...Not that you'd care. I really should be improving on my works, huh?

Looks like I don't have time to attend the intaglio lab hours because I have class 10:30-11:30 a.m. and 12:30 until 6:30 p.m. Mondays and Wednesdays. I need to attend the lab on Monday and Wednesday, but I have to be in my digital art class during those times (attendance is part of the grade, yay). Now I know why you can't have more than 3 studio classes per semester. Though I really should attend them over the weekends. UUGGGH I BETTER GET INTO THE GRAPHIC DESIGN PROGRAM or I'll suffer from staying in college FOREVER DDDD:


I might try getting a Paypal account at some point.


And I should put up the list of commissions while I'm at it. Also currently collaborating on a comic with .


Hmm...I decided to try participating in contests. Keeping track of them:


Hinargaa Couple Contest - [link] deadline: December 1
Design a Monster - [link] deadline: Not given

Art classes are fun, at least it's not mega study until your eyes pop out, but those supplies are CRAZY expensive.


Still need to read a story that I was supposed to read about 3 months ago. I've been terribly slacking off on everything it's not even funny. I really need to start working on the commissions sometime soon before classes get full blown miserable. What else...drama is such a migraine. YAY INSECURITY PROBLEMS from other people.

Maybe I should join ballet or hiphop dance clubs. Freestyle choreography is something I really love to do.

And I should put up the list of commissions while I'm at it. Also currently collaborating on a comic with .

Amazing artists that shouldn't go unnoticed:


What's up with bases popping up all over the place recently? Who started the trend anyway? Isn't it a little more original to, oh I don't know, make your character from start to finish instead of using someone else's base drawing and adding stuff to it? Are people getting too lazy to create their own stuff or something?

I don't know. I can understand someone in real life who likes to add things to dolls because they can't make them, but a base drawing? I find it quite awkward when I see images of nude, hairless people doing oh I don't know things and allowing others to use them. Come on people, let's be a little more original!

You know I really wish I could work on my artworks a little bit faster. I wish I could cough up works in a matter of HOURS instead of so many days. How do some people create masterpieces in just 3 hours?? I wish I could do something like that! I hate being snail-slow. Things don't get done at all. I wish I could work at lightning speed like some people :C I'd get more art done that way.

HMMM...looks like I still have an overdue request from ages ago and some Gaia commissions I need to work on. And how old are they...several months overdue? I'm so slow D:

I'm gonna work on overdue requests that are years old and get back into the drawing spirit. WOOHOO. Time to stop being so lazy. BUT that'll be after finals. And then I probably won't be able to get a break since I'm taking summer classes. I WANT TO DRAW!!!!!! DDDD:

Also, what's up with the "new" feature of critiques? You have to be subscribed to give and receive critiques? Please. People can just use the regular comment box to give critiques.

Another also: Why do I need to go through 5 pages just to edit a journal entry?? Come on now!

I regret wasting my life away on art and Gaiaonline (those were eating up my time that I should've been studying). Guess I got a little too obsessed with them. I should've been doing more studying for finals and doing homework than vainly spending my time on worthless pixels and searching for freelance work. I really regret it now.

Unfortunately I have to retake whatever classes I didn't get a C in. And I'm scared I won't be able to keep a yearly 2.0 GPA.

I wish my obsession didn't overcome my studies. I just now highly regret it.

In before "AWWWW I'M SORRY JUST TRY HARDER AND YOU'LL MAKE IT".
I just HATE myself now for not studying and doing better than I should've. I don't think I'll be able to pull all A's or B's next semester.

In other news, I'm procrastinating in college it's not even funny. My grades are plummeting downhill. Academic probation, here I come.

I wish I had more time to draw (hopefully that would be so over the Christmas break). I need to get better. No and's, if's, or but's about it. Practice makes perfect, right? I need to stop being lazy and start sketching for a good few minutes everyday. THEN I should see a faster improvement in my works. I should've taken fine arts, but nooooo, it just HAD to be computer engineering, then computer science, huh? I need to start making a portfolio of my works so that maybe if I decide to go for fine arts next semester, I'd have it ready in hand, for my sake. But then again I'm not so sure what I'm supposed to have in one.

Thus my grades are dropping. All because I feel like being all artsy and stuff. Can't sacrifice finals for my urge to CG...

I seriously should've taken fine arts. Yeah, it's competitive and you'll make crap money, but I don't feel like going into computer science anymore. Or maybe I just don't feel motivated anymore.

Seems like going into the professional field in art is just a dream :\


And my slight inactivity here is because I've been at Gaiaonline trying to find commission work (for gold, yeah I'm a loser).

Have a good day.

I also need to stop wishing I was super better and could do near-awesome/perfect realism and actually start practicing it. THEN I will get there.

