[Wes Foxx]'s diary
Words from Wes.
I follow the world around me, living its tempo to the fullest.
I let the wind carry me on the wings of my heart, soaring above all my expectations, floating freely as my mind wanders like a cloud across the sky.
I hear the song of life itself, trillions of voices shouting in glorious chorus their hopes and dreams, the very essence of the soul has its own unique song, the lyrics as beautiful as the hymn of a heavently angel.
I am guided by the pulse of the tides, the water of my day fed from streams of imagination. My mind drinks it in deeply as I feel myself pulled and led inexorably on my way. I feel the moon guide me in its silvery arc across the gem studded velvet of the night sky.
I feel the earth beneith my paws and read the story of a million years of humble service, the life and death of a million creatures, the rays of sun that struck it, the drops of rain that carried it away, the molten heat of the earth reforming it, eons of time seeing it slowly called to the surface once more, holding with atlas like strength great skyscrapers, massive vehicles, indeed, the entire weight of the world was once told to me by a grain of sand that once confessed it had been right upon the metalic core of the earth.
The winds have sung a song that all have heard before. Its siren wails, its enchanting whispers, its fierced raging gales, its heart-stopping destruction
These and many other things combine in a great symphony of song, story, dance, combat, poetry, music!
Magna Terra Artis Certus Est!

My thoughts keep turning to a warm breeze and palm trees, crystal waves and sunny days, steel drums over sugar plums, the frozen days to island ways, the call of the seagull, the pulse of the seashore, the feel of the sea breeze, fireworks, firesides, fireflies, days without school, a nice swimming pool, the icecream cool.
Only 5 more months to go, then no more snow. The days will be slow, but thats just goes to show.
The music in my head just refuses to go away, i feel my fingers walking to the keys, the digits tapping away a message written from my heart, my brain content for once to step aside. My heart begs to speek of love, guiltily confesses sorrows, inner aches and pains, but never truly ignored by others. Its pulse keeps time to the songs it sings, a pure melody of emotion untainted by selfish desires, flowing straight to my fingers unfiltered by my brain which selfishly cuts out the mushy romance and keeps it locked away.
I feel my body swaying my whole soul entwined in song
The snowflakes with their white lies tell me that nothing can go wrong.
My heart is content to listen and my mind has naught to say
Sometimes its nice to pretend that all our troubles have gone away.
Nothing wrong with doing this so long as you still know:
Everyone would freeze to death if they always listened to the snow.
A random train of thought extracted from my brain. thanks for reading my thoughts ^^
History of Inari is coming along insanely fast! at this rate monday will be the day i start to write the ACTUAL STORY for the first act! I plan to post every chapter as its completed on here, so watch for it!
SUBJECT: ARIC C BOSHOVEN, OF THE UNITED STATES. # 1109192795.
But it does look like a mug shot doesn't it? We call those lanyard and IDs we wear around our necks dogtags because of the schools bulldog mascot. Last year we were green; now we're dark blue. At least we know what we get next year; seniors (12th grade for those less scholarly people out there) always get the red. Dang freshman this year. Always clogging the halls. Their lanyards (those who actually WEAR theirs, rebellious little 'tards) give them the nickname of "Orange Roadblocks" and "Frosh-picked Oranges". I find it funny. Partner them up with the sophomoric sophomores we got and you get holloween colors. Their black and our blue are almost indistinguisha
Getting a heck of alot done with the History of Inari. At this rate I'll have all the chapters outlined by friday, all the characters for all the chapters by the next friday, and character sketches for many of them by april.
Starfox Assault:
-Time to complete: 3 hours
-Rating: 8.2
-Pros:
~Very nice job with the level designs and weapon systems
~Its Starfox, so its gotta be good.
~A better plot than Starfox 64
~Multiplayer
~The graphics are sweet
~Sound is good (except maybe for the voices)
~Very addicting and fast-paced
~Bonuses and unlockables, as well as 3 levels of difficulty, give it alot of replay value.
-Cons:
~Even though its very replayable, it won't take you much time to complete all 10 missions once.
