno. Maybe I should just do portraits and be done with it, LOLOL. XDDD ANYWAY. RANDOM THOUGHTS OVER. Time for some CRACK!ARRRRRRRRRRRT!!

Meet my hogwarts_elite contest entry (that won me 1st place! WOOO!! GO TEAM TONKS!!), in which we had to cross HP with a fairytale... CINDERHARRY!

I know. You're all absolutely TERRIFIED of Dudley and Vernon. It's okay. I know. My mind is a scary, scary place XDDDDD HAHAHAHA. LOL. I so need to rent out Cinderella 3. ANYWAY. Yeah. I think it's pretty self-explanatory XDDDDD I'm insane! There you go XD

"People need hope, but they trust fear." - Heroes.

Damnit, how appropriate is that in politics? LOL. I'm so proud that my country didn't bend to Howard's scare tactics in the last election.

Btw, it might be just me... but I wouldn't want my leader (or indeed second in command) to be a Joe Blow average kinda person.

I want my leader to be, quite honestly, FUCKING STUPENDOUS.

( Click for not so much a political rant as an 'I don't want to rant, rant', LOL )

AND NOW. Onto Obama icons, LOLOLOLOL XDDD I made these yesterday along with the one in this post *points* :D RAWWWWWRRRR!! Obama's security detail? Dinosaurs courtesy of Team Tonks, LOLOL XD Yes, it IS an actual photo, I didn't add the Tyrannosaurus-Rex into it XD All pictures are from the community, obama_daily!



I love that woman with the Obama symbol, LOL XDDD She's SOOOO CUTE <3 And dude, how hot is Obamabananarama?! I mean... smart, funny, politically centre/left? That's hot enough without him ACTUALLY being that hot too XDDDDD

Believe it or not, this post WAS going to be "I totally love Toby Zeigler" and leave it at that... ^^; LOL. DAMN YOU, WEST WING. You put IDEAS into my head!! LOLOL XDDDD

Okay. So, I'm currently watching a political drama and eating Jam Fancies while drinking English Breakfast tea from a charity mug designed by Ewan McGregor. I'm so British right now... LOLOL XDDD

Peace,
Rotae

So, I needed a new address book, and while walking around SUPER EXCITING Hobart (no, srsly, someone got stabbed to death in Target today, :| no, seriously 0.o) with comedychick, her husband and son, I found an AWESOME ONE. It looks like this:


IZ SO BRILL, Y/Y?! :D

SO. I want to fill it with your info so I can look like I know lots of people XDDDD Fill it out if you'd like! It's totally private, so only I can see it :D

Here's a good way to test if you're right or left brained btw :D

Yes, all the questions are relevant, LOLOL.

[Poll #1268983]

SO, as you may have been able to tell from my really subtle mention above there, I has a comedychick!! YAYYYYY!! :D They haven't frozen from the cold yet, either! YAY! :D LOL. Doyle is so cute omfg, srsly. We played peek-a-boo today and he became obsessed with my zipper bracelet (just like 6kittykat6!! LOLOL, BTW KATE, THEY'RE BACK AT DIVA!! You want me to get you one?) and the completely satisfying noise it makes when I jingle it about XDDD And Dom and Jeremy are delightful! Like you're all so shocked, LOLOL :D

I've been watching The West Wing again recently. Sigh. I heart it so much. The only problem is that it's not REAL, DAMNIT! LOLOL XDDD BUT. The upcoming US election is looking scarily like season 6 of TWW 0.o *cue spooky music* So I'm happy XD DAMN YOU, ALAN ALDA!! XDDDDD

Btw, Team Tonks? PWNING in the voting OH YEAH. DINOSAURS AND TONKS: DEAD, BUT STILL FUCKING AWESOME :D XDDDDD *high fives team* WOOOOO!!! *tackles*

Peace,
Rotae

SOOOO, first of all, I have to say HI to all the wonderful people on Team Tonks who I friended recently! HAI!! :D *huggles*

Second on the agenda is the initial stages of a background for my HP-Art-Project thingy:


Clickie for bigger piccie! :D
Eeee!! ALMOST DONE!! :D SO. I just have fix the light and go over it with a fine toothed comb and get all the little things I've been putting off, LOL XD BUT! ALMOST DONE!!

