So far all the classes are interesting mostly because their either fun , or extremely useful , I really like my Ad and Graphic design classes so far.

I've kept busy so far so I'll try to start uploading some of the school I get done.

*Also*
I might actually sumbit a story, (with like words n'sh*t, ya dig?)
It's going to be AWESOME! Its going to be a fanfic featuring a crossover between "Inuyahsa" , "GI Joe" and "Grease(The musical)". Main character will be Gordan Freeman and he'll find love with Olivia Newton-John while battling demons sent by Cobra.
...........................................epic.






It'll either be that or something else, either way if I do it won't be on this site, I'll open up a fictionpress.com account and drop a link here. Anyway hope everybody is doing well, now I have to get back to outlining my story (I can't decide whether to make John Travolta into an androgynous bisexual demonic alienspawn villian)

Thankfully I've been able to go to the beach this summer, Wednesday is going to be the big Atlantic City Airshow should be awesome , we've got the airforce thunderbirds coming in.

School at CCAD is coming up , I think I'm more relaxed about it this time than the last. The first time around I had never been outside of New Jersey I just wanted to get a degree and go back. Columbus was kinda weird ,strange people and strange things I'd never seen, didn't really think I'd care but when I came this summer I felt kinda restless just coming back to my small town for the summer. As stupid as it may sound I never really considered life outside of New Jersey. To be honest I don't think I really want to spend next summer in New Jersey, I think I want to strike it out on my own , I've got a few places in mind already.

Well thats all thats been happening till school in a few days, again apologies if I didn't respond to any messages, but hopefully I'll have the chance to respond within a resonable amount of time for now.

I already know that I'm not going to draw comics or do the types of illustrations that you see here for a living. This stuff is mostly just for hobby intrest. I had planned to do illustration work for local advertisment companies and firms, a safe bet.
But even still there is no certainty that it will work out either.
Maybe it's just that there are too many options , I've always liked to have a plan for most big things. But there are too many possiblities and uncontrollable factors to arrive at a completely accurate forecast.
Or maybe it's nothing and I'm just getting apprehensive.

Anyway schools almost out here in CCAD and in 3 weeks I'll finally be able to go back home for the summer , which is great , I mean Columbus and Ohio are, well ,okay sorta but I really like New Jersey and I prefer my small town. Also Jersey has got a beach , nice.

I got a job back home and I also be doing volenteer work at the local wildlife refuge and maybe I'll even be able to hook up a position doing an internship at a local Advertising and graphic design agency.

Well thats about all for now hopefully as summer comes about I'll have more time to do my own work and upload some more stuff.

Anyway see you around

, Also sorry I haven't replied to any comments really is just really time constrictions to all who commented and favorited please you have my honest thanks

I haven't really done any finished pieces beyound few daily sketch exercises. I'm not really out of ideas just out of motivation to get any real big product done.

Hopefully I'll start updating some good quality stuff in a couple of days. I think I'll invent some artificial deadlines that'll do it.

Anyway hope your all having a great summer , Oh yeah and use sunscreen I ALWAYS forget that one.

PA (east): After cruising over the highways by philia anybody in from that state has no right to make jersey jokes. Seriously philia looks THAT bad.

PA (west): These people need to be told two things,
1.The civil war ended.
2. Hey bucket head! PA was on the union side. It was so strange seeing cars around Gettysburg with PA plates and confederate flags. Just because your a inbred redneck doesn't mean your a confederate rebel , though the similarities are compelling.

WVA: I actually had to go through a small portion of West Virginia. Forget about the historically confused Pennsylvanians
these people may truly be mentally retarded (seriously). I stopped at Cabala's which is like a Wal-Mart with guns, rocket launchers , and deer resistant APCs. I picked a bow off one of the shelves and one of the Employee's told me about it (I think , I really couldn't understand most of what he said). I don't think that man graduated 8th grade (Seriously) you those know goofy retarded redneck voice impersonations , he sounded exactly like that. What's worse is that these people handle firearms daily. They must be missing a lot toes from shooting their feet all the time.

OH: These people are. . . . . . .actually normal? After traveling west for 8 hours and see civilization slowly progress backwards I rushed back into the modern day. I was kinda suspicious at first, they were all so very nice! And I didn't even know any of them! Usually in my town if somebody moves in everybody keeps their distance and glares at them. It's the initiation rite and it usually goes on for only five to ten years.

*Other footnotes*

1. People got annoyed when I parked my car by the pump and did nothing. I was just waiting for the attendant to come so I could pay him and he could fill my tank jeez! Only thing is apparently they don't have attendants in PA,WVA,or Ohio , weird?

2. I DON'T have an accent. What is a jersey accent anyway?
The only people who call it "Joisey" are from NY anyway.

After relaxing for a bit I've now found that I got time on my hands once again , and so I hopefully won't get lazy and get busy with art. Also Contributing to this free time is my job. I had to bust out so many hours there before my graduation day, they even tried to get me to go on the day I had prom (yeah right). But anyway now that I done with school and the summer rush to the jersey shore has started my hours got cut down to four a week? Oh well.....Asshats for everybody!


Although I promised to get right down to work I still want to have a little fun so here we go with our first quiz! I got this from Guilrel I dont think he'll mind.

The Transformation Quiz

?What would you do if you became your character?

1. How would you react?
How any rational person would react. Scream and run around in circles for a couple minutes.

2. How would you handle the situation?
Go and hide, I seen alot of dragon or wolf avatars but I'm a rat , nobody likes rats.

3a. What would you do if it happen (in front of a crowd)?
Hopefully the crowd will be freaked out in the process of me being freaked out and I can run for the sewers.

3b. (at home or in your room)?
Go to sleep and hope for the best in the morning.

