Get back to where you once belonged
Mar. 12th, 2009 09:03 amI LOVE GETTING UP SUPER EARLY AND STUDYING. I've tried so hard and so many times to break myself of this habit because I know cramming is supposed to be bad for you and stuff, but.... Wow. I'm always super focused and able to get work that would normally take me two hours to do done in one. Plus there's no one online to distract me.
Except for the girls over at
mishaland, but that's another story for another day. Y'ALL ARE GONNA BE MY DOWNFALL, I SWEAR.
Today is SPN Day, but I don't have anything to show for it yet. I'll probably do puffs tonight while waiting for the episode; it's preempted here because of the friggin SEC Tournament. We've known it was coming for a long while, but it still doesn't make it any easier. Hopefully the CW will air the episode around midnight tonight, but otherwise I have about 3 backup plans on the internet, none of which I've ever used before. SHOULD BE INTERESTING, WISH US LUCK. At the very least, we'll have omelets and mountain dew. Nom nom nom.
Here, have a badass mashup I've been listening to all morning:

SO I'M TAKING THE DEFINITION OF SKETCH A LITTLE LIBERALLY HERE BUT WHATEVER.
woodstarling wanted Misha, and then she showed me this fabulous picture of his hair, and um... I made a field guide.
( How to identify the Common Field Misha )
I need a hobby or something.
ETA: ( Icons! )
If anyone can make the animated one in better quality, I WILL LOVE YOU FOREVER. <33333
littlepaperswan FIXED THE ANIMATED VERSION! PLEASE JOIN ME IN FANGIRLING HER FOREVER! <3

So I'm going to go ahead and blame
emotikka for linking Ariel and Uriel in my head for the rest of forever, so much so that
tahu and I got into a discussion about who the other Disney Princesses would correlate to.

New Watchmen Trailer
I have no more fears about this movie.
For those of you interested, I went out and downloaded the comic. It's a huge file... but read it if you can. It's fairly short.

I've been up since 5AM, am running only on Mountain Dew and string cheese, and am ROCKING at studying so hard that I'm taking a break to watch the Daily Show and update my LJ. GO ME! \o/
*does a dance*
Reason I'm updating? ( I read the spoiler for myself rather than just taking second-hand information from Elizabeth, so here's another spoiler cut. )
So, you know. That's exciting. And distracting, as I'm supposed to be taking a test today. XD Omg I shouldn't have drank that whole Mountain Dew. I'm never going to calm down, and now I'm going to be sleep-walking my way through art class and I'm supposed to operate heavy machinery and OH LAWDY DEAR GRACIOUS ME BACK TO STUDYING.
*flails*

Jensen's Epicness Demands Icons.
Oct. 25th, 2008 02:09 amWell, it does.
I just showed the clip to my brother to prove that I'm not the only person who knows all the words to Eye of the Tiger and that it's not sad, it's a gift, etc. Then I found caps.
( Then I made icons. )
Feel free to use as bases and do with them whatever you want so long as you give me credit.
And now, I'm off to sleep. In the morning, I will continue my epic saga of dancing!Castiel icons. OH, YES. *evil steepled fingers*

My internal clock is screwed.
Oct. 14th, 2008 06:53 amAaaaaand your clip of the day. XD
I went to bed at 8:30PM last night cause I was so tired, and I woke up at 6AM this morning without an alarm. My schedule is completely screwed to hell... Ah well, I'm writing my paper tonight, studying for my test tomorrow morning/afternoon (cramming is fun, kids! ;D), and finishing the paper tomorrow night amidst Ned and pie and concentrated happiness.
Sometimes I wish Pushing Daisies was on after Supernatural... it's like a little hour of happy, and I think I need that after all the manpain. When stuff happens like
tahu watching Heart of all things because she misses the boys' carefree days where they had no angst, well.... Wow.
Kripke, seriously. What did they ever do to you? Kick your puppy? *pines for the brothers Winchester*
*goes back to eating popcorn and drinking orange juice and watching the Colbert Report, as one is often wont to do before normal operating hours of the day*

Too tired to sleep
Aug. 11th, 2008 02:24 amI hate myself. I have to work tomorrow morning, then watch magical movies all day and make pie, and then get all excited for birthdayly activities with
randomfangirl29, and I CANNOT SLEEP. At all. Blegh.
I was sick all day Saturday, but I'm perfectly fine now. Who knows. I've kind of been sick off and on since I got back from Mexico, but this definitely has nothing to do with that.
( Nope, this probably has everything to do with the awesomeness that is Mass Effect. )
But in the end, the only complaint I'm going to end up having about this game is that it isn't KotOR 3. The graphics are so amazing, and they've got the conversation system down to a science. So why does KotOR 3 have to be an MMO?! I demand answers, Bioware. *sigh*
In other news,
tahu introduced me to the idea of learning Carry On Wayward Son on my ukulele. This is totally going to happen. I simply can't decide between slow/painfully-angsty or fast/super-peppy. Or I could play it like Kansas, but where's the fun in that. :P

