ISMFOF

Mmk. So I started doing something new.
Writing something, anything every day (well, in my case, every night).
It's just to get my juices flowing, so I don't lose touch with my writing.
It's also very helpful, personally. I get to vent.
Ha.

I encourage all of you, whether or not you are writers, to do this.

and are

It takes only.. one hour? to complete a decent drawing using Sam's Tablet PC.
Soooo jealous.

1) I'm happier now. Things have (finally) turned around. The mistake I made ended up working out. I learned from it.. and well, it's been going great.
2) I've made resolutions. One of them being I wouldn't go on the computer as much... that's why I'm not active at all. : ( I'm so sorry about that guys.. especially to you, Tay ! I miss talking to you all. I do have a Facebook tho, maybe we could talk there ?
3) That means I don't really comment on deviations... sorry.. one day I'll weed through them and comment on the entries I really love. : ) Until then, be patient. Your art isn't being ignored !

That's it. I'll tty all soon.
Thanks, everyone.

[ TEN things you want to say to TEN different people. ]

* I love you. I'm so sorry I was such a difficult kid. I don't know what the fuck I was thinking. You are such a selfless person. You gave us so much.. you still do. You taught us to be independent, strong women. I know your life has been a difficult journey, but I am more than grateful for everything you have done. You're amazing. Thank you.


* You.. I'm also so damn sorry I was a selfish, stupid kid. I feel so bad that one summer we came to visit. I was extremely difficult, and I know I hurt your feelings. I promised you a letter last year.. do you remember that? I had it all written out, but I didn't have any stamps to send it to you. I regret that so much. And I regret every single day that I forget to call you, and tell you I love you. You just want the best for us, and although our communication isn't the best, I still appreciate everything you have done. I love you.

* I'm sorry. (Wow. This is just going to be a huge sorryfest.) I know I promised all those times that I would come to Hawaii, and you looked forward to them so much. Since I was born, you have watched over me, and helped me grow. You spoiled me like every grandmother should. I'm just so happy that you were a major part of my life, especially when I was younger. You were so beautiful; you still are. I regret it so damn much that I didn't ever get to say goodbye.. That I never learned Korean like Nany and I were going to. I really hope that you're still watching over me... watching me grow up. I'm going to be something great, just for you. I love you.

* The last time I saw you, I didn't even get to say a proper goodbye. I regret that so much. You told Apa that you didn't think you would see us again. And that killed me. I hate that you think that, and I'm realizing that maybe it's the truth. I feel so bad that I don't call you more often, even if it's just to say I love you. I'm so glad we got to spend the past summer together. I want to get to know you more, but it's just so hard. I hate not being able to speak in the same language. You're such a strong character. An amazing influence. I'm so proud to be your grand daughter. I love you too.

* We have grown up side-by-side. We're great friends, and closer than most siblings are. I'm so glad that every time we go to Hawaii, it's with you. Only we could be so stupid and have that much fun. I feel a little guilty that I don't make time here at home for you, but I hope you realize that I'm glad that you're my sister, and that I love you.

* You and my mom are very close. Sometimes you get into arguments, and before I doubted how good you two were together. But I realized you have just had a very rough time... and you're still having rough times. We all are. But I hope you know that I'm here. That even though we don't spend much time together, I care about you, and I'm soo happy my mom has you. You are so great, and I know how much you love Karim. I'm sorry we don't know each other more...

* You have been a major part of my life for the past two years. I love you so much as a person. You're sweet, caring, accepting, funny, extremely weird and you share my sense of humor. I can be myself, totally and completely around you. If I'm having an off day, you're there to sympathize with me. Sometimes, though, I question if I really do love you. I mean, of course I know I love you. But am I IN love with you? As in romantically? At times I feel like the spark has fizzled out. When I'm with you, I feel happy and in love.. but when I'm not, I question the reasons why I'm with you. It's confusing and extremely stupid, but I can't help it. And this fucking bothers me. I know you love me completely, but can I honestly say the same?

