Or,just simply, Sensei Ryuu.
So yeah, I joined the community here at theOtaku back in 2007 and havent been able to stop since.
I try to update frequently, but unfortunately there are unentertaining dry areas in my life, so taht happens...
But yeah, I was introduced to manga by my cousin and my favorites are...

Samurai Champloo
One Piece
Death Note

Though I still like manga alot Im slowly drifting towards photorealism more and more, so my portfolio is a bit of a mix.
Music is great.
I play guitar, and I adore Jack White. But not in a gay way.
And if you havent caught on yet, I am a boy.
Colplay and the Killers also rock.
I like alot of other bands but I wont go into it.
So...

Be kind dont diss on me and comment or I'll sick a something horrible on you...and it wont be pleasant...

Strange Things

Well heres the update on my would-be love life...
So. There's this girl I've known from grade school who's pretty close friends with Gaby(the girl I like). So I asked her if she could talk to Gaby about me and then relay the results back to me. So she tells me
"She definitely likes you more than a friend but she doesnt really want to go anywhere with it right now because she doesn't wanna mess up the friendship." Okay. Whatever that's supposed to mean, its kinda good but Idk.
So my confidence is inspired a bit but I still feel sorta doubtful. Btw, my family is really good friends with Gaby's family.
So after school that day I go to the school where both my Dad and Gaby's mom teach and wait to go home. So I'm sitting there in the library and then Gaby's Mom comes in and says
"Patrick, can I talk to you?"
"Okay..."
So this is what she says...btw Katie is the girl who I asked to talk to Gaby...

"Katie can't be trusted. She's tried to make matches before, and Gaby asked my advice on something and I wanted you to know. Gaby considers you a great friend and doesnt want to mess it up blah blah blah."

So now I just want to be completely honest and get to the source...I want to just talk to Gaby. Unfortunately we are never alone at school so I haven't gotten the chance.

What is HAPPENING??!

The Matinee of Weekends and Shortcomings

I like making my post titles sound really deep, when they're really not.
Or are they?
Anyway. Im on the last day of the glorious four day labor day Weekend. I really didn't do anything at all...I just sat around.
Boring right? Whatever.
Anyways, I did do something yesterday. We went to a little Labor day festival. It was quite a bore. I was hoping that one of my friends might have gone and we would meet up or something but that didn't happen.
BUT I DID GET COTTON CANDY!
:D

And then I did most of my homework yesterday, and I don't really have that much but there's this whole workbook thing online for Bio and it takes forever to load and runs incredibly slowwly...
Dial-up is a stupie.

Anyway, I got some art coming. Im gonna do this picture of Cleo and Leo and than I'm gonna post some new character designs for RATS...
DISFIGURED GANG MEMBERS NAMED HEROD AND LUCY!
Herod is the sickest name ever.

So that's that.

Boredom invades Meh feeble Mind

Hi everybody...
so I'll get to the point. I'M BORED.
SCHOOL IS BORING. I don't really know why I am so bored all the time, but I am. It doesn't seem like other people are. And I'm not really bored during school, it's just that school is boring.
I don't really know what I'm saying, eheh...
I don't really have much to draw either. I want to do a black and white portrait since all my watercolors are awful. So if y'all could hook me up with some black and white close-ups which I could be interested, It would be much appreciated.
Nothing too "blonde", y' know.
Anyway. Im hoping I can get into the play, but the issue is I don't know when auditions are.
I might also join the soccer team. But Idk. I'll have to ask the Athletic director and such.
So yeaaah....

How are you?

confuzzled

I am a very confused person right now. I just have alot of conflicting emmotions right now. For instance

I feel stressed. I feel like I have so much homework and like I'm expected to do so many things, but I really don't have that much to do. I'm sorta lonely b/c highschool is big and I haven't made many new friends. Well. Idk. That's not really true. It's mostly b/c Gaby(my love) is showing more affection and openness towards me and I feel like I should really say something but the more I don't the more lonely I feel. I'm sad because my sister left for college yesterday and I talked to her alot and she was my go-to person for help. I'm worried I will be left in the dust socially b/c my friends hang out with a very different crowd than I'm used to. Idk. It's only been three days but I really want to have more friends. More people I can talk to.

I don't have as much time for art.

D:

I just think I need to sit down and stop time. Things are moving too fast. I need to make everything pause and I need to tell myself things aren't as bad as they seem, cause they're not. I just feel so odd.

The Asylum

So...today was my first day of school. Not too thrilling. I didn't meet anyone new or very interesting. Nothing insane happened. hum. It was quite normal actually. Except for the fact that I don't have a planner, which made things quite chaotic. The teachers gave us a bunch of these sheets they wanted signed, and I didn't know about half of the stuff.
And I feel sorta stressed becuase I feel like they're things to do, which I'm not doing. Maybe I'm just nervous.
Idk. There's all this online stuff we have to do and really, half the stuff we could do off the computer, JUST HAND US THE INFO ON SOME PAPER!
It's so ridiculous. Whenever I wanna check something I've gotta turn it on, wait for it to boot up. Wait for my dial up to dial up. Then I've gotta wait for my homepage to load. And then I've gotta get to where I'm goin.

WHAT A DRAG.
