Before I completely crash out for the night (as Mimi has done so in my lap), I'd like to take a minute and public an entry I think I should let the world know about.

I can't wait to reformat my fucking heart.

This last decade has been utter horse shit. Fuck falling in love with a man that doesn't respect you, think of you as his everything, nor devote the time and loyalty to the bond between you.
Seriously, just fuck it.

I gave three presentations this week, and had a conference with a teacher. Every one of them sees potential, they like my explanations, my openness, and what I devote into works and practice pieces. My art is from my soul and when it feels empty and neglected, so does the passion for my art.

I want to experience life as if I were in love again, really in love. And for the first time in my life feel that same love back.
I wouldn't need any other mother fucking thing in this world.
I regret it turned out the way it did for me. If I could wear an ollamh's binding and desert my feelings, I would. It seems like the far-away emptiness would be a lot more bearable but just as regrettable as how I feel now. At least I wouldn't be taunted. "Now what was that feeling that made me sick to my stomach with every secondary feeling? What made me want to tear down mountains and run to either side of the earth?"
And then I would move on. Alas.
I'm a firm advocate in fate and I think I'm subjecting myself to that pain again, but with fresh doses of it daily. Hurt/Ignore/Hurt/Ignore. There has to be a reason for this, why I can't just give the fuck up and let it be.
I think a proper description of how I really feel about everything is a loss of depth perception. Nothing's real anymore, just flat, boring, daze-ful...

O' Forces of nature! I need love! Bring me love!
Bring me REAL Love!

some lyrics from the song. Not exactly relating to the entry, but almost. I don't hate myself, I love my ideologies, and my sketches may be a waste, but their worth is in the process of creation.
--
But just then, my knees
give under me.
My head feels weak
and suddenly
it's clear to see
it's not them but me,
who has lost my self-identity.
As I hide behind
these books I read,
while scribbling
my poetry,
like art could save a wretch like me,
with some ideal ideology
that no one could hope to achieve.
And I am never real;
it is just a sketch in me.
And everything I made is trite
and cheap
and a waste
of paint,
of tape,
of time.

Some work...

2009-12-08T09:41:44Z

I met with my advisor last week and I'm going to branch off into Illustration: Visual Storytelling for Film. I want to be an art director! Or something like that. Thanks to my wonderful ex for sending the video, he can be such a sweety, it's a perfect example of what I'd like to be involved in. Fucking love it! The style's too cartoony compared to what I wanna do. I guess think Fantasia mix an 80s video I can't seem to find (give Yahoo Answers a day or two XD those people are genius'[ geni? cactus/cacti? ) Anyway, who knows what'll come about in the next few years ^___^ the future is still to be determined, every little thing is another nudge in the right direction \0/ Things are looking up tremendously, energy coming back, excitedness about life, YES. Btw, GOING TO LONDON IN THE SPRING, KTHXWHOO!

Going to start cropping my school work to show everyone :D expect a real update this weekend!

btw, I made the entire Thanksgiving dinner today! I have the blisters to prove it!

Turkey (I made it dance in the sink XD )
Stuffing (with apples slices for accents!)
Green beans (with Lemon zest and almonds!)
Mashed potatoes (with colby jack cheese, garlic, and a hint of cream cheese!)
Marshmallow Yams!
Honeyed Carrots!
Cranberries ala Orangey zest!
Flakey Biscuits!
Gravveeyy! (being the last part, I felt sad when I liquefied the turkey's heart, liver, and kidney with the blender XD they were so cute and squishy~~ )

I wanted to bake pumpkin pie and serve some corn as well D: but we only had1 big pot I had already shared with the yams, potatoes, and stuffing. Alas, there was no time... however, left overs abound.

TURKEY SANDWICHES.

Albinoni - Adagio, For Violin, Strings & Organ In G Minor ← Download me~!