Third, I have to apologise for not replying to stuff in my last entry because I'm lame and haven't gotten to it yet ^^;

Fourth, YES, I've seen the new HBP pictures!!! ZOMGGGGGGGGG. TOM. TYRA WOULD BE SO IMPRESSED WITH YOUR EMOTION IN THIS PICTURE OH YES.

( Click for picture! )

I- just- I... GAH. HOW CAN YOU TELL A STORY WITH JUST YOUR EYES LIKE THAT?! SRSLY. I WANNA KNOW. LOLOL XDDD ;alkdsj;aldjsf;laksdf;lakjds;la :D ALSO. I never thought we'd get to see him out of that bloody turtleneck, so YAY NECK :3 AND VEST ZOMG :D

OH. And I also totally love that Tom has grey eyes in this picture btw. And that he has grey eyes in general. They have the ability to look blue or green or grey depending on what the person is wearing/colours around them. I mean, not only does he have eyes like canon!Draco, but they're just so AWESOME :D And really special for people like me who have boring blue XDDD

And, speaking of Tom, that leads me to fifth and final! It's just gone midnight here in the AEST so I can confidently say Happy Birthday to two wonderful people, cambryn and Tom Felton!! Yay!! Dawwww, they're all grown up :3 :D Hee. Tom is 21, Hill is 23, two AWESOME numbers :D 21 = my age, 23 = the best number EVAH. So happy birthday from the Australian Eastern time zone!! *flings streamers* LOLOL :D

I WAS going to do a portrait of Tom for his birthday, because a) I've draw a Tom as Draco portrait for GoF and OotP, so it seems natural that I should do one for HBP, and b) I felt like it. But unfortunately I went to do it today and couldn't find ANY of my pencils!! D: I dunno wtf I've done with them, LOL. So it'll have to wait. :(

Okay, so I lied, there's a sixth. I could totally live on toast. Just saying.

Peace,
Rotae

There's a review online for the test screening of HBP they showed in Chicago:

"Tom Felton did a fantastic job in this film. Draco character remains true to the book, he even stamps on Harry’s nose. But, sadly, we never get the pleasure of seeing Crabb [sic] and Goyle disguised as girls. In fact, they are hardly in this movie. The Sectumsempra scene was really good, even without moaning Myrtle. As Harry and Draco throw spells at each other poor Nigel sits frozen on one of the toilets. Snape runs in shortly and McGonagall is in the doorway after Harry cast the spell (Draco never yells Crucio) and he does do a cure his wounds with a spell that sounds almost like song. But he does not use legilimency on Harry, who runs straight out of the bathroom to McGonagall."

Hmm. I'm mixed about this. I mean, YES SCORE YAY re: stomping and stuff, but wtf is Nigel doing in there??!!!??! UGH. It's totally official. I HATE NIGEL. I hope he dies instead of Colin. And apparently Tonks and Lupin come to the rescue at The Burrow, but that is IT for the ENTIRE MOVIE. UGH. SO LAME, WB.

But yay!! :D ZOMG DRACO IN THE MOVIE S:LDFJ:LSKDJSF:LDKJSFJK. OH. And, "Tom Felton did a fantastic job in this film" - DUH. LOLOLOLOL XDDDD BUT YAY!! I hope he gets some recognition :D

UGH. WB, I hate you so much right now.

OH. And LOL, Y SO SULLEN, EDWARD CULLEN DANRAD? XDDD


Peace,
Rotae

OKAY. So my team over at hogwarts_elite has been announced and... DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNN... I'm the leader of TEAM TONKS!! WOOOOO!! You guys are all super surprised. I can totally tell. LOLOL. SO. As a bit of fun tonight (while watching Midsomer Murders and Ugly Betty - LOL, different much? XDDD), I drew the following, very quickly (click for bigger pic):


YAYYYYY!! I thought that the announcement warranted a bad-arse Tonks picture! And this is what I came up with (very quickly, LOL). It's okay. Still not happy with her head, but eh, what can you do?

