There was a blackout last night that prevented me from getting any work done on NaNo, and also on the paper that was due today. Luckily, due to said blackout not only affecting the whole campus but even the town as a whole well into this morning, class was canceled and I am able to finish said paper today. However, there is also a project due tomorrow, so now I need to work on two projects, further delaying any progress with NaNo.

Considering I've more or less completely run out of ideas with where I'm going with NaNo, I'm mostly glad for the excuse not to stare at the word count and try to will it up another few thousand words. Good lord is this month over yet.

Day 23: Pokemon -Favorite Evil organization?

I always thought that Aqua and Magma had pretty dumb plans, and I never even finished Pearl so I don't really care for Galactic much at all. Besides, even if Rockets were just 'evil for the sake of evil' which is always pretty dumb, the fact that they were around for two whole generations makes a much better impression in my mind.

Current Mood: working

So on Satuday I have a flight back home for Thanksbreak. As it turns out, my friend has a flight on that same day, but six hours before mine. Which means I get to hang around the airport for six hours because like hell am I shelling out fifty dollars to get a shuttle that'll take me a few hours later. In other words, hey people who have my cell phone or AIM, feel free to message me Saturday afternoon.

Day 22: Digimon -What should have happened, but didn’t?
Let's not get started on the s2 epilogue okay >< ugh. Instead, I'll mention how I'm still pretty put off by the severe oversight in 02 of dropping a ton of foreshadowing and really intriguing, dark ideas about Kari and the Dark Dimension... and never going anywhere with it. The heck? On a similar line, I would have liked to see more of that stuff in Tamers with the Digimon who were vying to try and get Rika to be their Tamer. It just sort of dropped off after a few episodes, it sounded really creepy cool.

Dear RPS:

Thank you for letting me know that there is a TV Tropes page for LJRP. Which then let me find out there's a page for Daisychain. Which sent me on another nostalgia trip. Aaaaaaaa. It's really tempting to go and fill that sucker out even more but my Trope-fu is weak.

Day 20: Digimon -Least favorite season?
With retrospect, Frontier really wasn't all that bad. It still had some great characters and a big overarching plot, but... when you get down to it, part of what really made the show special was the connection between a kid and their partner. Without that, the show was much harder to appreciate fully. Not to mention the two main guys far outranked the other characters by the end, which always frustrated me.

Day 21: Pokemon -Favorite Friendship
Again, I haven't watched the show in years. However, the original trio of Ash, Brock and Misty will always be the best in my nostalgic mind. And I can trust that, one way or another, Brock will always show up again to be Ash's bro.

Bluh bluh trying to figure out how to make an art project with legos and trying to figure out how I'm going to get to Seattle this weekend. My brain is not assisting the process much. =\

I should try and actually have something of interest to say on these ._. sorry guys

Day 19: Favorite Eeveelution?
Espeon is a beeeeast.

( Why wouldn't they use the Leaf Stone for Leafeon >( )

Bluh I am officially out of ideas for where to take this NaNo story. Bluhhhhhh. I guess that means I get to just start a new one now whooooo

Today my friends and I had our first round of Avatar The Last Airbender DnD. It was pretty awesome. We're huge dorks.

Day 18: Digimon -Favorite Siblings?
You know, thinking back, the only characters I ever saw really feel like a true sibling relationship were Henri and Suzie. Sure, Tai and Kari were close, and Matt cared about TK, but you never saw them really get annoyed at each other like real siblings do--or at least not like me and my sister ever did. They felt a lot more like actual siblings, to me, than just characters we're told are siblings.

In other news hey guys my friend introduced me to a fun new game!
1) Go to DeviantArt
2) In the search bar, type in your first name followed by "hedgehog", "echidna", "bat", "fox", etc.
3) Look at all the Sonic fancharacters!

Day 17: Pokemon -Favorite Contest outfit?
...What? There are different ones? I always thought the one you had to wear in the game was pretty ugly.

( Do we really have to show the changing animation every time, too? )

You know how to tell when you had a good teacher? When they send you an email, and when you find it in your inbox, you get a warm feeling in your heart. I missed this guy =3

Got medicine for my ears, which hopefully means I'll soon be feeling less grumpy and ill all the time. In the meantime, WHOOPS FALLING BEHIND ON NANO

Day 15: Pokemon -COOLEST Boy?

That one Camper from Red and Blue; he was a cool guy. He had a girlfriend!

Day 16: Digimon -Favorite Friendship?

