SO MANY PHOTOGRAPHS.
It is much easier to snap five hundred photos than to sort through them and actually use them. Man, now I feel lazy. :C But I swear I'm going to post all of my projects to my deviantART. Eventually. I wanted to just keep snapping until I was done, but some repairs/redesigns need to happen... I dunno.
Canvassed with Photographs List: big brodda beta big brodda little brodda cecilia loosian cardboard hell I cardboard hell II 4"x6"x8" hell
The Still to Go List is complicated. I'm basically just going through my models chronologically, and at least I'm now into my UG1 studio. Now I just have to finish UG1, and then do the other three, filling in whatever photographs I didn't take at the time. But then this one UG1 model needs repair/redesign of the supports... that shouldn't take too long, right? Hm. Gah. Just gotta do it. But I think photographing is the best. I get to show off.
Sometimes I wonder if I shouldn't just be a photographer and specialize in architecture or something. |

Photographing outside without proper equipment is a pain in the ass. It doesn't really help that the sun is pretty much at its lowest altitude of the year. Frickin' solstice. But I think I got my shots. Shots of the crappiest project I ever did and would never include in my portfolio. Agh.
ANYWAY, TODAY AS I WAS LOOKING FOR A PICTURE OF A ROCK, I VISITED WIKIPEDIA AND IT TOOK ME A GOOD MINUTE TO FIGURE OUT THAT THE ROCK CYCLE CHART I WAS LOOKING AT WAS FOR MINERALS AND NOT MUSIC. OOPS.
SO I FIXED IT. ENJOI.

The new episode of Law & Order SVU totally put me off to watching any new episodes.
If I wanted to get preached to for an hour about how immigration laws shouldn't apply to you or the finer points of dAnGeRouS RIGHT-WING TERRORISTS or omgsoheroric and self-righteous liberals I would watch the original series or turn on CNN, NBC, etc.
Seriously, fuck you guys and save it for Keith Olbermann. Or your first show. I'm not changing my political opinions to watch your shit. |

Oz just called me from Northern. Someone got into her class's server, and sabotaged every file in it. 75% of her final animation project is gone. She didn't back it up, being a naive transfer student.
I feel bad for her, wonder why she didn't back up, and remember what it feels like to have your academic reality turn into a nightmare world. Y'know, like one of those dreams you have, wake up and say "HOLY CRAP, THANK GOD IT WAS JUST A DREAM, AND I THINK I SHAT MY JAMMIES," except it's real and there will be no waking up from it. Damn it, as bad as I feel for her, all I can think of now is my emo ass and my time-based anxieties. Which by comparison are fluffy bunnies.
...Okay, I feel a little better now. |

While watching the game right now, my mom said to me,
"You know how to remember 43 is Darren Helm? Well you have a helm on a boat, right? The 4 looks kind of like a sail. And the 3... the boat has a butt on the end of it."
...I was raised by these parents. It is in my genes. I am sorry that I get so invested in the games that I talk about nuking whole states, scream and yell at the referees, linesmen, and even the defensemen, I'm working on toning it down. (I still love my family, though. XD ) |

That last entry was full of angst. This entry is full of angst a bit, but also some squee. And this exposition. MOVING ON.
Do my gaming friends remember that fake IGN Legend of Zelda Movie that happened? Well I think that 'movie' SUCKED. (The YouTube Poop parody was funny, tho.)
HOWEVER. I am suddenly re-interested in the idea of a LoZ movie, given that it doesn't suck. Why? Why indeed. WE COULD HAVE THS MAN PLAY GANONDORF. THAT WOULD BE MEGA-AWESOME KTHX.

Bev's birthday was today, but I was the one who did all the shopping and the wrapping. Couple this with helping my dad at video games, refilling virtually everything that could need refilling in the house, taking out the garbage, vacuuming, cleaning and organizing, and making me and my dad lunch, I'm beginning to wonder...

I blame freakin' Paint Shop Pro brushes. GRRRR BRUSHES I DON'T UNDERSTAND YOU AND THAT MEANS I HAVE TO HATE YOU. Except I figured out what was making you go OMG WE'RE RANDOMLY ROTATING on me, so we're cool. FOR NOW. Check it.

I took pictures of my bird, made 'em pretty failed at brushes, and now I'm sleeping. I've got architecturish things to do tomorrow! I finally got a cutting mat and steel rule to replace the ones I lost! And y'know what? I bet they're in Sparta. MOCKING ME. |

Now I remember what it feels like to have one decent night of sleep in four days. I HAVEN'T MISSED THIS FEELING AT ALL. DX
Frickin'... first it was drawing all day and all night, then there was some actual sleep, then it was waking up early for Thanksgiving and doing that, and today it was Goin' to Best Buy on Black Friday and other places. Aagh, if there was a wall closer to me, I would hit my head on it. But it's all the way over there. A headdesk will have to do. *does*
But I am really sorry to my friends in school who do this like every day. I really don't have anything to complain to you guys about right now.
Anyway. Mission accomplished at Best Buy, though. I got the gift I wanted (FRICKIN' LAST ONE IN THE STORE, HIDDEN BEHIND A BUNCH OF CRAP AND NO TAG BY IT, I SWEAR), plus some movies. Movies for me. Umm. Oz has rubbed off on me. I joke that she's a compulsive bargain-buyer, but... she really can't resist a sale, and then I tag along on her buying sprees. So now I'm buying a couple uber-cheap movies for like $2-5 here and there and it's awesome. Got Righteous Kill and The Dark Knight at BB today and Silence of the Lambs and Ocean's Eleven at Big Box Mart. I specify because my live-action movie ownage numbers just quintupled. All my stuff was animated except for Iron Man. XD Awww, am I finally growing out of cartoons at 22? What is that?! |