Maybe I should change my major to fine arts. :\ Ha! I wish, as I suck at deadlines. But still, I'm just juggling around and don't really have any other ideas. Just wish it wasn't too hard to get into the art field.


Devious Spotlight:
MAN this person is super YOUNG and uses Photoshop Elements? Pfft, I hope this makes people quit wasting money on CS or illegally downloading Photoshop. See how you can do the same in Elements?

I hate how my level of skill has been lying dormant, not seeming to be any better due to my extreme laziness. I've been saving pictures of muscles onto my hard drive trying to study them, figure out their placements, etc. Cramming isn't so good, now is it?

I need to do more life drawing, trying to be more serious with my art. Anatomy, perspective, lighting, backgrounds, are my top priorities that I want to achieve.

I might try to get my hands on Photoshop CS (not 2 or 3, just CS because who needs the highest upgrade when you're not gonna use all the functions?) via academic pricing, but I really want to go for Painter 7 or 8 since it's so much cheaper.

The GIMP? Yes, I'm using the GIMP, it's free, yes, but problem is I don't like how grainy my images end up looking. I'd like to go for the painter-ish look. but then again I'm waiting for later releases to see if they'll improve the program, so who knows, I might go insane over the GIMP when that happens). I'm not sure if Photoshop Elements 6 acts all painter-like, considering it's more towards photography, but I can't seem to download the trial since my connection can't seem to complete it.


I need to start doing more life studies/drawing the human figure. I'm dying to improve, but I keep wanting to do it in big chunks, and everyone knows that trying to swallow your food in one bite will cause you to choke, right? My patience is low, so I guess that's why.


On an unrelated note, I deleted an image I worked COUNTLESS HOURS ON that was almost finished. I'm constantly terribly upset over this because I was super happy with how it was turning out. But you know like they say, keep improving on your mistakes and focus on getting better, not getting attached to what you create.

(edit) More awesome artists I found:




Edit2:

Due to personal reasons, I'm stopping on requests. Not gonna deal with them anymore.

I'm gonna stop doing trades and requests -for good- and probably start doing commissions.


--------


Man, I think a snail beat me by 35 miles in terms of getting any drawings finished. I'm soooooooooo slacking off so bad I've been on the same level of suck since last summer. It's so hard to not get discouraged when you see so many artists better than you, yet it helps you strive to work harder, yet you get discouraged once again when you can't make it as good as you want it, but in the long run you'll get there from hard work.

I've just been so lazy as of lately, unable to finish anything I put my pen tablet on. Funny, when's the last time I sketched/drew something on paper?

Well, gotta get out of this terrible state sooner or later.

And I need to be working on art-related stuff as well. Man I haven't been very creative lately. All I've been wanting to do is push my troubles aside and bounce off the walls instead of sitting in front of the computer all day.

Gonna be a pirate with my friends for the party and Halloween too. This is definitely gonna rock!

Harsh critiques are always more than welcome. You know you want to help me improve my artz Anything along the lines of "Wow, your anatomy needs loads of work" or something as evil or worse would be nice. Those over "Wow it's good" anytime.

Two requests still pending.

We will no longer address issues involving personal journals; deviants are free to discuss other deviants in their personal journals (commonly termed “calling out” ). We will continue to address hate speech, etc in personal journals." from the news article [link]

Basically this journal speaks for what happens if the calling out rule isn't enforced: [link]
I don't necessarily agree with the new "able to call out people" rule because this rule gets abused to the MAX, especially when it comes to witch hunts on art thieves and popular artists who get critiques. I agree to the point where you are free to discuss your dislike on a particular person, but people will use the rule to start a riot on art thieves and critics instead of a civil "I don't like this person because...".

Art thieves:
This rule would make popular artists sick their army of fans to the thief with rude remarks of "OMG ART THIEF DIE DIE DIE", "UR a loser", or other comments that cause senseless drama, just because their ego-stroking spotlight has been taken. Or they sick their fans on a "thief" who thinks DA is a photobucket and spam said person to death, just because they didn't know. You could say "Well they shouldn't have stolen art in the first place", but when you're stupid enough to flame the person, it makes you look just as stupid. Yes, this gets the stolen artwork removed much quicker, but only because the admins have to intervene into the immature actions of the fans that flame said thief.

Critics:
Gotta love this one. When someone critiques a popular artist's work and then said artist gets "hurt" that someone OHNOES pointed out a flaw and tried to help them change it instead of giving backpats, he/she writes in his/her journal that "This person said mean things to my Naruto/Sasuke artworks waahh" then the army of fantards go out to attack said critic just for trying to help someone improve. Then the fans go all "You're probably just jealous" or "Don't critique his/her works since you're not as good anyway" or something equally as stupid.


This is my two cents. No more requests/trades. Two requests on hold.

And guess what, it ain't gonna be animuuu!

