The new and awesome Cowrie Fanclub!

[Gilgαmesh]

This club is dedicated to one of PC's cool staff member Cowrie! I recommend you to join he club..or else...XD

[Ryoutarou]

*joins and never posts again*

I mean...yay...*joins*

[Gilgαmesh]

Yay. Now lets talk about Cowrie and how cool she is...XD

[Cowrie]

Me? Cool? Those two words don't belong in the same sentence, in my opinion.

But anyways. Thank you for making this. ^_^

[Chairman Kaga]

Definitely here........Cowrie = <33333

[Gilgαmesh]

You are cool Cowrie. You're awesome <33333

Alan: XD

[Signomi]

Ooh. I must join XD Cowrie's a great artist and spriter. She's also one of my favourite mods ^_^;

[Gilgαmesh]

I'm not stopping you...XD

[Cowrie]

And I'm not about to stop anybody either. :D

*not sure what to say now* o.o

[Signomi]

Er >.>;

Um, how are you then, Cowrie? X3

[Cowrie]

Eh, I'm mostly okay...just trying to take care of my thumb at the moment, since it got nicked by my kitten's claws this morning, and the scratch looks a bit red at the moment. ^_^;

But other than that, I'm fine :D

[Signomi]

Your poor thumb D: Well atleast you never had a cat claw up your leg...I think o.O; That hurts ;-;

Good ^^;

[Gilgαmesh]

....And I thought kittens were harmless....

[Signomi]

....And I thought kittens were harmless....

Sure, they want you to think that, but underneath that cute exterior lies ebil..EBIL I TELL YE! -cough-

Anyways. Yeah. Cats/kittens can be quite a handful >>;

[Cowrie]

Actually, I had that same kitten cling to my leg, stomach, and shoulder the other night. XD Apparently she won't stop if she really wants something...and she really wanted the glowstick I was holding (I was trying to fix the string on it at that moment).

Oh, kittens are harmless enough...as long as you don't get in the way whenever they're playing with something.

Tell me about them being a handful...I had to help raise this kitten from an infant for about a month and a half before I went back to school. My mom found her when she was just about only a week old, and...yeah. We originally weren't going to keep her...that didn't turn out too well, though. XD

[Signomi]

Curse kitties and their claws DX; But..I suppose it was cute that she wanted the glowstick, at the cost of you getting clinged at in many places X3;

I learnt that the hard way <.<; I once had a little incident with my neighbour's cat, he was fiddling about with a piece of string, then I was, unfortunetely, nearby when I tripped and landed my foot on the tail of that pesky feline >_<; I got scratched almost everywhere...

Well atleast you've a nice little Kitty to keep you company, no? =3

Several of them, actually. XD There's five cats here, though one of them might not be around for too much longer at the rate she's going...though I don't wish to think about that at the moment. *cough* @_@

Ow...that hurts just to think about it. Cat scratches aren't any fun...multiple ones even less so.

[Signomi]

Oh no...D: My sympathies.

5 Cats? XD Good golly, how do you manage? X3

Indeed, just goes to show that you shouldn't meddle with the likes of a feline >.>; How many cat scratches have you had in total? X3 I know it may be an impossible question but..curiousity and stuff X3;

[Cowrie]

Oh no...D: My sympathies.

lol...I'm not sure. We just do. XD And it's odd, because every time someone says we're through with getting more cats...we somehow end up getting another one.

I'm not sure how many scratches I've had...a lot, probably. I've probably had more cat bites than scratches, though...mostly because I like teasing my cats, and they retaliate by biting back. Though those back claws can be rather wicked as well...

That's one thing I didn't miss while being away at college. :P

[Signomi]

Lol. That's ..erm, you're through with getting more cats -waits until you get another one- XD

Then you shouldn't tease them if you know they'd do that X3; That must've been quite the 'Cat'astrophie [/bad pun] ¬.¬;

Lol. Heh. I wonder what it's like at College? X3

[Cowrie]

Lol. That's ..erm, you're through with getting more cats -waits until you get another one- XD

Lol. Heh. I wonder what it's like at College? X3

*snrk* But it's fun to tease them. D:

It's rather nice there...you get more freedom than you do in high school, of course...the dorm rooms are rather meh, or at least the one I have is. XD But it's also in one of the oldest residence buildings there, or so I remember hearing...

[Signomi]

Yeah, it's fun, if you want to get hurt D:

More Freedom? I want to go to College, now! XD I can't stand High School D:

Oldest? Groovy. It's special, then XP

[Esupio]

me join now... you say no I cry cause cowrie=pwnful.

o.o;

hello

[Cowrie]

Oldest? Groovy. It's special, then XP
If you say so...if having no carpets in the rooms and springy beds with no support under them is special. XD
me join now... you say no I cry cause cowrie=pwnful.

o.o;

hello
Hi! :D Sure you can join.


