i know i suck cos i havnt posted since like...october...but schools been killing me and as of friday, i a m f r e e

then i'll be posting what i did this semester..hurrah

oh fun fact of the day, dont eat at east side marios cos you get food poisoning...im kidding you wont get it everytime..but seriously...dont eat there, i got super sick from it last monday..i was throwing up for two days...and then your body is completely drained of energy after that...not fun....but the wrost part is the chills...imagine being cold, and there is nothing you can do about it. showers and blankets dont help much. its like a negative fever. but enough about my sickness...lets hear about something different!

so currently im in the art building freezing my but off while a plate for printmaking dries..dont ask. but yes, i think it was genius of the school to stop heating the art building on weekends..cos you know...no one is ever in here working on art and making it colder in here wont affect peoples art at all...jerks.

so with school wrapping up im going to be working lots and making christmas gifts...sorry i wont post those until after christmas...cos people might see them ... but i'll be post everything i can as i can post it... but as far as school art is conserned you'll be mostly seeing what i did in sculpture, printmaking and some of my stuff from drawing class...nothing from drawing class is very exciting...all stuff from life, nothing imaginary or from our head. boo hiss.

but i should get back to that crap, see you all friday.


dave

ps-i highly recommend never trying food poisoning

he was stun...no..peirced in the heart by a stingray

he died quickly as a result of a punctured aorta

this was only the third known fatality in australian history from a stingray attack, and the first since 1945. as of 1996, only seventeen worldwide fatalities had been recorded, and it is believed to be the only fatal attack ever captured on film.


so pretty much he died in a one-in-a-million freak accident.

guess his luck ran out.

This is a tribute to the nice guys. The nice guys that finish last,
that never become more than friends, that endure hours of whining
and bitching about what assholes guys are, while disproving the very
point. This is dedicated to those guys who always provide a shoulder
to lean on but restrain themselves to tentative hugs, those guys who
hold open doors and give reassuring pats on the back and sit
patiently outside the changing room at department stores. This is in
honor of the guys that obligingly reiterate how
cute/beautiful/smart/funny/sexy their female friends are at the
appropriate moment, because they know most girls need that litany of
support. This is in honor of the guys with open minds, with
laid-back attitudes, with honest concern, the ones who wait for
years and years for a chance but never get it. This is in honor of
the guys who respect a girl’s every facet, from her privacy to her
theology to her clothing style.

This is for the guys who escort their drunk, bewildered female
friends back from parties and never take advantage once they’re at
her door, for the guys who accompany girls to bars as buffers
against the rest of the creepy male population, for the guys who
know a girl is fishing for compliments but give them out anyway or
the guys who always play by the rules in a game where the rules
favor cheaters. For the guys who are accredited as boyfriend
material but somehow don’t end up being boyfriends, for all the nice
guys who arent boyfriend material, for all the nice guys who are
overlooked, underestimated, and unappreciated, for all the nice guys
who are manipulated, misled, and unjustly abandoned, this is for
you.

This is for that time she left 40 urgent messages on your cell
phone, and when you called her back, she spent three hours
painstakingly dissecting two sentences her boyfriend said to her
over dinner. And even though you thought her boyfriend was a chump
and a jerk, you assured her that it was all ok and she shouldn’t
worry about it. This is for that time she interrupted the best
killing spree you’d ever orchestrated in GTA3 to rant about a rumor
that romantically linked her and the guy she thinks is the most
repulsive person in the world. And even though you thought it was
immature and you had nothing against the guy, you paused the game
for two hours and helped her concoct a counter-rumor to spread
around the floor. This is also for that time she didn’t have a date,
so after numerous vows that there was nothing “serious” between the
two of you, she dragged you to a party where you knew nobody, the
beer was awful, and she flirted shamelessly with you, justifying
each fit of reckless teasing by announcing to everyone: “oh, but
we’re just friends!” even though your in love with her. And even
though you were invited purely as a symbolic warm body for her ego,
you went anyways. Because you’re nice like that.

The nice guys don’t often get credit where credit is due. And
perhaps more disturbing, the nice guys don’t seem to get laid as
often as they should. And I wish I could logically explain this
trend, but I can’t. From what I have observed on campus and what I
have learned from talking to friends at other schools and in the
workplace, the only conclusion I can form is that many girls are
just illogical, manipulative bitches. Many of them claim they just
want to date a nice guy, but when presented with such a specimen,
they say irrational, confusing things such as “oh, he’s too nice to
date” or “he would be a good boyfriend but he’s not for me” or “he
already puts up with so much from me, I couldn’t possibly ask him
out!” or the MOST FRUSTRATING OF ALL: “no, it would ruin our
friendship.” Yet, they continue to lament the lack of datable men in
the world, and they expect their too-nice-to-date male friends to
sympathize and apologize for the men that are jerks.
Sorry, guys, girls like that are beyond my ability to fathom. I
can’t figure out why the connection breaks down between what they
say (I want a nice guy!) and what they do (I’m going to sleep with
this complete ass now!). But one thing I can do, is say that the
nice-guy-finishes-last phenomenon doesn’t last forever. There are
definitely many girls who grow out of that train of thought and
realize they should be dating the nice guys, not... ]]> ~Pheonix-Down http://Pheonix-Down.deviantart.com/journal/8454080/ http://Pheonix-Down.deviantart.com/journal/8454080/ Wed, 12 Apr 2006 22:57:40 PDT
well, did u know that men psychologically put themselves in difficult situations based on sex, because it is genetiaclally written that we must procrate so we are willing to do anything needed to spread our seed


its not our fault, it really isnt, we dont mean to...well some of us do, but for the most part, its just in our basic instincts.