Here's a really simple, yet awesome website that gives a little bit of info on proportions, the neck, shading, etc. [link]
I did a little bit of reading from this website and it gave me a little more to work on when I'm working on my art. You should give it a shot. Simple yet very straightforward, it should help you do better in yours too, and give you something to think more deeply about (in terms of putting more detail in your art). Okay well not literally, but help you improve a little more.

On an unrelated note, don't be shy to give me harsh critiques. Come on, I won't bite if you pick out all the flaws on my artwork and be mean about it. I like improving at a fast rate.

No requests/trades please. Two requests on hold. One trade pending.

And I'm SO READY FOR GRADUATION!!
And so summer's finally here, and that means I can goof off as much as I want and draw whatever the flack I want. FINALLY.



I REALLY need to improve on my works, so here's a sketchbook journal/dump for you too look at. Harsh critiques, telling me how much I need to work on so and so and what sucks, is greatly appreciated rather than "Wow, it's pretty"! I'm so tired of my stuff looking mediocre, so bash away:

And look at my pitiful pageviews! Yay!

Less than a month left til I graduate high school and avoid all that ugly drama. I just hope there's less drama in college.

Prom's in less than 2 weeks. Ready to go PARTY HARD!!! Without bricks and knives, by the way.

Yeah. It's been that long since I joined this site. Not with this account, but a long dead knocked-out account that I first started, but couldn't log back into because of dayight savings stuff that then told me that I must've changed my password. If you feel like looking at it, it's ~suka-chan. A lot happened here, so I'll note some things:

2003:
- I was first introduced to this site around 2002 back at the Teamartail forums because I wanted to be part of the Teamartail art archives, but was told that this site would let anyone join, so I ended up joining this site.
- I thought my art was "awesome" and stuff, but when I saw how many other people were better than me. And also had my first critique that there were people my age who could do way better than me.
- I made a couple of forum posts, mainly in the Help with Life forum, asking about what high school and college would be like, love, etc. You know, what teenagers ask. I remember making a post asking how people had like 300+ watchers.
- I often wondered how some artists had hundreds of faves, just like an newbie would ask. Also thought I could reach their level of pageviews eventually.
- Commented left and right like crazy. "Cool arts", "like your gallery", etc. to have an ever-growing fanbase.
- Pageviews were the way to go.
- I was DEFINITELY gonna follow the anime bandwagon.

mid/late 2003: made up a couple of my own characters because the "popular artists" had these super-cute "kawaii" chars of colorful hair, clothes, etc. Thus Cameron and Brandy (formerly Tsuyoki and Bunnie) were born (others eventually came along).


2004:
- drew lots of anthro and anime. I wanted to get lots of faves and pageviews. So I continued following the anime bandwagon, drawing to impress the mass fans.

mid 2004: Stopped commenting on userpages with "cute gallery" one-liners.
- Over the summer, drew everything I could to get comments, favs, and watches, usually finishing one image in about a day and a half. Of course appealing to the mass fans was the way to go, and it sure worked since I ended up with an average of 10 faves per image.
- Drew Inuyasha, because hey, Inuyasha = instant popularity. Pageviews were the way to go.
- Was the year where I got the most favs and all that good stuff. And my pageviews skyrocketed from catering to the masses.

2005:
- Drew more anime and probably a lot less anthro. Pageviews were still the way to popularity. Faves eventually went down from here. Tried everything I could to get them back with little catering to the masses, but it was useless. And I can't remember much about this drawing year.

2006:
- Favorites started becoming hard to receive to nonexistent. Well, I eventually stopped caring too much. I can draw decently, so why do they matter much to me? Yeah I wouldn't mind some though (honestly).

mid/late 2006: Anime is getting boring and annoying to draw, so tried attempting cartoon realism after becoming interested a LOT in Ferngully. I lose much interest in anime. Still like it though, just not insanely much.

2007:
- Screw favorites. Conceptart is the way to go! If selling yourself to the fans and only sticking to anime is the way to get all them bazillion favs and pointless one-liner comments, then forget it. Nowadays I hardly get faves from not catering to the masses.


Wow, that sure took a while to write. I found many nice people over the years, made a few enemies, and sure learned a lot from experiences. Came here when I was a really naive 14 year-old, and quite interestingly, I'm still a naive person.

Sadies is in 2 weeks!

