anyways, for once I guess I'll make a serious journal entry. probably I've never talked about why the heck I do feeble sporadic pieces some can dare to call art. I've read a lot of things from artists over the years, talking about how they want to express their creativity and that they want to have their ideas drawn out visually. their motivation, their ideals, their influences all rest in their artwork. To tell the truth, I'm not like that. Not at all. Art, whatever form it is, to me is something I enjoy looking at. the most I guess I can do is emulate. There's no motivation in me to take art seriously, like something that'll engulf my heart and soul. Blood and sweat. Whatever. so then, why do i do it? just cause it looks cool .

my parents are suggesting i go to the doctor. too bad though. i hate doctors. they used to make me wait 2 hours in their little check up room, and when he arrived, the guy (sometimes woman) would ask "what's wrong?" i'd tell him (or her) and he would do the standard tongue check, eye thing, etc. then he'd leave after 5 minutes, and spend another hour having a coffee break with his buddies. when he (or she) came back, they'd tell me to take the same damn medicine i was already taking. it was really annoying lol.

anyways hope u guys liked my little rant.

as for other things, well, i'm being gangbanged at school haha. i don't get trig at all...but meh, maybe it'll change. i've gone back to writing a little, but after a heated 3 hours a day thing a few weeks ago, it's sorta tapered off again. tried drawing and uhh...just like GFX lol. i stare at the paper and i throw it away even though nothing's on it XD.

so what the hell have i been doing? i gone back to reading a lot . Ted Dekker ftw lol. even went back to my time of reading and walking. it's perfected, so no accidents XD. i'd try backwards again, but i'm sure i'd get pwnt this time.

anyways, getting interested in cinematography. not that i've even looked at anything. but am thinking about it lol.

and...let's see...what else to say. oh right. uhm...

uh

thanks for reading? lol.

1. Exams.
2. I've had the worst abuse to my body since my 5-year lasting cold (which sounds impossible, but go look at the 20 doctors I visited)
3. Death.
4. Really really...gone so FUCKING slow.
5. So far away...
6. It's supposed to be the rainy season, yet it's been like freaking sun all month. feels like summer..-.- damn heat.
7. It just sucks.

yeah, had to put it out here.

upcoming stuff...

-another tag wall maybe. depends on how much time i get without my parents at home .

-maybe another render pack for fun.

- Brushpack...err 31?

Chancy stuff...

- mat pack? a slim chance lol.

- tutorial? i doubt it since u guys can probably get it all over DA.

- collab? depends on if anyone notes me and if im able to scrap up anything xD.

Bad news: I just had a rough bout of stomach flu. Came around Tuesday, killed me all Tuesday, Destroyed me on Wednesday night, and finally abated a bit today. My dad blames my computer-using O_O? Oh and my grades are dropping >< what a shame.

anyways, a week without a mouse made me itching to do some painting XD. im still a complete novice at that, but i might try something.

meanwhile @_@ i've been working with Rhino3D for the past few months and finally completed a computer monitor, albeit a simple one lol. anyways, dono what to do next, so any suggestions.

also for those that noted me for collabs, my bad. the comp problem hindered me, so just wait up .

meanwhile, in gfx class, im sucking cause we're doing op art patterns i hav no imagination xD

peaz.

O_O i feel like im failing my 9th grade graphics class XD we're drawing patterns and op art >< and as i hate measuring, all my work is smudgy . Well at least I'l learn illustrator in this class.


I haven't touched c4d in about a week or two now O_o and i've been using the same god-forsaken render for the month XD. maybe ill release it soon too.

o.O i want collabs cause im dying here lol.


Peaz Dac,

On PS, it's one of those slump days where I'm too lazy to find renders or anything to even make a tag XD. So basically, in this time, im honing on writing a little and drawing/doodling. Maybe this journal wil give me an incentive to do something.

Finals are thankfully over, but because of some really strange circumstances, my grades dropped, still at A's, but lesser from the 100+'s i had :/. T___T and they were all out of my hands...my lazy hands and damned fate plotting against me to make teachers miss my work. ....damn it all XD and we got like a ton of homework the first day into second semester. Pray for me at my funeral please.

Peaz- Dac.

and melted
till
there was only
pavement
and no white
now, it's 4 in the afternoon and suddenly, it starts blizzarding again. we got about 3 inches....and now it's stopped. weather says it'll be off and on all night...>_> so im wondering..WILL I GET OUT OF SCHOOL? XD....

Updates for Art

i've been experimenting with c4d, but i'm looking around for tuts or hints on modelling and...there's not that much around. anyone kno someone tell me . im also looking into effects c4d..and some more knowledge towards pw.

expect something soon.

]]> ~DacManiac http://DacManiac.deviantart.com/journal/11285128/ http://DacManiac.deviantart.com/journal/11285128/ Tue, 02 Jan 2007 07:52:43 PST . XD so my art thing is probably gonna go down, too much inspiration, not enough time, wasted thoughts. so dont expect much but ill be continuing my experiments and hope to achieve C4D render perfection XD. then i can start on PW...my weak spot T___T. just an update.



and to those, happy post Christmas/New Years.


powah!

I feel like I haven't improved a bit since I got here lol, just found bigger things to play with. I've been trying a lot of new stuff over the break, but really, I gotta push up some imagination lol. So, i'm currently gonna try lots of experiments, so take a look in the scraps later XD.

other news....
i cant wait for the day bill gates dies

got my ipod back all shiny and new XD had the plastic covering on it for 3 days till i got tired of the wheel being jammed.
