Holycrap, it's been A MONTH since I last blogged. O.o

I haven't been really up to much... Just drawing and procrastinating, the usual stuff.

But every time I see that face, I just get filled with so much inspiration that it makes me want to break out into a little dance number right then and there.

</cheesy>

Just had a random thought. :B

What would you say to me if I told you I've been married 10 times in the past two years?

Time flies when you're having fun with the logo of the first thirteen colonies under the St. Louis Gateway Arch.









This lazy blog post was brought to you by Elvis Presley's Ceiling:




I'm in the middle of an unanticipated art block, for some reason... It's annoying how a week-long vacation can actually reduce your skill with the tablet. I should be practicing, but, what can I do? I get hypnotized by little shooter games that cheapened their special effects. Seriously, though, the Gunbound effects became annoying while I was away from it. I can't stop playing though. *_*

LEGEND OF ZELDA MOVIE YAY!

Hmmm... Also... Carsten and I have been together for a year and a half now... o.O Time flies when you're happy and having fun! xD

CATAGORY ONE : ABORTION
1] Do you want abortion to stay legal or be illegal?:
Legal. Otherwise, desperate girls would be doing... drastic... things left and right.


2] Would you ever get an abortion yourself (not counting rape or if it risked your life)?
No. Never.

3] Do you think abortion should be legal for everyone, or just in the case of rape or something life-threatening?:
Just rape and life-threatening stuff. There's still adoptions.


4] Why do you have the views on abortion that you do(ex. religion, someone explained stuff to you, etc.
It makes sense to me. D:


5] If your best friend got an abortion, would you still talk to her?:
It's their choice. I'd talk to them, yes, but I won't lie, my image of them would be a little... weird. :p


6] Should an age limit be put on abortions (ex.
only girls under 18 can get abortions or some other age)? Why?:
I don't think so.


7] What do your parents think about abortion?:
They're against it.

See question number one.


9] Do you know anyone who had an abortion and regretted it?:
Not really.


10] Do you think abortion is a responsible or irresponsible way to deal with pregnancy?:
Hmmm... it depends on the situation. If she didn't use protection, then it would kind of be irresponsible.


CATAGORY TWO : GAY RIGHTS

YES. Because LOVE shouldn't have a limit.

No. Never. xD

NO. That's stupid and it makes people lazy. Kthx.

ZOOMBINIS!
SCARY, HUH?

Seven-year-old me was sitting on my Dad's desk in his tiny apartment in Japan when it happened. Thank God for my dad's instinct of the practicality of buying a computer. And, by the way, that computer is still alive, used by my cousins back home. I should try and look for a picture. :3

Anyways, my life was never the same again.

[Well, alright, the video game was in Japanese and I didn't play a lot of it, but still, it was my first one EVER. <3]

From the Zoombinis to my DS, times change. :3

FUCK. FUCK. FUCKITY FUCK.

That's about what my mind is thinking of right now.

It's my birthday tomorrow and I just HAD to research on college funding. Fucking ruined my fucking birthday it did.

Soooo... it turns out that I'm in quite a stew right now... I can't fucking take out a student loan unless I'm an "eligible non-citizen" (which I'm not according to them...) and I can't take out a private one unless I have a permanent resident or a citizen to cosign for me, which none in my immediate family are. And I can't possibly ask anybody else to do it for me, because I don't know anyone who could fucking do it. I can't afford to pay my education if I can't fucking get a fucking loan.

And I'm literally crying right now.

I don't know what to do.

I don't want to tell my parents yet, not tonight, because it's going to be a bunch of I-told-you-so's anyways. Nobody is answering their phones and I'm stuck here without anyone to talk to. This is my only outlet.

Someone come and fucking save me. I just can't think of a way to wriggle out of this damn mess.

I.

Don't.

Want.

To.

Go.

Home.

Happy birthday to me.

Awwwwwww... I'm going to delude myself into thinking that my girl Jillian won.

But you've got to hand it to little Princess Puffysleevetotegay...



To be 21 and showing in NY Fashion Week, it's quite a feat. Although Matthew from Project Catwalk beat him by one year, Christian beats him by just being more technically-capable and seemingly experienced. But I think he may be the most-deserving person to win PR since Jay McCarroll. He's not my style, but he still deserves it anywho.



I want to see Posh Spice in a Christian Siriano original. It might improve her tack-tack-tackiness, for once.

Besides, it was kinda cute when his lips started quivering before they announced that he was the winner.

Anyways, boring season, but the finale show was a whole lot of fabulous win. Best one since the first. I'll be watching the rerun when it comes out, just to get a nice permanent image of what the gorgeousness looked like.

FIERCE, everyone. :3

I just watched an Asian horror flick that I've been meaning to watch for a while.

I don't think I'll be watching anymore anytime soon.

I'm still in complete and utter shock.

I'm going to TRY to go to bed.

I just unearthed a long-buried memory of me and a couple of friends rescuing a stray kitten from a drainage ditch. My house was the nearest, so I took the kitten in, cleaned off the muck, fed it and made it a little bed using rags and a little plastic tub we used to wash clothes in. Unfortunately, my parents weren't too thrilled to have a "filthy" cat inside the house, so I had to hide her in a balcony I could reach via me and my brother's room. I told them I got rid of it, but I continued nurturing the kitten for the next couple of days.

And I couldn't let her in the house.

One night, it rained while I was asleep and that balcony had no roof. I didn't really go as far as thinking what I would do if that would happen. When I woke up the next day, the kitten was gone. I never saw it again.

It's weird how such a simple childhood memory could make you feel a bit sad. I wonder if it would have been different for the kitten if I had gotten rid of her. It would have still rained, then. And the kitten would still have no way to get food, seeing that it was a little too young.

Well, anyways, I want a pet. ._.

That. The skirt with the little pattern going on for it.

Here's a close-up:



SAFETY PINS!

When that walked into my TV yesterday, my only reaction was: "ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?"
I don't even want to know how long it took.

Oh, Chris, you were ROBBED!

-----

Also, is anyone guitar-savvy enough to tell me the strumming pattern of The Moldy Peaches' "Anyone Else But You"? You know, the song Michael Cera and Ellen Page sing in the last scene of Juno. The chords are almost achingly easy, but being the musically-retarded person I am, I can't really figure out the strumming pattern. Help, please?

Project Runway was filled with pure BS tonight like you couldn't even imagine. They handpicked the final three from the very beginning and it's kind of sad.

The only bad thing they said about Chris March's collection was that it was "pure costume". That was NOT costume. It was creativity. And what the effing deal is it about using human hair? Is it suddenly the most disgusting thing in the entire universe? People touch other people's hair all the time, so why the disgust? And, Chris even used hair in such a way that it wasn't as obvious.

Rami's was not my taste at all, and the judges had a lot more bad things to say about it. The only thing that stood out was a dress that was actually gorgeous and my mom wanted. AND THAT THING WAS DRAPED. Drape lust. Zander was right.

Anyways, what the hell, it's still going to be nice to see Jillian and Christian, but I'm just incredibly disappointed about Chris.

Come on, skirt with a print not-so-obviously made out of safety pins? WIN. On a more than epic level. I like. I want.

PLUS: My faith in humanity has dropped even lower. Just remember, kids, you're not alone in this world. There are other people with opinions out there and it's nice to listen not only to your own voice. Kthx.
