... even if she's almost the same age as my parents.

I was going to write a review about it, but decided against it. There is some good and some bad and that is better reserved for a forum discussion, but overall I really enjoyed it. It seems that some people will either love it or hate it depending on how well they can connect to the characters. I wasn't so hot on the concepts but dang did I really feel empathy. 3D is a must, I went to a cheap theatre that had it.

Some people are comparing it to D9 or say that D9 is better, but they're also picking at faults that D9 is guilty of too. I kind of felt D9 was just another Matrix thing but I'll leave it at that as I don't think it's exactly fair to compare the two.

It snowed here a couple of days ago but not very much. Not unusual for where I live, though, just wish there was more than what we have.

Oh, and I was apart of a secret santa thing on CA.org and just got my present today. ~YoitisI ended up being my secret santa and I flipped out when I recognized the name and what he drew me made me incredibly happy. I'll have to take a picture of it sometime as my scanner is too small. Go check him out, though.

Happy holidays!

for the sub! It's been a while since I've had one.

Speaking of money, all the money I got from commissions? Ended up having to spend it all on packages sent and received(only took two to accomplish that.) I don't have time this month to really do bigger commissions because I'm busy drawing gifts out. I can still probably squeeze in some speed paint commissions, though. So if you're interested, please consider one. I'm back where I am a month ago.

15$ Speed paint commissions:

I'm also thinking of really getting back into 3D stuff. I know the basics, I'm just fuzzy on some of texturing stuff and I've never completed a high poly model before. Should be fun, paying 3Dtotal a visit

because they have awesome tutorials. 3D modelling was what I originally wanted to do before concept art, and they work well together, so might as well get to it.

I also have something big coming. You'll see it soon enough.

And commissions. I've only had three so far, need more. Will open up more slots if I get enough attention. I'm also open for full pieces which will be 40$ to remain cheap.

The documentary I worked on two years ago(I'm listed under GhostFX in the credits) just won a Gemini Award. For those who aren't Canadian, the Gemini is an award for the television broadcasting industry here in Canada. Tiger Spirit won the Donald Brittain Award for Best Social/Political Documentary Program. I've watched the documentary myself, and I found it very interesting. I believe I've linked it before but I'll do it again: [link]

I know the posters(with my artwork) were all around Toronto at one point and I know it's been through several film festivals, but for some reason I can't really get myself to feel all that excited about it. I mean in most cases, artists are only recognized by other artists, it's not like music or film where everyone knows who they are. Besides, a job's a job, you do it and you get it done, you move onto the next one.

I'm just sick of arguing at this point. Let's make this as short and to the point as possible... don't judge me based on my age, gender or nationality. I am not you, so don't treat me as if I have your same quirks. I've had people trying to be armchair psychiatrists, put me in stereotypes where I don't belong, and overall it's bothersome to have someone tell me how I am, when they don't really know me that well. I'm sorry, but you don't. I'm not naive, I'm not how you speak of me, in fact, I'd wager you've made up what I'm like in your head. Don't put words in my mouth, don't assume, just take me for what I am and go from there. I don't need to be patronized. This isn't to everyone, of course, this is a little more specific but I'll leave it at that. I'm just a bit tired of being misunderstood by people who take me out of context.

Also, has anyone read Lone Wolf and Cub? I don't normally read comics, but I think it's probably one of the best comics ever written. It's not cheesy, it's not too over the top, it doesn't try too hard to be meaningful. It's just a very honest story.

--
Because I'm poor(when haven't I been?) and I need to at least make something before my medical bills get heavy. OHIP doesn't cover everything and taking expensive medicine is not fun, but I need it. I've done well with commissions in the past, and where I am, part time jobs were hard to get before the recession. I don't deal well mentally with any job that deals with handling money upfront(the doctor told me to quit because I was having break downs and have gotten worse mentally since, that was five years ago.) and I have a hearing issue with taking in information so I can't work at a call centre either(number one reason why I hate phones and ventrillo.) And at least art is something I know I can do and leaves me enough time to do the math out on paper(can't do it in my head, I have to prepare my change before I even buy something.) It's not about anything else right now, I need to deal with the meds first. At least something to get back in the swing of things, and I'll see if I can get more jobs. At least therapy is covered.

