I last posted on halloween

I'm sort of losing this blog thing. Really.
So here's a quick update:

I GOT THIS FOR CHRISTMAS

I got better at dragons. (left)

Also I'm in high school??? Well, I was earlier, but this is where it begins to settle in. Ahead is PERSONAL SPEAK, just to warn you.

I really enjoy high school for two reasons

a) I can play gameboy in class and at lunch

b) I can finally focus on classwork.

I was mildly bullied in middle school, and in high school, everyone just leaves me alone. This is pretty pleasing, actually!

I also had a personal revelation: I'm really a protective person. Of pretty much everyone. This could either be good or bad. ;_;

Basically, I realized that I'm not jealous that my friends have other friends (I'm quite fine with it) but rather weirdly protective. I listen to them, and judge if they're good people or not. If I dislike them, I begin to worry excessively. Even people who aren't really my friends but associate with me are subjects to my constant worriment. 

Also, I sit alone at lunch. Well, recently someone has been sitting with me, so that's nice. 

I at first sat with a group, but as table moved, everyone moved away. I was content with sitting alone because I

a) Am pretty content with most things that aren't really bad

b) Felt like I was making a STATEMENT. I sit there, playing DS or reading I just think to myself, 

"I am defiantly alerting everyone about my greatness. They admire my ability to sit alone and not be a loser."

 I assume they're thinking, "That kid sits alone. Lol whatever."

One of the loves of my life has become a great bother to me lately. That is, pop culture and memes. I've always been a big pop culture person. I know about memes, right from the best source (ED).  However, it seems pop culture is on the rise in school. Somehow, other kids making jokes on what I used to joke about makes it lose its charm. The reason? Who knows!

If I want to get weird again, I ought to bring up this one girl. I have an innate dislike of her. I don't know really why, as we've had a whopping grand total conversation count of two, but she seems to also dislike me. I might dislike her because she's one of my friend's friends. As I said, I don't care that my friends have friends. But something about her just strikes me. I just really don't like her. 

She's not really that bad of a person. Sometimes a bit standoffish, a bit of a showoff. But it could also be because we are somewhat similar. We both are sort of internet-ing, video gaming girls. We're quite different beyond that, but we both fill the archetype well enough. 

On the other hand, she's really quite popular. And I'm not. (Well, I've been improving. Most kids don't like me more then a stranger, but some people are quite fine with me, and my friends are great.)

And also one kid who used to sit at my table, now sits with her. And this kid is somewhat annoying, but I can't help feel protective (again!) of him .I just feel like I would be responsible if something happened to him (or anyone!) Like I should have been there to prevent them from drinking, or whatever. And maybe I might have sort of liked him once. But I can't really remember.

All of this is sort of reading into the depths of jealousy, isn't it? I don't really feel jealous, but somehow writing all this makes it look like it. Writing all this is also pretty scary. I never intended for this.

Face mask

Retry!

So this is my new one.

I also fixed up Mr. Unique a bit. He needed more stuffing and eye adjustments.

Mr. unique

I sorta skimped out here, but I'll probably get better photos next time.
But I'm making scalemates for all my friends for their birthdays!
And that's all you have to know.

The back of the belly

Here's the body with the two sides.

AND TIME JUMP TIME

He's not high-eyed, short-horned, sideways footed! He's just unique.

Overall I'm happy with this. Because he's soft.

It looks paper-y.
And I know the R's backwards.

So now I cosplay?

I guess I do.
Herp.
I'm really looking forward to going to a con though.
Derp.

So this is my WV costume. Sown by me, who doesn't know how to sow.

I DO have black arm-sock-sleeves, but I couldn't find them.

They're around.

It looks like a potato sack.

SO SHARP MAN.

Also, I forgot that you need to wear a dress shirt under a suit so that you can not look like an idiot. 

I'm sure I have one somewhere.

WHY AM I PLANNING HALLOWEEN IT'S SO EARLY

I ALREADY have my costume planned out. Because Homestuck is awesome, I'm going as a character. My brother, who refuses to read homestuck until I finish Gurren Lagann and beat Chrono Trigger, will no doubt get pretty annoyed at this and taunt me.
OH WELL.

I'm going as the ever so easy to imitate Midnight Crew. Because those zentai suit things cost serious money, I'm just going without. I doubt anyone will recognize me anyways.
I was thinking of being Spades, but since I happen to already own everything I need for Diamonds, I'm going as Diamonds.
All I need is a fedora and a pure white tie (or red, whatevers). And also a diamond put on, but that really shouldn't take that long. And maybe a cuestick, if I can find one. And obviously my lame cat ears, because Diomond is obviously a cat. Oh, and I need to figure out my hair. Like, what am I supposed to do with it?
Did I mention this is incredibly low-budject? All I'm wearing are my regular concert band clothes+my one piece of formal-ish wear. And I'm borrowing the fedora and tie. AND EVERYTHING, EVER.
Until then, this is my current outfit.

(And this is Diamonds, for those who don't know.)

shit lets all be AR

I used this (awesome) guide by the way!

Here it is with just the lines. I used sowing chalk, which works great and comes out easy.

Here's my first painting lines. They turned out so thick, but pretty consistent.

The gaps are filled! I made a bit of a mistake on the lower gap where I painted the wrong one, but
 it isn't too noticeable.

And the words are added! Don't mind my horrible lettering.  I couldn't help it.