ALSO. I made the icon up there and this signature:

Members of my team are very welcome to take the icon and signature if they'd like to use them :D

AHHH!! Wearing those shoes is gonna be that much more awesome, because I know what they'll mean, LOLOL XDDDD Although, admittedly, Tonks would never be able to actually wear them, because hello, falling over much? (I reckon she just falls over because she's distracted by Remus, BUT WHATEVS XDDDD)

SO CHA. OH. And I made this too:

I feel that it adequately sums up my feelings XDDDD

EDIT: OH. AND. LOL. I TOTALLY WANT THIS T-SHIRT WITH EVERY FIBRE OF MY BEING :3


RIGHT. Bed now. Parents are back tomorrow!! YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!! :D

Peace,
Rotae

FROM JKR.COM!! The Tales of Beedle the Bard to be released in December!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Children's High Level Group to publish "The Tales of Beedle the Bard" on 4th December 2008

There was understandable disappointment among Harry Potter fans when only one copy of "The Tales of Beedle the Bard" was offered to the public last December. I am therefore delighted to announce that, thanks to the generous support of Bloomsbury, Scholastic and Amazon (who bought the handwritten copy at auction) - and with the blessing of the wonderful people who own the other six original books - "The Tales of Beedle the Bard" will now be widely available to all Harry Potter fans. Royalties will be donated to the Children's High Level Group, to benefit institutionalised children in desperate need of a voice. The new edition will include the Tales themselves, translated from the original runes by Hermione Granger, and with illustrations by me, but also notes by Professor Albus Dumbledore, which appear by generous permission of the Hogwarts Headmasters' Archive.' 'Dumbledore's commentary on the Tales, which was discovered among his papers after his death, includes some historical notes, personal reminiscences, and insights into that most mysterious branch of magic: wandlore. I very much hope that readers coming to these classic wizarding fables for the first time will find his commentary both entertaining and helpful.

YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!! :D So psyched about the wandlore. That shit is EENTERESTEENG!!

Happy birthday JKR and Harry btw ;) :D

I'm getting up to date tomorrow! Yay! My parents are going away on holiday for a month :( Boo. So I'm looking after the Bed & Breakfast while they're away, and they leave tomorrow :( So I should catch up on everything once they're gone :D *huggles*

Oh, and the peeps at hogwarts_elite think me to be like; Tonks, Arthur (AWESOME :D) Andromeda, Pigwidgeon and Charlie Weasley. And, you know, I'd never really thought about Charlie before in relation to me, but Kat is right. I'm totally like him. Off in my own little world, obsessed with "dragons". LOLOL I'm such a nerd. But yeah, I actually REALLY identify with him 0.o Weird! Cept I have a better mother than him OH NO SHE DEEHENT LOLOL XDDD

Peace,
Rotae

EDIT: I've just been told that JKR said that Tonks's original Patronus was a ferret... 0.o Anyone heard this/got the exact quote/link whatever?

Oh gosh, it's that time again. The hogwarts_elite Character Meme time. RUN FOR THA HILLS ALL YEE WHO FEAR DEATH... AND CUSTARD!!

So far I've been nominated for:
Pigwidgedon... >.> LOL
Stan Shunpike... SRSLY MIKE WTFBBQ?! XDDDD
And... Nymphadora Tonks YAYYYYYY!! *defends title with shiny sword that she TOTALLY didn't steal from the Goblins Gryffindors* >.> XD

Thank you so much for all the votes guys <3 Yes, even the Stan one. >.> Maybe. Although that does seem like something I'd do, right? Brag that I'm a Death Eater? XDDDD

But you know the absolute best part of the whole thing? With the nom for Tonks... I love how everyone who seconded or whatever said things like, "Obviously" and "Of course!" and "Naturally" XDDDDD That is SO EFFING AWESOME thank you so much <3 I just love that you guys think it's a no brainer. It makes me lol :D

Also, I'm going to recommend that you vote liret for Remus, buttfacemakani for Andromeda and vaguelyclear for Ted Tonks. Because liret is my Remus, buttfacemakani should be my Mum as well as my Aunt (I mean, neither of them like Remus, LMFAO XDDD) and I'll love to have vaguelyclear as my Dad, especially so I don't have to put up with talumin going, "WHO'S YOUR DADDY" to me for the next six months LMFAO XDDDD <3

Ahhhh... hogwarts_elite is love. :D No, seriously, you guys rule.

Drawing block seems to be unblocked btw!! YAY!! Drawing Scorpius atm. Although I'm too tired to do too much :( I actually had a nap after work ^^;

"I would settle for something shaped like a fish."
"Then go to a fish monger!"
"I'm a vegetarian..."

