Dreams...
Dreams is that wonderful feeling when you know you're doing something right.
It's when the harshness of reality begins to quiet and your heart sings.
It's that look when you see yourself in the mirror and smile, knowing who you really are.
Dreams is the one thing that drives me, soothes me and keeps me alive.
It's the world I live in, the world of dreams... This wonderful, wonderful world.
This fulfilling world...
This world that is in my heart and thankful soul.

Welcome to another update staring Yours Truly!

I just submitted a new piece of shiny art “Mew kio's apricot dance"

So the verdict is…. I GOT THE JOB! (Jumps around crazy like). The person that interviewed me called me yesterday and said I did really well in the tests (the personality ones and others relating to the job) and if I had the time to show up next Wednesday to fill out the rest of the papers.

I’m SO glad that I didn’t fail the tests. I thought I did for sure since I always failed them (as far as I know since no one ever called/e-mailed me back about a job). But this time I knew what to do. Just answer strongly agree and disagree and very little of everything in-between. The best advice I ever gotten in a long time! So I meet with the guy on Wednesday and I should start training on 19th for the next 5 weeks. Then I start the job full time I think 8:30AM to around 6PM Monday through Friday. Pretty sweet hours if you ask me and the training will have doing the job like a pro by the time the 5 weeks pass. Which is costumer service by the way, not my dream job by far plus I hate calling strangers and stuff but I’ll get use to it.

There are so many things I can now plan on getting now that I got a job finally! The ideas just keep rolling in and I can’t keep up. Plus I can probably go to the con if I get paid before then I just hope my boyfriend will be able to go. This would be my first con so I want it to be with him. Then I can save for the holidays. I’m SOOO getting everything I want this year. But before do anything I HAVE to get me a new pair of head phones. GOD, I’ve been without them for about 2-3 months and I miss having them dearly. Especially when my mom bitch and nags when I’m at the computer, I can just throw some music on and melt away the negative feelings.

Since I have gotten no sleep last night because I was up thinking about everything I can finally buy I’m going to do a list of it!

• Some prisma colored pencils
• More clay and materials for my charms including some silicone to have that perfect whip cream look for my creations!
• A wii
• A PS3
• Fabric to start sewing my own clothes!
• Copic markers (drools)
• Some more trip pants and hot topic clothes ( I want to update my wardrobe so bad)
• A digital camera…a good one.
• Manga and yaoi again (I’m so getting shugo chara even though its super be hide the anime)
• Cheap ass video games (do I smell Kingdom hearts on the DS?)
• MAYBE a psp… (I do want the KH that going to be on that)
• An R2 card to get games for free on the DS
• Music CD’s! ( I love the 20 dollar for 100 rave tracks pack)
• Anime dvd box sets (I’m looking at your Evangelion perfect collection)
• A new mp3 player ( I want the IPod touch maybe too rich for my blood still though)
• More drawers to store my stuff
• A really good surround sound system for my room again
• SUSHI and bento box lunches!
• Resin and shrinky paper (more stuff for my store)
• BJD- ball jointed doll (I’m going to do some major saving for this one but I can finally get one now)
• A small vacuum for my room (god knows I need one)

That’s what all I can come up with so far but I’m so excited! I don’t have to feel completely deprived of the things I want anymore since I have a choice to have them or not. The last two years have finally paid itself off more then I dreamed off. It feels really good. Really, really good. :3

Other then that, I’ve been really inspired art wise yesterday and I drew a lot. Some sketches of mew tortes final pose of her transformation. Some doodles of me I can use for the banner of my own world here. The artist Bara-chan really got to me. I saw her latest chibi’s so that’s when I was drawing for my banner. I also got a horrible Tokyo mew mew kick and I start watching the show again. I want to draw my team as waitress chibi’s like the official picture. It’s going to be fun plus I can practice with SAI which is awesome.

That’s about it really. I did some research on the vanguard. The employee reviews are a totally mix bad. Some really hate it some people things its okay but not challenging. It’s not like I want to be challenged being costumer service so it sounds good to me. You can pay me 14 bucks an hour to do nothing much, but I will make my own judgments once I’m working there myself.

So that’s about it. Oh, here’s a picture of one of the things I was working on yesterday. After looking at some BJDs I wanted to draw one with a chess theme to it. It’s only the sketch I’ll work on it more later.

a real interview? D:

Hey all!

