So I went to watch Sing in theaters and....OH MY GOD, IT WAS EVEN BETTER THAN WHEN I WENT TO SEE ZOOTOPIA. It was probably the best music-heavy movie I've seen.....Yes......Even beating American Tail...Damn, never thought I would say that...But I swear, I ended liking every main character in this film by the time I finished watching, from Buster and Eddie, to Rosita, Gunther, Ash, Mina (Especially Mina) Johnny, Nana and.....Yes, even Mike (I know Mike's an asshole and it was basically because of him that Buster's problems got even worse than they were at the start, but when I saw him start to change his tune a little, I only wished he did have to deal with the metaphorical hole he dug himself into). If anything, I'd say this movie was better than both Zootopia and Kung Fu Panda 3 (Which I had to get the DVD for because I chose NOT to see it in theaters.)

Also......Not dead. Kay? Thanks, die. *Blows up Krillin*

Okay, time for a bit of explaining. About six months ago, I helped my family move to Houston and I went along with them. Long story short, I ended up quitting my old job since I didn't see any normal way of getting back to my hometown and I ended up letting my mom pawn off my laptop since she acted like she needed the money.....And trust me, I was mad about that. I eventually got so fed up with Houston that thanks to an old friend of mine, I moved back and even got a new job, albeit only being part-time. But unfortunately, I left behind more than half of my belongings, plus the laptop my mom pawned off. So that's why not only have my uploads been pretty much traditional work, but why they've been so scarce for these past few months and why I haven't been taking requests, trades or commissions. And surprisingly enough, not many people knew about this going on in my life. Those who did only got bits of the whole situation.

Can someone please tell me what the heck is there to even do? I mean, this is a huge city and all, but so far, it's more boring than my hometown.

I figured that I shouldn't rely on Paint Tool SAI anymore and decided to try Photoshop for a while...Just one problem. I really don't know how to use it. So I'm probably gonna need some help figuring out the tools and settings, and even then, it might be a while before I can upload anything, assuming that I don't switch back to SAI.

I've really got some explaining to do, huh?

Well....Lately, I haven't been uploading a lot of pics, and even if it wasn't apparent here, it was most likely obvious on my Tumblr. As for the reason....Or should I say reasons, for that.

One, is that I've been preparing to move with my family for a while now, and I've finally done it about a week ago. And we didn't just move to a different part of the town I live in, no. We actually moved to Houston, which is a lot bigger than I originally thought. Kinda makes me wonder what I'll find in a place like this.... And unfortunately, I'm also out of a job, so I have to go find a new one.....Yay....


Now for the second reason. I ended up getting a new tablet during the last week that I'm still getting used to, and it hasn't gotten much easier. That being said, I can't wait until I can fully get the hang of it.

So, between looking for a job, I'll be opening back up commissions and try to finish a few of my Dell drawings again. Hopefully I'll be able to get quite a bit done within that much time.

Why?! Why is the flower evil?! Why did it look like it wanted to rape me?! The fuck is going on?! Aaaahh, I'm already regretting playing this!

I was completely wrong! There's hardly anything bad I can say about this game! Except...Why does my character look so stupid??

And now for the bad news...Something tells me I'm gonna get jumped by a lot of creatures heavier than me...Time to get the suit of armor!

To anyone wondering about this character: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/16673359/ , I'm not planning to stop drawing him, but I haven't thought of anything new. Then when I used him in response to some jokes my co-workers made, it was actually pretty fun doing that. So I've been thinking...Does that seem like a good idea? Opening up a Tumblr page dedicated to asking questions directed to Dell? Yes? No? If you think so, by all means, leave a comment and a question.

I really don't know what to say here. What could I say here?? In fact, I couldn't even look directly at my screen, because I knew what I'd be looking at. Even stopped the video too. Just...Who would make a movie based on actual s***?! I'm not saying that it's a bad review, but.....Wow...Just...Huh. Here's the link: https://youtu.be/3VLp4-Xpygo And the only reason I'm posting a journal on this one Animated Atrocity is well...Look at the title of the video and you'll see why.

