One Way Over-Saturated Pussy Cat :)


Bonus Picture! :) This is the same photo I put up the other day of Sokka lounging under the tree (really he was hiding from my sister so he wouldn't have to go to bed. Mom swears he's like a two year old. But then I guess that's fair since I think he is actually two now...) But unlike the other day this one is oversaturated and awesome because of it! :P I was fixing up the photo for the other day when I accidentally put the saturation to 100% and I thought it looked cool with all the bright, ridiculous colors. So I kept it. :)

Sokka Christmas Cat Strikes Again!


Day 20 - Hmmm...something is amiss with this picture. What on Earth could it be? ;3


Now sing it with my now; One of these things is not like the other! One of these things doesn't belong! xP Sokka the Christmas Cat strikes again! My sister tried to pull him out from under the tree to bring him up to bed, but he just backed up even farther. My dad ended up scaring the bujeebers out of him to get him out. Poor Sokko-Taco. ;3

Q is for Quiet...but not right now



Day 19 - Another picture of our tree after I played around with it in the photo manipulator program that came on my (new) computer. x3 I rather liked the angle of this shot along with how the ornaments were placed. And then I just messed around with the vigenette (whatever that may be...) to see what it did. I haven't posted a largely light photo before.

Alright, so two things that are bugging me right now:

1.) I was just skimming the episode list on wiki for Young Justice. I was trying not to actually read them because I only just finished the first season (in two days :p) so I'm still rather confused by the five year time skip. And what the heck happened to half the team from the first season?!?!?

So that was why I was 'skimming'. Actually, I was using the find command to look for Aqualad, Artemis, and Wally's names to see how long I would have to wait until I found out what happened to them in the last five years that to us viewers equals about, oh....ten minutes. ^-.-^

And then what do my eyes abruptly, forcibly, just latch on to? That Aqualad is evil?!?!? That Artemis dies?!???? Are you freaking kidding me?!??!?!?! Aghhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!! *continue frustrated scream...*

Ahem...alright, so I may be suffering from sudden cartoon-related frustration. But why is it that writers feel the need to corrupt and kill characters after they went through so much trouble to ensure that we liked them?!

Now to be fair, I can't exactly say I am innocent of causing this frustration. I am almost constantly writing. Or thinking about writing. Or ironing out stories and characters in my head. And I have killed characters before. Not because I hate them, or suddenly find them useless, but because I am trying not to let my innate desire for everything to turn out peachy keen override the inescapable fact that not everything that happens is 'good'. What can I say? I have a problem dealing with the wrongness found in the world.

But still. Writers killing characters they made us love rankles me as a viewer/reader. I don't like it. To be blunt-

It bugs me. }:(

Agh! And then I am faced with the internal dilemma of 'Do I keep watching this show despite knowing that something horrifying is about to happen?' or 'Forget this, I'm going to find something that won't make me feel like all people are heartless monsters'.

....*insert more frustrated grumblings here*

Well, I have no answers (and my very silly Dad and Mom have made me laugh so hard that I think I drooled a little on the blanket...) so moving on to numero 2) I have not been able to write anything substantial ever since I got this new computer, so almost a full week. And I know it doesn't sound that long to you, but a full week without any really focused writing is enough to drive me a little bit loco. So...that may also be feeding into my high annoyance at the whole heros-going-inexplicably-crazy thing. Everything seems ten times more annoying/horrible when I can't write...

......okay, so, I feel a little bit better. Although I think Dad's ability to pull strange and random faux-truths out of thin air regarding Aqualad helped in that regard. That and his truly terrible Woody Woodpecker laugh. I swear it sounded like the Penguin trying to laugh like Woody. And not a Penguin from a well-done Batman movie. I mean Adam West Penguin. It was great. :)

Finally Caught Up! Whew!


Day 17 - Woohoo! With this I am finally caught up on my picture a day venture! Yay! Even though, technically, it's one in the mroning and therefore a new day where I must post a picture so I'm still, technically again, a day behind, I don't care! I haven't gone to sleep yet therefore, I am caught up. Period.

As you can see Sokka the Christmas Cat returns! In all his lazy-feline glory...wee?