So I'll do 15$ commissions, full colour, but speed painty-ish. Only take paypal, note me with details.

I'll see if I can get at least 5 slots.

: This guy has some awesome paints. Really classic high-quality stuff.

: Great sense of value and interesting subjects. It's going to be fun watching him grow.

: I originally saw this guy's fanart on another site and had no clue he was on DA, or that he was working on some cards. I really like his work, it's very solid, like I could touch it.

: This guy has a line-quality that makes me envious. He's currently got a comic series going called TENANTS, you should check it out.

: Back when I was still new to the Internet, I realized I could search for werewolves stuff and art and find other information instead of just looking at TV sites. I found this guy's art on a site I don't even think exists anymore and would look at it every single day. He was a great source of inspiration for me back then and I still use that inspiration now.

: I wish there was an option where I could favourite an entire gallery. That's all I have to say.

: I really wish I could articulate what I like about certain art pieces a little bit better. And I really wish he'd upload more, this guy has some interesting concepts. Everything is detailed too. I don't know what it is about him, but he stands out to me. Often times I'll skip artists because it just looks like the same thing over and over again, but I really like his work and I've yet to put it in adequate words to explain why.

Go check them out, they could really use some more attention.

Because I just dedicated 12-14hours to art studies, finishing up some WIPs and trying to be social with some artists. I am wired. It's 8:30 AM, and I'm only a little bit tired. I'm on meds again, except they wont work for another 2-3 weeks, but I have the side effects. I have to drink more water now, which is good I guess because I never really did before. I've woken up twice where I had to rush to drink some water because I almost passed out from dehydration. I'm not used to this, hah. So 4 tall glasses a day for me, which is like the 8 regular glasses you're supposed to have. I don't know how people do this.

Art's keeping me really busy, at least I'm improving and that's the general idea. I plan to focus on proportion and form this month. Will be doing a bunch of Loomis/Bridgeman/Hogarth/Posemaniacs and some guy who's name starts with a 'V' that I can't remember. I'll probably do master copies from William Bouguereau as well, because he is awesome. I don't have much time for anything anymore, maybe a game or two here and there, chatting with friends. Wont get to watch as many streams or stream myself, and that's just as well because that hogs a lot of bandwidth and can easily go over your monthly download cap. I learned that the hard way.

The good thing about stressing over art is that it's keeping me from stressing over other things. And I'd rather have that, because when I improve people tell me so that makes it more bearable. I've been getting a lot of help lately from people on CA.org.

Well I'm off to sleep, or eat, or maybe both. Both would be good.

Keep rockin' it.

Things change, and this is more than hobby for me. This is my career. Back when I was first posting around with this account, I handled it with a more professional manner and I think it's time to bring back that mentality. My image is important in this field, so I'll probably be taking down a lot of the silly stuff and certain old art. That's not to say I wont socialize, but I'll be doing it differently.

I'm going to be busy tomorrow(heading up to Toronto) so I'll probably get around to this after the weekend.

Also, if you're a fan of Viking Metal, I highly suggest you check out TÃ½r. The Ragnorak album is especially a treat for anyone into Viking and Folk Metal.

It's beautiful outside. Grey skies, cold air, windy, candles lit in the house... yep, I'm weird. I was never meant to be a tropical person I guess. At least it makes me feel mentally able to take on things, though. It also means more Viking Metal and Celtic music for whatever reason.

There better be some decent Halloween specials on. I swear it feels like over the years people care less and less about holidays. Superficial or not, I don't care, I like them. Three years ago they had Buffy and Angel episodes playing simply for October(I know, it's still September.)

And as for the new WoW expansion, I'm pretty excited for it.

Anyway, I normally don't do journals about movies, but I felt like mentioning this one(spoilers ahead.)

