Hey folks!
General | Posted 18 years agoI'm baaack~ I had an absolutely fantastic time. However I had the plane trip from hell..
Essentially, I got fucked up the ass. I'm currently on hold with Air Canada and have been for the past 25 minutes. UA refused to supply me with accommodations for the night because I'm a minor, so I slept at a hotel with two guys I met heading in the same direction as me..
I was booked for 7 different flights, I ended up on four different planes, Security overall was fine, but the ridiculous CSC line made me upset. Not to mention they lost, literally, over half the plane's luggage. Only ten bags arrived properly.
the Ottawa thing is because they told us it was canceled due to a snow storm all around the area. Like a huge storm.
I spent all day in O'Hara yesterday, with no money, no food, nothing but the clothes on my back. etc. (I'll tell you the whole story later Martin, so you understand more, there was a lot of stuff I shouldn'tve had to deal with, also, every pilot I had was very kind and seemed to know what they were doing).
Overall, I'm tired, but I had an adventure, I met some really interesting people. But I'm just a really patient person in the sense of dealing with bullshit, I saw a woman take a tantrum and cry. Oh, and a guy got arrested in the airport. Etc etc.
Essentially to recoup here's a time line.
Arrive at airport at 10:30(an hour and a half early like they request), find out flight scheduled for 12:15 is canceled due to heavy snow, wait in customer service line for nearly an hour(like 50 minutes or something), have a woman who barely speaks English with a heavy 'black' accent tell me to RUN to section D(which is on the other side of the terminal, and the other terminal btw, IE as far away as possible) because the plane they redirected me on boarded five minutes ago, I get there five minutes late, too late. I go to customer service, I wait in like for an hour and twentyish minutes next to a guy with like 9 kids two of which have the chicken pox(poor guy, they oversold his tickets, he'd been trying to get around for over twenty hours), anyhow, I finally get to the thing, I wait for a while longer and the only flight she has until the next day is to Chicago then Halifax, I accept.
This part was cool, I fly first class to Chicago(I sat next to the most interesting man..), I arrive, they don't have any information about the Halifax flight apparently, an hour later they do, I wait for four hours until the scheduled flight, they delay, I wait, they delay, I wait, they delay, seven hours later and no food since 9am that morning, they cancel. I wait with some interesting fellows in line for an hour, they tell us there's three seats for a flight to New york at 8am the next day. We accept, they go off and start booking their hotel while they tell me that they cannot make accommodation for me because I'm a minor, I ask them what am I going to do, they say uhhh..., then the fellows come back and ask me if they can help out because they're going to have space in the room, this works out lovely and I do this(keep in mind I've never met these guys, I'd been talking to them for hours and they might know someone I know.. but at this point I was so sick of not having a shower), anyhow, we wait for the shuttle, pizza(OHASDJFKLASJDFKL this was so good after such a long day), movie, sleeeeep.
Flight is delayed, we get on plane, we wait an hour on the plane to fly out because of air traffic, we fly, we arrive late, we go to the next gate for Halifax, they tell us there's an error in our tickets, we go to the CSD, we wait for an hour, we talk to them, they send us to the other side of the terminal, we get stuff looked at, we go back to the CSD, we wait twentyish minutes, we get our stuff, we go back the the gate, we go through security, one guy's bag goes off and so do he, we wait for him to be searched etc, we get in the terminal, guy goes berserk and is arrested, we wait, flight delayed, we wait, flight is delayed, we wait, flight delayed, flight ALMOST canceled, flight goes on! We board tiny little cramped smelly plane, plane stays put for an hour and a half(literally :|), we fly, we arrive! Gate agent leaves us on plane for twenty minutes, we go through customs, we go to baggage, most of the plane's baggage is not there, two hours of forms and waiting in line later, they tell me my bag isn't there yet.
We drive home, I call them and they tell me my bags arrived this afternoon and they'll mail me, but I have to call Air Canada. So here I am, 45 minutes on hold.
(there's lots of worse little things, but that's a time line of important thingies)

