Heh, it's been a lil while hasn't it?

I haven't posted anything new in a while. But I do have drawings that I have done off and on. But I've been recently trying to lessen my time of art lately.

Though I do still have that injury with my right hand. Bruised knuckles. Dr. said that I bruised the bone that time in March... So bruised bones tend to heal slowly, and as slow as in that it probably wont lose its soreness for a year and some months. (I know cause I've bruised my tail-bone and couldn't sit homie style for 2 years.) I do struggle a little bit to complete my work when using my right hand.

But I'm not at peace with myself from my recently past heartache. And I guess I'm not too upset about whats going on with my hand. Some ways I don't think I'd care if my hand was so injured I couldn't draw with it anymore. My art lately hasn't been making me happy like it use to. Nor the work to complete it.

But thats all I had to say.

I gave someone all of me. 100% and I didn't get the same in return.

Why show your feelings when you cant give all of you? I can't stand it. I still care for the girl, but I hate that I'm now left all alone. I dont care what my friends and family say, I may still have you people but I'm still alone. Friends and Family members dont fill that spot I'm missing.

I'm now hurting and have nothing to comfort me. I hate my family, I hate where I am, I hate this world. Love is nothing but another pain that the humanity doesn't know how to use it.

Sigh...

Now since really no one cares, next thing is to do the craziest shit out there. I can do whatever the hell I want right?

Me an a couple friends of mine have been writing Fan stories for the old Swat Kats tv show. Since the series was canceled way before finishing, we wanted to do a continued version of our own in the comics. But anyways the 3 of us will be making a personal Myspace page for the comic and a Multiply site also.

And we do have some room for some artist to jump in since I'm somewhat singled out to be the main artist in this team up.

Though the pages are being worked on right now. I'll be posting an updated date on when we get finished with first few pages of "The Death of Dark Kat". So keep an eye out.

Oh yeah I got my first blog video up. The first requested topic was about stalkers I shared what I've experienced and knew/heard from others.

I may need to tweak the background music cause the last 2 clips maybe be hard to understand me. But Note: I was trying to keep it down a bite for the people that are sleeping in my house.

Here's the video link -> [link]

Hope you enjoy it and let me know what you think. Thanks!

Hope your looking forward to my videos to come.



Sigh... 2008. And has already started somewhat crummy.

Before the new year kicked off, My ending of 2007 went straight down the toilet. Dec 25 around 2:00 pm. I went to my girlfriends place to trade our Christmas gifts with each other. (Since she wasn't able to spend Christmas with me.) I had to go to my Uncles place for Christmas dinner after I left her.

So, as we're talking for a bit as my parents wait for me in the van. (Note: It rained Christmas day.) Liz's (My girlfriend) grandmother said her husband wanted to talk to me. Liz and I looked at each other and said Uh-Oh at the same time. Sigh, so I went on inside and greeted Mr. Meridy and bid him a Merry Christmas. Thats when Our conversation began...

Mr. Meridy - So when are you gonna get your S*** together and get into school?
Me - ... I'm scheduled to leave in April sir if nothing goes wrong with the last documentations I have to give the college.
Mr. Meridy - What kind of value do you see in my granddaughter?
Me - She's a very sweet girl and I like spending time with her.
Mr. Meridy - Uh huh, well your becoming more of a distraction for her. I found out she's been sneaking around going out with you to parties and whatever else. And while she gone I;m calling her in need of attention.

(Oh yeah, note. Mr. Meridy is a 62 year old Ex-military Vietnam Vet Navel officer. He's handicap from 2 strokes has died 3 times and still alive and a bitter old fart in a motorpowered wheelchair.) Also the

Me - Sir, Liz and I are just trying to have fun before we both go our separate ways for college. (She I haven't been going to parties. They have such a tight hold on her we just hang out outside the house or at least behind it.)
Mr. Meridy - What do you need in a relationship for this early in life. Your just children. You haven't don anything been anywhere...
Me - Sir I'm 20 years old, and I have accomplished a lot. I trained guide dogs for the blind and Illustrated a book at the age of 17 that went national...
Mr. Meridy - My son has written 2 books and published them... (That was his way of flicking me off.) All I'm saying Liz has a good enough social life with out you.
Me - No she doesn't. Cause she's always having to take of you and all of your little needs and wants. (He makes Liz do everything when his wife should be taking up the slack of things. But no. Liz is does most all the dirty work.)
Mr. Meridy - ... Thats a lie, you 2 are just children. You haven't been anywhere...
Me - I have been places.
Mr. Meridy - You have, ok tell me where you've been. Tell me about yourself.
Me - With the way you are sir I dont want to tell you squat about me.
Mr. Meridy - Well you have a good day and dont come back, dont call anymore, just forget about Liz.
Me - Yeah WHATEVER!

somewhere in our argument he said If I could take care of his granddaughter than for me to take her off his hands.
(I should have called him on his bluff, he knows he needs that girl.)

