Progress? ._.;;;

[Time : 1:40am]
[Mood : sleepy]
[Music : Ladies' Night // Hamasaki Ayumi]

Today... I think I got a lot done. I'm trying to find a balance between all of the things that I'm doing, and I think I'm starting to get closer to it.

I seem to be tired all the time. I think it might be because I'm sleeping too much? :\ Because too much sleep does make me feel tired. But then I don't wake up in the morning, because I'm tired. DDX UGH. I don't know.

So... I have an alarm set to go off at 8am. >>;;; [actually it's my new cellphone. xDDD] Now let's see when I actually get up. But I also have my stereo set to turn on at 10:30-ish, (I think??) so I shouldn't sleep past then. I hope. DDD:

Hmm... what else, what else. xD;;;


I think I get distracted easily. Too easily. xD
So it seems like I have to lock myself in my room and turn off my computer in order to get anything done at all. xDD How pathetic.

Ah well, I better go. Before I get distracted again. xDDDDD

Na na na na na....

*sigh* I'm up late today again... I don't know what kind of sleeping schedule I'm starting to have. I'm not even up all night long anymore. D: But I seem to ba way too tired all the time.

I must be sleeping too much. DX

I guess it's time to start setting an alarm in the morning. xD;;; And if I wake up before everyone, I can have tea. :3 I don't really know where that came from. xDD But I know that I have a bunch of tea that I need to use up soon-ish.

Speaking of tea... now I want to drink some. xD;;
I've been dressing weird lately. Like wearing skirts over my jeans. xD;;; And I wear gloves inside the house.
[I think I've always liked gloves. I even cut the fingers off of a pair so I could draw and stuff with them on. xD;;;;]

I think that I'm getting a new cell phone. :\ [I don't even use the one that I have. But we're on a family plan, so I suppose it works. Somehow. xDD]
And I think it has a camera in it. *_* I always wanted to take pictures with my phone. And the camera that I have... doesn't like to work half of the time.

I ordered an Abyss novel the other day, and it's going to take almost a month to get here. o.o;;; Which I suppose is okay, since I have to study a lot of kanji before I'll ever be able to read a book in Japanese. xD;;; I'm thinking that I should be able to pick up some of the dialouge. ._.;;;

This is getting long. o.o So I'll go soon. I haven't even started working yet today.
Oh, and about the glove thing? I wear them when I'm working on doujin pages. xDDDD Since you're supposed to touch the page as least as possible, so the oil from your hands doesn't mess with the ink and screentone. xD

Gah, hopefully in a couple of months, I'll be ready to publish.

Okay, that's all from me~ See you all later!!♥

Yuki da~

It finally snowed last night!
Kana woke me up and told me that it snowed enough to finally cover the grass. xD;;;

I apologize for not updating recently. ._.;;;
But it seems like MyO has slowed down a lot.
I remember last summer, it seemed like everyone updated every day. xD;;; It was really busy. But then again, I suppose it was summer, and people didn't have much to do...

I've been drawing a lot more lately.
I can see how much practice I'm going to need, but I'm also starting to see what it is that I can do well. Which is nice for once. xD;;; Usually I'm way to critical of my own work. >>;;;

Well, I better get going, hope you all are doing well~

O.o;;;

Well, my sisters and I just got back from being at the park, we had to leave our house because of a natural gas leak. D: It's across the street from the houses that they're building.

Ugh, I hope they get it fixed soon, so that we can open our windows. @_@;; And I'm starting to get a really bad headache.

I've been doodling a lot more lately, which I think is helping me improve on proportions. Even if they look like just a bunch of scribbles. xD;;;
I wish I could make my lines more fluid, though. ._.;; I'd love to draw like that. xD;;;


Ah, I hope they fix the leak soon. @_e;;;
I'll see you guys later~

I got a 'How to Draw Manga' book yesterday. I have some already, but this one was done by a bunch of shoujo mangaka. <33 A lot of time, they make me feel either really really inspired, or heavy with how much practice and work I know I need to go through. ._.;;;

I have to start practicing more with my inking pens. :\ And screentone, and markers... and other things. (_ _) I wish that they sold manga supplies around here so that I wouldn't have to order everything online. Acutally, I think they have some COPICs in the University book store. They might have ink in there too. I'll go look sometime.