I'll be honest. Should I care? Should anyone care? This is a theme that's been done to death, with Almost Naked Animals, Sonic the Hedgehog, Pokémon Mystery Dungeon, Micky Mouse, My Gym Partne-.......Mickey Mouse...Seriously, this is basically Disney reusing hackneyed material. I'll eventually watch it sooner or later, if anything, because the main character's a smart-ass and I'd like to see what he'll do, but other than that....Eh.

This is a weird question, but if your character had a voice which cartoon character do you think they would sound like? And yes, that includes anime characters.

I just caught wind of one of the newest epsiode of Family Guy, and all I have to say is....

I'M FUCKING DONE. Brian is nothing to me and is literally the most horrible character in that show, as well as Family Guy being a horrible show in general now. I will also delete every pic of Brian I did and pretend that I never uploaded them. So enjoy them while you can, because come this morning, they're fucking gone. As is any chance of ever drawing Brian Griffin ever again. And my god, I'll enjoy the day when Family Guy is canceled.

I bought a Bowser Amiibo two days ago, and only used it for about 4-6 hours in those two days...Damn thing ended up becoming so powerful, not even faster fighters had a good advantage over it! It was like I was fighting a bear! It laughed off my weaker jabs and any hard-hitting attacks I used on it didn't send it far enough for a K.O.! But it didn't have to try hard to K.O. me, though! If I were to go head-to-head with this thing, I'd get K.O.'d within seconds! Seriously, I've created a monster....

The question is though, which version should I get?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zKjoH7MVkOA

O.e ......Pfft, HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAhahaha....*GASP* HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA!!!!

I'm sorry, I know this is over a year old and that it's not something I should make light of...But how can anyone NOT laugh about it eventually?? How?!

FUCK. THIS. DAMN. SHOW. Fuck everything about this show. And fuck the fact that this show exists!

When I first watched this cartoon, I was twelve and actually enjoyed it. However, looking back on it now, I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT I EVER CONSIDERED THIS TO BE GOOD. The jokes and running gags are a little lame, some of the characters are two-dimensional, and the two main characters.....Well, Adam's a wimp and Jake's utterly annoying. And the moments of romance.....When people talk about bestiality, they bring up furries as a main point, or rather, that cutscene in Sonic '06. Bringing up furries is pretty much discriminatory, and Sonic '06......Okay, you got me there. But then, what's this bastard show's excuse?! And this was shown to little kids and older children, them being the target audience!

Anyways, I'll start things off with the beginning.....The opening. No really, the beginning of the story is summarized in the opening title sequence. Apparently there were two middle schools in town this series takes place in. One for humans, and the other, Charles Darwin Middle School, for animals. One day, Adam, a twelve-year-old human boy gets transferred to Charles Darwin Middle School because his last name is "Lyon" ....."Lion".....But with a "Y". And this is my first problem with this series. Why on earth didn't they transfer him back to his old middle school? Did they just decide to say "Fuck it, he's staying"? And I know I'm someone who is already aware of how non-existent the line between humans and animals seems to be nowadays, but I'm not looking at this plot point in that way at this moment. But yeah, he didn't get transferred, and now has to attend school with animals.

