I didn't get accepted into this one foreign exchange program. But y'know what, I had my suspicions behind that and I didn't think I'd get accepted. First of all, there were a bunch of people probably applying to that and my essays were pieces of crap. Second, the way the application was...it sounded like I had to be ethnic and even the picture of people who went one year...none of them looked like me...like a completely white kid, they were all hispanic or some part asian, or something...
And I just heard about it by chance, so I was never really having my heart set on it...so I'm okay with not going. And there are other programs I can get into and I could probably apply for this again after getting some experience of what I was doing.
Though I wish they'd give us scores or something. I like seeing where I am...>3>
But then I just remembered that I have to apply for this art school thing, too...TT^TT I don't wanna do it...but my mom says it's really important. But I don't like it...these are liiike the anime haters...>3> I doubt I'd get in with my art. They seem like they want the same kind of boring art.
I'm tired of realism, and sculptures, and what-not. It seems like some people are very stubborn with art. It has to look a certain way to be art.
What bothers me is that the guy who was supposed to give us tips told me to PUT IN A BACKGROUND. I HATE BACKGROUNDS. In fact, my favourite pictures don't even have backgrounds in them. My favourite kind of photographs don't have backgrounds in them...well...maybe some shading for walls or whatever...but it's pretty backgroundless...I guess he meant to create a fuller composition, but I have a big problem with that.
It seems like almost all my pictures have a full body in it...>3> I can't figure out how to get out of the habit. I get really nervous when doing just faces 'cause I have no clue what I want to do with them...>3>
Oh, by the way, have any of you guys read Noblesse? Have I talked about this before? I also highly recommend that manhwa. It's in full colour and the art is AMAZING. And the comedy is...so hilarious...it hurts...But I feel bad for the main character..TT^TT He keeps misunderstanding the world's most simplest things like how to open a door...Which, I wouldn't know either..but still...XD It was one of those door things where you have to press a button and there are bunch of different buttons that mean different things.
The fact that it's always so serious and there is very high tension, and then it turns out to be nothing is HILARIOUS! XD That's the main kind of comedy in this...and it hits you every time 'cause it seems like most of the time they're being serious...but sometimes it ends up being hilarious.
I'm trying to work on some presents for people. I want to also do two christmas pictures. One neutral one, and one with my characters Klan and Reese. Though, both of them don't have very significant designs.
Klan's just some guy with visual-kei-ish brown hair and wears tight shirts. And Reese is some guy with long, soft hair who wears expensive clothing ('cause he's rich). And they're best friends~! X3 And Reese is in love with Klan. And by in love I mean IN LOVE...not a simple crush. Klan is Reese's world. That's how he bases everything. He believes it's him and Klan against the rest of the world, though Klan is just a social butterfly who just happens to be good friends with somebody really anti-social, who is Reese. I love them as a pair. Original I thought them up 'cause I had...I guess it was a day dream about how Klan was calling somebody because he saw too cute girls at the mall (who are some of my other OCs, the best friends Mikii and Mini) so he tried to get a double date with them and Reese, but Reese thought it was a date with him and Klan so he was very excited until he realized what was really going on so he was very embarrassed.
I doubt I'll ever write something where that actually happens...it's just how I came up with Reese.
Reese is a richy rich kid who actually likes being confined, he likes learning and everything. He used to have private teachers, but his parents thought he was becoming to anti-social (and they thought right) so they sent him to a regular public school and he's outraged that the teachers are terrible compared to his private teachers (well, his private teachers were some of the greatest teachers in the world...see...he's the rich...XD). And somewhere down the line he met Klan who seemed to share kind of the same idea about education. The both hated public school and dropped out (O.O) because they didn't think the quality was there at all, and they didn't like the other students who didn't want to learn anything.
Klan's just a social guy, though. I doesn't like learning with other people who don't think learning is 'cool' or important, but he's probably friends with some of those kids! XD Klan is also into fashion...which has nothing to do with anything...but that's what I base him around. He's the fashion guy...O.o; Like how Poe's the witch...'orz And Reese is the rich boy, Mikii the outgoing best friend and Mini is the more conserved best friend, Abyss is the weird guy (that's all I got'ta say), and Rikan's the other anti-social who wears a fox mask...XD
Rikan is a character I rarely talk about...but I think I've said something about him....O.o; I haven't put much thought into him. He likes comedy a LOT and hates people who aren't comedic...O.o; Something like that...
I also don't talk about Mikii and Mini that much either. They're kinda like Luki and Noki from DOGS, but they're best friends, don't look alike, and actually disagree on somethings.
And, no, I don't think I've spoiled anything. The story I'm planning doesn't revolve around the life or Reese and Klan or anything. Klan'll probably be the main character, but his past is almost meaningless. It's just one of those things you'd like to know about a character like their name or age or something.
I need to think some of these characters through and come up with a good character sheet for each...hrmm...
I have so much stuff to do...>3> I'm a terrible procrastinator..."orz
Also, I think I hurt my mom's feelings because I told her I hate where I live, and she wanted to move here, so she probably thinks it's her fault, but it's not her fault or anything. I guess it's an okay experience, and I did like El Paso better, but I'm kinda glad we moved because look at El Paso now...not a nice place to live...way more crime than there was before. And I just can't ever like where I live because it's everything I hate. But my mom really likes it here...and I can understand that she wants to live out in the country and anything. I don't mean to offend her by saying I hate it here, but that's my true and honest opinion. I do. And I'll never love this place.
In fact, I've been having several nightmares about this place and almost feared for my life last night (of course, I was reading lots of berserk...and then I felt something wet under my feet before I went to bed...which was probably just my mind playing tricks on me...but I wouldn't be surprised if there really was a psycho under my bed...that's what I expect from the south).
There should be a name for the fear of living in the south. I have a phobia of it. I think it's all because of The Green Mile and the news. There's is pretty high crime and lots of weirdo stuff going on. I guess in the city there'd be high crime 'cause there's lots of people. I would be very surprised if there wasn't. But there aren't that many people in Southern cities as there are in big cities and it still has high crime...not that I live in a city...I live in a very very small town and there is still high-ish crime. I had never seen so much stuff about drugs until I lived here.
I guess this place made me grow up...but I didn't want to grow up...but I'm just being stubborn...Still...I think I'd feel better if I hadn't gone to people's houses or looked around...>.> It freaks me out.
Hahaha...XD Omigosh...sorry...yet another really long post...I just got caught up in the mood.