Me wearing it. The back is all yellow though, because screw painting the back. I don't have the money for that.

Blog: Let me tell you about Homestuck

Homestuck. It is amazing. Really.

Anyways, let me just tell you about it. It's sort of a creation story but also like a video game at the same time. It's told in a style of text adventure. But with pictures. It's about four kids who start playing a new game, called Sburb. However, it turns out Sburb is something that starts the end of the world.
There are many characters in homestuck. There are even more things to remember about them. I don't even want to go into listing them all. The comic itself is very long, and forms itself through panels, flashes, games and textlogs. Time travel, alternate timelines and alternate worlds make up most of the plot. It's often based in satire of many things, itself included. It can be sad and it can be terrifying. The characters are composed well enough that, even if you don't know them well (or have trouble keeping track like I did) they will grow on you.
I got into Homestuck through maybe a week of reading (like I said, it's very long.) I had first heard of it through the Hetalia fandom. Apparently, there's some sort of feud between the two fandoms. Curiosity got me to look it up, and I lost interest about ten pages in.
I tried again a year later (Just this year), and was hooked. I love the characters and the freshness of the plot. I'm a sucker for setting in stories, and I love the world Homestuck takes place in. It's full of clever plot twists and self-referencing. Also, it has it's own catchy music.
I suggest you don't give up for a while. The beginning starts out slow, but picks up pace maybe round the second act.

Lovely print I seriously want right here. Also, this probably needs a spoiler warning or something. Just don't look too carefully.

Blog: Tf2 screenshots: Round 2

I'm back.
So, I never ended up actually posting Static. This would b terrible, if it wasn't for the fact no one was counting on me to post it. So I'm delaying it for as long as I want.
Also, School. They say it's different in high school, but in truth it's pretty much the same. Except there's so much more work you have to carry around. All the time.
As if I didn't already have a weak back.

But back to something better: TF2. I used to be one of the top players on a big server I liked, but due to me having less time to play I am now down to rank #3000. I used to at #300. This is quite sad.

But anyways again, here's my latest batch of things.

The demos here are Demopan #1, 2, 4 and 5. I was #6.

LOOK AT IT. I COMMAND YOU TO LOOK AT IT.

A heavy sandvich party and a few idiots who haven't quite figured out that it's a heavy sandvich party.

So I know this person online, who's apparently a liberal.

No caption added.

Sentry parties are also pretty popular.

Blog: The aftermath

So. The hurricane swept right by me, and all I got hit with was a very light shower. I've had worse non-hurricane storms.
But then I get some information from friends. It turns out all of downtown is flooded. All I can wonder is: How? Where did all this rain come from?
Anyways, I didn't even lose power. I just must live in a magical safe zone where Irene didn't feel like hitting.
Oh, and tomorrow school starts. The school's being used as a red cross center, but we still have school tomorrow.
They changed the times back an hour, which really messes up my schedule. It took me forever to memorize the old schedule, and now I have to do it again. Also, we get out at the same time as the. gradeschoolers

Blog: OH SHI- Hurricane Irene

As the title might suggest, I DO happen to live pretty close to where Irene is heading. In fact, I live right in the center of the path. It's yet to hit, though I'll do a post when it does.

Anyone who has been ghost-stalking me (Oddly enough) might realize I've been gone.
But no more! Now I am stronger then ever!
I had been working on a farm, doing farm things (Like chasing sheep.) Along on my travels were Bonnie the fighting sheepdog, Bravo with the power of leaning, Taka with the secret identidy of being batman, Speedy with the power of speed, Pippy the small dog, Buddy the also leaning dog, Meeko with the power of really weird fur, Dakota the wolf, Chelsey the bob-tailed and Odin, with the power of heart.
Okay, the main point of that was to show off how many dogs they had. I mean, really.
I really liked it there though. They had a ton of really old books. I picked up a lovely book about the history of the cold war that was written during the cold war, as well as a book about Russia also from the cold war era. It tries to stay neutral, but it reads really sarcastically.
Also, I found that having a TV isn't good for you. I don't actually have one (Shocking!), and during my stay in Tv land I found that it absorbs you right in.
Of course, all we watched was CNN. I typically like CNN and all, but ALL they were covering was Irene. I get it, it's a hurricane. We should panic (calmly). But they really were over-hyping it. And no, the doomsday scenarios didn't really help.

Blog: A brief history of naming

/unrelated

I use a thing called Buzz, which I think doesn't exist. I never hear anything about it.
But still, I can look back at past names and figure out what I was into at the time.
Also, it's weird.

I assume this was 'just a name'.

Might be TF2 related. Can't tell.

This was when I found TF2 for the first time.

Around the time when I found Hogan's Heroes, a sitcom about the most depressing thing ever.

And this must have to do with Hetalia! 

I was thinking of things to name myself on TF2. This was one of them.

Are all of these about TF2? I saw someone called 'I don't care I just want an iPhone4'. And I  thought it said 'I don't care I just want a planet.'

This.

Oh, and also-

You thought wrong, Evil. YOU THOUGHT WRONG.

Blog: A photo post

One day.

A dog. 

I feel like this needs a caption.

"God I'm high"

Another prize for his beloved stick pile.

This isn't me. Who the hell is this, anyways?

This is the most modern of my shots.

Look, it's pretty.

This isn't me either.

Some other day

Sorta kinda almost angelic looking, you know man?

This looks like a stock photo.

This is a stock photo. What is that creep smiling about, anyways?
