Mental Conversation I was having.
Posted 18 years agoI don't want to get out of practice coz' that really fucks me up in the long run. I don't know what it is but I forget things easily when I draw. Somedays I will feel like the king of the world and I can just draw away! Sometimes these kicks last longer than a day or two and it really feels great when you are in that mindset.
Then another day comes, but for some reason you don't "have it" anymore. Anatomy melts away, you keep on slipping back into earlier styles you don't really want to visit often. This is when the self-doubt drips in and you start to think pessimistic thoughts. You start to break your style down inwardly,
"Do I even have a style? I wonder who or what influenced my art to make it appear the way it does now. I'm so unoriginal. I bet if I searched the net enough I'm sure I would to find someone else that ALREADY has been doing what I do."
I'm honestly one of those "what if" people. I constantly ask myself and others, "What if?" I think that a big majority of my life is and has been spent in a Dreamworld. Sometimes I faze out and see these images in my head if creatures dancing to music or running about. They are clear to me but also vague enough that I couldn't verbally explain it to anyone without striking up a one man monologue.
Whatever, I guess what I am saying is that I need to be more avid with my drawing again. I feel like a train is coming and I need to catch it for as long as I can. I don't know if SCAD will accept me at this point. I am hopeful but I still I need to backup plan.
What if?

Fursuits, I guess I have a few questions.
Posted 18 years agoOkay let me just say that I think fursuits are adorable. I've only been to one furry con.. FWA 03 if I remember correctly. Well I guess I just wanted to ask if it's customary to not speak when you're wearing a fursuit, coz' MOST of the people at the con didn't speak.
I dunno' I'm kind of a late bloomer in this community. I keep seeing videos of cons on youtube and now I really want to go and hang out with some fursuiters. Wow, I'm random today!

Okay.. I had a VERY weird dream last night. Dead Sheep?
Posted 18 years agoWe were all SOMEPLACE, I guess they symbolized my family, maybe we were on vacation. For some reason or another I ran away from them and began acting like a feral child. I climbed down inside this crack in the ground and explored this strange underworld that looked like a cave but with a weird.. building that was in ruin from what looked like a fire from years ago. After inspecting it further, the building turned out to be an old day care center with an antique shop next to it. Yeah..
I went inside the antique shop but it was difficult due to the floor being really weak. I managed though and picked up a few knick-knacks that survived the flames. The day care was in much worse shape then the shop but there were these photographs of children on the walls. To my right was a little shelf. I saw a lone baseball cap resting on it and picked it up. Then I left the building and miraculously I was standing on the banks next to a muddy swamp of a lake. There were rusty, demolished cars lying about. I walked around a bit then I spotted a torn up RV that kind of resembled a volts wagon bus.
The door was open so I stepped inside. Strangely enough the bus was full of objects from my IRL childhood, only they were slightly warped in my dream. The old magnets I used to play with, a dresser full of t-shirts I used to wear. It was a very strange feeling for me because I could hear my mind trying to remember. "Hey! That's that shirt my aunt gave me years ago. I hated it then, but oh my gosh!" Things to that nature.
I gathered up my new treasure and stepped back outside. Now there was a line of doormats starting from the bus all the way down to the lake. They had things written on them like, 'WELCOME!' or "Wipe your feet" and many of them where garbled or in different languages I couldn't read. Then I saw a car floating by in the lake. There was a man and woman inside. They seemed to be in an argument and then the car began to sink. They didn't even try to to get out. Soon they disappeared.
Suddenly I heard my Mom's voice calling to me. I turned towards the voice and it sounded as though it was just over the hill. The stuff in my arms now weighed a ton. I tried running up the hill but it was slippery and I fell backwards. When I landed I was laying in a pile of dead sheep. There were flies and maggots all over them. I dropped all of my stuff and tried to run up the hill again but I kept on ending up in the sheep getting covered with flies and maggots myself. Then I woke up.

In a weird mood but I'm really not out to piss people off
Posted 18 years agoI dunno' really where to begin. I get in these moods sometimes, and strangely a lot of it comes from me spending too much time on the net looking at anime fans. I won't deny shit and say that I'm not into anime.. I'm just not all that into a lot of the new shows people are getting hooked on. Also, in saying that, this doesn't mean that LATER ON I won't pick a show up and like it. I just don't like getting into shit when it's THE NEW THING!!! OMFG WATCH IT, HAVE YOU?? No, that's just not me. I like to take things slowly.
Whatever I'm rambling but I don't really care. I'd rather let it out than bottle it up. I guess when you flip on the tv and anime is readily available now it kinda makes me go a little "BLEGH" It just feels like the fandom has changed a lot over the years, and it's possible that I'm just too far behind to catch up, and maybe I'm bitter? I don't know for sure. It just feels like you CAN'T get away from Anime and Manga now. It's on TV, on people's clothes, there's a huge Manga section in Borders now, everybody is walking around trying to speak Japanese, blah blah blah. I really can't tell nowadays from people's screen names if they are really Japanese or not. *Shrugs* Not that I really CARE..
Seriously, I'm not trying to say this is a bad thing, but it can be a little overwhelming. Once again I am speaking for myself only. I just remember being one of the few kids in my area who watched the shows and was willing to pay 20+ dollars for a VHS with two episodes on it. Now, it really is EVERYWHERE!!! And "most of the time" when I try to actually have a conversation IRL or online about the subject I get these blank stares. "What the fuck is DevilMan? HAVE YOU WATCHED NARUTO?!!?" Let it be known that I DO like Naruto, I just can't watch a marathon of it dubbed on CN. Not to say that dubs are bad.. GOSH! I feel like I'm acting like an asshole or something..
I guess I need to just accept the fact that I can;t relate to Anime fans anymore, and it's rare that I run into people that wanna sit down and watch the oldies but goodies x-x
The bitch is signing off now..

