seeing how DA has recently been kind enough to allow everyone to have a journal skin, I just thought I'd take advantage of what was offered. Yep, that's it. I'll post an actual entry later

and

in addition to a few others.

Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, ÂCommon Sense,Â who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape. He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as:

- knowing when to come in out of the rain;

- the early bird gets the worm;

- life isnÂt always fair; and

- maybe it was my fault.

Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (donÂt spend more than you can earn) and reliable strategies (adults, not children, are in charge).

His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well-intentioned but overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a 6-year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch; and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition.

Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job that they themselves had failed to do in disciplining their unruly children.

It declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent to administer sun lotion or an aspirin to a student, but could not inform parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion.

Common Sense lost the will to live as the churches became businesses and criminals received better treatment than their victims.

Common Sense took a beating when you couldnÂt defend yourself from a burglar in your own home and the burglar could sue you for assault.

Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a woman failed to realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in her lap and was promptly awarded a huge settlement.

Common Sense was preceded in death, by his parents, ÂTruthÂ and ÂTrust,Â by his wife, ÂDiscretion,Â by his daughter, ÂResponsibility,Â and by his son, ÂReason.Â

He is survived by his 4 stepbrothers Â ÂI Know My Rights,Â ÂI Want It Now,Â ÂSomeone Else Is To Blame,Â and ÂIÂm A Victim.Â

Not many attended his funeral, because so few realized he was gone. If you still remember him, pass this on. If not, join the majority and do nothing.

Hey, look! I posted something! A contest entry for

's contest! go check it out! Just to be clear, it's her lineart, not mine, and was permitted to use it for the contest. Anyway, I actually had a lot of fun coloring it in photoshop and am overall pretty satisfied with it.

Also, my birthday is coming up soon, which means I'll probably be busy for the next few days...But hey! I get a (MUCH NEEDED) 3-day weekend during which I hope to post a deviation or two! yay! I am also going to try get the adoptables going soon...the details still need to be worked out and stuff, but keep your eyes peeled! For now it'll be adoptables only, as I am still debating about letting ppl make their own.

As for the art meme i was tagged in, i think i need to hold off on it for a while...I've never actually done one before, and I honestly don't think I am mentally ready for it... --'

That's all for now!

tagged me in an art meme! not to mention did a lovely drawing of Au! (who is a member of the magdor species which belongs to

) which reminds me...I know, I know. I didn't post the ref yet...

Sorry, I don't mean to disappoint anyone but school is beginning to consume me once again, and on top of college stuff, I am very busy these days... I have done the lineart, and just need to do some clean-up on Photoshop. The actual ref-sheet will probably take longer, but I am aiming to be done with it by the end of September! Hopefully before my birthday at the end of the month...-_- I also have been working on a machine messiah < (C) to

As stated in previous journals, there seems to be a lot of people making adoptables these days...and in my efforts to try to be more active on DA, I think I am going to try to make some as well! While I was doodling this weekend (watching Stardust) I started drawing a new creature, it was rather spontaneous, but I really, really like it! I will try to post the sketch asap and maybe, if I am lucky, people will want to adopt!

I have mostly been working on creating adoptable's of some of my favorite artist's species, mostly Au, a "magdor" (copyright to =Aiyume) and I am still working on getting a full-body ref sheet. I would have like to have atleast scanned it by now, but thanks to all my stupid HW I had no time yesterday. T.T
Hopefully I will have it up (at least a WIP anyway.) by the weekend; and eventually will start working on other adoptable species.

Not to rant or anything, but for some reason, I'm really sad today *sigh*

Hooray! =Aiyume drew Au for me! ^^ am very happy now!

Surprisingly, the first day of school wasn't all that bad. Other than the fact that I now have the mean physics teacher instead of the awesome one due to some BS guidance crap but my art and english class made up for it! whoot! I am going to try to get a full bodied sheet of Au up soon, although I seem to be very lazy about coloring things these days...but I am going to try to do my best to atleast make an effort to put some drawings up! huzzah!

