Oh, that's the Cyrillic Millions Sign. I can't actually make it because I'm a fucktard when it comes to unicode, but I bookmarked this page so that if the need ever arises I have it handy. :P If you're familiar with unicode, I think it's U+0489.
But...it was an explosion of RAW AWESOME. ;_;

Yeah, I did. I didn't expend any effort on it though...I could probably make a better version. I'll try =)
Edit:
Spoiler: comic and BONUS PICTURE! 
(Oh, and regarding the x-ing out of a completed post- yuck. My sister once stayed up 'til an hour before she needed to wake up making a 3-D model for Interior Design [she overachieves on subjects she likes, and on the ones she doesn't...well.] and she x-ed out of ALL of it. It had taken around three or four hours.)
Oh, and it's good you did well on your exams! =D
(Ack, that wallpaper is wonderful.
Remember that inferiority complex I mentioned earlier? Well...you're not making it better, shall we say...)And another side note! Because I hate upside-down notes, you know...*lame pun*
I wrote a poem recently. Right, because that's big news *seeing as I'm the type of person who constantly composes a poem about what they are doing at that moment...* In case any of you fine people want to read it, here it is. It's pretty long, so I'll spoiler it. Incidentally, the non-capitalization is stylistic...
Spoiler: how aging changes things
Anyways. I just like all kinds of poetry. Any of you have random things they want to share? Or am I just a weirdie? (Not that that hasn't already been established...)

Glad you did well on your exams. That psychology of language course you mentioned in an earlier post sounds fascinating. I'm currently taking Old English, and It's almost like learning another language...you realize how much meaning English has lost in some ways.
Haha, yeah. I remember learning Shakespeare in high school and going "@__@" at some of the phrases. It's also interesting how languages evolve over time.
For my exam, I studied why animals cannot learn all features of human language (very interesting), why there is evidence for why language may be somewhat innate for humans (interesting!), and how it's amazing how children could possibly learn language (esp. labels for objects) because it's easy to generalize or difficult to specify.
Example: You may point to a dog, and call it a "dog," but what's the definition of a dog? 4 legs doesn't cut it, because if a dog was missing a leg, for example, it's still a dog. All dogs don't look the same, either. For adults, it's easier to recognize what characterizes a "dog."
So, it's amazing how children can even begin to understand. :]
Witty: Thanks! I really like that emote, hahah. The only one I know is the ಠ_ಠ which is EVERYWHERE.
I don't think I can input the Unicode .. I don't have a keypad (I have a laptop). D:
But thanks for the link, I'm just gonna use a Word .doc for my strange symbols.

Yes, he is. It was actually an exercise in the book teaching about the negatives. I looked up 'to live' in the Spanish glossary...and, well, you know the rest. Sometimes you just have to make a comic?

That makes me cry a little inside.
I was there watching her. I was just like "...Ashley? Are you aware that you just shut down the entire program...without saving?" Her: "...You know what? I'm just going to finish my poster."

I think I was closer to crying than she was ;_; I had watched all of it, like I said...it was her first time using the program, and so she wasn't very proficient, which is probably why it took longer.

Oh...wow! Thanks! I didn't think anyone would, you know...actually read it. You know, for Nanowrimo this year my entire novella is going to be comprised of poetry (telling a story of course), because last year I PHAILED. Miserably. A measly 3,147 words. Gosh. But thank you!
I don't read tons of poetry so I don't have much to share D: Maybe someone else will share!
I hope so! I really do love good poetry. It makes me feel all buzzy inside. Like Robert Frost...he was actually funny. =)
For now, a blast from the past--seventh grade, pals. Back when I still loved rhyming quartets. ABAB, d00d.
Yes, I was ranting about underappreciated lemons...literally.
Spoiler: The Tale of the Misunderstood Lemons
I illustrated it and everything. It was a very touchy subject.

Secondly, that course sounds really interesting. It's a shame I don't learn those things at school, really, as I'm very interested in languages (Spanish and English are two of my favourite subjects) and I'm even considering studying Translation.
Witty's sig is wonderful. The composition is good, the colour too. Everything gives it the "feeling" it should have.
bibliomaniac, I must say that I don't read too much poetry, but I like your first poem. It's better than anything I could write.
The second one is a bit weird, it reminds me of Syd Barrett's lyrics...