3c. (In front of your family)?
Well first off I think everybody at the dinner table will have lost their appetite so after I run off I'll come back later that evening and poke through the garbage cans.

3d. (lost at some place such as a building or a forest)?
Wow that's the best, now we don't have to worry about running away and escaping because we're already lost, convenience!

4a. What would be the hardest part about your character (physically)?
No exactly as small as the usually rat , a bit more draconic sized , not easy to hide, at least outside of the sewers.

4b. (powers, if any)?
As a giant dragon rat who spends alot of time around or in sewerage I don't think I smell so great . . . . wow this power sucks.

4c. (mentally, like any instinct or personality problems)?
Personality , hmm actually I'd think I can easily things the rats way.

4d. (eating habits)?
This is kinda of instinct thing , but what do rat dragon's eat? Dumpster dinner yah!

5a. Who could you tell about this transformation (family members) ?
Brother . . . . . . . maybe.

5b. (friend, like a next door neighbor, you don't have to say their name) ?
"Local News:Large rat creature reported in local area scares locals and disappears into sewers" I don't think I'd have have too

5c. (net friend) ?
You really think I'd could get to a computer like this? Wow.

6. Would you become a Hero, Villian, or Neutal/Civillian?
I'd say neutral , but everybody else would think villian. But then again the darkside is cool and they do have cookies

8. What would be the biggest thing to change about your transformation?
Aside for EVERYTHING , it would be loosing touch with family friends etc.

8a. What about your career or future dream?
Hmmm , Problaly enviromental awarness , cause everyone's going to clean up if the hear a giant rat has come into town. That and since I draw rats already I suppose if I changed I could just do photographic self portraits , life just got easier!

9. Can you still talk?
Sure , but I don't people will stick around long enough to want to hear me speak.

10a.There is a cure but...you have to leave on big journey
The thing about my avatar is that he's kinda heavily influnced by parasite infested him so I think it'd steer me away from any kind of cure. After its' life is on the line.

10b. ...you have to switch "species" with someone
Nah

10c. ...you have turn a lot of people into whatever your character is.
For minions absolutely! As for a cure see 10a.

10d. ...you have to kiss your true love.
That'd be fine and easy , as a human as a rat creature ummmm that would happen around when the sun becomes a lump of coal the size of a ping pong ball.... ]]> ~JerzeyDragon http://JerzeyDragon.deviantart.com/journal/17852836/ http://JerzeyDragon.deviantart.com/journal/17852836/ Mon, 14 Apr 2008 17:13:25 PDT
Anyway I always out looking for new things to draw so if there's anything that you want just tell. I really just want to draw what people want to see.

So again thanks, Now back to work (tired sigh)

]]> ~JerzeyDragon http://JerzeyDragon.deviantart.com/journal/17064157/ http://JerzeyDragon.deviantart.com/journal/17064157/ Mon, 25 Feb 2008 19:36:43 PST I planned to apply to local colleges in Jersey and take something in science, biology, psychology or somethingology. I put out applications to Stockton State and other nearby schools for the same subjects.
I also sent one to school out of state.
I really wasn't expecting to get anything back but just last weekend I did get something back from them.
An acceptance letter
I've been accepted at Columbus College of Art and design in Columbus Ohio. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . .. . . .. . . . . .. . . . . . .. . . . . .. . . .. . .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . .. .. . . . . . .holy sh*t!
I would have never foreseen this, I just started drawing in late july 05 and now I've been accepted for illustration.
I'm nervous because just recently while I was taking some classes in Philia , An illustration teacher displayed to me and a few friends some of the work of his class. Now although Almost all of them were excellent there was three amazingly bad ones , I could draw better than these people and I NEVER EVER said anything like that to or about anybody Ever. The worst part was they were juniors and it wasn't like they had to take his class for makeup credit or anything they were illustration majors.
From that I found out that these colleges sometimes just let people who can't really draw into their schools. And even though I had assurances from various art teachers and friends to go for it , I'm still very apprehensive about a final decision.
I've grown to love doing fantasy art in the past 2 1/2 years and the thought of going to college and doing this as a career for the rest of my life is nothing short of thrilling.
But the fear of ruining myself with hopeless undertaking is just as intense. Although most people achieve a living I've seen a few poor souls heading to destruction. Suicide doesn't have to take 4 years and 80 grand it can be done in one second for under 10 bucks.
The letter sits on my desk , I still have yet to affirm , jeez I thought the stressful part would be trying to get in , not deciding whether to go or not. I am sooooo good at inventing problems for myself.

I really appreciate all those other artists I've meet and I can't wait to see all the new work for the coming year!

Again thanks for all the friendings!

Really not any fun the only pictures that ever get into it are black and white photos of moping emo losers and pictures of the beach (also black and white)

My grade is depending on me to make something that is both "fine" artisty and of relative quality but it has to be complete bullsh** too.

And in terms of "deepness" I'm about as deep as a shot glass.

I had one idea bout taking a photo of a torn open coke can and putting a toy gun in front of it and calling it "coke blast"

but its a no go because it's suggestive of violence and drug abuse.

I'll be brainstormin for a while , if anybody has any suggestions I'm open , please do let the BS flow freely,

Thanks

My friend made a funny poem about the lit mag , if he can find it , I'll get his permission to post it , pretty funny, it's what really deserves to be in a lit mag!

You know your a bad driver when you mess up on the Jersey road test. . . twice
Anyway if you see me on the road , might just want to get outta the way

I feel I should go out of state for college not for wild and crazy partying and freedom but just to perhaps to make sure I can manage myself on my own. That and perhaps to see whats outside of jersey.
Shame I won't get far though , I mean cars run outa gas some time and I don't know how to pump gas. (We've got attendents to do that for us in Jersey)