Now, I would like to thank all the cool people out there making adoptables like Aiyume for getting me motivated to put deviations up again! <3 thank you! Hopefully you will be seeing more of me/them soon!

Hey, maybe someday, I'll have adoptables of my own! (don't hold your breath though...I'm not at that stage yet!!!)

I have also been fortunate enough to be graced with a full-year study hall, and while DA is probably blocked on our comps (they block like everything...even things that don't even make sense to block @_@)They do have Photoshop CS4 or whatever the latest one is, and I providing I do not have too much to do (fingers crossed they let me off fairly easy this year... @_@) I will certainly try to make good use of it! I also hope to maybe post some of my school stuff too!

anyways, that's all for now! yaaaaay good mood!

As of Friday I will be at the beach for an entire week! <3 yaaaay! Even after seeing all the exciting places I have visited over the past 3 summers, I have always loved the week long vacation i get to take before the inevitable return to "jail" as my grandpa calls it (X-D nobody has a sense of humor like he does!) and only have the occasional "parole" to look forward to...heh, metaphors n' shiz. lulz. ANYHOO I have been doing a decent amount of drawing lately, but have recently begun to be SWAMPED with all the -fun- stuff that comes along with being a senior...whoop-dee-doo. @_@ yeah not really.

Looks like this is my first entry after coming back from Europe! Unfortunately however, compared the past two excursions I have been on with the People to People Organization, this one was regrettably, the worst. And it wasn't that the places were not enjoyable, it was the fact that most (not everyone, there were some cool people) of the kids this year were just down right awful. There's just no way around the fact that I was not able to enjoy it as much as I would have hoped to because of all the B.S. that was going on what with all the cliques, gossip, and unnecessary rule breaking. I don't want to bore you to death with my bitchy-ranty recollections of all the crap that happened, nor do I want to try and remember all the shit that happened. Sorry to be a bit of a downer, but I have been putting off writing this for quite some time, as much of the accumulated rage from all of this is still very volatile, if you get what I mean. Anyway, that was one trip I was glad to be done with.

- it is 5 years in the making
- it has a lot to do with dragons
- it has to do with the elements as in fire, water etc...

well that's it for the rant today, ppl and just think that wasn't even half of what I would have said if I posted it during the first week. So now that I've probably made you feel like a steaming pile of crap, here's a small bit of good news. In my digital photography class, we are required to post pictures online. And while I have already made a site on free webs to show them, I'm sure I can find a way to post them up here.

0o0o0o...and also, I almost forgot, my first batch of draggies grew up! I was so happy when they did after the tough time I had figuring it all out.
So without further ado,here they are in all their glory:
[link]
I'm currently having some trouble on figuring out how to post their pix on da so if anyone has any advice, I'd really appreciate it.
and in case you were wondering, yes I did draw them (only the the red, blue, stone, and orange one at the moment) and maybe because I owe it to them I will make myself draw them a worthy portrait to post up here on da. If I do, I will probably work on individuals first; from oldest to newest dragon and then perhaps try to squeeze 4 of them (that's the max # of eggs/hatchlings you can have at one time so that's why I get them in "sets of 4" if you will)on a page. But for now, please feel free to gawk and drool over my mighty dragons. Though I don't recommend you drool on them; They are dragons after all you know, they do bite/scratch/hiss/growl/roar and stuff. |-P

Normally I would not have cared had I not paid for it. All that money and we didn't do CRAP. I dropped out on Wednesday following the worst trip to NYC I've ever had. Rather not get into that either, lets just leave it at "Wow, that was a shitty day/waste of my life." >_<
Anyhow, there's been alot of crap going on in my life since I got back and I apologize as it has been keeping me from my art. However, despite my laziness I can assure you that I have been working.
Lastly, I will be going down the shore from Sunday to Wednesday so I will not be able to get on until I get back. As glad as I am to be back (and sad because of how much I miss all the awesome people I met) I'm glad to be going (Though I completely forgot about it until two days ago..) and am looking forward to my little break after a another big-ass break. Yeeeeah, lets just say I need it. Hopefully I will come back having found some wicked-ass inspiration and found some way to kick my lazy butt back in gear. Let me tell ya, folks, this is not my first time traveling abroad for more than 2 weeks and I am more than aware of how long it takes me to get back in gear. One thing for sure, 2 hours to the beach is NOTHING compared to a grand-freakin' total of over 24 HOURS of flying to the southern hemisphere.

