Okay first cool thing: I got my Learner's Permit! I am TERRIFIED to drive! :'D

I'm so full of fandom pump lately. With the Mass Effect 3 demo out and TCW season 4 coming to a close, I'm scrambling around in a mingled bliss. This is a good thing, I guess. Keeps me busy and happy and helps me fill up papers with practice sketches easier. (I drew Cad Bane as a Salarian the other day. NO SHAME.)

I'm on a week vacation, and I still want to interact more on dA.

Fandom things:
The Mass Effect 3 demo seemed cinematic to me. The animations and graphics have gone through a great improvement for the series (except the lighting is a bit strange imo at some parts…) and the newer designs are striking. Lovin' that causal earth clothing.
Plot-wise? CRYING. I'M CRYING EVERYWHERE, out of panic and nostalgia and sad. Clint Mansell has done great with the soundtrack from what I can hear in the demo. The main theme is hauntingly gorgeous and just a bit melancholy. Fitting.
I was very nervous about ME3 before, but now. Now I am nothing but excited. They've added quite a few ME1 tones to it, and I very much appreciate that.
Speaking of which, I'm attempting a 'complete' Mass Effect playthrough before ME3 comes out. How many fucking planets do I have to explore-? I've played about nine hours of it and haven't even gotten to Feros, Noveria or Liara's Dig Site yet.

And for Star Wars- Darth Maul Darth Maul DarthmaulMaulMaully-mooMaulgothmaul.
Everything is pretty much about him as far as I've seen, news-wise. Reveals, teasers, trailers. Episode I re-release (which I just went to yesterday) and the season 4 finale. I've been pleased with the past few episodes of the show, as well.
Rewatching Episode I really let me examine the good and bad points of it. It's just so nice to look at, though. With all those beautiful costumes and locations, choreography and characters. Then we have Gary-Stu lil' Annie and an abuse of comedy relief that just doesn't work half the time. Also, Young Annie's lines. Argdhshdjsskkd Shut up kid and bring me more Ewan Mcgregor.

I've got to pick up the newest Hellraiser issue, at some point. I miss my pain and pleasure indivisible. Plus I want to know what Kirsty's gonna do and what will happen to Pinhead. I MUST KNOW THIS. I MUST.

And I've realized. I can act how I want online. I don't have to try to stay 'normal' for anyone. I don't have to force intelligence for anyone. I can be as stupid, silly, sentimental and insane as I want in my little corners. Of course I'll want to be polite to people who wander into it, but I really should stop worrying about scaring people off. I should stop worrying about people making fun of me behind my back, too, because as far as I've been informed, people tend to think I'm cool.
Especially in RL, somehow.