* Argh. You confuse me. Sometimes I dislike you, but I really can't stop myself from being pulled back. You are so sweet... online or in text. In person or on the phone, it's not the same. I try to justify everything you do by looking at things from your point of view. But I can't keep doing that. I don't know what you're really thinking. Because of that, I don't know what to think of you, or of us. I just wish you'd tell me straight up. Ugh.

* You are one of my best friends. You're so cute and funny, all the god damn time. Sometimes, you're overly inappropriate, and I do think you're a bit slutty.. but you're just an insecure, sweet girl who really is a true friend. I get jealous of you often, but I try to suppress it. (You don't know that.) I'm so glad you're my friend, really. Thanks for being understanding and accepting. I love you!

* You are so sweet. And silly. And amazing. You really need to stop looking down on yourself! Everything you do is inc... ]]> ~tori-xx http://tori-xx.deviantart.com/journal/19901207/ http://tori-xx.deviantart.com/journal/19901207/ Mon, 11 Aug 2008 19:12:19 PDT I'm turning 16. I don't tihnk I'm doing anything special though. >.<
I told you I've been out of it.

Sorry, guys, I've been totally out of it lately.
Haven't been on much because I'm in Hawaii visiting my dad.
And I have a feeling this school year will be a bitch, so I probably won't have a lot of stuff to post. : (
I plan on taking a creative writing class though; I hope I like it!

I have a few drawings I'll post soon, (really late) birthday presents to a few friends.

Thank for bringing me back on this damn site. : P
She's amazing!

Names/
(Gender description Name)
1) F black with orange splotch on head Wakka
2) M white Cloud
3) M black Edward
4) F grey (crippled legs. :< ) Tippy

LUL! NAMES FROM FF AND TWILIGHT. AHAHAHAHAHAH.
Pics come later. :3

/END EDIT

OMG!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11
My baby kitty S'more (well I suppose she isn't a baby any longer!) JUST HAD KITTENS!!!!!!!!!!
They are SO adorable! I'll update this journal later with names, genders, etc!

They were born a couple hours earlier.. I have a feeling around 2-3AM.
AND THEY ARE ALL SO CUTE!

White, black, black with orange spot on head, and grey.
The grey one has a bad hind leg though, one of its feet got twisted around in an awkward angle, probably from the birthing process. : ( I WANT TO KEEP IT!!!
(We've yet to determine the genders. Lol!)

Want to know how I found the kittens? (... rhetorical question.)
Well I was about to go to bed (since I was conversing with my friend, Zach, until 6AM. >.> it is now 7AM ), and I climb in all comfy.. then I hear these mews and I thought it was from S'more (I was afraid she was trapped in my closet, that dumby!)
My sister's cat, Smokey, he goes into my closet and kind of looks out, and I open the door to find S'more. I pet her back, and near her butt it was sticky. (Ew.)
THEN I SAW THESE LITTLE BLOBS MOVING AROUND MAKING MEOWING NOISES AND S'MORE WASN'T MOVING HER MOUTH OR ANYTHING AND!! WELL!!!!!!!
They're utterly adorable. I love them all to bits. Too bad I'm leaving for Hawaii. My sister and I will be gone for a month. They'll be all grown up by then!! ;_;
<3

Possible names: Tippy, Meowth, Wakka (for sure) and Lady Yunalesca. (But apparently Lady is.. well.. a male. So now we have to think of a new name. Probably Bo.)

I'll post pictures later.


I don't think I'll be able to fall asleep. -_-
Damn.

The lyrics are pwnful too, not cheesy at all. <3

My boyfriend of like 16 1/2 months broke up with me,

I want to become an author.
I want to publish my own damn books of poetry, short stories and monologues.
And why the hell not? It's something I enjoy.
I think I'm good at it. In fact, I think I'm better at writing than drawing (which I've been doing for years and years and YEARS!!)

