ehh...im not dead...?
yeah...i can no longer get online and update everyday (or even close to it...as if no one's noticed). i only have two excuses, and neither of them are very good. 1)im busy 2)im lazy.
well, we have a pretty cool sk-b assignment this time in art. famous singer-colored, name in bg design. if only i could choose between Brad Arnold (3 Doors Down), Ed Sloan (Crossfade), Chester Bennington (Linkin Park), or Mike Shinoda (Linkin Park). idea sheet thingies for our open projects are due on Mon and all i have is my name and all the dates he told us to write down. and right now, i wish i had a camera, because Shadow is napping and its so incredibly cute!! she's curled up in our papa-san chair! sooo cute!! >.<
yeah well ive been drawing a lot lately but i dont think ill scan anything cuz my sk-b is in the other room and if i get up, i might disturb Shadow. hhmmm...well i saw Corpse Bride today (finally!) it was really, really good. people who dont like musicals probably wouldnt like it too much, but if they hate the movie just for that, then they have no appreciation for Tim Burton's genius.
i guess ill get that sk-b now....since Dad got Shadow up... he could've at least gotten the camera first! that scene had "Kodak moment" written all over it!!! *grumble* ~_~

bleh....
man...it's only week 3 and i'm already dead tired... no hw this weekend! yay^^ Art II is pretty fun if you dont count the sketchbook assignments... most of them are kinda stupid and take a long time. he gives us a week to do one, but it has all this crap you gotta do, and you have to work on it on your own time, on top of after-school activities and other hw. that aside, we're currently working on a 3D maze using 2-point perspective. i hope mine comes out like i want it, because my idea sketches for a space-ship cockpit interior are really cool, and i never knew i could draw sci-fi.
well, about other stuff. a quiz in Algebra 2 (or advanced algebra, whatever the hell they're calling it) and a test in Intro Physics today. open notes in Physics (yay! i love you Mr. Glodich!!), but the math quiz was murder. took me more than half the hour to do all 13 questions.
um.. what else...oh, this past Tues. was my first day back at dance. i'm only in Jazz this year, though i want to be in ballet, also, like i was last year. 2 classes is more work, but it's definately worth it in the end. it's bittersweet, though. i sacrificed ballet for guitar. starting tmrrw, i'll be taking guitar lessons (the dance studio i go to has them. they're so diverse there...)

school... meh...
well, school started yesterday, but i couldnt post because i had math homework (yes...hw on the first day -_-; as if the boring first day lectures werent enough) and then i had to go to that class at Micheals (it's a weekly thing) followed by making my lunch for today because im sick of the school's food. since we're connected to the middle school at the cafeteria, its been the same kind of food for four years. im done with that.
i could rant about how they totally f***ed up the transportation system is, which, by the way, worked perfectly fine until the damn budget cuts, but i wont (it takes too long). our new bus driver drives really fast and blows down our street. our 25mph street. she doesnt know the route at all (there's a certain level of acceptance with that for a new driver, but she is just clueless).
the first day, Japanese was pretty cool because everything was turned off, so we really didnt have class at all. it was boring, but still kinda cool. we just sat around and talked. today in Japanese, the stuff was working, but there were complications, and we had the German teacher instead! it took about half the hour, but that was eventually cleared up and we met our Japanese teacher, Hartson-sensei. oh, and i dont really like my advanced algebra teacher. the class is actually like algebra 2 or something...whatever. all i know is that taking this class will lead me to calculus. i dont know where the other algebra 2 class goes, but its different somehow.

new art up!! ^__^
ok, so i finally posted some art. i could've sworn i had more than three to submit, but i guess not. i'll find something new soon, i hope. anyway, i'm getting nervous. it's Saturday night on the last weekend of the summer!! ;_; Jenny's ready, but she was really hyper today, so maybe that's why. i'll be ready when i get there. except this year, i didnt get to go to the school and scope out my route. i have a map, but i like to run through it in real life at least once. i planned it all out, shortcuts and things, but i really dont know where most of my classes actually are. i'll be able to get to the correct hallways well enough, but finding the classroom is a different story. the numbers are usually covered up, and though most teachers have signs posted on their doors, some dont. oh well... i have a few classes with friends, so i'll just follow them...