That Friday after Christmas I've still been coming over to see her. But this past Wednesday Liz and her grandmother feel out and her grandmother snitched to her grandfather that I've still been coming over. Sigh, I'm having such a hard time with this relationship. And it isn't the girl its grandparents.

Ok, I've done a few art trades with a couple of people. And Yeah I've been finished with them. And my reason for not getting them up yet is cause I dont have a good scanner anymore. I've been to tired to go to church and scan them there. So it's gonna take a bit longer. But I'm sorry for the long wait.

Forgive me.

==================

Personally I haven't completed a drawing in a couple months except a quick doodle of my character Lawless. I haven't been having artist block but more of a bondage on my drawing hand. Cause I have what I want to put on paper in my head but for some reason I just can't put it on paper. Work has been kicking my hind-quarters like a whipped dog.

I'm not sure what the deal is but things have been stupid lately. Anyways, I dont know when I'll be able to present anything new to you guys so just keep watching. And I'll come back eventually.

Dear God in heaven, please give me the strength to not go rogue martial artist on the work place anytime soon. Like Limp Bizkit style of Break stuff.

I'm so stressed out and so flat out tired I'm in my emergency "fake not being nuclearly peeved" mode now. And I'm so not feeling good now that I should have a sign pointing at me that says, "DO NOT CONVERSE WITH NICK, WILL BITE IF SPOKEN TO."

No seriously, I've never been this messed up after a job. I'm spending all my time sleeping and not able to enjoy my days cause I've done slept it through the time for me to go back to work. And after the sleep I feel like I just got back from work. It's not enjoyable. I'm wasting parts of my life I can't get back.

I hope I get a nice length of time to off around thanksgiving. Sigh! My eyes have been burning a lot lately.

This a topic me and my girl Liz started talking about early this evening. Fun being able to talk about silly stuff like this with a chick.



Liz says:
well as you know there are many types of poo.
Liz says:
as u know, poo can be characterized in a few different ways, such as:
Liz says:
Ghost Poo: the poo that you seem to never see, but definitely felt going out.
Liz says:
Chicken Nugget poo: ah yes we all know this too well, poo, not worth being called a complete poo, cuz it comes out in bits like chicken nuggets
Liz says:
Torpedo poo- the poo that comes out violently, that you try to minimize but clenching the butt cheeks together, but comes out rebelliously loud and hard
Liz says:
Razor blade poo: it just hurts....
Fallen Phoenix says:
Razor blade poo??? Thats the crap that comes a while after the torpedo crap. Cause it's like after the torpedo your butt has like healed slightly, than your next crap hurts case you gotta stretch out your butt wounds again. LOL!
Liz says:
LOL!
Liz says:
Syrup poo: ah yes kids we all know this one...b.k.a " THE RUNS"
Fallen Phoenix says:
Or like to call it, stomach blended.
Liz says:
ewww
Liz says:
Fire Poo: Some results of this can occur from ; hot cheetos, spicy hot wings, spicy bean burritos, and other select foods. When fire pooh happens, you wish you never ate that last piece...
Liz says:
it tends to burn the lining of the crack, causing much discomfort and

All righty, was gonna wait till Saturday to say but here I go.

Ok news: September 30th is my 20th birthday. Yuck!

Bad news: I'm having Surgery on my Esophagus (AKA my throat) the day after my birthday. October 1st.

==================================

Ain't nothing to be really worried about. I'm cool with it. Cause I've been having trouble swallowing my food. I've been getting chocked a lot lately when eating. Not enough to be gagging or nothing I just have to take time to finish swallowing before I take a bite of something else.

Sometimes it can take me a 2 or 3 minutes till my throat clears itself. I've been having this issue since I was 16 or 17. So I'm going to get my throat stretched.

==================================

Most of my Esophagus being small was the cause of my reflux surgery when I was 2. And I've out grown the size it is now. So I'm getting this taken care off before I had off to college.

Ok...