Isn't it inevitable?
I've been reading my whole life,
I've fallen in love with books and words,
and now I'm seizing the opportunity to manipulate them and create beautiful sentences that mean something to me.

I honestly hope that writing isn't a fling with me.
I have a bunch of those, I go through many art phases, food phases, etc.
I get sick of things so easily,
but reading has always been a constant.
I hope that writing is the same (a constant, that is.)

Do you think I'm being silly?
Maybe it's time to knock me down a peg or three.
Am I honestly that good at writing?
Because I have to say, you guys are the only ones that have really seen my poems.
And if you're lying to me, you're filling me up with false hope.
And that's what I'm afraid of.
Am I worth listening to?
Or is it only because I'm your friend that you read my blurbs?

Argh. I need reassurance (or the truth, take your pick.)
I'm feeling insecure. : (

a) Tell you why I friended you
b) Associate you with something - fandom, a song, a colour, a photo, et cetera
c) Tell you something I like about you
d) Tell you a memory I have of you
e) Ask something I've always wanted to know about you
f) In return, you must post this in your journal.

It's sad cuz it just went by so quickly! And I can't believe it's summer. The weather here is very spring-like, so that's not very convincing.

Anyway, hopefully I'll start up writing (maybe a little drawing too) soon. I'm a little inspired by my past poems. I think I'll start writing about a different subject though.

I'll try commenting on people's art soon. There's just so much stuff to dig through! I'll comment on the awesome and important.

The daily sketches thing didn't really work out..
But whatever.
I'll be on a semi-hiatus.
I'll try and finish my art trades and stuff,

Wow, my spring break just came and went. It's really depressing.
I hardly got to draw, except for today. I made awesome sketches.: )
I'll upload them in the couse of the next few days as to not flood your inboxes.
I'm trying to sketch at least once every day. This idea and my cool new creatures were mostly inspired by . She's an amazing artist.
I was thinking of starting a hiatus, but the drawings today were just too sweet I can't. Lol.

God I'm so bored!
But I feel so accomplished, I did my homework early today! I usually do it around 8 or 9 or 10 PM, but today I did it around 5-5:50. So I got everything done, PLUS stuff that's due Friday! And it's Wednesday! It's so weird, but completely satisfying!

But I'm happy. : ) Maybe I'll get around to drawing this weekend, let's see if I have time. >.< Maybe Sunday?
The Linkin Park concert was amaaaaazing! Chester is so, SO hot, and I haven't thought that since sixth grade! He took off his shirt during the last couple songs and DAMN. *swoon*
Gym was really fun today, we played dodgeball and my teacher was doing some hilarious commentary, I was laughing soo much! Haha. : )

Woohoo! I've reached 1000+ pageviews! Holy man! That's really unbelievable to me, is my art /that/ attractive? xP Nah, kidding.
My next goal: 2500 pageviews. Catch it and I'll draw something nice for you!
Anyway, just added a new deviation. It's for Shane! Go her for motivating me to draw something. In fact, I think I might draw something else again! And apparently we have a scanner, and it's fairly easy to use, so I think I'll color traditionally for now because digital is a pain in the butt.

TAGG'D
Rules:
1. Post these rules.
2. Each tagged person must post 8 things about their self on their journal.
3. At the end, you have to choose and tag 8 people and post their icons on the same journal.
4. Go to their pages and send a message saying you tagged them.

--

1. I feel like I'm a robot. I can only draw when commanded to (like art trades/requests) and write when I am commanded to (school). It's kind of weird.

2. It's my boyfriend, Sam and I's one year anniversary next Saturday! : D : D Sorry, I'm really happy about that.

3. I'm not really a sympathetic person. Shane and I's super outlooks conclude this. (But this is only if you're a stupid person that's not one of my good friends.)

