See the Drawing? Lookit, it's there! Finally!


Well, well, well.  It's finished (finally).  Well, not finally, since it was done last thursday, but it's been scanned in finally.  Though, I hate the quality our scanner gave it, because it seems to like leaving a lot a lot a LOT of shading out, which both irks and terrifies me because I'll never get any portraits put on my computer correctly.  All right, not to worry, I have a wacom pad!!!
...
*crickets*
No, I guess it isn't the same, is it?

Alright.  No, this is not an excuse for vanity.  teehee.  It's an excuse for the excercising of my artistic abilities!!!  I actually was tutored by a portrait artist while I drew this, which was pretty darn cool.
I'm so lame, even my colorful vocabulary is dull.  >.<
Anywho, I promised I'd post this, and here it is, so now I get to email the guy (apparently) and let him know.

As you probably can't tell, I've actually been doing okay lately, work-wise.  All I have left for today is a short story and I'm home free to either paint, build the eiffel tower, or watch Pride and Prejudice again for the zillionth time.  Oh, that's right, or I'll continue throwing my room away.

My room is bleak.  I'm tossing EVERYTHING so that I can get new furniture, new paint maybe, new, well, everything.  Basically, a drawn-out switcheroo.

So anyway, this is just a quick update to let you know that I am alive.  Perhaps I should let my other blog in on this information, too.

Please keep the internet away from me... Please???

I feel like I should highlight on one of the little 'issues' mentioned in my last post.
Because I am addicted to the YouTube community (and very much a wallflower when it comes to vlogs, thanks to my mom's rules...  ahem), I do not have 'big' issues getting essays in on time...  Not even 'major' issues getting essays in on time.  I have seriously mind-boggling issues with getting essays in on time.
It does not, repeat DOES NOT, take 4 hours to write 700 words.  And yet, today I am inexplicably drawn to, well, draw.
Thanks to twitter.
No thanks to my homework.
See, to line it all up just right, I shot a glance at twitter while trying to work (sort of), saw that someone drew rohan, and was all, "oooh okay, let's procrastinate some more."  I looked.
Got inspired.
Started drawing, you guessed it, same person.  It will be posted here shortly after I'm done if it's to my liking.
But, see, I've been doing that instead of my government essay all day today.  And my essay kind of proves that.  I'm only up to about 400 words...  And I usually hit over the maximum word limit early on.  And there's my sketchbook, next to my folders, calling out my name, telling me to keep drawing, because pencils and paper are the loves of my life.
And now, to top it off, I'm blogging about being addicted to procrastinating by watching/reading YouTube vloggers' blogs, twitters, and channels.
Thank you world, I think I won some kind of award today.

Preoccupied?

Uhm...  Scratch that, I haven't posted a thing since... since... since...  since I found all of robofillet's stuff, actually.  Kept me occupied for a while.
Soooo...  I have another blog.  I mentioned that before.  And I have a friend on there, he always reads said blog (or at least makes out that he does).  That one I always post to (because of said friend), unless (of course) I'm too busy watching *cough* robofillet, littleradge, or hayley g hoover.
Consequentially, I have serious issues getting my essays in on time.
Now, with that said, I actually am in the middle of making applesauce.  Seriously.
