My one professor for computer program, comes down to the class and says, "how many ppl are 18 and over?" so people raise their hand, then he goes "are you registered to vote? be sure to vote, if the country fights another war, the military cant do it, you know what they're gunna do, they'll make a draft!"
so I reply "anybody but Hillary" and he goes, "but they'll draft you,"and i'm like, "I don't care, my cousin and my uncle are in the air force, I'll join them if I have to" and he just gave me a dirty look.
Now weather or not you believe in me and my views is NOT the issue, the issue I find is, I wish professors wouldn't blab about their own political opinions in class, you're dealing with an environment where some are in the middle, and others wont care, but it makes a problem for those who might disagree with the professors views, they may not want to say anything since the professor is in a position of authority in the class.
Surprisingly though, the guy I had for American history last year was politically neutral, he taught the facts, not his opinion, I've heard stories of history professors not teaching history, but teaching their own warped, opinionated views on world history, bashing Christianity, and America, and just trying to preach their views on their students, many freshman who are just beginning to find themselves and form their own opinions on the world around them. TEACH!! NOT PREACH!!

Mystic Fox Next Gen Open!
The month long next gen improvements are complete! If you have been watching my gallery, you will notice the updated looks of all the characters, while the designs arent really new, they are back at a time before they were corrupted by overdesigning and too many changes. The coloring, I have found new techniques to make teh shading softer and more lifelike, plus I am taking better care in the linework as well to make it look smoother. Another new thing, is now the pictures are scanned in 300dpi resolution, rather than 200dpi, which also allows for higher quality.
I cant believe another year has gone by, and we are up to 2008. Who knows of all the improvements and new techniques and skills I will learn in my work next year. Its all so very exciting. I thank you all for your continued support of my artwork, its great to know that people like my work, and you find my characters cute n stuff =3
As for my personal life, Ive been sleeping much better, I had a strange dream last nite though, I was paddeling thru a river in a forest, after being in a car for what it seemed like forever.
Yesterday I did an oil change on my car, its second one since I got it. I ordered the all weather floor mats from Toyota for it, since I dont want to ruin my regular carpeted floor mats with the winter mess, and these pep boys rubber mats i have in look ugly. I also bought an exhaust tip from Toyota, its a simple installation. Im no ricer or blinger, I only put toyota accessories in my Corolla, and I sure as hell aint wasting money on oversized chrome alloy wheels.

other species in the mix as alternate forms.

J12 Aurora Vera
J14 Marie Renarde
Plus new contracts for newer secondary characters. Char J10 Jon Lupus has his new style already debuited,

A new unified storyline with a distinct plot and objective, instead of the patchwork of plots and themes just slapped together.
(3) Improved Artistic Quality
Using new coloring and drawing methods, to create more captivating pictures, using more emotions and themeings, using more thought provoking stuff.
