Wow been a looong time.

Here are some recent works that I actually like.

Well, excuse my last entry. Teehee. Personal matter.

Anyway~

Well school has been going by pretty well. Its actually pretty okay to have my American History class my first period. Turns out, as long as its not Math I seem to do better LOL. Freshmen year. LAWL. Failed mid-cycle DX. Managed to get a S at the end, saving myself from getting booted out of honor classes. Sweat.
I was hoping to get an AP class, buuut theen I realized, if I did, I’ll have to go to school at 7:10 AM and leave later than normal =_=; Hell. I can barely wake up at 7:00. COUGH.

Still starving each day. I have a feeling I’ll be 75-85lbs by the end of December. Sigh. I hate my class schedule.

Chinese has been going fine. . . Mrs. Wang still tries VERY VERY HARD to slap me out of my lack of self-confidence. It’s hard. LEAVE ME ALOOOONE!!! T___T She calls on me everyday. I want a break! At least I’m improving. My sophomore Chinese year did not go very well. Mr. Zhang is not a bad teacher, but sometimes . . . I feel like I have learned NOTHING.

I hope I can catch up soon during Junior year. I can read fine, but I hate tones so much, especially the 3rd and 4th tone. I get tongue-tied. I still have to finish up my oral quiz on Monday. I’m not that nervous about it but I have a feeling she’ll be correcting my Chinese tones. It’s mostly my fault though. I haven’t practiced enough yet. As much as I want to, I keep getting distracted. I can’t help it.

I’m worried about the regents and S.A.T.S. I feel like I am no where near prepared for them. Chinese is the one that horrifies me the most though. I don’t think I can go through the ORAL part of the test. I am, like I said, not confident in my skills whatsoever. I can probably read, but I cannot think up a conversation with proper grammar on the spot. I’ll probably hyperventilate  and  turn purple or something. DX Man. I hope I get through this year. I’m already bugging about the lack of food.

Anyhoo, Art.

Bah.

I hate it. I don’t like mixed media. I don’t give a damn. I hate drawing graphic novels. I love drawing faces. They’re so much fun, but I hate looking up photos of random people. I think I’ll try to draw Angelina Jolie though. My sis loves her. I like her too. She’s so badass. Cough.

I’m thinking of a Woman Warrior type theme. . . You know. . . one that fights for her rights and voice. I’m along the lines of abuse . . . and she turns for help and gets her SOB of a husband behind bars. She inspires many others to stand up and fight back against those who oppress them, (aka MALES dun dun dun) blah blah..  . . Sort of like the book, Speak. :P I love that book. It’s about a girl who got raped at this party and she kept quiet about it but she did something at that party that got everyone to hate her. I am not going to spoil it for you. :D But it has a happy ending.~ Yiipppiee for that.

God I hate this assignment =_=;

Painting was what I was anticipating the most, but its going by far too slowly for my liking. Mr. Rosado is starting out with watercolors first and teaching how to block in the shadows then work outwards into the forms of the face. THE PLANES! BAH I should have practiced the facial planes first! It would have been easier. However, I’m still in my usual way of drawing. I cannot handle my brush right T___T. Must try harder~! I want to create beautiful pieces of art~! Then again, I’m not going to an Art College~ I’m going to try and focus on my major subjects. It’s going to be harder, but at least you don’t have to sit there and stare at the ceiling or wall, trying to get an idea. =_=

FML.

Agh.
I got my class schedule this morning and I was full of mixed emotions.
A few were excitement because, ” I GOT LAST PERIOD FREE. I GO HOME EARLY,” and sadness because now I starve during the day. No mid-day free period. One thing I like about Murrow: it’s chiiill with the classes. They let us choose what we want. Of course having to make sure we get the right amount of classes to graduate at least.
My first class is American Humanities – S.S.. Agh. I’m so going to fail it. I can’t handle early classes very well. Sophomore year was easy since it was art first class. I just pretty much dozed off in there. Lawl. Glad the teacher likes me XDDD!! Then it’s “ADVANCED STUDIO ART.” *dramatic music* Honestly I’m not enthusiastic about it. I don’t like mixed media at all. Too much gluing and trash diving. “FIND BEAUTY IN EVERYTHING!” is the motto. -__- Pfft. Astronomy. . . I’m actually quite looking forward to the following classes. I really like to learn about the constellations and I REALLY WANT TO VISIT THE PLANETARIUM. Chinese. T___T My teacher remembers me from Freshmen year. She was asking who doesn’t have a Chinese name in Chinese of course and I raised my hand hesitantly. She repeated it again in Chinese, “有没有中文的名子?” I think I got that right. Ms. Wang burst into a OMG I remember I gave you a name already? Did you forgot?? <– She actually said that. Its not my grammar =3=

I didn’t forget. It just that the name you gave me was for JULIET and not Julia. -3-

She then continues her rambling about how beautiful the name was and how famous I will be. “ROMEO AND JULIET!” *cry* How embarrassing.

The school day went by pretty quick. Thanks to my final period which was my free period or OPTA as it is called in Murrow, I was able to go home at like… 2:05 or something. It was a special class schedule today so the last period began later than normal. Other days it’ll be at 1:50. Woot. Go home early but starve the whole day. Jee. I wonder what should I hope for. Mid-day opta or End day opta?

I never knew how hard it really is to color like those dA anime artists. I just love how they cg. Most of them seem to use Sai Paint Tool and Photoshop. Agh. I’m so horrible at Sai. I just can’t figure out how to work the brush options. You think photoshop would be harder. At least I can actually color well in PS. Sai is just so very different from what I always use. I wish I could separate the tools, colors, layers, etc from each other and drag them around like how I can with PS. It would be so much easier to work with especially since I work large nowadays. I think you can do that on Macintosh but I haven’t tried it yet. Well I am not going to give up on Sai even if I am dubious about improving anytime soon. Well its time for bed. Night night.

THAT WAS THE MOST ACCURATE DRAWING EVAAR