I am thankful for this delicious turkey and delicious delicious 90%-content-is-pork-sausage stuffing that I am still not eating yet. D: D: D:
No, but seriously, I'm thankful for the grace and faith that got me through those last two years of college... or heck, through college in general. Thank you, God. I'm thankful that the people around me are so chill-awesome that I feel like I don't have to pretend I'm something that I'm not. Thank you, guys. I'm thankful that, even though my dad lost his job a year ago, my family hasn't been in any financial danger since our house is paid for, and we've got more than enough food and heat. I'm even thankful my grandparents can knock off the nagging and pessisism long enough to eat a decent meal with us. And I'm GOING TO BE REALLY REALY THANKFUL FOR THAT REALLY REALLY DELAYED THANKSGIVING DINNER OMG, THANK YOU MOM AND DAD, ILU, BUT SERIOUSLY FEED ME NOW.
Happy Thanksgiving, y'all. :D |

Turns out the perfume was from my parents. Saves me some embarassment. lol
So um... cleaning today. My grandparents decided that perhaps they WILL grace us, the undeserving, with their magnificent presence this Thanksgiving, so we must make ready for their glorious arrival. *cough* In other words, they were this close to not coming because they didn't like our attitude when we asked them to not constantly browbeat us on the fact that neither I nor my parents have been able to find new jobs, or that we're a terrible family, or that we are essentially Doing It Wrong. They found it difficult to swallow that if they can't be nice, they can't come. It was going to be such a relief, too. But now they're coming again. On the condition that they SHUT. UP.
I mean, my grandmother has apparently been this way since my mom was little, but just recently it's spread to my grandpa. He used to be cool, too. :S
So I dunno. |

Today I was cleaning my room again. (Different part of my room. It's very small but very... dense.) Aaand I found something. An old present.
It was a box of perfume that I hadn't opened, but pretty soon, I regretted opening it. Because it smelled like what my room would smell like if it didn't get ventilated. And now it was out of the box. Ewwww. It and the box were removed from the premises.
When I showed Mom, she hit the ceiling. Apparently, Poison by Christian Dior is really expensive. Oops.
Tae doesn't have good taste. :C
However, Tae would still like to thank whoever got her this perfume. Mom seems really happy with her new pretty bottle. Sorry, and thank you! |

Okay, hold on, I had to press pause for just a second here.
So I'm sitting here. My hair looks terrible because it's in a lame-ass ponytail. In an old-school video game shirt. With said old-school video game keychain in pocket. Drawing World of Warcraft characters and learning about the armor system. For a site-based-currency commission on an anime forum. While listening to synthesized voice program Vocaloid singing polka. Saying to myself, "HOLD UP. It's 1AM. It's time for STAR TREK!"
...WHY AM I SUCH A NERD?!
P.S. The SAME Star Trek TNG episode is simultaneously on channel 20 AND 21. ALWAYS. It's just that channel 21 is always a minute or so off of channel 20. Craaaaazy! |

Excuse me, but what the FUCK?! I knew that NHL referees could call off some goals that were... unprovable. Y'know, no evidence one way or another, and the ref didn't see it go in. This I have seen time and time again, and y'know, it's borderline sometimes, but w/e. But I wasn't aware that NHL referees can call off ANY GOAL. ANY GOAL THEY FUCKING WANT.
Yeah. Game right now. If the refs 'didn't see it', it didn't happen. FUCK THE CAMERAS WITH AUDIO AND VISUAL EVIDENCE. ALL THE REFEREES HAVE TO DO IS THEY INTENDED TO WHISTLE IT DEAD. EXCUSEMEWHAT?
AW HALE NAW.
... ...Toeto, this YouTube video, makes me feel better. It's so cute. I don't care if it's Vocaloid. I don't care if I usually don't have trouble making myself heard. It's true for everyone sometimes. 3: |

Two sentances, that's all that's needed: 1. Obama Transparency = FAIL 2. "When the largest communist country is lecturing you about how your government is too big and has too much reach, you know you're in trouble."
In other news, YAY, BEV GOT MY CALCULATOR BACK! *HUGS HUGS HUGS AND CLINGS TO CALCIE* *Oh, and lots of hugs and thanks for Bev, too <3 * She'd lost it (and everything else in her pencil case) last Monday, apparently on the bus. My wake-up call this morning was that she'd found it. YAYY! Seriously, I can't program like this anymore. The programs on there are not reproduceable. T_T
Also, watching The Prisoner has been... interesting. Now it's Ian McKellan, smoking as 2... or at least, we're led to believe that it's 2. SO THAT'S WHY 2 WAS SUCH A FUCKING BASTARD. HE NEEDED A SMOKE. lol ...I wonder if there's an internet fandom? Second thought, nah, scratch that, I don't care what people are shipping. D: |