I saw District 9 yesterday afternoon and it was a pretty good movie. And I know a lot of people are spazing out over it about how good it is, and I do think it's a good movie, but I also think people are hyping it up too much. I found the storyline to be a rehash of older structures but filled in with unique ideas here and there. I don't mind cliches if they're well done, but I also kind of felt that the story was pretty weak itself and became too predictable and not innovative enough. I don't know, I also felt myself laughing quite a bit because the way they inserted aliens into our world just seemed ridiculous to me. It was believable, but it just looked and sounded so silly to me. I was probably laughing at parts I shouldn't have and I wasn't the only one. The pig was awesome, I'm fairly certain that was a Half-Life 2 reference.

Overall a good film, but I wouldn't say it's mind blowing or anything. I think the real reason why people are flipping out over it is because 2009 has sucked pretty hard for movies, there haven't been that many this year worth seeing. Although I'm noticing it's starting to pick up(G.I. Joe wasn't as bad as I thought it'd be.)

But who else is excited for Sherlock Holmes?

No, it's not H1N1(swine) flu, or at least I don't think it is. Still it's a pain to draw with it seeing as the aches are starting to kick, especially the headaches. My illustrations for my portfolio I'm trying to pull together are close to being finished and then I'll toss in concepts (weapon design is loads of fun, same with armour.) Though I've been thinking of tossing in some sci-fi for good measure, but I'm not as familiar with the realm of it as as it hasn't appealed to me nearly as much. We'll see. I should draw some more mechanical things, seeing as it's good to broaden your subject matter. ORCS! IN! SPACE!

I want to draw out a big battle scene but figuring out how to add all the different people in is a pain. I've heard of people doing it on different layers of paper to fit everything in without worrying about overlapping and then drawing it all together. If you've got any ideas, let me know.

ÂO wise teacher,Â he said after playing for a bit, Âdo I have what it takes to be a great violinist?Â ÂNo,Â responded the master. Â Perhaps you would be more suited to a regular career.Â

Crestfallen, the student put away his violin, and turned with a sigh to a career in banking. And ultimately he became a successful and happy banker.

Many years later he met the master violinist again. The student-turned banker said to him ÂBecause you opened my eyes to my inadequacy as a violinist, I am now wealthy and have a stable career and a good family. It frightens me to think of the life I would have led as a second-rate violinist. Thank you for warning me away from playing the violin.Â

The master violinist smiled sadly at the banker, and replied: ÂI tell all of the students they are inadequate. It is the ones who choose not to listen to me that have the stubbornness to succeed.Â

As I was making my way through a forum to get to a '101' thread, I saw another that interested me and I opened it up. One of the responses was the above and I decided it was worth sharing.

Recently, `GH-MoNGo told me about this new show on Spike called Deadliest Warrior. Basically what they do is they take warriors from different parts of the world, sometimes in different eras it seems, and then they go through testing the different weapons and armour by tracking the speeds, bringing in people who train professionally in these arts, testing the armour, etc... they've got a doctor to check out the wounds as well and computer equipment. It's a pretty fun show to watch, especially when someone gets humbled when some armour tests stop them in their tracks. A lot of trash talk goes on from both sides.

As a whole, I think it's a good show to see how the weapons work and how they affect the body, but the simulations are unrealistic I found. There is only so much you can do with computer simulation and it's hardly accurate. That doesn't mean that they weren't right, but they're trying to put human reactions in calculated numbers into something that is organic. The only way we're going to find out who wins is if we had a true to life battle but that wouldn't be possible without doing something illegal. So that's my only gripe with it and I'm taking the simulations with a grain of salt just because they're unreasonable... that and the fact that I think they didn't really show in the first episode how many types of gladiators there were and that they were slaves from other armies.

I'm working a lot on my art as of late, a lot of things going on in my life but I'm trying to work through it. I see small glimpses of a light at the end of the tunnel, so I think I'm almost there and it's way over due.

What a relief. I'm just waiting to see if anything bad is going to happen, though. I've been having this weird tendency where one good thing will happen and it'll be followed by a lot of bad.

Also, yesterday I just wrote the most embarrassing thing in the world and I'm never going to put it up here. I originally did it for the lulz because everyone else thought it'd be hilarious but then it got too serious and apparently people liked it.
And now apparently one of my friends printed it out and showed it around to her class... I FEEL SO AWKWARD. But it was awesome at the same time.

