HOLY FISHING SHISHKABOBS!

I GOT A SUBSCRIBER.
And, not only that, my subscriber was THE brian WIlliam Green.
That's right, the brilliant photographer.
Excellent sound artist.
Of Shades of Waves fame.
Hot dogs and bean sauce, that is amazing.
I need to get back in front of the camera, because, quite frankly, I haven't talked to one in a while.
And, now that past videos have been brought back to my attention, I realize that I've been (basically) ignoring you guys.
And I am EXTREMELY sorry.
This week, there WILL be a new video up Wednesday, camera or not.
I'll figure something out.

There will be more videos in the future.
I hope you enjoy what's coming from me.

Bye.

Ooh, Look At Me, Bein' All Artsy-Fartsy (Mature, I Know)

Hey, guys.
So.
My room is pretty cool (in my opinion), but the walls have been blank for too long, so,
I have made things.

"I want to be someones Mitchell Davis. I just want to change someone's life
the way my life has been changed. I want to be the Mitchell Davis of one other
confused little teenager, some day. I want to give them that same inspiration, that
same spark to keep going. I just hope I can do that."

"Art is Perception"

"Now."

These pictures will soon be put up on my "Motivation Wall," and entire wall of my room soon to be devoted to pictures and/or phrases that I find motivational or inspiring.
I shall post more soon.
Love ya, cuties.

Bye.



(Just by the way, you can see the thing I recently made, called a sound conglomeration right here.)

I Still Can't Believe it.

Hey! I'm back! I have awoken from my slumber to blog ecstatically about the concert I went to last night.
 A company of actors known as Starkid Productions (casually referred to as Team Starkid) came to Philadelphia last night, and I had the opportunity to see them preform. The tour, called APOCALYPTOUR, involves the Starkids just going to cities and playing their songs, or so I thought.
Here's what really happened. (Taken from my online conversation with a close friend)

 "Well, the whole idea was that they [the Starkids] were archeologists, who found an ancient Mayan ruin telling of the apocalypse, and a group of people called the Dikrats (Starkid backwards) who, by reading the inscription aloud, would awaken the god of chaos and death. The god (played by Jim Povolo) is called Margaret, and plans to destroy the world. But, as it turns out, the Starkids still have one last chance at saving the planet! Margaret is not only the god of chaos and death, but also the god of musical theatre. 

Along the way to saving our world, they sacrifice Joey Richter by tearing out his heart, almost give up, and finally end up earning a new Starkid!

This whole idea is sprinkled lavishly with witty humor and fun songs, keeping the audience excited and loud."

Yep. It's true (especially the loud part), and I'm glad it had a storyline! The show was an amazing experience, and I'm still in shock that I actually went.  It was totally worth the money, the long drive, and the waiting.

And, believe me, there was a lot of waiting.

 The line was a massive beast that stretched a long way from the entrance to the TLA (Theatre of The Living Arts), filled with girls from ages 11-27, as well as a few guys. We took up the whole sidewalk!

The entrance is that little swirly thing, labeled "TLA", and the black line indicates the group of people that wound through a few streets. This line, about four people thick, was gigantic, and I (indicated by the red dot) was right near the middle. It was a bit boring, but I didn't mind. The girl in front of us was nice, and, believe me, the show was well worth the wait!

 We stood on a balcony, getting a really good view over and/or in between the heads of the people in front of us, who we later learned were actually one of the actors' family! All in all, the show was fantastic and, even though we didn't get in on the balloon smacking, confetti catching action, we were glad to be able to see! I actually still can't believe I actually went, and it wasn't just a video I watched online. That whole "They're real people, oh my god!" feeling is just beginning to wear off.

All in all, it was a fantastic experience, and I'm glad to have gone.

Hey Look, I Took Some Photographs.

Hey, why not start with a semi-disturbing one? I actually got hold of a red pen during science class. And I was really bored.

Are the spirits trying to contact me, or do I just need to clean off my computer screen? Maybe both....

Ouchies.

What do you think this is? It's actually not a super zoomed-in image of the above picture or  any other wound. I actually ate that for dinner a little while ago. It's lasagna. 

I is watching you....

Look, it's my cat again. Isn't he just a little angel?

That's our other cat, Isis. My family thinks she's so much nicer than Captain, but I'm not convinced. I'm pretty much positive she's planning to take over the known universe, and that's her plotting face.

Plotting face.

The Potato Slayer and a Cat (Because I have nothing better to post about.)

     I peeled some potatoes last night. Man, I peeled the heck out of those potatoes. You should've seen me. I was like The Potato Slayer.  

