Wallpaper Ideas!

syrusdraco@gmail.com — Wed, 09 Apr 2008 14:49:11 GMT

Just making a quick post about this. I've been thinking of commissioning a wallpaper or two for my laptop and PS3, both wide screen dimensions of 1024 x 768 (I think that's right). As things were, I wanted to hear if anyone has any ideas or artists in mind.

For my laptop I want to have a wallpaper of myself and Charizard together. (BIG surprise I know :p) I'm not looking for anything extreme or explicit either, or something... kinda cute I guess, would be best to describe. Something simple yet fresh and knew that puts a smile on ;] I have an idea or two, but I want to see if anyone else can think of anything. You people know my fair enough, so if you can think of a nice match up between me and Charizard that you would like to see or think that would look perfect let me know ;] As far as an artist, I have one in mind already to work on this commission, but pending if I like another person's idea I'll hit some research on others.

As for the PS3, this one I want to be a challenge. Since the PS3 makes art pieces look incredible on a HD screen, I wanna blow this one up to be astounding. Currently I have this piece as my wallpaper and it looks hauntingly beautiful. Moving on, I want to place the next piece of my dragon in an environment like this, and make things look really out there. I have an artist or so in mind for this project though I need to see if she's available, and at the same time find other artists of high calibur that would like to take up such a thing. So if anyone has any ideas as far as using that background, or an artist in mind, let me know ;]

When people get pumped...

Woooooooow!

Friday I saw the Star Wars Holiday Special on Riif Trax.... it was MAGICAL!

You just can't describe the magic that goes on during the whole thing. You need to see it for yourself.

Alternative Madness: Twisted Fire (Pt. 1)

syrusdraco@gmail.com — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 01:39:34 GMT

So for awhile I've been on a bit of a music hit and I wanted spread my mind on some more music. I've been listening to this album quite awhile of 30 Seconds to Mars. I have both of their current albums and each album has it's own style. In this self-titled album, they have this awesome alternative rock that has some fierce fire, fierce ice, and a mix of (and no better way for me to think of describing it) psychedelic electronic touches.

Their second album I really like, though the style change is obvious and more mainstream (one would say "emo" as well but that's such a bad and misused word in today :P ) which I don't mind. There is more emotion and such in these songs, and some have more fire which is also great. But here, I'll provide a video or two of these guys:

From Yesterday Music Video

Attack Music Video [The song is great to the video is a bit meh to me]

Buddha for Mary Song [I just love how crazy this song is]
Oblivion Song [Also crazy and just makes one fly]

Well since then I've been curious as to what other artists would ring similar to 30 Seconds to Mars. Granted I've listened to alternative rock radio stations now and again and I've made a list of what songs I liked and what bands I need to research and listen more too ya know. Well I went to Yahoo Music and used their feature of "Similar Artists" and it rang up a number of artists who I was originally curious about. On a similar note, I was directed to SIXX AM, and here's a video to go along with it:

Further on is this video from the Foo Fighters. It's craaazy awesome:

That is one thing the Foo Fighters know how to do. Make songs that are just a complete giant rush.

Well to end things, I'd like to hear from you guys. Since being on this music kick I want to keep it up and grab me some albums. I am really keen in looking for artists that have a similar sound to 30 Seconds to Mar's Buddha for Mary and Oblivion. Later on I'll want to grab other artists from the music I just shared with you guys. Toss me some mainstream and some underground guys, and even if they aren't similar to these named artists but you think I might like them, toss them any how.

Normal Things

syrusdraco@gmail.com — Sun, 23 Mar 2008 05:45:46 GMT

Nothing new and crazy lately. I took little Syrus to the vet today for his annul check up. Aside from him being a little chubby he's got a clean bill of health which I am very happy to hear. I'm glad to know my family takes good care of him, they just need to walk him a bit more often ;p I got my tax refund, hurray. I'll have my laptop paid off and if there is any left, I'll either toss it for AC or just bills n such, though I will give myself a small treat at the least. The family is doing well, and my sister has done some amazing art that she has shown me, all from her first art class. I think I may want to hit up this art class next semester, just need to sign up for this college.