I'm currently working on a commission, but I've been wanting to draw some of my Orcs. Maybe the newest one, Magyar, who is quite interesting to say the least. One of these days I'm going to make an Orc with the classic limited intelligence. Not that my Orcs are geniuses, but they're probably on par with barbaric humans.

1. choose a few of your own characters.

Enydimon Darkhilde
Morigar Axeripper

(SILVER GETS SHAFTED!

1. "Who/what are you?"
Enydimon: I'm a minotaur, not a cow.
Morigar: I'm an orc an' so is he. *motions to Magyar*
Wessle: I'm a big boy!
Annette: ... Ehh, I am French?

"Do you have any brothers or sisters?"

Wessle: I do have one older sister. Unfortunately, my uncle punched her as an infant but she's alright nowadays!
Annette: Non.
Magyar: None that I remember.

"What's your height?"

Enydimon: I am a bit taller than most of my kind. I stand at 7'5".
Morigar: I'm 6'0", just right for an Orc.
Magyar: *glares at Morigar* I'm 5'7" and just fine the way I am.
Wessle: I am a giant among the gnomes and the dwarves; my true friends. They say my robes are most radiant and delightful~.
Annette: *Raises a brow at Wessle* Ouai... I am 5'4".
Magyar: *leans his arm on Annette's shoulder*

Annette: Ugh.

"How old are you?"

Enydimon: In a minotaur's lifetime, I am considered to be 32 years of age.
Morigar: 35.
Magyar: Young and 27. *tips his hat*
Annette: What kind of question ees zhis? I am 24.
Wessle: I believe I've lost count. Hah, since when do numbers matter anyway?
Morigar: Uh, aren't you a mage?
Wessle: What of?
Morigar: Never mind.

"Are you a virgin?"

Enydimon: I... uhh... well that is to say, I have a wife...
Morigar: What kind of question is this?
Magyar: Have you heard what they say about short Orcs?

Annette: Huh, who told you zhat- Oh, I am going to neuter zhat boy! *Picks up a butcher's knife*

Enydimon: SHUT UP!
Morigar: That's vile!
Wessle: Does she smell bad when you...?
Enydimon: It's not like that!

I got a message from my uncle last night on the date it's being aired on History Television. 8pm Eastern time. We did the animation sequence with the rabbit and the tiger in case you're wondering.

This is my first professional work and it's going to be televised which is really cool. Definitely going to help my portfolio. Catch it if you can!

Also, I saw the doctor about my piriformis area again and they're going to inject it with quartazone. I'm told it's either works, half works or doesn't work at all. It's kind of random, but I'm hoping this will solve my problem.

For those of you who don't know, I worked on this documentary: [link] that poster is my drawing (though I didn't edit it)and there's an animation in there that I did with my uncle. I got two posters this Christmas from him so I could show people and have one for my portfolio. I might scan it up for you guys to see.

Unfortunately, there's always a downside when good things start happening, right? Well, I wont say what happened, because it's just added drama, but it's been very unsettling for me. I'm trying not to let it ruin the start of my year, and it's times like these I wish I had a punching bag to deal with my anger and emotional tendencies. Maybe then I wouldn't do or say things that I probably shouldn't, and wouldn't take them out on people accidentally.

So, does anyone here still play Quake III? I need to blow things up, but it might be more fun with someone else.

Comment on this journal if you do.

Also, here are some random silly videoclips.

I was on vacation in Toronto for about a week, so I pretty much had to roll my face across the keyboard and delete some journals.

Resolutions? Nah, because they rarely, if ever, work. People think that a year changing is a marker for things to suddenly get different, and that might be true in some regards. It's a way to record a specific time, but when it comes to personal goals you have to kind of do that by yourself. A date isn't going to fix that for you if all you're doing is talking but not walking. You gotta act on it for it to be effective, or at least, that's the way I view resolutions. You shouldn't have to wait for the new year to change something about yourself.

I'm feeling kind of sick and burnt out right now. I just want to sleep and do something relaxing.