Hm...once this evening comes (US eastern time), I'll have been at this forum for exactly one year. o.o Whoo~

[Signomi]

Erm, I'd like to withdraw my last comment XD;

Welcome Blaze.

Woah, a year? Now that, is special XD

[Esupio]

I've been here a year... ¬¬; nobody called me special... lucky cowrie

*thinks of random question to ask* whats your favourite sprite you created?

[The Hunk]

I will definately join this great club dedicated to Cowrie. I probably send her three PMs a week with reports in it. She is great! So may I join Cowrie?

[Cowrie]

Of course you can join! :D

Hm...and as to the question about my favorite sprite...I'm not sure about that, actually. I have a few favorites, and I can't really decide which one I like best...

[The Hunk]

Yay! I am so happy. You are such a great person!

So Cowrie how are you today? And what do you have planned today?

[Cowrie]

Yay! I am so happy. You are such a great person!

So Cowrie how are you today? And what do you have planned today?

:]

I'm doing okay so far...and I'm planning on going shopping later today after class, but that's out of necessity (need supplies for class) more than anything.

I'm also so glad the forum is finally back, even if it's not in its best working condition right now.

[The Hunk]

Ohh how cool. I hope you have fun shopping today. I wish I could go shopping, but I have no money. I need to buy Christmas presents.

I am glad it is back. Some of the conveniances of quick stuff are gone, but some of us need to be less lazy. *Points to me*

Cowrie can I add you to my MSN?

Cowrie can I add you to my MSN?

Yeah, you can. ^_^

Ah, Christmas presents...I need to go Christmas shopping sometime soon. ^_^;; Maybe during the first week of my break. I've gotten something only for my sister so far, and I'm not sure what to get for anybody else. o.o

[The Hunk]

I will add you soon.

I need to buy presents for my bro. I would like to buy presents for more members of my family though. I want to get a job so I do not have to ask my parents for money to buy presents.

[Cowrie]

I'd like to buy presents for all members of my family, though I'm mostly worried about getting something for my boyfriend. I feel bad since he's already gotten something for me, and for my sister as well, but I still don't have a clear idea of what to get him. ^_^;; Ah well...I'll have to look around once I get the chance.

Whoo...got my shopping done for today, thankfully.

[The Hunk]

That is great to hear that you got your shopping done. I was hoping you would get it done successfully.

If he loves you, he will love anything you get him Cowrie. That is the way a relationship supposed to work.

[Cowrie]

Well, yeah, but I also don't want to be totally lazy whenever I go to look for a gift. I want to have some thought put behind it. ^_^

Whoo, I leave for about 45 minutes, and I see the forum's almost back to normal. :D *clings to the new posts button again*

[The Hunk]

I know it is so exciting it is almost back to normal. I was surprised when I re-logged on, and found all the problems had been solved.

Well, I am sure you know your boyfriend better than anyone, so you will have no problem finding the perfect present for him

[Cowrie]

I guess...

Hm. I wish the wireless network would work in my room right now...it's so boring sitting out here, since I don't bring out anything along with my laptop except for my mouse. I'm wanting to fall asleep as well...meh.

I was given something to try today that I wish I had more of at the moment. Blueberry cream bread - it reminded me of a blueberry muffin (though in loaf form), with cream cheese in the center. I absolutely love blueberry muffins and things like it, so...yeah. O.o

Wow, we actually have some of that in our freezer right this second. My mom is going to make it on Christmas Day. The one she made not to long ago with just cream cheese in the middle was extremely good as well.

[Cowrie]

Wow, I'm slow. It took me until a little while ago to realize that my avatar had reverted to my previous one...heh.

The one she made not to long ago with just cream cheese in the middle was extremely good as well.
That sounds good as well. ^_^ I like cream cheese.

And just thinking about that makes me hungry...I really ought to go get something to eat.

[The Hunk]

Well, now you are eating mac and cheese, and that makes me sick.

Cream cheese is good. I like to eat cream cheese on chocolate chop bagels. Yummy.

[Cowrie]

Whoo, I feel accomplished. Finally got my last sculpture done!...or as done as it's probably gonna be, anyways. Though that's what I was supposed to do anyways, seeing as the last class day is Monday. ^_^;;

I still need to take pictures of all my sculptures and then show them off. :D

[Gilgαmesh]

Hi Cowrie. How ish you today? I'm hungry...XD

[Cowrie]

Eh, I'm a bit tired, but I'm doing alright. ^_^

...Actually, I shouldn't say just "a bit". I ended up falling asleep for a few hours before I actually finished this post. Heh.

[The Hunk]

Oh wow, you must have been really tired. I am glad that I do not have to go the bed at a certain time tonight. I am also glad I am free from school for a coupld days.