I've had it up to the the sky with girls that turn us civilized Geeks down. And then go get the guys with the IQ of a Fruit Fly and shows a dog more respect than her. What is wrong with you women today? I know not all girls are like this but I have come to know many girls that are.

I'm sick of it. This is a constant issue for me and some of my friends have. Like when we get into talking to a girl we just met and they ask us what we like to do. Thats when it all goes down hill from there. Is there something wrong with still liking cartoons, comic books, and collecting action figures?

I'm still a man, just cause I have a hobby thats laid back doesn't mean I have a childish mind. But the backwards thing you do girls is get the completely retarded mofos. The guys that aren't gonna be worth bunk to you later in life. Here's the scenario some female friends of mine keep having they got together, they have kids, they get married probably get 2 or 3 years out of it than get divorced because "he" got tired of them trying to get him to be responsible guy. But no, He wants to continue the thug life or stay balla.

But if your happy with having the kind of guy that just thinks he's a free spirit and cheats on ya, hits ya, or doesn't act like he really wants you... Than that's cool with in some cases. But all in all I think the majority of girls/women today are morons due to the fact that they don't really know what they want or need. And today girls/women really chose bad boyfriends most of the time.

Order of the Phoenix... Good movie but really really butchered. Noticed something that should have been in the HBP. Those who hasn't seen it pay good attention.

A number of disappointments but still an ok take from the book.

Daniel Radcliff, that lucky SOB. I wanna make out with a hot Asian chick. I love Asian girls. *Sigh* Some chumps have all the luck.




1. Swollen muscles around 4 ribs (Right side / Back)
2. Sore elbows
3. Ache Knuckles (Both hands)
4. Cramping Knee (Right)

Dude I'm getting so sick of not having net connection and photoshop on my pc.

And my scanner is now a piece of crap now.

I gotta get me a new Photoshop CS from my pal chad and since I dont see him to often It's gonna take a while before I can get that disc. I've got stuff I'm wanting to upload but I have no way of doing it.

UGH! Plus my work money is going straight to my housing in FL. So I'm probably gonna have to wait 2 or 3 months to be able to get me a new D-Link router and a scanner.

This sucks some much I'd rather get bit by a rattler and put myself in a body-bag. -_-* (Many snakes where I live, been in a contact with a few lately. My words in this paragraph makes sence. Trust me!)

Life is at a stand still for me. I'm about to head off to college in October.

But life now is just dull.

My art has gone far, and thats great. And its about to go even farther. But its killing my other art of fighting. I'm also a martial artist in 7 styles... (4 of thoses styles where in a dojo, the other 3 are self taught.)

My sparring buddy (Wulf), my big bro joined the marines. So my art, my GED studies, and my work are keeping me from my training. Though I'm tired of Shadow Boxing. I feel like I'm becoming a retired fighter at an early age. *Sigh*

Names. They have meanings. But do any of us follow up to the meaning of our names?

My first name means "Victorious people." But victory is something I fail at achiving many times in life. My middle name means "Protector of man-kind." But I'm no protector, none of the sort. My last is the title given to my family through out slavery. It means hard working and server of people. It was given due to my ancestors long profession while in the ownership of the white man.

Well-maker then, Welmaker now. And in a way I'm still a Welmaker, but not a provider of water holes. But a maker of things that are well. I'm not a victor of many life given events or a great protector of my people, but I do what I can to make my last name reflect on my creative talents. I still have the rest of my life ahead of me and I believe I'll live out my fist 2 names someday.

Hey guys, I'm wanting to make a video interview for void and for my lag on battling and other things.

So I need interview questions. If you all have questions that you'd like me to answer about me, my art, and my deal in void than I need you to post all of your qestions after this post.

I'll only answer 10 questions. All types of questions allowed... Except ones I feel are unnecessary. So begin thinking and begin posting. After I go through the questions I'll start working on the video.

Again I've been left behind.

Just another remnant to the world.

I continue to walk this life alone. The road is long and cold.

But I've gotten use to the way of the world.

My soul has been stained by the ways of people.

And that is why I dislike myself.


I've grown to hate all existance. The weight and cruelty of people has brought me to feel this way.

Now I'm killing myself to escape the world I'm from. All it brings is pain, anger, and sorrow. Life is a struggle to deal with. But I'm not one to give up and place heat to my head or a blade to my skin.

I'm just another rogue trying to get by the past, present, and live my future. So I can finish my life's story in peace leaving parts of me behind after I depart this world.

