Mmm... Grape Juice.

So, let's see.
This week I've been at a loss.
There's absolutely nothing inspiring to me.
I've been kicking myself in the butt to try
and stimulate some creative flow...
but all it seems to do is leave foot sized bruises
on my ass.
Good news, though.
I've been coming up with some new poetry
stanzas.
writing helps calm my nerves, just as painting
and sketching tattoos gives me some pep.
It's like uppers and downers, only without
the medical tails that drag along behind.
Though I must say.
Creativity = My Anti Drug.

More later. ♥

What is the matter with you people?

Alright, have you ever had it where there's just
so much nonsense in what people are saying that all
you want to do is turn around and walk in the
other direction?
Don't get me wrong, I value the opinions
and beliefs of others.
But when someone starts openly insulting you
and your own personal way of doing things,
it just gets me really frustrated.
((A woman spent a good 15 minutes criticizing
my opinion on the beauty of body art and piercings,
then another guy spent a good 5 minutes lecturing
me on behaving like a proper woman and, in a sense,
"staying where I belong: in the kitchen" kind of thing))
That just topped off my already crummy week.
Speaking of which: Sorry I couldn't make it
to the benefit or 5-hour mini comic thing, Matt.
I was feeling really sick on Saturday morning,
and I didn't feel like infecting everyone with the
plague. That would have been even more strain
on my shoulders.

Maybe doing some sketches will cool me down.

Rise From the Ashes

Well, as you can see, I'm back.
My computer has been busted for what... 5 months now? Almost 6.
I finally go around to fixing it.
Yay.
Unfortunately, my camera is in the hands of one of my friends,
and I am without a scanner.
I will update frequently, and once the camera is back,
I should be updating with pictures of my work.
We'll see how it goes.

Virtually Dead

You know, when you go from using

the computer for 5 hours a night to

using it maybe once every two weeks...

LIFE BECOMES ABSOLUTE HELL.

I can't do school work on a computer,

I can't upload pictures,

I can't do ANYTHING.

So until my computer's fixed,
consider me being in hibernation.

I Just Have No Luck

So guess what happened Sunday night?

My computer exploded.

It's got a massive virus problem,

and now it won't even start up.

I'm at my town's library for now,

and I won't be updating with pictures

until the one at my house is fixed.

Sorry guys,

tough luck :[

For me, anyways.

Finals Aren't My Specialty

So I'm trying my best to get some more sketch time in,

but unfortunately,

my schedule's been consumed

with studying for various tests I have

coming up. Thankfully, however,

my school doesn't have midterms.

We just splurge all our acquired knowledge out

during finals. However, I'm taking two semester

long courses, Econ and Government.

The semester ends on the 27th, so the 26th

and 27th are the finals for Government,

before we move forward to Econ.

Unfortunately... I haven't touched any of the materials

for studying until now.

Hurray for me.

I'll try my best to sneak in a few sketches,

but otherwise, consider me neck deep

in studying.

Toodles.

My friend Alex is having her 16th birthday

on the 19th, which coincidentally is Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

So, I drew something for her,

but sadly it won't be delivered until the day

AFTER her birthday. I hope she won't be too

upset. I drew her favorite actress, Katherine Moennig.

I just hope she likes it.