on behalf of all men [well a few at least] i appologize for our past and future actions becuase thers no stopping us, we're guna screw someone in one way or another.

seemed like fun


15 years ago
i was 3 and a half years old, with little cheeks and little blonde hairs on my head. i was still enjoying moving into a new house into a new neighbourhood and meeting new kids [most of which ended up being mean].i spent most of my time eating what i could and pretending alot. yes i remember being 3.

10 years ago
well by 8 i was moving up in the world. i was going into my first year of home schooling, getting our very first computer, my own room AND i was able to write things in my journal [which at this point was soley sweet pictures telling a story which had very poorly writen words at the bottom] and i could spell the words like 'of' properly instead of 'ov' and words like 'building' didnt look like 'b______g'. it was a good time.

oh and i gave my dad a kitten for fathers day :]

he hates cats.


5 years ago
lets see...guess i was 13, i hated school, kids were mean to me. and by kids i mean the boys. i was freinds with all the girls. ho hum, i went to hawaii [most amazing place] and had a blast. i went into grade 9 in the fall and it was alot better than grade 8, i was able to be myself and not hide in a protective shell.i started listening to this little almost completely unknown christian rock band named after one of teh band members old car, a relient k, and they were the first band i really ever got into at that point of my life.

2.5 years ago
so 2.5 minus 18.5 = 16! so 16....sheesh, i was waiting to get my g1 drivers licence, enjoying a great summer....man i cant even think of anything good hahah. so i guess my sweet sixteen wasnt so sweet. that fall i got my very first job as a dishwasher at boston pizza and ...thats all

1 year ago
17 [and a half] and i was about 6 months into being on DeviantArt, was listening contently to relient k's latest album 'mmhmm' and i was spending alot of my time with my first serious girlfriend. i was now onto my second place out in the work force, wokring at silvercity, my first movie related job. i had jsut finnished the best semester of school i had ever had [all due to having fashion class with my good freind derrick ] and was looking forward to going to montreal in the spring and graduation.

Present:
now im 18 [and a half muwahahahahaha] and im done highschool and i've been spending my days drawing, painting, cleaning my room [and by cleaning i mean throwing everything away] and spending time with my freinds...and working out. lol i jsut tried to move and i back started aching again. well doing all of those not in any particlar order. im on my 3rd wonderful minimum wage job at blockbuster, while holding my job at teh theatre as well. i love movies. the plan as far as school goes is to be goign to the local university for teaching majoring in visual art. and now i get to enjoy hearing rk on the radio. takes my heavey heart and makes it light :]

you might be wondering what is so special about this journal

its simple

its to tell all the people who bash and hate valentines day. thing is they dont get that its not about having a boyfriend or girl friend or anything like that, its about showing the PEOPLE YOU LOVE that you LOVE them. stop hating on it cos its jsut supposed to make people feel good and loved [and make card companies lots of money].

just because you are unhappy doesnt mean you shuold band together with your other unhappy friends and hate on in, get otgeht with them and let them know how muhc you care about them. like they say missery is no fun alone, so stop dragging other people into your unhappy state. tahts all.

happy valentines day

thanks to all who watch me, i love you all in your own way

Greasemonkey! the key to all things! it installs scripts!

[link]

GallerySkip, it gives you a nice little diplay of a few other devaition by the deviant. its nice.

[link]

deviantSkin, honestly guys its great, customize your deviantArt.

really sorry everybody.

Okay, folks. Here's the deal.

By now, you've heard that Scott Jarkoff, aka °jark, is now a FORMER Staff Member.

I'm not privy to the whys, wherefores, and whatever-the-hells are going on behind the scenes here. Don't ask me anything about that. I know probably just as much as you do.

DeviantArt, in my opinion, is becoming less about COMMUNITY and more about CORPORATION.

So what we need to do is bring back THE COMMUNITY.

Here's my suggestion.

On August 7th, DA turns five years old. Five years for a website like this should be a grand affair, one big event.

So don't submit anything on August 7th.

I'm talking a print, a deviation, a scrap...nothing.

Instead, just leave a comment. Visit a user's page and just say hi.

If someone wants to buy a subscription that day, I'm all in favor or it. It'll keep the servers going, and anything that keeps the hamster running is a good thing.

BUT...I think folks shouldn't buy any prints. No print subscriptions. That goes against the COMMUNITY theme for the day.

