Photographical ... Stuff >__>

Tue Dec 29, 2009, 4:54 PM
  • Mood: Eager
  • Listening to: Breathe- Angels and Airwaves
  • Reading: Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass
  • Playing: ipod
  • Drinking: sprite
As some may or may not have seen, I've started my first two photo deviations.:camera: I've learned how to work my dad's OLD camera (when I say OLD, I mean back in 2005 with my brother's graduation photos *good times*). I noticed the shutter speed is 1/8 (so it says here on dA and on my pc) and I'm not sure what's a GOOD shutter speed and what's a HORRIBLE one.:shrug: But I'm not trying to go all pro n stuff. I just like taking pics. :camera:

Another heads up...

:bulletorange: I'm making a daily countdown to New Year's Day, when I finally make up my mind (to those who've been paying attention, you'll know). IDK if I'll do a countdown on New Year's Eve... suggestions?

:bulletblue: I've been reading a comic series called "FLIGHT." :floating: It's really good, the stories inside are from different artists, so it keeps me interested. Unfortunately, I've looked on here and haven't found much fanart of it... it's kinda sad, so I've decided to contribute a little bit :D


Though I go back to school next Monday (:cries:) I'm gonna find a way to get this stuff done :typerhappy:

Wish me luck!

Memories

Tue Dec 22, 2009, 11:24 PM
  • Mood: Emotional
  • Listening to: 2.99C Blues- Regina Spektor
  • Reading: Flight (comic) Volume Three
  • Watching: Roseanne...
  • Playing: itunes
I guess now everyone is shaking like hell. I don't know what to do. I'm clueless. Inexperienced. Everything.

Fuck the creators of the movies that apply to my heart. You know when we see things like that, we don't know what to say... I believe we decide to disregard them. Being an obnoxious fire whose ears are burnt shut.

So um...

I've been moody. Nothing woman-related. :sarcasm: I don't like this at all. The stupid pretending that we do- "So what are you doing for the holiday?" "Oh, nothing. I'll just stay home like I usually do. Play some Wii. Hopefully, those kids that came over on Thanksgiving, oh God!" I don't want to say that I wish I never had to talk to him for my newspaper story back in February. Or I wish I never met him just one year ago at the lunch table. Wow, once I was so upset, and I don't know if he was sitting next to me, but I was crying and throwing fits. Does he remember that?

I even thought. I don't know. Am I supposed to avoid him like an asshole. He'll never let me live if I do that. I don't even know how to avoid.

..................................................................................................................


On the brighter side of life (2.7%)... I'll post some links to them so you can see them if you want.

I've worked on a lot of things lately that I'm very proud of.

:bulletgreen: I've made MANY animations already

[link] (my friend Buna's avatar)
[link] (Penny Panty In the Sky, inspired by Owl City's Cave In

:bulletpurple: And I've improved in my art over the months and years I've been working with GIMP (the free version of Photoshop, I guess)
[link] (Yulia Volkova from t.A.T.u.)
[link] (my first YAOI drawn in GIMP)

Things like these achievements make going on and moving on so much more worth it. I like to look back on the good things that have happened. Unfortunately, I can't ignore all of the bad things, but...you learn from it:shrug:.


I appreciate those of you who take the time to read/view my work, as I've tried with many of the people I've watched (that goes for you too :iconsongbird-jo:) Please still feel free to comment, advise me, whatever you do best. Sure it's odd for me to have this out in the open.... but right now, I can't really care about it.

First of the "Kak Ya Delat'" Collections

Fri Nov 6, 2009, 8:54 AM
  • Mood: Lazy
  • Listening to: Ingrid Michaelson- The Chain
  • Eating: Cheerios
  • Drinking: fruit punch koolaid
So I've just finished the first of the How I Am Doing Collections. I feel really proud of myself, seeing how the colors are so much more different than what I used to use.
:star::star::star::star::star::star::star::star::star:
:bulletred: I never used the color scheme thing in GIMP. That's not what it's called.... but it's where you click the color and one of the last color bars is faded from the color you clicked to a completely different color. It was marvelous. I thought that's how I should shade now, instead of: light brown...brown...dark brown...very dark brown.
:star::star::star::star::star::star::star::star::star:
So anyway, for those who have not seen it...

[link] (I'm Still Holding Your Scarf)

This includes an art piece and a poem. Please do critique/give opinions/comment. I appreciate everyone's ideas about my work (especially since I hasn't a subscription):no:

I'll be posting more this weekend. It's a THREE DAY WEEKEND!! I'm glad I have today and the weekend off!!! :boogie:


Enjoy your days as autumn goes by quicker than the wind.

*****Fishing for the Right Words*****

Just a few days ago, I was thinking how much of a lovesick idiot I am. No one really knows about that, so I kind of want to write about it. I'm calling the it the "как я делать\" or the "How I am Doing" Collections. It will be mostly written, but a few drawings scattered about. I'm trying to improve my writing skills.... and because I can't get a subscribtion, please do critique. I would very much appreciate it, you guys.

The Collections won't start until a little later, but I will be writing daily. It also won't be any of that cheesy stuff, with the exception of "being unable to get over someone."

Also, this isn't just to help me improve my writing, but it's an update to show "how I am" currently, :pissed: or even :giggle:. I would totally accept your ideas or your take on situations like this because junior year in high school already sucks because I'm feeling really distant from some of my friends.

Anyway, do wish me luck in my writing. :)
