Day threeee.... And other stuff.

Mood: Lazy as usual
Currently working on: GAH.

Hey guys! 8D
It's Monday... so I bet no ones going to read this until after 3:00. :/ When you all get back from school...
Anyways, I'm leaving to go see my cousin and his family on Wednesday, and I'm coming back on Sunday. So I'm not sure how often I'll be on. ;A; Sorry, just when I get the chance to go on, I vanish again...

So.
Song challenge...
Full list: [click]

day 03 - a song that makes you happy

I love this song. xD You all might think it's weird, but I love it. :P My dad introduced me to this song. It was on the radio one day and I was like, "Big Country by Big Country?? Why would they make a song with the same name as their band?"
....Yeah.
Okay, not much else to say, except....
IN A BIG COUNTRY! DREAMS STAY WITH YOU! LIKE A LOVERS VOICE ACROSS THE MOUNTAIN SIIIIIIDE!!!! STAY AAAAALLIIIIIIIIVE!!!!

30 Day Song Challenge: Day 2

Mood: Morning. :M
Currently working on: A pic of a character for Wakusei's challenge; a pic of Jamal; and now that I'm thinking about it, I'm gonna work on RB:SI pages.

I desparately need new pens. ;A; I haven't started inking anything yet because I don't want to ruin them with my DEAD PENS. ;A; My dad said he'd take me to Staples today, though. SO HOORAY! :D

Anyways, it's day two for the song challenge...

day 02 - your least favorite song

I don't have a least favorite song, but there are a lot of songs I don't like. FOR EXAMPLE...

At first, I was going to choose Raise Your Glass by Pink, but then I realized THERE WAS A SONG I DISLIKED EVEN MORE.
THIS ONE.
I never really payed attention to the lyrics in the song, so the message might be alright. BUT UUGUHR. THIS SONG.... THE GUYS VOICE.... Normally I don't mind when guys sound bad when they sing if they can't help it. BUT IDK, I JUST FEEL LIKE BEING A JERK TO THIS SONG. ALSDFJALSDF. >:I
I think what I hate the most are the drums. It's like, all the drummer does is spazz out on the cymbals. And I just think the song is quite boring. :T
OKAY.
NOW I FEEL JERKISH... ;A;
Sorry. No offense to anyone who likes this song, this is just my personal opinion.

Okay. So, how's your day going? '3'

SPRING BREAK!!!

MOOD: FINALLY, I HAVE SOME TIME OFF!!!!! (Relieved)
CURRENTLY WORKING ON: IDK, BUT I'LL WORK ON STUFF!!!!!
RECENTLY ADDED: NOTHING, BUT HOPEFULLY I'LL CHANGE THAT!

Overly excited. xD;
ANYWAYS, INDEED.
IT IS SPRING BREAK.
YEEEAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!! (BOW-BA-NAAWW! BA-NAAAW!!!) (That was supposed to be guitar sound effects.) (It's from a song, disregard it if you do so please.)

Now that it's spring break, I hope I'll have more time to draw. :> Unfortunately, I don't have a scanner at the moment... I've actually been drawing these past few weeks.
If I had a scanner, I'd bombard you with sketches. HEE. Yeah.

Not much else has been going on in my life... I've had a lot of homework. :I Sometimes. I know it seems like I'm never on here, but I do look at just about everything in my backroom. xD; I'll reply to comments now, sorry for not...

Um...
MEME, I GUESS!
Stolen from Vacuumology. (which I would totally major in, if it existed.)

day 01 - your favorite song

I don't really have a single favorite song, but this is one of my favorites at the moment:

(Sorry, no music video; the video is actually kind of weird.)
It's not that old of a song... I think it's from the early 2000s. :0 Mainstream music has changed a bit...
Sugar Ray reminds me of Dare. (why? xD;) I imagine it's the kind of music he listens to. I also imagine Dare's singing voice to sound kind of like Mark McGrath's. Except squeakier. Because he hasn't quite hit puberty yet. Even if he is a senior in high school.
/ranting about NOTHING.

Um...
Yeah.
That's it I suppose.
(I NEVER KNOW HOW TO END THESE POSTS. D:)

Three Day Weekend!

Mood: convivial (thesaurus.com suggested it to me. xD)
Currently working on: Next page of OFAV (WHICH I ONLY NEED TO COLOR! :DDDD), A character for the Design the Character! challenge, and I'm on-and-off with a whole bunch of other stuff. xD;

YEAH!
THREE DAY WEEEKEND!
Usually I have a four day weekend at the end of the quarter, but whatever... MORE TIME TO DRAW. Hee.

Anyways, I'm working... I just about finished designing a character for Wakusei's "Design the Character!" challenge (link above). Just making a few changes to his clothes... (talking to myself. >3>)
I'm pretty satisfied with the character I made, but I'm a little iffy about acutally using the character since there's going to be a bombardment of characters with heterochromia, wings, and horns after the challenge... so I tried my hardest to make him unique.
DON'T GET YOU'RE HOPES UP TOO HIGH THOUGH...
His clothes are pretty boring. D:
BUT HE HAS NICE HAIR... 8D;

I've been getting pretty frustrated with desinging stuff lately because... well, idk why. D: Clothes are just hard. xD; I go to stores and stuff and say things like, "Oh, I should draw a character in something like that!" but then I forget how it looks when I get home. (I HAVE THE WORLDS WORST MEMORY. D: Well, no I don't. But it's pretty bad... xD; In January, I couldn't remember what my mom's eyecolor was....)
ALSO, ALL MY CHARACTERS WEAR SCARVES.
Okay, that's a lie. Pretty much only Tomato wears scarves.
BUT BECAUSE HE WEARS SCARVES, I FEEL LIKE I SHOULDN'T DRAW SCARVES ON OTHER CHARACTES. D:
IDK.
I MAKE NO SENSE GHALKDJ.
>:I

Anyways, let's talk about something else. :D (You can totally just ignore that beginning part.)

Something interesting I noticed is that a lot of people (particularly newer/younger members) like Tomato. Is there a particular reason for that? I mean, I didn't put a lot of thought into his character (ALMOST NO BACKGROUND STORY, HOORAY! 8D), and he has a pretty basic personality. And he's dumb. Like, literally dumb. I'm almost positive that if I made him a girl, a lot of people would hate him because he'd be a dumb, spoiled girl. :I Although, I predicted a lot of people would like him because he's gay and wears girly clothes. And for some reason, girly-men are "in". xD;
IDK, I JUST THOUGHT I'D RANT ABOUT THIS. I'd been wondering for a while...
Honestly, I appreciate that you people like Tomato. xD; I expected so many more of you to be scared of him. I myself do like Tomato a bit, but he's definitely not my favorite. :P

....
Well yeah, that's enough talking.
SEEEE YAAAA.

OH YEAH, I STILL NEED NEW INKING PENS, SO BE PATIENT WITH NEW PICTURES... ;A; Hopefully I can get some soon. D:

WEEELL WEEELL WEEELL

Mood: :?D (I'm not sure what that's supposed to mean, but...)

Bum-pa-tsh-bum-bah-bah-bum.
WEEEELL WEELLL WEEEEELL.
It's this song.
Very fun to sing in a nasily voice.
Very annoying to listen to.

UM, I dunno what to post about. xD; Not much to say.
I should probably work on planning the storylines for Dreams and My Dear Princess. ):I Storylines are frustrating.

SHORT POST! :D Thanks for reading.
A lot of people aren't online anymore...