Okay so today while walking into 5th hour I noticed we had a sub for the day. Boy was he such a hottie considering the fact he looked young and cute (like the last one). So I ask him "Hey how old are you?" and he's like "Oh I'm 26" and I'm like "O RLY?" and he says "O RLY?" back in a funny mocking tone, and I'm thinking "oooh he's outgoing! And only 8 year age difference yayyayayalol!!!1". So I didn't do much of my work the whole hour considering I was busy talking to my classmates and admiring him. So then I handed my classmates a survey that was due by friday because I wanted to ask him as well (just to strike more conversations with him hint hint) and he was reading the answers (Which do you prefer - Myspace, facebook, or neither?). While I'm all nervous and stuff because I think he's really cute, he tells me Facebook never came out when he was in high school, so he chose Myspace because he had one. My classmates are laughing at me because they figured I liked him and they were "Oooh you're blushing" and "Looks like somebody has a crush!" while he was listening!!!

Then later on when class was about to end I tell my friend who's been talking to me some of the hour to talk to the teacher because he (teacher) keeps acting really weird and I said really loud "and I hope he doesn't hear me!" in a sarcastic "yes I want you to hear me but I'm being sarcastic" tone and he's like "What was that?" and I tell him "Oh nothing, don't worry about it!". But he probably knew I had a "teenybopper" crush on him.

Haha, I feel dumb.

Oh, and that teacher that was subbing both my English and science classes was HOT!! All the other girls think so too *sob* ME FIRST TO STRIKE CONVERSATION W/ HIM!! btw I was the one who asked his age, lalala...He needs to sub for my classes a lot more so I can just stare at him all hour instead of doing work. That'd be great.

Everyone, even the teacher, thought it looked amazing. But to me, I though it was nice-lookin, funny and hilarious as well, but I kinda don't like the compliments I'm getting because let's face it, I'm beginner level at best. The backgrounds were sloppy and horrible because I couldn't spend too much time on it. I'm teaching myself to rip my artwork apart (digital, that is) and improve because it's not at its best and it can be better. And hey, that's the art world. Go on over to Conceptart, look at how amazing the artworks are, but people are still asking for critiques. I'd like critiques. I want to improve more than just on my own which is slow-paced and would take several months for improvement. Stop giving me cute compliments! They don't help!!!

I want to start being serious with my art and MAYBE go for graphic design as a minors. But the bad thing would be spending 3 years in miserable art class. Go figure.

Sooo...shoot I wonder when I'll post something at Conceptart? Ready for gut-ripping critiques to begin!


Gotta work on science project sooner or later. I hate science projects.

1. School's a freakin' bummer. Grades are my #1 priority. I need them to impress the college I'm heading to. Science project and homework are stressing me out. All I wanna do is jump off this world and fly with the wind right now.

2. I'm sorry lati9s, I'm still so slow at requests because my art motivation has not kicked in yet and because schoolwork's been a pain. And because I'm just flat out slow.

3. Shoot, the guy I liked is dating...again. And I was looking forward to asking him to homecoming.

4. Man, I still need to find someone to homecoming. Sad - out of all the 12 dances I've ever gone to, I've only had a date to one dance. And that was military ball. How sad is that?

5. Upcoming dance (homecoming) - I've been practicing my freestyle/hiphop-ish moves with LED lights. And man I wish I had the lights where I didn't have to press hard. The skin on my thumb is getting rougher. I hate rough skin. I was thinking about a glowstick but dancing with photons sounds much more fun when you can make the light flash with the music. Just hope I won't blind anyone after doing so for 2 minutes.

I've been freestylin' (if you wanna call it hiphop freestylin' that is) to songs like Blackeyed Peas, Ciara's Step up (awesome), Danity Kane Show Stoppin (also awesome), Ne-yo Sexy Love (awesome slowsong), and Chris Brown (even better slowsong), Frankie J Obsession (also good slowsong!) and...many more for homecoming. Hey, it's fun getting to the groove of hiphop! At least it's better than freakdancing. And yeah, if I can't find anyone to slowdance with, I could just freestyle to the slowsongs. Now who wants to dance with me to Genie in a Bottle NSYNC style? *big smile*
*people dart 5 feet to the side*

...what? It's not THAT bad.

:iconame-yuki:http://suka.deviantart.com/journal/10030457/ Sun, 10 Sep 2006 16:08:03 PDT Yeah, like I know what I was doing while spinning the stick in a circle not knowing it looked retarded. But all in all, I had fun at the dance...even though I didn't get to dance with the dude I wanted to (and felt somewhat down) b/c he said he doesn't dance yet danced with this other girl (mmhmm sure you don't *rolls eyes*), but hey, spinning a glowstick (and dancing to rap/hiphop/pop) is way more fun when you've got all that space and no one's occupying it because they're dancing 2.5 feet away from you.

But whatever. He is cute, indeed.


Oh yeah, there go my grades seeping down the drain trying to make me fail...especially physics. I should have never chosen that class.

2. Some anime styles are so overrated. Like when people draw in that "unique" style everyone starts going gaga over it and the other art forms that have as much work put into them go unnoticed. People need to broaden their tastes.

3. Originality is so going down the drain at this site. No offense to anyone. Some things are just getting so cliche. I suppose this is why I kinda have less interest in going through anime galleries.