Merry Christmas and all that jazz
General | Posted 18 years agoMerry Christmas fuckers.
AH HAH PAID TICKET
General | Posted 18 years agoWoo I'mma going to Virginia bitches!
Yo holla
General | Posted 18 years ago Just a call out to no one in particular, letting y'all know I'm still alive. I've been totally swamped with just some emotional stuff, been being tested with the brain and such. It's alright though, it's getting sorted out and should be fine soon.
I've also been at a total loss of things to do artsy things of, sorta wish I was in an art trade with an artist who could return about the same amount of effort y'know?

Alright. Damnit let's do this.(Commissions)
General | Posted 18 years agoIn light of recent inspirations(see previous journal) I'm determined to get some cash down into my accounts for my. My grandfather always wanted me to do what he never had the chance to(my grandmother made him give up his art for more stable work. Bitch.), so I'm opening up for more than icons. I started a new job, which is better, but I get less hours which isn't good for the money. SO I have to make the extra on the side if I want to be able to visit my boyfriend(whom I'll be having to meet his mother for the first time.. Fear!). Also, I've made it my goal to pay to see my boyfriend, with only my art, so this is going to be a little difficult.
Also, I've come to the conclusion that I will visit my grandfather, I will see him. Even if it makes me cry. He enters into the hospital officially on Halloween, so I'll probably see him tommorow.
Anyway. Rates are negotible(higher or lower) and as follows.
500 x 500 (resized to 100x100) icons: 3-5$CAN (depending on difficulty/complexity)
Full character cleaned up pencils/inks: 5-10$CAD(depending on pose/difficulty again)
Character Colour bust: 10$CAN
Full Character colour: 18$CAN(With either lines or painterstyle, your choice)
Multiple characters add 5$CAN
Backrounds are negotible as well. Also, if there's an option you're looking for that's not up here. Just message me here/AIM/note, and we can talk.
Boyfriend funds: 40$/600$CAN (c'mon people, let's see my sweetheart)

Grandfather.
General | Posted 18 years agoLast night, my father called me. My grandfather, my inspiration for art, for life, what I've always strived to be, yet I've never truly know him. Has entered the hospital, he's 90 years old and a cancer survivor. But they think that he has a very short time left.
Really, the idea of death isn't what really gets me. I always felt I had more time, I had the rest of my life to learn about who he was. I've looked up to him so much, I don't want him to think I'm strange, he has an enigmatic feel to him though.
And the stranger thing is, the reason I never visit, is because of my grandmother(who I thought would go first), and I never get to talk to him if she's there, I can never get him alone. It's also.. awkward.
I'm not ready to go visit him, I don't know if I could stand seeing him, I could never bear to have him see me cry. But I've got the strange desire to sink myself into art, into the passion he seeded in me.
But, what if he goes before I'm ready?

Question
General | Posted 18 years agoDo you guys prefer the new lineless stuff I've been playing with? Or my linework?
Also, I finally got my doctor's appointment to get my body all in working order so I'm pretty happy about that. And I have had my last day at the golden arches! And I'm loving my new job at the Jungle(a jungle themed resturant, it's so tacky and fun)
Anyhow, quick update. Remember I'm doing cheap icon commissions.
Savings status(from commissions alone): 40/600
total savings(Real job): 400/2500

Hee hee, condom fashion show
General | Posted 18 years agohttp://ahboon.net/2007/07/19/condom.....show-in-china/
Saw this and thought it was neat, also in other news. I has a new job, sadly I get a few less hours but it's much less stressful.
It's been cold, but beautiful here. Trees are spectacular this year~
Also, found out that I might not be seeing my boy this year as my week off for march break, and his mid-terms are the exact same time. So I'm pretty bummed out about that, but we'll see what happens~ I still have to save the cash up.
Also, brilliantly fun art over with
dirtybaka,
thumbclawz,
dustmeat, and
ilucore
There's some artistry whoring, but really go look at them~
Also, if I was to open up pencil/colour commissions, what would y'all pay?

