AND NOW YOUR ATTENTION IS MINE.

Myyyyyyy goodnesssss... where do I begin?

Art is always the most important since this is deviantart.

I have Art Foundations this year :U And since it's 9th grade, they're going to have us start working on our portfolios which really scares me because I don't think I'm quite that good just yet. ono I'm not even sure if I want to go into art...asdlkasjd. I already have my first project too and it's only the second day of school!~ I have to do a rough sketch for the principle "line". Then we'll use the printer... black and white... crap I forgot what that thing was called. Buttttt yeaaaaah. Most of the kids didn't realize that this was a qualification class thingy that makes it so that you can take advanced art classes in high school. Most of them can't even draw |C They probably won't be adding stuff to their portfolios xD But if I like my finished products, then I'll probably upload them. :u

School isn't that bad -so far-. I really like all of my teachers and the classes are okaaay. I have gym first hour |c I hate running so early in the morning (pfft acid reflex + early morning exercise = NOT FUNNNN). But all of my classes are right next to each other which means easy access for me~ And I am in ninth grade now (asd high school... that means I actually have to try) but my school is 7th-9th (unlike most achools) which means that I'm the top "dog" of my school. That's been pretty awesome, notgonnalie.

As far as hobbies go, I really think I'm improving with everything. Soccer has been going great for me... for me. I'm getting better, but I can't say the same about my team. I've actually been considering joining a new team next year... but I suppose it's not a big deal since I'll be trying out for high school soccer in the spring time. <3

I feel like I haven't drawn in forever. :c I really want to get some birthday presents in but ajsda ;______; I don't know if I'll have time. I have time for sketches a what have you, but not a lot of time for a final product. At least I'm actually allowed to draw in my classes this year. But I wanna upload stuff again ;A;

I really want to take a turn away from all of the cutesy crap in my gallery 8[ I never liked super cute crap anyway, it's just all that I was capable of. Plus I was a bit... afraid(?) of taking a spin away from that. I'm just never sure who can see my art and at what time. There's actually been a couple times where my dad has seen my art. I really hate when he does that. DX I guess... I guess what I'm saying is that you shouldn't be surprised if I have mature warnings on anything. I've wanted to draw darker stuff for quite some time, but I couldn't decide how to go about doing it.

This will give me an opportunity to introduce new ocs as well.

Speaking of original characters, I'm starting to change some around and get rid of some other ones. It's time to put the "original" in original character.

I think I'm going to spend my weekends checking messages and crap :,P It's only been a few days and I've already reached over 3,000.

Man... I'm tired. What else did I have to say?

(fashion journal) ] :star:

I haven't done a journal update about myself since July 22nd. SO I have a lot of crap to talk about. ...And I have a lot of energy right now |D

I am making a flash game
Something to actually look forward to, right? |D
Yeah I'm making an adventure game and finally publishing something in flash. I've been using Flash a lot, but I haven't published anything yet soooo yeah. I really want to up my actionscript skills so I want to try for a simple game first and then move onto more complex stuff like dating sims. As of now, the game is set in the past and you get to choose to play as a girl. Every choice you make will effect the story and you just might die c: But that's what the restart button is for |D Oh and the gender you choose will also affect the story o3o

As of now, the only thing I have done is their designs and a picture of them for the "choose your gender" screen. I might draw some pictures of them as a sneak peak o3o Not sure yet.

I get to put my butt into working on more stuff
Yeah so my brother and I might be going to the bookstore this weekend o3o He wants books for anatomy shapes and how to draw a human body shape without looking at a reference and junk. I need books for that and... everything else OTL'' I can't say I've been drawing as much as I want to. It's really pulling me back and I can't improve at the rate I think I can.
But while we're talking about improvement, I really think I've improved from any of the drawings in my gallery. Even that deviation I uploaded the other day -- still not what I think I'm capable of. I feel like I can do better. But I really think I need drastic improvement in a lot of areas;
- poses & anatomy. pffft most people have trouble with this. >: My poses are so blahhh and my anatomy really needs  help. I hate looking at my characters and they look so stiffffff
- backgrounds. It's mainly stuff like architecture. But that's why we study things while we're outside. I recently went downtown and took in some good ideas and analyzed some features in the older buildings. Hopefully I can apply that to drawing.
- perspective. I doodle a lot of perspective drawings (Terra575 knows xD You were with me during that iscribble doodle dump), but I never seem to come out and finish one. The last couple of pictures I did with perspective were pretty crappy, NOTGONNALIE |D But that's why we work at it
- proportions. this used to be my best thing D| It's mainly my finished works that have this problem because my lineart is sloppy. Maybe I should just say I need to improve my lineart xD
- emotions. And I'm not talking about facial expressions either. I'm talking about applying emotion into a picture. My favorite artist who uses emotion (check it out, I'm singling you out twice) is Terra575 and it definitely applies a lot of beauty to a picture. I've done a lot of sketches for emotional pictures, but that's not the same D:
- folds & clothing. mmm I draw some pretty stupid looking clothing designs NOTGONNALIE xD But I need work with adding folds in the correct places. Oh and when to use folds I guess |B Compression folds and blah blah blah.

