I've got some art trade stuff I need to do for neopets, but I've decided to put up a Kiriban.

So, if you catch my 1,500 pageview, and screencap it, then I'll draw you a picture. Whatever you want, a sketch, a cg, a fullbody, a chibi.

Yeah. I /doubt/ anyone is going to catch it, but hey, free art.

So here's what you do:
You see that I have 1,500 pageviews.
You hit the Prnt Scrn button on your keyboard.
You paste the screenie into your favorate art program.
Save it and upload it to deviantart.

Then send me a note, and If your the first one to get it, you
get free arts.


Oh hai, speaking of art trades, I might do them. So note me if you want to, okay?







Next on the agenda:
I've been meaning to put this list up for a LONG, long time now.
It's an art challenge. I want to do it because it gives me the best excuse ever to practice. Seriously, I don't draw enough. And if I don't draw, I can't grow. Time to burst outside of my box, eh?

So here's the deal:

1.) Make 100 pics each pic having a theme listed below. Each pic should have ONE and only ONE theme to it, for it to count.

2.) No time limit so have fun

3.) The main picture should be drawn but not limited to. for all fair purposes, people are allowed to use their paint programs and photo shop to create the pic.

3a.) pics should be of own artistic ability. You may not edit photos, or break any other rules set out in the Da etiquette policy. Your pics can be anything from sketches and doodles to great master pieces. Just have fun with it.

4.) The list below is to be placed somewhere in your journal for others to see that......
A.)You are in the challenge
B.)What you have completed

5.) make sure to update this list and check off what is done and make a link to the pic

6.) In the comments for your art work note if it is part of the list and what ONE theme it is.

Which brings me to the last thing I want to talk about...





I want a subscription!
seriously.

If someone buys me a subscription, I'm willing to go to the art extreame. Hell yeah.

50 peices of art, for you, for the price of a 1 year subscription.

50. Peices.

I might even go to 100. Might.

Is it tempting?
I hope so.





I should probably set up one of those neat little lists with my real life friends and my online friends. First, I have to figure out who my online friends are. Because though I comment on a lot of work, and talk to a lot of people, I'm not sure who's my 'friend' and who's 'the artist behind the art I comment on' and nothing more.


Well, ta ta for now. I want to draw.

death in the family (oh noes!)

So, ahem. I would first like to say I really enjoy the new look of the journal update page. It's pretty badass.

Next, has anyone noticed I kind of dissappeared for a week? well. I'm back.

See, last friday, my dad comes in my room and says "Start packing, you're great-grandmother is really sick and we have to go see her."

And I'm all "WTF!? Are you kidding me? I can't just up-and-leave!"
And dad's all "We leave at 4am in the morning. Weather you pack or not, you have to come."

and I complained I didn't want to come, and he was all "Mickey can come too!"

So. I shut up, and packed, and we were off on the road 4 in the morning. erugh.


My great-grandma died before we got there, and it's not like I was forced to go to the funeral or anything, but I hate my up-north family sort of. I love them to bits, but I hate how every time I see them it's:

"My, how much you've grown!"
"You're turning into such a fine young lady."
"-pinches cheeks-"

We stayed with my aunt on my dad's side, and she has this HUGE house she build herself. Everyone wasn't home most of the time, so me and Mickey were by ourselves.
We played Monopoly, and swam A LOT.


Now I'm taaaannnnn.


I'm glad we didn't have to stay with Grandma. Mom's side of the family is really Christiany, and I can't swear at all in her house or anything. I have to be absolutely perfect. you know, sit up straight, eat with a -fork-. Eurggghhhh.

I'm SO GLAD to be back. I slept for so long last night, because we were on the road for so long. But it also took me awhile to actually fall asleep, because me and mickey had to share a bed the whole trip and I was so used to him sleeping with me I couldn't fall asleep without that weight in the bed next to me.


I've got a lot of stuff to go through, and a lot of resting to catch up on.

SO GLAD to Be back!

Dear Deviantart, if you ever want to see me again.

Hullo deviants.
If you ever want to see my art on here again, you will very much have to find a way to get me un-addicted to Tegaki-E. because it's wonderful.
And lovely.

and I don't know why, But I draw better when I draw on there.
So, I'm going to get some school work done, seeing as how I only have one day left to finish like 8 weeks of work. eurgh. I hate math.



And, I went to this resort type thing today. I got so sunburned. And I wore a really skimpy bakini. Like, not just string, but even though the bottom was tasteful the top didn't cover much. So everywhere I went all the guys were staring, and they weren't hiding it.

It really pissed Mickey off, Lol.

This one group of guys actually waited around to see me step into the outdoor shower thing (the shower you use in your swimsuit before you get into the pool so that you can get off any outside junk) and get all wet. then they kept staring when I got in the pool.