Oh god why would you make me pick this, five seasons and so many friendships.... on the biased note, I loved the fact that Joe and Gomamon were such complete opposites in nature, and even argued a lot early on. I also love how Davis could make pretty much friends with anyone off the bat, in spite of what a pure derp he was. In particular, how he refused to ever doubt Ken, from the very start. Such total bros.

Current Mood: tired

Ugh, seriously, my messed up ear is just... wholly distracting. I've been taking painkillers all day, since the Student Health Center is only open weekdays, and I really hope they can help me out tomorrow because dealing with this is a bitch. I even feel a bit out of it and woozy by this point, but that might just be because the pain kept me from getting a lot of sleep last night. YAY. And believe you me it is not fun trying to focus on NaNo like this.

Day 13: What do you think of Black and White/Best Wishes?
No real opinion.

Day 14: Digimon -COOLEST Boy?
The archetype of the second-in-command character throughout the seasons provided a lot of very cool boys that launched a thousand young children into fangirlism, but when you get down to it, the one character I looked at and thought, "Now THAT dude's a badass," was Ryo from Tamers. He'd been living in the Digital World for years, had a really hardcore dragon-type Digimon and his Mega form looked all sorts of awesome, and he wasn't even a dick about it; the guy was genuinely likable. Also, out of curiosity, I spent some time on the Digimon Wiki a little while back trying to better understand his backstory, and it turns out he actually links Tamers and 02 together. Friggin' sweet.

30 Days of Pokemon/Digimon
( but you have to play some of the really obscure games... )

Aaaaaaaaaa I've had a bitch of an earache since yesterday and it's driving me nuts aaaaaaaaa

That's all there is to say in the matter

1. Hello there, stranger, what's your aliases? (Common username, nicknames, etc)

UniverseJuice or UniJ in many locations, and groovehoppin or ScottishPanties in a couple places. PearlCagedDemon/ThePCD/PCD in places that I joined a longer time ago, and TeufelChen in one particular location.

2. That was some cool names... Care to tell me your real one?

Because I'm an overly trusting derp, I haven't bothered hiding my name from the internet at all. Hi guys I'm Sarah.

3. That was also cool! Now show of your own awesome nicknaming skills. Who do you call what?

As someone who plays Franky, I have to come up with a lot of really dumb and pointless nicknames |D Foxx as 'Silvers,' Red as 'Petstore,' Caboose as 'Trainbutt,' etc.

4. Okie, what do you think these people should know about you by now?

That I'm asexual.

5. What do you think they don't know?

Errr, idk, I can never keep track of who I've told what, and I'm pretty open with most all details about myself--like I said, overly trusting derp.

6. Random request time! Set your iTunes/Favorites on YouTube/any music player on Shuffle and then tell me the first five songs which starts to play!

1. The Yellow Monkey: Taiyou ga Moeteiru
2. DJ Earworm: Blame It On The Pop
3. Boom Boom Paradise (Rhythm Heaven OST, Japanese version)
4. Daft Punk: Megamix 1 (DJ Hero ST)
5. Sarah Saltzberg: Woe Is Me (25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee)

Not to mention two tracks of background music from Bowser's Inside Story, and one from Strong World... I need more normal music ><

7. Now list five of your favorite pairings from any kind of fandom! (Manga/anime, games, you name it!)

Jeez, I barely ship anything honestly...
1. Franky x Robin (One Piece)
2. Godot x Mia (Ace Attorney)
uhhhh... I have a few others that I like a little as ideas, but not that I really hardcore ship... >>;;

8. Check up on your Star Sign (the Western one) and tell me what characteristics people born in it is supposed to have that you think you yourself have. (Did that make sense?)

Patient and reliable, Warmhearted and loving, Persistent and determined, Placid and security loving

Ehh, I can see some of those for myself... Patient, placid, likes security... But I'm not exactly persistent, reliable's up for debate... and I think other people would have a better job figuring out if I'm warmhearted or not.

9. What characteristics do you think don't fit you?

I'm not a motivated person. I don't often make myself do things unless there's a clear deadline for it. I like to let things unfold instead of getting caught up worrying ahead of time... which has proven to be equal parts okay and a terrible idea.

10: Pimping time! Link me to something you've done which you're really proud over! (Fanfiction, picture, AMW, website, just give me the goodies!)

Ehh... My fanfic account is too fresh for me to hate anything on it yet, so here I guess

11. Here's six invitation cards, give them to six real persons you would like to have over at your place!

Oda, Betty White, Kazuki Yao, Cho, Tim Gunn, Robert Downey Jr.