I must post this first.
1) The Dark Knight is called that for a reason. My heart started racing at the beginning of this movie, and it did not stop. Everything I ever hoped for and dreamed of was in this movie. I simply want to know when I can see it again. (We were one of only two groups dressed up, too. WTF, PEOPLE IN MY FAIRLY SMALL TOWN. I DEMAND MORE FROM YOU.)
2) OMG WATCHMEN TRAILER = PERFECTION!!!!
3) OMG SPN SPOILARRSSSS!!! That are mildly unverified because I got them second hand and couldn't be bothered to look them up myself. But <3. <333333333333333
4) We made it to IHOP. Pancakes are my new true love.
5) It's official, I sound like James Hetfield.

Smells like insomnia
Jun. 24th, 2008 12:41 amIt begins again; I am unable to sleep at night because there is just so much going on.
Today was especially eventful, but we'll get to that later.
First, I gotta take the time to say we're going on vacation from Friday through next Monday, so I won't be online at all this weekend. Take care of the internets for me while I'm gone. ;)
Alright, so... I was really spoilerphobic during the finale. That tactic failed miserably, so... I think I'm taking things the exact opposite direction. This means I've read the sides, something I've never done for anything before (except Dollhouse, but that's different. Totally, totally different.).
Anyways, I'm really delving into this spoiler thing for the first episode because October is way too far away. I'm thinking about making a filter, so if you'd like to be put on a spoiler-tastic filter, let me know. :)
( Obviously, spoilers follow. Great, big, honkin' ones. )
So, yeah. Let me know about that filter, and any other spoilers you might find. I'll be up all night!

Welcome to the land of my delusions.
May. 11th, 2008 12:36 amI made icons tonight because I am 1) delusional and 2) bored. Also because I've needed one of Ruby riding her demon!unicorn. It's the most accurate depiction of my madness. %D
I also made a few icons because I'm delusional about Dean's potential deal-coming-due-ness. I know nothing. I just want to campaign for him to live. Because of his pretty. Even though there's less than a week til the episode airs.
( WHATEVER. MY DELUSIONS OF CRAZY, LET ME SHOW YOU THEM. :D )
Also, I'm going to take a few requests for Powerpuff-style SPN icons/pictures/headers/whatever. I reserve the right to choose which ones--if I even get any requests--that I do, but... I'm bored and suffering from art block, and little doodles like that will help me get through. Anyone can ask, and the more random/awesome it is, the more likely I am to do it. ;)

Maybe this class isn't so bad...
Apr. 22nd, 2008 11:48 pmOkay, so my art class is the worst art class I've ever had. That doesn't mean I wasn't able to get some serious practice in whilst putting up with the nonsense. It was also much more structured than my Independent Study class in high school. So that's nice. I just hope next semester's 3D class is ok... ah well.
Anyway, my sketchbook is in my room as I'm supposed to be working on a self-portrait for Thursday, so I took some crappy webcam pics to share with the world!
So here's the fruits of the past month (we've finally started drawing things other than lines *repeated headdesk*), which I'm sort of proud of. :)
( Feet & Trees )
This concludes our nerdery for this evening. Thank you, and Good Night.

Mmmmm... Delicious Man-Pain.
Apr. 16th, 2008 12:43 amEver wanted to see the angst and man-pain from Season Three consolidated into a tiny box?

:) I'm hoping it comes out around my birthday so I can weasel my mom into getting them for me. Or, who knows? I might have a jobthough it's not looking likely!
So... remember when I said I was going into these last four episodes totally and completely spoiler-free? Turns out that was a lie, and I'm a terrible person, and none of you should ever believe what I say. I stand by my decision to not be spoiled for 15 or 16, though. All I know are the titles, and one piece of casting info for 15, and I'd like to keep it that way. Though now it's looking like maybe I should've extended that to 14, but... eh, I can only keep myself occupied with 13 for so long. Even though it is shiny. And the boys + profanity is my new favorite thing. Who knew? :D
*hopes to make all sorts of dirty icons after 3x13*
Ugggggh. Why can't I ever get to sleep at night? I know I should be getting tired, I'm just not. It's like I physically cannot sleep.
Oh, crap. Insomnia, is that you?
*headdesk*
*goes back to lurking on Fandom Wank because there are epic lulz there that do not sleep and also are in pie chart form*

