A little old

A little Camera Fun

So I made sure I put my logo on all of these and I have to admit they turned out a lot better than I had thought they would. Thank you to Hames :)

Shopping

So I tried on clothes, but I only bought the blue shirt and a few other things. I just have to take pictures of it. Here's what I've got. :)

Chocolate Baths and Cats

Well it's Friday for me and that means chore day. As in cleaning the house and making sure it looks good. Even though my parents will be gone for the weekend. It's not bothersome. Rather I think I have grown to like cleaning so long as I get to do it at my own pace. I brought back something from Germany called Seelentroester and it's a chocolate bath. When I walked into the bathroom so that I could take a bath I found some nice muddy cat prints all along the bathtub. It's not that this is abnormal. We actually have a cat that when you leave water in the bathtub she'll go swim in it so it was just a funny moment for me. I'm probably running the most boring blog in the world since I don't put up many pictures, nor do I have the most amazing layout. But it's nice to have a place to type out my thoughts as they come to mind. Although I do have a livejournal for that I haven't visited it in ages. Anyway back to my original thought, after cleaning the pawprints I ran a bath and put the aroma therapy stuff in. It's labeled chocolate but it smells like chocolate covered oranges. It makes me rather sleeping so I guess the aroma therapy part about it is right. Its supposed to help relax. Anyway I advise anyone who just needs to have a bath to relax to invest in it.

Random

I wanted to discuss an issue that was presented to me a while ago. Cyberbullying. There are people who are weak against bullying, and it's even worse when you start to attack them online. You don't know their circumstances, and if you're the bully I doubt you really care. However, I can tell you from the perspective of someone who used to be bullied that those words can drive someone to try and commit suicide. If asked today I could give you a list of times when I tried, or when I felt so worthless that I wanted to. I know most people don't care about what they say to someone on the internet. Especially now that there is this nice button to put you on anonymous. Yet I hope you realize just how damaging your words can be. Someone went onto my sisters page and started to insult her under the anonymous button. Luckily my sister isn't as weak as others. The girl made it a point to single out her scars and the way she looks. Verbal abuse, whether said in person or typed up online is serious. I'm a person with little to no self esteem but when people go out of their way to insult me, it kind of fires me up at first and I fight back. Sadly once the argument is over, I go into depression. I've cut before, I've tried to hang myself, I burned myself, I've done a lot. But my family and friends are the ones who help me push through. My point is that no one has any business attacking someone. If you're a bully, well I hate to say I wish the worst upon you, even if that is true, but I want to say that I hope you learn before it's too late and you wind up alone in the world.

Completed

So I finished all the boards, took a while, but thanks to the help of my boyfriend things got done quicker. :) The picture above is Rapunzel's hair in the making.Yes we used yarn.

This is our completed Rapunzel, I think the little kids did a great job when it came to coloring everything. :)

A close up of our Rapunzel. I had higher expectations, but this was the best that came out of it. Sadly.

The Cinderella Castle with her mote and a fountain. Sadly my mom didn't want Cindy and just wanted the castles. If you look on the castle I'm sure you can find the smiley face one of her students drew.

"Cinderella Penguin" I've never heard of this version, but it's pretty much the same thing just with penguins. So they got an ice mote and snow on the outside of the castle. We couldn't do it on the inside of the castle because the castle is white and then it would blend in with the snow.

The cute penguin Cindy and Prince. Yes their faces are taped on.

Our Sleeping Beauty, she probably took the longest. She also lasted the shortest with her roses.

This is why our roses didn't last so long. They're moveable and the children pull them off. All that hard work for nothing. :(

Close up

The Princess and the Frog, I had a brain fart when I used the green background. So the Frog received a rock to sit on. The students kept mistaking her for Ariel because of the red hair.

The rest of the pictures were for fun :)

Delaying

Alright so instead of working on my drawing as I initially planned I have been working on castles at my moms school. I may put up pictures later to show how it all turned out. It's tedious and for someone who can't handle the screaming of children I feel I am doing a pretty darn good job. Lame as that may be, I don't like being touched and those kids love to touch people. It's enough to drive me insane. Sadly. There are quite a few quirks to doing the castles though, I get to be creative (within the limits given to me) and I get some quality time with my boyfriend. The kids get to draw in the bricks and it was funny when I started putting up a castle yesterday I saw they drew a smiley face. It was the Cinderella castle. Not the kind Cindy story the one where the sisters cut off parts of their feet and get their eyes pecked at. The irony almost made me die laughing. Kids these days. I did a Sleeping Beauty one as well, already they took roses off of the wall. Darn kids! Well hope to get pictures today so I can post them up soon.

Drawing

I'm back to drawing. My hobbies tend to cycle constantly and I'm trying to do a lifelike drawing at the moment. The pictures above were done by me. I was learning how to use my Bamboo dock and I think I've been getting better. I may put up the picture I am currently working on up at another time. With the details I wish to use, and then the coloring it may take a few days.

TV Shows

Okay so I've been watching two shows "Grimm" and "Once Upon A Time." I'm quite entranced by them. This may be because they are both a little reliant on fairy tales or things of the sort. I'm quite an enthusiast when it comes to fairy tales, things like Beauty and the Beast, Cinderella, etc. The last episode of Once Upon a Time that I watched the sheriff was killed, and I was just growing attached to that character. I really hope that they somehow bring him back but I doubt it since the mayor crushed his heart. I won't bother going into too big of detail since I am sure I would confuse most people. I do recommend these shows. Grimm will spark your interest if you like a little bit of horror or mystery. The horror is pretty minor since it's only the looks that may be frightening. I don't think anything else is really scary about it and it's not gory.
