RIKUO FINALLY HAS A PROPER REFERENCE. xD

YES. x'D It only took me four years to get around to making it, but I did it, ahaha! :D I'm not even sure how long I spent on it in the end, honestly! :o It was a really long time, though. Definitely more than a few hours. xD It was worth …

I'M ALMOST FINISHED RIKUO'S REFERENCE. ;U;

YES. ;U; FINALLLYYYYYY. I have the version I'll be turning in as part of my portfolio almost completely finished, and I'll have to change some of the writing for the version I'll be using online, but otherwise it's pretty close to done! :o…

I got two things done for my portfolio today! :D

Yeah! ^.^ I finished two of the life drawings I have to do, I started the sketches yesterday and finished the drawings today. :o I spent some time on the street scene I have to do, too! So that's good. uvu I'm a little over halfway done my…

I HATE GETTING UP AS EARLY AS I HAVE TO FOR SCHOOL HERE. ;U;

UGGGGHHHHH. ;U; I have to get up at six thirty when I'm here at Dad's, and it suuuuucks. xD I've been tired all day, honestly, but more than usual? :o And I kinda really think I'm sort of running myself into the ground with everything I ha…

I think I'm about halfway done my portfolio now! :D

Yeah! :D Just between what I do have done and what I have started, I think I have about half of everything I need finished! :o I started the other perspective drawing today, and I saved some pictures and stuff to use as references for the …

I WAS IN A FIRE TRUCK IN A PARADE TODAY AND I GOT TO CONTROL THE SIRENS. xD

YESSSSS. :D I've been around fire trucks and stuff literally my whole life, and I've been in parades with Dad and my grandfather a whoooole bunch of times, but today was the first time I've been allowed to control the sirens, and just yess…

I'm a little over a third of the way done my portfolio! ;u;

Yeah! So I still have a bunch to do, but I'm getting there! :o I have a few things started, too, so once I get those finished up that'll lessen the amount of what I have to do, too. uvu I got one of the perspective drawings I needed to do …

I started making Rikuo's reference digital today! :D

Yeah! ^.^ I'm going to make a version of it without her headband (or at least the details on it) to turn in as part of my portfolio, too. :o I have most of the lineart done on the big fullbody, but I still have to clean it and line the oth…

I APPLIED TO A COLLEGE TODAY AND THAT'S SO WEIRD TO THINK ABOUT. ;U;

AAAAAHH. ;U; I mean, I still have to finish the rest of my portfolio and turn that in before I'm considered or anything, but I did the actual application part today and sent that in, and just aaah. xD I turn eighteen in less than two month…

I've been hanging out with Nick since like almost one forty five this afternoon. xD

Yesss. xD It's just after eleven now, aha. He came over to my place to meet my kittens and stuff, and we ended up talking about a whole lot of different things, which was nice! :D He reeeally tired out Stella and Solar by playing with them…

Drawings hands is hard, but drawing realistic hands is harder. xD

I'm not great at drawing realistically to begin with, ehhhhhh. xD But I had to do three drawings of my hand for my portfolio, and I'm actually pretty happy with how they came out, so that's something at least! :D I still have a bunch more …

I got asked to work tonight, but I didn't have a drive there so I couldn't. ;u;

Yeah. ;u; Mum and Dad were both still working, so I didn't have a drive there, and my uniform was at Mum's anyway. It was after four when I got called, though, so it makes me wonder if whoever was supposed to work didn't show up or somethi…

I'm making some magnets, but I didn't really think it through. xD

Yeaaaahhhh. x'D I've been cutting all the paper for them (and my English homework, too, since I had to print stuff off to customize a duotang) and the magnet sheet on my bed, whoooops. Ah well though, I'll clean it up before I go to bed! .…

All I can hear is Stella and Solar running around. xD

Yeppp. xD They're running up and down the hall and in the living room, they're probably wrestling or something, ahaha. I spent most of today drawing again! :o And I worked tonight, too. Tonight was probably my last shift for a while though…

I got another piece of art for my portfolio mostly done today! :D

Yeah! ^.^ I got the storyboard I had to do almost finished, I just have to finish lining the last panel and then I'm done. :3 I spent another couple of hours on the drawing I've been working on for the past couple of days today, too! :o I …

