Work?

I finally got the work creature plushies[profile] ichiban_victory made! Too bad they arrived after I left Ottawa! My familly was nice enough to open the box and free them though. ^^





Yes, there is a set of black works in there. Like Dark elves, black works have a different personnality. But they still look cool ^^

I haven't updated much. I actually haven't drawn that much either. I seem blocked. I lack ideas and inspiration. I guess you could say i'm in some sort of impass. I'm hoping it will unblock soon. I'm guessing this lack of motivation might by linked to that oh-so-jolly time of the month. I don't know if it's the same for everyone, but I often get the feeling that everything I do is bad and/or rushed during that period. Like i'm generally bad at everything and should really stop trying for the time being. Good thing this only lastes a week. 

I brough a lot of work with me though. Doujins, comics, etc. I just need the right mood to get started!

Aside from that, i've been reading Wicked since I got here. I like it. It's a bit of a strange book though, but then again, you sort of expect something strange when it's about OZ. I'm not sure I like the writting style. But I do enjoy the story.

Alright! I think i'm going to go out for lunch. Then return and keep working on my ethnic media list for work. *sigh* This part is long and somewhat boring. And it's so nice outside. Maybe i'll go read outside later.

Oh. I am the work creature QUEEN!

That is all.

Dear gods, can you believe i'm not dead?

Yeah, I know. I haven't updated in a zillion years. But I've been busy and my scanner died. But then, like[personal profile] savvyliterate 's fish, it lived a gain. The light inside it seems to be having a hard time. Yesterday, I realised that I was rather pathetic for I was pleading with it saying "Oh baby, do it for mama, don't die on me!"

So yeah. Dying scanner = bad for school work and internet updates. It seems okay now, and hopefully it will remain in that stasis.



Exam week has begun. I only have two exams, but I have a pile of essays and a photo project to finish before the 14th. One of my exams got done today. The next is on monday. I'm not too stressed. At this point, it's fairly easy...Or i'm too tired to notice and just feel like it's all easy. Oh well. One way or another, I feel peaceful XD

I've been also preparing interviews this week for my internships. I'm headed to Toronto on the 17th, to see Link of course, but also to get myself hired as an intern in an art business for the summer. Internships are mandatory in my program. Gotta do them. I'm glad though, because the places I found look really cool and i'm pretty confident one of them will hire me ^_^

I was a bit confused earlier. I gave a note to my boss saying I could not work from the 17th to the 28th of december because i'm going to Toronto and then Québec city to visit my family. Which is not too bad considering I just work weekends. Although, for some odd reason, she scheduled me to work next week...only on the 17th. I think she misunderstood. I traded the shift, so there's no problem...But still. Everytime I give her a note, it's like she doesn't understand it, or she discards all the info on it and gives me no work for a certain amount of time. She's nice, but I think the blond dye she uses is seeping into her skull.

I need a cut and dye myself. I look like the return of shag. I'm planning to get one soon...on the 15th, so I don't look like crap during my interviews.

For those who wonder: Yes, there will be x-mas comics. I'm also working on some x-mas presents for a few of my friends ^_^ One of them asked for a painting for xmas, and nothing else. I hate when they do that! Pressure...Must...Not...Suck.

Alright, time for bed I think. Tomorrow I need to go take photographs and finish essay number 1.

p.s. 1 :
And last but not least, all this Harry Potter craze is getting to me, so I drew:


I love Luna! I love the actrice they picked for her! (SO cute!) ...Ah and POTC2 is out. *Drools* Cap'n Jack Sparrow.
secondlina: (burn things)


Well, university is officially back on. I'm kinda looking forward to it actually. I'm a bit worried of course because I have a job, another smaller job, homework to do, learning to drive, classes to attend to and an internship to prepare all at the same time. Not to mention cartooning and doujinshis to draw...Well, like Link says, I whine about my workload a lot, but chances are, i'll enjoy every second of it (except maybe every second of my job...)

I got bad news today though.

I've been having stomach burn and indigestion and stomach related problems these last few days. I was wondering about it, and sick or hearing people suggest that maybe I was pregnant (My fucking stomach hurts you morons. How does that make me pregnant...) so I went to the doctors.

Turns out, either i'm having stress related acid reflux or I have blood rocks down there that are slowly trying to block my stomach and eventually will need to be removed...with a scalpel...in a hospital...

Damn.

Considering that even when i'm calm and drawing, the pain is still there and very strong, i'm fearing that it might be the later.

Damn fuck. Fuck fuck dammit fuck.

The worse part, I most likely did this to myself by wanting to resist illness by my own free will instead of with meds.
Yes, i'm an idiot. Who are you? God? *sigh*

I guess i'll go for hospital tests soon enough.

On a more fun note, I finally got a professional haircut and dye for the first time in 4 years. My hair is now black, red and purple. ^^
I also scanned a page from the doujin to post here, to show a bit of progress ^^ It's from the serious story i'm putting in. I decided to choose a different feel for it. Rather then inking it, I'm going to work with pencil tones. It's fun and it gives a beautiful result (this scan does not do it the best justice).

I also though that the pencil work would take less time then the inking...Nope. It takes more.
It actually takes me about 5 hours per page rather then 4.
Again, i'm kindoff an idiot. Again, unless you're God, you can suck it up! *laughs*



The story is about Lina dying and meeting the piece of shabranickdo that is inside her. I read in some Slayers book (I can't recall which) that since one of shabranickdo's parts was sealed in a human, that human could be Lina. I though It was a cool storyline idea and kinda regret nobody seems to have exploited that. So I decided to. hehe.

As another ps. I changed my icon set again. I'm fickle. But change is good right --_ ^
Now I have corpse bride icons (Aside from my timeless "Wind is fashionnable").

I'll end this note here with a drawing for[personal profile] savvyliterate because she had a shitty day.


Oh, [profile] yukiomoni and the bunneh...if you want me to send you prints, I need addresses! Thank you. ^^
