It's been two months and I haven't posted anything! I'm still here, I've just been trying to adjust to college. A typical day of mine consists of going to class, walking around (holy #@$=*, there's so much walking involved!), doing work, more work, talk with people, procrastinate, more work, sleep. (On a good day, I go to Urban Outfitters and oogle at all the things I can't buy). Somehow I've got to change one of the "more work" and the "procrastinate" into "draw". It's getting there. I've started on a piece, as a matter of fact!

Living in Philly has taught me a thing or two about myself. Mainly, I think I'm going to try to get a job in Seattle. I absolutely abhor the hot humid weather (and it's not even that hot/humid by other people's standards). I love the rain, but the rain here is rather disgusting, because it gets muggy about 12 hours before the rain, and then 12 hours after it's finished.

I saw Kara no Kyoukai (the third movie) during fall break, thanks to Shadowbucket. To tell the truth, I really like the movies. They're so different from ordinary anime... they're more like Japanese suspense dramas. And the art is breathtaking. Every time I've seen Kara no Kyoukai, I've been inspired to draw.

Well, that's about it. I just wanted to update and state that I am, indeed, still working on art.

ps- There's a terrible mood icon. It had a smiley being burnt alive... it was kind of funny.

I realize for the crap of me I cannot draw fanart. I mean, yeah, okay, Patronus has like over 700 favs, but that was just one of those right mood right moment kind of things. Fanart is so hard! You have to keep true to the character but somehow make your work still unique. So here I am, searching a million pictures of characters I want to fanart because they have to look like themselves............. it's hard getting used to drawing things other than Katherine............... maawwwr. And for the LIFE of me, I can't draw group pictures. EPIC FAIL[ure]. Screw this, I am in a bad mood. (Oh, but how I adore Luck from Baccano! + ten other characters). Perhaps I'll just draw a single portrait for everyone. But when I start going here, the "why bother, it's fanart don'tspendsomuchtimeonit" switch turns on my brain. GAAAH, summer's almost over and I've only drawn ONE picture of Katherine. How is this possible? I had two weeks during winter break and I popped out TWO decent pictures. EPIC FAILURE squared. Also, why is coloring on the laptop so hard? Am I just putting up a mental barrier for myself because the screen is too small? EPIC FAILURE cubed.

Also, I got my first semester schedule. At this point, looks like I'm taking econ, calc, history (strategy, policy and war), and a writing seminar called "Deviance in Drama". At my school, writing seminars are a requirement, but it's really difficult getting into one because there are only so many classes, and there's a million students wanting to get in one. My first FOUR choices were all taken. I absolutely wanted to get into this seminar that focuses on revenge, or this other seminar that explores "the outlaw" in literature. The one I'm in is about... I'm not quite sure... something about the dark side of drama, and how it is essential for the art of storytelling. Maybe. You "write plays about essays and essays about plays"- according to my brochure. Yippee. The most tragic part of it all, however, is that I don't have an art class. I had to remove Drawing I from my schedule to fit in the writing seminar. And they won't let me have 5 classes because it exceeds our maximum credit load. WHO DO THEY THINK THEY ARE??? Well, well, well...

... and I'm starving. I will eat and brood, brood and eat. Yes, emos are welcome to join.

So and I decided we wanted to practice voice acting, which quickly turned into "let's make up crap lolz".

Here's the first one we did. We didn't have a script for the first part, so it was improv, which was hilarious in an awkward way (well, WE think so).
[link] ...and I don't know what "banana harboring" means... I added that for no reason, even though I wasn't even supposed to play Shiro.

Here's the second one. Look, we made our voices more interesting! [link]

Look! My voice is progressively higher compared to the other videos!