But right now I'm just another remnant. Something left over, left behind, forgotten. Again. I'll be one of many to make it by myself.

WATCH ME!

I know I have a number of requested art work to do. I'll keep working on getting something started with them soon. And I won't post another thing of art here until I finish them. Just bear with me people.

It was between 10:30 PM and 11:30 PM.

My Pop, lil brother, and I were driving home from a superbowl party. We just dropped off my friend Vicky at her place.

The 3 of us were 6 minutes from the house. A car was heading our direction with there bright lights on. For some dumb reason they dimbed them like once they got passed us.

But right when they did we hit a deer trying to cross the street. The deer was just about to cross, but it only got its head and shoulders across the right shoulder line. We hit the head of a Do.

Sad and shocking experience.

My Atlanta street thugs. This story is about how war in the world has increased through the years, and how Street gangs have started they're wars against each other. Life in the year 2077 is a cold and damp place to live. The world is living in a battle field between soilder, gangs, races, and other planets. Drug lords govern the cities. the Mafia police the town and collect taxs from the poor, and the roughest gangs do what they want. But to one gang, the world can be a happier place. Lawson Stratus "Lawless" is the Leader of the Phoenix gang. And he aims to change anything and everything about the world has gotten to.

Little does Lawson know that another has a dream of his own. Blake Sullivan "Pherenheight". The son of the ATL's richest drug lord and govenor of the state, has a dream of taking over his fathers position and expanding his power over other states. Blake is the leader of his own gang of body guards, and his type of fun is cold blooded murder. In a game of executioner, Lawless interferes to save the life of the Sullivan victim.

In the mess of it all young Sullivan gains an arch-enemy. Future incounters will come and pass and both young men will figure out there purpose in the world. [link]

I've just been chillin & surfing since I have Artist block at the moment, and one of my friends posted a "Relationship Survey" bulletin post. So, like a bored and annoyed jerk.... I repost the same survey and answered the questions to my honest feelings.

Nick note: BOREDUM KILLS!


o01. Are you single or taken?
Singled out from the world

o02. Are you happy with where you are?
Yeah, I doubt my life could get any happier.

o03. When you meet the right person, do you fall fast?
Um, I lost that "Falling" part of me. So my answer... NO!

o04. Have you ever had your heart broken?
Yes, many times.

o05. Do you believe that there are certain circumstances where cheating is ok?
NADA

o06. Would you ever take someone back if they cheated on you?
Nope

o07. Have you ever talked about marriage with another person?
Eee, it comes in conversation every now and again.

o08. Do you want children?
Not, really... But in a way I have to, THE WHIRLWIND name must go on.

o09. How many?
1 or 2, has to be boys.

o10. Would you consider adoption?
Yeah, I love kids just aint ready for my own at the moment.

o11. If somebody liked you right now, what do you think is a cool way for them to tell you?
I guess they'd have to show how much they cared. Just don't worship me.

o12. Do you enjoy playing hard to get?
I dont play silly games, I'm not ownable.

o13. Do you want someone you can't have?
YES... Cassandra Cain! (Those who know me well enough, know who I'm talking about.)

o14. Do you believe love at first sight exists?
Lust at first sight and sight of attraction. (Its common with the whole world. Don't deny it.)

o15. Do you believe in celebrating anniverseries?
Only if I was married to the person.

o16. Do you believe that you can change someone?
I can't change anyone, I know that from experience.

o17. If you could get married anywhere, money's not an object, where would it be?
In Hawaii, or in front of Tokyo Tower, and/or in Brasil.

o18. Do you have feelings for someone right now?
In a way, its a sorta sorta thing. But more on a NO pattern.

o19. Have you ever wished you could have someone that you couldnt?
YEAH... Cassandra Cain... *Glassy eyed tears*.

o20. Have you ever broken a heart?
Maybe... I can be a real jerk sometimes.

o21. Would you ever fight somebody over your significant other?
Depends, if it was a life and death situtation than Yes I would fight. But if it's words, than there is clearly no physical harm and no need in such actions. (But thats what I'd want to do, but It'd probably annoy me to the rout of Obliterating the perosn using such words about someone I care about.)

o22. What would you say about your last girl/boyfriend?
....

o23. Would you Marry any of your Ex's if they asked you?
No exes to have... Like I said a few words above....... I'm unownable. THERE'S NOT A CHICK ON THIS PLANET THAT COULD HANDLE ME!

o24. Worst thing you did to get back at an Ex?
Never have... Anyways nobody is gonna read this bulletin. Its a bunch of BULL. The X-generation is a sad and lonely sector of people that think having someone is cool and whatever. And whatever love like feelings you have for someone is just your mind thinking you do need someone... FIND A HOBBY, or get help (From a Doctor with a PHD), and if you can't get that I strongly suggest you either suck it up or find your daddy's gun.

