Man, it really has hasen't it

?
I've sort of neglected my page really, since I haven't posted anything exciting for a while or updated my journal for who knows how long <___<". I've been sorely occupied with school, the IB is treating me fairly thus far but I'm afraid that wont last for much longer... I've also started playing softball again, so thats giving me even less time each week, hurray

!!
Well, besides the above, the main reasons as to why I haven't posted much, and why the last piece of work was traditional and not digital, are:
1. I lost the pen to my Bamboo tablet ^-^" quite embarrassing, I know... But I've been snooping around the internet and have found a replacement!! Buuuut I haven't ordered it yet since its actually quite expensive o__o quite literally I could order a new 3rd generation Wacom pad on amazon for double the price of one replacement pen for 2nd gen -.-". So now I'm sort of debating whether to get a new one altogether or just get a replacement pen... Any suggestions? Should I get a new pen or a new pad :/?
2. I've simply run out of ideas

...
All my ideas have simply stopped flowing, I just dont know what to draw anymore D: its pretty scary

... I put requests are open in the title since, well, I need something to draw >.<!! I'm sure not many will jump at the opportunity, but hey, it's worth a shot right ^^"? If anyone does want a request (please, please, please!!) be warned that until I decide whether to get a pen or a new pad altogether, that the work will be traditional. Aaaaand it might take a while to do given what little time I have for myself... In any case, if you want one just send me a message...
Well, that mostly sums up a lot of what I've been up to as of late. For Christmas I got my beloved and wonderful and magical and spectacular PS3 >w<!! I've only managed to get through Skyrim and the first Assassin's Creed, so I have a long way to go <__<" but currently I'm working on getting past the Ezio trilogy since I have them all on one disk ^^!
At one point I'm planning on trying out the Uncharted series. For anyone who's familiar with the game, would they suggest I go through the first and second before I try the newest one, or is the third just sufficient enough?... I could really use your help here

xD!
I'm also very much in love with the book series The Kingkiller Chronicles by Patrick Rothfuss, and am desperately awaiting the third book though I'm quite sure it wont come out for another couple of years T____T...
Enough of my rambling then! I hope to have some helpful advice and maybe a few requests in the near future