I'm gonna have to do so much drawing this weekend. ;u;

Yesss. ;u; Not that that's really a bad thing or anything, but I'm gonna have to try to get a few things done for my portfolio if I wanna get it done before October. ;o; I have a couple things started, and one of those things is almost fin…

I'm learning little pieces of a couple different songs on piano right now! xD

Yeah! xD Even though it's getting late, whoops. I'm just looking at a couple different parts I really like and stuff, I'll probably try to figure out the rest of the songs eventually but for now I'm just sticking to little pieces. :o I don…

It sure has been a day. ;u;

... Yeah. Dad got asked if I could work tonight last night at like ten thirty, so I didn't find out until ten to seven this morning, and turns out the person I thought I was working the shift for didn't know I'd been asked? But it sounds l…

I finally drew a proper reference for Rikuo tonight! xD

Yeah! xD Or at least sketched it out, anyway, I'll have to line and color it digitally soon. :o It didn't take neeear as long as I expected it to, honestly! I expected it to take forever, but I had the main fullbody sketched out within a h…

I have a free class before lunch tomorrow and all I'm gonna do is buy myself cookies. xD

Yep. xD At least that's the plan right now, anyway, but if it's raining I'll probably just stay at school. I have $1.71 between two gift cards for Tim Hortons, and I have a couple of quarters in my bag too, so I'm just gonna walk up to Tim…

I've had Raining and Vacation Town by The Front Bottoms stuck in my head all daaay. xD

Yesss. xD They're both really good songs though, so I have no complaints, ahaha. I had Vacation Town stuck in my head when I first woke up, and then Raining was stuck in my head for a lot of the day, and now I'm back to Vacation Town again…

All of my favorite bands have released new stuff recently or are releasing new stuff, and I'm really happy about it. xD

Yesssss. :D Rise Against and Blink-182 both released new stuff a few months ago, The Front Bottoms are releasing a new album, and Barns Courtney is releasing an album, too! X3 Barns Courtney isn't a band though, but it would've made the ti…

IT'S BEEN SOOOO HUMID AND GROSS OUT THE PAST TWO DAYS. ;-;

UUUUGGGH. ;o; I've felt super gross and sticky like all day, and just eeeeeeehhhhh. qoq I don't like this at all, why is this happening nowwww, I don't understand. ;u; I have a free class last class tomorrow! :o So that'll be good, I'm not…

MY PLUSHIES ARRIVED TODAY! :'D

YESSSS! X3 My plushies of King and Alexander are finally here! :D Them arriving is definitely the highlight of my day today, ahaha. xD I'll try to post a picture of them here sometime when I can! ewe I walked up to McDonalds on my free cla…

I think I have a free class in school all year this year! :o

Yeah! :o I won't have it every day or anything, since it's sharing the block in my schedule that chemistry's in too, but it looks like I'm gonna have chemistry and the free class all year, I think! I'm pretty sure this means I didn't get i…

I'm getting up really early tomorrow morning, but it's gonna be worth it! :D

Yeah! :D I'm probably getting to see Thomas again tomorrow, so getting up at like six thirty is gonna be worth it, ahaha. xD So that'll be great! ewe I'm looking forward to it. I didn't do a whole lot today, but I did get most of my stuff …

Today was an adventure, but not in a really busy way! :D

Yeah! ^.^ When I got to Thomas's place we pretty much just played a little Superhot with his virtual reality stuff, and then we just watched a bunch of things on youtube and netflix before I had to go. xD So it wasn't really busy or anythi…

Tonight was not neeear as busy as last night was at work! xD

Yeah! :D So that was really nice. And I still got $13 in tips tonight, too, which was also nice. xD Usually I only get between six and nine bucks when I work Saturdays, but the people that were in tonight tipped well, so that was good! :o …

I got called into work today. ;-;

... Yeah. ;=; I got asked this morning to work the closing shift. It was really, really busy too, and people kept coming in even after we were supposed to be closed and our signs weren't lit up anymore. D: I made $15 in tips, but honestly,…

AND NOW MY PLUSHIES ARE IN CUSTOMS. xD

YES. xD I'm really excited, though, I want them to get through customs as fast as possible and get to meeeee. x'D I might have to pay duties on them though? Because it's an international package. But I miiiight not have to do that if the p…
