      Hello! My name is Sareh and welcome to my profile! Please enjoy--and leave me comments! I do love comments. Really... Love.

      Another new profile… This one is still under construction. I got interested in hover areas after playing around with Homiko’s code, and this profile is the result. Before I call it finished, I’d like to turn the hover sections into clickable sections, but so far my attempts in that direction have failed… Of course, I’m not giving up any time soon.

      Graphics-wise, this is probably the simplest profile I have ever done. The main image is from the cover of Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep (naturally, not my art). Other additions were minimal; I’ve been striving for more minimal profile designs lately. But what this one lacks in complex graphics it certainly made up for in complex code. It’s a monster, really. And still not finished… D; One day, CSS, I will defeat you…

      Of course, I’ve wanted to do a BBS profile since before the game even came out, so this is coming a little late, I guess. Well, many other things got in the way. If you know anything about clickable sections or have any suggestions for this profile, let me know!

      Anyway, on to me. My name is Sarehptar and I'm an avid Gaia user--so avid that I probably spend way too much time and money on it. If you're feeling generous, you can aid my wallet by helping with my quests.

      I've been playing Gaia forever, in a plethora of different accounts, but this one has been my home for the past seven years. I’m too old to keep up with all these new RIGs and Animated items, blargh.

      I work as a course instructor at the University of Notre Dame. I'm approaching twenty-three and most of my time goes into writing, drawing, and sleeping. I keep all sorts of strange animals, but right now I've only got my coonhound, King.

      As for a physical description of me... I'm medium height, 5' 7"; I have long dyed red hair that is constantly messy, even though it's straight. I'm 110lbs. I'm paler than flour and I have gray-green eyes.

    So...I'm really excited for the PS4! Like, I almost feel a desire to play video games again!! I pretty much gave up hope for the PS3 and started knitting instead, and ever so slowly, yarn has taken over my house....

    You'd think I'd be more busy with a baby, but I'm not. Logan is so easy to care for it's almost disgusting. I feel like I'm cheating the other mothers..,

    Since DIsney bought LucasFilm, do you supposed Princess Leia now counts as a Disney Princess?

    Is this the first time I've actually seen your cat, Kharl? So fluffy! Must pet! At least the two of them seem to get along pretty well?

    I'm not sure Tumblr is worth it. I've been pretty unhappy with their support. I've actually been keeping a list of Tumblr fails: won't allow tables or line breaks in posts, won't allow responses to posts on blogs you're not following, won't allow responses to other people's responses, etc. It's absolutely terrible for contacting other users or writing. It's like, strictly posting images. Which, of course, I never post. rolleyes

    I'm not exactly sure where we'll go in two years. Depends on where my husband can get a job. He was thinking Bellingham, which is beautiful, and my aunt lives there, but keeps us just as far away from our parents. I really want our daughter to live closer to her grandparents. whee

    The coast? Are you back on the west coast then? Yeah, it's amazing how much energy moving takes. I swear, you don't realize how much you've accumulated until you have to pack it all. No one to help?

    What, you don't count editing as part of the writing? ^_^ No wonder I've never made it. I always associate editing with "finishing a book in a month." If it's not edited, it's not done. Mm, I think it's true that there will always be scenes that aren't as vivid or colorful as others. If every single scene was beautiful, then none of them would be, right? I mean, there have to be the bland in-between scenes to make the critical ones stand out. (Even entire books of fast-paced action will become boring if there aren't any breaks from it, right? Like, the reader starts to adapt to the faster pace as "normal..." ) Ha ha, my friend said I've gotten better about that. When I was in high school, she said it was really easy to tell which scenes I didn't want to do, because I nearly skipped over them entirely. It was like I'd written over them in brilliant red, "this is a boring scene." Now I often find that if I wait until I have a good idea for how to approach them, I'm more excited and they turn out way better. Buuut that's a bad way of going at it for NaNoWriMo, where you can't afford to wait.

    Have you tried publishing anything you've written for it yet?

    It's a lot of work this Alchemy thing. Luckily I have had a lot of spare time in August.
    I am crafting my own alchemy cases/caches.
    So far so good, I have been able to break even the costs and profits xd
    I'll see how far I can level up, if it becomes to costly to craft the level formulas, I'll wait.

    If all people on Gaia would do Alchemy, the items used as components would be gone quickly ><

    Many thanks for the trade, have a good weekend biggrin

    Okido, I just send you a trade, offer the Mp price, the item is popular.
    It is used for an alchemy formula, I got all ingredients except for that item (^.^)
    Thank you for helping out o(^.^)o

    So my insurance approved me for a home birth...hee hee. I watched this documentary on Netflix called "The Business of Being Born" and it pretty much made me never want to have a baby in the hospital. Ever. My midwife said about 4% of her clients end up in the hospital, but usually because the woman developed some condition prior to labor (like high blood pressure) that requires a more advanced setting.

    Only in comments to the one friend who asked... Here you go.. Got the idea to add Homiko opposite of him with her wings (which I've never attempted in my realism style). Am also thinking i'll gradient her end to look like day time.
