Madness

"Madness," May 2010, sharpie

I'm sorry I haven't made a post in forever! And I'm sorry that I keep saying that at the start of every post I've ever made in the past month. Just two more days and exams are over and hopefully I will be back to normal. Until then, enjoy this Sharpie mad-sterpiece (bwahaha, I am so clever) I have created as a result of I have no idea what, actually. Perhaps craziness, perhaps madness, perhaps SPAAAARTA? Saying that makes me want to kick some person into an endless black hole thing in the center of the earth, boo-yeah.

You know what confuses me? Why they have those speaker things people can click on to listen to the words on captchas. If you were blind, how would you know to click the speaker? How could you see it? Maybe I'm missing something here. Ah, well. Some things in life will forever remain a mystery to me, such as how bugs get stuck in lights that are clearly sealed off very well, or why opening something by the "tear here" tab is impossible and one will have to resort to using scissors or teeth, hence there being no point to this innovative thing.

Grapes and Wine

My Grampa (who is married to my Gramma Nami who so nicely makes skirts for me!) sent me a dress for getting into the Mu Alpha Theta, Spanish, Art, and National Honor Societies (haha not trying to brag). Unfortunately, it did not fit! It was rather loose in the boobula region, a rare and precious region many but myself possess. So we had to take the dress back and in return I got this skirt and shirt! Which together = a dress! Hooray! I tried on so many dresses but either the size 6's were too big or the size 4's too small, so in the end I went with this. Exams start at the end of next week! I'm so excited, I think. Right? Exams are fun, yeah?LAnd deliciously comparable to ice cream? Exactly. Just eat the exams up and wait for the next bowel movement. Exams complete. Oh yes.

Title inspired by this incredibly clever eight second video:

Binary Coding

I have recently discovered that Urban Outfitters has really amazing sales. I got these shoes for just ten dollars! I've been looking for white flats and walah, one random day I score these pretty perforated ones for way cheap! I saw some neat shirts there I need to go back and look at, too. One made me look like a Renaissance peasant, which was awesome. Oh, that store is wonderful, but some things just aren't worth $70.00 no matter how cute they are. I just hope some of those things go on sale, buwahahaha. Then I can put them in my magical Mary Poppins bag and scuttle away like a bandito crab, all while smirking devilishly (can crabs smirk?).

Also, muchos thankos to the beautiful beautiful lady at Toast with Charmalade for this wondrous thing!

Quirk: Drawing on people's paper, arms, hands, or faces (when they're asleep ahahaha).
Pet peeve: When people chew gum really obnoxiously loud. QUIT IT AUGHH.
Favorite song: Stranger in Moscow by MICHAEL JACKSON who is king forever and ever. And ever. Yes.
Trend: Bold color-block outfits.
Murder: Uggs, what the heck, they're called Uggs because they're UGLY. People, how much more clearly can that name be made out? That's like calling a brand "Puu-puu" and you not realizing what it's saying. Friends, they mock you!
Nail color: I like pretty light blue, like Cinderella, oooh la la.

So, I've found that it is much more pleasing to drive to school in the morning if certain things are happening; your favorite music is on, the traffic is light, your car rides smoother than it usually seems to, you can roll your windows down and let the wind run through your lovely, streaming, Rapunzel-esque hair, or if there is FOG EVERYWHERE oh my goodness. Fog is so cool, like, I'm not even kidding. I wish I could just put it in a jar and keep it there and sit it in my room and stare at it. Along with a firefly and a jellyfish. When I grow up, there's gonna be jellyfish and lobsters and fireflies in my house everywhere. When I get married (hahaha good joke right thar) there will be fat birds thrown instead of rose petals and fireflies floating prettily around me in a snowy forest, oh yes.


Now, this photo may seem a bit random. You may ask yourself, is it a tree exploding? Is it about to be transported to a parallel universe via time warp? Or maybe it's the secret location of platform nine and three-quarters, and this tree was beckoning me to come forth to discover it and harness its power as my own. But alas, it was merely the sun shining through the fog and a tree. But really, I like to think it would have gone to Hogwarts. Anyway, it's things like this that make my day. That and when the lunchroom has baked lays chips, oh so delicious.

What simple things make your day start off most loverly?

Bumblebee, Bumblebee, Please Come Back

I'm sorry for no posts in over a week! My computer decided to commit suicide via overheating his motherboard. Thankfully my brother is a mad computer genius and figured that out! Mr. Compy should be back up and running in a couple of weeks (or so I hope), but for now, I shall withdraw the power from my mommy's computer and use it to my own will, ahahahaa. Please excuse my evil faces in these pictures, I was trying hard not to be eaten by this evil, buzzing wasp who kept darting at me! Apparently when I concentrate really hard I look like an evil wizard casting an evil spell on someone.. all while lookin' evil. Anyway, I do hope everyone is enjoying their lovely day. Or not so lovely day. It's icky and raining here and there was some nasty tornado-esque weather. Tornadoes are scary and frightening things, especially at night when the wind howls through the doors and makes creepy ghosts noises and your room is adjacent to the creepy howling noises and you can't sleep. Yucky!

Finding a Happy Place

"Sunbathing," April 2010, acrylic.

After about three weeks of working on this thing, I have finally completed it! I have an excuse for my slowness.. this is only the second painting I've done and it's the biggest one I've done. It measures somewhere around 30 inches tall by 18 inches wide or so (don't know the exact dimensions right now since it's at school). But yay, I'm just glad it's done! Now, maybe I can work faster and post some other artsies! I also think this painting sort of made me realize what kind of concentration I'll be focusing on in AP Studio Art for my senior yea next year: finding happiness in tough situations. For example, you can be sitting on a sun burning your butt off and not being able to breathe but still be happy as a dandy little clam. Of course that's possible, of course. Right? Right. Yeah. Glad we understand one another. High five right now. Good, nice. Fine work, lovely work, yes.

(Psssst. I know the flute is backwards. This is sad, seeing as how I played the flute in 6th grade band.. but hey, we can pretend it's a special left handed flute or something. She's sitting on a sun for gosh sakes!)
