I made a new video. I think we've brought our skills to a "whole. notha. level."
The feedback has been wonderful so far. Let me know any thoughts though!

Driving home contemplating on earlier events, nostalgia, appreciating my life, closer friends, working on comedy show, making strangers laugh with acting and ideas, thinking of skits, working on a future comic and possibly working on being a future comic? hardly studying, finishing goals, making a perfect summer playlist, soul searching, movie hopping, more drawing, prom crashing, meeting people on buses, having my art in a gallery, making more happy memories with friends old and new, finished first year of college.

Everything above is a description of what has happened in the previous months.

I've also applied to http://www.tintmagazine.com for an internship as an illustrator.


March 2008

I made some new stuff for my portfolio )





I'm finding out who I am. I know I'm able to pursue more than one passion now. And I'm greeting summer with great anticipation and I'm going to dive into some adventures, I can feel it.

For Valentine's Day, I was with two boys alone in a room.
Granted, I was there to audition for a comedy troupe.


I made the cut.
It was romantic.

My art professor's name is Zachary Zetterberg.

And I hope he is this guy:

I start my second semester of college in 10 hours and I have been online and just remembered I haven't prepared a thing.

My permanent pose for the months to come.
Christmas was filled with many thoughtful gifts this year.

And the following months have been filled with many assorted events.
Stories, video and photos of entertainment )






What did everyone get for x-mas?

And would anyone like to go on a photoshoot with me?

Hey, I'm nineteen and the newly leaked Radiohead tracks are obviously good.

...So anyone read a good comic lately?
/any of you even read comics?

I think I'm proud.
Especially since everything is improved, from the dialogue to the plot.

My friend Chris had to have a short movie for class. And I got to terrorize some ASU students.

Win win.

Okay okay. So I'm in this performance class at my college. I don't know how I ended up in it but hey, I've got this mid term coming up this Monday and it's a 5 minute performance. I don't do acting. So what do I choose? The only thing anyone in my position could do.

Stand up comedy.

I know I know. I might be digging my self a grave here folks and I'm scared. And I need your opinion. I have zero experience in this field. I don't even know if I even tickled a funny bone. So please. Humor me. (Pun. See? I might be funny?)

SERIOUSLY TELL ME WHAT ISN'T FUNNY. I FEEL LIKE I'M GOING TO DIE OUT THERE.

I'm kinda a character since my professor wanted some kind of scenario. Ugh. Awaiting your reaction is nerve wracking. If I didn't have to do this, I wouldn't. But I need honest reactions from the public so I can modify/leave out material. This is like the single most vulnerable thing I've subjected myself to. But I'll stop trying to prepare you to endure this so please, just watch.

I had to upload the FIRST VIDEO (Watch first!) to another site since Youtube thinks my first act sucks and it exceeds the MB limit.


Part 2

Geez. Just look at the frame still youtube chose for the video. I even look fucking helpless.



And just a P.S.

Today I found out I cannot blow up a balloon. Today I took the social outcast to a whole new level. It's definitely a new feeling when the circle of people around you are blowing up balloons and yours is still limp in your mouth. They even remembered to tie them. Even if by some chance I gained the skills of well let's say a "normal person's" "oxygen inflating skills" I would have that "now what?" look on my "face". For those of you wondering why face is in quotations, it's because I lost mine today. I well never be respected among my college Freshmen peers.

I am starting college Monday.

I was reflecting on this summer and it seems to be the longest summer I have ever experienced. I feel as though I almost had a different life then. Thought I'd share my alter life's photos from the past months and my

past life. )









I haven't been updating in a while but I want to catch up with all you LJ friends. What's new? Tell me what the last good movie you saw or new cd you've been hooked on or something!

The time is finally here. I'm done with high school. It's that time in life where you...well, enter life. And I'm greeting it with a "what took you so long?" and giving the bird to high school.


Some stories, Prom and OMG MORE PUPPY PICZ SO CUYUUUUUUUTEEEEEE )






Why am I still single? I just want a guy who's funny, artistic, likes video games, fashion conscious, not gay, emotionally aware, Marvel comic or manga reader, with an appreciation for many music genres, can sing-a-long with all The Beatles' songs, and who thinks cookie scented perfume is actually not a bad idea. Is that too much to ask?


For now I'll gush over these guys. If you like to laugh, watch this.








I'll end this ridiculously long, sporadicly organized post with two announcements:
I think I like Fall Out Boy's new songs.
I think I'm gay for that.
Which would explain the above single dilemma. I just emit gay vibes that send everyone's gaydar into overdrive.

It's nice to come home to puppies.

Baby canines and art go so well together. )





Semi-dilemmas:

I have no idea if I'm going to prom. I feel like I'll have no fun. Like being drenched in pig's blood no fun. I don't know anyone who is going. And I'll have to sit down during the slow dances.

