New Eyecandy (Update 5/?)

[Cougati]

No, it's ok.

I just laugh about it really. Even though I've missed you. We need to AIM or something, I'm sure it's easier. XD

Yes! I'll see you then!

[glimpse]

Hey Cougy! How are you?

The movie was SO WEIRD. D:< Me and my friend saw "Drag Me to Hell" and it wasn't really what I was expecting. It was...actually more gross than scary. She kept getting random things stuffed into her mouth. Like worms, mud, and embalming fluid. The ending was worth it, though.

The funny thing is, I ACTUALLY DO HAVE AIM! I just stopped using it! But now that it's summer [soon at least] I'll have more time to log in. YAY~

& I'm curious - how did you think of your username? I haven't seen a character of yours named Cougati yet, and it's a really interesting name/word! :O

[Cougati]

Ooooh. I thought that would be an interesting one to see, from blockbuster. I wouldn't pay to see it, I don't think.

Yay! Well, when you get back on, ping me or something. I'm almost always on/around my computer, so I'll notice if you do.

Well...there's a progression here.

But basically, Cougar + Tigger, which is my nickname that my grandparents have been calling me since before they even knew my name.

I was going to spell it like Cougat, but I wanted people to know that the T is actually Tee. So.

But your right, I don't have a character named Cougati. It's just me. Or Coug....

My first username though, (Waddles-Tang) was named after two of my characters.

If you want to see something funny, you should go through my gallery here:

http://fanart.lionking.org/Artists/Waddles_Tang/

Just make sure you wear eye protection. So tremendously old. It's from like, five years ago.

[glimpse]

Oh man, I've always wanted to have a gallery of my work somewhere and, you know, actually keep it around. D8

Every site/storage thing that I've had with old pictures, I usually get rid of it just because it's weird for me to see my old arts. I've been thinking about making a board here for all the art pieces I do that I actually like. I think I'll call it an art dump, since I'm essentially DUMPING my art there for later. (:

&OHMAN LION KING. THOSE MOVIES MADE ME CRY SO BADLY. D::

I've had a lot of nicknames too actually and I have no clue why I didn't incorporate them into my username. >> But they all have bizarre background stories that are really weird to explain, so I guess it's for the best!

How've you been Coug? I don't think I've seen you on lately. then again I'm really bad at getting online at appropriate times so that would explain that D:::

[Cougati]

I haven't been on because I haven't seen you, and I've been busy with graduation stuff.

I officially a freshman again. whoooo!

And I just got a job for college, too, so I'm all set for fall!

So excited.

An art dump thread would be good. I don't like to let people see my old art really, unless I know that they'll just laugh at it and get a kick out of it like I do. XD.

[glimpse]

YAYY~

Today was my last day of school. If I think about it too much, it really gets me all mopey. I'm going to miss those guys so much. D:

But I still can't wait until Saturday [the graduation ceremony] IT'S GOING TO BE GREAT

I think I'll make an art dump thread this summer/eventually. I just have to think of a CLEVER TITLE for it. x)

[Cougati]

You're graduating too! Congrats!

I graduated on Tuesday, so yesssssssssssssssssss.

Anyway.

I'm sure you'll come up with something good.

Btw, hows your harkitein coming along?

[glimpse]

Tricky! I'm trying to actually give him a backstory [since my characters rarely have backstories] and it's kinda difficult, but fun. (:

AH MY GRADUATION WAS SO. SAD. But I'm glad to be going on to college, so it's all good. I just have to get used to the idea that's all. x) My entire family showed up and we had a little celebration, it was awesome

You graduated on Tuesday? LUCKY! How did yours go?

[Cougati]

It went fine, It was pretty speedy. Lots of people came to see me, but finding them afterwords was hard. And one of the teachers I wanted to see went home before I could find her....aw man....

oh well. I'm so excited though. I was getting really sick of high school, mostly because of the people in it.

Awesome!

Well, here's some info on them, just so you know.

Harkitein are undead, the body being used has to have died no more than 24 hours ago. (This wasn't a problem, as they were created as weapons to fight in a certain war, there were tons of bodies to use.) The way they are turned into Harkitein...you cut the heart out an replace it with a magically charged stone, which was supposed to allow the creator to control them, but they all ended up developing personalities of their own. The don't last long, as I've said, generally the stronger their will power is, the longer they can live.

They were created to destroy Drezhein (Ithea's kind) so they have abilities to rival theirs, mainly amazing speed, strength, and magic. Having no hearts of their own, that's what they feed off of. Most Harkitein are more than a little sadistic, and don't bother with rules or customs. Also, Iron is like, the Anti-Christ to them. It burns them on contact...and that sort of thing.

