FANEXPO.

The Reborn Photoshoot felt so epic'win! I will be posting up pictures soon ASAP. I'm just letting my camera batteries charge up lol.
It was mega fun-ness! I felt a tad too shy on asking for certain pictures from people (I don't know why! Even though I could talk to them so casually more so now than before, but when I want to ask for a pic I get shy? SAM, YOU DON'T MAKE SENSE.)

Ugh, I suck at reports! But I'll just sum it up to the fact that to me, this year's FanExpo was all about the Reborn shoot
And... lame new 'anime' pick up lines 8D Alterations of how to say it is allowed!

(works only for the Sensei's or any other master)
"Sensei, let me train under you" <-- Happened upon seeing a very *o*-ful Kakashi with awesome hair (though not dyed the right colour... but. I have a thing for awesomely-styled hair! So...!)

Many other jokes were said, but best to keep from saying it-- to avoid adding on extra unnecessary ramblings of explaining it! XD
I regret not getting a Tutti-Fruity Crepe though ):
And that other hat I saw...! It was cute-- why oh why did I not buy it? WHY?!?! lol ):
Next time! I promise I'll get it! (Unless it's gonna be at Dot-Con [link] then... yeah lol November XD)

Okay! That's it for now

Okay!

I HOPE THAT WAS HELPFUL.

Now on to the things about my Gallery!
So... I cleaned out some of the stuff from my gallery. Omg, nearly half was taken out. And yet I still have so much crap left. I'm kinda doing it slowly.
-- I took out my photography cause I'm gonna put it to a new account ~arcaza so if you like the photos I take, then please expect future photography works from that account
-- I plan to just put sketches into something like a sketch-blog... and this time. I think I will definitely try to keep up with it. Lol (cause i keep forgetting i have a sketchblog)
-- I'll put up a link to it soon.
-- From now on, I'll try to post up uncraptastic stuff lol.
-- Making a new account is a bit annoying since I had already done that with this account sometime in 2005. I might only really make a definite new account when I know I feel like 'it's time' LOL.


Other than that... ciao, loves!
<3

PHOTOGRAPHY ART (still have yet to upload them though lol)

For those of you that don't know yet, the coordinators of Anime North are holding a Doujinka Festival. This 2008 is going to be its first year to launch. So hopefully it'll become quite the success

VHS (Vongola Hearts Society) is back together to possibly try to pull off creating an art&doujin book with our 'circle'. Therefore meaning that we are SO going to be at the Doujinka Festival with a table. We won't be selling only the book of course, our other (paper)merch is also available to be bought. So if there were others who were hoping to buy from us, even if we're not widely known like Kaze-Hime and co. we're there and ready to sell our bookmarks and etc.

Oh... lol I never did mention before that I am grouped with two friends from Seneca to form our little art-groupage-thinger.
lol

VONGOLA - me (a name off of the KHReborn series. I'm a freak for it)
HEARTS - *Corky-Lunn (from kingdom hearts)
SOCIETY - =charcoal-gray (from BLEACH)

KINDA OFF TOPIC: did you know that Vongola, in Italian, means CLAM?! I kinda LOL'd a LOT from that.

And so our very first doujin is called CLAM collections cause it sounded so adorably cute XD
If we pull this off with a good result, we might continue it with future _____ Collections involving our interests and such XD.


SO! Drop by our table and give a Hello
We'd love to meet you all and get to know you~

On another note:
I made another account. I was thinking that maybe I could put in my photography in there rather than flood this one up.

Or MAYBE. I can make an entirely new account... as a start over of sorts for the drawings that I do. And another account for the photography as well.
Lol.
<--- no idea!

It's so crap. Full of crap.
It also shows how much I'm trying to branch out to as many styles as I can.
I want to be able to be flexible in terms of being able to do styles lol (anime, cartoon, realistic, etc)

Also. It all sucks ):
Everything is only satisfactory to me now... they don't make me go "i liked this, smilegrinheheh"

Woe is I.
Maybe I will clean my gallery out soon?
I upload way too many things lol from doodles, to sketches, to coloured works to photography. Lol.

It makes my gallery feel so... "filled" that it's so annoying to go through so many pages... and through those pages are lik 90% crappy ):
I really wann improve but where is my inspiration?!

Buh. I want my motivatinspiration (<-- stupidly made up word) back.

College is nearing its end and boy, do I want it to come sooner-- yet at the same time... not.
I totally need more time to do the two 3D sculptures and the other two 3D location designs. Woe.

I need to update my Figure Drawing Portfolio folder as well, since I missed out on not having any of my work with me at the time to hand in.
Ugh. Theeeeeeen for this week, I sooo gotta finish up my Storyboard. I can do the remaining photoshop-ness within a day sorta (even with distractions) but alas... I'm still akjdshkdas.

Reminder... BUY WIRE TOMORROW (or wednesday). And definitely buy markers tomorrow lol. I've decided to sculpt a dancing woman, hopefully showing lots of life/movement and whatnot. But.... I might end up changing it who knows lol.

I'm actually working now... LOL.
Starbucks I'm a barista now, yussss.

Anime North... my confirmation email thing still hasn't arrived yet. Woe. lol
I hope it comes soon, so I can leave my mind at ease lol
Man, I was totally wondering if I should sell stuff for AN-- but looking at my works... LOL
I'm still far from being good enough to sell things. And I hardly draw fanart anyway... unless I wanted to-- I just can't seem to do it-- I end up wanting to draw random original characters and whatnot LOL.

Boo me. Looks like I'm just a buyer again lol 8D

Main Goal: Genshiken and Blade of the Immortal
2ndary Goal: Beauty Pop (and... others that I can't remember at the moment lol)

Event Goal: to actually go through with an event and not get chased away by the humungo line up.
Self Goal: . . . make Cosplay of Makie. Hopefully D:

Overall Goal in life at the moment: FINISH FSCKING COLLEGE. lol