        Yeah, it was pretty awesome. Just to emphasize my sheer awesomeness, I'm going to draw it again.

Now I'm a Ninja.

And again

And now I'm a very scary person with a battle axe (Apparently potatoes can bleed, too.)

The first one is definitely the most realistic, but the rest were fun to draw. 

       I took some pictures the other day! That's right, real pictures, not drawings of stick figures on Illustrator. Here they are.

This guy kept staring at me.

Doesn't he have a nice smile?

That's my cat, Captain Clifford Crownunsheild, kissing a My Little Pony. They had a long and complicated relationship.

Such a captivating expression.

   It's usually hard to get a good picture of Captain Clifford, but he was being a good subject that day. Maybe he was in a good mood.

2012 (Hooray, the year of the apocalypse!)

            I'm back. With a post that actually includes stuff involving my life! Hooray! Yeah so...happy 2012. Apparently, the world's gonna end this year. Alrighty then.

LOOK, I DREW YOU A PICTURE! (Multiple, actually.)

Life is beautiful.

They Might Be Giants (This one actually took some time.)

Scary Bird Thing...

Wow, that looks painful. I must have been having mixed feelings about life...

She just woke up...

Look, it's a hand!

"I'm an eye."

              Yep, there you go. I had very much fun drawing those last night. With my mouse. No fancy computer-pen-things for me. :) Well, yeah. Happy Day After New Years!

Henry The Giant- Episode 2, The Lost Ones

I'm going to name all the episodes from now on.

It's All Part Of The Plan

            So, if you didn't know, I'm writing a comic. I just finished the first page. It's really not that good, but it's my first one, so I'd say it's alright. I'm probably going to keep the comic going, since it's a large part of my master plan to conquer the universe. So, yeah. I was going to make another page for the comics, but (since you can't make posts on each page) I'll just post on this, and make everything a lot harder for you. Especially since you will all be destroyed. Eventually.

The Squid and The Unicorn

The squid sat at his dining table, enjoying a healthy meal. The unicorn’s helpless screams did not make their way into the his head, as the squid had no ears. The squid could see the unicorn’s struggles against his guards, but he chose to focus his single eye on his food instead. The squid liked to eat unicorn tail-hair. It required much work, and the unicorn would screech helplessly, but the absent-minded squid believed it was worth it. Eventually, the squid would let the unicorn go. But for now he continued to chew on the silky fibers of the unicorn’s tail, which was quite an amazing feat, since the squid had no mouth to chew with, and no esophagus to swallow with.

            After everything was over, the unicorn would sit in an easy chair in a corner of the fuzzy room, thinking thoughts. Some of the thoughts were sad but many were not. Often he got a wicked headache and had to soothe the bunions on his feet with heated mentholated waters that filled the room with an odor reminiscent of holidays past. Even when he appeared to be doing nothing, even when a brain scan would have come up with nothing, he was, in fact, planning his revenge against the the evil squid, whose one brown eye haunted his days and nights. "I am going to get you, squid" was the most common sentence that passed through his mind.

            So the unicorn continued to plan, and the squid continued to chew. After a while, a loosely formulated plan made its way into the unicorn's mind, and he called to his magical robot waitress who he had named Hannah. "Hannah," he said. "I need some C₆H₁₂O₆ and a banana, stat." Hannah rolled her eyes and sighed. "Yeah, whatever." When Hannah returned with a vat of glucose and his banana, he carefully took them from her. The unicorn looked under the door of his fuzzy room and opened it, cautiously stepping out of his fluffy slave chamber.

The unicorn crept his way into the squid’s room, which was kept very cold so the squid’s pet intergalactic piranha, named Fred, didn’t spontaneously combust. Fred stared at the unicorn as he crept inside. Fred opened his left eye to look, then his right eye, he even opened the third eye he kept only for emergencies.  The unicorn made his way towards the squid, who was sleeping upside-down on what looked like a very large coat-hanger, when Fred opened his mouth, revealing thousands of tiny unicorn souls, wailing in despair. The unicorn was horrified, but decided to keep going. He placed the banana in his vat of glucose and watched as the banana melted into a toxic liquid, which explained why the banana was magical, since an average banana wouldn’t have melted. The unicorn put his mixture on the squid’s bedside table, with a note under it that said, “I made you a smoothie, enjoy!”  The unicorn began to walk away, when a sticky tentacle suddenly shot from Fred’s left eyetooth. The tentacle wrapped around the unicorn’s horn and yanked him into Fred’s waiting jaws, which had unhinged to reveal a dark tunnel. Fred closed his mouth, blocking out any light from the unicorn’s eternal prison.