Addicted to this song, makes me feel hella creative, with a tinge of loss. I think I'm in a revolutionary "new chapter" type of personality change here. Not much of what I used to listen to is enjoyable anymore. I still have plenty of my mellowdramatic, dance, and 8-bit artists... I just can't stand listening to them anymore. I'm also feeling pretty lethargic lately. I think the weather has something to do with it, and my run-down emotional back-brain state. Usually I'd spend all night reading by ambient lighting, basking in the fragrance of giant candles, and sipping tea. Can't seem to do that now. Too cold, too tired, too sad (on levels I don't really want to explain publicly).

So my dad gracefully took out a loan in my name, instead of his, like I thought was the plan. Seems as though, if all goes according to the tuition for the next 4 years, I'll be dishing out almost $200k on a Bachelor's degree.

fff.

Here's the most relieving statement out of the 7 pages of breakdown:
"If you die, your loan obligation will be cancelled."
... thanks. Glad to know you won't be selling my organs in the black market...

Seriously though, loans are fucking scarey. I trusted my dad to help me out, guess that didn't go to plan. There's a guy I met at school, the funny asshole quiet-type I usually get along with in public facilities that went to an art highschool out in Miami. It's his first term too, fucker is so nonchalant about his education =__= and you know why? He got a scholarship paying for everything. Just one apparently, and it's not from ACD itself.
Augh. Just as bad as rich people attending there because they have the money to do it and want to feel culturally influential.

At any rate, I still hold promise to posting class work, since these last 14 weeks have gone by fucking fast :\ I just... need to find time, or bother-ment (refer to lethargia↑) So, since I was accepted into ECA, I've been on the fence about school in the states. I got accepted to a really good one, am able to pay for it, with 25 years of debt ahead of me. So the last couple days I've been thinking....
Fuck It.
I want to get my Master's. I want to get my Master's in Edinburgh.
I want to be good. I want to be the best. I want to be the best I can be.
I want to blow everyone out of the water.
I want to stop getting down on myself when I can't get a certain style correct. I want to stop thinking what people think of me.
I want to not want to cry when I draw something horrendously unproportioned.
I don't want to lose my style, I want to improve it. I want to pass my classes. I want to impress.
And most of all, I want to be the one who paves her future.
I want the incredible sense of pride in 5, 10, or 30 years from now to feel that I earned everything I have.

You know what's clashing with this though? Probably not, but it's what's making me lethargic, energetic, sad, scared, angry, and completely... out of my mind.

I guess that's the result of "reaping what I sow". I want to shake it, but I don't think I ever will... and honestly? I don't want to. I wish it would have worked out. Fuah.

Here's a letter I wrote to Birgitta MacDonald a second ago. She's the amazing interational student advisor I spoke to when I was in Scotland last year. She helped me so much ♥ I can't thank her enough. She didn't reply to my last letter, but I think it got lost in the spam of the summer/Fall-term mail.... or maybe she just trashed it. Either way, if I don't get a reply Friday when I get back from my meeting with the Director's (described below), I'ma reactivate my Virgin phone and give 'em a call.

Hello Ms. Birgitta~ I'm not sure if you received my last e-mail. I wanted to thank you for all your help, I can't tell you how much it meant to me~! I want to keep in contact with you, especially now, to keep my eye focused on Scotland (ECA specifically) being my final educational destination. I'm currently enrolled in the Pasadena Art Center of Design out in California studying Illustration. It's almost the end of the first term and, heart-to-heart here, everytime I make a new friend, I always tell them where I feel I truly belong... at ECA! It's odd to finally be doing what I love but feeling so dislocated from another part of myself. I wanted to request your help one last time... I'll try calling next week or this Friday to see if I can get in touch with you, as I'm absolutely serious about this. You're the only teacher, aside from a nice man at Dundee, to follow up so thoroughly with my application and offer every type of assistance possible and I thank you again for that, so much!

