Hey ya'all.
Just a quick note to all my employers and watchers.
Few weeks ago I got a jaw surgery, then, after taking all the painkillers I got a severe ulcer. So I've been feeling like garbage, on some really cruddy meds that make me feel worse than when I don't take em. But apparently I need them.

So just a heads up, I'm trying to work on commissions but I really can't say how productive I'll be. During the middle of the day I feel okay, but nights get so bad, not really sleeping much so I don't feel like doing anything when I wake up. Tired....blegh.
A huge sorry to all those waiting for their commissions to be finished up. I'll try to make it up to you all.

Other than that, I hope everyone enjoys the holidays. Really hoping I feel better for christmas! Dammit!

I gots a new computer! Its shiny...and black...and I named it Megatron. Yup.
Finally upgraded to Photoshop CS 3, I'm liking it so far. Everythings so much faster. I passed my older computer to my roommate :iconrikona: because her's died randomly. We wiped it, its working wayy better now. Had some problems finding the correct drivers but all is well.
Now we just need to get a new comp for my fiance' OIY. They all died at once, mine got a virus and it was just...not working. That and its 10 years old, no joke. I actually feel proud for keeping it around that long, most people replace theirs every few years.
And I learned of a great new thing. THE FUTURE.....its....A WIRELESS KEYBOARD! omg. I went through 4 in no time at all. I'd get up in a hurry *the keyboards on my lap* and it would go flying sideways but the cord would pull and then it would fling about. Yeah...not so good for its life.
Wireless...its nice. *hugs keyboard*
Windows 7 is actually pretty nifty! Cept for this little waterdrop effect that made my photoshop all butthurt, but thats fixed now.

OH MAI GOSH the new gears of war book is out! Who's read it? Is it fantastic?

So I was thinking of adding some kind of journal addition. Like...every journal I'll make some art themes or idea's that people can use. Just to see how different artists interpret ideas. I constantly hear artists asking others "what should I draw?" So I thought it might be fun. It's not a contest or anything, but just for kicks. If you got nothin to do just check my journal and I'll add new idea's for pictures. Or you all could suggest a picture idea. I might join along in between commissions :) I think conceptart.org has something like this...but oh well :D


:bulletyellow: THE UBER JOURNAL THEME :bulletyellow: (which will be at the top of my journals to come)

The theme is; Cybernetic owls. Huge glowing orb eyes, watching, creepy, exaggerated, scanning.

Feel free to do your own concept with this. Make sure to link to your pictures in this journal so other can see! :D
And have fun!

OMFG I HAS INTERNETS! Sweet...Also, commissions!

Sun Nov 8, 2009, 4:11 PM
WOooOoooooooooooooooooooooo I HAVE INTERNETS!
Yayyyyyeeeeeeiii. Just moved into my new place! My house sold so I moved to the city and bought a new place. Been a lot of renovations...oiy. I really love being in the city now, we live like...3 mins from EVERYTHING THAT IS AWESOME. I dunno about you guys but I freakin love Walmart. Oh Wally-boy <3 ah-huhuhu!

I can finally get active on my commissions again! Yayyeee.

:icondragonelfranger: Your commission is complete, I felt crappy about the long wait so I'm upgrading yours to a cell shaded work. :) A little thanks for being so patient and sweet. Thanks thanks thanks. I'll get that to you real soon, nearly done :D

Oh so guess what? I won an Ipod! Wheeeeeee. Entered this gum contest and won an ipod classic. Ya...I..uh...I'm probably the only one in the world that doesn't already own one. So its HUGE NEWS TO ME.

So who's looking forward to the Deadpool movie? I thought Ryan was an odd choice, but recently watched him in one of his movies. Deyaam...nice casting *cough* He's got that nervous jittery acting style, yet still comes off as collected and slick. And well...other PARTS that FIT just perfectly with the hotness that is deadpool. ;)
For those of you that don't know what deadpool is, go and DOWNLOAD THE NEWEST COMICS. Freakin hilarious.

Halloween was fun, how did you all spend it? Yes, I'm 22 and still trick or treat. My fiance' :iconknightsfaith: and my roommate :iconrikona: and I decided to cosplay a transforming house. We all went as parts of the house, rang the doorbell and quickly assembled before they answered. Then...there was a house...sitting at their doorstep lol.
Because of the move things were up in the air, we didnt have time to make costumes. Halloween swung around and I was feeling mighty sad about not being able to go.
So we started brain storming really quick costumes. Well...howabout a house!
We have over 9000 boxes from moving so it worked. Coated the boxes in colored fabric, added windows and doors. I even put siding stuff on the roof (since we had extra chunks from renovating our place) lol. I wish we had more time. It woulda been awesome to cover the whole house in siding instead of just the front of the roof.
So I was the roof, the boy toy was the house and the roomie went as the garage.
SOO FUN! The kids didn't always get what we were doing but all the adults laughed their candy-giving-butts off. We made off with a garbage bag worth of loot. WOOOOOOOO!

