I haven't written a journal since freakin December 10th?! Um...Merry Late Christmas, Happy Late '09, Happy Late Obama Day, and Happy Almost Chinese New Year! I guess you all don't know yet...but I have officially inhabited the great continent known as Asia, and have sadly left behind my home in North America T-T Very cool, very pretty, very different O.o But you can ask for details if you're really interested

I'm so mad at myself now...I've been so busy with everything that I haven't had time to post any art....mainly because all my paintings are lurking somewhere in a box in the middle of the Pacific Ocean My poor paintings. But my resolution is to upload them immediately once they get here!

Latest obssessions: Cinema Bizarre, The Academy Is..., Landon Pigg, Death Note, Mike Ike's, Yoshinoya, and The Joker.

And here's a random Tokio Hotel survey thingy I found somewhere...

YOU AND TOKIO HOTEL:

How did you hear about Tokio Hotel -- ...omfg I don't remember! But that was a long time ago, and the present is today, so that doesn't matter....

What do your parents think about them -
My dad thinks they suck, and that I'll get over them in a year or two (never! T-T)

Favorite band member –....Bill....(or as me and my friends like to call him, Billeth! )

Why – His voice....meh i can't describe it, but it calms me I guess...his personality (from what ive seen anyway, he seems like an incredible guy),he looks like an anime character, and i could go on forever....he's my little rockstar?! X_X

Favorite song by Tokio Hotel – I like em all, but the German ones are the best, so I'd say Wo Sind Eure Hande

Do you like twincest – NO its disgusting and just wrong...in my opinion anyway...but whats annoying is you read it and the writing is so amazing....until you find out its a freakin twincest -_-

Do you own any Tokio Hotel stuff – 2 shirts, 3 CD's, like a million posters and pics

Do you do anything special when one of the band members has birthday – yeah, my favorite is bill and tom's....i get ice cream with their favorite candy on top...skittles for tom and gummy bears for bill

How many posters? psh, like a million, dont make me count...

Do your friends like Tokio Hotel as well – half of my best friends absolutely love them, some think theyre ok, and a few are waiting for the day when all the guys find out they're gay...-_- (NEVER!!)

What do your classmates think about you liking Tokio Hotel – it depends...most guys think theyre gay, some people couldnt care less, and some wonder if im emo >_>

Do you always watch Tokio Hotel TV on YouTube – duuh they make my wednesdays something to look forward to

Can you look at a picture of Tokio Hotel and immediately tell how old they were at that picture – try me, i dare you

Have you seen the newest Tokio Hotel TV DVD ‘Caught on Camera’ – i bought it on the first day it came out, and had an emo moment when the US version only had the first disc T-T

HAVE YOU EVER:

… Drawn any of the guys from the band - ...not very well...at all...lol

… Written a fanfic about them – nope

… Gone to any of their concerts, how many and how did you react – i went to one...half the time i couldnt believe they were there, then...i had fun i guess???

… cried while watching a Tokio Hotel video, if yes, which one – none really, but i thought Spring Nicht was pretty sad

… Dreamt about Tokio Hotel while sleeping – like once...lol not often though

… Talked with Bill, Tom, Georg or Gustav, and what did you say to each other – NO but my friends got HI from Georg and Bill...and got laughed at by bill! (not fairrr)

COULD YOU EVER:

…Imagine Tom wearing Bills clothes or Bill wearing Toms clothes –yes, id laugh the whole time

… Get a piercing in you lip, eyebrow or tongue just because Bill and Tom has piercings there – umm no i wouldnt go that far

… Get a tattoo with something Tokio Hotel related – like i said...not that far

Bill: OMFG YAY

Do you like Bills hair – Yess, my fav is half spiked and half down

Bill with or without makeup – it doesnt matter, doesnt change anything for me

How did you react when you heard that Bill had to get surgery – i wondered why all the bad things happen to awesome people and hoped he'd get better!

Which of his tattoos do you like best – the one along his forearm that says "Freiheit 89"

Which of his piercings do you like best – eyebrow

WHAT DO YOU LIKE BEST:

The German “Zimmer 483” or the English version “Room 483” – Zimmer all the way

Are their songs best in German or English – Ich liebe die Lieds in Deutsch! (lol i hope thats correct...i suck at german)the german ones are better

Bill or Tom – bill, but you cant have one without the other

Georg or Gustav – Gustii! <3 he's like a teddy ^_^
