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.

The Day on Which I was Birthed...and thus Insanity wiled it's Way into the World...

HEY E'rybody! TODAYS MY BIRTHDAY!
Yeah, you all probably think that my birthday was about a week or so ago, not so. Somehow theO misjudged that data. So TODAY is my real birthday. Thanks to all those ppl who recognized it previously though!
So yeah. I have one present though...
Actually, I have two, but due to my own unwittinglyness I figured one of them out. Actually, it's kinda a funny story so I'll tell ya'.
So yesterday I went shopping w/ my sister and my friend Gaby and her Mom.
Kay. So, during this escapade my sister bought my present. Later I went into the store she bought it in and I found the CD she bought me and it was on sale 4 real cheap, so I was like

"Hey <sister>, its only ten bucks! Should I buy it?".
This query was followed by my sisters firm
"No."
Thus, we both started laughing.

Okay. That was shopping yesterday....
Also, the one present I have is from Gaby's mudder.
What shall it be?!

And then today I went to BARNES AND NOBLE! YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In case you don't know I'm madly in love with the latter.
And at the store I bought the original "The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya". I am currently 3 quarters of my way through, haha. The manga doesnt look too good, moe-ish, cutesy, sparkly style with wide faces and huge eyes.
Blegh.

So yeah.

Anyone wanna buy me a present...?

XD

YAY(?)(!)

Hey all, I'm kinda happy yet kinda sad right now, and heres why.
Okay. So the group of nuns which run my school are establishing a cemetery on their land. So me, my Dad, and my friend and his brother are working their, cutting down trees, clearing brush, and such.
But my dad didnt take me today. He woke up early and didnt take me. And I was getting paid. So IM kinda MAD.
Money...

But Im also HAPPY becuase I won the Villain contest! YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY!
HAHAHAHAHAHA!
So yeah. That makes me happy. I dont know what I get for it though...I kinda just wanted to win, haha.

Okay.

Hey LOOk!

Hey all, excuse me for my absence the last three days, but I was camping in the DUNES! with my family and another family which we are friends with.
Heres a little overview.

TUESDAY: We woke up at five in the morning, not fun.
We proceeded to make the four hour drive to Sleeping Bear Dunes, and when we got there we set up camp and such.
We decided to take a dip in Lake Michigan, which proved to be a bad idea for two reasons,

A. The water was unbelievably cold. Freezing Freezing Freezing to the uber max, like my legs and other "places" were NUMB.

So me and my sister went and layed down in the sun. Bad idea. No sunscreen 84 degrees. Lots of SUNBURN. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

So then we went into town and met our friends.

WEDNESDAY: We went to the really large, 450-drop dune, which was at like a 85 degree angle. I didnt go DOWN of course, but a whole bunch of people did, and we laughed at them.

Then that night we went to the Dune Climb, where we climbed dunes and I got exhausted. But yeah, behind the like, main part, there was all these little trails. And one of them led to this little ravine which was bordered by these trees that released soft little cottony things.
So the ground was literally covered with this stuff, and the cotton was floating.
And it was pretty.

THURSDAY: We went home.

So thats that. Now I have an awful sunburn, but it was fun none the less.

And I am working on two pictures, so I'll try upping those soon...

Layta gaytas.

Some Random Stuff to Say, Basicially

Hola, everyone, how goes life?
Typicially complicated, I'm willing to bet.
Thats how my life is right now. Though the stuff that's complicating it are probably too minimal yet deep to share on here.
Basically, Im bored.
Hah.
Yeah. Ever since school ended I've had zero motivation and I miss my buds.
TT_TT
So I've been sitting around and looking through old notebooks, fiddling with my guitar, and eating.
We were gonna leave for the Sand Dunes today and have fun and stay there for four days, but that got canceled on account of the fact its gonna be rainy in the dunes.
SAND + RAIN = MUD.
No fun, right?

Though I am working on some stuff for a Heterochromia contest, I had one lineart which was a close-up of a face, but it looked too much like me so I ditched it, and then I did a full body shot in COLORED PENCILS! but I messed up the arms, so I'll get that up on Friday probably.
And then I might try a close up again, Idk...
So yeah.

Boring, right?

<Pasqua>

Awesome pic from graduation I found lying around on Facebook.
The one with the dark hair and glasses is me, obviously.

Tippy Trippy

Hey, whats this? TWO POSTS IN TWO DAYS?
UNFATHOMABLE!
Shall we investigate the cause for this second post?
We shall!

Anyway, yeah, yesterday my school had Field Day.
Remember that? Yeah, its where all the kids run around and play games and eat candy. However, this time we actually did something we dont usually do.
The eighth graders, now Grads, played a dodgeball game against the faculty.
Except, it wasnt just the faculty. A whole bunch of the volunteers and parents decided to play, which made the teams a bit unfair.
In addition, the faculty never went out when hit, it was ridiculous.
Well, even with this hardships the students managed to beat them 2 games outta three.
So yeah, that was yesterday.
Today I came back to school once again to go on the seventh grade canoe trip with my fellow grad and friend, Gaby.
So yeah, it was Gaby and I in a kayak and at one point one of the other canoes was horizantal across the river and we decided to ran them. So we got some speed and then hit the very middle of the boat, causing it to actually tip.
So me and Gaby were kinda like "WOAH" and kinda like "HAHA" at the same time. Then I jumped in to grab their paddles and liefevests.
So, overall a pretty fun time.
So I'm back at school right now and Im kinda peeved cause my bruv did pretty darn bad ont he Algebra test he had today and he's all "F**** school" and my parents are all like "Tutors! Meds! Summer school!"
So yeah, Im outta school and yet I still have to endure all the aches and pains.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

So, hows life?