Super Happy Fun Times
Apr. 12th, 2008 01:33 pmI'm so sleep deprived... I think I've got about a combined total of 10 hours of sleep since Thursday. It's not going to be a pretty sight if I don't take a nap today.... heh...
Dayna's friend is awesome. And we have good times. I had the best night of pretty much ever with them last night at PF Chang's (our waiter was awesome and gave us free food and dessert WHOO), and we re-dyed my hair so it's super bright again. I may be able to get four uses out of my bottle of hair dye. :D For the epic win! \o/
I'm sitting at home right now, and it occurred to me that I should make an SPN vid for no reason to a Regina Spektor song. No, I have no idea what's wrong with me. So I'm downloading 3x10 again because it has a million clips I need and the one I have won't convert to a form readable by Premiere and ARRRRGH. Why do these things take so long? x(
So I'm uploading all my old Evanescence music along with my Regina Spektor music just so I can have a blast from the past.... heh... Wow I sort of hate my 13-year-old self sometimes, but... maybe it's not so bad?Don't worry, I totally know that it is.
I'm so incredibly tired... O.O So I guess I'm going to take a nap since Premiere won't open anyway. *le sigh*

I went with my dad to pick my mom and brother up from the airport today, so I was in for about two hours in the car. On the way back, I did some singing with my brother, but on the way there I did some doodling.
( And I think I... invented a sort of style for myself? )
So that was my day of unproductiveness. Tomorrow I will have to write my Machiavelli paper, but I've done harder things in less time, so bring it on. >:)

I changed my layout today, but I'm not sure if I like it. Oh, and I got two tests back with A's on them. I'm back, baby! *does her little victory dance*

1) We finished the 7th season of Buffy this past week, and I absolutely loved it. I think the second season will always be my favorite, and the sixth my least favorite. In conclusion, hoo-boy Angel was hot in the first season, yay Oz, yay pirate!Xander, yay Anya, yay Andrew, and whoo Joss Whedon. :) And boo Nathan Fillion. Seriously, that accent was TERRIBLE.
So... the roommate and I are looking for something else to watch in the one month (ONE MONTH! OMG.) we have left at school. We'll probably watch Firefly, but if you saw the way we tore through seven seasons of Buffy in essentially two months, you'd understand why we need recs. :) I don't think we're likely to watch Angel just because... while we're both hopeless Angel fangirls (and occasionally I love Spike. What? It happens!) that show plumbs depths of terrible I don't think we're ready for.
2) Fish!Dean died. :( So fish!Sam is lonely, but fish!Bobby won't let him sell his soul to bring Dean back, so now I don't think they're speaking, and there's generally a lot of depression. All I'm saying is fish!Trickster better be watching himself. If our fish are predictive for the show, well... let's just say I hope they aren't. We're thinking of getting another goldfish and naming him Angel. Re: Hopeless fangirls.
3 Still Alive = the most addictive thing EVER on Rock Band. I got my brother's headset and sang and played guitar at the same time and OMG MORE FUN THAN ANYONE SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO HAVE. I seriously need to play that game.
4) I'm majoring in English, at least for the time being. I finally found the school's video production/digital art courses; they were all hidden in the Art Studio classes... which, whoo, random. Only problem is I have to take a class in 3D art next semester before I'm allowed to take the Photoshop class, and that one before I can take the Graphic Design/Web Design/Video Production classes. I wouldn't mind taking the classes, but there's a part of me that thinks I could just learn all this on the internet. I don't know. I'm considering a minor in something to that effect.
I decided to just go with the English thing because I've always loved writing, just... I've never actually put anything I've written on the internets. I may dabble in fanfic just to see if I like that sort of thing. I don't know if I want to be a writer or an editor, though. Whatever. I'm just going to go for this and see what happens. The classes look really fun and awesome, and that's what I was waiting for. I want to look forward to waking up every morning. Unfortunately, three of my classes this semester aren't going to count for anything anymore, but... I really enjoyed Political Science, and may take another class in that discipline just cause. And I learned what I most certainly didn't want to do, which was quite helpful. :)
5) I finally got my SPN videos put into a format I can edit in Premiere! ENDLESS RUBY-CENTRIC VIDEOS, HERE I COME! :D

Art halps, plz?
Apr. 1st, 2008 12:34 amI need your thoughts on why this doesn't look like Jared Padalecki, but instead a mutant-zombie creature with squinty eyes.
( For serious, yo )
Should I scrap it, or can it be saved? I've been staring at it for about a half hour now tweaking the eyes and they're just... so wonky. Plus the jaw needs serious work. Argh.
All thoughts are muchly appreciated!