***One last thing!
ART-CRAP
dunno if I mentioned this yet, But looking back at my most recent posts (which surprisingly, they are not really all that recent... --

I realized I really screwed up Typherion's pic and am utterly furious with myself for not noticing the numerous flaws in it. The point is I am planning on FIXING it asap. When I get around to posting it however, that is another story. --; sorry guys, you know how I am...

Okay okay, for real now, one last last laaaaast thing. I had many friends from my p2p group ask me for dragons. Although I (of course)did not get a chance to finish them all, I am going to make it up to them by not only sketching and lining their dragons but also getting the amazing privilege of getting them posted here on my deviant art!

UPDATE: Alas, Typherion has finally been scanned! Wh00t! but despite my scanner ACTUALLY WORKING and it ACTUALLY coming out good (or atleast better than usual-good...which isn't exactly saying much but, um... yea nevermind -_-' ) I still have to clean up all the smudges and crap X-P gawd, who knows how long that will take? And don't even get me started on coloring him (that you may have to wait until I come back for, but I will atleast upload the lineart when it is done)But I promise you will not be disappointed! promise!

By the way, in other news, now that I have finally finished drawing Typherion (homg, yes! finally!) I have started to work on two other dragons I have been meaning to get working on, but have not. Their names and Aeonis and Taleos. They are mates with wicked tempers n stuff. They're pretty sweet though (not personality-wise mind you.) I'm in a strangely creative mood these days; and not just any "ooh, I feel artsy-fartsy today!" mood, It's like an EPIC one; perhaps the most epic to date. So I am doing all I can to get as much out of it as possible before I inevitably and eventually (and hopefully not any time soon) fall into a slump. I am now officially addicted to KillSwitch Engage, and you can thank them and their amazing-ness to make awesome music (something I epically fail at ;_; ) for giving me the inspiration to get off my lazy ass and work!

I was so busy these past few weeks. I had an art show that I submitted 20 pieces of my work(including the dragon who I was all upset about in the last entry) to and I was doing a plaster carving demo throught the show. OMG it was so akward. There were a ton of people from the Board of Education there who kept grilling me while I was working (I would like to post it when I am done along with the full story) and its not like having someone hover over you like "wow, omg that is sooooo coool!" its more like *Super intense evil stare to make you lose your mind* o_0 the worst part was they kept coming back in every 15 min or so to see my "progress". Listen people, it takes a hell of a lot longer than 3 hours to carve plaster. Over all, we had a pretty good show. So hopefully it wasn't our last. You see, unfortunately, our school's art budget has been cut over 40% and the art show this year could very well be our last. So if it is, at least we went out with a bang.

I also was inducted into my school's National Art Honor Society. I was really nervous because I had to be the first one inducted and lead everybody else onto the stage. Along with me and my best friend, there were 13 new members in all. Too bad we are losing more than half the group since there was so many seniors. But it feels really prestigious seeing how most sophomores can't get in and the fact that there were like 50 kids who "applied". I'm pretty pshyced about it though.

In other news, I am now addicted to Okami for the wii, but never have time to play it! arggh! I also hate that damn Issun guy. He's such a rip off of Navi from Zelda. I almost want to do a picture of Navi and Link(as a wolfie) meet Amaterasu and Issun. Too bad I really don't think I can draw them... It would be funny though, so I'll see. I also am obsessed with Super Smash Bros Brawl. Which I really dont have time to play either. *angst* -_-

There is about 2 or 3 (incredibly long) weeks of school left. So until then I will be banging my head on a desk till my brains fall out. k thx bai.