I finally got around making another journal post. My internet just came back after the shit went down for like a day. I swear I hate Verizon sometimes; every so often this would happen. So gay… Anyway things are okay, I got two good job opportunities coming my way in the graphic design field. The first one is at some super corporate office type place called Vanguard. They are going to be at ITT and I got an interview with then on Thursday. My boyfriend looked up the company since my internet was down. We really didn’t find much information on it at all. They just kept saying the same thing over and over nothing really in-depth on what they were about. A bit un-nerving seeing that I’m going to have an interview with them on Thursday and not to know anything about them… The career service lady told me that a lot of grads started there and the company comes down to hire workers even on the spot. They even start at 14 bucks an hour. I can use that A LOT. So I’m hoping that goes well.

The other opportunity is that my sister saw an old friend of hers during a vendor last night that works at a graphic design company. She saw my logo that I made for my sister’s company and really liked it. She said that her job is always hiring and gave my sis her card and my sister is suppose to call her back. The old friend is making 20 bucks an hour. I’m not sure if that’s the entry salary but those are impressive numbers. I wouldn’t mind working in the graphic design but it’s so hard to get in the door being that the job market is total shit right now. So I’m hoping one of those pulls through for me. I can REALLY use it. I can save up for the con that’s coming in November and for my own business. This gives the butterflies thinking that I won’t get a job and I still will be trying to get commissions off the net. MEH…

Other then that….I’ve been drawing a lot trying to do different things with my work. I want it to be more impressive and strong. I want to start doing backgrounds and just do more since I got the time. That’s why I’ve been uploading so much. I still have things I can throw up here that I need to scan again since I F’ed it up last time. I still need to color a lot of other pictures that I done including my latest picture “ichigo’s candies”. I’m really excited to color that and I think I’m addicted to drawing candies and sweet’s now. I want to do more pictures of that theme. I have another one in the works too, its more of a circus/gothic Lolita theme. I’m pretty amped about it.

Other then that I made more charms that I need to glaze and make some necklaces out of. Its little themed lattés, they are really cute and I can’t wait till I can stop being lazy and get them up here.

Oh and guest who decides to show up? That same toxic friend I had that big fallout with last year. She called me and it seemed like nothing changed as far as the whole toxic-ness of her aura. She was talking about her other friend that she had (after I dropped from the picture). How she was fake and untrustworthy. How she made her cry because she was pointing out all of her the flaws and etc. I couldn’t feel but justified because karma bit her HARD in the ass. See got a good taste of what I went through.

She asked if she can come over and I said sure just to see what she was up to and to get my freak’n Princess miyu CD back. Which looked like she was using it as a damn coaster or something :|… I just it doesn’t matter much since I downloading the OST myself… While she was over she expressed about hanging out again. I really didn’t say anything, and then while we were both drawing she asked if I missed her. I was like “uh.” I surly wasn’t going to lie to her. But before I could say anything more she was like “I know what’s it like to not miss nobody either” not in a way that to offend me or anything but in agreement. I was glad she said it and not me because I don’t want to say anything that and might start something totally unnecessary. Like a 10-15 minutes later she left out.

I can’t really say that I want that friendship back it’s just too much of a pain and I feel like my focus and energies would change because of it. I don’t need that in my life. I glad she’s okay and all that but I don’t think we well be “friends” at least on my end.

Oh yeah, one last thing. I tried the SAI program…. It owns Photoshop in getting clean line art. I love it to pieces. I just got to get use to it more.

Anyway, thanks for listening! I hope everyone is having a good week. And I will see you soon.

new picture!

Hey all!

Just posting to let everybody know about my newest picture "ritsuka"! Show it some mad love. Also I got other picture up in line that I will post soon too.

I has degree!

Aye guys… Guess who got their Associate degree?

:( :| :) :D 8D

MEEE! (Jumps around wildly)

Yesterday was my graduation and it was by far one of the best days of my life! Even though my boy friend and my dad couldn’t make it because of work. And get this, I was voted by my class mates for the outstanding student award. I got a freak’n plaque for Christ sake!

I thought I was going to be horribly depressed because that night before I gotten really sad about everything and didn’t feel like doing it. I even broke down in like the wee hours (2AM) in the morning because of just everything. A whole lot of sadness, not wanting to see this end even though I’m uber happy to finally get out… Just a lot of things. This is what I call graduation syndrome. I never felt it like this before, I had a slight taste of it in high school but I hated that place like no other so I was happy. Even though I cried for like two seconds before I walked out on to the stage thingy… Which were happy tears in the first place.