12. And here's six ones to fictional persons~

John Egbert, Tavros Nitram, Tyrion Lannister, Kanji Tatsumi, Franky, Commander Kahn

13. Number 13, eh? Do you believe in such things as bad luck?

Naaaaaaaah, not really.

14. If you do, what do you have to protect yourself from it?

Positive thinking =3

15. And I think that was about it. Now please tag some people you want to know more random things about!

Let's go with

yamikonumber7 and

aviekokyre

Just passed eight thousand and managed to get to a part that got really pretty fun to write, which at least was good for the day's worth. The slight issue is I didn't plan a whole lot of stuff to happen after this point, maybe another day's worth... but I'll worry about that when I get there! At this point I'm just glad to meet each day's quota.

Day 11: Pokemon -Favorite Manga Character?
Ehh, it's been a while since I've actually read the comic, but I really did enjoy it at the time... I'd have to go with Red or Yellow, I think. they're both pretty good heroes, without too many annoying character traits that I think get in the way of a lot of the other guys.

30 Days of Pokemon/Digimon
( Hide your pokeballs in your bra, duh. )

6,070 words. It's crap, and I realized yesterday that it probably would read like one of those really terrible romance novels at some parts, despite the fact that there is no romance. Hurdurrrrrrr.

Also yesterday I made the mistake of reading fanfiction for Channel Awesome, which makes the interesting decision to take itself way too seriously for RPF about a bunch of people who like to make fun of things.

Day 10: Favorite Crest?
I remember just thinking that the crest of Friendship just looked plain cool. It's a yinyang with BLADES. Awesome. I can't really say which crest I really thought was genuinely best, though, I remember thinking they were all really good traits and probably switched which one I liked best every few weeks. Though, I also remember thinking that Zudomon was totally the coolest looking of the Ultimates. WALRUS TURTLE WITH A HAMMER, HELL TO THE YEAH.

30 Days of Pokemon/Digimon
( That's the impression I get. )

Augh NaNo continues to resist me -_- I'm at about 2,500 right now, I think my problem is I'm trying too hard to make it sound good and should just freakin' write. Durrrr.

Also my phone is being weird and not letting me call out, while my mom says that it sends her to voice mail when she calls despite it being on. Also my tooth brush recharger is broken. lol technology.

Day 09: Favorite Pokeball?
I guess the Nest Ball has been pretty useful, since I didn't pay any attention to catching more Pokemon until waaaay after when my main team was powerful enough to oneshot almost anything in the wild. Quick Ball has been useful also. This is kind of a silly question.

( All the children sing, na na na na na na na )

Current Mood: tired

How can a hat be that amazing

Had a pretty decent Halloween! Got to hang out with some cool people, get some candy, watch some videos, the works. Though, one woman got mad at us for being loud, because 'there are children around and I don't want to hear any of the f word!" Never mind the fact that we weren't swearing at all and were mostly singing. Haha, mothers. On the opposite end of the scale, there was a pregnant woman dressed in an alien costume, and she called herself the Mothership. It was perfect.

Really not looking forward to tackling NaNo right now, though; I don't have much in the way of ideas for it, so I figure I'll stumble through it as an exercise but won't beat myself up if I run out of steam. I think for the most part it'll just serve as motivation to get more work done on some fics I've been putting off.

Day 08: Digimon -Favorite LEGITIMATE RELATIONSHIP?
Hmmmm. The only 'canon' relationship I remember ever really liking was Rika and Ryo from Tamers. The flirting from him and the tsundere-type denial on her part was really entertaining to me back when I was...what... twelve. I think, out of all the actual canon relationships, theirs was the only one I felt got enough development to make me feel like it worked. I'm still mad that Sora didn't end up with Tai.

30 Days of Pokemon/Digimon
( STAT SCREEEEEEN )

In related news! DIGIMON ABRIDGED!

Hahaha, I've only spent like an hour or so outside in my costume but there've already been people calling out in recognition. Nothing beats nostalgia, guys. (Though I'm like the only person I've seen yet in costume. I guess everyone else is too much of a pansy to put on their costumes before evening.)

Day 07: Pokemon -Favorite Quote?
I stopped watching the show sometime back in '01 or '02, and though if I rewatched the early seasons I'm sure I'd find some gems, I can't really remember any good lines from it. But as far as games go, the complete dumbness of some of the opening battle lines are amazing. Say, for example, my icon. Or, "I like leaving footprints in the sand!" Quite intimidating indeed.

