Friday, I have never loved you so.

Amy Winehouse's album sounds super catchy, but not sure if I should buy it....because I also want to get Origins of Symmetry by Muse. Muse, why won't you have a concert here in LA, preferably in an area accessible by foot from USC (a non driver speaking here)? Must I travel to UK to see you?

Friday is here already, and I am most pleased. My internship is going fairly well, though I feel as though I should really finish my current project.....right about now. On happier topics, I managed to improve 120 points on my mock GRE exam today. PROGRESS! The 948USD tuition is definately worth it!

Oh, the character here is Hoale Te Reunion, the Cloud Sheperd. I sort of like the retro feel of the dress.

Rough Draft (first drawing)

Bleach Pens are Love

Last night I discovered that my sink was covered with ants. Alright, that was a hyperbole but there were still a lot of little critters running around looking for food. I spent an hour trying to herd them away, and when that failed, had to resort to killing them. (I don't think I'm very good with this whole "all life is equal" philosophy. Thank goodness I'm athetist, because I know for sure I'm definately not going to heaven/nirvana/some cloudy place). Anyways, in my desperation to prevent more ant invasions, poured bleach down the drain. And when I ran out of the stuff, I used the laundry bleach pen to draw a barrier around the sink area so the ants can't wander out. Surprised to find that the stuf actually works...in warding away ants.

Couldn't sleep well thinking about the ants, and I woke up at 4am thanks to some moron next door making a racket. And instead of working the required 5 hours at my internship, I ended up staying for 7 hours. Thankfully, I managed to chat with Ancode (from Barcelona) and Charz (in land of the tea, the UK) throughout the afternoon so I was entertained at the very least.

Waiting for Kinokuniya to stock up on the second volume of Togainu no Chi.

Wishful Thinking

One of these days I am definately going to publish a small book with all the crap I draw. Actually, I want to find people who are interested in publishing an anthology for D.Grayman because I've never done something like that before and it sounds like something awesome to try.

I've also been working on some original stuff, like Furies. I don't think I've ever mentioned what Furies really is, it is just a little pet project of mine and the ideas are still forming. About a bunch of kids working in the campus postal office with ulterior plans and purposes. So far I have been working on character sketches; like Aein (left) and Blithe Bauhinia (right).

Headaches from Hell

That's right; I have a headache from hell! Methinks waking up at 6am and working until 5pm is masochistic to say at least. At least I have two weeks worth of rest coming up soon, so that gives me something to look forward to.

AND THEN THERE IS HARRY POTTER (the book) COMING OUT ON JULY 21ST. Yes, I am capslocking because I am just that excited about the last book. I'm fairly sure it'll be one of those bittersweet endings where another character (or characters) we love die off in some tragic way. But. Must. Still. Find. Out. What. Happens! I am already placing bets with my chums as to who would be dead in this book. In the meantime, we can all be entertained with the 5th installment of the Harry Potter movie series. The flashing lights in the trailer almost gave me a seizure.

Other movies to look forward to include Live Free of Die Hard (so what if we're paying to watch a man in his 50s jump around ramming cars in helicopters? The MAC guy is in it!)...and Ratouille.

Did I mention that I have recently discovered the wonderful BL game called Togainu no Chi? I don't care much about the going ons in the plot (okay, maybe I do), but the artwork is simply gorgeous. Must but the manga once I garner enough money. Gosh, I've already splurged on Eureka Seven and Summon Night 4 stuff.....

Summer Holidays

Mon tete!

I can't believe that Road just went up in a puff of smoke (and I mean that quite literally). And Chaoji, of all the people we least expect to say such angsty things!
Another random blurb: I stayed up last night until 2am having a long-distance conversation, and woke up this morning at 7am for Saturday morning cartoons. Just kidding; I had to wake up early to work on my GRE course homework due tomorrow. I never expected that there would be so much stuff to do, but I do feel that the extra work helps in the grand scheme of things. My main motivation for learning all that vocab is just so I would be loaded with ammo the next time I have a verbal showdown with my parents.

Anywho, getting so little sleep has given me a slight headache. Ever had one of those moments where you can actually feel the blood pulsing through your head? This is just like that, but slightly worst. It doesn't help living in the same building as a bunch of noise-making-asshats.

Shall post more later.

Hello, Bonjour, Hello

I started this blog in hopes of posting pictures I drew, but that I would never submit to my main art gallery ( nio.deviantart). There will also be photos, my stuff from fine art classes, and whatnot here. This blog is not intended to promote my art; its just a little place for me to post anything and everything I want. You see, although my teenage years are behind me, I still have a while to go before all that angst and emo-ness wanes off.

Feel free to read, comment, anything. I have these phases where I desperately need advice (especially in the socialising department), so input will be appreciated.
