Fish, Food and Films

F is a fun word.

So yes my Fish/Ocean Mythology project is coming along quite swimmingly (pun intended :D )I've been looking at different artist/animators styles to experiment with. I took a look at Tim Burton with a creepy Angler fish since. Well the majority of Burton's work is creepy. Wonderfully creepy

He's Called Milton <3


Speaking of fish, we now come to FOOD. Yay the second F.

I am absolutely starving, and dinner isnt until several more hours.

You all just needed to know that little fun fact.

So to pass the time I've been watching... thats right 8D FIIILMS. Speaking of that one though X-Men First Class, I was really hesitant on seeing that film. Mainly because of the poor quality of the X-Men films. *cough*last stand*cough* but I have to say. Wow. Fantastic directing, casting and just,... overall love everywhere. Team Magneto/sexappeal for the win!

Winter Illnesses.

Why is it that a vast majority of people seem to fall ill during thr winter months? I thought that cold air was sopposed to be good for you gosh darnit! That and it's supposed to do something with germs, terminate them or explode them invisibly without special effects I believe.

I am just tired of the winter blues, over the weekend my voice was going and now I am in the midst of a persistant nasty cough. You know the kind that makes you feel like the inside of your chest is bleeding and being squeezed through a tiny tube? no? oh must just be me then.

In other news I can feel the sluggish anti-motivation/procrationation coming on. The high that I was feeling over the last week with this project is running insanely low which is slightly worrying but not too much. I am absolutely determined to get the top marks that I can for this project or else heads and expensive art supplies are going to roll over hot coal before being chewed out and spit on.

What a nice visual.

Happy Tuesdays!

November Flu

Am I regretting not getting the flu vaccination?

perhaps.

But it was inevedible, every year without fail voice = gone, nose= Rouldoph, ears =ringing and so on and so forth. However what it does mean is all the Ben and Jerry's icream that I want. XD


ICE CREAM ASSULT!

Improvements

They are always good to see, weather it's as simple as getting more orginized and managing your time better. Learning something new. Or in my own personal case, with your artwork. I've been seeing it here and there lately and it brings a slight smug smile to my face XD.

Hey smugness and cockiness is allowed in small dosages... I think.

This was done several months ago it was my first official digital 'painting' and at the time I was exceptionaly pleased, proud and some other P word. However with our latest project in which I am looking at Ocean Mythology I attempted another painterly fish. The result this time is much more impressive.

This one I did the other night and as you may or may not see there are a few slight, nothing major improvements. XD. I just feel oddly happy or any other positive feelings. Let us just hope that it presses on!

.. Why can't it be dinner time I am far too hungry for my own good.

Nerves

Some People handle stress in different ways.

Some eat their worries away, some procrastinate with everything. Others fight, hurt themselves and whatnot. Basic and obvious principle is that everyone handles things in different ways. At the minute my nerves are shot and all over the place. Primarially because my younger brother has to get an operation today with about 2 days notice.

In saying that though he needs the procedure done, however as a 6 year old getting a risky procedure.. I can't help but worry. I'm an older insane sister afterall it's my job to worry. A full time low pay job with very few health benifits -3-.

The point of this little 'vent'  is mainly to distract me from my worries and scares until it's time for me to go to college where I know my delightful friends will further distract me and I shall hopefully get through the day.

-3-.

Rock, Paper, Scissors, Lizard, Spock!

I wish I had discovered the Big Bang Theory ages ago XD. The writers of that show are creative genius'.
Shelldon is the new love of my life. Or idol. Either way I will forever more play wii sports participating more as nintendo can only take us so far!.

Anyhow, 6 weeks to christmas. It doesnt feel like that. At all. I'm not a scrooge, not by any means but GAWD! I hate the fact that everywhere you go christmas songs are playing on the radio, In shopping centers tree's are up and santa's cousins Gerald and Danny are out taking orders. Then theres the decorations and christmas lights up on the town.

No.

No my friend, No my buddy.

It is November. That is a miserable enough month without the world shoving christmas down my throat. =_=.

Christmas, I do love it, but I dont love the commercial aspects of it. I miss being a child and christmas was about snowballing your brother within an inch of his life. Praying it would snow so hard that school would be canceled, being extra good and helpful just so you could ensure that playstation from Santa. Now.. well I suppose it's always had commerical parts but you seem to notice them more as an adult :/. Oh how I wish to be Peter Pan <3.

I still havnet a notion on what I want, nor have I started to buy gifts yet. (You need money for those sorts of things). I suppose I have another few weeks yet for that until the world caves in with the terror that is christmas shoppers who believe that there is going to be some sort of famine going on and must buy anything and everything to survive the winter zombie apocolypse... mmm Ice Zombies.. not a bad idea. XD

Mwahaha money money money money!

I need to stop watching Toy Story.

I had originaly thought that today I would be ranting and raving about the fact that when you trade in games, dvds, CD's etc you get a laughable amount of money for them.

However today when trading in my used boxsets, PC games, some dvd's etc. I got a decent amount of money and chatted for a full 10 minutes with the checkout guy. He was wearing a TMNT t-shirt and was LOLing at my ancient TMNT dvds. I dont think they get lots of them traded in XD.

anyhow my first dilema occured when I got my money and saw several sims 3 expansion packs. But no Sims 3 on it's own -3-. Ahh dilemmas in life.
