Dude. DUdes. I dunno why, but I got this huuuuuge hankering to be at a convention right now.

Maybe it has to do with the Metalocalypse high I'm on. No, actually, that's completely illogical. I guess except for the fact that I really want to cosplay something from Metalocalypse. But that is completely irrelevant. Maybe not. Somewhat. Sort of.

ALA is the next con most people seem to be going to. Can't afford to fly down to LA, though, so that's out of the question. I think I'll set my sights on AOD in SF. Anyone on my FL going to that one? Might go to that one? Worst comes to worst, I'll just sit at my table and draw shit and make money. Oh wait! That's what I do at EVERY convention! Hah. Ahahaha.

No, but seriously, anyone thinking about AOD?

HEY. HEY GUESS WHO JUST BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF STANFORD.

I'm just making this post because I found this badass fucking gif on /co/ and also I feel like playing.. DDR or something.

Which is dumb.

I still have a story to finish.

Plus illustrations, which I want to finish tomorrow.

And then two essays over the weekend.

Life is... dildos.

BUT HEY CHECK OUT THIS BALLS TO THE WALLS ICON.

So yeah, Gaycon and Halloween come and gone. Let's see...

( Conshit )




( Comicshit )

I am very tired. And a little depressed. I dunno why. Maybe it had to do with that really depressing Booster Gold/Blue Beetle/Blackest Night dream. IT WAS SO DEPRESSING.  AND SAD. OH GOD I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT  TO EXPECT WHEN NOVEMBER ROLLS AROUND. AAAAAUUUUUGHHHH BLUE AND GOLD ;______________________;

Okay that aside...

I just spent a buttload of money on print stuff for YCon. Feels bad man. I find it very unlikely that I'll break even in the auction, but I spent all this money already, so may as well give a go!  I'm ditching class to finish my artstuff by tomorrow so I can toss it over todarkenedwings and friends to drop off at YCon.

Speaking of which, when is everyone heading over to YCon? 

I AM SO TIRED AND SO DEPRESSED.

I don't feel like working on Robin anymore. This sucks!  I just want to take a nap. Maybe eat something. Drawing will make me feel better.

Okay so I have a longcatlooooooong picture of superheroes at a gay ass super slumber party, DickxTim, and one more picture to do.  What should I do that will ensure maximum biddage and money-making without completely selling out and doing bullshit KH/Naruto/Bleach faggotry?  I was thinking SupermanxBatman or CapTony. I don't know.

I think I'll start on that drawing now. Or eat something. Yeah, eating will be good.

Hah! Like I actually ever recovered!  ( I think?)

Anime Destiny tomorrow! Yes!  Got all my Artist's alley shit done today! Yes!  Midterm passed! Yes! Fun weekend ahead! YES!

Also, my tunic pattern came in this week. YES! Now I can start working on a Robin mock-up! YYYYEEEESSSS!

Okay, so now time to whore out!

YCon bros- Anyone want to do me a favor and be my proxy for the art show?  I'm only going to the show for one day (most likely Sunday, since that's when the art show ends and the live auction starts)  and I'll need someone to submit and hang up some stuff for the art show. I'm thinking maybe three different pieces?  Yeah. Basically, you just have to go there sometime Friday or early Saturday morning, fill out some auction slips and hang up my stuff. You'll have my eternal gratitude and maybe I will buy you lunch or dinner over a moonlit table :3c

SEE YOU COOL CATS AROUND~

GOOD JOB CAL. THE ONE TIME I ACTUALLY SIT DOWN TO WATCH FOOTBALL, YOU GO AND LOSE HORRIBLY AND PLAY A TERRIBLE GAME AND EVERYTHING. I EVEN BROUGHT SNACKS. CANDY. CHIPS AND DIP. MOTHERFUCKING SWEDISH FISH, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD. I FUCKING LOVE SWEDISH FISH! GODDAMMIT, CAL. GODDAMMIT. YOU'RE THE WORST BOYFRIEND EVER.

You're so bad that I'm going to totally ignore our date tonight and go out with Ryan Reynolds instead. And to make it WORSE, I'll bring Lady Gaga along as third wheel. YEAH. LADY GAGA. BECAUSE YOU DESERVE IT, CAL. YOU SO FUCKING DO. FUCK.

Nnnghhheeeheeheeheehee Ryan Reynolds is hosting SNL tonight. It'll be my first time watching that show in YEARS.  But it's okay. It's worth it. Yeah, even if Lady Gaga is the musical guest and yes, even if I do dislike her.

Fuck youuuuuu Caaaaaal.

But Yaaaaaaaay Ryan Reynolds!

All right, I'm feeling kind of romantic and I promised myself I would do this while getting all sentimental on the BART because romantic things happen on trains and stuff. Just ask Journey.