Have a good year, everyone. Hope it's a good one.

Remember my leg problem? Well I think I've pin pointed it to the piriformis as it seems to be the right area. It could possibly be piriformis syndrome and it's really killing me. Actually, terrible news, it wont allow me to sleep because it hurts so much. :C

So, I'm going to try to see the doctor, about several things actually, but hopefully I can do a few exercises to remedy it. I actually found some good exercises on youtube and two of them loosened it up some, but not entirely so it's still hurting. I've also tried a heating pad but it doesn't work very well. I think it might be a wise decision to check in with a doctor though.

In other news, we randomly got hit with 1-2 feet of snow. Seriously, one moment the ground was bare, then three hours later there was snow everywhere. It was insane, that never happens this early.

I also had the chance to watch The 13th Warrior. It was good but my only gripe is that the guy learned a language in such a sort time. If any of you know of more movies, let me know.

But you know what's been bothering me lately? The lack of holiday tv shows. I mean, last year I thought it was bad, but this year it's even worse. Thankfully they had Charlie Brown And The Great Pumpkin and you know the Simpsons are obviously going to be on with their Treehouse of Terror.
Other than that, it's just been regular TV programming and maybe the rare movie here and there.

What gives? I find out that one of the youth channels over here aren't really celebrating it until today! And I don't really see any other channels, youth or otherwise really doing anything special. And if you save all that stuff until the day it's on, most people are either out to a party or trick or treating and what have you... they probably even aren't going to see this stuff. And I have both American and Canadian programming up here.

I know holidays can get commercial and all, but I like my TV specials. And even Christmas is starting to follow suit.

Ah, well, what can you do?

In a rich man's world.

I'm trying to accomplish what I can this month and the stuff that needs to be done before November but it's difficult and stressing me out to no end. And I'm stressing out even more because I can't afford things that I actually need.

I really need a new computer. It's to the point where soon I wont be able to do anything with it, so I'm at a point where I need to upgrade ASAP. I'm trying to build one, and I found all the parts I need and it's about 40-100$ out of my league without shipping and tax. It's not expensive as far as computers go but even if I did have that money around, I still need to buy other things.
It's getting frustrating because I don't have a job right now, but it has to wait until next month. I don't have the financial means to get other stuff that I need too.
But it's not just things I need, I want to take up violin again and get into dance but I don't have money for that. My head phones are also falling apart.

I'm stressing out so bad that it's affecting my health. And speaking of health, I'm trying to get a bloody appointment out of the way so I at least know I have it, but that's being difficult.

Ahhhhh... I guess I'm just going to have to tough it out. I'm not sure when things are going to work themselves out but I can't do anything now.

I've decided I'm just going to go for an apprenticeship. For a while I was contemplating college but I don't think it's for me. I already have stress issues and an anxiety disorder, I wouldn't be able to deal with the drama of college kids, roommates and classes where I feel totally lost in. Plus, knowing professionals in my family helps, they've both advised me that it'd be better for me to take an apprenticeship route. So, I'm just going to work on my art hardcore next month so I can get together a portfolio.

I'm also going to get a haircut soon. Going to try a fauxhawk because I think it'd look good on me and a change of pace will be good. If I don't like it, my hair grows back fast, I'll try something else. Though some suggestions would be nice, I've got blonde hair if that helps.

I just needed to vent somewhere. My anxiety has been extra high and so has my temper. I'd like to say I feel better now but I don't.

Better than keeping it in though.

All humour aside, my mother is in the hospital. :C

She's got blood poisoning because a urine infection got into her bloodstream and now she has a really bad fever. We just found out she's allergic to the antibiotic too and she had a really rough night in the hospital.

I told her when Dancing With The Stars is on and she has a TV there, so hopefully that'll help some.

After I finish up a commission, I'm pretty much looking to do more. I'm pretty cheap(I should probably raise my prices just a little), but I'm fairly quick too. I could use some cash while I'm still looking around for a job, so any help would be appreciated.

Anyway, I needed a journal about the little challenge I'm holding.