Then these two middle aged dudes stopped playing their game of tennis to watch me jump and dance after I scored a point in the game of tennis I was playing.

Eurgh.

Soooo burnt.

Where do I want to go? --University Related

Alrighty then.
Its 4 in the morning, and all I can think about is life and death. Not in that morbidly emo way. Just that life is over too quickly and then everything is gone and how do you know if you accomplished what you wanted in life? How do you know if you were really FUFILLED!?

Then that got me thinking about little me, years ago, who would proudly smile and tell strangers (When mommy cued) That "I want to be a Marine Biologist!"

Which was lovely, really. Because at the time I did. IT WAS MY DREAM.
But not, it's like, this is real life, and I can't stand the sight of blood or fish guts, how am I supposed to be a Marine Biologist? I just...can't do that kind of thing. I feel bad, because there's a part of me whose still 3 years old and wondering why we can't swim with the fishies.
:(

But I've always thought about a career in writing, because I love doing it and have been told I'm very good. I realise it's hard to break into a writing (and art) career, and I really don't want to be living in a cardboard box for the rest of my life. Heh. I mean, I'll have Mickey, hopefully. So, he's always willing to support me.
But I don't want to use him as some sort of money-crutch.

And what's worse, is that the surefire path to cardboard-box-dom is not having a job at all, or any sort of plan.

And that's kind of where I am. I've been telling people "As soon as I get out of Highschool, I'm shooting straight to Ireland, no questions asked" but I've got no idea where to go and where I'm going to live. Just that I'm going.
What am I going to do when I get there?

I need a plan.

So, right now, at four in the morning, I'm doing something I've been putting off for years.

Looking at colleges.

I guess, I put it off so much because It's a sign that I'm older, now. A HUGE choice -I- to make, and if I fail it's my own fault. I don't want to be thrusted into Adulthood only to make a mistake that could ruin my whole life.

Yeah, these are my 4am thoughts.


So, I'm looking at colleges riiight now, as we speak. Well, as I type.
And I actually found one I'm really interested in. Amazing, right?

University of Vermont. I know, Vermont isn't Ireland, but Vermont is stable and planned and comforting because I know where I want to go, What I'm going to do, even where I'm going to live.

Sort of.

I'm trying to find an apartment in the Burlington area right now. 1 bedroom, preferably allowing pets.

Because if the place doesn't let me have a kitten, I'm seriously sneaking one in. I don't care if they throw me out.
Well, I do, but at least I'll have my kitten.


And, I'm going to need a job in that area as well. I've got a firing on my record, so it's not going to be an easy thing to do, but I'm going to start looking. I'll need a summer job here as well. I might take art commissions, if I improve, because right now my art is trash and -I- wouldn't buy it.

Okay, maybe not trash. That's a bit harsh, even for me.


I know one thing I DON'T want to do is live in campus. I just..I don't know. I don't like the close proximity of campus housing. If I can't find an apartment, though, I'll live on campus for my first year if I absolutely have to.
A roof over my head is still a roof, nomatter where it is, right?
And oh god, I don't want a roommate. -clings to Mickey- If we get an apartment, we can live together. And I won't have to live with someone seriously scary. Which is a possibility.

Vermont is really beautiful, so I'm excited that I might be living there.

I say MIGHT, because a big flaw in most people is to have one plan and stick to it and be happy.

That's a flaw, because if I don't get into Uni of Vermont, where does that leave me?

Card. Board. Box.

So I'm going to have a couple back up plans. Champlain College is one of them. It's a very nice Private collage. I've seen some pictures. Not as Pretty as Uni of Vermont, but still beautiful.

And unlike Uni of Vermont, they offer courses in professional and creative writing. Something I can DEFINATELY do.

Right now, I'm looking at art courses, foreign studies, and several language courses. Including GREEK.
Those are at Uni of Vermont, though.

And I'm concentrating on back-up plans. Or, at least trying too.


If all else fails, I'll got to PCC. Urgh. But since mostly everyone I know is going to PCC, I'm tying to stay as far away from PCC as possible. I want a fresh start, where people don't already hate me for being weird. I want to go out into the world, not stay confined to where I am now.


I really, really hope I don't have to settle for PCC. -sigh- I don't want my degrees and whatnot from a school famous for letting anyone in.

"If you fail highschool, go to PCC."

Seriously. Urhg.



So yeah. That's what I've been doing. Looking at schools. If anyone has any good recommendations for colleges, I'd love to hear them. Anywhere is fine, really, as long as it's not some place with like, tornadoes every day and a rapist on every corner.

I'd also like schools to preferably have courses in writing and art.
Though, I MAY do Zoology.

Always gotta have a backup. <3
