Hi everyone! How's January going for you all so far? Hopefully well! >.< It's gonna be a busy next couple weeks but then after that I'm pretty much free!<33 I've got a HUGE presentation coming up for my diploma this Thursday..wish me luck!
Plus! I've been working on 3 new pics!(one of them is REALLY old..but I'm just finishing the coloring as of now OTL it's got 7 people in it...) So I guess look forward to those within the week ^^
In any case..hm..what do I have to tell you all. Oh that's right!! The other day I auditioned for Mulan(my very first audition ever!) at my school and omg I got called back AND a major-minor ish role! (THE GRANDMA LOL) I was super super happy that I got in but I was a bit upset when I found out from the vocal director that the roles for the major characters(Mulan, Mushu, Shang) were already chosen even before auditions and callbacks and given to people that were in drama =/ It made me upset that they would get peoples' hopes up about getting a major role and yet they didn't say a thing!
Aside from that, I was pretty startled by some things that I saw the other day and one of them involved my friend being bullied by some guys and girls at my school(I even knew two of them because they had pushed me down the stairs 2 years back). I don't know what it was but I stepped in and I told them to stop, and one of the girls was about to slap me but the other girl that knew me, Latrisha, who went to my middle school, told her to stop. Then one of the guys just said it wasn't worth it until the dean came along and took them all to ISD.
I was really kinda scared but at the same time I'm just glad my friend was okay. She got kicked in the stomach several times and hit across the face but man I was just so scared for her >.< I'm glad that it wasn't a big scale fight or anything though...it happened next to the portables on my way to my chemistry class.
I guess it goes to say that it really made me think about fairness. I think about it so seriously and sometimes people think I'm just overly defensive but for me, fairness is a really big deal and putting someone in a position like that..I mean how could you NOT step in? Bullying is just..I mean how can we do that to each other? We're all people, and even to animals it's just not fair. No one deserves to be treated that way, nobody.
But in any case, that was resolved and I didn't tell my parents even because I knew they would worry, but I'm telling you all because I really trust you guys and I'm sure it'll be okay. Thank you all for being such an inspiration for me too, and for sticking by me when I've been in trouble!
That's it for me I guess~ so I'll see you all in the next post! Take care!<3
Hello everyone!!<33 Happy first week of January! I'm sure it's been a pretty difficult week for many of us that have headed back to school xD And yeah I agree this week was HORRIBLE for me but it ended well so I'm excited about this weekend being much more relaxing! ^^
I really wanted to thank you all for the amount of support you gave me on my latest pic for Ecne-kun for the Secret Santa event too! I was really surprised because it's only a pencil work but apparently I have good technique according to some of you xD So I guess I will have to work hard to refine that technique even further and give you even better artwork to look at in the future! ^^ *Super hugs* Thank you all SO much for your kind comments, the faves/hugs and the subs >.< I really really appreciate it!<3
Now what have I done this week..well I've finally read up to the latest chapter of Bleach so well..you guys will be seeing Bleach fanart from me in future as I post new stuff from my hiatus xDD Sorry I'm taking so long with them by the way..I did some of them on bigger canvases and therefore I've been a bit lazy to scan those xDD And also I'm mixing in some new art in between~ the next art you will probably see from me will be Part 2 of my SS gift to Ecne-kun~
So in any case I love you all so so much!! *Super hugs* The new year is off to a great start(But it'll be a busy one!) xD Take care everyone!<33
Hey there everyone! Happy New Year! My goodness it's been a really REALLY tough year for most of us but hey we got through it all! For those of you that had a good year, don't worry, I'm sure there will be many more years to come ^^ I know that this year was just an emotional roller coaster and a total train wreck for me but i think just maybe that this year will be better ^^
So! I guess it's time for some new resolutions eh? But first I'm gonna take a look at what I accomplished from my 2010 Resolutions list xDD
So here's my New Year's resolutions for 2010:
-Draw a LOT more and improve myself(after much deliberation...the most effective method I found is..MORE SKETCHING)
Hm...well I guess that's what my hiatus was for xD I did sketch a lot more but I can't say I improved as much as I wanted to though..but I guess we'll just have to see! =P
-Get into a mindset where I stop comparing myself to other people so I'll be overall happier
Okay this was a total fail xD Because of all of the stuff that happened this year I'm still stuck in this rut OTL. Hopefully I can keep working at it though~ I learned some things this year.
-Beat Final Fantasy XII xD (not a real resolution..but I thought I'd add it anyway)
YES! And no xD I haven't beaten Vayne yet but I did earlier in the year on accident(didn't know he was the final boss LOL)
-START MY KH FREAKING MANGA. GOSH I'VE BEEN PLANNING THIS THING FOR LIKE I DON'T KNOW HOW LONG xDDD
This...okay no xD I kinda lost my inspiration for it after a while because I got so caught up in my hiatus and school work load and other things and just blah T__T You guys said I should focus on my own original characters more, and that's what I've been doing =P
-Perhaps start my original story as well and introduce some of my own original characters
Yep~ I have much to tell you guys in the coming year about my original characters xD *hugs* Thank you all for the support!
-Discover more about myself and what I want...I don't really know anything about myself yet and I think I should spend more time on discovering what it is I'm looking for in life. Probably because I spend so much time on others, I hardly think for myself anymore xD
I'm still a really confused person but I think I'm beginning to understand myself a little bit better, so I'll say that this one was at least minimally successful =)
-Confess to somebody I really care about
Stunning realization that it probably wouldn't work xD I haven't lost all hope yet though, so I guess I'll just be patient~
-Get out more and get some more fresh air. I don't think I got enough of it this year xD
OH YEAH NOTHING BUT EXERCISEEEE~ (can't say I'm in shape yet though OTL)
-Smile and laugh while enjoying everything around me
It was REALLY REALLY tough to do this this year with the loss of my grandmothers and my neighbor and everything and all of the fights I've gotten into with my parents, but I feel like in the times I did have fun, I really was enjoying myself ^^
-Show more appreciation to the ones I love(yes that includes YOU GUYS!<3)
OTL I still need to work on this because YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING AND I NEED TO SHOW IT MOREEEE!
-Improve more in the areas that I want outside of just art(piano, golf, studies etc)
I think I really did actually! Not so much in golf but definitely in piano, I've gained a much clearer understanding of how to go about things I think ^^
-Think of more resolutions so I can continue to better myself as a person ^^
That's what this year's resolutions are for! =)
Well I think I did pretty good with last year's resolutions! But still OTL not all of them accomplished! But it doesn't mean I can't set some more goals ^^ Here's my resolutions for 2011~
-Continue to work on improving my art! During my hiatus, I finally came to the understanding of challenging myself to improve myself against myself only, and not compare to anyone else! I really want to go far and see what I can do!
-Get into shape! At least..more into shape anyway xD
-Figure out the meaning of the word "appreciation". It seems that I still don't understand it yet according to my parents =/
-Don't fail college xD
-MORE ART. 'nuff said xD
-Make new resolutions along the way so that I don't overwhelm myself with just these =P
I love you guys so so much!! Thank you for another fantastic year!<33 And just thank you for everything and I will try my best to work hard! *nods* Let's hope for a wonderful 2011!<33 Take care!<3
Hello everyone and Merry Christmas!<3 It's a little late into the day but I'm sure for a lot of you there is still Christmas dinner to consider ^^ I love you all SO much and I'm so grateful for all of you! I hope this day is incredible for you guys and just know that you deserve it!!<3 Thank you for being there with me all this time~ I'll see you guys soon! Take care!<3