[Cowrie]

This poor thread, it was on the third page. ;_;

Yeah, I was tired then. I just have poor sleeping habits that I don't feel like trying to change at times. :/ At least I seem to be past the "toss and turn and stay awake all night" stage that I went through a while back...that was annoying. >_<

Hm, the finals I have to worry about the most are this Friday, both in the morning...I hope I do well enough with them. o.o One's an actual test, but the other's a combination of critique for the project I've been working on, plus a powerpoint presentation of an illustrator I was given to research. x_x

[The Hunk]

Oh well, good luck with those things. I had an Algebra II test this morning. It was actually easy. I am happy that is is done.

[Cowrie]

Heh, that's good. ^_^ I remember all my Algebra classes...they weren't too hard, compared to some other things...like Calculus. *hiss* Every time I think back on that class, I'm still surprised I got the grades that I did in that class (a C and a B). O_o

[The Hunk]

Lucky me, if I go to the college I am planning to go to, I will only have a little bit of Calculus. I guess Elementary grade level teachers do not need much Calculus.

[Cowrie]

I'd assume they wouldn't...since I can't think of any use for it except to teach it, and...well... ^_^;;

It wasn't much more than a useless class for me, though - seeing as I'm an art major, and I have no real need for any kind of highly advanced math. :/ Bah. Though, to be fair, I wasn't totally set on a course for art just yet back then...but I knew that's what I wanted to do.

Oh, what a dreary afternoon...a storm struck here, and it's been raining for the past while. ._.;;

[The Hunk]

Well, it is snowing like crazy here. 6 to 10 inches expected. I am like, blah!!

[Cowrie]

Lot of snow. :/

It's too warm for snow here. ._.;; I still wouldn't mind having a little bit of it...not a lot, though.

[The Hunk]

Well, maybe you will get some snow at your family's house for Christmas.

"I'm dreaming of a white Christmas..."

[Cowrie]

*does the "I don't have to worry about classes for the rest of the month" dance* Whoo! Break!

I can finally not worry about finals anymore! o.o

[The Hunk]

Congrats Cowrie, you finished your finals, what are you going to do now?

[Gilgαmesh]

Hi Cowrie. How are you today? I'm great. So I guess it's no more school for you...XD

[Cowrie]

Congrats Cowrie, you finished your finals, what are you going to do now?
I'm gonna sit back and enjoy my christmas break, that's what I'm gonna do. :D

Or try to enjoy it, anyways...I've already been told I'm gonna be put to work around the house (things are still lying unfinished around here, and my boyfriend's coming to visit in 10 days ._.;; )

Hi Cowrie. How are you today? I'm great. So I guess it's no more school for you...XD
Not until January, no.

I'm actually rather tired right now...I've been up since around 6:30 am, with only a short nap in between...and that was after getting only 3 hours or so of sleep. -_o And it's almost 11 pm my time right now, so...yeah...

[The Hunk]

Well, I do hope you enjoy your break. *looks at calendar* I get out on the 21st, and I am ready to be done for this year. I hope 2006 is a better year than 2005!

[mewthree w/armor]

Ya know, we just can't let this die. *Hugs Cowrie*

[Signomi]

...I'm still for the whole mewthree x Cowrie thing...yeah XD

[Spectrum]

*sneaks in*

How now, brown Cow? :3

[mewthree w/armor]

*Hits Signomi over head with Steel Chair*

*Acts Cute* Cowrie, I'm sorry for accidently hitting you with a brick in the chat, it was aimed for Signomi and she ducked...may I beg for forgivness? *Does Sad Face*

[Signomi]

Basher D:

I ducked? Nah, you just threw the brick at a wrong angle, and you hit her ;x

Quack D:

[redpikachu2]

are u guys still talking about cats...my sisters cat got its arm dead....and we got to cut it off

[Cowrie]

*actually posts in here!*

The cat discussion was made over a month ago, but eh...whatever.

I just had one of my cats put to sleep last Monday. Meh. .-.

@mewthree: thanks a lot for reviving this. ^_^ And I forgive you for the brick...for now...as long as it doesn't happen again. D:

[The Hunk]

Oh Cowrie, I am so sorry to hear that.

How have you been doing? Did you strongly enjoy your break?

[mewthree w/armor]

Your welcome Cowrie :D. Yes how as your break been, I hope you have not been as stupid as I and work to make money.

[Gilgαmesh]

Hi cowrie. I hope you forgive me for not posting here. I hate my internet connection. XD

[Cowrie]

Ah, my break was fine, except for the small part of it that I spent sick (not that I minded that. But why did I have to be sick the most on Christmas day?? ._.;; )

Don't worry Kazuma, I understand how internet connections can be at times... *casts evil glare at her own fickle internet connection*

[The Hunk]

Well, being sick at Christmas time does suck. I have been sick at Christmas like 4 times in my life. I hate it, but Christmas is always good nonetheless.

[Cowrie]

Yeah, that's true. At least it was nothing more than just a cold; I can think of many ways in which it could have been worse.