Now for the main characters. Adam is easily the one I really feel bad for. Reason being is that he's going to school with a bunch of animals. Some that might even try to rip him to shreds. Any normal twelve-year-old would cry for their mom in that kind of situation, which, shockingly enough, he doesn't do that often. But for the most part, he's made to be an utter wimp, or the character with some actual common sense, but his words are usually worthless in most of his situations, most of the time being the target of physical humor, the prey of some bigger stronger and hungrier predator or the victim of a beating / moment of intense embarrassment. And sadly, his best friend sometimes tends to make things even worse than they already are. Speaking of which....Jake. I FUCKING hate this one. In fact, HE'S the reason why I hate monkeys! This guy acts like an idiot, tries come off as Adam's best friend, and easily turns on him for "reasons" (whether it be his animal instinct or not), and for the most part, is an obnoxious asshole. Windsor the Gorilla has to be the best character in the show. He's the bookworm of the group and it shows, when he gives some pretty great words of wisdom, and tends to be the once with even more common sense than Adam, albeit just like most of the other animal students he doesn't use his common sense whenever he gets riled up. And whenever he acts odd or shy, I can't help but actually laugh a little.....Too bad he's a minor character compared to the first two I mentioned. Ingrid is like Hinata Hyuuga from the Naruto series. She's a little shy and has a secret crush on Adam, but doesn't want him too know right away. But the only memorable thing about her is her neck. No really, most of the time you'll only see her neck and body, but not her head. "Heheh, she's a giraffe and giraffes have long necks so it's funny because her neck stretches too far off screen-" Yeah I get it, but that's kind of lazy since that means that her head is pretty much cut out most of the time! And FYI, a giraffe's neck is usually about the same length as their spine, if not an inch or two shorter. Also, Ingrid and Windsor are probably the most likable and down-to-earth characters in the entire cartoon. There's also Slips the Python and Guadalupe the Toucan, but these two are almost lamer than Jake and Adam. Slips acts like a Shikamaru from Naruto......If Shikamaru was an idiot.....Yeah. And, since we're on the topic of Slips, WHY ON EARTH DOES HE EVEN HAVE A T-SHIRT?! SNAKES DON'T HAVE LIMBS!! And even if that wasn't a big issue to address, there's still the fact that he has hair.....A snake....That has HAIR.....WHY?? Lastly Guadalupe is.....Well, she's loud. And she might be Spanish.....So there's that. But yeah, most of these characters, if not all of them is pretty two-dimensional, and any quality to their personality that's seen in one episode is quickly forgotten in all the others. Really, I can understand when someone has a tendency to be inconsistent but that's just plain lazy if you're just gonna brush off something that makes a character more unique like it meant nothing. SpongeBob SquarePants does this all the time, and look how bad that show has gotten now! And I can't be the only one who questions why do some of the animal students who should have scales or not be able to grow hair or fur, have hair styles and even stubble on their faces! WHY?!

Next, the plot. Usually, it's the same thing every few episodes. A seemingly normal day (and I use the word "normal" loosely) occurs at school for Adam, Jake and their friends, Adam, Jake, Windsor or Ingrid, (it's usually one or more of those four, and almost never Guadalupe or Slips) get into a situation caused by either the other one of the previously mentioned four characters (also including Guadalupe as the fifth, but again usually not Slips) their teachers, principal, the school bully or a character(s) of the day, and they manage to resolve the problem through some harebrained solution and pass off their moment as nothing too big, all the while, throwing in all sorts of jokes to get their viewers laughing. This is my main issue. The humor. It's rarely ever clever or impressive, to be honest, and most of the time it falls on Jake to be the funny one. Ironically, even though he's the most annoying, he is a kind of funny character.....Until the writers decide to include him in some fart or butt jokes. After that, it gets a little irritating to continue watching without the urge to change the channel or find something different to watch. Farts aren't funny to everyone, and some people find that kind of humor gross or tasteless. Same with poop jokes or toilet humor- OH WAIT, THAT'S RIGHT! They've tried that stuff too! The first episode of Sonic Boom had the most clever writing I've ever seen anyone give to Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy and Eggman. Why couldn't that team of writers be on My Gym Partner's a Monkey?! Hell, Skarow alone could write something better! Heck, I've been diagnosed with A.D.D. by a therapist and A.D.H.D. by my aunt (she used to be a teacher for the Special Ed students and has four kids who all graduated High school), and I could write something better, dammit!