So to start (I'll try not to make this too long), my course director happens to be from London herself, her name's Ann Field. At the orientation this Fall, it was almost fate that I found this out and that there's a 1-week London trip every year in the Spring. One of the current students managed to get an Internship while he was over there, and flew out this fall for it. When I stopped her and asked her about it, and that my official goal was to be a citizen and hopefully get a really nice career going there, she chuckled and said, "sure, you'd have to be a pope though to get nationalization." It put a dent in my dreams so to speak, but I think if I go about this the right way, there may be a possibility for it.
I'm going to the Director's office this Friday to see if I can sit with them and map out my career goal... there's three branches of Illustration in this school: Graphics, Fine-Art, and Animation. I'm on the wire between Fine-Art and Graphics.

My father just took out a loan in my name (admittedly I thought he was taking it out on his own behalf, ack ) so it looks like I got some help behind me financially, as well as a lot of debt awaiting my future. My goal is to get my Master's degree in Illustration at ECA, in the event I'm able to stick out all eight terms here at ACD, otherwise I'd like to continue my education up there until I receive my Master's. I'm stuck though where I can get the most out of the degree and be able to properly pay the loan back on schedule. It's something I plan to discuss with my Director, but I also need your help in this matter, what is your opinion on it? Do you know of any graduates/post-graduates getting well-paying jobs in the UK? They're throwing Pixar, Dreamworks, Disney, Blizzard, and the artsy movie Guilds here in CA at us. Honestly I don't know where my heart lies in my career. My Composition teacher does a lot of Galleries and travels back and forth from Europe a lot, showcasing his 50 foot-long murals. Mostly it's a lot to do with humanitarianism, personally my art is more surreal and psychological, so it's no surprise his skill in social and political representation put him in the spotlight. He told me a couple weeks ago he stopped teaching as many classes so he could focus on his painting career- I'd like to eventually be in his position: have a steady job(in his case teaching), and focus on my personal art on the side. I brought up Art Directing to a friend and they say I'm in the wrong field for that sort of thing, but I think I have a knack for visualizing stories, songs, poetry... just about any scene given to me. Naturally that's what an Illustrator is about, but describing the scenes to a group of people and pushing a story along in a direction or putting ideas on the table sounds like my forte. But as to what I do with that...? Since I haven't secured my loan just yet, I'm not sure how much I'll be taking out each year, but if I take out the maximum Art Center requires, I'll be paying back at least $2.5k/month (what to do for rent and food, alas!)

That about sums up my predicament at the moment. Sorry if it's a little long. I hope I'm not a bother, but sitting here and pouting isn't getting me any closer to my dreams! I'm sure I'll stumble on something great during the next 6 years of study, I hope you can help me find that something!

Yours most thankfully, appreciative, and humbly,
Kara J

Measurements are a little off... the waist is 3.5" larger then my own, but nothing a couple safety pins can't fix!

Go Here! Her stuffs not all that expensive. I was prepared to buy a corset for for $150, but looky! XD I GOT A WHOLE OUTFIT FOR THAT PRICE! GoGo Burlesque Zombie Neko! There's a girl in my class that's making me acrylic nails, the creepy long ones I'm so happily fond of XD this is so going to rock. Yay for not having to sift through Salvation Army!

Btw, Me and Minel are headed off to the Edison for Halloween, and after watching Zombieland (♥♥) I came up with the best couple's costume... Eddie and Erin are doing the overly played out, "Angel/Devil" routine. FFFff, fuck that. For me and Minel will be addressed as "The Zombie an her Hunter" Hawhawhaw! He's already got the military gear. We're gonna buy a couple toy guns, saw off the handle and stick them in strappy sheath things to imitate arsenaly-equipped madman Zombie apocalypse survival-ee.
We're gonna rock |D

Whoa.

An Article about a 7 year-old with Schizophrenia... I thought this part of the article was interesting to read about, kind of inspiring, really. In a curious sort of way:
Link To Article

"The week following Labor Day began badly.

The hallucinations of rats and cats that crowd Jani's mind were becoming more prominent. Two phantom figures -- Wednesday the rat and Four Hundred the cat -- are the restless hallucinations who urge Jani to do what she calls "bad things."

That week, Wednesday told her to find a place to jump from 50 feet. Jani told her parents about Wednesday's command but informed them, "I'm not listening."

"I do think it's a positive sign that she told us preemptively," Michael said.