Because otherwise I have to buy from the internet and shipping kills. X_x;;;

I think I'll go out and walk around and take refrence pictures later today. xD;;; I feel like getting outside.

Here's my drawing of Luke!

I think that's about it. xD;;;

I'm actually about to go to sleep. We all have to be awake in the morning to go and do a bunch of errands. =_=;;

I'll be taking the test to get my driver's permit. FINALLY. xD;;; I had one before and then it expired and we moved, and it's taken me this long to finally be ready to take the test.

I finished two pictures today. But I was too lazy to post them on DA today. xD;;; I'll get to it tomorrow, I think.

Kana says that she's very sorry that she hasn't been posting much and she says hi to everyone. ^_^=

I'm also sorry that I've been doing very long updates lately. I don't seem to have much to say when I update every day. ._. But if I don't update everyday, I tend to forget and stop updating. xD;;;

I hope everyone has a good day~

Sorry for being gone for the weekend.
I had a lot of things that I needed to sort out. I was about to give up on drawing doujin. But I've realized that I still have plenty of time, and that I don't need to rush. And the last thing that I want to do is give up.

So I'll keep going.

I plan on updating my DA account with some new art soon. :D And I'll put a link back here when I do~

That's all for now.

Sorry~

Sorry I didn't update yesterday. ><;;; A lot was kinda going on. I found out that Senpai may not be moving here like I thought she would be. I thought that she was going to (maybe) move here and we were going to share a place, but it looks like we may not be doing that.

She might end up moving to Seattle with a couple of other friends. (Actually the people that we formed the doujin circle.) Which brings me to a thought that I've had. I'm not sure that this is going to really work out that well. I mean, I'm willing to try a lot, since doujin is going to be what I'm doing anyway. But ... hmm... who knows.

I won't be updating again until Monday, because I have a lot of things that I need to work on. Hopefully I can get a lot of practice in this weekend.

And then, finally, I'll start working. On what I really want to do. I think I'll work on the pencil sketches for a story that I already have lined out....

Ah, I think that's all for now, I'm off to do ... something.

GAH.

[Time : 3:53pm]
[Mood : busy]
[Music : Starless Night - TRAPNEST]


I'm sorry I'm late to update today. My mom was using the computer, so I couldn't. That and I woke up late. Like I have been. xDD;;;

I've been trying to practice drawing a lot. Since I really want to improve. And I need a lot of practice with my tablet, too. It's really hard to get used to, but I think I'm getting the hang of it.

Eeep. I have to work on redoing my website, like I've been half-way planning for the last while. xD;; That and I have to work on the website for our doujin circle, as soon as the layout's done. Thank you so much for making it~ You know who you are. xD;;;

So... I better get back to inking a picture. xD;;; It's of Luke, from Tales of the Abyss. Here is the sketch. Well, actually the unfinished sketch. :\ But anyway. I'll post it when I'm done~

Sorry this was so short! ><;;

See you all later~

GAH.

[Music : sakasama no chou - SNoW]


Lately, my days have been starting at 2pm. @_@;;; I'm becoming nocturnal. My room is so dark that if I close the shade on my window, I can't really tell what time of day it is. So, I feel like I'm up early today. xD;;; The only reason that I'm awake, is because I woke up when Mom was knocking on the upstairs floor for my sisters to go upstairs since they were going to start school. (They're homeschooled)

I don't think that my updates are going to be as long as they have been, since I'm almost running out of things to talk about. xD;;; Not much happens to me each day. ._.

I'm trying to practice drawing with my tablet, since I haven't been lately. It takes me a really long time to finish one picture, though. @_@

Right now, it's raining outside. It's been really cloudy for a few days, so I'm glad that it's finally raining~ I really like the rain. I might go and take a walk in it sometime later. xD

Well, that's all for now, I have to get to work. X_X
