Pain...
Wed Jul 22, 2009, 2:54 PM
* Mood: Distracted
* Listening to: That Purin song from Welcome to the NHK
My dad got mad at me this morning because I didn't want to wake up to do my training today. On my part, I really could have survived 2.5miles with 4hours of sleep, but I was still in pain from the previous days. Hey Mo, remember those sit-ups I showed you when you slept over? The kind where you twist your body from one knee to the other? I'm doing those practically upside down now =( And I'm still nowhere close to a split, so flag practice tomorrow's gonna be hell for me--I need those panels by tonight so I can start the lineart for the comic!! DX
Pyrofire2007 is helping me figure my way around commissions; I'm very thankful =3
I've been going back and forth from my virtual school to comic to something else that's not beneficial to me at all, and back to virtual school. Speaking of the comic, a classmate texted me and said he'd pay $10 for my $5 comic, even though I told him it was only $5 to begin with--this is good =D I don't know how to price the comic, though. I talked to my older brother and V-chan about it, and they said $10 would be reasonable(since it's around 30pgs)--but since graphic novels are the same price it'd seem kind of expensive...but since we're printing and binding at home(my brother has one of those special staplers and we have a laser printer)going a bit more than $5 may be alright...I'll lower the price as the days go on for Chibi-Pa I guess.
The comic is coming along nicely--a couple of my peers have read it so far and love it, although there are some parts that seem unclear(I guess that's what I get for watching so much fast-paced anime based off of 4-5 paneled manga and slice-of-life). Minto said that we actually have more done than we did last year =D My only problem is, I can draw fast...I'm just so freaking lazy. Then sometimes I spend too much time on one thing so it takes longer to complete a page. Mo, thanks for being my assistant/editor or else I couldn't have made it this far (TAT)/
Shut up KF and get back to work >=O

I hate politics...

* Mood: I'm Hungry
* Listening to: "1985"-SR-71
* Eating: I'll prolly make some ramen; too lazy to cook
I've been avoiding the last question on today's assignment for my virtual school thing-it's actually easier than the course I took at school; the last question involves looking up stuff in the past election and all I have to do is...well, here's the question:
5. Where do you think John McCain and Barack Obama would each score*? To support your answer, please choose an issue and describe the stance of John McCain and Barack Obama in regards to it.
*we had to take an online quiz where it told us our political philosophy-I'm apparently a Libertarian.
All I have to do is look up an issue and compare...I'm just too lazy =/
On another note, I've been looking at laptops and tablets again-I want a Fujitsu Lifebook D= A BUILT-IN WACOM TABLET-WHO DOESN'T WANT THAT IN A TABLET PC?? But it's about $2000 so I'll just keep dreaming. Still need to save up for the Bamboo Fun...I <3 Wacom =3
Oh, look-my mom's home from work and I'm still in my jammies!! AT 4:06PM!!
Nothing new on the comic; doing the first page FINALLY today. I'll go upload 3 of the 4 character sets today since I uploaded the 4 to deviantART yesterday-you can see all of them in my gallery. Might go out later with a friend of mine and my brother and his girlfriend to Cityplace to see a movie or something...I hope...gawd, I'm just rambling--I'll just shut myself up now. V, if you're reading this you're free to come along too =3
Ok bye.

Does this count as studying?

* Mood: Panic
* Listening to: "I Walk Alone"-Oleander
I've been reading up on the rule of thirds and colour theory and what attracts people and the like. I feel like one of those people that are paid to find out what's "hip and cool" in the "teen scene"; I've been looking up what colours attract teens and patterns and whatever else I could link together--all to find out how to make a good cover for the comic that can attract those silly people at Chibi-Pa this September.
Here's the thing: I only like researching and studying when it interests me. Who doesn't? That's why I want to majour in art and psychology; they're related anyway. Plus, it's great for comicking-you learn what your audience likes and doesn't like. I'm proud of my notes =D
Almost everyone knows about my fear of vacuum cleaners. Well, it was thundering big this afternoon(just ended a couple minutes ago) and I looked up thunder on Wikipedia to know more about 'em. Well, now I know why I don't like thunder either--vacuum related =(
Ok, I'm off for more research!! Mo, I need to lineart the main part of the cover and send it to V-I'm still working on the background. Cal, nothing for you to correct yet.

Virtual Hell

* Mood: Emotional
* Listening to: "Eat You Up"-BoA
I'm so confused...I just found out today my virtual school course for AP US Gov was approved almost a week ago-I logged in and "WTFISTHIS"-I'm lost D= I'm not big on talking to teachers--the teachers I talk to I don't even have for a class--so I don't know what this "passkey" crap for my online textbook is or anything. WHYTHEFUCKDIDISCREWUPTHISCLASSIHATEGOVERNMENTIDONTWANNATAKEITAGAINAAAUUGHH *dies*
On a brighter and equally aggravating note, I'm almost done with the lineart for the back and front covers of the comic for September--Mo, I'mma try to finish tonight so V-chan can colour it =D I'll send you the lineart so you can see--hopefully, I'll remember to upload it onto here when that happens. I also start my self-defense-maintain-a-fit-body training(usually referred to as just "training", the hyphens just explain things)...that's gonna be rough-at least 2 miles a day and other stuff DX
I practically killed my fairy-told him I'm setting up a net so he can't get in for a while cuz of complications such as loyalty and etc. I'm kind of an emotional wreck right now-I dunno what going/happening to my best friends, my other best friend, as said earlier, I practically kicked out, can't see anyone, financial crap, etc...I hate being a girl. Somebody give me some Mountain Dew, I've got a long night.
Someone Kidnap Me, Please...

* Mood: Alienated
* Listening to: "Semi-Charmed Kind of Life"-Third Eye Bl
I have done nothing worthwhile since school let out on the 3rd =D *shot* My best friends are out doing things, but I'm staying home cuz, according to Minto, my parents are losers. I need more female friends-maybe I'd have more of a life if I did.
Yesterday and the day before my dad had us move old crap from this house to the other one(it's half storage half rented out to people) so we can organize the stuff we're selling at the flea market next weekend(we're kind of tight on the green stuff at the moment). My parents are saying it's to help out, but I think getting a job will be more steady with my share of the income...but I'm not allowed to get a job. I might end up just saying "hey, take my phone back" because I'm supposed to come up with the money for my part of the bill, but with no job how am I supposed to pay for it? He says to use the money we make from eBay and Craig's List will get us somewhere, but...really? It's not as easy as he thinks...STOP BEING OVERPROTECTIVE AND LET YOUR 16-YR-OLD GET A F***ING JOB!!! *dies*
Enough of the complaining-here's what I've done so far regarding things in my personal life:
-finished 3 of the 7 character designs(clothing) for the promo; Keitaro, Zak, and Monique. Today I'm going to finish the rest since I did those three last night. Calvin's is next =3
-watched a shitload of anime
-tortured the cat
-spent my time with the fairy that crawls through my window every night(it's a human-sized "fairy"). Next time we're playing Jenga =D
-cursed the fact that even though I live in Florida, we haven't gone to the beach in sooooo long
So, today I has to finish the rest of the character sketches and get my brother to scan them in for me so I can send them to Minto to look over. If I'm lucky, maybe I'll be able to finalize the school's design so I can start the comic tonight/tomorrow(past midnight).
Also, sorry for those people watching me and I haven't uploaded anything in so long-no scanner, and Judd(my older brother) is too busy to scan things in for me on a whim.
...Might as well get back to work.