;p Nah, I love him, even though he's a lazy furball, he's our lazy furball. And he's soft. That goes a long way when you're a cat. :)

Cute 'Lil Christmas Angels


Day 8

Today I present to you...cute little Christmas angel ornaments. :) I was just going to clean up the image, but then I stumbled upon this filter that made it look kind of vintage-y to me and I liked it, so I kept it.

All I did today was read Transformers stories, drink Diet Coke, and listen to Mumford & Sons. All in all it was an awesome day... :3

Pretty Christmas in Pink



Day 7

Some rather pink looking lights and ornament. Tinted in photo impressions. I like pink...

So another wonderously awful day. Yeah, 'nuff said really. I want to put up a photo of Wheeljack today, but I don't know if I have any good ones left. I'll probably look through my photos again, but I honestly can't remember what's in them right now...

I'm going to try and write something sickly cute to try and make myself feel better. G'night.

P.S. - Blahhh.....

The (not so little or tin) Solider


Day...5? I think....

Anyway, I went to the park today and painted for awhile. I started working on a painting of this cute little nutcracker ornament I have (not shown above) in my new watercolor sketchbook. He's looking pretty good if I do say so myself. Hopefully I'll either get him finished tomorrow or Friday, depending on when I can get to school. I saw they had these art pens in the bookstore (not just any black ink pens; black ink pens with waterproof Indian ink I believe! :) Yay! So much easier then me using my fancy calligraphy pen and an inkwell!) and I want to try 'em so bad! That and the school got in some nice looking linoleum too. Sweet! x)

I also have to go get my remaining graduation announcements and my cap and gown came in, so I need to get up there anyway. I'm hoping to use the school studio a few more times before I graduate too, since no one's in them anyway and I have to go up a few more days for graduation stuffs, so I might as well take advantage of the free space while I can. :) The studios share a building with professor/academic offices, so the building's already open, and they keep the large studios unlocked, so I don't feel like I'm abusing the system. Very much anyway... n_n;

I kid, I kid. Anyway, thank you for the nine hits yesterday! This may sound somewhat sad, but that was a nice big spike for me and I enjoyed it! I guess the message is clear. The Internet Audience is looking for Christmas pictures now. Guess I'd better look for some more interesting ones. :)

Have a good nights peeps! Lol, I can't believe I just said that. X3

A Christmas Angel


Day 4 - A Christmas Angel near the top of the tree. Notice she's not the Chrismas Angel. I'll have to get one of her later.

One of my mom's friends asked me to watch her dogs while she goes on vacation over Christmas which is very nice since she pays nicely. :) Her doggies are sweet too and I feel bad when one of their names keeps escaping my mind. O.o But it's Lorney! LorneyLorneyLorney! Maybe if I write it down I'll remember it better.

:) Hope you're all having a good day! And that it actually feels like Christmas wherever it is you are...

Violet-Green-Powder Blue Christmas Lights :)


More Christmas lights off the tree, except photoshopped obviously. Actually I used something called photo impressions I found on my computer. I honestly had no idea it was even there.... >.>

Anyway, I was just playing around and I really liked the mix of colors in this one, so I kept it.

I was trying to break in my new watercolor sketchbooks that I got for my birthday, but the first little metal dinosaur that came out of my watercolor pencil looked...wonky.

Some of you stopped at the words 'little metal dinosuar', but that's okay. You'll meet her soon enough I'm sure...

Anyway, I hope your having a lovely Sunday. And that the weather is cooler wherever you are then it is here. I went out in a skirt and sandals and I'm still hot! Aghhh! Christmas weather come soooon!!!!! T.T

Christmas Tree Lights

Photo - Day 1

Christmas tree lights off of my family's new tree. Day started off good, turned weepy, and the lights are pretty. The pictures didn't come out quite like I hoped, but I think this one came out best. I'll put more up later. Since I've got so many photos just sitting on my camera from this year (and since my computer won't read my sd card for easy downloads) I figured I might try posting a photo or so a day to lighten my camera's load...we'll see how it goes.

I hope you like Christmas lights. And had a better day then me.
