I got my laptop back! But gah, its weird... I cant write apostrophs or stars, and the repair people deleted all my pictures from Vietnam.. sad And I forgot my electricity chord thing at my parents house, so I only have about 20 minutes...
Thank you Jewel!! When I have the time to draw I love OCs. Gaia has many interesting items, but you can only do them that many times before they become.... well... But yeah, Ill try the character map next time Im only writing a few sentences!
Mary: Thanks! I want to learn more Vietnamese, but I dont think I could do it in any other country, you need to hear it every day to get anything. Global Understanding is a part of the international development studies. It seems very free so far, Ive already finished half of my lectures (we have 6 in six months!!), and I have to do one big project that has to have something to do with anything involving politics andor anything to do with the environment, war or the general future of humankind and the planet. Which is open enough to me, Im thinking about doing mine on HaitiVenezuela, and going down there for a month in May to write.
My Vietnamese name is Lan. My best friend in Vietnam gave it to me because they couldnt pronounce my Norwegian name (her name is Hien too, Jewel)...
Henada; Original avatars are always good! Other than that they just have to appeal to me in some way, i.e. have an interesting colour scheme, or include itemsinvite postures or moods I have decided I need to practice or just feel like drawing. 3nodding Aand Im honestly not a big Gaia hat fan, they always look too cartoony when I try to draw them.
Trialis: ::shuffles out of cave with her elk::
Actually, Norway and Canada seem very similar, at least biologically and climatewise. Argh, viking heritage.. wink
Patrick: I will get right to it as soon as i can, but I think my battery is dying now... gonk

Take your time, take your time.
I mean, it'll be there later, right? >_>
Sorry about your pictures, though. Did you save them on a memory card, or did you not?

@Orielle: You're welcome! o3o~ Lol, that's true. xD Having the same items done over and over again isn't that original no more... PX
Lan, that's a nice simple name! xD (Yes, a lot of people have my name. PX Bt then I have two parts to it. xD Believe it or not I couldn't write out the first part of my name when I was young. I used to write it like "Phoung" instead of "Phuong". It took awhile till my parents spot it out and was all, that's not right! )
What is your Norwegian name? =O

Nope, no back/ups.. sweatdrop But at least a lot of friends from Vietnam have promised to e-mail me their photos.
My Norwegian name is Elna. My international name is Elena, and my Chinese name is Yí Qín. I can't really write it in Chinese characters though.. whee

Wow, it sounds like you are having an awful computer trouble. sad
I don't know any good places to download PS for the Mac. I'm sorry I'm no help in that respect.
But I do hope you find the CD for your tablet and a place to download Photoshop.

 ۞ ۞ + + Jewel Angel + + - stuck up - hurm xD i must say i avent met m,any stuck up kids but a lot of violent ones [ ophysically and verbally ] apparently english high school; girls are meant to be one of the most aggressive out there - i really dislike the kids in england they have little to no respect for others... and i think its got something to do with the disipline system here. Kids are given too much and they can be dangerious as teachers arnt given enough power over them D: if things carry on .. it wont be pretty - i like england in some respects but others i just want to move to somewhere sane !! XD not that im saying teachers should beat the kids but yeah - they need some sort of ..thing D: my head is so jelly full and Ori wahh i know what thats like loosing files is so depressing D: i hope you can get some photos backfrom friends and such C: <3333 and your tablet - what make is it? I know ive totally lost my CD but i went to the official wacom site and that had drivers that i could download i would try googling the make and such and try to find the official site then mayhap there will be drivers? <333 9 times out of 10 there will be C: <333

Yep, I found a free driver on the wacom site, and I found a version of photoshop that works! (the first photoshop for mac I downloaded was saved in a format that can only be opened on windows, go figure...) So now I am drawing again. mrgreen
Kids in Norway are starting to become the same way, our school are appearantly have some of the poorest results in Europe, in spite of the fact that we are one of the countries that spend the most per student.. Now there's one school were live that is testing out an English method, where the teacher carries around a device that makes clicking sounds every time a student does something good.. Ok, I can understand the concept, that students are awarded with attention when they do something right in stead of just when they're misbehaving, but still........ Seems a bit stupid to me. ninja

D: It is interesting how it's quite different from place to place. I would love to travel for my studies but then my mom is freaking out that I'll get sick in another country and die. >o>;;

I'm not Chinese, but two years ago I travelled on the Chinese east coast for about a month. And no one could pronounce Elna or Elena, so a friend in Shanghai gave me a Chinese name. I really like it though, supposedly it means beutiful piano. whee But I think the characters it's made up of are quite uncommon, at least I wasn't able to find them in my dictionary.
I'm not sure about what I would do if I couldn't travel, I always get extremely sick of Norway if I stay here for more than six months at a time.. xp So I spend pretty much all my money and free time travelling, and I try to do as much of my studes abroad as I can.

Right now I'm studying in Norway. Lack of money. gonk
But I just got back from Vietnam some weeks ago, after studying there for half a year. And the course I'm doing now is based mostly on independent studying, I don't actually have to show up at school until April, so I'm hoping I'll at least get to spend a month somewhere else than here.
I'm studying Development and Global Understanding. xp It is very interesting though, the course is a mixture of history, geography, anthropology, sociology and economics.
I don't know, Sui.. If I ever get a kid I will be a total nazi mom, there's now way heshe would ever get away with those things.
I look forward to seeing your non-lineart works! I like your style as it is, but realisticish paintings are really fun to do.. mrgreen