Four Hundred the cat had returned in early September after a pleasant absence. "Jani became very insistent that we had to take care of Four Hundred to keep Four Hundred from bothering her," Michael said.

On Sept. 10, while at school, Jani said, Four Hundred told her to run out of her classroom three times. On one occasion, Jani blindly followed the beckoning Four Hundred into the street. She was readmitted to UCLA later that day.

"We took her back because we feared for her safety," Michael said.

The Schofields hope their daughter's hospitalization won't be lengthy. The doctors are increasing her dose of Clozaril to 300 milligrams a day -- a dose similar to what adults take. But the couple is struggling with feelings of failure and worries about the future.

"It hurts like hell to send her back to the hospital," Michael said. "When she's in the hospital, we feel like we've lost the battle -- not the war, but the battle -- and we need to regroup and prepare for the next battle."

When Jani is discharged, she will not return to school. "I'm better at keeping her out of her psychoses," Michael said. "Special ed is just not set up for a child with schizophrenia. And it's difficult to trust anyone else to do what we do for Jani."

The Clozaril has helped, overall, but it will never extinguish the mysterious animals and little girls that frolic in Jani's "other world," which she calls Calalini."

Happy Birthday to me!!

Whoo! Birthday me! I love waking up, logging into DA, and the first Recent Dev. I see is this one: Textures 13, Cable9Tuba. I'm watching him for his form of body, not anatomical penis shots, kthx.
That aside, Mom sent me a really nice card yesterday and the corset I've been waiting a year to get from Louise Black! Crazy how time flies by XD I remember the night I bought it and the ribcage one lik it was yesterday T_T I'm 21, getting old! OLD.

17th Century Cameo and swirly patterns ftwwwww.

I'm not sure what I'm going to do today, I've been sick all week, maybe roll over and vomit more phlegm into a bag.
Whee.

I should take a bit of time though to reflect on college: I LOVE IT. Lots of work, but the classes... they're a week apart! So if I start working on one assignment a day, little by little I can finish by the weekend and have Sun/Mon night to myself X3 of course that's in theory. It's Sat and I haven't done jack shit since Tuesday. Ahah. How Kara-like.

My Composition teacher (Mark Strickland) loves me, but I think I dissapointed him when I said I wanted to do sculpturing for my Scholarship Project instead of a painting or somehthing, and that most of my work is built around distorted anatomy (being that he's a Composition teacher, there's no such thing as thinking outside the human body box of LAWWWW. Or, constellation points, if he'd want to get technical D: ) so he referred me to another professor that... DADADA, teaches IMAGINATOMY! Honestly, I didn't evn think there were classes for things like that. But there are! And I'm not in it! D< gawddamnit! Nearly waived out of my Writing Class 'cause the teacher loves my philosphical/creative side, but because I didn't quite touch the "point" of the essay we were given to analyze, she kept me in :\ I could have really used that extra 3 hours Thursday nights, AND the 5 hours of research/writing we gotta do. Fuck obscure essays. I'd rather do more creative writing or none at all -__-

←← Here's the kind of sculpturing I'd like to be able to do by Christmas.
I did a bit of sculpturing in Highschool, some of you might recall... when I was doing it, hocrap FUN. Loved it. Too bad I gave them away :\ ah well, I CAN MAKE BETTER JES. And I will! ♥

At any rate. If I can get my shit down and finish all homework by Sunday, I think I'll start using Mondays to go to campus on my off-days. Hopefully Rey will be there(Imaginatomy Teacher). Here's his website (to be honest I havent looked at it yet, hopefully I'm not linking you to a shitty site): http://www.reybustos.com/.

So my back's killing me. I'll update this when we bother to do anything fun as an assignment. So far it's just been kiddy shit in Design and studying of the skull/body. Although, I gottaa admit, I'm loving my Perspective class!

EDIT
lmfaaooo! I just went to check out Rey's site... Amen brotha.

Sorry, just an update of HOW MUCH I LOVE MY SIM.
/tears up.