HEHEHEEEHEHE :D I SAW RUN, FATBOY, RUN AND IT WAS GOOD. :D

OH. And the results from my poll are in!! And I am overwhelmingly an...

HUFFLEIN
YAYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!

And all of those who said Gryffindor in any way... you are going on THE LIST. OH YES. YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS. YES... YOU KNOW. YOU SHALL BE THE FIRST. XD

I find it seriously interesting that there are two of you who think I'm a Gryffindor, three who think I'm a Ravenclaw and two who think I'm a Slytherin 0.o Ravenclaw? 0.o LMAO. I R SMRT XDDDD

And I had a total FOUR VOTES for a Ravenclaw/Slytherin combination 0.o I find that so weird, haha :D Would you guys (inksplotched, drcjsnider, nutsundae and hagiographer13) mind telling me why you think that? I'd be really interested in knowing :D

Thank you to everyone who voted :D

Peace,
Rotae

I so needed this icon. I'm very glad I made it. XDDDDD

I'm currently working on Scorpius/Rose art. YAY!! Among ten billion other things, LOL. I have a few things to reply to but it's like four in the morning and I'm going to write this blog and then head to bed.

First off; Luna would totally call her kid Xena. It's the perfect cross between Xenophilius and Luna... plus, like... Xena?!?! Hello?!?!! LOL.

I've been told I look like Victoire, Tonks, Susan Bones, Lavender Brown, Hannah Abbott, Millicent Bulstrode and Remus and Tonks' second child over at H_E. I have come to the conclusion that they have no idea who I look like. LMFAO. Most of the votes were for Victoire or Tonks though. Life is so hard. I either end up with Teddy or Remus. Damn. *sigh* LOL. And mybabyangel said something to me that kinda freaked me out/excited me so much. Teddy/Me/Remus. Oh yes. It's Lupincest (but like... not with them together... with ME. This is MOST important). It's "I Can't Believe it's Not Lupincest" XDDDDDDDDDDDD LOL. I can drawz pr0nz? HAHAHAHA. *dies giggling*

I'm also going away for the weekend down to Peppermint Bay with my family for my Aunt's 50th birthday. So I'll be incommunicado between Saturday and Monday probably. I mean, YAY PEPPERMINT BAY/FAMILY!! But BOO NO INTERNETZ. LOL. LOTS of drawing time :3

And speaking of family and life I just wanted to get the following off my chest as something for me to look back on in a few years and see if I've changed;

Do you know what? I am so thankful for my life. Seriously. I am so lucky to have all that I have. I have an amazing family, I have very good health (I've never had a headache and generally get a cold once a year, if that), I have hundreds of WONDERFUL friends both IRL and on the internet, I enjoy my Uni work, I really love my obsessions and find joy in them everyday, I'm well off financially, I have hobbies that totally rock... and I just love my life.

And do you know what? I like me. LOL. I know that sounds strange... but I don't feel I need another person to complete me... and I never have. If I never get married or find someone I want to be romantically attached to the rest of my life... I'm actually really okay with that. I like my own company, and can be by myself for days and not really be phased by it.

My parents have been married for almost 35 years (they were married when they were 21 and 20, which is the age I am now)... but I don't mind if I never find someone to be with like that. I mean, sure, if it happens then YAY! But... I won't feel my life has been lessened if I don't. And I don't mind that it happens at the age of 76 if that's when it happens.

As for kids? I have to say that I personally don't wanna give birth. LOL. Maybe I'll feel differently later on, but at this point in time... OW. Seriously! LOL. And I'd love a kid I adopted, or my partner's kid, just as much as I would one who carried my DNA. There are so many children already out there who could use a good home. That's right. I'm going all Angelina on your arse. LOL. Oh, and also, if I want a kid at the age of 38, and I don't have a partner... then I'll adopt one myself. I feel it's something I could definitely do on my own.

[EDIT: I just randomly woke up and feel I forgot this. And, if I fall in love with a woman, btw, I'd be okay with that too. I can't say women are my taste at this point in my life, but if I fell in love with a woman, I wouldn't feel uncomfortable/shocked/horrified/have a problem with it. I believe that love crosses all kinds of boundaries, which just become unimportant in the face of its power.]

