Sooooo I'm an Art Nerd....makes sense, makes sense.

I'll Just Post itttt

Since moonlitdream posted her school project video, I might as well post mine (but in the future, it WILL be deleted):

I did the voice of the boy and my friend did the voice of the old man.

This was done using programs I had no clue how to use, so it's done terribly! :D But I liked meh friend's voice. Also, I'm a terrible voice actor, and I just realized that that day I had sort of a cold or something so my voice sounded all rumbly....so, yeah, it sounds weird...XD

I also sped it up to match the animations...'orz

Spanish Project Finally finished! ;m;

Whiiichhhh I'm not gonna show yaz 'cause I'm gonna delete it eventually, anyweyyzzz...but meh mom is telling my grandma to watch and all these peoplezzz....WAI?! ;m;

It's not that great. It's the best we could do in 4 days...'cause me lappy-topu crashed..

'nyway, I thought I'd share meh first pic on the program Krita:

It's not a TERRIBLE program, I just still prefer SAI...>3>

It's a picture of Tegoshi Yuya 'cause I just watched that episode of Itte-Q where he went to Austria and did the skii pond drop thingy...He's so talented! ;A;

....

Well, I gotsa'ta go...;3; ADIOS!! (VERY SHORT POST)

My Computer Formatted Itself! O.O

Let's make a list of what's been going on~! :D

-My Computer Formatted Itself
- Basically, I lost all my files
- And for some reason I lost my operating system
- Somehow
- Wasted $75 just to be told that operating system was missing
- Which the computer tells you when you turn it on anyway
- My brother installed Linux
- I actually really love it
- But I don't have SAI
- And it's killing me
- Nor do I have photoshop
- I threw a fit about this 3 nights in a row and finally my mom kicked me out of the car as we were driving
- My relationship with my mom is kinda wavering
- I don't know what was wrong with my computer in the first place
- But my brother thinks it has something to do with the bettery
- Whatever that means

- I have a Spanish Project
- Due Monday
- But I begged my teacher to give us until Tuesday
- And she gave us until Wednesday
- Because of all this computer stuff
- And I'm animating it
- It won't be nice animation or anything...XD
- This has been a very stressful week

- I have 3 books I have to read...;m;
- But today I got to read The Three Musketeers...I loved it so much even though I only read the first chapter
- I have to read Pride and Prejudice for Academic Team
- I have to take notes over an Ibsen collection book thingggyyyy
- I have to read The Kite Runner for AP Lit.
- As depressing as The Kite Runner is, I really like it
- Maybe because I like stories that take place in deserts
- Or what in my mind looks like a desert
- For the longest time I imagined The Count of Monte Cristo to take place in some Middle Eastern Nation
- Even though France is fairly forest-y and Italy is no desert

- I love deserts~! <333

...I've ran out of things to say...XD

That's what's been up, yo....

ADIOS~! Gonna do more customization~! >:D

Lazy/Over Ambitious?

I realize I keep putting too many things of my plate and I don't think I can do all the things I want to do...;m; But I'll just keep piling them on and hope that by November-ish things won't be as bad~! :D

Applying for colleges...sheesh...It's not really a HUGE problem, but it worries the heck outta me. I really want to get accepted to the colleges I want to go to, but I have this feeling I won't be...and my teacher is not giving me any feedback on my essay...;m; I'll just get more forceful and hand her a physical copy to review because I want my application essays to be REALLY GOOD.

School work...shouldn't be a big deal, but my Pre-Cal. teacher is really strict....;m; I mean, he's still fun, but he's really strict and has a bad temper. I'm bad at math so this hinders me in a great way because I want an A in his class, but I always make lots of mistakes on the test...and even checking my test won't work because I've done that on the past few tests and still made stupid mistakes...;m;

I also am doing two art portfolios, which means double the art homework, and it's a big pain. It wouldn't have been as bad if it was drawing and 2d, but instead I'm doing 3d and drawing. I worry that in the end both of my portfolios will be crap..;m; I'm doing the 2d art portfolio on my own time...with my own assignments, but I worry that it won't work out...;m;

Commissions...I haven't gotten any yet, but I worry when I do (not really worry, kinda excited, I like drawing other people's OCs~! :D) because I may not have time.