And by the way, just wanna say thanks to you guys giving me support. I know I haven't been myself all too late but things will come around, so thanks.

Puppy Spirit

syrusdraco@gmail.com — Sun, 16 Mar 2008 04:26:23 GMT

Stuff like this is just COMPLETELY HEART BREAKING For me anyways

So young and hurt, yet so amazingly spirited. It's these kind of things that just make me look at huskies (and dogs in general) and just simply melts my heart that they still have the will to live despite how terrible they have it. Now if only humans can be the same.

This poor thing. I really wish I had all the damn time possible enough money possible to save these poor things. Though I don't have any direct connection with this pup, it hurts me so much to see something like this happen to a husky, and irks me greatly and things like this happen to such good dogs.

Party Suggestions?

syrusdraco@gmail.com — Sat, 15 Mar 2008 10:40:38 GMT

Gone in Fresno for the weekend with my good buddies. Wanted to throw out a quick question before I become unreachable for the weekend. Yeah forgot to pack my phone charger and the battery is nearly dead. *head to desk*

Anyways I think I'm going to host the next party this next weekend, and of course it will be a Smash Brawl party as highly expected. That said though, I want to know what other party food choices people can recommend or would like to see. I mean pizza is good and all for a large group, but I don't want to serve pizza at every party ya know. Anyways comment away, and hope everyone has a good weekend.

Been awhile since I posted any little Syrus pics. Not much but here's the silly little puppybutt.

Brawl on Horizon

syrusdraco@gmail.com — Fri, 07 Mar 2008 19:55:40 GMT

With Smash Bros Brawl coming up this weekend I thought I'd post my pictures of the past tournament I went to. It was held inside a club and sponsered by Best Buy. It was crazy and we had to get there a few hours early since only the first 256 people were allowed in the tournament. Made and got knocked out on the 2nd round, was a very tough fight though. This Saturday I'll be hitting the Gamestop tournament for Brawl just for fun. Going to be very lame and stupid having us use the Wiimotes as controllers for a fighting game but not much you can do :p It'll give me something to do while I wait to pick up my copy at the midnight release of the game :D

Santa Cruz Visit

syrusdraco@gmail.com — Thu, 06 Mar 2008 16:56:57 GMT

So last weekend was pretty mellow and relaxing. Saturday I went down to Santa Cruz with basilbadger and krominof, mainly hitting the boardwalk, arcade, and a few shops in the downtown. The thing that I like about the Boardwalk is that it never changes. Visited the place was fun because just about everything a nice retro 80s feel to it. The art, the music (though there was some modern day music), even a lot of the games in the arcade were retro, was awesome. Not to mention it is simply cool to have a carnival like amusement boardwalk right next to the beach, and Santa Cruz just has a nice spirited feeling to it. Anyways, on to the pictures behind the cut...

We hope to go again some time and visit the nature bridges. If so I'll be bringing along little Syrus for the trip ;]

=D !!!

Weekend Success~!

syrusdraco@gmail.com — Mon, 25 Feb 2008 07:05:33 GMT

Well gotta say this weekend turned out to be great! Sage and Tenebris were out on vacation hitting the east coast so me and Hunter had the place to ourselves. This week was a party week, so I took it up to host the party. I was a little skeptical if anyone was going to show up since Sage wasn't hosting aside from the small handful of party regulars, but the turn out was bigger than expected and great. Hunter helped in setting up the place, I got the music ready and set it to a nice alternative rock station that was playing a nice variety of music. Got the lights set up, entertainment station ready, all systems go.