On an unrelated note...I have a feeling I'm gonna end up liking my drawing class this semester. It's a figure-drawing class - exactly something I've been wanting to take (since my skills with drawing figures aren't the greatest). o_o

[The Hunk]

Wow, that is a blessing. I wish you luck with those classes.

I love your new avvie, BTW.

[Chairman Kaga]

I really regret not coming here since my first post.......YOU'RE SO AWESOME ;_;

I wish my high school had a figure-drawing class; we only have generic things like "drawing", "painting", "crafts", etc.......it's exactly what I'm the worst at but it's necessary for drawing so many things. Good luck, but you're incredibly talented, so I think you have it anyway.

Jiguzama <3

[Cowrie]

Wow, that is a blessing. I wish you luck with those classes.

I love your new avvie, BTW.

Thanks. :)

I love my new avvie too. ^_^ I found that picture last night after I decided I wanted to use zigzagoon for an avatar, and I nearly squealed over how cute it was, and...yeah. It looks so cuddly. :D

Jiguzama <3

I don't feel that awesome, though. D:

Sounds like how the art classes in my high school were - we had, as far as I remember, only things like "Art I", "Art II", and even "Painting" after some time. At least half the assignments (in the "art" classes, anyways) consisted of "Here's a picture [usually of copyrighted characters] on the blackboard, now copy it onto a piece of paper to the best of your ability". There also weren't many supplies in the room that weren't just cheap poster board or Crayola-based products - definitely not the best for the Painting class...

(Yes, I was definitely glad once I finally got to this university and had some decent art classes...)

Considering that what I've managed so far in the class doesn't look like it could almost come straight from a cartoon, I think I'm doing okay. ^_^;;

[Gilgαmesh]

Cowwie, that avatar is so kawaii! ^___^ So how are things going?

[Cowrie]

Cowwie, that avatar is so kawaii! ^___^ So how are things going?

:D

Ah, they're going okay...I have a four-day weekend (well, more like three and half by now XD) in which I should work on ideas for other classes...I'll have to poke myself into doing that later. o.o

[Gilgαmesh]

All my 6 periods turned out to be fun. What about you?

[Cowrie]

All my 6 periods turned out to be fun. What about you?

My classes are okay...I don't see myself ending up hating them too much, as most of them are studio classes and/or give me access to a computer (except for my Ethics in Technology class, but even that shouldn't be too bad).

That's exactly the way our art classes are...some are too general to be effective, and all the ones that seem like they could be interesting are completely ruined by the teacher because she uses the theme of the class as a springboard for things that suit her own cliché creativity and are only tangent to the original theme of the class in definition. At least we get to draw whatever we want most of the time; but that's a whole other problem in and of itself x_x

Indeed. I'm not sure if I even learned anything from my art classes back then that I didn't already know - well, except maybe how to copy pictures. :P And even then, I already knew how to do that.

Blah...I'm trying to figure out what to put into my sig, since it looks so bare without an image. I was thinking a banner, but all my attempts at one come out rather stale. ._.

[The Hunk]

I'm sure whatever you pick will look awesome. I finally changed my siggy a bit. I had to take a break from Blaziken for a little while. Do you like?

I love your new avvie, I just can't get over how cute it is.

[Cowrie]

I just want to hug that zigzagoon and give it treats and whatnot. It's that adorable.

Yeah, I like your new theme. Looks good. ^^

[The Hunk]

Thanks, I could hug the Zigzagoon too. It looks as cudly as my cat. *hold cat* *gets clawed by cat* Come back kitty!!

[Cowrie]

Hehe. Though...not so cuddly when claws are sinking into you, yes? :P

Hm, my hands have looked sorta like they've been injured since yesterday...though they're not, really. I managed to stain my hands with some alizarin crimson ink during my printmaking class (messy, messy class, with its oil-based inks), and it's just the right color to make them look that way...

O_o

[The Hunk]

Well, my mom is looking for the cat to claw my eyes out at some point in the future.

Sorry to hear about your hands.

[Gilgαmesh]

Hi Cowwie. How ish you today? I am great.

Thank goodness none of my teachers assigned me a project that may get my hands stained. Oh my beautiful hands. ;__;

[Cowrie]

Ah, don't feel sorry for them - it's just ink. ^_^;;

Even if it was annoying ink that didn't want to come off even with multiple washings, but...

I'll have to get used to that anyways...until I get gloves, at least. o.o Which I should get soon, since we have to use solvents in that class anyways, and those definitely can't be good for bare hands.

[wakachamo]

COWWIE! X3

...xD

How are you? XP

Even though you say no, I feel sorry for you hands though XDDD

Yeah, small signatures rock. And as far as I know... I don't have a class that lets you have your hands stained... o.o

[Cowrie]

Hi. ^_^ I'm okay right now.

It's one of the drawbacks of being an art major with some studio classes. I have...let's see...at least three classes in which that can happen? Drawing, Printmaking, and Ceramics. o.o Especially the Printmaking, though.