Ickle Icon commissions(3-5 dollars?)
General | Posted 18 years agoAh HA I finially figured out how to get paypal working(kinda I think) and I'd like to test it out by offering up cheap icons.
They'll be like what's pictured here: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/831423/
I'll be offering them for.. hrm.. 3-5 dollars? Is that too high? Which is good?
I'm trying to save for a trip to: A) visit my boyfriend either march break or for christmas(probably the former). B) a trip to the netherlands this summer.
needless to say I've got to bust my ass, so I figured, why not get better at faces and make a little bit of pocket change at the same time?
So leave a comment here if you'd like one and then we'll talk.

Boyfriend!
General | Posted 18 years agoSo after.. oh.. well since august! My boyfriend has come down for a visit finally, he's been here a week now and I couldn't be happier <3 we had a few scares. Condom broke, I crashed my mother's car, etc etc. It's been really bad luck but I'm still really happy. That's probably why art has been of lax this past week.
I LIKED HP7
General | Posted 18 years agoFuck you guys, I liked it.
Hnf.
General | Posted 18 years agoBored and jazz, and since I have pretty much all day tommorow before my boyfriend comes up(ASKLDJGLFKADFJGDFLKJGDFKLGJDSFKLGJSDLKFGJ <3 ) I'd like to take a trade or two?~ So if you'd like hit me up on AIM(Spooky Kitteh) or MSN(spooky-kitty@hotmail.com) because I don't know who is busy and who is not, and frankly, I'm shy to go and say hello.
Summmmeertiiime and the livin's easy
General | Posted 18 years agoWell.. not quite, I work my butt off! I'm trying to make some extra cash because I have three things to save for:
University(or college, post secondary education) 9k-26k$
My boyfriend's visit this July 200$
A trip to the Netherlands to visit my best friend 2600$
Needless to say, I'm a workin' woman! And this is more of a shout out to anyone looking to get comission work done, I have no set rates and it's discussable. I won't be taking too many, and this isn't begging. I can do this without commission work, but it's more to say,"I'm open if you really want me =P"
Anyhow! Onto more important measures! I'm going to see the transformers movie this weekend with some of the guys I work with and I'm pretty excited! I've also been working on some fanart for a dear friend of mine
dalus so wait and see!

General | Posted 18 years agoI've been wanting to get more involved and make a few more friends around here, does any one have any suggestions on how? I'd like to get more into tha rt community here.
I wonder often.
General | Posted 18 years agoWhat some of the people I watch look like, and then I wonder. Do they wonder too?
This requires some pondering.

Hey guys ; o ;
General | Posted 18 years agoSorry I haven't really been keeping up to track here with thank yous and the like. Real life has gotten in the way. I started work at Mickey Dee's, and I've been -terribly- tired as of late, I don't know what's wrong I've just felt super drained. I've also been contemplating doing a 'hay guys it's me and my fursona comparison' picture as well as a progression picture. Whatcha'll think?
OH QUICK FREE SKETCH 2!
General | Posted 18 years agoFree sketch to whoever posts first, but I don't want any of this,"ME!" jazz, type what you want sketched in the post(make it a little harder ;3 )
Anyhow, this is kind of a gimmick to snag the attention of all you artists, I've been recently slacking on my art and I need someone to help.. boost me so to speak, so really I'm just looking for more people to talk to on AIM/MSN or OC with, C & C buddies, etc.

Happy belated birthday to me
General | Posted 18 years agoWell, yesturday was my 16th birthday, so congradulations to myself for not getting hit by a car thusfar.
Species change
General | Posted 18 years agoWell guys, for an update on people who don't look at the art in their message this is just a notice to say I've switched from an Ocelot to a white Serval. While the design is still in the making I'm almost satisfied with it.
My reasons for changing is the fact that the spots of an ocelot were far too distracting and often took away from the piece, so a white serval should be much more flexible.