EDIT: You know what line I remember loving from the second movie? There was all this dramatic buildup to blah blah blah Ash has to save the world again, then it just cuts to Slowking standing in the snow and saying, "I wish I had pants =|" What can I say, I'm a sucker for pants jokes.

( Eek! Did you just touch me? )

Day 06: Digimon -Favorite Male Character?

I really like Joe. I dunno why, he was probably the least focused on during Adventure and showed up in, seriously I think three episodes for 02. But there's something so endearing about the kid trying so hard to be taken seriously and wants so badly to help everyone out, no matter how rarely he's taken seriously or how bad he gets trounced in the process. ...Dear god I think I just found the origin of my love for the Rookies. WOW. Cody and Henry in 02 and Tamers were also great characters. I guess I just have a thing for the serious-minded guys that try to act as the more logic-based teammate.

( Kids in Ameri--Japan--uh )

Hey Sarah how're those three art projects due Tuesday coming

Haha oh yeah I was supposed to work on those wasn't I

brb making fun of Creation of Man

Hahaha, I was actually social today, what's up with that. Some friends and I took a long drive to see another friend, it was a lot of fun though now I am real life'd out. Worth it!

Also getting Hajime in a fight with the goddamn Jabberwock has possibly been the most epic thing I've done in RP for quite a while. Hell yeah.

Day 05: Pokemon -Favorite video-game?
Silver. I can't really be sure right now if Soul Silver outranks it, because they really did a great job with the remake, but I just remember loving Silver with such a passion when it came out, and ever since. I can still pick it up to play today and love the heck out of it. Soul Silver really does a great job of keeping things from the original version while bringing in new and exciting things; Leaf Green was nice for having updated graphics, I guess, but I actually have less fun playing that than my original Blue cartridge.

30 Days of Pokemon/Digimon
( On the road-a-road-a-road )

Haha, wow, I'm finally back into rhyme-writing, and it's not even for Spin. I feel soooooo out of practice, but it's fun to finally try it again.

Also it's a pretty bad sign when I've fallen behind on this meme THIS early in the month but oh well RET'S GO!

Day 03: Pokemon -Favorite Movie?
I remember the second movie was coming out right when my love for the Pokemon series was on the decline, I only went to see it because they gave you the then-rare Ancient Mew card on opening weekend. Of course, afterwards the price plummeted, derp derp. All the movies have been honestly dorky as all heck, but I remember enjoying the Lucario movie when I saw it on TV, pretty much because Lucario's a huge badass.

Day 04: Digimon -Favorite Female Character?
As a little girl, I thought Sora was the most awesome fictional girl there was. She was cool, and she could fight, but she was nice, and she was good at soccer and was taken completely seriously by all the guys as an important member of the team. It's worth noting that I remember hating Yolei when I first saw Season 2, but when I rewatched it last year I thought she was a really great and well-designed character, too.

30 Days of Pokemon/Digimon
( Changing all the time, change into power )

Hey all my MSPA-loving flist, did you notice that awesome thing that happened last night? Well hey, look what I found. (I still need to figure out how people make animated .gifs and stuff for avatars if they don't have photoshop 8| what am I missing here)

Day 02: Which Digimon would you like to have for your own?

I always thought that Gomamon was the coolest of the Chosen kid's Digimon. He was just so goofy, and had a lot more personality than some of the other Digimon, at least in season 1. Also, despite the fact that he's never been in any real focus at all, I think that Kotemon has an absolutely adorable design <3

30 Days of Pokemon/Digimon
( Digt-digt-digt )

Current Mood: mellow

Oooookay I am going to do this thing. I kind of am tempted to do the video game one as well, but let's be honest, Sarah hasn't played a lot of games. There will be a lot of listing of the same thing over and over. But Digimon and Pokemon? THAT I can do! Drr drr holes and all that.

Day 01: Your Pokemon dream-team?

I am not much of a competitive player. I like a team that's balanced and can hit hard. Also, I have little to no familiarity with the 3rd and 4th gen, so I only use 1 and 2 for the most part.

I like badasses like Scizor, Tyranitar, Arcanine, Starmie, Ampharos, and... I dunno... Hitmonchan, I guess. Plenty of variety and badass-lookingness.

If Pokemon allowed for multiple save files like MILLIONS OF OTHER GAMES DO TODAY JEEEEEEEEEZ, I would love to attempt a playthrough with a team less balanced, for both challenge and certain geeky reasons. But no, I get attached to the team I go through my game with, and I don't like the idea of having to pick one of the other. Boohoo =p
