Mankind has struggled endlessly through thousands of years, constantly recording their stories and beliefs in many different forms.
The creation of words was created to express self-meaning and to explain to others emotions and thoughts. That is what we see, what we hear. It is what we feel.
And in this evolved form of expression, over hundreds of years, it has shaped its beautiful self into what we speak today.
It is a joyous thing when people--especially those who fall within the years of the ever changing spirit--feel a need to express themselves through the words mankind has used so much.
And in these words and stories and poems and expressions, there lives a single fear.
A fear so great, so drastically frightening, ones who write by hand and by eye fear the very word of it. There is nothing that can stop this event; it is inevitable to those who write. As much of a curse as it is a blessing, please, bow your head in respect for the one thing that will drive people mad to no end. Dare I say it, but I will. I must, because it is the thing that dare move in front of me while I continue to express views into blood-earned pages.
For those faint of heart, please, turn away from the computer screen now.
It is...
WRITER'S BLOCK.
If anyone shares my pain at this moment, have a moment of silence for this atrocious event.
That being said, I would like to say hello to everyone!
Welcome once again to another one of my stupid little rant things that no one really ever checks!
*crickets*
...Yeah. Anyway, I'm going to rant here because I created this complicated (sheesh, this stuff increased in difficulty at least tenfold) page for that reason alone. If you check this page for that reason to hear me rant, I wish the best of sanity towards you.
*ahem*
I. Am. DONE.
HECKALUJAH!
One story down...three to go.
>.>
I'm never going to finish like this...*dies*
I suppose I'll put up the link for the book when it's completely published up here. >.< If anyone actually would want to buy it.
I dunno. No, I must not get myself down!
My latest dilemma is not being able to draw one of my characters, Operator. Yes, like the phone operator. It's a big bird-like thing that's...yeah. It feeds off dead people's fear. O.o
Somehow I can't draw it to save my life. Dx
If anyone could at least attempt to draw it, I'd be like, indebted forever to them.
Operator's description:
The creature was tall with a long neck like a giraffe, opening up to a fan of feathers around the top of Operator’s neck. On its back were thousands of feathers all in every color I had ever seen in my entire life.
Operator’s face was small and narrow like a cat’s and very high up, smiling down at me with a soft expression. Its eyes were the color of nothingness and its eyelids were see-through.
I guess I'm putting this out as a contest then.
I can draw a picture for the winner with a stupid little camera, that's about it. ^^"
Sorry for bothering you all with my stupid little thoughts~
Have an awesome day,
Choco
Come As You Are, Because We Don't Judge
So, let's have a talk, shall we?
Remember that one song, way back in your younger years?
Yes, that one.
For this little 'rant', that one song (or more) will be sticky noted as The Nostalgic Song.
For those who have burned their dictionaries long ago (and laughed in the midst of their soon to be bonfire) nostalgia means the feeling of longingness, a.k.a. that knot in your chest when you feel homesickness of a sort.
The Nostalgia Song could be the time you danced in your room as your dog stared at you like you were crazy, or driving down the road staring at the clouds on a beautiful sunny day. Or maybe it was on a family trip, sitting in the backseat with a half asleep sibling, a cold coke in hand as you sang off-key, very, very loudly. Or the song on a warm summer night, sitting at a picnic table with friends while eating hamburgers. Or the boyfriend/girlfriend way back, their song, the one that makes your heart choke for a moment. Or how about that song when you first heard it, you couldn't help the row of goosebumps that rose on your arms.
Or the song waaaay back when, the one your parents always listened to. Just a song that makes you giddy inside when you hear it after a long time.
Some people can list a lot of The Nostalgic Songs off just like that--while others can't remember any of them until they hear them again.
It's a great feeling, isn't it?
Emotions are like...it's difficult to explain, as we all know. They're beautiful factors in life that keep us all crazy and sane at the same time. They keep us in line, make us do crazy stuff, but in the end, they're what really connects us all.
If you can't think of your Nostalgic Song, pick up your iPod and go find the song you've listened to more than any other one. THAT one.
I just wanted to take the time to remind you all of this one beautiful little song.
While others (mainly people that you're not close friends with, maybe not at all) have their music, you know you have your own style. It's a comfort zone, specially designed and comfy as heck. Everything outside it is foreign, cold, and forbidding. Taboo, almost. Smiling uneasily as a friend is dancing to some absurd song; that's what I mean.
Comfort zones sure are nice, aren't they? But they're just that--comfort zones. They aren't meant to be lived in forever. They're meant to be your safety net, if you will, the thing you fall back on when your music ears want to be ripped off from 'trying something new'. Scary terms, right?