~The characters have different voices than the classic games.
~Tricky from Starfox Adventures makes a short cameo. Why did he have to come back? Xx
~The single player missions don't let you get to play as Krystal ='(
~The plot isn't quite as good as Starfox Adventures, though it does have some interresting plot twists.
Uploaded 4 sketches for characters in the ~History of Inari~ and in the ~Foxx Galary~
~History of Inari~
I tossed in a ton of teaser info for The Legeands of Inari: Crystal Saga (the 4th act in the series, I'll probably finish them by alternating from the first few to the last few) I gave about 6 of the characters and some of the major locations
~History of Inari~
Ive been doing alot of work on this page. I'll probably create a bunch of teasers with the stuff as I make it up. Its panned out immensely as I work one or two other stories I was planning merge with it to form the combination of all eight stories, or acts, into The Legeands of Inari
Wes's Analysis of Fire:
The fire is good. The fire is warm
The fire is burning despite people's scorn
The fire is harsh. The fire doth rage
The fire is howling like a tiger encaged
The fire hath no pity; it hath no compassion,
Burning down cities with its fiery passion
It incinerates all without hesitation,
Burning down districts, states, cities and nations
The fire will burn, be it manmade or not,
A spark in the forest and its soon blazing hot
A bolt from the sky, a castaway match,
A smoldering cigarete on a dry leafy patch
Fire responsible for the worlds great advances,
But whenever it burns, humankind takes its chances
The fires of earth, rocks melted with heat
Ash clouds the sky in a black dusty sheet.
Daily a million volts fall to the earth,
Setting sparks to the plants which lay dead on the turf.
Fire runs engines that make our cars go
We've harnessed the power of the shining red glow!
But humans are far from being fires great masters;
The flames still signal danger and our greatest disasters.
=) A Daily Poem winning piece once again ^^
Holy shnikies! I was scrollin' through the list of members in Anthro Lovers and I see someone talking about this place called Furcadia. So I click on the link and head to http://www.fur
Finally, the wireless router works! im able to get half-speed broadband from the comfort of anywhere in our house now ^_^ expect me to be on alot more and without random having-to-leav
Good news! we got DSL!
Bad news! we don't have it wirelessly connecting to the laptop yet!
So-so news! at least mom forgot to have them get rid of this regular dialup line so im still able to get on!
GAHHH... I can't draw anymore all of a sudden... Everything messes up repeatedly, I can't even do the simplest stuff correctly... All my talent is vanishing away like dust in the wind... ~sighs~ Oh well, can't let this get me down, Its happened to some extent before, and besides, my mate [Katori PureHeart] has been on a bunch more than usual and thats always a good thing. Make that a great thing. Hell, bump it up to the highlight of my day! I got saturday to look forwards too. All day at a friends house playing co-op games like Starwars Battlefront and Medal of Honor: Pacific Assault
$$$ Just spent a crapload on games and movies today @@ and got new glasses -blinkblinks- had to strengthen my left eye prescription, so I did some shoping while we were out there. Viewtiful Joe, MoH: Pacific Assault and LoZ:Four Swords(gc version) are all added to my purple cube's arsenal. We also got X2 and League of Extraordinary Gentleman, good movies though not that great.
THERE IS NOW A TOURNAMENT SET TO BE HELD IN THE ORDER OF INARI RP!!!
This will be extremely fun i hope ^^
2-14-05: ... or not Xx
why did almost no one sign up? this was gonna be fun and several people were looking forwards to participating/
Lots of stuff happening very fast in the Order of Inari RP and [Just Paula] is the star of it all. She's gonna gain rank all the way to High Mage very soon at that pace. Too bad no one else is getting involved like that; I'd love to hand out more promotions and it makes the action seem more widespread instead of just me and her doing it all.
Yay! My poem Soul Painter made the cut for the Daily Poem! -dances- ^_^ and i uploaded a crapload of colored pictures to the lappy. Im finally starting to get art requests, but whats weird is that one or two are actually from IRL too Oo