I don't think I could honestly, at this point in time, write a blog entry that is down. Unless someone I'm really close to dies... I'm generally okay with whatever life flings at me (not that it's flung much ever, really). And I am so thankful for it. I'm so happy with my life, I feel kinda bad about it. LOL. XDDDD I wish I could share the happiness sometimes, ya know? Make my world a little less good and fling some happiness someone else's way who really needs it.

I have a family whom I love to absolute bits (my parents are THE MOST wonderful people I know), and friends likewise... I have good health, no huge troubles in my life (apart from trying to keep my pot plant (Ian Zacharius) alive, which is a CONSTANT struggle, LOL), and I'm totally optimistic about where my life is heading.

I'm strong, opinionated, argumentative, obsessive, enthusiastic, slightly insane, hyperactive, intelligent, fuzzy, artistic, musical, stubborn, accepting, a Jedi, chocoholic, spaz, loving and I am happy.

This is me. Watch me soar. :D

...

So that would be a good place to end it, all dramatic and statementy-like... but OMG I'M UP TO THE PART WHERE WARREN SHOOTS BUFFY AND TARA AND OMG *flails* I LOVE SEASON SIX SO MUCH!!! AHHHHHH!!! *creates buffy tag* I need Jossverse icons.

Is it a coincidence that Book 6 of HP and Season 6 of Buffy are my favourites, and Book 3 and Season 3 are my second favourites? I THINK NOT. XDDDD This is the "spaz", "obsessive", "hyperactive", "enthusiastic" and "slightly insane" traits working atm. LMFAO

Love you guys. *huggles*

Peace,
Rotae

Ah man... I started drawing this on Friday and just had to finish it (despite the extremely long queue of things to be finished, lol).

After reading DH, I came to a shocking conclusion; I no longer want Pansy and Draco to be married in canon. :O I know. OMG, right? I'm just as shocked as you are. I'll try and explain...

Basically, in canon, I don't think that Pansy would ever truly be able to understand Draco anymore... why he did the things he did, and why he thinks the way that he does. I still ship them before DH though. I reckon she tried really hard to understand, but I don't think she ever could.

What I want Draco to do after DH is basically travel the world for a while. Really have a chance to recover, and reassess things. I want him to meet "his wife" in Greece. I know. It's so random. But I can just image in it in fan fiction form, LOL. She's not actually Greek (though her grandfather was). She's there on holiday with some friends, and they meet after a while.

I really wanted a character who he could start afresh with, ya know? Someone who he could, over time, really open up to, and someone who understood him, and accepted and loved him.

I imagine that she was at least six or seven years ahead of Draco at Hogwarts (and was a Hufflepuff, ooooooh the IRONY, LOL), but wasn't in England during the time of the war (she and her parents went abroad a few years previous to the uprising).

Since I'm a Rosie/Scorpius shipper (that is TOTALLY canon btw, LOL), I'll say that I reckon she'd get on really well with Hermione (much to the distaste of their husbands, LOL). And I reckon she'd get on REALLY well with Narcissa. :3 I want her to be just a super nice person :D

And despite knowing all about her... I have no idea what to name her. I'm thinking something Greekish... maybe Greek mythologyish... or Charlotte. LMFAO. TOTALLY a Greek name is Charlotte. XDDD I think that's just because she reminds me of Charlotte from Sex in the City though, LOL. SUGGESTIONS ARE WELCOME.

ANYWAY. About the actual PICTURE. LOL. Oh... I should mention that this is Mrs. Draco Malfoy, Scorpius Malfoy and Draco Malfoy... though I guess you could probably tell that after my ramble, right? And, like... the title... ^^; haha.

Draco is wearing an Appleby Arrows Quidditch jumper. amberpalette asked what I thought Draco might do for a living after the war, and my knee jerk reaction was "be like Paris Hilton" a.k.a nothing, but be rich. LOL. But I had a think about it, and I'd kinda like to see Draco play Quidditch when he returns to England (after meeting and forming a relationship with the, as previously mentioned, unnamed Mrs Draco Malfoy, lol). I mean, he IS a good Quidditch player... he only ever lost to Harry so far as we're told, and Harry could DEFINITELY have played for England, let alone just A Quidditch Club. And it just must have been SO HARD for Draco to give it up in HBP, that I think he deserves to do something he actually really enjoys. :) Oh, and I think he should be a Chaser.