I need to dig out the xbox and play Halo ODST! Most of our stuff is still packed. I've been so excited about renovating that well...half of our stuff is laying around without a home and the other is in boxes. I really want to get this place fully renovated by spring and sell it. Its SO SO much better then my other place. Structurally its far more secure, the previous owners took pretty good care of it. They seemed to really like gold...and...yellow though. Our whole bathroom is YELLOW. PEE ROOM. Or baby poo, you pick. Yellow tub, toilet, sink, countertops and paint. Jeez! lol. It's gonna get replaced soon enough. Doing a neutral color scheme (better for resale) Deep neautral green base, sandy neautral beige trims, white accents and deep dark chocolate laminate hardwood flooring. We also have this mini stand up natural gas stove...its all asian looking and cute. Its deep red, so I'm adding touches of red to the place. Not with paint but with vases and in the abstract like artwork. Just to tie everything in. Trying to go for something sophisticated, earthy, natural and modern. Hand making some abstract shelving for the wall. I want the place to look well travelled, as in, foreign artwork (vases, ornaments, statues etc) Found this fantastic hand carved mask in the mall, its deep chocolate brown and black. Reminds me A LOT of Kakuzu's back masks lol. Big gritted teeth and crazy spikes on its head. Omg I love it.
Totally taking advantage of the renovation tax thingy. AWESOME idea right there. I'm not sure if its just british columbia or its all over Canada...but if you are around here you should totally look it up. I dont know too much about it but home depot was advertising it like mad. Which I guess they would! Great for their business.

Anyways, I'm probably boring a lot of you with this! Lets see....I live by a KAWASAKI DEALER omfg. Went in and got to sit on one of the new ninja 250's. Green, black and white. SO HOT. om nom nom.

FInd any super funny video's? I need laughs! Gimme your fave youtube vids...or some other site..I dunno. I wanna larf! Wheeeeee~~~~~
Catch ya alls later.

OH! And on a side note I wanna give out a FREAKIN HUGE thanks for the 100,000 page views. *points* you know who you are! Thank you Thank you THANKS YOUS! Thats pretty awesome. :D

:iconalacda: Alacri-t yo colored %75

Okaaayy, so...I need to work on updating my DA when its actually about something fun and positive.
Yeah, I dont have many of those random, strange journals that most have. Ya know, the ones that actually allow you all to get to know me better.

BUT INSTEAD, I MUST SAY...
we have crappy luck. No, really. About a month ago my fiance's laptop keeled over, I got a malware virus and well...it gave my computer AIDS. THEN Rikki's (:iconrikona:) mac suddenly wouldnt turn on.
Theeeeen our cat slipped into death row. She got sick, stopped eating and dropped into severe dehydation. Which in turn destroyed her liver. She has an eye infection and a nose infection. This all happened within like... a week. Oh and we have to be MOVED to a whole new town within 9 days. *poops* Ahhhh!
SO, I need money. Commission me. I'll even throw in some discounts.

Lets think, something good happy and random. The word diddle, what DO YOU think it means? No google, just guess.
I have a theory that the twilight guy (edward) is a modern mario. The sun is his power star, he gets sun on him (lights up and sparkles) then dashes through the woods at super speeds. Just picture all this with the power star music.
Yup, I jumped on the bandwagon and finally watched the show. Its tacky, corny and the jumping effects made me cry. But honestly it wasn't bad. Half way through I gotta admit I wanted to see what would happen next. The hunting part anyways. Nice imagery, its ';pretty'. Can't say the story made me giddy inside, or the actors. But I'd like to see #2, that native (wolf guy) gets rid of his mane and buffs up. Good reason to watch a movie if you ask me.
Here's a question, what happens if bella gets her period during family time with the vamps? Hmm? I'd pay to see that, throw in the native guy and Im set.

Also, you need to watch this. Its stupidly well done! [link] Muscle through the beginning, it gets better.

Anyways, my lovelies, I'm off to go draw. And...try to keep the computer all to myselfffffffffff. Right Rikki? *grin*

OMFG GHDYWEGDYG#G I SOLD MY HOUSE! YAYYYEEE

Fri Oct 2, 2009, 1:41 PM
OMFG GDHEGDUEYGDYWVVWUVSUWU@*YW@*&GW@G@ I SOLD MY HOOUUUUSEE.
So... I feel pretty proud right now. I'm 22, bought my first place outright, fixed it up (renovated from top to bottom) and sold it. Made a fat profit too. YAYYYEEEEE. There was a lot of people that didn't think I could do it, didn't think I could get this much for the place. But I did! Even with a shitty economy. *dances*
So now for the scary part...moving to a whole new city, having our new place moved. And then we start renovating again lol. So I need to be out of the house by the 20th, holy shittles. 0_0 My whole life here wrapped up in two weeks and a few days. This is gonna be nuts! I really wanna get my commissions finished before then too...so its like...a full fresh start. I've been working on them a bit, but its been insane around here. They WILL get done though, no worries.

So I almost got scammed by an internet fraud-butthole. I'm trying to sell my car and buy a truck, had it up on Kijiji. Some douchebag contacted me and said that he bought vehicles and shipped them overseas. Okay...sure...could happen. Then he told me he was gonna send a cheque, without even SEEING the car. K, thats not right. I received it a few days later, thing is it was $5000 over the asking price. Thats not quite right. So I looked it up, checked out the numbers. Found out the guys been scamming people all over kijiji for thousands of dollars. Asshat.
So I'm trying to gather some info on him. Everything he listed is fake. I have his IP, but he's hiding behind a proxy, anyone know how to get past a proxy? I'd like to get his info and take all of the stuff from him right to the police. Or find out where he lives and contact the police in his area. The only thing I know is that its toronto. -___-''
So ya, any info on bypassing proxies would be fantastic.

Well...I gotta head to work now. Catch you all later! Thanks for all the support in and out of DA <3