4. People need to give more critiques, maybe be a little harsh in them. Yeah, harsh criticism hurts, but it helps you grow as an artist. Compared to ConceptArt, I hardly see any critiques on artworks except like maybe 1 every week. But then again I hardly Browse DA. I only know of one person who does.

5. You know how some people speak something along the lines of "my fans"? That's a bit of ego. Yeah, ConceptArt stuff again. Comparing that site to DA, I've learned a lot that it's not a good idea to have that "ego boost". Okay, fans are good, but don't use them for your boosting.
Why am I saying all that? Well, for one thing, some people act as if their art is "perfect" as portrayed by their attitude. No, by presenting your attitude in such a fashion, you are making yourself an even worse person. And people who comment on others' artworks by saying "it looks so flawless and perfect!!" need to realize that no one is perfect. From what people at ConceptArt have said, continouously praising a person will probably make their level of skill cease, but by constantly critquing their works, the artist can better himself and use what he as learned to improve in the areas in which he is weak.



Other than that I'm so glad it's the weekend. And boy does it feel really great to push drawing aside. I need rest, but I've got homework, so since I have homework, I can't CG. Being in front of the computer for countless hours is really stressing, but the good thing is back to school dance is this Friday! Yay, and since I'm going, I'm gonna try bellydancing like Shakira, but I don't know how she can turn her hips 180 degrees. I'm just an amateur at bellydancing, as well as dancing in general anyway.

I don't really find myself being interested in anime as much as I used to. It could be I'm going through a point where I think that it's becoming too repetitive and unoriginal for me. I still like it, but just not much. Disney classics may be another one of those fairy tales, but at the storylines are what really move me. I would probably choose a 1990-2000 classic over an OVA anytime, except for the kiddy ones. Actually, I hardly watch anime. I'll watch Naruto from time to time, but I pretty much have little interest in the show.

I'm thinking about slowly moving away from the anime style, and maybe go for like a realistic-cartoon style. Looking at Anastasia music vids, I'm truly amazed at how well they are drawn and it makes it feel like they are real and just out there. But then it's like if I try cartoon realism, it'd seem like anime-realism. I need to work on cartoon realism.

Yeah, I've become an Anastasia/Peter Pan fan. Anime does not suck, I'm just thinking about moving on to something else. I think it's a little overrated. But I still like the Pokemon music vids on youtube. You should check them out sometime.

Go me. I got behind the wheels for the first time in my entire life with absolutely no experience in driving. I nearly ran a yellow light which I thought I could go through but the teacher stepped on the brakes. I'm surprised I haven't ran into a tree yet. But I did get a minor panic attack and had a hard time breathing and such during the drive even though he kept telling me to calm down and relax...but like you care. Just 2 more days to suffer and hope to not run into something *cough*mailbox car tree person lightpost your dog flying meteorite*cough*.

So glad finals are over. Been staying up til 1 (2:30 at one point) making notecards for my finals. Man I normally hate sleep, but I'll be getting a lot this summer...I hope.

I know I failed history finals. Go me, but I can take it next semester since I have one free semester to kill. But if I make at least a 45% I can still keep a D.

Prom was on the 6th, and it was FUN, even though I went alone and was all pity pity since I didn't have anyone to go with. I was really looking forward to asking my friend hoping he'd already broke up with his gf, but I found out he flunked out of school before I could ask him again. Oh well. But I got to dance with a lot of people, especially a really hot guy. Funny thing is I kept laughing so much because he couldn't dance and stuff and he's all laughing saying "I can't dance, okay?", but he's HOT. Had a crush on him for a while since...March? Still think he's hot, but I'm pretty sure he likes someone else...I think. Well, go me, I'm SPO for next year for ROTC (if you don't know what this class is go do a google search), and he's company commander, so when I get to inspect I'll get to stand right next to him...that's really great.

Now I've got all the summer to CG and work on unfinished works that have been collecting dust in my harddrive for several months. I just need to get that sleep before I cringe and go insane.

My eyesight just got a little worse from all that stress from finals and staring at the conputer all day. Man that sucks.

I'm so glad now I can spend all the time drawing and playing SSB as much as I want. I wonder what the SSB Revolution's gonna look like? Nintendo Revolution should be coming out sometime soon.

Okay bye.

Okay, so let's go back a little. First off when you run into a situation similar like this, it is quite normal to react to negativity. So what do you do? You fire up, care about nothing else in the world, and start bashing on a human being. And when the evidence is flat out OBVIOUS and the thief continues to deny their doing, then something should hit you:

They are doing it for the attention, whether it'd be positive or negative!

Why do you think they keep denying when the evidence is so out there? Sometimes it's not out of jealousy because they wish they can draw as good as so and so, it's for attention. One steals art for feeling accepted, ego, or just to see how people would react to it.