[Gilgαmesh]

*looks at your sig* The report button....i despise it. I mean, I think the staff hardly check their email.

[wakachamo]

Still, it looks funny and teaches you in a funny way XDDDD

Besides that Furret looks cute holding it up XD

[Cowrie]

I check my email somewhat often...when I don't forget about it, anyways. That's one of the things I always have a tab open for in Firefox (always the first tab, actually).

I'd rather have something like that furret than to yell at some people to please use the report button. :P Of course, it doesn't work if someone has signatures turned off, but...hey, it's the thought that counts...I hope.

[Aorio]

IM joining because of Cowrie's avvies xP all of them are so cool! IM also joining because... SHe's cool... and awesome, and cool, and stuff... yeah...

Pming the staff is a lot easier in my opinion because they repond to it quicker. I mean, most of the staff from what I see, check their email once in a blue moon

[Cowrie]

Yeah, it is quicker. I know I'd rather have the PMs than the emails, since I'm lazy and would rather not switch to another site momentarily if I don't have to... XP

Meh, so bored right now. o.o

[Signomi]

-pops in dressed as an Eevee-

Well this seems pretty awkward o.o

Hi 8D

Uh oh. Bringing the eevee influence in here as well, are you?

(Heh, thanks.)

[Gilgαmesh]

It's the attack of the Eevees! :O

Hi Cowwie :3

[Cowrie]

Pfft. There'll be no eevee attacks in here while I'm looking.

Such a cute little creature could never do something like that. *Pokes the cute Zigzagoon* *chomp* Youch! It bit my finger off o.O

There are several rules you need to follow if you want to feel safe outside your house

1. Never poke a Zigzagoon

~More rules to come soon~

Chinchou <333

D;

[The Hunk]

Eevee's are kinda cute, but I think Chinchou's have so much more cute appeal. They are, of course, one of the strongest Pokemon evolution chains and power is beautiful.

[Cowrie]

Eh, I much prefer lanturn myself, as it looks like some sort of friendly whale-fish thingy. XP

Never actually used one in a game before, though...

[The Hunk]

I like Chinchou and Laturn as a chain. I could never love one more than the other.

[Cowrie]

I used to like Chinchou a bit more than I do now, but over time it's just...I dunno, lost a bit of its appeal to me.

And that reminds me...I should update the "favorite pokemon" list in my profile...if I recall correctly, zigzagoon's not in there. :P

*gets lost for a moment among all the FF tabs she has open right now* x.x Yikes.

Such a dreary day it is today here...meh...

[Chairman Kaga]

Lanturn is surprisingly strong; now that Stadium and Yellow are so old and acquiring Surfing Raichu is a thing of the past, water/electric synergy is important and very rare.


Eevee.......I think you all know what I think of Eevee. I don't want to have to dig up my multi-page rant from months ago just to prove it XD

[Cowrie]

Eevee.......I think you all know what I think of Eevee. I don't want to have to dig up my multi-page rant from months ago just to prove it XD

Hah, I still remember that...part of that, anyways...

The thread it's in is still on the first page of the Pokemon General forum right now anyways, so you wouldn't have to dig too far for it. :P

[Chairman Kaga]

Oh, that's right, I told someone off for making a new eevee thread when there were still five revival days left on the other one, I think XD

[Cowrie]

People and their eevee threads...meh.

That's what happens when people don't use the search button. :< That poor thing is lonely...no one* knows it even exists...

*Or so it seems like at some times.

[The Hunk]

Eevee is a good Pokemon, I like Eevee and its evo chain. At least two of the evolutions of Eevee will be in my of four teams in Emerald.

[Aorio]

Such a cute little creature could never do something like that. *Pokes the cute Zigzagoon* *chomp* Youch! It bit my finger off o.O

There are several rules you need to follow if you want to feel safe outside your house

1. Never poke a Zigzagoon

~More rules to come soon~

You got that right ><;;
*Looks at fingers in casts* ;_;
*Cautiously tries to pet the zigzagoon* *Zizagoon scratches me* ANOTHER RULE: NEVER even TOUCH Cowries Zigzagoon ;_;
It hurts X.X

[Cowrie]

Yikes...I didn't notice this club had gotten any more replies until earlier today... O_o How they escaped my notice, I'm not sure. It made this thread go to the fifth page, though. .-.;;

I'm thinking of changing my avatar yet again sometime...so the zigzagoon would be going away. :P

[Sawyer]

I have to join =O I didn't know you had a fanclub ;-;

[Cowrie]

Don't worry, there are others who didn't realize it either. :P I don't exactly shout out that I have one, really.

[mewthree w/armor]

*Glomp* Don't think your getting away without one.

[Cowrie]

Aww...and I thought I could get away- er, I mean, of course not. :O Hi.

