Wow, three months later and another entry! I'm so awesome.

It really seems as if every possible trace of drawing talent I've had and built up over the past few years has left me. Left me or abandoned me, or gone into hiding. I have not drawn anything more than utter crap since my last entry. Okay, stratch that, I've drawn about 3 'okay' pictures. Three. That's like a good picture a month. SO not good. My mad ninja skillz come flying back when I need them most, like in art or for the concept pictures of characters in my English work, but for the time being they've been content to sleep somewhere deep inside. 

Every picture I've drawn for the sake of drawing has come out bleh. It hurts. A lot. Maybe I'm just trying to hard; for my English and art pictures I just did them without thinking, and they've been my best work in ages.

STUPID NINJA ART SKILLZ! COME BACK! I STILL LOVE YOU!

I'm sad. ;_;

What else has been going on? Hmm. I failed maths last term. Yeah, ouch. Sucks for me. First D ever...that stung a bit. It's nearing Christmas and my 16th birthday. Seems like only yesterday I was 11, but that was almost 5 years ago.

My dog had puppies the other day. Kept one. Family's trying to decide on a name, but I don't care. I call it woofwoof.

English speech coming up Monday; they want to FILM me, and put me on the INTERNET. ^_^' Ugh, yeah. Sucks for me AGAIN. Might need a mad ha><0rz to take down a certain website in the near future, neh heh heh.

'I keep trying to find my way, all I know is I'm lost without you'

Delta Goodrem rocks. Seriously. Look her up, and the song 'Lost Without You'. Yeah it's pop, but it's catchy pop but who gives a damn, right? Oh, and Hikaru Utada. Hikki's always good. Always.

Thinking about getting my scrawny ass to take up weights again.

And I SO need a scanner. I'm sick of being thought of as a punk kid with no artistic talent 'cuz I can't prove anything. I'll show you all. I'll show the lot of you I deserve to be in Elftown.

Watch for it. It's gonna rock your world.

Boredom, how I love you.

Very tired. Oh look, it's 11pm. Last time I checked it was eight. Time flies. So, what'd I do today?

Well... I drew. A little. Very cool piece I done today, a dark reaver dude with a black wing and a rather intimidating scythe (that's probably spelt wrong), smelling a black rose. (Sounds Gothy. Stick with me.) What made this cool was the fact that I was inspired to do it about 6 months ago, but my skills weren't good enough to come up with a good enough result. Now the sketch I have in front of me is exactly how I pictured it in my mind (well...not exactly, as I haven't given the guy clothes yet). Best feeling in the world. My anatomy has come miles in the last two days.

Done some concept sketches for the guy's face... One kicks ass, but I can't get it looking right/the same as a 3/4 view (it's currently a front view picture). Ah well. I'll keep at it.

Hopefully I'll have broadband this time tomorrow. Wish me luck, yeah?

HALLO.

Well, yesterday I hit the Grand Plaza in search of drawing things. Picked up a sketchbook, a black ink pen thingy, a pencil a rubber and two packs of colour pencils (Crayolas and Faber-Castells; you can't find Prisma here in Australia). All up I think I spent over $50 (which is around $25 US). Sobering experience, spending that much money.

Ah well. What good's money if you don't spend it on things you want? *shrug* But I don't think I'm buying anything else drawing-related until sometime next year.

And I'm gonna make a webpage. Heheh.