We're all human. When you start bashing on someone and say "THIEF THIEF THIEF!!! ADMIT IT!!", that makes you no better off than the person, and further more, it's harassing - you're forcing someone. Come on, by trying to get YOURSELF in trouble just to get one little "art thief" is ridiculous. Find a better hobby. Yes, this sounds rather hypocritical, but find a better hobby if you're gonna spend 6 days scavenging for the original artist just to get a thief banned because he stole 1 picture. No, this isn't the situation, I'm just interjecting this statement because some people will waste their time just to get one pic off. But back on track, harassing an art thief doesn't make you any better than them, instead you're lowering yourself to their level. Come on, we're all humans, I'm pretty sure we've done stuff in the outside world that's a lot worse than in front of a computer and saying "hey, I [thief] made this blah blah".

So before you assume I'm letting thieves get away with stuff, lemme tell you a safer way to do things. You know that little button below the image descriptions that says report deviation as violation? You don't know? Well, let me tell you. It's a button you press if you think someone has stolen art, posted it in the wrong section, or broken the other rules. And guess what? When the admins check it out, then they'll delete the image and give the person a warning (or ban), and you didn't have to go through all that flaming and bashing in order to get things to go your way or get yourself banned. Yeah, wanting to react to negativity is perfectly normal, but come on, use a little common sense if you're gonna point out someone's wrongdoing.

PS name-calling out to the art thief doesn't help either, it just makes the flame war a lot worse.


Okay, I'll be studying history now.

Bye.

PS military ball was okay, I had fun with my classmate. I actually got him to dance after he was like "I DON'T DANCE! I DON'T KNOW HOW TO!! Haha, go me.

I got nausea the next day. At least it wasn't TV screen.

-

So far I have bombed all my unit tests in American History, the teacher said my homework was incomplete and won't give me the points since I had to do it the morning after I felt sick the night before (from eating something), and there goes my English grade. My Am history teacher is very very very hard.

I'm so doomed.


I have homework. So much stress from homework. It's like the teachers don't care about your real life or something. Yeah, just give us bulldozer loads of work and we'll be as happy as a fly. So great.

Can't CG. so lazy. I really need to stay away from the computer. It's making my eyes worse, and most of the time while I'm on it I'm wasting my time looking around DA artworks or viewing other stuff on google that's really not supposed to be worth my time, while my eyes deteriorate (is that how you spell it?).

So new resolution: Only get on computer to CG, do research on internet, or comment. Don't spend countless hours doing unnecessary browsing when you could be producing more artworks than counting on others.


I so hate hate hate hate hate SATs/ACTs/all those stupid tests that make you cringe and wanna smack whoever created them. I never did so well on them.

Even if you hate Pokemon or think it's "kiddie", you should just take a look at these super-awesome music vids I found at Youtube. Both are KasumixSatoshi relationships. Press the "play" button so it'll pause for you and wait for the bar under the black screen to turn gray about 6/7 of the way and you can press play while it's still trying to finish the loading process.

Music playing: Here with Me by Michelle Branch

Now whoever thought that you couldn't use Nickelback and Mischelle Branch musics and make fantastic videos of this couple?

Thanks for bringing back the memories I used to have with Pokemon. And now my love for SatoshixKasumi pairing has bloomed once again.

I miss those days when they kept the original background musics.

If you still think it's "kiddie", then get outta here.

Thank you:

~suka http://suka.deviantart.com/journal/7600477/ http://suka.deviantart.com/journal/7600477/ Mon, 23 Jan 2006 15:43:02 PST FLAT OUT SICKENING.

Oh my gosh some retard spray-painted graffiti at my school. Now that's a first that I've seen at my school. My friend told me and brought me to the area. I was like "whoah??" And then I was wondering "Now why in the world did they write the word NINJA on there anyway? Must've been watching too much Naruto or something, lol. And ran into some profane stuff yadda ya like F--- authority and some other stupid stuff. Me and my friend just thought it was really funny though. And we were surpirsed they didn't get to the ROTC building. The army instructors woulda probably hunted them down, and I'd laugh really hard until I choked if that happened. And one of my classmates was saying "Well I think it had to be someone from the school because at least they spelled 'authority' right"

People just don't have anything better to do nowadays.


I so really need to get away from DA, but it's just so addicting. It's just grabbing me towards the freakin monitor all day and it's eating away my school time while I drool away looking at artworks. That's not good for me. And glueing my eyes on the internet for several years have made my eyes worse over time. My nearsightedness and astigmatism has gotten worse over the years. I need to find a better hobby. I need to tell myself that schoolwork is important and that I need to do better.

