So I scrapped this image:




I originally was coloring it for , but seeing as they'll be reforming under another name I can get rid of the tacky literal interpretation. Besides, I've never really been found of the name. Also, when I was originally working on this, it was supposed to be something for all my friends, but seeing as most of them left a long time ago due to certain classleads I think I can finally have fun with this piece. I'm still unsure as to what to put in the background. For now I've just been recoloring the face in painter. Since it's not much progress I don't think I'll post it just yet.

Plus, that background was soooooo bad. Sidewalk chalk meets icecrown. Prepare to cuddle with Arthas while eating cupcakes and sipping some chi tea. He put on his favorite dress for you and Illidan and both of you were not prepared.

I fixed them a bit, most of these were taken from a moving horse carriage so some have a fish eye effect.

My laptop is fading on me so I just have time to post these.  )

So I suppose some of you have notice that I'm trying to update at least once a week. This works for me because I've got a lot of damn time to kill at school. Usually I come to the cyber cafe at UTEP to post something in order to recover from biology class to study for biology class....I get reeeeeally sleepy. Especially since the professor isn't a geneticist and so his interest it genetics isn't as high as it is in bacteria...so it shows.

I've been drawing a lot lately. Since I don't bring my computer to school anymore I've been randomly productive. I even brought my color pencils to color something I meant to finish over two years ago. I'm a great procrastinator! I've been browsing a lot of really good World of warcraft Fanart (lol, nerd) and it's really inspired me. Plus, one guy in our guild has encouraged me to start pumping out pieces (at least it's not babies, the 400 thing...not going to happen, it's a vagina not a clown car). I started working on a troll...and that's colored digitally so I can't really do that at school. Then I drew a pally, based off of Alykii, the guildmaster. I drew out the sketch, but it still needs a lot of work. I also want to color it, but yeah...digitally.../cry

Here it is though:



As you can see the hand and the shield still need a bit more work before I completely start coloring it.

The troll:



I'm still trying to get used to digital coloring, to be honest, I don't like it very much. I love the sketchy-ness and the mistakes in work done normally. I want to try out painter to see if I can emulate that when I can get my computer to school. Since I can't I started coloring the other picture. I have this weird idea that, if I can't draw well, I think it's because one of my unfinished pieces is coming back out of spite and won't let me start anything because it, itself is not finished. I know, crazy, but for some reason it's worked for me so far. I'm really bad about finishing pieces. I also want to do some alt model photography, but the time for it is just not there. Plus, the only thing alternative about me is the fact that I'm not 20 inches around the waist. I feel like I don't really have a niche for the field even though I want to do more with it. Nick also wants to get into it so it's kind of interesting. I just find it a bit odd, before I took the women's study class, I couldn't care less about how I looked, if I was too thin or gaining weight, but after it I find myself looking more and more at these images of the "ideal" body and I can't help, but realize that I'll never look like that. I'm sure I'm not the only one who has thought this either. It makes me sad to an extent. I'm not sure if it comes from the class or if it comes from my ex either. I'm sure it's more my ex. He was very blatant about pointing out that I should look more like an anorexic. Although, it was kind of hard not to be anorexic at the time, with all the food he consumed and all.

Either way, I've been really happy with myself (You gotta make the best of things, right?). We went to the lake this weekend. It was so much fun. If I had thought to host my images last night I would have pictures, but I guess you know...you're screwed. I'll try to post them as soon as I can. I'll make an entry about it if I get the chance.

The whole thing with Suji is clear (finally). He sent me a message, "how are u doing its been ages i really missed u so much u didnt even bother checking up on me , it would be nice if i could hear ur voice or at least see u again." What was this guy thinking when he wrote this? Either way, he deleted me from his accounts and posted a picture of him hugging a girl on them right after he sent this. Once again, I feel sorry for this girl. I just hope he won't be in my next class with me, or I might be switching to physics.

God, spell check is going to go crazy with that message. Also I didn't put those images under a cut because...I'm lazy, and it's on friend's only anyway. Also, you're a whore.... Yes you.... Then who?

I hate making journals that are friend's only, but this is the only way to avoid drama. I've edited all my posts to be friend's only. If you wish for me to add you send me a message or comment on this entry. Yes, I'm still alive. I'm just trying to be more careful.

p.s. I have cookies.

A-kon pictures of us

So here's like, the two pictures we have of our costumes from A-kon 20.




It helps if you dress up as something that everyone knows. Which we didn't. We were dressed as Killy and Cibo from Blame, you should read it if you get the chance.