The whole point of this is to find a song that would fit your character as a theme song. Once you have that theme picked out then take a close look at the lyrics and illustrate it all in a storyboard fashion. When you're done, leave in the description the lyrics and bold the ones that you have illustrated.

Be sure to drop me a note that you've done it so I can display it on my journal.

I know its very possible that not many will do this. But even if its one or two, I'd still be happy

Aside from that, I got some pretty cool things in the works. Something has come up that requires my attention more often though. I have to take a leadership role again, I'm not sure how its gonna go but so far it seems to be ok.

And I'm finally gaining weight. I finally got off of the pills I was on, pills that I never needed, but I'm off of them now. It was killing my appetite and made it hard for me to gain any weight at all. So that means I'll be at normal weight soon and I can do more than just tone.

So its that time of the year where I get the tech tv for two months as a promo. I have to say I'm not impressed with how Attack of the Show turned out.

Man, I post too many journals, lol.

So going to have lots of pie today. Its going to be awesome! If anyone knows me, you'd know that I have a HUGE sweet tooth. Watching some kiddy halloween shows too.

Now I gotta think of what I want to be for halloween. I want to see how much longer I can pull off getting free candy.

I've been looking up prices for tablet screens, so far I've only seen 2456$ or something like that. I'll keep looking, I really want one because it'll be easier but I don't have a lot of money. Heck, I only got 25$ that I've been saving for a few months now.

And speaking of my art, I think I know why its been dull. Lately people have told me my art is too posed and theres no real story or action behind it. So I'm going to try harder to add those things into my art more often.

And BTW, I setup a new Xfire account. I didn't like the name of my last one.
Add enydimon if you ever want to talk. And if you don't know what Xfire is, its an instant messenger that allows you to play your games full screen and talk to people. It also tells you what game your friends are playing, the server and their gaming profile.

Throm'ka!

Ok, more than ever do I wish winter would come now.

Lastnight there was this huge storm that came into the area. It covered the entire lower half of Ontario and some of the worst parts were over my house.

Sheet lightning, windy and tons of rain. Wind and rain don't bother me but lightning does. Some of the loudest thunder I ever heard, I was in the basement with my dog.

Gah, I was just as unnerved as the dog. I felt like I was going to vomit for some reason, I guess I was just really freaked out. Woke up at 4am and didn't get to bed until 6am when the storm settled a bit. So I had 6 hours of sleep and then I had to go to school. So I was barely awake when I got there and at 10am another packet of storm came in and I started feeling sick again.

Geeze, this has been a pretty ugly day. First time in a while that I feared a tornado coming even if there were no warnings and if the sky wasn't green.

See, if it was winter I wouldn't have to worry about these things, lol.

Well, I came up with an idea for a drawing of my werewolf but I'm still in a bit of a rut. I can't think of backgrounds and poses to go with them.

But its not like I have to upload artwork all the time... I just feel like my gallery's empty and plain.

Anyway, I hope you aren't freaked out of your mind by some stupid storm.

I forgot how pissy people can get on DA.
Ah well, all I can do is laugh.

I've been feeling drained from this cold. Its at the point where its going to get worse, I don't really mind.

I need a break, just one day at least to recover from everything. Things just keep hitting me in the face and I'm praying for it to calm down a little.

But enough about my problems.

I'm still tinkering around with the idea of a warcraft tournement or Quake III session. I'm still not sure about it yet.

I'm working on getting my pvp rank in WoW up, and I've been doing a pretty good job so far. Just one more rank and I can get the first full pvp armour set. Its also very relaxing, I just wish I could find something like a game that would stop anxiety attacks at school, rofl.

I've also seen some improvements in my drawing skills lately, its not huge but I'm happy with how its going. Of course, when I'm ready to progress again, I'll think everything looks bad. Well, at least I know when I'm making a breakthrough.

edit: I just thought of an idea. I was thinking of drawing my werewolf dude, Silverclaw in a Starcraft mechsuit. Anyone got any ideas for poses?

I've caught a cold. So far it feels like a head cold and my nose hurts. But this is one of those times where I do want to be sick. I really want a break from school and just rest or relax. I like school and its only been almost a month, but I want a break, lol.