THE BASTARD OVERCHARGED ME!!!
Posted 18 years agoI am so fucking pissed right now! I went to NY Thursday-Saturday last week, and ONCE on Friday I used my debit card to buy "ONE PACK" of cigarettes. I went into the gas station, picked out my second favorite brand, and proceded to let the guy ring me up.
At one point I glanced over at the screen and commented, "Heheh, it looks like you charged me 25 dollars almost." I looked at the guy and he laughed back. Then the screen showed a 5 dollar charge. Whatever, I'm not a perfect person as evidenced by the fact that I am a avid smoker, but FUCK I don't check my receipt everytime I walk out of a gas station. I really should have, but I didn't.
So last night I checked my bank account and sure enough it shows a $25.50 charge on my debit from that fucking gas station. I went into a rage and found the number for that particular location. I conversed with the guy for a bit and he told me to bring him the receipt. I explained that I live in fucking Georgia and then he was like, "Oh, that can be a problem." After further conversing with him he told me I have to have some form of proof of the purchase and fax it to him.
So yeah, I'm going to my mom's office to fax the fucker and HOPEFULLY get my money back because I will BE DAMNED if I am going to pay 25 dollars for ONE PACK OF CIGARETTES, and because that fucking place caused me to nearly overdraft when I normally wouldn't have.
Wish me luck I guess ¬_¬

Things are gonna' change soon..
Posted 18 years agoI have decided that I am going to start an exercise routine that involves my punching bag, jumping rope, running, and small weights. I definitely need to eat better than I do.. I mean I'm just a little out of shape and I feel like my confidence will be boosted THAT much more if I pursue all this.
I don't care if this sound weird but I really want muscles. I want to be cut and I want my body to look ripped. This will give me even more reason to STOP SMOKING CIGARETTES! hopefully.. heheh. Anyways, I'm gonna' do it, and by golly I'm gonna' be hot! Well, you know, HOTTER! XD kyahahah.. oh my god I slay myself. Why did I even bother posting this?? BAH, PENIS-CAKES! I'm gonna' go wash this purple dye out of my hair before it stains my face. <3

Went to SCAD today..
Posted 18 years agoI dropped off my statement of purpose and my portfoilio at SCAD today. Omg I hope I make it in. They say that you can send in a minimum of 10 examples of your work but I shot a little higher and brought in 20. I had sveral people help me decide on the first ten pieces but I felt better choosing ten more that I personally liked.
I really wish I had a better quality scanner and camera. Some of the photos just didn't do the originals justice so I told my advisor I could bring in the originals if they wanted.
Oh well, it's in their hands now. I'll prolly know in 2-3 weeks if I made it or not. I'll be going to New York next week for my sister's graduation. I'm going to try to relax now.

Semi-Rant but I love You guys <3
Posted 19 years agoOh boy.. what can I say? Work is rough right now due to the holiday CHEER! Everybody decided that Christmas apparently means to go and fucking live in the mall and harrass all the employees until they snap.
"EXCUSE ME, EXCUSE ME! HEY YOU! WHERE'S YOUR CAKE DOCTOR BOOKS?! ARE YOU LISTENING TO ME??" *Snaps fingers at you rudely* "HEY, I AM TALKING TO YOU!"
"Yeh, I wanna' large, cold thing like they make at Starbucks. What? You ain't Starbucks? Oh nevermind, where is a Starbucks?"
"Yo' toilet is overflowin' in thuh' ladies room.. Sorry bout' dat'."
*walks away scratching ass*
Yeah, I pretty much want to mangle all the 'customers' at this point. We stay open until Midnight everyday so they never FUCKING LEAVE! It doesn't really help much that I moved recently either. I now have an hour drive to and from work, and I never get home until after 1:00am, SO I basically go home to sleep and immediately wake up for work again. Meh, I guess a lot of people do that as well.. *Grumble*
I guess I'm just a little overwhelmed right now. I'm turning 23 on the 28th this month, Christmas is just around the corner, WORK SUCKS, I'm artistically starved lately.. though I did get some painting in the other night, I miss my online buddies and I haven't updated in ages..
I really just need to get the net in my house soon.. maybe after Christmas when I get some $$$ X-X Then I can update here and be merry :3 Good fucking gravy I have so much I want to post >_<! I should probably go ahead and get a headstart on some of the scanning.. maybe even tonight. Blegh, happy holidays mein' friends! <3