Furs came in and brought in some food to help out which was great, as I didn't have enough cash on hand to order more food that I wanted for the party doing it on the fly. They also complimented how they liked that they weren't shouting over the music like previous parties, and how the music was this weird zany mixes that Sage has. Maybe for future parties I'll take over the music department :p Aside from that, I got to embarrass basilbadger for his birthday by announcing it to everyone. There after we got the good stuff going and set up Smash Bros Brawl. Had lots of fun with it naturally, so great to be Pokemon Trainer and play as Charizard ;] The party held up to like 4 AM and a little after.

Woke up early as there was a Smash Bros Brawl tournament being held in the city sponsored by Best Buy. Few of us went to compete and it was a ton of waiting but worth it for the fun. The three of us got knocked out on the 2nd round but we all put up one hell of a fight. Fun stuff. Of course we got tiny prizes just for competing. After that I joined up with some of the guys over at Guppy's place for his birthday, then crashed with Basil for the night. Was pretty drained after all that craziness, but all fun indeed.

Gotta say I would like to put more money to these parties, as in getting actually bedding for our guests, good party music, lights, etc. Maybe that will come when I settle in to a more permanent place ;]

So what's been going on...?

syrusdraco@gmail.com — Thu, 21 Feb 2008 05:24:41 GMT

Hmm, whole lot of nothing, whole lot of thinking. We'll be having our bi-weekly party this week, though since Sage will be out of town me and gryphon will be hosting it this time. Eew I have to chunk out money for food :p Funny thing is, even when there is no party announced we still have a few regulars show up any how. So there's that. Talked to mom and she said little Syrus was so tired out from the walk, he mostly lazed out in bed. Wish I was with him to hug and cuddle him while he laid in bed. I miss having him so.

Anyways. Guess I'm just posting for the sake of posting and updating. There are things a plenty on my mind, but as normal, I'm too chicken to talk about it :p It really is one of those things where I don't have many to talk to, if anyone at all. But oh well. Time will help me figure things out I suppose ya know. Anyways, I leave you with this:

You've seen it everywhere else! Now it be here!

Oh and by the way, happy birthday to quentinwolf. Hope you have a good one ;]

Some Link Fun

syrusdraco@gmail.com — Tue, 12 Feb 2008 01:43:32 GMT

Well this looks to be cute. While Pixar is working on Wall-E, Disney has gone on their own project called Bolt featuring a white German shepherd puppy. He's so cute~

Another is this. Academy Award-Winning movie Crash is going to have their own mini-series. This is pretty cool news as it opens up several of windows. For one Crash had a nice variety of characters and stories that weaved in an out of each other, so the potential of great story telling is very much there. The movie was a strong so seeing the drama that unravels between the characters should be something very interesting. The only unfortunate thing is that it is going to air on Starz which we don't have :p Guess I'll have to torrent it.

And lastly, this is why you don't get your dog take out in the car ;]

Champions of the World!!!

syrusdraco@gmail.com — Mon, 11 Feb 2008 04:42:19 GMT

At our party this past Friday we got to play Smash Bros. Brawl. Playing as the Pokemon Trainer was the best and I got to fight as Charizard :D!!!!! So awesome and sexy!
Me and hgryphon took on the big Rock Band Challenge and we did the Endless Setlist, which was composed of all 58 songs that came on the game disc. We beat it! Our reward was a bunch of money and Gold Medals on our names proving that we are Rock n' Roll stars! :D (my hands are aching and hurt!)

*falls down exhausted and tired*

HELP! URGENT FOSTER HOMES NEEDED FOR 8 MALAMUTE/WOLF DOGS - EUREKA, CALIFORNIA

syrusdraco@gmail.com — Thu, 07 Feb 2008 23:48:38 GMT

http://javachickn.livejournal.com/404619.html

X-Posting this from javachickn's LJ. A number of malamute/wolf mixes are in danger of being euthanized. Spread the word best you can, these pups need a foster home! I want to try my very best to see if it is at all possible to take in one of these amazing creatures. If so chances are I'll be staying with my parent's for awhile, but I hate to see such amazing dogs go out. It's a stretch but I have a strong urge to contribute to finding these pups good homes. If any of you know anyone that can pitch in, send them the word! More details are in Java's post linked above.