I really don't want to lose it, I was going to build a rental shop last night... but Minel was against it,considering it's not a full sim it wouldn't be able to handle the vendors... and I accidentally made the shop the size of jesus. So I finished the texturing, shoved some seats into it... and wamph. Came out with a really awsome lounge-type dome. o_o fucking love it.
My head's still spinnin' on what to do with the fucking place, so I guess I'll just start child-laboring a bunch of outfits, prepare to see even less of me!

( please bear with my incapability to be online and work at the
same time... [this is mostly at you Mousey, you know I love you XD ♥♥])

/OFFICIAL (ART)COLLEGE STUDENT.

You know, it's slightly overtly highly and obtrusively intimidating when the near-graduates sit up on stage and tell you, without hesitation... "watch your mental health."

Today was orientation, a four-day extravaganza cut down to 2 8-9 hour days. It was great fun, aside from the fact that they all relentlessly went on about how much work it's going to be. I think this whole day was about that alone. I couldn't help but laugh when someone stood up and finally asked, "so to try and get a picture of the OTHER end of the spectrum, what's the most fun you've had at ACCD?" and they all coughed. XD No shit. I think the average amount of fun leveled to playing video games in school. One class had a squirt gun fight in their room as a study... -archs brow-

Today was the second day of Orientation, I didn't specify why it was cut from 4 to 2 days... that would be due to the fire. At any rate. I'm really excited to be in there. The Illustrators are really impressive. Our chairman's from London (/dies happy) and they take a yearly trip to London. It's coming up, I won't have money for it, but for the first time, she explained, ever, one of her students was offered an Internship in London for a term.... 10 weeks! Working in the UK! I nearly fell out of my seat! So I spoke to her afterward and she says it was a very rare thing.. it impressed even her this kid got it... since the jobs have to approach you first and all. But I'm like, AUGH. I want to be in the UK! So I think I made my mark when I told her I would love to take a term Internship there at some point during my 4 years. I'm going to work my ass off. ASS.OFF. to be as awsome as possible. I got down on myself too much during the orientations, too many amazing artists, so much talent! Augh, I need to get better at painting. First class is Tuesday... wish me luck!

So, to get into this bitch, I spent a weekend drawing a bunch of figure studies... I tried to cover the basic mediums, so here ya are:

/ School.
<SL>
So, I've been neglecting my sim a little. Mostly due to being overwhelmed with trying to find a job, trying to get into College, and attempting to escape for some MMOage. I've also opened a sketch thing on Gaia... More info on that below.
I never posted the finished Sialis Lutaria armor set D: which I feel lame about. Click the image on the left to see the SLX page and colors and shite I put together :3

Sidenote: I'm going to remake the corners and possibly remove Spira's shop to help afford sim cost. I'm making about half the tier, so it isn't as bad it was. I'm sure once I finish the next couple outfits in progress, I'll be closer to having the shop and sim paying for itself, truth be told, that's all I really want. The corners and high-end rentals will help too. ACTIVE shopowners this time... -__-

ForeArdune:
Upcoming CyberSkating outfit.
Name derived from my recent re-obsession with Starcraft
(AUUUGH 2ND ONE COME OUT NAOOO.)

Annnd finally! To help me through the figure studies, I decided to hop back on Gaia for a few nights... opened a temp shop and got some comissions. One of them in particular is going to be a lot of work, but it's main focus will be designing the outfit of a character, and specified HIGH DETAIL. Which I'm like, swooning over.
So I'm getting the mini ones out of the way... would have done them already if it wasn't for the fire (evacuated for nearly a week straight! AUGH, how lame is that???)
Ehehe, but Minel's grandmother is going to teach me how to crochet/knit so it's all good.

Working on ↓

Hopefully the whole place doesn't burn down... I got accepted into ACCD! all those fucking figure studies paid off, MWAHAHA. I don't care if I gotta squat in the ashes up here or in the forest by the school... I'M GOING! Orientations this week, Classes begin next week, whoo whoo whoo!

replacing old snapshots with some recent ones... still working on color coordination~~

So I know I promised myself aesthetic art, unfortunately the need to create took a turn to make some armor. It was going to match the MaterMatu skinsuit, but eeeeeh, that also took a turn on itself XD; now it's bug'afied.