The only time I wrote good "poetry" was when I won a limerick contest in elementary school once.
The theme was sports/gym, and whoever won got a gift certificate to Baskin Robbins. I won out of 30-50 or so kids! ^__^;
There once was a boy named Scott,
He shot hoops in a parking lot,
He ran and he ran,
Kids thought he was the man,
You should have seen how many points he got!
Ehehe. 6th grade was fun.
Elriel: Yeah, in my high school we never learned anything like the psychology of language or the psychology of prejudice (currently taking that course as well). Glad it's changed. I love my professors, as well. They have years of wisdom and experience under their belt.
Translation is a good choice. Since communication is SO important, we really need more translators who do their job well. I have to deal with Chinese people who don't know a shred of English on weekends... it can get very frustrating.
I was going to become a translator, but my intended career path is probably going to go in a different direction. Still, I'm a China studies minor so I may pursue language study while doing my main job. (Most likely Mandarin ;D)
Thanks re: Witty's sig. I always like experimenting with colors. :B

I had a crappy day at work (just came home). I was about to cry because it was intense and stressful and people were cranky at us (poor counter people) even though it wasn't our fault. (But of course, they can't yell at the chefs, so who do they yell at when they're frustrated? Why, us!)
Your limerick made me smile. I'm going to put that somewhere.. perhaps on my profile or something.
I love it so much!! Thank you for cheering me up :)
Hehehe. I showed it to my boyfriend and he's amused too. :D
Just now, from him: "thats a freakin awesome limerick"
I'm happy nao :B
Jenna: Yay I'm glad you like it! I tried to make it classy and textured :D Good luck on the fanfiction!

If it's hilarious listening to you speak Spanish, then imagine how awful it is with me speaking French and multiply that by a factor of 100. I can pronounce Latin and Spanish, and that's it.

Oh, pshhh. You're not a nerd until you bring an extra Biology book to school (don't ask why I have it, it's nerdy in itself) as well as a book that's Latin with English translation. Which...I do. Languages aren't nerdy! THEY'RE AWESOME!

Yeah. It's really awful how that is...reading outside of class is awesome.
There's a kid in my English class--and it's Honors, mind you, which makes it even worse--who basically says things like this...
"Yeah. You know that essay we had to write at the beginning of school on a book we've read? Well, I just did Harry Potter, even though I haven't read the books. I've seen the movies, though, so it's okay, right?"
On another occasion:
"I think the longest book I've ever held was the Harry Potter book. And I only held it."
Argh.

...Whoop! (I used to take Japanese, too. I've technically taken Spanish, French, Japanese, and Latin/Greek...it's a long story, but I assure you I learned nothing from my language studies in preschool through third grade.
SO, guess what I've spent all day doing?
That's right! I'm making a Phoenix Wright case on Ace Attorney Online! It's fun...but exhausting. Took me forever to do the cross examination. And I'm only around 1/6th done

No! You can't have fun with days of the week! ... Of course you can. ;] It was a misinterpretation on my part, my apologies.
That kid in your Honors class is.. special. I also find it annoying when people think watching the movie = reading the book. >__<;
Quote:
"I think the longest book I've ever held was the Harry Potter book. And I only held it."
Hahahaha.
It's like what they say.. "I read the book from cover to cover.. only the front and the back cover."
That's quite a .. diverse language education, there. Yeah, it's tough to retain the information if you're
1. not that motivated to learn (i.e. my experiences in Chinese school in 6th grade)
2. don't get enough chances to continue practicing the language (i.e. if you're taking Greek, you're gonna have to keep working at it if you want to remember most of it. I lost almost all knowledge of French. XD)
That sounds really interesting, Biblio. Sure, post the link, I (and probably others) would be interested in seeing the finished product. :)
Elriel: Your parents are silly in that respect. I only wish I had a handy translator around when I interacted with certain people. Language barriers are so frustrating. If you knew Spanish/English you would have certainly almost NO PROBLEMS finding a job, (I know you don't live in the United States but as an example...) especially in the United States. In many businesses right now, being able to speak Spanish is such a big plus on a resume.
Language is very important, because communication is very important. *nod*
Thanks for the comments re: the banner. :) I like the white lines too, haha.
Witty: Kudos to you for taking Latin! Yeah, you'll have a neat advantage if you have to take any verbal section of a standardized exam because you'll be familiar with the roots and all. :)
Haha.. have fun with Caesar. *pats back*
And thanks! Yeah seriously, request whenever you want. My workload's calm right now, and ATM I have no current requests in this thread. :)
ProsecutorBC: You really should look into them. I'm having a fun time, and I haven't even played that much. I heard there are many, many lessons and stuff. It also makes it less of a chore to learn language because it has games (multiple choice, word searches, etc.). At least it tries to not be so tedious.
Jenna: I recommend it. :D Of course, it's $30 for a language game, but I think it's fun and worthwhile. I'm fascinated by language, so if you are too, I say go for it. Those people who rather play a real game than buy a language-oriented program/game should look elsewhere.
I can understand basic conversational Chinese, that's about it. I really need to expand my language abilities. >__<;

Witty: Kudos to you for taking Latin! Yeah, you'll have a neat advantage if you have to take any verbal section of a standardized exam because you'll be familiar with the roots and all. :)
Haha.. have fun with Caesar. *pats back*
And thanks! Yeah seriously, request whenever you want. My workload's calm right now, and ATM I have no current requests in this thread. :)

Maybe I'm going crazy, but I saw these two on the last queue, I'm not sure if you're done with them?

