So I'm Daisy. As in Princess Daisy from Mario. Freind and I are going as Peach and Daisy and our hubbies are Mario and Luigi (we're nerds, we get it). Anywhooo, I made our dresses, so hopefully soon there will be some interesting costumes ariiving in my gallery. Or I will forget to bring a camera. Either or.

Wheee

it's been a while...

I've been married and moved away, and it's almost back around to autumn, which was the last time I posted anything.

Strange, well, I'll see if I can't fabricate something here soon, but I don't have high hopes. Knowing that no one will see it online, and that no one here will care what I do, doesn't make for much morivation to create.

however, endevor to perservere...

we'll see.....

It seems I'm a little stuck in the last holiday (thanksgiving is before halloween here in canada). Hmm, well I'm a little busy, but next week maybe I'll do something. We'll see.

It's funny, because I imagine after January I will have so much free time I'll be sick, but now it's wuite the opposite (but with the same results, what's with that?!?!).

Oh, Sorry Christmas, no fun stuff for you yet....

Exams are almost done though, which does make me happy.

Almost.....

Today it is cold toes.

I've been hanging alone at the house most of today, then to a short 3 hours at work and a single class.

I miss Tony.

However, it's not so bad. I will get over it as soon as I snuggle into my bed.

I cannot wait until halloween, and now it is here!



Ha ha ha ha ha ha h!

...but there's so much to do...

...and I'm really lazy...

...and ever so tired...

...and am getting no sympathy whatsoever. No worries. I brought it all on myself by playing Contact all evening instead of getting my cleaning done. But it's soo much fun!

Birthday Monday, big ol' 22.

Halloween Tuesday, party at work, no classes that night!

Leave to see Tony Thurseday because,

Grad Parade Friday (end of basic training! Yay!).

Next week has a lot going for it, I wonder how it'll shape up...

Maybe talk more then!

So one of my most favorite hollidays, near the end of my favorite season, is quickly approaching!

Yays!

I'm thinking the mad hatter. It's a costume that I've never done, and I don't want to be all girly this year (for a change). Some friends are trying to get me to join their mob of gangsters, but the idea is a bit cliche and the cosumes are expensive, whereas mad hatter is second hand store friendly (at least more so than the classy le chateau mobsters).

Stoaked!

Love and Kisses!

So, again with the discouraged. Pictures upset me, and I never scan any of my drawings because they're on looseleaf and aren't that great, and I'm no good at drawing on the computer. I feel like I have so much creative energy that I want to get out, but the finished product is always dissappointing.

Oh well, I'll keep trying and thinking about it and maybe I'll have some sort of break through artisticly.

Nice.

Mah.

However, in about a month's length of absence I will flood this wild and crazy page (mostly the scraps section) with pictures from the trip I will be taking starting on sunday. Damn, I better get a camera...

Anyhow, I'm going to Belize, and while I don't have much faith in my photographic prowess, the natural and historical beauty of the Mayan ruins in the middle of the jungle that will be excavating for about a month will shine through my poor picture taking skills and I hope to come out with some pretty images to share.

Lots of excitement and nervousness all bundle up into one little university student...details to follow about mid-June-ish. ]]> ~halima-gamba http://halima-gamba.deviantart.com/journal/8453102/ http://halima-gamba.deviantart.com/journal/8453102/ Wed, 12 Apr 2006 20:29:16 PDT
Sick. Tired, and winey, whiney, winy...complaining.

So exams, eh? Crappy! I was feeling good about only having two and them being take home exams, but turns out they're not so easy. That and I have next to no motivation to actually do anything on them. Stupid school. Oh and brother is playing Call of Cthulhu right infront of me, man, that is one screwed up game. It can be like a game, will my jitters from watching that game overcome my sickness and keep me up, or will my germs exhaust my body and overpass my fear of slimy monsters? Tune in next time to find out... ]]> ~halima-gamba http://halima-gamba.deviantart.com/journal/8301868/ http://halima-gamba.deviantart.com/journal/8301868/ Wed, 29 Mar 2006 06:14:37 PST ...

...Sewing. I'm not bad at it; Not great but not bad. I thought up a really simple little pattern and have created a dummy and a doll, both clothed! I don't know what to do with the faces or hair, and since my little backwater town (by which I mean the capital of New Brunswick) doesn't have any hair-type material. Atleast not like what I want, which is long-ish hair. Bah, well I think I will make one with short green hair, which is a new character I have been toying with, and I can just use fake fur as the hair.