I have no idea what Scorpius is pointing at, LOL. I imagine him to be the happiest child you've ever met. :D Just coz. And I love his little outfit. Awwwww... *pinches cheek*

And I am in love with Mrs Malfoy's coat. Oh yes. I wants it. It's based on one from a 1957 Harper's Bazaar magazine. Yes, I know, I'm a fashion freak. :D

So... all of this came about because buttfacemakani and I had a devastatingly long Skype chat just basically about the Malfoys, and where we saw them going and what we thought of them in DH and stuff. I made Mrs Malfoy's hair dark brown/black because she was adamant that Scorpius should have black hair until she realised he was meant to be the spit of Draco, LOL, and we spent a very long time debating about her hair colour of all things, LOL.

We also have cooked up a daughter for them because Lucius's reaction to a girl would be HILLARIOUS. LOL. XDDDD Something along the lines of "What is it?" I think... haha!! But I don't think I'll ever draw them with a daughter (unless I decide to draw the Lucius comic I came up with to go with it...).

Oh, and Heather said that she thought Draco's hair loss may have been more to do with the war more than anything... and it'd be hot, like Jude Law's hair loss. Yes. I do actually have a quote with her saying Draco would be hot. I know. The sky has fallen.

And wow... this is REALLY freaking long. If you got through that, you get a cookie, and a Malfoy of your choice.

This is dedicated to amberpalette, buttfacemakani and chen_san, mah Malfoy sisters. <3

Also, Tonks having a Willow wand made from the Whomping Willow is TOTALLY my new canon for her thanks for the wonderful fernwithy's fan fiction.

AND. I got the ENTIRE seasons 1-7 of Buffy. OH YES. I'm currently up to disk three of season one. Eeeeeeee!! BUFFY LOVE!!!

Peace,
Rotae

Rotae paints her face half blue and half white.
She runs up to the top of a not so big hill...
And yells at the top of her lungs:

SPOILER AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAART!! THIS JOURNAL IS NOW COMPLETELY SPOILED. YOU'VE BEEN WARNED!!


FULL CLICK IT. YOU KNOW YOU WANNA
OH YES. :D Teddy and Victoire next, I think :) And ICONS!! YAY!!

I raided my parents photos while I was at home, so now I have lots of baby pictures for references. :D LOL. And I found one of me devouring an apple with my Mum at the age of about 6 months... >.> LOL. APPLES FTW.

Peace,
Rotae

Soooooooo... as usual, art comes first in the post! YAY.


This is some giftart for buttfacemakani I was talking to her on Skype about something else I'm doing for a few people's birthdays next month (heehehehehehe), and I mentioned that I WAS going to do this, but decided on something else, and she got really excited about THIS. LOL. So I decided to draw it anyway.

We've discussed in depth what we both think Bella looks like, and are in complete agreement. :D So, I drew her Bella (pre Azkaban, obviously), in a semi-realistic style based on Courtney Cox-Arquette. LMFAO. XDDDD

So, this is an early birthday present for her! I think I'm going to continue this. I actually enjoyed it a lot :D

I used an extremely bastardised version of the awesome *toerning's tutorial. Which can be found here


Done for a contest over at hogwarts_elite. We had to draw a character with their canon patronus (or if we didn't know it, decide which one they would have). :D I didn't place, but I like it very much :XD:

I decided to draw Tonks' patronus before it changed. I was originally going to have butterflies, but some meta by mrstater made me change my mind. Check it out on her LJ here

I've also made a meme!!

List 5 things you'd like to happen in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, and you think probably WILL happen, list 5 things you'd like to happen, but probably WON'T, and 5 things you'd like to happen, but DEFINITELY won't.

Things I want to happen in HPDH (and probably will):

1. Remus, Tonks and Draco to all live. DAMNIT, THEY'RE ALL GONNA. LOL
2. I'd like Draco to be described as "tall" again. YAY SYMBOLISM!!
3. MORE WEREWOLF STUFF. FO SHIZZLE. COZ THAT WOULD PWN.
4. Lucius and Narcissa to die. Hehehehehehe. Yes. They will. I AM TEH EBIL KILLER. :FFF
5. JKR to use the word "podge". This is PROBABLY going to happen because she is OBVIOUSLY reading my LJ. Srsly. XDDDD

Things I want to happen in HPDH (but probably won't):

1. Someone (I don't care who) to be posessed by a Hogwarts Founder.
2. Remus to read Draco's mind with Legilimancy*.
3. In the final battle, I want them all to be fighting and Lucius and Draco to end up face to face with each other and neither of them to be able to move.
4. I want Peter to save Harry. And I don't mean, "help him out", I mean, SAVE him. Or, die for him or whatever.
5. I'd really like for Remus and Tonks NOT to get married. For some reason, them getting married (within the HP series timeline) REALLY bugs me. 0.o I'm strange, STFU. hehe However, if it's like, an Epilogue, that'd be okay.