The next day, the squid drank his “smoothie”, and was horrified as black spots sprung up all over his body. The squid died almost instantly, and his reign of terror ended. With no one to control it, the thermostat quickly turned up the temperature, ending the life of Fred and millions of tormented unicorns. The rest of the unicorns lived happily, and the thermostat never again had to worry about being cold.

You Can't Even Comprehend The Awesomeness Of This Post

             Hello, and welcome back to another post! (Now I'm going to post too often for anyone to follow.) So....How's it going? Today I played The Legend Of Zelda for about, oh, TWO HOURS.

Don't worry about the drool, I'm hyperbolizing.

So, after two hours I decided I should probably do something! So I stood up...

The only exercise I really got was from running upstairs

...and bolted upstairs to my room! (Wow, that was tiring.) I sat in my chair, turned on my computer, and did my basic everyday procedures (check email, charge ipod, etc.) Then I opened my blog page (and Illustrator) and decided "I'm gonna post again! Why not!" (of course I didn't think of "You have more important things to do", "Really? You just played Zelda for an hour!", or even "You don't even have anything to post about!") And that's where I am now.

             BUT, I have an idea! I will collaborate with all of my faithful readers (all 4 of you [maybe less]) to create an Awesome Short Story! So, what I need you (my faithful readers) to do, is put a character or sentence or paragraph or SOMETHING in the comments that will contribute to the story. The story can be serious or funny (although I imagine it will come out very strange), but it can't be TOO long. So please don't comment with a ten-page essay. Yup. Please try to contribute (I don't want to write the whole thing), and I'll be back soon with either a story, or another post like this!

Here is a squid.

"I'm just a squid."

The Female Ventures Into The World of Adobe Illustrator (Blogging In 9 Easy Steps)

           I recently opened up Illustrator on my computer, and decided to draw some pictures to explain to you humans/animals/aliens about my...  Blogging Procedure! entirely in third person! So, here we go.....

1. The Human begins to get the idea that she hasn't posted in a while and probably should.

2. The Human decides that this is probably a good idea.

3. The Human becomes extremely excited at the aspect of blogging.

4. The Human gets a little too excited (Okay, a lot too excited).

5. The Human quickly races up the stairs like a rabid (and over-excited) gymnast.

6. The Human sits down in front of her computer- now chanting psychotically under her breath- and realizes something...

7. ...She has no ideas.

8. The Human begins a pointless staring contest with her computer's frustratingly blank screen.

9. She eventually gets a sorry excuse for an idea, and types it with renewed enthusiasm!

     Well, that's pretty much the idea. Sometimes I do something different, but I usually just follow my routine procedure.  I works pretty well. :) 

Other Things I Enjoy Doing

 Just in case I've ben worrying you with all my talk of roleplaying games (by the way, only 79 more days until I get the Vindicator of They Class- but who's counting?), I would like to reassure you that I do other things with my life as well, such as...
1.Write-Yup. I like to write stuff. Writing stuff is very fun. I'm almost finished one of my writing things, then I'll just need to either a) proofread it, or b) hide it away in some folder on my computer. I'll probably end up doing the latter of the two, because I'm just that kind of person, and I'm not as proud of that one as I am of my other ones.
2. Make Videos-Okay, this isn't really something I do (necessarily). It's more something I would love to do, if I had video camera. I've got all the ideas, though. They're all up there in my skull, hiding away. I made a little slideshow type thing, with lyrics to a song, and just watching the words and the music match up gave me an extreme feeling of happiness. But that doesn't really count. I'll probably make another one anyway. Animation is a cool idea too (since I love to imagine my drawings moving or dancing around), but I probably won't be able to do that (it doesn't bother me as much as the video thing). Still, I'm going to find our camera, or get one for Christmas (hint, hint), so I can try to make some of my ideas happen.
3. Draw-I also enjoy drawing. I like drawing people, eyes, hands, and stick figures playing instruments or looking like real people (I'll try to scan you a picture of that sometime).
4. Read Other Blogs-I don't actually read too many other blogs, just these two.
Trapped By Monsters
and
Insanity
Trapped by Monsters is a joint blog of multiple UK young-adult writers. My favorite author, Sam Enthoven participates in the blog.
Insanity is my cousin's blog. Not much else to say than that.

Happiness In Its Purest Form

 So, the other day I discovered this:

That is a combination of my favorite band, and a game I used to play.
AKA-It's awesome.

Screenshots~

Awesome.