Once I have finished my schooling for the winter, I shall take on this new project and then post some pictures of the silly results.

On the topic of silly, although it is not official, Thursday (tomorrow) is Mitch Hedberg day (or so says Wikipedia). I reccomend that all join in and enjoy his funny-ness.

Things will be better in a week and a half - school will be over. ]]> ~halima-gamba http://halima-gamba.deviantart.com/journal/7953720/ http://halima-gamba.deviantart.com/journal/7953720/ Mon, 20 Feb 2006 14:27:39 PST (not whining, just musing)...

I love the art here; personally my favorites are the clear colourful "polished" pieces. I love to draw, but for some unknown reason, I can only really draw on looseleaf, and colour is right out. I've been practicing but it's still clear that even my best pieces are clearly when I draw on looseleaf. I am a horribly self consious person, especially when it comes to my drawings and I don't want to post my best work here because by comparison it's still just silly.

Hmm, here's the part where it sounds like I'm whining, maybe I am a little.

I don't want to post my scketchy works here, but I want to do something with them (and I don't want to bury them in the scraps section).

Anyhow, any thoughts would help but mostly I think I just needed to get my little fear out in the open so that I can get over it.

We'll see what I do...

I've listened to this one A-ha cd since child-hood, and when I moved out of my parents' it got lost. So here I am, a few years later and Scot has procured me a new copy of "east of the sun, west of the moon" by A-ha. Ah, happy again!

I'm tired and the fish looks fishey...um...silly. I like the outline alone better, but it seems like something's missing. Well, if you look at this, it is one that is worth trying the full view, not because of any artistic subtleties (spelling?) that I have somehow hidden, no it's just for the nifty textures. I find they make it look better.

Check out the outline alone in my scraps section and by all means if it moves you give a try at colouring it, I'd love to see how it turns out! Moving on; this was by far the quickest little project I've ever done.

Hmm, sleepy sleepy time...

Well, Again, the full view of this is less than impressive, and the smaller view makes all the stupid little parts go blurry and less visable, so that's what I recomend.

Going to the pub now. ]]> ~halima-gamba http://halima-gamba.deviantart.com/journal/7349860/ http://halima-gamba.deviantart.com/journal/7349860/ Sun, 18 Dec 2005 22:07:31 PST
So as always, after sitting here browsing, I really feel that I can put more into my work (you see very little of it, because very little of it is worth seeing). I'm working on one I did all on the computer, with the tablet (a little nicer than the turtle).

Exciting stuff.

I have some more ideas and some seasonal goodness wanting to emerge, but I will have to take it one at a time and try to come up with something.

Ouch. ]]> ~halima-gamba http://halima-gamba.deviantart.com/journal/7161618/ http://halima-gamba.deviantart.com/journal/7161618/ Sun, 27 Nov 2005 19:19:00 PST
So, I've finally made another submission. I moved out of the apartment with the girl with the scanner (I know, I'm a bum) so I shall have to get my own before I can submit anything else like that.

I made a picture of a baby turtle. I imagine it will be best viewed from a distance (preferable a rather large one that involves many obstacles and possably other people in the line of sight). The full view is just a dissapointment.

Oh well, If it makes Katie (friend who it's for) smile, that's good enough!

I like the shape of his head though... ]]> ~halima-gamba http://halima-gamba.deviantart.com/journal/6108958/ http://halima-gamba.deviantart.com/journal/6108958/ Tue, 02 Aug 2005 04:51:00 PDT

Hmm, could use more chocolate though. I Finished Harry Potter 6 over the weekend, and am a little shocked still, but impressed none the less. I'll refrain from saying anymore because everyone hates a spoiler!

Happy day! ]]> ~halima-gamba http://halima-gamba.deviantart.com/journal/6002072/ http://halima-gamba.deviantart.com/journal/6002072/ Fri, 22 Jul 2005 06:09:45 PDT

First day, posted a pic. I've spilt coffee all over my lap. I'm glad that there isn't much longer untill the weekend and I can pretend that I don't have a job that destroys my soul. Beautiful day for it though...

Katie