I'm Feeling Better Now :3
Posted 19 years agoI've been in hibernation I guess you could say. This whole "moving" business has been quite stressful and it felt like it would never be over X_X whew!
We still have a bunch of crap that needs to be unboxed but in general we are pretty much settled in our new house and loving it very muchly. My Oma is in Australia at this time so my Boston Terror "Jasper" is currently living with us and.. I missed him lots :3 Wee, me so happy.
I plan on making a big update very soon.. well, when I can. I don't have the net hooked up in the house yet, so I'm kinda' screwed right now. I have been browsing ze' art when I can and it's all quite delicious as usual ;3 KEEP UP ZE' SEXY WORK PEOPLES!! <3
Hm, well hopefully I'll be able to leave another note and update soon so.. buh-bye for now and I LOVE YOU ALLLLLLL~

Panic Attacks
Posted 19 years agoI have been suffering from panic attacks lately. One in particular kept me up past 5:00AM this friday and I almost had to go to the hospital. I am having trouble breathing and I'm really stressed out from "attempting" to move to my new home.. which I now find out has a rotten floor in the kitchen, so.. I think I'm going to try and take it easy for awhile. It's terrifying to feel as though you are suffocating x-x Maybe this new inhaler-thingy will work?
Love you guys

House Hunting In Athens <3
Posted 19 years agoNatalie and I drove down to Athens earlier today to follow up on a lead about a house for rent. Well... WE LOVE IT! It's comfortable on the inside, especially the bedroom, and the front and backyard are fenced in, which is fucking EXCELLENT for our puppies. The dude and his girlfriend are waiting to hear about a loan for the new place they're moving into, and if that works out the place is OURS! I'm excited as hell and so is Natty-Baby ^_^ I think Athens will be a great pick-me-up from our current living situation.
The music and art scenes are wonderful, there are tons of cool places to eat, shop, AND drink of course. I can't wait. Yay, what else can I say? Oh yeah.. peace homies :3 <3

Any Georgia Furs?
Posted 19 years agoSometimes I wonder how many furries live in Georgia. In my area... not many I'm "guessing" but I figure near Atlanta there are probably a good bit. Hehehe, Lithonia doesn't really have much of anything I've found, or at least that I am aware of... or care enough to mention? I have been to a Fur convention a few years back in Atlanta, but I left there wondering, "How many people flew out of state to get here?" I was only there for one day, so I didn't get to research the matter much.
Whenever the subject of Furries/Anthro is discussed around me, the general response is usually mockery or people getting weirded out, or telling me some bizarre rumor-story they have heard about Furries. Then "I" end up get teased and try to change the subject. There is no point discussing things with someone when only ONE person is talking.
For me... I do realize that there are some extremes in the fandom, BUT isn't that true for just about everything? Sometimes it's hard for me to feel comfortable with my artwork where I live because I feel like I'm the only one who draws Anthro images "the animal-related variety" in my area, and everyone else around me just wants to make fun.
People laugh at me or give me weird looks when they find out I like characters with tails, pointed ears, horns, fur, etc, and wouldn't MIND if people in real life did have these things. They're like, "Whut?? You want people to be all HAIRY? You think that's HOT? You're weird, Liz."
What the fuck, man, leave me alone. I get sick of those responses. Even when I first started realizing I liked this community, the people I hung out with at the time had "SoOo~ much to say" about "Furries" and their "YIFFING" and many other of their other personal, negative opinions. It made me that much more insecure with myself because I kept finding myself seeking out the community and wanting to know more, and I kept on getting smacked verbally by people I knew.
Hehehe, I guess I just need to be more confident with myself and what I like. X-X Blargh, I can't type anymore. Today's Natalie's birthday and I'mma' go have some fun now :3 Maybe I'll type something a little later.

For me... I do realize that there are some extremes in the fandom, BUT isn't that true for just about everything? Sometimes it's hard for me to feel comfortable with my artwork where I live because I feel like I'm the only one who draws Anthro images "the animal-related variety" in my area, and everyone else around me just wants to make fun.
People laugh at me or give me weird looks when they find out I like characters with tails, pointed ears, horns, fur, etc, and wouldn't MIND if people in real life did have these things. They're like, "Whut?? You want people to be all HAIRY? You think that's HOT? You're weird, Liz."
What the fuck, man, leave me alone. I get sick of those responses. Even when I first started realizing I liked this community, the people I hung out with at the time had "SoOo~ much to say" about "Furries" and their "YIFFING" and many other of their other personal, negative opinions. It made me that much more insecure with myself because I kept finding myself seeking out the community and wanting to know more, and I kept on getting smacked verbally by people I knew.
Hehehe, I guess I just need to be more confident with myself and what I like. X-X Blargh, I can't type anymore. Today's Natalie's birthday and I'mma' go have some fun now :3 Maybe I'll type something a little later.