What Book Am I?

You're The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe!

by C.S. Lewis

You were just looking for some decent clothes when everything changed
quite dramatically. For the better or for the worse, it is still hard to tell. Now it
seems like winter will never end and you feel cursed. Soon there will be an epic
struggle between two forces in your life and you are very concerned about a betrayal
that could turn the balance. If this makes it sound like you're re-enacting Christian
theological events, that may or may not be coincidence. When in doubt, put your trust
in zoo animals.

Who would have thought :p

Weekend Away

syrusdraco@gmail.com — Mon, 04 Feb 2008 15:06:45 GMT

Went off to Fresno for the weekend to celebrate WolfBlade's birthday. I enjoyed the long drive, around three hours or so, with nothing but the stretch of road and tunes playing in the car. This shot right here is just a small portion of what I could get of the golden hills that simply make California an interesting place to be in. Imagine being able to travel and run through that.

Anyways funs times were had, the usual crew was there. Watched various things, played a few games, had cake (it was chocolate and peanut buttercup!) Caught up with some of my Fresno friends, and just nice to see some faces that I don't get to too often. Wish these guys lived in the bay so we could hang out more often, but either way we make our time together great.

Some Birthday Wishes

syrusdraco@gmail.com — Fri, 01 Feb 2008 17:42:06 GMT

FC 08: Rise and Fall Dragon

syrusdraco@gmail.com — Wed, 30 Jan 2008 07:09:34 GMT

*The dragon crawls into his bed with his laptop and blows his snout with a tissue tossing it in the trash*

As I write this, I can only think of the latest episode of Avatar, when Ang and Zuko perform the Dragon Dance and during so, the two dragon move along with their movements up and down. This con was much like that in a way.

So my 3rd con passes by *sniffs* Going to keep this short since I'm sure everyone else has had their fill of con reports. Anyways the con went by fine. It could have been better, but it was fine. Had fun times, not so fun times but nothing drastic or dramatic. Just a matter of being sick and having a lack of energy to do many things that I wanted to do. I didn't go to any of the dances, or to any of the parties, nothing crazy. Had a nice time at the Dealer's Den passing around my sketch book, got some nice sketches which I'll have to scan at some point. Even a surprise sketch. I left my book with an otter friend and his roommate (or friend) liked how much detail there was on my character and drew him. I'll have to get in contact with him. Had some nice finds. I wanted to grab some literature but my mind was more focused on the arts this con around. Got some nice badges, need to scan those too.

Gotta say thanks for everyone who's been great with me, cheering me up from all the stupid drama left back home. And thank you to everyone who came up and met me, and to those that were kind when I made the approach as well. Met a lot of LJ, FA, and general fur friends. Unfortunately I was still very much nervous so I couldn't hold a conversation with anyone, if only but a handful. Ugh.. *sniffs* Need to work on that ya know. Not to mention a few other furs who I wanted to meet and just too damn nervous. But anyways, thanks to many furs that were cool with me this year. Made a much better FC than the last. Was kinda sad that I couldn't sit through FNL because I really enjoy the variety show, but I felt drained and sick and had to skip out early. Figure I might catch the rest on YouTube or something.

Well that's it. This con was a balance of fun and a bit of.. "down-ness" though it was fun over all for the most part. Just being sick did not help ya know. But whatever. *scratches his muzzle and sniffs* Unfortunately due to some of the last minute shit hitting the fan, I wont be able to make my Maryland trip like I had planned and hoped. Oh well. AC will be next, and if anything, there might be a slight chance to have an extended vacation over there. We'll see. Thanks everyone~ *sniffs and wraps himself in blankets going to bed*

syrusdraco@gmail.com — Tue, 22 Jan 2008 14:55:27 GMT

Dammit dammit dammit dammit dammit dammit dammit dammit!!!

... Woke up with phlem in my throat and nose, and a little bit of increased temperature.

I don't want to be sick. Two days before FC! Bad time! *applies head to desk*
