Happy belated Pocky Day everyone 8D
(Don't know Pocky? Read here!)

lol I didn't know there was a Pocky Day until I came across an article on Wiki some hours ago XD
Apparently it started in Korea for the snack Pepero, which was copied inspired by Pocky. The company that made Pepero, Lotte, realized that their sales somehow increased around early November. Therefore they encouraged this and made it into a day; November 11, or 11/11, was chosen because they look like...yes, those biscuit sticks in a row. CUUUTE.
In Japan though it's not as popular. But some do appreciate the day, like how I noticed in Pixiv :D

If you know who I was drawing up there then you're AWESOME.
This Wacom tablet is really smooth, I super-like it ♥


A Reason to Smile today :
It almost seems like I'm a bit lucky today ;3

Pocky Day? That is kind of pointless while amusing.

Wacom tablet omg. Those things, when I still drew more I wanted to get one. These days I just want to sharpen my skills anyways. It's weird, I often end up sketching something and people go like "you're such a good drawer" and I'm like "dude, I just illustrated some crap behind my English word test paper while waiting for the others to finish with their own" do you ever get that?

It almost seems like I'm a bit lucky today ;3
does this mean you consider yourself normally somewhat unlucky? (Or is there some significant meaning behind the ";3"? aah curious!)

I like reading your location information, it's always creative and surprising.

yep, it's pointless, yet really amusing -- like Oktoberfest! haha lol ok that wasn't funny *bricked*

OMG I GET THAT TOO. even though all i did was...randomly scribbling stuff out of my head at...the back of my exam paper too 8D in fact my best doodles are on exam papers XD
but the tablet -- i'm no pro, and i doubt i'll ever be one, so it only serves as a pen/mouse instead of an actual art tool =w=; yeah a waste, really, when i think of it. BUT I LOVE EET NEVERTHELESS ♥

lucky -- ahaha curious eh? it has nothing to do with guys, just fyi lololz XD what really happened was, some stuff that day went the way i liked it would be :3 smooth sailing, somewhat X3

and...wow you actually read that? I LOVE YOU SO MUCH. they're mostly related to a random J-rocker if you noticed ahaha

ooh you know it? Haha well, it sounds a bit interesting in a way. Both weird and then not; Idunno, I'm not really fond on beer but I could experiment them more.. yup yup

Yearite, exam papers are the best for those! I wonder when a teacher will complain for it. Humm I don't think so, it brings you simple joy, eh. Even if you didn't hardcore use it

So I was seeing stuff which wasn't there, after all. It's good the wind blows the way you want it.

Of course! Some people just but their homeland or such, I started long ago paying attention on that information. I regocnised a link between all those and it went on. Oh yes, you appear very dearly to me too ;) don't I know but it is Nadia-wise!

well, the only thing i know about Oktoberfest is...drinking 8D i don't know the history behind it and stuff, so *shrugs* and there's Oktoberfest there too?

[harakanraakku.livejournal.com]

Well, yes -- if you ask me it's not about the drinking itself but the beer. Youknow, some people want to enjoy certain type of alcohol, not merely for the getting wasted-wise. But Oktoberfest has a long history behind it. There as here? Nope, we don't have such. Finns just drink without any "fancy" traditions much and that's that, lol.
