I have two shiny Charizards [Yes, two. One male, one female. The male I got for a normal Slowbro]. I was so happy when I got two shiny Charizards; they're mah favorites. XD I have loads of other shiny Pokemon, like a Zoroark, a Ho-Oh, and a Mew [Not just those.]. Anyhow, glad you like the siggies. :3
But anyway, one random word.
Norbert.
All I have to say.
Edit: I switch signatures too much. >.> XD

I feel incredibly nostalgic. And old.
Holy crow, Titan A.E. You were made in 2000. I loved that movie back then. I still love it. But holy crow. 2000. I feel so old now. And the animation too is so incredibly old. But it still brings back memories of watching that movie. Ha.

I think I'm gonna get a game today with the visa I got for helping train some people. Just not sure what game. I'm thinking a console game.. I can use it as motivation to study, and only allow myself to play after I get so much work done.
Hopefully there'll be something good used, and reasonably cheap (prfer not to spend more than an additional $10). Well, I'll be off to the mall after class, in about 15 minutes

I want to work on my octopus sculpt. I think I will. After I work on requests, that is.

Hehe. Nerd humor.
My binders for school are the kind where you can stick paper in between the binder and the plastic. I usually put a drawing of some sorts there. Well, I've been waiting to actually find the inspiration to draw one, but until then I put a piece of paper that reads, "404 ERROR: Drawing not found."

Good job, Azu. Four, five days on Magistream and you're already in the process of joining an RP. You're either incredibly brilliant or stupid. xD

Someone really needs to invent a reliable dating system. Because that confusing part where you both like eachother but aren't technically together throws me through a loop all the time. It's like "I don't know if you want to be with me as much as I want to be with you" so you're not like really committed to each other. Plus I'm really shy as it is and I don't really trust anyone so I don't want to get my hopes up too soon and think that I'm with someone when I'm not so I don't have to deal with how that feels. But oh well it feels better to have some place to write this down so it's not so confusing for me @_@.

Hmm.. I just learned why EVERYTHING with aspartame has to have it clearly listed on the package. Cause Phenylalanine is a bi-product when you break down aspartame.. and one of the big genetic diseases causes people to not be able to metabolise phenylalanine, which means it can reach toxic levels REALLY fast. So people can get nervous system damage unless they eat a really low phenylalanine diet (we need some, cause it's an essential amino acid.. so that makes it really tricky...)

Wasps can take up to 180 *thousand* times more Radiation then a normal human can, over-lasting even cockroaches that can only take up to about 6.5 thousand more then a human.
...thank you reddit for adding to my wasp fear that much more. ;.;

The genetic disorder is called Phenylketonuria and it causes damage to the brain (but through that it can probably cause damage to other areas of the body like the nerves). We can find Phenylalanine naturally in breast milk of mammals (such as cows milk) and protein sources (soy products, chicken, turkey, fish, peanuts, almonds, avocados, milk, cheese, yogurt, cottage cheese, lima beans, pumpkin seeds, and sesame seeds) so there isnt need if you can avoid aspartame enhanced stuff like diet soft drinks (coke zero) and diet sugars like splenda. The disease renders the body unable to break the acids down to Tyrosine, but tyrosine can also be aquired through supplements (not sure if it is an alternate source for those who cant be treated, you'd have to talk to a doctor for sure). Its important to catch it early cause there is no cure and treatment requires a lot of medical supervision, strict diet, and cognitive development. If you are diagnosed, (you'd have to consult a doctor about what to do to ensure long term health against the disease), you need to follow a strict diet for pretty much the rest of your life if you want a normal and mentally healthy existence.
Phenylalanine apperently is a pain killer and and an antidepressent too o_O i think i learned the secret to why mcdonals is so addictive..
I compiled this from a few pages on wikipedia, i was really curious cause my stepdad drinks an ungodly amount of this stuff and while yes hes 63 and has worked with heavy machinery and prolonged contact with vibrations almost every day of his entire adult life, even now he does, which has done quite a number to his nerves and brain, ive been curious as to know why people say aspartame is so bad for you but i am very poor in science, cept biology but i didnt learn human biology so i never looked it up. I did copy/paste some stuff but typed my own descript in most
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenylalanine
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenylketonuria
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyrosine
And daaaaymn Mych o.o;; thats scary.. im terrified of wasps too after i saw a friend get stung once when i was a wee little girl

Actually, look up the related mythbusters episode. They get various bugs and throw them inside some MASSIVE radiation chamber. I can't remember which bug that they tested came out on top.. but definitely wasn't cockroaches...

While mentioning to the guy my room mate tried to set me up with that I'm trying to come up with an epic name for my sword in Fable 3... He mentions I should pick a weapon name from WoW. I mention that I don't wanna use a premade name, or I'd just take one from Way of Kings, or Wheel of Time... to which he says "Those are books, right?" ... *facepalm* I don't care if you've read them or not.. you should know they're books at the LEAST.. I dunno, maybe I take being exposed to WoT since like.. grade 6 for granted, but if you've ever read any fantasy in the last 10 years or so, chances are you've seen it mentioned SOMEWHERE.. Just another thing that makes me go "yeah... No...."
maybe that's just me being a bit over the top.. but really.. I mean.. worse case he doesn't know they're books and googles <.< then he doesn't seem like he's never opened a book for recreational purposes.. (okay.. over exaggeration, but, if someone mentioned a book I hadn't read/heard of, I'd say something along the lines of "ahh, I haven't read those ones" or something.. not "Oh, that's a book right?")

Cooking is fun! Funny how maybe.. 3 or 4 years ago I couldn't really cook ANYTHING without constant supervision (well.. a few exceptions, but yeah... I could try, but something would usually go wrong), and now I'm experimenting a lot! Just made a pasta sauce complete from scratch.. with whole tomatoes and everything. And FOUR different kinds of mushrooms. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm mushrooms.