So tired right now...I need to force myself to stop waiting until past 2 am to finally sleep. x_x;;

[mewthree w/armor]

*Glomp* Don't think your getting away without one. *Gives flower and runs away*

[Cowrie]

I can't get away from a glomp if it's done to me before anything's said, so no worries there. ;P *is glomped, apparently*

And I thank you for reviving this before it was too late, again...I was worrying that this thread might become too old. O_o

[Kylie-chan]

Cowrie-chaaan <3 May I join? X3

[Gilgαmesh]

Cowrie-chaaan <3 May I join? X3

Yes you could join Kylie.

[Cowrie]

Cowrie-chaaan <3 May I join? X3

I'm not about to say no, so of course you may. ^_^

[Kylie-chan]

Thank you. ^__^ So, how are you?

[Gilgαmesh]

Cowrie, you must thank me for making this club. I mean, you finally got something to post in other than just search topics. XD

[Cowrie]

Yes, I do need to thank you, don't I? ^_^ And that's rather true, since there are plenty of times when there seems to be nothing I want to post to...

@Kylie: I'm fine right now. ^_^ Just...sitting here doing nothing at the moment, actually. Aside from making this post, that is.

[Kylie-chan]

XD Glad to hear you're well. =3 +is doing nothing as well - flitting between threads and browsing PC+

[Cowrie]

Yeh, I'll be so glad to finally be able to go home, and not have to deal with things such as a connection that likes to act funky every weekend or so...

I've been doing various other things now, like actually playing my GBA again, in order to kill any extra time around here. :P Though I should start working on a few things for classes, soon...even though spring break is only a week away, I still have things that need to get done. x.x

[mewthree w/armor]

Man I wish I had time to kill...lucky you.

[Cowrie]

*11 days later...* I really should be putting some of that free time towards school work...like...soon. I'll start on it in a bit, I suppose.

So...I saw Howl's Moving Castle the other night. Pretty good movie, if I say so myself...now I want to find the original novel in order to compare it to the movie, especially since I read that there seems to be quite a few differences between them. O_o

[mewthree w/armor]

Work, study, homework, anime, no life. Theres me. LOL.

[Cowrie]

Well...I'm bored, slightly tired, sitting in class at the moment, not sure what else I want to do on this assignment in front of me, and this thread could use some activity as well...

So I shall amuse myself and add a dose of cute to here.

Click. (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v299/nepryne/minijacka1.png)

:]

Just something I've been working on a bit - though not much lately, since not only have I been worrying about school projects, but I somehow got hooked into playing Jak II as well. O_o What fun.

[Drummershuff]

~REVIVES~

Can I join here? I've seen Cowrie around the place. XD

[mewthree w/armor]

OMG. Ubber Cuteness there with the picture Cowrie. ^_^

[Cowrie]

@drummershuff: Of course you can join! I've let everybody else who's asked that be able to join. :P

@mewthree: Isn't it? ^_^ I even surprised myself by it, since I drew the original picture it's based off of and then forgot about it...I literally squealed about how adorable it was when I found it again. O.o

[Drummershuff]

Thank you Cowrie. So how might you be today? :)

[Cowrie]

For some reason, I have a bad habit of somehow not noticing whenever people post in here at times...eh...

Even though I'm about a day late, I'm fine right now. ^_^ Still have some things I should get done, but those shouldn't take too long, and I'll most likely do them later.

[Drummershuff]

Yeah, you should just come here anyway. XD
I'm glad that you are okay.

Um, I don't know what to ask now. What does "Cowrie" mean?

[Cowrie]

To quote part of answers.com:

"cowrie or cowry (both: kou'rē) , common name applied to marine gastropods belonging to the family Cypraeidae, a well-developed family of marine snails found in the tropics."

I'd post a picture of one, but I can't find one that I like enough, so meh.

It was actually a name I gave to a character of mine years ago (since I'd remember reading about cowrie shells years before then, and I thought it was a decent name to give to her). That character went out of use eventually, and since I still liked her I decided I'd use the name for myself whenever I signed up for forums. ^_^;

[Drummershuff]

Oh, right. I knew it would be something werid like that. :P

[Kylie-chan]

It's not weird, just original n_n

[Cowrie]

Originality is what I was going for. ^_^ I wanted a name that wasn't too farfetched, and yet wasn't one that had been done a million times before. So...yeah.

I've reverted back to an older avatar of mine for now. The buizeru was cute, but I just got tired of it.

[Drummershuff]

Yeah, It is original. I'll give you that. XD I like your avatar. Its different colours. O: I like. XD

[Cowrie]

Thanks. ^_^ The original picture it came from isn't nearly as colorful, though since I'm sucker for colorful things I added the colors when I made the avatar.

I can't remember when I last used this...it's been a few months, at least.

[Drummershuff]

Yeah, the colours make it look interesting.

Do you mind if I add you to my MSN?

[Cowrie]

Nah, I don't mind. The only time I mind is if someone adds me just to spam at me or continually poke at me with those annoying msn nudges (and that's happened several times)...so as long as you're not going to do that, then I'm not gonna care whether you add me or not.

