Queen - Who wants to live forever

First about the title subject, which made me laugh.
On Friday I went to a local games' shop with my sister ~Parsaliini to search for Silent Hill 4. They didn't have it at the moment but promised to get me one.
But it indeed seems I lack some credibility as the other seller looked at me for some time and asked: "Are you buying this for yourself? Aren't you scared?". When I told him that yes, it's for me and actually I'm not very scared of the Silent Hill games I've played, he said I had shaken his world view. I nearly burst into laughter at this point.
Still, this is yet one more proof about the gamer stereotypes. Like a little miss such as me would play M rated horror games. :''D
If we listen to the stereotypes that is.
Though I have to admit that girl gamers (at my age and older esp.) are a bit rare. Especially the girls who play horror genre etc..

Then a few words about something else.
I have now my own computer which makes it easier for me to draw digital art (esp. since I have a separate 23" screen for my laptop for using tablet and all). Fear not, I'm not going to give up on traditional either.

Then I can tell you that I've been enjoying my new school. I get to photograph, learn photo manipulation, picture composition... etc.
The only thing that bugs me is that it's even too loose. For example next week I only have two days of school.
Well never perfect right? I'll need only some extra activities.