I haven't talked to my brother Preston in 2 & ½ months now. And it seems my death wish is gonna come true. My brother and I are martial artist/street fighters, and we fight each other as our brotherly training. But its been 2 & ½ months since we trained together. But I've been training still as I haven't heard from him in a while, So...


I get a text message, and it turns out to be Preston.

And the text said: U know what I want u to do, is relax and trust me. I'd be training if I were u. I'll explain later.

....

My thoughts are he's wants a serious show down till one of us doesn't get back up, or he's got a tag team brawl coming.



Either way, I lose!


I study 7 fighting styles now, think I got a chance either way?

Reading: Street Fighter II - Udon Comics
Watching: The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift



Life has hit me with some deep thoughts, and its gotten me to deep thats made me feel defeated. I'm not gonna get to deep into it.

Things change so often and it seems that its never in a good way, in my eyes anyways.

I'm still a training martial artist and I feel great when I'm training with my brother, wish we could train eveyday. But thats something not fit for our scheduls. My art has massively slown down as well, thats something I hate when a snap of creativity just escapes my mind.

Why do I keep falling into this sickening emotion of depression?

(Some of you that read my journal may think I'm stupid to fall into slumps and write about it but I'm human. But I feel stupid!)

Reading: Batgirl - Fists of Fury volume 4
Watching: Street Fighter Alpha Generations

Pain, no its more than pain.

It's a sign of me pushing myself to getting stronger. Training to contain agility, endurence, calculation and the use of my strength.

I fight to survive...
I fight to get stronger...
I fight to gain more skill in my style...

It's rainning on the battle-field, a stand off with simular souls. They indecate respects to one another, as they raise the fight begins. Both rush towards each other, 2 different styles, 2 different hearts but with same dreams and goals.

They make contact, blows are made. A strike to the ribs, head, shoulder, stomach, nose and chest. Punches... Kicks... Speed in both attacks and blood is shed.

Soaked in the tears of the sky, scarred, knuckles and feet are in crimson. Both souls part from their war, standing at a short distance as water runs in their eyes. The fight ends in the famus brother hand lock, a lock of bleeding hands that symbolizes respect, loyalty, honor and eternaly brothers.

Keepers of the fighting spirit!

7 days he created his master peice, but it'll take me 7 months or 7 years to even find the thought of mine.

Gods art is everything and seen everyday. You and me, me and you. Why can't everyone see that everything that is made is apart of his galley. My art is seen only by thoses who know me.

God is a genious when it comes to his profession, just like I want to be. Not of his power but of his heart and love in his arts.

God and I work hard to show our greatness, we both cherish our works. We both like to show off when nobody is paying attention. We get things pumping when the room is full of dry faces.

God and I both have feelings. He laughs when I laugh, he gets bored when I'm bored. God hurts when I hurt. And he gets angry just like myself.

But the main reason why God and I alike? Cause I have God in me!

Alrighty Than, interesting story here.

My I've had to semi-rap a small portion of my chest cause of a brused rib. Yeah it was caused by fighting, with my older brother but not out of anger. We decided to drop the safty gear and just wear our hand raps.

(Handraps: To keep our hands together if we break them during a match.)

And so we slug each other around brutally getting cut brused and popping joints out of place, and it seems I was unluck and caught on of his left hooks in the side of my chest brusing and maybe some what a cracked rib.

But Yall know me I'm a surviver not a dier.

I believe living the life of a loner and home schooler has moleded my feelings for people into something I find comforting. I've lost the care for what happens to people such as the death of a family member or friend something that has happened recently.

Selfish may come to your mind but I know that humanity isn't what it should be today. People play with emotions, hurt hearts and do it out of cruelty or as a game that's an amusing part of life.

I seperate myself from humanity, and live morals of another type. Again seperated from humanity.

Mother says life of love(marrige/family) brings you more years than living as one. Those who like being alone, are not right in the head. I guess I'm one my mother says thats a loonatic for wanting to be alone, being alone is my way of protection from the cruelty of humanity. I dont care what I miss out on with people, no one really cares... About me anyways! ]]> ~Neon2004