[Drummershuff]

1. I turned nudges off.
2. I don't spam on MSN. o_o
I'll add you then. XD
Are you online now?

edit: I added you and it says you are offline. Maybe you should add me. drummershuff@hotmail.co.uk

[Cowrie]

Good, very good then. :D

There's a reason for me being offline. I'm not on MSN at the moment as I forgot to turn it on earlier, and I'm not at my computer right now anyways. I'll see about turning it on once I get back to it, though.

[Drummershuff]

I guess that would explain why! Catch you later then.

[Sana]

Hey Cowrie! *poke* XD

Can I join? Please? :3

[Cowrie]

I'll probably be getting there soon, as there's no use for me to just sit in class here...I think I'm just waiting to get thumbnails back. If I do get them back. .-.

Of course you can, Sammi. :D

[Sana]

Yay~ ^^ How's school been?
Thumbnails? Thumbnails of what?

Wow, I feel like 20 questions over here~ XD

[mewthree w/armor]

Hows your classes been latey Cowrie?

[Cowrie]

It's been okay...it's getting to the point where I'm waiting for it to be done, since I've now got several projects I need to worry about. @_@ Well, not as many as before, thankfully, but there's still some left.

Ah, they're just thumbnails for my last graphic design assignment...we were given a story to read, and then we're supposed to design a book cover based off that story.

[Drummershuff]

I'll probably be getting there soon, as there's no use for me to just sit in class here...I think I'm just waiting to get thumbnails back. If I do get them back. .-.

Of course you can, Sammi. :D

Well, I'm going in about one hour. I need an early night for tommorow. So I may not catch you tonight. Probably will be tommorow. XD

[Sana]

Argh... I just *hate* projects. XD I always procrastinate on them. Well, at least you don't have as many. ^^;

Oh, I see. :3 It sounds like fun~

[Cowrie]

Yeah, it's somewhat fun...I just wonder if I'm gonna have enough time before the semester ends to be able to do a decent job of making the actual picture (since I plan on doing it in Painter, and even digital painting takes a bit of time)...

[Gilgαmesh]

It's Derrick to the rescue! XDDD

Hi Cowrie. How are you?

[Cowrie]

Woot, thread revival!

I'm okay. Just trying not to eat too much more chocolate at the moment (I had a rabbit with large ears on it, and the ears are nearly gone by now @__@ ). I've been told I have another rabbit waiting for when I finally get home, which probably won't be for another few weeks...heh...

[Sana]

W00t! *gets hit for not posting* XD

But chocolate is good for you... D: Okay, maybe not, but it's good. :3

How big of ears are we talking? o_O;

[Cowrie]

Well...um...

I'd say the rabbit was about a good foot tall, at least (I'm guessing, since the rabbit's almost gone by now; no matter how hard I try, I can't resist chocolate), with the ears being slightly over half that size.

So yeah. O_o

[Sana]

Wow. That's pretty big. O_O;
I had one, it was half that size :P I ate it in one shot @_@;

See? Isn't it good? ;D

[Cowrie]

Haha, yeah. I don't think I could ever get tired of chocolate when it's around. :P

Except for white chocolate...I can't eat too much of that at once or I feel sick.

I'm just trying to save it and not eat it all at once...

[Sana]

I can't either. <3

I don't like white chocolate, period. D: It's nasttttyyyyy.

Ah, doesn't it suck when you don't have that much self-control? D: *shot* XD

[Cowrie]

Yes, it does. :< I can exhert self-control when it comes to most things, but when it comes to some things...I fail. Badly.

*ashamed*

All this forum lag is driving me crazy. @_@

[Sana]

Yeah, it sucks big time. But at least I know I can control myself when it *really* counts.

I know. @_@; I don't get any in the mornings, nyah~nyah
And darnit, there goes what I was doing...

[The Hunk]

Yes, the forum lag last night made me scream once.

Sickness + Forum Lag = ANGRY BRANDON

So how is Cowrie doing today?

[Cowrie]

Eh, I could've been better. I've just been somewhat busy today (printmaking, urgh) or distracted by other things...and it didn't help that my morning started out by having me oversleeping past the beginning of my first class again. o_o;; That's the second time in the past few weeks or so. I know I set my alarm, but either I didn't hear it (I've been getting less sleep than usual lately, so I don't know how deeply I was sleeping), or I turned it off and totally forgot about it.

What fun.

[Sana]

Ouch. Maybe you should go to bed :P *shot* XD Hopefully tomorrow, you can get up at the right time. XD
I never have issues with getting up ._.;

[The Hunk]

Well, you are in my prayers Cowrie. I know how hard sleeping/waking up can be. I only got 3 hours of sleep because of this flu.

[Cowrie]

Yah, I went to bed earlier than usual last night early enough, anyways. I actually got a decent amount of sleep. :P

Well, you are in my prayers Cowrie. I know how hard sleeping/waking up can be. I only got 3 hours of sleep because of this flu.

