YOU WOKE UP NAKED IN BED NEXT TO ME.

Using only 3 words, what would you say to me?

Note: If you comment, please copy and paste this as your journal, so I may comment on yours as well.

I need to practice digital drawings more, and since I don't seem to do it on my own, I need YOUR help!

Gimme something to draw, and I'll see what I can do

....that is all.

Hello. Been a while. *clears throat*

So! First big news piece: I dropped out of my engineering university to pursue graphic design (or illustration). Bam. It's not that I was doing bad in engineering; I was actually getting good grades. Nope, I pretty much lost interest in engineering, and a big boy decision had to be made. So, I chose art. *confetti* Wish me luck!

Next: I got a tablet for Christmas, and I've been practicing with it since. It's still not the same as sketchin' with mah trusty pencil and paper, but it's definitely good for fancy colors

So, ah.... expect to see more stuff soon I hope? Yah. Kay. Uh... *poofs away awkwardly*

Sorry for the harsh words. Just a little pissed.

Has anyone else noticed the steady increase of unseen audio-ridden ads on web pages recently? Now, I can expect the more less-than-legal sites to have them, but it's not just them anymore. Deviantart even has one every once in a while.

Ads are becoming way more intrusive than they should be. If I'm watching a video, I don't want a freaking advertisement LOOPING in the background. You can't stop them, and they just play over and over again. I have to reload the page, hoping an ad without audio pops up instead.

I doubt there is a faster way to make customers lose interest/go into a rage than to shove your company's sound bytes into their ears. So, cut it out.

I got Chrome's Flash blocker. I can't take it anymore. Guess I'll have to deal with having to click on videos and other Flash things to get them to load.

I went to Cedar Point today. That's a very famous and completely awesome theme park in Ohio, filled with intense and exciting roller coasters (can I get paid for saying this?).

Anyway, as my friends and I stood in line for one of the rides, we noticed it was getting close to 6pm. Apparently, so did everyone else, because the entire crowd started a countdown. When the count hit 0, everyone started screaming and flailing their hands in the air. At 6:01, everyone then proceeded to cheer, scream, and even cry out of pure joy. By the way, there was probably about a hundred people in line at the moment. To anyone else who was in this line: thank you for making my day.

Cheers for not being dead!