The design. Usually the character design isn't much of a problem (Unless you're part of the Sonic fanbas- OW!! What the hell, who just threw a rock at my head?!), but that isn't the case with My Gym Partner's a Monkey. Most of the characters have pretty bland or god-awful designs, the worst two being for Bull Sharkowski and Slips, whose designs make little sense in some aspects. Adam and Jake aren't that impressive to look at, and the only two characters that actually have a pretty neat physical appearance are Windsor and Principal Pixelfrog (Yes, the principal is a LITTLE FROG.....Wow, how are the students not having the balls to eat him??). And considering how some of the background characters look, this show isn't all too appealing.

Overall, this cartoon isn't considered that bad by most, but it's my personal thoughts on the premise of the cartoon that fills me with rage whenever I even think about the very title. It's a cartoon about animals. Seriously, since I've wanted to be a cartoonist for a while now, and I've always wondered, if I made a cartoon involving anthropomorphic animals, how would I make it? And then I look at My Gym Partner's a Monkey, realizing that the jackasses who made this screaming sack of crap got to my idea before me and made it into.....THAT. And since I watched Animal Planet almost all the time when I was eight years old, it REALLY irks me. Even Kenny the Shark had better writing AND they even included facts about certain animals (mostly sharks, because OBVS!) in the main plot and humor! Plus Kenny, who was a shark, was a much more fleshed out character and had a more anatomically correct design than Bull OR Slips! Did the creators of this damn show even BOTHER to look up certain tidbits of info about the animals the were designing, like, oh I don't know....THE FACT THAT SNAKES AND SHARKS CAN'T GROW HAIR?! I know these is only my opinion and if I offended anyone who likes this show, I'm sorry....But I just can't get over how much I hate this cartoon. I....I think I need to go eat some ice cream......

A friend of mine is hosting a contest that's for anyone who's a Gundam Fan. Just take a pic of a Gunpla model you have doing a pose of the red gundam!

More details on the contest here ----> http://particleoflight.tumblr.com/p.....posing-contest

It's well worth your money. Just a quick tidbit though. The lag is really slow, they might wanna fix that.....Either that or my internet connection is horrible and Suddenlink owes me an explanation.

I'm just giving a heads-up that I'll be livestreaming soon (in about half an hour, maybe sooner. I just need to set up and finish signing some documents.

Thanks to everyone who tuned in to today's livestream, and I'm sorry for any unexpected mishaps. Did everything go smoothly? Were there any problems? Let me know what you thought and how you experienced it, and I'll be sure to improve on whatever I can next time.

Just mainly a quick test livestream before I go to work today. It should start at around....4:40 CDT.
Here's the link: https://new.livestream.com/accounts/4815738/

My job's been eating up my time- Wait, let me start over. While it IS true that my job is at night, every time I come back home, I feel too tired to draw anything, and end up plopping into my bed and almost instantly dozing off. It's not a bad job, though. I don't get much of a negative vibe from the workplace, at least. But yeah, to give an answer for my lack of activity, I've just been tired from work. Good news, I have my 2-day break after my shift tonight. So there is that.

On a side note, my birthday is exactly on next Monday.....If anyone even dares to sing some corny birthday theme songs, go right ahead. I'd love to slice everyone's tongues on the first part in the lyrics.

<_< . . . . . What? Just because it's my birthday, you think I need to be a saint during the time?? Yeah right! "Saint" and "Non-violent" are two things I am not! In fact, for my birthday, I'm gonna get someone to help me with some....."Fireworks"......Yeah......

My computer is fried. I wish I was making that up, but no. My computer ended up getting an error that forces it to not be able to start up, and it's locked in place, until I can repair it. But to be fair, that thing's a piece of crap anyway, it's pretty obvious. So I can either pay to have that piece of crap computer fixed OR I can get a replacement. But right now, I'm using my mom's computer, so I'll have to be extremely careful with it. If I can install my tablet drivers onto it, I can resume drawing.

On a side note, I managed to get a job in overnight stocking, which mean I just might actually get the money I need to either get a new computer or fix my old one.