You know what really bugs me? There's this annoying guy in 3 of my classes who thinks he freakin knows everything. We got our chemistry quizzes back like Friday. I got a 20/24 and was impressed. He was talking to this girl right beside him discussing it and he's like "what'd you make?" she got the same grade as me, but he made one point better than us and he's like "I'm not happy with what I got I mean that's not a good grade to me." Okay first off your 21/24 is a really good grade compared to our unintelligence of which you think you may say. He even couldn't believe he dropped from honors to enriched chemistry. Man, he thinks he's "I think I know everything".

That's why I bought this keychain that says "Those who think they know EVERYTHING annoy those of us who do!" and stuck it on my purse and said to my classmates "Hey I bought this keychain! I'll just hold it out just to see if he'll get a clue!" He probably hasn't or just ignored it. I dunno. But he annoys most everyone around him.

That's why I can't stand people who are like "I got a 98% in [insert subject here]. I feel so stupid. And those on here who brag about having a 93% in math and go "wow, I have such a bad grade in [insert subject here, particularly math]!!11sympahysympathypitypitycry" Yeah, you suck. You got a 93% in math. You're such a failure. Now you're gonna be working at McDonald's for the rest of your life because you can't make a 94% you pathetic, pitiful worthless, living thing. *cough*brag about it*cough*

I have a 4.12 GPA on a 4.5-4.8 scale. I got a D as a final grade on 1 semester. Man I'll so be in trouble. I hope a 4.2 is all that counts but no, I need perfect grades. Yeah, that means using up my time studying I don't even wanna do. PS I hate studying with a passion. You can't make me like studying.



Sorry if I've been really lazy to do any commenting lately.

I've been on a commenting block for several months now. My messagebox keeps filling up as it goes, but I just don't have the nerve to comment on things because well, when I comment, I like to write like a whole paragraph on why the image is very good and/or write critiques. I'm not the one who goes "Cool!!, Kawaii!! awesomeness!! " or other one-two-three word or 1 sentence kind of commenter (mind you). I usually like to ellaborate on what I say. And probably because I'm just too lazy to comment on 100+ deviations...Hopefully I'll find some time to comment on people's deviations soon.


Upcoming dances:
Valentines dance - not formal
Sadies - not formal
military ball - formal (I got a date!
prom - formal (I don't have a date yet)

I wonder how much military ball's gonna cost this year. I hope it's really cheap.


I so need a break.... ]]> ~suka http://suka.deviantart.com/journal/7256813/ http://suka.deviantart.com/journal/7256813/ Thu, 15 Dec 2005 17:21:38 PST
And my goodness, is still out on the loose? Not on DA though, but other Asian sites. Check out 's journal. It's kinda sad how even after 2 years she's still very desperate for attention by being someone else. Why can't she just be herself for once?


I'm gonna go around and draw gift art for those who have usually been commenting on my stuff several times for the past several weeks/months or so that I've been noticing. So if you're one of the people who do, then chances are you might see something from me. This is one way for me to not go into favoritism by drawing only for those who are on my watchlist or for those who are "at a certain level of artistic ability" as how many people seem to do nowadays. And then I'll be working on a doujin series I started making since last week. I haven't drawn a cover yet, just the first page.


edit: If I have ever drawn an image for you in the past whether it be art trade/gift/etc., then don't expect anything from me. I know that sounds mean but I'd like to get to those whom I haven't drawn for yet.


--------------

A couple of things about me: (if any of this kinda falls below your standards please disregard it since I don't want people arguing with me to change my opinions)

1. I like those music back in the days - NSYNC, Backstreet Boys, Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, etc.
2. I'm proud to be drug-free.
3. I'm not an otaku.
4. I don't ever mention anime at school. I've got a life other than anime.
5. I'm not into Japanese culture like I used to be. I'm more into Western culture.
6. I don't like drawing exaggerated clothing on characters. I draw real-life clothing.
7. My favorite music at the moment is "Don't cha" by Pussycat Dolls.
8. I LOVE to get on the dancefloor and dance dance dance to Gwen Stefani, Christina Aguilera, Ciara, Missy, Nelly, etc.
9. I don't like exaggerated anime faces.
10. I'm naive. If you told me a drity joke, I won't understand it and people around me would laugh and then I'd have to get someone to explain it to me.
11. MTV's "My super Sweet 16" annoys me to no end.
12. If someone goes "Dances are pointless", "Why go to them", etc. then I'd argue back at them.
13. I don't like seeing too much cutesy-wootsy drawings.
14. I procrastinate too often.
15. I don't say random. I hardly say it unless I'm using it in a good sense, but I don't say "random people", "randomness", "random things", "random random", blah blah, since when did this word become a fad?
16. I like wearing high heels.
17. I don't like kimono/samurai outfits.
18. I don't cosplay.
19. Just because I can draw a manga doesn't mean I can create good plots.
20. I don't make Ramen noodles a normal part of my daily meal. Probably 3 or 4 times a month.
21. I don't have a gigantic notebook filled with drawings in my backpack I take to school. Just a few pages from last year with this year.
22. Animes that take place in ancient times I don't like (#17 you might wanna look).
23. My favorite color is blue. I like wearing blue-color clothing.
24. I dress preppy as others say, but I'm not a prep.
25. I like dressing my characters in urban-style clothing.
26. I don't like baggy pants.
27. My grades don't compare so well to AzNs (man, I'm so un-AzN for not having a super-perfect grades like them).
28. I don't like talking "liek this bc it ish shoooo kewlll!!!"
29. I prefer Aeropostale and Rave over Abercrombie anytime, anyday.
30. I like wearing tight clothing.
31. Tube-top and spaghetti-strap shirts all the way!
32. I don't color with Prismacolors or Copics. I don't think it's worth my time to bust my money on expensive art supplies when I can color on the computer anyway. I color better on the computer anyway.
33. I'm VERY picky on anime/manga. Most don't appeal to me anymore, just only 1 or 2 select ones.
34. I'm not a Naruto, FMA, Harry Potter, or any of those popular series that most everyone likes.
35. I was given Pocky and it was good, but it's pretty expensive. How did this food become a fad anyway?

