For fuck's sake, love is difficult.
That's all I'm gonna say on that subject for now.

Art stuff: My scanner broke a while back, so I can't upload any pencil drawings, which really bites because I've made lots of those, a lot of which are actually pretty decent. I'm procrastinating on all of the following digital projects:
-Finishing my Monochrome art Collab entry
-Doing a new first entry for the Notepad Drawing Collab
-Getting better at Digital Painting
-Finishing my first Pokemon Gijinka (Misdreavus)
-Learning how to actually use photoshop.
I recently became addicted to Buzzwerd's stuff. It's reminiscent of flapjack, but better and brighter. I've also had an increasing love for Lawrence Yang and Moki Mioke as of late; I'd now rate both of them within my top ten for favorite professional artists.

Music Stuff: Nothing too amazing has come across me. I'm growing to love Musicals more and more, and I've been listening to the New West Side Story (which I saw on Broadway and really enjoyed) a lot lately. It's been more than a month since I picked up Razia's Shadow, and it still has possession of my heart as the best album I own. I discovered Kiss Kiss' second album (having already owned and loved the first one), and I gotta say that it's pretty damn awesome. I suggest it to anyone who likes "spooky" music. It's technically indie emo with violin, but Kiss Kiss doesn't really feel like wrist-cutting music so much as halloween inspired music.

Video Game stuff: Recently been completely addicted to Megaman 10. I've got about 26 hours on FF-XIII, and Megaman is like the exact opposite, so it's a nice game to play in between ventures through Cocoon. I picked up Star Ocean 4, and I gotta say, it's probably one of the most mediocre games I've ever bought. Shame, because the third one was an astounding adventure. I want to pick up 3D Dot Game Heroes REALLY badly when it comes out. Still need to get around to playing God of War III and Heavy Rain. Haven't really played video games a whole lot lately, though.

And finally, I'll leave you with my first attempt at making something in photoshop. I tried out filters on it too. Can't say I'm terribly pleased with how it came out, but it's my first attempt within that particular program. It's dreadfully complex and not user friendly at all.
Here's a little wizard.