Dude, check out these bicepts!

So it's been a rather crazy week. I'm really easily amused. Like crazy so. There's this girl in my class who is crazy masculine. I've never seen her father, but I'm one hundred percent sure she has his chin. It took me a few looks to figure out that she was female and usually I'm really good at that. Well, on monday she brought her laptop to school and she booted it up. Turns out, she has a picture of her doing the standard arm flexing body builder pose as her screen saver. It really threw me off. She was also oiled up in a bikini with an amateur photoshopped background. No, I'm not making this up. I kept giggling though out the class period because of it. She's really fucking built though. She could easily break me,  With her fingers. She also came on Wednesday and dropped her wallet. Apparently she has a picture there also. I'm not sure how narcissistic you have to be to take it to that extreme, but wow. I thought I was bad.

Also I'm happy to say that things have cooled down with Suji. In our class we were given the option to take an additional exam if we wanted to raise our grade. He was planning on taking it, but I pointed out that he had an A it it's rather suspicious if he comes since he's finished with the class. Now he's not going. So that's done. Now I don't have to see him anymore. Plus, the phone calls have stopped! Yay! That was really annoying. It really reminded me of Top. Nothing quite appealing as someone calling you twenty-two times in a row when you really don't want to talk to them. Seriously, where do they get this idea that this methodology works? Do some people actually have the patience for this kind of thing? I realize there's has to be a measure of desperation, but I don't think there's even a cultural upbringing or representation in media where this idea works. It's kind of like when using pick up lines. There's some that are good, but for the most part, they're all meant to make a parody of the situation. Although I find it funny how, "Hey, ma" works more than all of them. Although, watching recent shows and talking to a few friends about their clubbing experience, I've seen, "Hey, ma" more than anything else. Which is scary. At least to me. A friend of mine was trying to pick someone up at a bar once and he kept trying to have a decent conversation with her. However, five minutes later some bald cholo looking guy came up and just smacked his lips at her and said, "mommy, lets go." In an instant, his thirty minute conversation was matched by a pet name and a brief introduction and she was ready to bend over in the back seat of Anthony's car. It's kind of sad really.

Nick also lost his car this weekend. Lets all take a moment of silence.



It's also kind of sad. We're going back to how we were when we were first dating because we can't see each other as often due to lack of transportation. He cracked his engine. Following his father's advice of checking the oil once a year. Although, from what I'm hearing, no one really knows how to check their oil. I keep hearing different times all rough guesses. I guess it's another thing we need to focus more on when learning to drive. We're not exactly in the car savy state that we were back then. It seems like now the average kid knows more about computers and games than anything else and those that don't, find someone else who does or they have problems functioning in a professional semi-business environment. I really feel bad for Nick though. If this had happened in a time where most of his funds weren't being dumped into two different vacations, he would have been better off. His parents already booked the cruise though, and it's hard to say no to a free cruise, so it's already in our name. I just wish I could do more for him. I'd love to end a lot of his problems or even make things easier to deal with, but I don't have the money for it.

I've been speaking a lot with Nathanel. He's one of the people I met here and he's a pretty good guy. An asshole, but seriously, is there anything better? His girlfriend is taking an art class here and so he has to give her a ride and hang out for two hours. It's funny though, he does a lot of random shit to mess with people. He plays wow also and so he's known as the guild flirt. He says that he thinks even if he were to try to actually have an affair, no one would take him seriously. I can relate. Ha. It's interesting though. His girlfriend has this lesbian friend who messages her often. One day she decided to hand him the phone and tell him to deal with her. His response was, "Are you sure?" So he starts asking Lorena questions like, "Honey, how would you describe your breasts? Does supple work?" She didn't think to question it. Long story short, now Lorena gets messages from her telling her that she can't stop thinking about her and she can't sleep without talking to her and she really doesn't want to know why. Nathanel just keeps saying that he'll take care of it later. Yesterday we were hanging out on the couches and there was a health fair on campus. After the thing this old couple took off with almost all of the balloons they used. Naturally when someone has to carry that much pressure a good amount escapes. Nathanel decided that he wanted one so he climbed on top of the couch and tried to jump to get it, when he missed he just kind of walked back and said he would wait until they left so that he didn't fall in front of them. I guess the old man thought he was really heart broken so he got the janitor's to get a latter and get all of them down. He handed us a good 8 of them. To which we played with. Endlessly. It was so much fun! I've been playing sims 3 lately and you can give your character traits now. One of them is excitable. I totally have that.
