[09 Apr 2008|10:42pm] |
So I felt it was time for an update.
So last week, I painted a pair of shoes. I already need to redo touch them since a can of acrylic fixative did the opposite of it's job.(It ruined it instead. =( )
So TOMORROW I will be retouching them.
Oh, yeah. So I now call my house, The House Of Vomit, since all week everyone has been throwing up(and some having diahrea). Nikolas, Keeley, Ryan, and my grandma all had it(and Vada had it last week). So that's been fun.
And my guitar teacher told me to quarantine the house and not to be afraid to kill off my family if it threatens the entire world. XD He's quite amusing. it's funny watching him cringe when you mention certain bands. Or hear him do impressions of songs. He's incredibly interesting.
Oh, today, I got an application from Borders. So I'll be filling that out and hoping to be working there by May and out of Dairy Queen if all goes well. =) There's no way in hell I'm gonna be at Dairy Queen once summer hits. I'll die. X_X
So once I retouch those shoes, I think I'm gonna paint my white shoes then. I'm not sure yet what it is gonna be. I go back and forth on what I want.

It must be buried under... So lately I've been getting alot of creative ideas in my head. (and I've been making sure to write them all down) Most are for a comic strip that will probably never surface onto here because most comics I do are for my own amusement, and though they have great and funny ideas in them, I usually hate the artwork in them. So if I do form somewhat of a liking to them I might post them onto deviantart. But that's the furthest they'd go. Oh, but I did do a drawing recently that was cartoony that I actual love.(Note: 90% of cartoony drawings I do, I hate.) And actually it is now my background on here. But the actual drawing is much longer in height and much shorter in width. But I turned it into a background. I like the drawing alot though. Lots of symbolism. It feels good to actually have something completed.

[21:00] OTAbass06: i always stare at that drawing you made me b4 i go to bed
That made me smile. =)
Well, first off. Across the Universe. AMAZING.
hahah...
and I FINALLY figured out what I'm going to be for halloween. Well, first off before I get into that, I have to go into my day. Today, i went to Michael's, Party City and Walgreens. At Michael's I got leave garlands, boutiques, etc..and I got a crow too. Then I went to party city and got 2 light bulbs and makeup. Then got eyeliner at walgreens. Then I went home and prepared for my Fall photoshoot that I've been wanting to do. So I started doing my makeup and OMG! The makeup turned out amazing and I was thinking what would be a good shirt to wear w/ the theme and then this idea for a t-shirt popped into my head. And then I'm like 'OMG! Why didn't I think of it before! I can be Autumn for halloween.' I mean, I LOVED the concept of the girl from the Renaissance Faire and I've been wanting to do the Fall photoshoot since August. And then once I thought of a shirt idea, I'm like 'that's what I can be!' I want to make a t-shirt where I cut up the sleaves, neck, and bottom of the shirt to be the shape of leaves and then I'll paint leaves all over the t-shirt. Then I wanna get a skirt and decorate it w/ leaves. And then I'm gonna wear a long sleeve fishnet shirt under the leaf shirt and where fishnet stockings. Then have leave bracelets. Then I'll already wrap leave garlands around my head and body. And then I want to do my make up like I did in the photoshoot. I started w/ green in the inner part of my eyelids and then faded out to yellow and then to red. And then w/ eyeliner I outlined a leaf. It was sooo awesome. And then I might draw on an extra leaf on my face for halloween.So I'm pretty excited.

I'm having a fucking bad weekend.
Lets see, I had work last weekend and I didn't even know about it. And I checked my schedule(twice) and they said I wasn't scheduled. And my assist manager is basically blaming it on me that I didn't check it on friday.
then i've been watching kids constantly while my mom and sister are out. Then today is bridgeviews garage sale thing and I orignally told my mom about wanting to go. And what happened? lexie, my mom, and my dad go, and I'm stuck watching kids. UGHTautpihrentkjraet;o.
and denis has started smoking again.
yeah, i'm in a real good fucking mood.

| Dreams. |
[24 Aug 2007|12:13pm] |
So I'm gonna go and do a post on dreams I've been having lately.
Well, lets see. hahah...well, lately my cell phone has been getting 800 calls from some 866 number. And like a few night ago I was having a dream that it was calling me and the next day like some one was talking to me and they're like 'did u know The Forecast(band) was trying to call you last night to hang out?' and i"m like 'what?'. They're like 'yeah, they heard you were pretty cool and wanted to hang out with you.' and then i'm like 'oh, man, so that was THEIR number. shit!' And like I wasn't sure whether to call them back or anything. lol. it was funny.
Then I had a dream that I was taking pictures and I wanted to get this one shot of storm clouds behind this group of people but they wanted to get a group shot(including me) in this one other angle first and afterwards I turn back and the clouds had already past by and I'm like 'man, i missed the shot!' and i look up and storm clouds were passing by REALLY fast. and that's the only thing I remember. I guess it was a predictment of the bad storms we had yesterday.
Then I had a dream that I was walking down the street in Chicago and at the corner there was this merch booth with the guy from Math the Band(an electronica band) performing in front of it. And at first I was the only one standing there and watching him and he was singing to me.(lol) and then more and more people were showing up and i'm like 'i gotta tell denis about this!'(denis introduced me to this band).
Then I had a dream that I was up in the bleachers at oak lawn ice arena and like these 2 girls were randomly shooting at each other and like they kept almost hitting people and ppl would holler at them and they'd just shoot at the people then(and would always miss). And then they almost hit the section where all my baby siblings were and I was like 'hey! you almost hit the babies!' and punch the girl. Then she shoot at me and the first time she missed and then the second time she got my shoulder.
crazy dreams.