Today had to be one of the worst days of my life. Seriously. And for once, its not because of all the shit going on at home, it's actually about my art. About 3 months ago, my 3-D teacher assigned a project to create a vessel of a mythical creature. Naturally, as my name suggests I made a dragon. And for those three months, I slaved over it, worked my ass off on it and gave up countless lunch periods and sacrificed a hell of a lot of free time trying to make it look amazing. Just yesterday, I finally got to see my completed piece for the first time since I put it in the kiln to glaze over the weekend last Friday. Little did I know that would be the last time I would see it like that. Since the dragon turned out so awesome, my teacher really wanted to enter it in an upcoming, very prestigious art competition. I was so excited I was even qualified to make it, and my teacher had assured me that my piece was good enough to place. But its not enough to just enter an art show, you actually have to bring it there, all in one piece. Too bad for me, my dragon had other plans. The body of my dragon is a fairly simple form, however the wings that I had made countless attempts at and had spent at least a month on were not. As I tried to stuff my dragon in a box not nearly big enough for his over sized wings, the left wing completely broke off. After all the hard work that I put into attaching them, making sure that it wouldn't get damaged in the kiln, all down the toilet. My teacher and a nice 3-D II (that is how we differentiate what level one is at. I am a 3-D I, though technically the way our system works, I am actually in an honors class.) tried to help me re-attach it but alas, nothing could get it to stay at such a weird angle and the epoxy (which was supposed to be pretty damned strong) wouldn't dry. While trying to find something to prop up my dragon, my teacher told me that there was no way I was going to be able to submit my dragon in time for the show. (fyi, all the stuff for our show had to be ready to leave at the end of the day and my 3-D class is the middle of the day for me.) I was really really disappointed that I couldn't submit it to the competition, especially since my teacher had made me all excited about it. Gradually all the other art teachers came into the room to see what was going on. At that point I just felt so horrible and disappointed I just wanted to break down and cry. I couldn't even bring myself to eat. I don't know why I had gotten so upset over this whole thing but I only felt worse when I though of how mad I was at myself for getting all worked up over this whole ordeal, that I shredded my entrance form for the show. It really didn't help having to suffer though a whole other art class (the way my schedule goes is 3-D, Lunch which I eat art room and 2-D right after) and two of my toughest subjects either. For the next three weeks or so, it's going to be nothing but shows, shows, shows, for the art department. For some reason it really really hurt to have to be around so many other people who actually had something for the competition. I had really been hoping something from my other art class would be worthy (everything else from my 3-D was pure crap because the teacher was on maternity leave the first half of the year and our fill-in was a bunch of garbage. not to mention her projects totally sucked.) of going, but just my luck, nothing I did had a chance and even though my teacher said I at least ought to try and bring something, the one thing I did have wasn't even that good. So in the end after my little fiasco with the dragon, I didn't submit anything to the show.

The best part is it doesn't end there. It just kept getting worse.
At the end of the day, the first thing I wanted to do was to see if the epoxy had fixed my dragon's wing. Even if it had worked there was no way it was going to the show now. When I walked into the art room to check on it, I found my broken wing to have gotten ten times worse. the crate we used to try and protect the dragon had fallen down and crushed both his wings. Somehow the dragon itslef was alright, though one of his spikes broke off. While trying to pick up the broken pieces, I sliced my hand open on a fragment of his wings and got blood on his tail. I hadn't realized it until I ran to get my teacher. As I looked at my wound, I noticed the cut looked more as it the dragon's fangs had bitten into me.

At least I took a picture of it before it got destroyed. I would post it up here, but something about the whole incident makes me upset, and I just don't feel I can bring myself to put the pictures up here. However I can guarantee that I will eventually be posting a drawing up here that will have to do with the whole mess. Heck, I even had a back story for the dragon and everything. But now that this h... ]]> ~neodragonqueen Wowz http://neodragonqueen.deviantart.com/journal/17898032/ http://neodragonqueen.deviantart.com/journal/17898032/ Thu, 17 Apr 2008 15:03:59 PDT
