音時雨 ～Regentropfen～

With a REAL keyboard, it's so great to live with a little Surface. Finally no more harsh struggle in typing quickly or trouble in coding/HTML-tagging on my little Surface, or dealing with an alternative way instead of various shortcuts, or getting mad at any accidents of touching the top right corner and closing something.
Now my Surface IS a computer~!

And eventually I can bring back my long forgotten "Preload" CMD variables!

A few drawbacks so far.
- It doesn't have "Home/End" keys
- No PrtScr key
- When I press Alt+F4 on any window, it turns my Surface to sleep -- It might be my system setting, but on my laptop, it closes the currently opened window (well, just figured out that I need to press Alt+Fn+F4...)

Generally, I'm picky on keyboards, especially the touch-feeling. Based on my (perhaps outdated) experience, keyboards I don't like include but not limited to IBM, Lenovo, HP and Toshiba.

From Sound Horizon's album "Elysion", there is a part that sings "you get one, and you want ten more".
So true.
A few days ago, when I finally saw the outside sky was a pure grey, and was almost excited to loop "Haizora no Shizuku", I began to ask "why there's no snow? It would fit the song 1k times better."

As a result, I went to level up in game instead of looping the song. orz

BTW, if taking out the kana "no" from this song title, it becomes "Haizora Shizuku", which can't stop me thinking of a girl's name. ^^;

binaria is releasing a new mini-album at the end of next month, and the CD cover image has been published.
While my first impression was:

It's like a witch's barrier in Puella Magica! lol

↑ That why I got such a thought, wasn't completely because of what I was playing and cleared in the past 2 weeks.
Although most players including me tend to die a lot at the very beginning, I do think the battle is great, except that my left analog stick keeps drifting (a chronic problem. I can't even open the controller because one screw was worn out for some reason). I'm not writing any review toward the game or such, the only point here is, don't you think being able to control time, even that's a short moment, is fantastic? That's exactly how I got S rank in the "True Walpurgisnacht fight". Stop the time, and toss a bunch of bombs at her face; when time resumes, you see her HP gauge decreases for ... a lot. xD;;
I indeed used Homura very, very frequently. Another big reason, as a Biohazard fangirl, I can't refuse the sweet rocket launcher!!

"Aooni" movie anime's PV is out, with a short portion of Akiko's theme song~!
I should watch it, and it does have a gorgeous staff/cast group.

↓ Shown in related videos, I saw this.

FF15 bug festival! Laughing too much and my stomach hurts.. (ﾟＡﾟ;)ｺﾞｸﾘ

Is it Mitsuda Yasunori's ultimate power? That in just about a week, this CD is already out of stock in Amazon?? The other item I saw being quickly out of stock is Biohazard 7 (which I'm still hesitating whether to buy it.)

Based on amazon buyer's reviews, the game itself is quite bad. So maybe wait for a cheaper used copy/sale discount is a smarter choice. Glad I didn't preorder.. -__-''
But the music itself has nothing to complain. Even though I can't tell the musical style of Mitsuda Yasunori, I like his works!
Also, while listening to the vocal pieces with Sarah's voice, I began to daydream, to replace her voice with KOKIA's... that must be great too.

今更、もうあけましておめでとうなんか言えません！

毎年もそうであるっぽいね、最初の1ページは必ず日本語で書くこと。
別にいいですけど、これ自分の日記帳（？）だから、好きな言葉で書くといい。
とこう思うが、実は少しだけでも心細うさも含んでる。詳しくは言えなくて、ただなんて時間の流れは早いなぁっていう思いが止まらない。だから一年の始まりには、気分がこうして難しくなって、心の底からお祝いをできなくなる。
でも、これは私だもの、変えようとしてもやはり変えたくもない。こんな日々を送る自分を受け入れる。そして相変わらずこんな日々さえも愛し続ける私です。

さっきから何を書いてるのが自分でも分からなくなってきた‥
が、話は続きます。
もういい加減に何か書くところになったので、二千十七年に入ってからもう二十日過ぎたよ！と内から焦りを感じる。
いいよ、何かを書けばいいのよね！と思ったが、最近、いいえ昨年の終わりからずっと暇が出なくてなかなか始めなかった。

