Avatarding

Because it makes me happy!

I like all ships, so sue me.

This is repetitive of the last twenty posts, BUT... I really need to get my head in the game. Lately, I seem frustrated and impatient, and people like dqbunny waste way too much of their time calming me down. I made a list of my ongoing projects. It makes me feel busy, but reassured since I can see the evolution. I really need to figure out why i'm so angry all the time lately so I can stop. I have issues and I'm always pissed off when I see people. That's no fun. I know there's a fun loving Isa somewhere in here. I just need to put her in the forefront and leave depressed Isa in the back. It's only been 2 weeks since I left the weird job, so i'm probably still EEEEEH because of that. But I really hate this. I hate being so angry all the time. :( A couple of people told me I should go see a professional to deal with my frustration and depressions, and maybe I should.

Well, enough of whining. I do too much of that too.

Well, tomorrow, there's Namesake sketching. That always puts me in a right mood.

Also, yay confortable work shoes! I bought some great shoes for the whole standing-all-day deal my new job is all about. So long, back pains. You will not be missed.

Watched The Gobelet of Fire with the boyfriend. Mc Gornagall is my favorite professor. EVER. Way to be amazing, Minerva.

Also, did you guys know that there's this French comic for pre-teens that is basically a steampunk version of "the little princess"? I'm not kidding. Sarah Crewe's dad is the head of a robot/android making company with a factory in India. The story is pretty much the same as the original novel (that I loved as a kid) except with cool background events. It's a really interesting adaptation and it's quite popular i'm told. I'm thinking of taking photos of the books I read for work (yep, i'm required to read what we sell to help customers. How cool is that?) to kinda share this experience. In this one, the story is pretty good (the novel is excellent after all, for pre-teens). The steampunk setting kinda helps a couple of the more... dated elements to seem a bit fresher and less offensive. The art is really, really influenced by manga and kinda weird-looking, but it gets better as the books come out, so at least it's evolving nicely. Check it :

Oh hey, that's really neat. I should pick that up, try and read it in French, see if I can do it.

Also, you're allowed to get cranky about work - you have a lot to do! in addition to working a job, you have dozens of art projects, both paid and unpaid! You are allowed to grump, hon =3

Also, aw, duel ship love. I still say that Aang loves Zuko and Katara the most, and only loves Katara juuuust a bit more because she never sent an assassin after him, and only for that.

There's a couple of bookstores in Toronto that carry and order French comics such as the Labyrinth. I really recommend the Labyrinth because they are super friendly and they ship books, so you can order things and have them shipped to your house for fairly cheap. http://animationroadshow.blogspot.com/

Hahahah, those guys as an Ot3 would be hilarious. I can see the assassin argument coming back once in a while. "Well, see, it's all about perspective. If I sent an assassin after Azula, she would have enjoyed it like a greeting card."

It's so true, she would. "Aw, Zuzu, you thought of me! How sweet!"

And frame the charred remains.