Art in general...my art looks like crap...and it's boring...I don't know how to make it more interesting. This is boggling my mind. I keep thinking about the principles and elements of art, but it's not helping....;m;

Academic Team...my Pre-Cal. teacher is our coach and he's doing Arts and Humanities this year...;m; I have leik 10 times more homework from Academic Team than I do from regular school...>3> It's hard to study for....I wish I had a teacher who knew a lot about Arts and Humanities rather than a math teacher...But what can ya do. Also, since he has such a bad temper he complains a lot and it's really frustrating as a student hearing your teacher constantly complaining and being mad...;m;

ACT....studying for ACTs...ACTs aren't really that hard, it's just the science and reading portions. I have to think the same way they do. I actually have an idea on how to improve my score (underlining the important parts) in those areas. Luckily my school is having an ACT prep after school soon, so I will be ready-er for it. I'm taking the writing portion, which I've never done, but I hope since I got a 5 on the AP English test it won't be as bad....O.o; Math I've found to be much easier thanks to the Pre-Cal. teacher. He's a good teacher...just that temper freaks me out...;m;

I have a big Spanish video project that I need to finish with my friend, but we're both so stubborn it's hard to work with....and we finally finished the script, now we just need to film...so much work...'orz

Community service....something that's always on my mind...but I'm not sure about community service, how can I help my community when they don't even want me (and I don't want them)...(By the way, on this topic...I've noticed that new students are usually looked down upon heavily by the other students, something I've never realized...that's the culture of where I live, they hate you if you're new...I think it's creepy...Hinamizawa!)

Other things that I want to do in my free time I don't feel like I do, but I still want to start them...they're always in the back of my mind: learning dances, joining RP-ish groups on DA, practicing art, fanart, writing manga....

Yeah....writing manga...I haven't gotten around to writing it for these reasons...;m; Blaaahhhhh...hopefully this'll all die down eventually and I won't be stressing out as much. I never realized how stressed I was until I snapped like 5 times in one week...O.o;

Oh, yeah, and Anime Club...hrmmm...it's actually not that big of a deal this year since my friends and finally helping me more (quit complaining and realizing they also have leadership roles in the group...which they've always had) and there are so many more memebers~! :D

All this complaining....buuutttt....

GOOD NEWS~! :D Well, semi-good news.

I had an art project where I had to doodle on something 3D, so I decided to do my DS and them have this theme of good VS. evil which there often is in video games....I finally finished it. It looked really cool, I even painted in white over the screen. I knew that my DS's light would turn on, but the DS itself wouldn't so, I want to show the light turn out and make it look all cool 'cause around where it was it was painted black...

And now...my DS works...I turned it on and it actually worked! It might have been because I taped it....I was so surprised, I almost cried...OMIGOSH!!

Only bad thing about this is...ummm...I painted the screen...and I'm not sure how to clean it off...I do have some wipes that maybe might help, and the paint isn't acrylic, but I'm not sure what it is...it's kinda powdery feeling. I painted it using those paint markers...

I'm very happy it works, but I don't know how I'm going to clean it...;m; But I do like the drawings around it.

For some reason I'm really obsessed with Tengu's...that's, I think, the 3rd thing I've done with a Tengu drawing/design in it...'orz

Ahh, Tengus...:D

External Image

I love Japanese/Chinese mythological creatures...they're so very out there...:D

Like that tree with fruit that looks like human heads:

External Image

Japan has some of the strangest occult creatures...which makes me think about what life would have been like if westerners never touched Japan's shores...what would the culture be like...I feel like the art would be much darker than it is now.

Here's some nice/creepy music to end this topic~!:

Oh! And I love this song by Boyfriend. I think they are perfect for Jpop, their hairstyles of lovely I think they look the best in this video than all their other videos:

The twins with their different hairsyles sorta reminds me of the twins on property brothers:

External Image

...I want to see them with the same hairstyles...>3> That would be confusing, but also fun for the fans to try to guess them apart (I'm confident that I can since Youngmin has a smaller chin than Kwangmin..and I dunno about you...but I feel like Youngmin and Kwangmin have different eyes or smile differently or something)

Oh! OSU! Has a new beatmania-esque feature~! It's very fun! ^ ^

Bye-bye, then~!