Yeah, you probably did but I'm just blind.
And yeah, I love etymology! Roots and prefixes and suffixes...I honestly can't get enough of it. I'm a word lover, what can I say? :P And Caesar...oh god, I'm dreading it. But I don't have to worry about that for another two years, so I'm good for the time being.
But right now I'm satisfied with that OMGWIN banner you made, and I haven't been writing anything lately so I'll just stick around for a while.

You can trust me to not forget orders, especially when I've typed them out in previous posts. :]
(I've been doing this waitlist thing for years and know from experience to make sure I have nothing left in queue x__x)
Haha, ok. You can request anytime. ;]
Oh, 2 years. Not bad. You can prep your brain before the moment of truth approaches.
Cool; so in college, will you major in linguistics?

Oh, that's good! :'D I'll know for the future.
And translating it is a group project, according to my junior friend; I think you work with four other people and compare your translations with other people.
I'm really not intending on linguistics, actually; I'm probably going for World Literature. ;D

Haha, I love Dead Rising. I only saw like 15 minutes of gameplay, but being able to drive in that tunnel and run over countless numbers of zombies ... awesome. :D
Witty: Sure thing. I haven't made any political banners before so I'm hoping I can make a fairly decent one. ;D

Oh god, I made that request at midnight on impulse, I forgot to say banner~~XD I'm still going to keep my current one because it's ZOMGWTFAMAZING, but since we've only got a month left before the moment of truth I figure that I need to do some major Obama pimping.

No! You can't have fun with days of the week! ...
Of course you can. ;] It was a misinterpretation on my part, my apologies.
No worries. It wasn't very clear on my side anyways =)
That kid in your Honors class is.. special.
Actually, what scares me is that she's kind of average in that respect.
I also find it annoying when people think watching the movie = reading the book. >__<;
Oh, she knew there was a difference, she just didn't care.
Quote:
"I think the longest book I've ever held was the Harry Potter book. And I only held it."
Hahahaha.
It's like what they say.. "I read the book from cover to cover.. only the front and the back cover."
Indeed ;_;
That's quite a .. diverse language education, there.
My school was odd. Basically, preschool through third grade we learned the languages in thirds--first trimester Spanish, second French, third Japanese or something like that. then, fourth through sixth they taught Latin and Greek. I really love Latin, so it made me really sad when I changed to public school that none of them offered it...but Spanish is my second favorite language, so it's okay.
Yeah, it's tough to retain the information if you're
1. not that motivated to learn (i.e. my experiences in Chinese school in 6th grade)
Right...that's why I didn't like Japanese much =/ It just didn't interest me.
2. don't get enough chances to continue practicing the language (i.e. if you're taking Greek, you're gonna have to keep working at it if you want to remember most of it. I lost almost all knowledge of French. XD)
Exactly. My Latin went poof after I stopped taking it. Also makes me sad.
That sounds really interesting, Biblio. Sure, post the link, I (and probably others) would be interested in seeing the finished product. :)
Great =) I have now completed a whopping three cross-examinations, 380 frames, and I'm around...oh...5/7ths or so done? It's hard to gauge. The case, incidentally, is called Turnabout Art Studio because I'm too lame to think of a better name...and the defense attorney is Polly Justice, s'course, around a year after GS4. Mostly new names (no name puns though, also can be accredited to my lameness) but all old sprites because my sprite editing skills are nonexistent. (I've got some ideas, though...
)Gah. You saying you have virtually no queue makes me want to request something REALLY BADLY. MUST RESIST. *I don't have anything to request except for a wallpaper, see...)

Personally I think that as long as you get paid enough to live off of, and you enjoy what you do, it shouldn't matter all that much. I'm an English/Medieval Studies major looking at teaching, and given the wages teachers are getting here in the states, I'm not looking at a rich lifestyle, but I love the subject so as long as I get to do what I love I think I'll be happy.
You took the words right out of my mouth and said everything I would have said.
Many Chinese parents are notorious for wanting their children to either pursue medicine or business. I didn't want to do either of those and decided to do what *I* wanted to do.
There's uncertainty everywhere. Blindly following parents' aspirations won't lead to happiness; this is your life and you should live it by pursuing whatever you think will make you the happiest.
I wanted to initially major in something art-related, and never did, because I knew that my life would be more uncertain money-wise than I was comfortable with. That's fine, because I'm doing graphic design on the side anyway. However, you always will have those "...what if.." moments.
Anyway, I'm pursuing psychology because I love it. My parents have been negative about it at random times, but I know that medicine or business is not for me. Yourself = first priority.
Balrog: Hahaha, I'm glad. :]
Witty: Well.. I kind of had already finished like 75% of the banner by the time you posted. XD Do you intend on using it as a signature? The one I made is too big for a signature :/ I'll try cropping it but I'm iffy on how it'll look. Let me know first.
Biblio: You can request a wallpaper anytime you want; I trust you to be polite and patient, etc.
That's a nice case concept! "Life after GS4..." sounds promising.