But ITT Tech, despite the thousand and one flaws it had I really loved that place. The students and most of the teachers were like another family I would say? I don’t know what it was; it was just nice being in a small school were everyone almost knew everybody. Then all the friends I met there and all the good/bad times I had… You can never replace those. I even met my first boyfriend there. No one could have told me “Hey, you’re going to have one of those by the time you came out here!” and even if they did I wouldn’t think it would be Tom. A wonderful experience I had there under the other entire BS.

But the graduation went smoothly for the most part. They pretty much told us what they wanted us to do. No rehearsal or any of that crap… awesome. But I was still really down the day of and my family could tell. I started feeling better once I got prettied up and was on my way there. I had a latté on the way to the bus stop and on the way to the Radisson hotel where the graduation was held. Once I got to the hotel and heard the voices of my class mate my sadness totally disappeared! They were happy to see me and I happy to see them. Even seeing the class douche bag made me feel good.

The best part was that everyone was being them selves! The douche bag was talking about nothing and no one gets him. The internet camera guy came in with his one and only camera. My first crush was once again giving some weird yet cool fun facts on anime and things. I came in with a latte from dunken donuts. My best friend Victor as usual said he was going to come in early and ends up waltzing in at exactly 6:59… Mind you the graduation starts at 7:00PM and the grads are supposed to come 2 hours early.

Good fucking times man.

He had to rush and get his cap and gown which was kinda big on him then rush in line.

So we had the ceremony and my sister and mom came in after some dude had started the worst speech on his life ever. Boring doesn’t even start to describe it…

So after that everyone got there special awards and I got mind. I went up to the mike and was like “Wow, I’m really shocked because I thought xxx (my first crush) was going to get it”. Then everyone laughed… So after all that stuff we went back up to the second floor and I went up to Victor since I haven’t seen him all day and he was crying! He gripped me up so fast and we start hugging and stuff. It was awesome because we promised each other that night before that if one of us cries we would be there to cry also… I didn’t cry but I still was there for him which was awesome. Then I hugged the class douche bag which was awesome because I knew he always had a crush on me and I figured what the hell right? I hugged him and he had his arms away from me like he didn’t want to hug me back. Then he was trying to play it off saying “your to short to hug! Blah blah blah” …

I was waiting for my mom and sis to get where I was at so I could take pictures of my friends but they trying to get some food which was no where enough off by the way. :/ So then they called us again to have the class pictures and then we were off. I was hugging everybody, trying to get e-mails, and getting pictures taken. Then like the most awesome happened. Out of no where my crush came out of the wood works and gave me a hug… I won’t lie I was waiting for that hug for a long time and it was awesome. Then we and some of my class mates were getting our pictures taken. So my crush start taking pictures of me and my family and I just went out and said “You know, truth be told I have a crush on you for the longest” everyone was like shocked and he was like “what? Really?”. Like the best part was that I wasn’t afraid to tell him since we both already have someone and that I was over it… I was fine about it, and then I remember telling myself when I first started liking him that I will tell him that I liked him in gradation… I felt so good doing it too. Oh did I mention that he was engaged and had a set of twins coming? I knew that before my confession I was just letting on some major facts that made me get over that really fast XD.

After that me, victor, and my other class mate was talking and stuff for a while and went our separate ways. I almost forgot the girl that said she liked my final project, she goes by the name “Eevee”, her boyfriend (didn’t get the chance to get his name) and another one of her friends and former ITT grads came for the graduation. We talked more on the bus home and finally got her e-mail and number.

Once downtown me, mom and sis went to chilis and ate there. The food was really good and the dessert was awesome! It was a chocolate chip cake with ice cream on top with a chocolate shell! I was so full even before dessert but I managed to eat all the ice cream and take the cake home with me.

So much more happened in between but that is as much as I can get down. It was a very good day and I slept like a champion till I woke up with some horrible stomach pains. I think it has something with the food because I ate the rest of the left over’s, went to take a nap woke up and the same stomach pains came back. Thankfully they went away and will hopefully stay like that.

So that’s it. I wanted to tell everyone how great the day was.

I hope you enjoyed this post. It will probably be the last one about school for some time. XD

I will see you guys later!
