One of the courses I applied to requires a portfolio, so I dragged out my old work to see what is salvageable, and there's what I came up with. Enjoy.

Joel, the vocalist and guitar player, plays with Our Lady Peace for their shows, and has also played with Alanis Morissette for 3 years, just as an hint of how good this guy is. Help him out! Visit his site! Buy his stuff! Or just sit back and enjoy any music samples you can find. Seriously. It's worth it.

Our U18 team won silver, with all our other teams yelling and being obnoxious to cheer them on and intimidate the other team. It's fun being so annoying, especially if it's encouraged ^^

So then we ran around the city, shopping, eating far too much food and wandering Bourbon street. Now that was quite the experience.

Oh yeah, saying "y'all" is infectious *shakes fist at all American's with their crazy southern accents* Save me.

And now I am home, and couldnt be happier. My friends have been wonderful to me, and I couldn't ask any more of my bf ^^ Speaking of whom, you should all go here --> [link]

Ok, actually that was shorter than was expected, so yeah. Thanks all.

Love ya <3 ]]> ~Rukey http://Rukey.deviantart.com/journal/4841078/ http://Rukey.deviantart.com/journal/4841078/ Thu, 17 Mar 2005 20:34:51 PST
However I do now have enough RAM in my computer now (I updated it again) to run PS. But I once again cant use it because my computer wont read the file to download it. Omg I hate computers.

This was so not meant to be.

March Break hasnt been all that interesting for me, just collecting music for my I-pod, and throwing a suprise party for a friend lately. Anyone else doing anything interesting? ]]> ~Rukey http://Rukey.deviantart.com/journal/4811382/ http://Rukey.deviantart.com/journal/4811382/ Mon, 14 Mar 2005 14:14:32 PST
Yeah, who am I kidding. Ur bored already, I know it.

So it is now March break. I have no plans, cause I like to be spontanious. And I don't know how to spell that. Should be a productive week, in all my favourite unproductive ways. Like shopping. And drawing. And such. Uh. . . Yeah.

I WENT SNOW MOBLING YESTERDAY! OMG OMG OMG! So much fun. My friend Heather invited me to go up with her, and we zipped around on this little field for the day. I got to drive too ^^ Except for my first run, I actually did pretty well, not crashing into anything, and getting comfortable enough to push the speed on the straights. Oh it was so much fun. THANKS HEATHER! (If you ever discover I use this site anyways ^^)

I'm very amused by the concept of the small community of hidden anime artists throughout my grade at school. Hi all! *waves* They're all very talented and lovable. I feel so happy to have more people posting on my devart site, its just such a great feeling to know people like ur art ^^

I have no more new video games to play, it's so sad. I've actually pulled out my FFTA game again; it's amazing how it never ends. You can play it over and over, do however many missions you want, and it never gets boring. I love it.
And I'm kinda put off by going thru another 80 hour adventure of ToS. I don't know how you do it Stootle.

I'm dreaming again, and actually remembering it too. Amazing what simple thing can make you really happy isn't it?

Ok, I'm done now. ]]> ~Rukey http://Rukey.deviantart.com/journal/4644310/ http://Rukey.deviantart.com/journal/4644310/ Tue, 22 Feb 2005 09:04:03 PST
Otherwise it was wonderful. I was in an awesome mood, and realized everyone should treat everyday like a birthday. You don't want to mark the day with a mean comment, and you float around in a happy, tolerent mood anyways. Thats how I see it.

And I'm almost at the I-pod. Almost.

As for art I'm getting really frustrated at my lack of attention to anime, so hopefully I'll be finishing something up soon. Cause otherwise I shall explode. I might also be drawing some inspiration from a friends Cowboy Bebop DVDs, so we shall see.

And that was a long and probably boring post, so I apologise to all those who are suffereing permanent twitches because of that. I'll stop now. So yeah, bye all! ]]> ~Rukey http://Rukey.deviantart.com/journal/4617396/ http://Rukey.deviantart.com/journal/4617396/ Fri, 18 Feb 2005 19:50:13 PST
As for art, I'm probably gonna be continuing to submit abstract stuff, as it my prefered thing to draw at school. I refuse to start drawing anime in front of most of THEM. So my anime has been neglected, and I hope to be focusing on that more. So, I shall get to updating mroe interesting stuffsoon, just have patience grasshopper(s). What is that from anyways?

I hope I get an I-Pod. Or at least money to buy one. ]]> ~Rukey http://Rukey.deviantart.com/journal/4505881/ http://Rukey.deviantart.com/journal/4505881/ Sat, 05 Feb 2005 18:12:03 PST

And to everyone else out there in the world (that must have made you feel special, I know) I sincerely wish you all Happy Holidays, full of whatever wishes you can imagine, whether that be fun with ur family, health, a restful break and fun with friends. Oh all right. "Lots of presents" can go in there too, but thats not what really matters is it? Hey, You!

I'm listening to Our Lady Peace right now, and sending people uselessly long emails about what comes to my mind. Kinda like I'm doing right now in fact, but it's fun to ramble and I'm good at it, so HA! ]]> ~Rukey http://Rukey.deviantart.com/journal/3695985/ http://Rukey.deviantart.com/journal/3695985/ Thu, 28 Oct 2004 17:05:45 PDT EEH HEE! Hallow's Eve is almost here! This has to be my favourite time of year, and I can't believe October is almost over. But that means its almost halloween, so I'm not sure if I should be happy or sad.
But I shall be happy, well, just cause I had an awesome weekend (yes, my mood has actully lasted longer than a day, believe it or not) and I'm not letting myself forget it. ^_^
Animeniac, you know why, and if anyone else decides to ask, I shall tell them. However, considering I doubt any one else is going to take me up on that offer, I'm not gonna bother and type it out here.
Ok. As for my art, which I know is actully why ur fighting thru my rambles and reading this, I should have some new stuff in after Hallow's Eve, as soon as I steal Crazy8Bob's scanner. Again. Anyways, thanks for listening to my rambles, and I hope I haven't caused any mad eye-twitches. Love all of you guys! ]]> ~Rukey http://Rukey.deviantart.com/journal/3599038/ http://Rukey.deviantart.com/journal/3599038/ Fri, 15 Oct 2004 19:46:25 PDT So yes, I should hope to draw more stuff this weekend too, but I might be busy.

I feel like I could take on the world right now. I just tried out for my city's vollyball team, and although it was crazily painful including the most sit ups, pushups, squats and what ever other strengthening thing u can think of, I am now really motevated to play. I'm finding it really amusing considering I didn't want to play, and just wanted to stick with basketball, but now I REALLY want to make the team.