Things I want to happen in HPDH (but DEFINITELY won't):

1. I want there to be a spell, which makes the person burst into song and explain why they're not evil (see Draco and Snape duet), because DAMNIT I WANNA HEAR TOM SING. LMFAO. XDDD
2. *And to further the above, I want Remus to place his hands on the table facing up, and Draco to put his on top, facing down and for them to look like they're having the ultimate staring contest. CAN YOU IMAGINE THE MOVIE?! THEWLIS/FELTON!HANDPORN ZOMGGGGGGGG!!! XDDDDD LOL.
3. I'd like to visit Malfoy Manor. I've put this under definitely, because JKR said that she'd tried to put the Theo and Draco scene in to show off Draco's house twice and had been unsuccessful. So, I don't think we're going to get to see it. I'd like to though.
4. The cover of the UK Children's Edition... I'd like that to be in Hogwarts. Just so it's not in the obvious Gringotts. LOL.
5. I'd actually really like for Bellatrix to kill herself. I know that sounds kinda strange... given that both Neville and Tonks would definitely LIKE to kill her... but I'd like Voldemort to be defeated and for her to go (even more) mental and kill herself. >.> I'VE ALREADY SAID I'M STRANGE. STFU. LOL.

Pass it on! I wanna see what you'd like to happen!

<b>List 5 things you'd like to happen in <u>Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows</u>, and you think probably WILL happen, list 5 things you'd like to happen, but probably WON'T, and 5 things you'd like to happen, but DEFINITELY won't.</b> <b>Things I want to happen in HPDH (and probably will):</b> <ul><b>1.</b> <b>2.</b> <b>3.</b> <b>4.</b> <b>5.</b> </ul> <b>Things I want to happen in HPDH (but probably won't):</b> <ul><b>1.</b> <b>2.</b> <b>3.</b> <b>4.</b> <b>5.</b> </ul> <b>Things I want to happen in HPDH (but DEFINITELY won't):</b> <ul><b>1.</b> <b>2.</b> <b>3.</b> <b>4.</b> <b>5.</b> </ul>

Saw PotC... what... four days ago now? Loved it. :D Hence, the icon :D Heeeee... I'll talk about it more after I see it again and it's fresh in my mind. :D

And... crap. I just realised I need to reply to stuff in my last post... LOL. *I lose* Cept I'm going to bed now coz it's almost 5am... ^^; LOL. My sleep is so fucked atm. D: LOL.

Peace,

"Warner Bros. has confirmed that the strong-rumored Imelda Staunton will play Dolores Umbridge in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Newsround reports; meanwhile Luna Lovegood will be played by Evanna Lynch, who was found in the open call in London, and Bellatrix Lestrange will be played by Helen McCrory, also previously rumored to be in casting talks."

Helen McCrory is a brilliant choice, she was amazing in Charles II! I couldn't be happier! And Imedla Staunton was amazing in Vera Drake, and they both completely look the part too!

My initial reaction was this: OMFG, HELEN MCRORY IS THE BEST CHOICE EVA, LIKE OMGWTF, THE HP CASTING PEOPLE CAN ACTUALLY CAST GOOD ACTORS?! WTF? I THOUGHT THEY WERE STICKING WITH PEOPLE LIKE RUPERT GRINT IN 1-3!! SHE WAS SO GOOD IN CHARLES II!! SHE FUCKING MADE THAT SERIES... SHE IS GOING TO BE THE BEST BELLATRIX EVER!!!!!!!!! AND IMELDA STAUNTON WAS SOOOOO FUCKING AMAZING IN VERA DRAKE!!!!! *OMG... DIES*

But I'm a bit calmer now! lol.

EDIT: Here's a picture of Luna:


And Tonks has also been cast!!! Natalia Tena.


Peace,
Rotae