| Take back, couldn't step it up. |
[13 Jul 2007|05:12pm] |
So this week...well, on monday I went to the mall w/ denis so he could get new pants. I ran into Mike at Hot Topic. We talked until he got off work. Denis found pants(which later on his parents told him to take back). Then we came back to my house. I forget what we did at my house. lol. then I walked Denis home(and Denis thought it was funny have a soaking wet tree branch smack into a my face. So I pushed him into someone's sprinkler.)
Then Jamie picked me up and I spent the night at her house.
Next day, I watched her kids and watched a shitload of disney movies & pixar movies.
Next day, same thing. then Jamie and her husband got in a HUGE fight when I was leaving. It kinda sucked. Then I was driven home. It was actually a pretty funny car ride. Jamie screamed songs off key on the way home. It was SOOOOOO funny. Then got home.
Next day. I saw Harry Potter in the morning. it was really good. Then Denis and me walked to the dollar store. Got some candy. Denis got a sugar high while in John's car. Then we went to my house and watched Garden State and ate spagetti. Then we did a photoshoot. We first involved a keyboard. And then we hung Denis w/ balloons.(lol. we fake hung him) It was a fun shoot.
Then today, i've just been editing pictures and all kinds of stuff.

So I pretty much have gotten the car taken away the other day. I misjudge how close my nose was to this one car and ended up hitting it. It sucked. I was freaking out so bad. Then I was freaking out for the rest of the night for how I was gonna tell my parents. and I told my mom this morning. and yeah.

So let see over a week ago I graduated. I wasn't really sad. Especially after realizing I wasn't really friends w/ anyone from the senior class. I just associated w/ them in school. Yeah, I used to be friends w/ stacy, but it's not the same anymore.
So lets see, the day after graduation, I went downtown. Loads of fun. Check my myspace for the pictures. They are AMAZING.
Me and Denis have been hanging out non-stop lately. Like we've practically seen each other every single day this summer. I'm still trying to figure out how we haven't got sick of each other yet.
So lets see. I've been editing t-shirts lately. One was a success...the other was a total disaster and I'm still trying to think up ideas for it to fix it.
The painting, rug, and door is done in my room. Denis and me had a paint fight during the painting process. lol. So all that really needs to be done in my room is get my bed up. Ugh. Which i can't have it where I wanted it before. Which SUCKS. So now my whole layout plan is ruined. And I want it to go long ways but then I don't know if I'd still have it where i can set up a photoarea so i might get stuck putting it back how it was but then my room wouldn't look as big and it SUCKS!
Lately, my new obsession is Joan Of Arcadia. It's the best show ever. And it sucks that it got canceled 2 years ago. Denis has lended me the dvd's for it and it's like addicting. I've been staying up til midnight or passed watching it.
Next weekend is my graduation party. Should be awesome. I also get to go to the Fall Out Boy concert the night before. YAY! But then have work meeting an 8 in the morning. UGH!
And then that tuesday I going to the mall superearly to get my paramore CD and t-shirt(free t-shirt w/ CD!!) and probably gonna get the Circa Survive CD since I haven't gotten that yet.
Oh, yeah, and I went to Hot Topic on friday for a listening party for Paramore's new Cd. It's AMAZING. I can't wait to buy it. And I ran into Monica there which was really awesome!

[06 Mar 2006|10:32pm] |
So today, I was going to brush my teeth & such & I go to turn the knob on the facet when I notice that the knob doesn't feel right & I immediately pull my hand away & look down. The facet I'm looking isn't the one that was there a day ago. It's totally different & it's way shinier. So I'm trying to figure out, whether I'm just crazy & we've had that facet the whole time or if we actually did get a new facet.
So I guess we did get a new facet. Yesterday.
So my weekend. Well, I've spent alot of it drawing. And cleaning. And watching movies. And that's basically it.
Other than the fact that some of my relatives came over yesterday.

Well, we were suppose to watch Life Is Beautiful in US History, but we watched some stupid informal video instead. I was mad. Then in wrkrm, I like ended up talking to Sean for most of it.My painting in art is going well, ppl have been commenting about how good it looks lately. Hahahah...last night, my sis, Justin, and me were watching American Idol & my sis was holding the baby, and like some girl is singing some slow song about a hero & Nikolas looks at me & he holds his hand out toward me & it was just really funny & then like I touched his hand & he immediately pulled his hand back. lol. Then today, I stayed home to watch the baby. And that's basically it.

Bright Eyes - Lover I Don't Have To Love |

So I haven't updated in like a week. Lets see. I had the ACT practice test on thursday. It sucked, but I got to have lunch w/ Stacy. Friday. I don't really remember what happened during the day. I know on friday night I went & saw Date Movie w/ Liz. It was good. Ya, so I've decided that Liz is a really immoral person. Yep. Saturday. I did like nothing. I discovered a video called How To Be Emo. It is sooo awesome. I started another Al Ricco drawing. Sunday. My little bro's had his b-day party. It was fun. My mom almost dropped the cake on one of the kids. lol. Then i came home. Started writing a story. drew a bit. Then this morning. I woke up. Discovered that they made a movie based off of How To Be Emo. It looks soooo awesome. I wanna see it so bad, but it's not released on the internet yet(it just premiered at some place on fri). Lets see. I wanted Constantine today. Then I just spent the rest of the day writing more to my story. Tomorrow. I have school. Sucks.
Go here: www.somethingdirectory.com and watch How To Be: Emo. It's awesome.
And then you can go here: www.whatsemo.com to check out the movie based on it & you can wait the trailer & such. It has like the same ppl who played in the orignal and a few others.

NINJAS!' then is like 'hang on kids!' & he turns the bus & the Ninjas fly off...it's the greatest thing ever...