But maybe that sentimentality was really just euphoria from actually making my way across the bay successfully and not getting crazyshit lost. Oh god using public transit feels so cool and such INTERESTING people board! Especially at night! It's fantastic.

But yeah, I said romantic, right? I'm gonna be fucking romantic.

I'm going to list a bunch of crushes I used to have! Of real people! OH SHIT! So here we go!

( Shit just got CUPID )

So there you go! A chunk of my soul. Nice.

Would you watch it? I would watch it. Mostly out of pure narcissism .

SERIOUSLY I DO HAVE A STORY FOR YOU

But before that, boring stuff like how I'm pretty sure my Epic class is going to be Legendary because the professors are great and I'm liking it a lot already, so that's a keeper.  Also got into the European Novel class which is AWESOME because I totally went to the book store and gotpretty copies of the books I need to read. Madame Bovary in particular is this lovely little hardcover with pretty pages. Good times. Also got my comic fix there. It's harder to read comics with roommates becauseI can't vocalize my delight while reading, which is pretty much what  Dark Wolverine did. 

Hnnnghhhh Ms Marvel/Daken is my new, twisted dark sexy awesome het OTP to counter all the super cutesy fluffy het OTPs I have.
Also, Hawkeye/Daken is GOOOOOODDDD TIIIIIER. SO AWESOME.

Eeeeeheeehehehehahahahahaha oh god so that one panel when like, Daken's going "OH YEAH I AM REALLY FEELING THE BURN" makes me laugh like crazy. It's such a douchebag toolbro line. I just. It makes me giggle like CRAZY. Why is he such a cocksucker oh my god Daaaaken I love you so hard.

OKAY! Well. Yeah, so, things are getting better, I guess.

Oh yeah, so who wants to go see Taking Woodstock with me? toggy , is there a theater around Mills, or do you want to mosey over to Berkeley? I know we have a bus that goes directly to Mills, so I could try hopping that. Aaaaanyone else?

Wait, did I say story? I totally said I had a story.

( SO HERE'S THE STORY )

OH WHAT A BEAUTIFUL DAAAAAAY

I'VE GOT A BEAUTIFUL FEEEEE~~~LIN'
EVERYTHING'S
GOING
MY 
WAY

OH CURLY HOW I WISH YOUR EXUBERANT LYRICS COULD APPLY TO ME AS MUCH AS THEY APPLY TO YOU.

( stuff )Oh Berkeley, please don't kick my ass too hard. ;;

Righto, so it's been a while. Probably because absolutely nothing's been going on lately, but hey, things are kind of picking up.

INSIDE! A bunch of topics and a lot of introspection and stuff. It's all a giant lump of text under the cut anyway, but whatever.

( MOVIES! )

----------

( COMICS AND LITERATURE! )

------------

( SCHOOL AND STUFF! )
Major props if anyone actually made it through all of these ramblings. Hoshit, you's a true bro.

Don't get into anime or manga. It was a huge waste of time, you didn't miss shit, you would've been able to spend four years at Berkeley with a higher self esteem and a greater sense of accomplishment than you have right now (in the future) and you might've been less socially awkward than you are now (in the future).

Comics are better. Plus, if you had gotten into comics earlier, maybe you would've been a better artist by now.

Oh, and for godsakes, get a fucking PS2. I know, I know, we grew up with Nintendo, it's radical and all, but trust me, the later generations suck balls.  Stop at the N64, wait for a PS2, then get that. It has great games. Really. You can trade Super Smash Brother Melee for Metal Gear Solid 1~3 and you would.not.regret.it.at.all.

And get a goddamn job, seriously. See? If you weren't so obsessed with anime and manga and gaiashit and the intenet and all that, you'd be out making money.  Comics are excusable because you'd have to have money to buy and enjoy comics (trust me, you don't do it for anime/manga) so they just serve as further incentive to have a job. 

Oh, actually, One Piece was good. Stay with One Piece.  And Kaiji and Akagi and Baccano and... ALL RIGHT WELL, JUST DON'T GET INTO INUYASHA, OKAY? THAT WAS THE BIGGEST WASTE OF TIME EVER AND NOTHING HAPPENS. THE END.

-Sincerely,
A future, much more cynical, considerably more jaded you.

I just got news that a girl from my graduating class was killed in a car accident.( Read more... )

Comic Con? Oh yeah. Now with... NO PICTURES! WOO! I'll get to those later.

But in short: Comic Con was like spending the night with a beautiful,exciting, unforgettable woman. You know, the kind that you pay assloads of money for then spend the next morning/week lamenting the money you lost and the diseases you got from her and will inevitably go crawling back to because she was just that fucking amazing.

Not that I've had real experience like that, but I've read Frank Miller comics so it should basically be the same thing, right? Yeah!

Onward!

( A one! )

( And a two )

( And a three! )

Oh god, what an adventure.