So there's this kid that works at Ross who has the exact same voice as Gael García Bernal (tall glass of water in Science of Sleep). He even had the same mannerisms as Gael's character in Science of Sleep. I felt very Mary Kate and Ashley go to Mexico because I was gushing over a cute boy with an accent. It's easy to chat with a new person in a classroom setting or if they happen to know your friends, but it's so difficult making small talk with someone who is ringing up your yellow Keds.

So how do you do it? Can it be done? Should I lurk at Ross? Do I use a cheesy line?

"Hi, did you know I break the law everyday?" Too self indulgent?
"I want you inside me?" Too aggressive?
I'm clueless, folks.










By the way, I love octopus (no I don't).

By the way here's a song that has been making me happy recently: Don't Wake Me Up
I can't get enough of this band.













Rap battles, friend rendezvous just about everyday after school, dgafing on school work, prom plans, match making, happy songs, feeling comfortable, eating the best chicken pita, Monday off, laughing, laughing, laughing.
Things are pretty good.

I am still learning how the Wii works, but I want to duel all of you and have a Mii parade! So give me your numbers? Or whatever I need to be your friend? (That sounds like a really nerdy come-on!)

The result of the brink of insanity? For some.
But for me, it was the result of staying online at 2AM and listening to a Pokemon Christmas Bash.





But anyway.

Here's a cheesy little series done in a friend's

Sorrow.
Depression.
Lonliness.
Who doesn't want that in a Christmas song? A really intense Pokemon Christmas song.
Yeah. I know you do. So download:

You don't even have to like Christmas to enjoy this.





My cookies sucked this evening. I think it's the pan I'm using. I just ended up with the tummy ache and no cookies to enjoy (you have to have the tummy ache in order to throughly enjoy your cookie-making). Because of this, amongst other things, I wish I had an old lady friend. She'd teach me how to bake, sew, feed birds. Basically improve all the things I already do.
But I'd play with her denchers. And ask her where her husband was. We'd break up. It wouldn't work out.

I don't know why, but today was such a nice day. It could be the new "hype" playlist I made in my ipod that I blast while driving that jump started my morning. Or it could be speeding past everyone at 65 miles down Happy Valley. Come to think of it, now that I drive, I break the law everyday. How badass is that. Maybe the statement is cooler than the concept.

"Oh, hi I couldn't help but notice you across the room.
It's nice to meet you. Did you know that I break the law everyday?"

I'd have to say it in a very deep, suave voice though. But I'd have to be careful not to sound gross and man like. That would tooooootally ruin it.

I could see it being used in an action flick:

"CAREFUL, THAT'S DANGEROUS!!!"
"Calm down. It's okay.
I break the law.
Everyday."

That doubles as a rap song too. I am my own genius.

Anywho. Back to my feel good day. Perhaps it was the season that is getting to me? Or that I listened to my ipod practically all hour in one of my classes. It's funny how music effects your mood. I listened to my "happy" playlist and it amplified my happy mood like whoa. ...I couldn't think of something to compare it to. And I didn't want to say something like it amplified my mood like 289784 x's. That would simply be lame.
In conclusion, just know that I am in an extremely happy mood.
Of course, besides the fact that I am so stressed over this 4 page essay due tomorrow and I only did 1 and a half pages lol DGAF. <---my way of life for the past week.

Anygay, I fell in love with Of Montreal's Cato as a Pun off their new album. And I uploaded for everyone as a result of my good mood. http://files.filefront.com//;6342603;;/
I am risking my life uploading stuff for you kids (not literally) because I love you all so much (not literally). So download it!

On a sidenote, I just found out that Of Montreal is coming to town with Enon as an opening band. How I would love to go. But. How would you love to go? The catch is, it's in Tucson. But I will take care of the gas $$$!


Now I feel bad for telling you about how wonderful of a day it was. What if you were in a bad mood today? What if you granny died or if you got a paper cut two times in a day or is so pathetic enough to cut yourself with a butter knife? (true story)
To that I will link you to something I laughed at when I got home: http://youtube.com/watch?v=sPY6wlOOZ5E

That's one happy song and a giggle fest. Now there's no excuses to be blue!


Now for those who like to view my posts only because of my wonderful--maybe picasso status? pieces of art to you I say:
Here is a preview of what's to come )


I CANNOT WAIT UNTIL WINTER BREAK COMES. SO I CAN SLAP IT AND ASK IT WHERE ITS BEEN AND TELL IT HOW LONG I'VE BEEN WAITING UP FOR IT.





I am so, so, so sorry you read this.

MO' MONEY MO' MONEYYY $$$$$$$

And I am so excited. I am going to rock that job.

I am accomplishing goals and it's feeling wonderful. My main goal is to buy everyone christmas presents with my money! Yaaaaay. I can't wait for Christmas. It's definitely my favorite holiday and time of the year. I'm getting ready to rent all the cute Christmas movies out there. Or even romance movies that take place during Christmas. Like When Harry Met Sally. Would anyone like to reccommend me some?