I think that's everything...

[glimpse]

It was the same way with some of my teachers! Some of them couldn't even make it to the graduation ceremony. But while I was walking off stage I saw a teacher who promised to give me a hug and we hugged. It was sweet in a "I'll never see you again" kind of way.

I'm really excited for college, even if I'm not going to a university straight off the bat. I can't wait for the challenge, you know? Plus, I'm happy that I'll have a little more control over the classes I take [since I'm actually paying for them now]

So the Drezhein and the Harkitein are mortal enemies then? Wow! And I've got to remember that thing about the Iron before I stick him in a suit of full body armor.

How've you been, Cougy? I still have the nasty habit of replying DAYS later than I meant to. ; ;

[Cougati]

Yeah! ahaha. I can't wait either. I'm so glad to be moving on. I out grew highschool, I think. XD I get to go down early, because I have a job at the school too, so...YAY.

Where are you going?

Lucky, I've been paying for my school for years. High school isn't cheap. This last year was like, five hundred dollars or something. *cries*

They are. Which was why everyone pretty much goes crazy over Anthem and Ithea gets mad at them. He's part of the reason she's estranged from her entire family, on that side. Except her dad has like, weird/mixed feelings about her and never actually punishes her for anything. Yeah. Well, armor can be made out of other things. Anthem actually has Iron scars. Most are on his hands. Bad luck with door knobs and such.

The Drezhein, on the other hand, react even worse to silver. The way Ithea kills her brother is by poisoning him with silver nitrate. Drezhein have a lot of weaknesses. It doesn't seem fair to me to have a race that godmods just by being born. ahaha.....

I've been ok. There's been a lot of drama with one of my IRL friends having to be in the hospital and all sort of other things...but she's fine now. So.... I'm fine. XD

How have you been?

[glimpse]

Hey Cougy

You have a job at the school? Luckyyy~ I'm going to a Jr. College my first two years, and then to a Uni [University of Houston]. At first I was going to go to Stephen F. Austin, but I didn't like the campus AT ALL when I visited. Not appealing.

FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS FOR HIGH SCHOOL? NOT COOL. D:

& Poor Anthem and those iron doorknobs. But if you think about it, it actually seems like a hilarious situation! "Oh let me get that door for you--ACK AN IRON DOORKNOB!" xD My guys going to wear gloves 24/7

I'm glad your friend is better now! I've personally spent a lot of time in and out of hospitals, and they're not really the funnest place to be! I've been alright, trying to do some new things with my art -- and failing at it x) I'm really excited because my friends fiance is coming down this Saturday so they can meet face to face for the first time. It's crazy. She's throwing this huge party with all her friends to celebrate.

[Cougati]

Whoa. She's never met her fiance? That just seems like a bad idea...but...yay?

Yeah! I'm going to Indiana University, and I have a job in one of the food courts. 7.50 an hour, and really flexible. hm.

Aw, that sucks. I've never had to stay in a hospital. I had to go to one once, when I has bleeding profusely from a head wound, but it turns out that it was actually really tiny. They didn't even have to give me stitches, so they sent me home.

Yes. Although...Anthem being the MAN he is, and trying to act like a gentleman, he would probably try not to react to it.

Actually...some of them came from getting Ithea out of the barred room she was kept in at Lasifaar's house. But, a fair number of them are probably from doorknobs...yes.

[glimpse]

He landed! He met her mom and they hit it off great!

But I know what you mean, it seemed like a terrible idea to me when she first told me about him - they met on Neopets, I think. :\ But they've been talking for two years and on the phone almost as long. They really seem like they're smitten so I'm trying to look at it in a positive light.

7.50 an hour? Sounds like good pay, I just hope they don't work you too hard! Maybe you can even get free food xD

A head wound? AWFUL. Luckily, I've never had to get stitches either; the idea of getting sewn up freaks me out pretty badly! But then again, so do doctors.

Do you know what you'll be studying yet? Or are you an undecided major?

[Cougati]

Yeah, I guess that's the best option. I mean, it's not your life, it's theirs, so if they want to try....

I get a free meal for every shift I work.

ahaha....yeah. stitches would be freaky!

I'm majoring in psychology and minoring in art and Italian.

My classes for this semester are Intro to Psychology, Introductory Italian, Mafia and other Italian Mysteries, Introduction to Finite Math, and Fairy Tales in the American Culture.

Fun stuff!

I'm way looking forward to that mafia class though. How cool is that!