Sounds ironic, doesn't it? ~suka http://suka.deviantart.com/journal/7072905/ http://suka.deviantart.com/journal/7072905/ Thu, 24 Nov 2005 10:46:21 PST Update 11/24/05 Happy Thanksgiving!

Sorry if I just keep updating. But...

Whatever happened to those days where anime didn't consume the lives of people these days? I can remember how innocent people were back then, but now that they've hit their teen/adult years they've been been so exposed to anime that they've all of a sudden started talking and acting like them. "Kawaii!! uberness!! Nyaa!! omg he's sooo hawt! (male character) etc." Umm...not that it's a really bad thing, but probably a bad habit and rather annoying because it's like everywhere I step on this website, literally. Before people got overexposed, they were just normal 9-13 year-olds watching Dawson's Creek, Smallville, non-anime cartoons, whatever else we watched, and then comes along anime and starts feeding us like crazy, and then we start acting like them. Not that I'm saying anime is bad because I watch it, but it's kinda taken over some people. :\







Taking a break now.

#1 main reason: grades. Because ooh, this little girl cannot have a 83% in her classes or otherwise, her parents will tell her it's a BIG FAT AND UGLY grade and that she is so failing that class so terribly that she should so be punished for making a grade similiar to an F but is only 1% away from a B. Oh, even if she makes a 92% she gets nagged on because it's not an A and because it's not a perfect grade of A's in her box of perfectedness, rather a box of..NOT SO A's! You have to study study StuDy sTUdY STudY stUdY sTudy STUdY until your skin falls off or your brain explodes until you can't take it anymore, but you still won't be making the grades you want, but what your parents demand from you.

#2 main reason: Midterms. In history, I have 5 long sheets worth of study guide materials to study. That's like 400+ things I gotta scramble for in 100 pages worth of notes I took in that class (oh it just gets worse). And then I have to do research for this class that's due like after the Thanksgiving break and that's just chunking away my free time over the holidays. AND I have to read one book for English and one book for History which both books are to be read by Dec 13. AND then at school when I told her I wanted to check out a book for History she told me I have an overdue book, but I told her I had already returned it, but on the computer, it said I haven't. Mmkay, I return books when I'm gonna get another one, but no, the stupid computer said I haven't when I KNOW I HANDED the other librarian the other book when I checked out the Great Gadsby one. She told me to look for it at home. I checked, no book. I KNOW I returned it and I don't feel like busting $13 for a book I have already returned.

#3 main reason: I tried talking my counselor into dropping me out of enriched History, but he told me I don't have an F in that class, but I told him that I was struggling, and he insisted that I stay where I am because I learn a lot in that class...oh not when I can't remember. So he told me since I'm not failing (yet I'm about to when I do history midterm) I had to get a parent teacher conference. Then he told me after my next test (this was 2 weeks ago) if I wasn't doing too well, then I could go ahead and get a conference with him. I knew I was gonna fail the test. But no, silly girl, you're gonna bring your grade up with the book test because you read the book like you were asked to right? Yea. Did the book test help me any? No, I made a 59% on it when I thought I was gonna do so well on it. It's kinda pointless being in history class now and I think it's a little too late to drop out of it.

When will I be able to make the grades I want and not for parents?

I'll be taking a break. Probably won't be drawing until lik... ]]> ~suka http://suka.deviantart.com/journal/2165914/ http://suka.deviantart.com/journal/2165914/ Tue, 06 Apr 2004 16:10:24 PDT Sukashi