eehhh.... well... i'm not dead ^^;
yeah, so i went MIA for a while there, but i got a combination of lazy and busy (yeah, weird, but it's possible). it's 1am right now, but i'm not really tired, although i might ramble. i ramble when i stay up until the early morning hours.
anyway, stuff happened. cant really remember what, but stuff happened...and then i have an art class at Micheal's (that store place...) that i'll be taking with my mom, grandpa, and aunt. it should be fun, though, they're artsy ppl...fun to be around... anyway the other stuff that happened was i got my schedule, i hung out with friends, and i wrote some stuff (short stories 'n things), and i drew some stuff...
i cant remember where i was going with this....oh yeah, well i got the classes i wanted and the easiest schedule on Earth. nothing changes all year, except Intro Physics changes to Genetic Biology, but it's still the same hour. coolest part: i have Japanese I! and i have it with my friend Jami^^ i also have Art II with Nikki! ^^ even better is that it's all year!!
*rant warning* subject: One Piece...eventually...
ok, so before i go, i want to talk a bit about Toonami. i stoked about Naruto coming (September 10th!! yes, i memorized the date... stop looking at me like that!) and i trust Viz to do a good job. they did Inuyasha and s-CRY-ed (i think. they do one of the new Adult Swim animes, and they do a damn good job) really well. but i cant shake my feelings of utter disgust at One Piece. i wish they would take it off the air, or at least bring it down to one episode a week. 4Kids makes me want to puke. i tried to bear the edits and complete absence of a single drop of blood, and ignore the poor voice acting because i love the manga and i wanted to like the anime just as much, but the line was drawn when i first heard Sanji's voice. it almost makes me wanna not watch Shaman King, either, just because it's by 4Kids. i rant all the time to anyone who brings it up in a conversation about how the One Piece anime completely sucks with every fiber of its 4Kids being. i'm praying for an uncut dvd with Japanese acting and english subtitles. believe it or not, i held back with this rant.

oh no!! i haven't posted all week!!!
sorry about going all MIA like that. a couple of things that i got for my b-day was Katamari Damacy and DDR, so i'm always playing those. i also got The Sims, so whenever i get on the comp, im usually playing that and it's slowly consuming my life...
i have been drawing, but mostly it's all in the sk-b that Erilee got me for X-mas and it's too big to scan. which reminds me, Shadow chewed up the corners of it this morning, luckily her teeth marks arent on any of the actual drawings. meanwhile, we had a family party today at my aunt's house and we had pinapple upside-down cake, and the was some topping on the bottom of my plate and it got on my sk-b, which was open to my chinese dragon pic!! which i had just finished inking!!! ;_;
all the other days i was either busy, drawing or playing video games. on Thursday, i got a new drawing book for 2$ ^^ B&N was having a sale! ^__^ its got a lot of stuff on bg's and some good storyboarding tips, though i don't really like the art in the demo images. one last thing: we were sitting outside without any tables to eat at, but i WASNT using my sk-b as a table. i simply rested it there briefly so i good move things around.
sorry this got long, but i wasn't on for a while....

stuff!!
ok, so the new puppy, who we named Moon Shadow (Shadow for short), is adorable, but its like im her new mother or something because she follows me everywhere, and she wont sleep at night unless she's in bed with me, where she lays on top of my pillows so i cant put my head anywhere. she's also teething and has some nasty puppy breath.
ok, um, tmrrw's my b-day!! ^__^ and my grandparents are coming up from FL and will be arriving tmrrw to give the gift of no privacy. dont get me wrong, i love my grandparents (especially since theyre the only 2 i have) but its hard to keep your privacy when ppl are sleeping in your living room. NEW ART UP!!!

its sorta long, but that's because its full of interesting little stories that you dont have to read
ok, story time! i was too tired to mention this yesterday, but that was the best trip to Cedar Point ever. lines for the Magnum and Mean Streak were virtually non existent. Millennium Force was probably only about a half hour, Mantis was only about fifteen min, Disaster Transport went pretty fast, and MaXair had a short wait (it seats 50 ppl at a time) and Demon Drop had no line at all.
llama story! we were home alone when a neighbor called saying that her llamas were running free and spent an hour herding them back. we didnt know how they got out, so it wasnt much of a surprise when we found they had gotten out again. The second time was a real trip, with hiking through thorn bushes, spiky trees, trekking across fields and being eaten by mosquitoes. it took about another hour to get them back again and we found the gate that someone had forgotten to lock and took care of it.
I had to get up early AGAIN today. Needless to say, I was NOT happy. I get to do it again tmrrw and probably Sat, too, just for good measure. i cleaned all day today, and Daddy says I get to vacuum! ^_^ i hate to vacuum! Bright and early at 8 tmrrw and were off to get the new puppy (im still attached to Jazz, but im a little excited) followed by vacuuming! Then furniture moving! what an exciting day I have in store! *sarcasm*
p.s. sorry, but im afraid there wont be any art until tmrrw if I finish early and actually get on the comp, Sunday, or Monday.

sleepy and exhausted...
ok, so i was supposed to go to Cedar Point yesterday, but AAA has the hours from hell (they close at 3pm!! and they dont open very early, either) so we had to get them yesterday and we went today. i didnt post yesterday cuz i spent the whole time cleaning my room (small room, big mess, my work ethic. no wonder i slaved all day and still have work to do..) Cedar Point was fun, the new MaXair ride is totally awesome, long story im not gonna tell and i'll probably update tmrrw and post the From Here To Infinity pics. right now im tired and hav to get up at around 7 to go somewhere far away for a few hours, come back and sleep...