Ick, I'm sorry. :/ I remember back when I had that cold on Christmas Day, and maybe got like 2 or 3 hours of sleep...I know how rough it can be. @_@

Edit: Heh (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v299/nepryne/haha1337.png) at the amount of views. Whoo, I actually caught it being shown. :P

I couldn't resist.

[The Hunk]

Well, Cowrie, your club is 1337. There is no denying that.

I know I will be in bed early tonight. I have to scrape up enough sleep to function tomorrow.

[Cowrie]

Heh, maybe. I was afraid I'd miss catching that, since I caught it at 1334 views and waited like 45 minutes just for those three extra views. ^_^;; Plus I was in class and also trying to work on several assignments, so...yeah.

Hopefully in a week, I'll have less to worry about...I'm already done with assigments for one class (ceramics), aside from having to present all my work on the very last day of finals.

*debating changing avatar yet again* x_x

[Drummershuff]

Have you decided on changing your avatar then yet? XD

[Cowrie]

It lives! ;o;

Hah, I've sort of decided...the only problem is me actually remembering to change it (or wanting to bother to change it...my activity level here has been a bit spotty lately, sadly enough).

[Sana]

Yay! ^___^

CHANGE YOUR AVATAR! There, now you can't forget. ;D

A bit spotty? tsk tsk... *shot* XD

[Cowrie]

There, I changed it. :P

With a dragon stolen from cropped from a poster of the upcoming Studio Ghibli movie.

Now my avatar and signature don't match up...yet again...

[mewthree w/armor]

How/Are finals going Cowrie. I finished mine on Wed. Some were hell. Yucky. Others were ok.

[Gilgαmesh]

Cowrie's club is finally revived. Thanks for bringing it back to life mewthree.

[Cowrie]

My finals went okay...though they were mainly just critiques of final assignments in various classes. Still, they went fine. I've been home since last Saturday, huzzah.

I seem to be having laptop power supply problems - I had a little panicked situation earlier where I thought my computer was totally dead for now (since I had a low battery and things wouldn't connect right and start charging up), but I got it to work again...and yet now I'm having problems again...

At least my battery's nearly full right now, so I have time to mess around to make it work. :P

[mewthree w/armor]

No death for this topic, only life must ensue. We need to raise money to get Cowrie a new computer.

[Cowrie]

Heh, it is about time to get a new one, I think. Maybe. Almost. As long as I got to keep my old hard drive, and if only computers didn't cost so much...

The activity of this thread saddens me. :(

[mewthree w/armor]

*Poke**Poke**Poke**Poke**Poke**Poke**Poke**Poke**Poke**Poke**Poke*
*Tickle**Tickle**Tickle**Tickle**Tickle**Tickle**Tickle**Tickle**Tickle**Tickle**Tickle**Tickle**Tickle**Tickle*

[Gilgαmesh]

The activity of this thread shall now make you happy with my superduperuberultraultimatepowers!

[The Hunk]

Don't be saddened. I will post her more, Cowrie. I love this club. How are you, Cowrie?

[Cowrie]

Argh ticklepokes. D:

Ah, I'm more or less fine. Sorta bored, sorta not, sorta tired as well...I did try sleeping earlier, but all that happened was that the phone kept ringing. @_@

And now I'm just...doing whatever. O.o

[Gilgαmesh]

Why the boredom Cowrie? Try and go outside and have some fun...unless the weather's bad..:<

Boredom...is a factor in my life sadly. I have to go through it every weekend. I suppose the summer will have to be the same too..

[mewthree w/armor]

/me faints in here. Get a job. Helps not being bored. /me faints here again

[Cowrie]

I found another thing to keep me occupied for now (since I can't exactly get around to many places due to lack of transportation). I've been reading the Chronicles of Narnia ever since earlier this week, since I've been wanting to do so and hey, my sister's not going to read them anytime soon (even though they were a christmas present for her). They might as well get some use out of them.

[Gilgαmesh]

How often does your sister read books anyway Cowrie?

[Cowrie]

How the heck do I miss posts in here...?

Not very often, actually. She claims she "has no time", but I dunno about that sometimes... e_e

[Sana]

Maybe she just doesn't like reading. That's a shame, reading is good for you~

Are they any good? I watched the movie and rather enjoyed it. I would like to read something new over the summer, so maybe I can track down the set or the super!big book of all the books (they had a copy at a bookstore in Kansas) if it's good enough and I get the money. :x

[Cowrie]

I think that's it, actually, as I don't see her jumping up to read things very often.

If you like fantasy books, then I say to get them. :) I've only read three at the moment, but so far they've all been rather enjoyable and easy to read.

[Sana]

Okay, I'll see what I can track down then.

Can you talk with me on MSN? I need some advice D: I feel terrible right now. ;_;

[mewthree w/armor]

*pokes* Hows your summer going cowrie