'think I almost got the visor texture right, so I slapped it on the other plates to see what it would look like... and voila! I made a cheap demo for me to work wth until I get all the textures' details perfected. Scratches, shadows, swirly designs an' shite... you get the idea:

^click to see boots X3 gonna script a flight enhancer in 'em and put some jet effects, whoo!

On a side note... YAY!

Fucking DONE. Now to make a vendor!

Oh, and I put fishies all over Alu XD ehehe

Tekeli-li's HairFair design, Crustacean, gives anew meaning to "CRAB BATTLE!"

I hear Australia's banning all adult games, SL included. Burn.

On the bright side! Art of Recycling!
Click it! D<

I've been bloody well craving to get my hands on some clay, anything. Soon. Hopefully bills will stop wanting to get paid XD ahh... I do have art. But you guys will have to wait a little longer... as I've finally fucking finished my skinsuit.
HELL YES. Take a look:

oh, and I never showed you the logo I made for Alu :x I changed the font around to make it less spacey looking and more floralesque... /sigh. I'm such a chick XD

So about the outfit, I'm making a number of different colors. I made "Ivory" first (pictured above) but I think I'm going to change the naming around XD; the base colors look nothing like they do when rendered. Might call it something more fancy... like... GoldenRod... /stares. Don't ask questions. The next color is Mint, I might call it Emerald though, it reminds me of the Emerald City /squints. Anyway, I'm putting off all clothing making until I get some aesthetic art finished. I'd shame myself to admit how long it took me to do this outfit. In my favor,I'm new to the 3D app world, but I think I'm getting better. I love bumpmaps, I hate seam matching. I got the demo of Bodypaint as per reccomendment of DA people, Mudbox 09 too. I opened Bodypaint and wanted to cry. I've already had to wrap my head around Maya and Lightwave in the course of the last 6 months. (Tyv, I promise you! It will be done! XD ♥)

Annnd, some random pictures here. Some are from Moontribe anniversary, of which I left my camera on that night I took photos... so I didn't get a chance to go flashing people like I wanted, sadface :<

Random Mimi, Random Buggy (it met it's demise in a jar :x)

Finally, as I was typing this Mimi laid down behind the laptop and hugged our random Lego creations XD so cute~

On a side note, Fallout 3 is fucking awsome. The beginning made us giggle XD you're a baby! I love how the guy's all "you look just like your father!" or some shit and the chosen character aspects are... needless to say totally different.
Blaster lasers, 2headed tofeecoos, zombie bears, and charismatic radiated undead persons ftw.

And so, my new home in lovely La Crescenta, CA(!♥):

Above featured is one of two corsets I bought from LouiseBlack, the other one I'll be getting soon... oh yes -steeples fingers-
-- - --

So here's a little snippit of what's been going on... I cleaned the entire inside of the house! 'cept for the living room, which has been happily dominated by the roommates XD but I think I made my statement, as they've been in organization mode since my mop & bucket adventure, keke. Swept, mopped, scrubbed, washed dishes, swept more, shook out all the rugs, laundry, and more sweeping! I don't have many pictures of the inside, but it's not all that exciting. Rustic '20s lodge theme about sums it up. Augh, wood everywhere.
Fucking ownage.

So let's start with some pics I took in the bathroom. It's really friggin' cute. Minel set it up to a his/her side XD I get the right side ♥, the window opens up and there's a mini roof where I think the electrical meter's in, I'm not sure. Theres a weird extension cord just hanging out on it... I swept it off (god, this place was littered in dirt and leaves! Mega cleanage) so now it works as a nice place to chill and stare out into space ^___^ I'm gonna work on de-cobwebbing it and putting some kind of sunshade up there so I can draw and do whatever if I want some air and a nice height.