いろんなことがあったけど、思い出にしたくはない出来事を除きで、残ったのを思い出せる限り、今日で全部書き込んであげましょう！

＄１５で買った中古のシングルベッドを売った、そして今は文字通りのベッドを使っていない。代わりに使ってるのはフルサイズの布団一つ、アマゾンさんで昨年４月買ってきたもの。例のベッドのせいで殆ど使ってなかった。わざとこっちを使うためにベッドを売るわけじゃなくて、私何ヶ月前から首筋の調子がおかしいので、枕の高さと関係あるみたいが、その調整が微妙。しかし、ある日直接床に寝てみたら、なんか首に良さそうに気がした。だから、今回引っ越しのきっかけでベッドを処分した。空間を取る以外、上に動くたびに嫌な音を出すのも重要な原因だった。ちなみに＄４０で売ったｗｗｗ
ベッドがなくてもちゃんと眠れる、MS Officeがなくてもちゃんと文章を書けると同じことね。

最近ループしてる歌は志方あきこさんの「灰空の雫」。一つだけ残念なことは、こっちはいつも晴れてるって言うこと。曇ったらもっと歌の雰囲気と近づけるのにね。
「FF15」はやっていません、いずれやるかどうかはも分からない。けどとある実況者の動画を見て、そっちのサウンドトラックをすごく気にいて、上述の歌以外最もループしたいものになっている。タイタンとリヴァイアサンとの戦闘用曲が一番大好き。
ゲームの話の続き、私はやはり「バイオハザード７」をやらなければならない、一人のファンとしてね。たとえ画面酔いがひどかったとしてもっ！！

折り紙への情熱が戻ったみたい、何も書けないのもこちらに影響ある。くす玉はこの二週間もう何個作った。そして、もう少し後で、関連の本をも買おうかなと思ってた。折り紙は本当に不思議だよ、色の組み合わせにも色々味わえる。最高だった！
色との戯れはもう一つ増えた。３日前、私はある九千ピースのパズルを買ったので。出来上がったら私よりもでっかい！パズルが好きだった私は、もう十年以上やらなかったけど、今回の九千はいいチャレンジに間違いがない。楽しんでいる♪

それで、またいくつかの材料から、可愛らしい猫用首輪を出来上がったのです～

かあいい？にゃう？(☆｀・ω・´)

もう一つ新しい企画は、自分のサイトをphpで書き直したいです。perlが決して嫌いじゃない、でも限られる自分の知識からさえ、前者の方はウェブサイト的には有利だと知ってる。考えると、今の気分はOperaがchromeの核に変えたときのようです。新しいものは絶対良いと知っても、今使ってるやつとの別れがやや辛いが、結局終わりにつける。
幸い、phpとperlはいい姉妹。きっとうまく行ける。（*´▽｀*）

最後に、自分の娘のことですが。あれこれで気が取られつつ、新しい発想が付いてこない今に、「いよいよリメイクを始めよう」と、心が響いてる。
どの作品からするのはまだ決めてないが、次は絶対にリメイクする！

って、まだあるのかな、書き込みたい出来事…
思い出す次第に次のページに書こう～

My original plan was to remaster "Petits Threes" for the holidays, but thinking that there're 3 characters I need to draw in detail, plus this end of year looks super crammed, I didn't go with it and switched to another piece that I recycled from the never-touched Halloween draft -- did I ever mention it before?

Whatever, so thus I reduced my work to 1 character only, with another 2 in SD. It's indeed like what I did before, and I also considered changing the main, but I couldn't stop to draw light coloured hair!

大晦日の折り鶴 (literally "New year eve's paper crane")

I didn't intend to make a Christmas styled piece at all, but wanted to give just a little of such ambience. I also wanted a dark dress, so I replaced my initial colouring in a more lively style.
The paper crane existed since I did the draft, and through that I was blending more orient New year's taste. I was planning to make another western/eastern mix and I think it was going as I wished.

For many reasons, the background turned to be much simpler as I drafted. I've taken away lots of extra yet time consuming elements, and instead, using patterns and colours to achieve a holiday mood. Near the end of makeup, I was almost like doing a postcard, so that's how I got the mizuhiki on top.

Finally the title. I wanted a non-stereotyped one, knowing it could be hard. But lucky enough, I occasionally saw Suga Shikao's music video appearing in the recommendations. "Oomisoka no Uchuusen"? I can definitely use the frame!

End of story.

This year was so great that I knew and seamlessly switched to ClipStudio, which made me having more experience with background! Photoshop is just not for me.

PS. Ghost in the Shell is interesting! Glad it's not a hidden land mine~

良いお年を！