I've seen a lot of posts where they usually end in a challenge and you just mumble 'oh gracious' in the back of your mind. But this isn't a visual challenge (well, kinda. Sorta. Stop throwing me off my mind choo-choo!) I want you to sit back for a moment and think of the last time you heard your Nostalgic Song. And if you want, share it with others. Heck, like me, I suppose.
Maybe it's a family joke song and you don't want to ruin it by tainting it with sharing it. That's okay too! Wow, I'm just in a good mood, aren't I? Hmm, maybe it's from hearing my Nostalgic Song today.
Days Go By by Keith Urban, does anyone remember that song? The one where it makes you want to start dancing or if you're in the car, stick your hand out the window and close your eyes.
Those are the little moments in life that we all need to remember. Let's forget the dark crap, the tears, the sadness. The overwhelming pain.
All we need is a little life Nostalgia.
Let's go over, once more, the morals drilled into your head. Treat others the way you want to be. Love, live, laugh. Don't put gum in other people's hair. Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened. (That's a tough one).
You're all wonderful people with beautiful, creative minds. Everyone of you can do something amazing and you know it.
Relish in every moment because it's a gift.
Love the world because something out there loves you back.
(Haha, you thought I meant 'someone', didn't you? The air loves you too~)
Smile because it's the simplest pleasure you have.
And most importantly: don't waste time. You're here for a purpose. I'm here for a purpose. We're all in this together, wouldn't you agree? Let's make the best out of our time here on this big ol' globe.
Let's bring everyone together, one Nostalgic Song at a time.
Because even though it's a super cliche, we really CAN make a difference. The world is a great place sometimes, you know? Humankind has done things that seemed impossible.
I don't mean to sound giddy and too optimistic (freaky optimistic, more like it). This is my voice speaking in fog and I'd like it to echo everywhere. You're the absolute coolest person for reading this (and considering all of my crap, so thank you~) Spread the love, why don't you?
Someone out there could really use it right now.
~Love, love, and tons more love,
Choco
Back Again, B-B-Back~
Back from the dead...for good?
Who knows.
*shrugs*
If my danged SCANNER WOULD WORK *glares at evil scanner, which is downstairs at the moment, collecting large sums of dust*
But anyways~!
^^
Happy Easter-was-yesterday day, peoples!
One of my sisters went to NY last week and brought me back
The World's.
Largest.
Hershey's.
Kiss.
*throws confetti!*
My god, the thing is HUGE
O.o
But somehow, I've only eaten half the hollow part, and then there's 7 ounces of pure chocolately Hershey's original Kiss goodness.
xD
I ate chocolate yesterday. YESSSSSS...
I attempted to draw something on Paint because I felt horrible for not posting in such a long time.
...It turned out that maybe I shouldn't have brought that picture into the world.
Don't look at it, it will burn your eyes with virtual pineapple acid!
ACID, I TELL YOU!
Dum dum dum dum duee dum~
I'm so bored.
And my guitar, Rise, is being a serious JERK.
*glares at Rise*
Rachel, help meeeeeee!
And gosh darnit, I'm so bored.
>.<
I have a weird urge to draw some fan art of my own stories.
Self absorbed, much?
*slaps self*
I miss you all!
*throws cookies everywhere*
And by god, I swear, if I hear ONE MORE TIME that they're 'bakees', not 'cookies', I will shove them down someone's throat.
Cookie is a DUTCH word meaning 'little cake'.
It has NO MEANING WHATSOEVER as to what method you use
to make them crisp and edible.
>.>
~Choco
Well, crud.
Since I know everyone *heavy sarcasm* has so been looking forward to my new artwork, I must say something before my scattered remains blow away in the wind, never to be seen again...
wow.
That was dramatic.
Anyway.
So allegedly, the main computer that has the only scanner has a virus on it, (I'm on a laptop--whoo~ ) so artwork flow is going to halt and car crash together into a huge brick wall. With graffiti on it. Because I said so.
Lol. So until I figure out how to fix the computer, I will be thinking of all of you and angrily cursing the stupid scanner.
Adios, amigos!
*salutes*
~Choco
HAHA~!
Finally!
Well, turns out that one of the scanners had worked.
ALL. THIS. TIME.
And my mother had 'forgotten' to tell me about it.
>.>
This process is a little more complicated, but it's all good now. ^^
I just wish the O hadn't put that stupid maximum 3 posts a day.
That's kinda annoying.
Whatever happened to the all out scanning party when you've been procrastinating for months and have all this artwork?!
What happened to the good times, man?
Anyway.
So, yeah. I'm back!
=D