4. I am absolutely in love with my cat, S'more.

5. Scot and I are gonna be famous! D:

6. There are so many people in my life that mean so much to me, I love my life!

7. I need to exersize, it's so embarassing! I want to be fit!

8. I have so much fun making fun of people, it's terrible, but terribly hilarious.

I choose you!

http://tori-xx.deviantart.com/journal/16292519/ Fri, 25 Jan 2008 10:15:38 PST Now I only waste it dreaming of you.

My Blurb
I don't want to draw anymore, I'm just way too uninspired. I kind of want to start writing, but I don't know what about.
Anyway, sorry to everyone who asked something from me, but everyone just asked for requests so I'm sure it's fine that I'm taking my time on them.
I finished my finals yesterday, they were okay, but I don't really expect high grades. It really stresses me out that I can't check my grades online because the school temporarily shut down the system. :/ I'm just dissapointed I didn't do better.
Anyway, /maybe/ I'll upload some drawings. I just definately do NOT want to digitally color them. I'm not even sure I want a tablet anymore.
(I always go through these phases. *Sigh*)
But I am commenting on everyone's stuff, so I'm not dead. : )

2) Be more confident, kind of like "I don't give a damn what you think!" because I shouldn't give a damn. (And I secretly do.)
3) "Live in the moment." I don't want to hold back anymore, especially if I'd just regret it. I want to make the most out of my life, and I fucking will!
4) Become a better artist. Practice anatomy, shading, lineart, the whole shebang!
5) Get a 4.0 or higher (Easy... but a goal nonetheless. >.> ).
6) Become more eco-friendly. I love the environment, but I should be taking more steps to save it.
I think that's all. : )
What are /your/ resolutions?

---

Apart from new years and all that jazz, I've been getting more pageviews/watchers! Woohoo! (And they're not just my friends. Haha.) I'm really excited. I definately need to improve my art to keep them watching. >.>

Art Status
Requests Maybe. Try and catch me in a good mood. : P
Trades Yup

I'm the laziest, slowest drawing, and sometimes I lack inspiration so it may take a while before I finish my part of the trade/request! Sorry about that.

]]> ~tori-xx http://tori-xx.deviantart.com/journal/16158298/ http://tori-xx.deviantart.com/journal/16158298/ Sat, 29 Dec 2007 20:48:17 PST Alright so anyway, here's a random rant/question that some people already know.
I am mediocre.
I don't mean this to get sympathy or whatever. I just think it's true. And it is. I don't mind really, it's just really a fact.
But seriously, I am mediocre in every way possible. I get good grades and take hard classes, but what the hell? If I go to a great college I'll just sink and become, well, mediocre.
This applies to drawing too. I mean I think I'm good at drawing, but compared to everyone else I'm just average. That's not something that I strive to be. I guess I'm just an attention whore, but whatever.
Anyway, this doesn't bother me. It's just a realisation I've made and wanted to announce.
(Here comes the question...) Does anyone feel the same way? Does anyone get inspired by someone great, but then also get discouraged because you probably couldn't achieve that greatness?
I know you shouldn't compare yourself to anyone else, and it's true. You shouldn't. "Just be the best person you can be." But if the best I can be is just an average person, then what impact am I going to make in my life? I'm not great in any one thing. Where is my forte? What the hell am I supposed to DO with my life. I don't want to be just anyone you could pluck out of a barrel. I want to be a someone. So maybe my friends were right yesterday when they said that I wanted to make an impact on the world, because I do. I don't want to die unnoticed. I want to die knowing that I, indeed, had something to do with the world. (Preferably a good "something".)
There are so many things that could refute this argument such as I'll make a difference in SOMEONE'S world. And that's true, because I will. But I don't know. I have two conflicting feelings that's arguing for both sides.
I swear this is because of my PMS. Damnit.
Anyway I applaud anyone that read this. LOL.

On a lighter note I have more watchers than I've ever had on any of my dA accounts. Wewt! And my pageviews are going up steadily, so I'm pretty happy about that. : )