Listening to: Just breathe-Anna Nalick

I got a lot of stress built up.

Today I had to do my solo for my vocals class. I've never had much of a problem getting up and singing infront of people but its been basically a year since I've done it infront of anyone.

I didn't think I'd be as nervous as this though... I was shaking, not just the legs or the knees. My WHOLE body. I've never been that nervous before, but I guess its just everything hitting me at once.

When I finished my neck had a spot where there was all this pressure. That kind of worried me. After you sing the teacher comes up and gives you constructive criticism, and shes really nice about it. So I was afraid I messed up on a line and had to get her to show me how to do it, instead she said my problem was with my vowels. They were too far apart and apparently the next unit focused a lot on vowels... so we did the basic exercises and she showed me how to do it properly.

Classmates were really encouraging too, but my nerves are still going right now. My back is killing me and my neck is sore. I took a hot shower to relax the muscles but I'm worried if I let all this stress build up, not only will my neck start to hurt but I may get ulcers or high blood pressure.

Colouring drawings in photoshop has slowed down. I feel like I have all these things to do but I don't have time for it and I rush it and it kills me. I want to put more into my gallery, I want to colour for myself but I feel bolted down.

Theres no place to get away from it.

I found out that my brother left a capoeira book here. I didn't know until he told me. I'll have to check it out.

Yeah, I found out last year that I'm allergic to drawing-charcol... so guess what happened? I forgot.

It wasn't until I looked up into the mirror and saw it on my face that I remembered. Its not a severe allergy, but it gives me a headache and it burns after a while. Actually, its starting to now.

Yeah, that was pretty retarded of me. GAH, IT BURNS!.. I think I got some inside my nose. I'm pretty messy with my art so thats no surprise.

I'm still trying to figure out how I should re-design my page. Like colours and designs... My favourite colour is blue but I'm not sure if it'd look good for this sort of thing.

Poses are hard to come up with sometimes. Been trying to draw another werewolf picture but nothings coming to mind.

Listening to: Send a Prayer-The Gentleman

Ever want to do a bunch of things and complete what you need to but feel like you don't have enough time? I'm feeling it right now.
I can especially tell because I'm getting acid reflux again which means I'm stressing.

I'm also feeling like this page looks kind of dull. Like my ID and my journal look boring, and I'm not sure if it really shows who I am. If any of you have any ideas for it or come up with a design, it'd be much appreciated. Stamp is the only thing that works with it.

I'm kind of torn between what I want to draw. I'll want to draw so many things at once that I don't know WHAT to draw at all.

I want to find some time to play WoW normally again. House is crowded and I get asked for a lot of things to do. Also school really makes me even more tired. I just hope I don't snap with so many people around, some people don't understand why I've been edgey and they should since its pretty obvious.

I really want to take capoeira, but I don't know where to find a trainer or if I have the money for it. I think that would really help with all this... that and I want to flip around like some crazy person. If you don't know what capoeira is, google it.

Tonight theres going to be new Simpsons! And next sunday they're going to show Angel as a tribute to all the discontinued/cancelled shows.

I can smell frost coming(yes, I can smell it) which is another good thing. I love snow and the air will be clearer. So not everything is bad, well, nothing was really bad to begin with. Just stress.

I'm trying really hard for this and I got people at my church praying for me, and even if I don't win they're going to throw me a party anyway. I think this could be a big break for me and I think this is something I'm meant to do. So, any support would be great, I'm really serious about this.

I saw Pirates on Monday, it was good. A lot of surprises and nice action... way funnier than the first.

"I've got a bottle of diiiirt!"
and
"..Dirt?"
"If joo want... I can take it back."
".....No*hugs dirt*"

And my guild's officers are finally back from vacation! Now we can get around to setting up raids

So anyway... thats all there is for this journal.

And I'm terribly tired...
I'm going to try and get more art up and I hope you guys like it... or something?

Anyway, I take commissions so send me a note if you're interested and we'll talk. I don't feel like posting the information here, I need the money though.

So take a look at my art and tell me what you think