Yeah, so the pictures in the bathroom weren't that great... I suck at focusing on my own >( Minel says he wants to help with my photography/modeling hobby, so when we can get his hair in order and *cough* when his leg heals after I kind of sort of.. broke it (best not to ask how that happened XD ) I'll throw some test & couple pics at chuu :3

So I don't want to bore ya'll with too much chatter... personally I just like looking at pictures ¬ ¬ so I'll be brief:
Random pics of us in our room/the bathroom. Sorry no snuggly or face pics of Minel XD I dunno how I managed to only get his back these first couple

Dying Minel's mohawk! Mimi seems to enjoy following us around...

<- weird random holes in the ground,
deer, blue jays, crows, and omg, BUGS:

Perv peeping bathroom moths, demon satan hopping things (yes, hopping), and behemoth mosquito ninjas of Northern SF.
Not to forget our creepy little buddy here ->
♥♥♥

Pics on our way too Moontribe! There's not many from this go since I didn't wanna feel like a total n00b XD; but next month will be the anniversary at some really cool springsish place which I'll totally go around flashing everyone with mah camera >D
Omgomgomg, there was a guy roaming around ass. nekkid. Code name "I love you Adam", thusly dubbed for his single article of clothing, a cut-at-the-waist shirt that cunningly read, "I ♥ U" on it. XDD he was smiling the whole time, total blissful nudist-face, "^____________^" and kept that bloody smile on for the duration of the music. Augh, he was cool, 'jogged on over during the peek blistering heat, parched ol' me dying for water and.. da da da DAA! Watermelon! /on que Zelda treasure scene Sliced and all! I require moar awsome nekkid people!

A'ight, now this last batch of photos was our weekend trip to Sebastapol, northern SF (where that hybrid mosquito pic was taken XD). It was the town I was gonna live in for college if the house wasn't so far into foreclosure. But, things have worked out really well. I dropped the Art Academy even though I was accepted and I visited the Pasadena Art Center.
FFF.
is all I will say.
For now, have some nature, this place we stayed at was all sorts of Secret Gardenesque. Fucking owned. Wait until we sav eup for some nice gardening tools. I'm going to fucking plow through the entire expanse of our near-acre yard!

And and and! Minel's gonna take me to a waterfall when his leg's all better

Ok! So, now some art work. Minimal. But other then resizing images, adventuring, housecleaning, adventuring, and resizing images, I am proud to say... I SORTED EVERY FOLDER IN MY COMPUTER. I am le happy.
So while I undergo major Lightwave tutorialz, I shall be d00dling and working on sceneries and character sheets a lot more. Here's some old and new stuff:

Baaawwwwh. I wanted to show you guys all my nifty photos from Cali! Unfortunately my new CF card isn't liking my card reader, so it'll have to wait /sadface :<
But!
Minel was all "I'm going to Fry's for a driver!" and I'm all, "okie, I'm going to roll over and drool on my pillow some more" and then he's all, "I'm home!" and I'm all, "cookies for breakfast." and then like, BAMF:

eeeee, SO sexy. It's 4am and we's gots shitz to do to(day)morrow, otherwise I'd be drawing until my hand falls off, but I practiced a bit and am absolutely taken over by this tablet. TAKEN. OVER.
So here, shitty sketch is shitty, but ahm'gawd, it was soooooo much fun to do. I can't believe I never bothered to save up for one.
Wacom > life

/edit!
Checkout my current sketch :DD I shoved the screencap in there because I'm lazy. But you get the idea, AUUUGH. fun.

Chillaxing time is almost over. It's been a week now that I've been able to settle nicely in Cali. I'm loving it, loving the deer and loving the awsome expanse of our yard. Lame the card reader isn't working. I WANT TO SHOW YOU T_T it's awsome, 'can see the mountain range just beyond the trees and we live next door to a an asian lady who does the floral gardening for celebrities or something, and agrdghsdg her back yard is jaw dropping! I took some pics at a distance... you'll see when I get 'em uploaded ♥ Mimi's loving this place too, she especially has an afiniity for Minel XD I dare say she loves him as much as me, but I think she's just in heat ¬ ¬

Bad.Ass.