We want to put the COMMUNITY back into DA.

If you're in favor of this, if you believe in the power this COMMUNITY has, then join me. Post this in your own journal. Spread the word to everyone, with a and a .

We might be touting at windmills like Don Quixote.

But if enough of us do it, we might be able to remind everyone that this is a COMMUNITY first and foremost.

Join me. On August 7th, let's take back DeviantArt.
------

ok but instead of not submitting on the 7th, submit something on the 7th, submit something yellow. its a great idea. im doing it. i suggest you should too.

either way you wish to go...a day of yellow or a day without submitting...I hope you'll remember, first and foremost, to support THE COMMUNITY on that day.

that what this is about, mostly. Supporting the community. ]]> ~Pheonix-Down http://Pheonix-Down.deviantart.com/journal/6046451/ http://Pheonix-Down.deviantart.com/journal/6046451/ Wed, 27 Jul 2005 07:28:41 PDT

yup so im gone for a week to glorious Toronto Ontario, bleh, so smoggy. but it will be fun. gosh sorry guys i havnt been posting much, iv been doing lots of art but tis the whole "im a depressed work-a-holic/clownaholic" thing gettign to me. but i ahd a good day eysterday which was wonderful, and i was at work of all places. jsut started feeling awesome. yup and im still feeling pretty good. gunna clean my room more, then im gunna go for coffee with a friend, then clean my room MORE! then maybe i'll pack. maybe. so im hoping to post at least one more thing before i go, i hope you guys still are around when i get back (dont you dessert me!) and i think im gunna go eat some food, read somemore of this book im reading, then do some "biusness" then start on my room.

ok well, what i want you guys to do for me while im gone is each of you throw something at me that you want to see me do. and i'll do it, it will be like an assignment for me, so the you guys will get to see stuff you want and i'll have motivation to create and post! so im out cos i HAVE to do stuff cos im running out of time. oh hey and no nudes on teh DD today! oh yeah, uh huh! anyways.

oh and if you join up, mension me cos if ya do i get kudos towards a picture done by conemonster of a katamari version of me! yup so see you all later. dont forget to check out my other journal, called, ok so im complaining, ranting about DD's and their selections. gosh im out. maybe go do some art.

great idea right?

well honestly im getting sick of it. mostly they have great stuff but theres always girls being naked or sexy in them, NOTHIGN WRONG WITH NUDES, HONESTLY I RESPECT THEM TOTALY AND IM NOT OFFENDED BY THEM OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT, ITS ART.

but its makes me feel like the only way im gunna get any were on here is by drawing or photographing naked or scantily clad sexy girls. serisouly. look @ any deviant you does sexy girls, after like a month they've got like a bazillion pageviews (ok so maybe like 2k or wahtever) but SERISOULY i wokr hard at my art and so do all you otehr deviants out there, but more often they i'd like all i see is women baring all in the daily deviation box. its great and they show off great works (but so many are just girl lacking clothes and not everybody respects that), but i also think they shoudl get in there and have a box to show off the little guys (& girls). newbies and ppl. i dont know. GUH plus lifes stressing me out. im osrry. i jsut hate seeing people who are great get left int eh dust. and i hate seeing skinny white naked girls flooding the daily deviation box. *huff* makes me sad, and some what makes me jstu want to break down and makes sexy drawings to attract people to my gallery so MAYBE they will look at works that mean something to me and have importance. sorry i jsut feel small and insignificant in this community of fabulous artist of so many breeds, it blows away any confidence i had. if your still reading, or reading at all, i owe you an art wokr or something, cos your someone who cares enough to read what a little spec of dust like me ahs to say. heh, so long amigos

so first i got crushed by a 300 pound guy then my head got smashed on some hard snow. then i got crushed again lol. by teh same guy. this happened a bunch of times actually. so later int eh game i was runnign and i jumped into the air and caught teh ball! such an amazing moment for me cos im not athletic and it was great. then while still in mid-air my buddy's shoulder caught me int eh left ribs as he tacked me. to i go the wind knocked out of my left lung. so it hurt lots and then i got some of my air back then i got an adrenaline rush and kept playing. then more crushing ensued. lol. soooo then about 20 min later i twisted my ankle so i finally decided to stop playing. asfter a while my side was really hurting.

so on monday morning my mum decided to take me to teh hospital to check on ym ribs cos they hurt lots. tunrs out i have broken ribs and psnumonia in that lung. then on teh way home driving down the highway we got into a car accident and got spung around. lol was that ever fun.

so i got home and jstu relaxed. and cos i have psnumonia i have to cough and move around to get out the infection, then with my broken rib im supposed to relax. and with a broken rib it can make my infection worse. jeeze this sucks. PLUS im missing tons of important school stuff, only in my english class though, stupid english. we are getting our independant studies monday.

also im missing thursday and fridya of school cos im going to minniapolis. so i miss a week of school and probly will get a bajillion years of homework. man i'll probly get lots of drawign doen tho. see you a around i suppose.
