Some Academia


I like the word "academia" because it reminds me of the word "macadamia". Anyway, I thought I would post some stuff up of what I have been doing this semester!

Back at School


Yep. Haven't been posting much since I started school again, but I made this during a figure drawing session tonight, and I thought it looked kind of cool! It's done in black pen, red micron, cherry red, and carmine water color pencil, and to tie it all together, WATER BRUSH PEN!



my greatest investment (7 dollars at Robert's Bookstore) of all time! Just fill it with water and you're good to go! I've done plenty of drawings with just one fill too!

Post #This don't count.


Had a midterm today to study for, and two quizzes tomorrow, which will explain why I didn't post yesterday and why I'm not posting today. Sorry! The analysis of the top 50 "best" game endings by Guinness will continue tomorrow.

'Ave some songs for now.


Yeah...it's not her song, but I like her voice better. So shoot me, hahaha.


Anyone who has noticed the pattern will know that I've seen the movie Cadillac Records recently. Hahahah, it ain't too good, but I really like the music from that era, so any movie with that genre I'll watch without question.

Chalk Heart Candy

I am in a creative rut today, but enjoy some of Pascal Campion's art. He is a man who seemingly never gets creative ruts, but really, he probably just powers through them!
Post #16: Internet, ya done fucked up.

So a couple days ago Guinness' World Records released a list of the best 50 video game endings, aaanndd...

Flirting and Protesting


I woke up on Saturday morning with a nagging feeling in the pit of my stomach. I turned on my computer and went to http://accessnow.tumblr.com/ to check one last time...where was the San Jose ACTA protest going to take place again? All week I had known about the day of action but I wasn't planning on going.
Post #15: Recovery day!


Sorry for the short post yesterday, I had a soccer game and I was pooped.
Today I'm not too sore, which is good, but my ankle is still sore after I rolled it yesterday.

Anyway, the Grammys are today and in honor of Skrillex winning a whopping 3 awards. I'll post a Skrillex thang here.

Switcheroo


So in that drawing I made of Dood 'n Rook in the style of Bill Watterson's Calvin and Hobbes, Arjay was bothered that he didn't get to be Calvin. So in order to show Arjay how disturbing and impractical it would be if I were Hobbes, and he were Calvin, I just drew up this quick sketch.

I saw this on the cover of one of Arjay's Calvin and Hobbes collections in his bathroom and thought it would be appropriate, unfortunately I haven't been in there long enough to flip through it yet.


Post #13: Today I saw..


Today I saw the Statue of Liberty change shifts. There's a tax place a couple blocks away from where I live who has people dressed up as the Statue of Liberty to advertise their place. Today I saw TWO, count 'em TWO statues of liberty, but it was only for a fleeting moment, as the other one walked walked and faded into nothingness. :|

Anyway.. check this out.

Post #12: Oh, you know nothin' much, just...


Got my sweet sweet new baby monitor! I've got 3 screens set up, two are dedicated to my laptop and one is dedicated to my xbox, which would be the new giant monitor that Mimi gave to me. As I wait for this guy on Fifa to stop watching the end of the game highlights I'll get on with me postin eh?

Please don't think less of me..



Bonjour


So Tuesdays are my agonizingly long days at school, but so far I've been pretty good at keeping myself occupied for five hours while I wait for my evening class to start.

A Soft Revolution


I took this title from a song by the band Stars, I thought it applies to how I feel about this project that I
saw from a friend on facebook. I just had to share it! It's a really awesome idea that's partly art and partly revolutionary against the forces that are compromising the integrity of the internet we know and love! But mainly it's just a really cool idea. Check it out!


Post #11: No Slickdeals socks yet..:


Hallo. Today was monday, and today was boring. I had all three classes today, my math classes are alright, they're not long enough for me to get bored in, but my Unix class is just stoops. Hahaha.

So Mimi's dad is going to buy her a new widescreen monitor, and guess who gets her old one. DISGUY. If I can clear enough space on my desk.. I can have 3 monitors. Yep, just sit and let that one sink in for a while... Ahhhhh..

Three...

One of the Greatest Things in Life

Are watercolor pencils! I just bought some today from Michael's Crafts store. I wasn't really expecting the pencils to be so great for the price, but they are! Even better that they were only five dollars! Here are some experiments I did

Break is over, bleh! 


I haven't been posting because I've been back at school. Which is good, but sometimes a drag. Anyhow...I thought I would just loosen up and just appreciate the good stuff in life! This is Dood 'n Roosk in a parody of Arjay's favorite comics, Bill Watterson's Calvin and Hobbes!!! Cynicism and optimism in perfect harmony!




Post #9: Everyday I check Slickdeals for socks


Short post today. I gots a quiz and a midterm to study for on Friday. Have two songs of the day