EVERYTHING. bleh. It's like... I don't excel in anything at the moment. I have a basic understanding but that's just it D| oh welllllll IMPROVEMENT IMPROVEMENT IMPROVEMENT!!

Where have I beeeeeen :la:
Tiphaniie and I had like a four day sleep-over |D We're just that cool. pfft yeah but next year I'm doing a 50 mile bike ride with her. I'm going to end up getting competitive and want to be at the front... it's just how I roll~ Ohh and we went to warped tour July 30th~ It was pretty awesome. It was my aunt, my two cousins, my brother, his friend, and my mom. xD But we all separated. I MET PIERCE THE VEILLLLLLLLLL. It was worth sitting there in the blazing sun on black pavement for an hour to wait for them though. They are AMAZING live. pfft and Jaime was wearing a soccer jersey for Mexico |D Tipha and I said some pretty dumb things. NOT GOING TO RELIVE THOSE MEMORIESSSS.

I have summer homework to finish also. Four books. Four essays. I'm almost done with the first book. YAY UPGRADEEEE. I was going to do a book and an essay a week but that plan backfired after having a four day sleepover xD ohh well~ School starts September 8th for me. What about you guys? o3o

There's a lot of soccer stuff going on too eue My first year of highschool soccer starts in the spring and I'm really scared. But we started up practice again at the beginning of August and I have a lot of tournaments coming up |D So I probably won't be drawing around those times.

ANNNNND my grandparents are coming over our house from Florida. They like to be entertained at like every waking moment too. That's not a problem or anything, it's just another reason why I won't be able to find time to draw ene But they don't come in until... tomorrow :la: and I might get to go to the zoo |D I effing love penguins.

apffft I might be getting a guitar soon :iconlaplz:

See what happens? I take on a lot of hobbies and tasks and then don't have time for other things D| But that's why I've had to limit a lot of things. I'm never just sitting here. It's always "okay, If I'm going to watch TV, then I have to be drawing" or "if I'm going to sit out by the pool, I have to be reading". But at least I'm setting up schedules for myself and I'm not procrastinating. ughh procrastination is such a terrible habbit to get into DX I'm trying to break the habit! BLEH. It's not easy.

But ontop of taking on a bunch of hobbies, I can't stand being beginner and any of them. Competitive nature? ouo I have no idea. But I want to improveeeee :dummy: So I'm not going to waste any more time. I'll probably just slowly go into hermit mode so I can actually get some things done.

I have a lot of art projects to work on though. I need to finish my fairytale project. I haven't even drawn a sketch yet! x.x;; My theme is Little Red Riding Hood <3 And I also want to draw my bfflphagget something for her birthday because I do that liekk every year. I don't want to be late this year, either! T^T Prioritize! *w*

Okay this journal is long enough. I need to get back to work! >:{D I like working. I like schedules. That's so strange. ono

NEW AVATAR SERIES

I'm keep that up for everyone's convience <333

Fashion<333

I'm not a fashion expert or anything, so I decided to look up some stuff to help inspire me to draw and to help me get exactly what I'm looking for. While doing some of this 'research' I kept record of my favorite website for my convenience. I've decided to share it with you (mainly because it's easier for me to go right on my DA page and there it is XD). I know I've been gone for a short while and haven't been commenting or uploading any art like I usually do... but that's a story for later <3 I hope this helps some people out like I know it's done for me C: You're welcome XD

NOTE: some of these are gender specific websites. These websites can be used for design inspiration or pose inspiration.
Some websites might fit under more than one category. Be sure to click around each website to find what you're looking for.
Some websites may contain langerie/underwear.

I hope it helps! C:
