I keep getting spam comments coming up on my page where I have comments waiting to be accepted. It’s so irritating. How’s this: PISS OFF.

On a lighter note… this week has gone by much quicker than I expected it to. I still have my English analysis to do as well as the pictures for my art project, that I’m planning to draw with my wacom tablet. I don’t know how my art teacher is going to feel about me using two different paints on my painting, but I need to. It looks better in oil, but the irises have to be acrylic so I can use the acrylic based transfer on it. Any advice on this?

Had my drama group again tonight. It’s totally weird being the new one… it’s not like starting at a new school. It’s going into an environment where everyone already knows each other and talks about people or teachers you don’t know (well those who go to the same school) and they all know each other. Then I come in and I know I can’t expect everyone to act neutral just for me. They should carry on as usual, but it’s just weird for me. I haven’t been the only new one in a group for so long.

I’ve been working like crazy to hurry along my latest art project for school. I won’t give away my idea yet, but here is my testing of colours.

Please don’t focus on the crappy eyes… they don’t look realistic at all. I was practicing using blue tones as the entire painting will be done with those. It is very simple and quickly done, but it gave me a better idea of what I am planning to do. The artwork will be based on Misguided Ghosts by Paramore, which is the text of the project. I don’t like Paramore at all, but I like the lyrics of this song as I feel it relates to how I’ve been feeling about things in my personal life. I’m going to try and not get all deep now xD

And my photography project is almost done. I’m so slow. The pictures are finished, but the display won’t be ready for another few weeks. My art teacher just put up the prints for the exhibition last week, but only by themselves.

I didn’t actually realise anyone from school read this. Not that it bothers me. Hell, it’s not like I’m writing on here like it’s a fucking diary. Anyway… nothing to rant about really. I’m bloody exhausted -_- I managed to get quite a bit done in Art today, so that’s good. I still need to fill my sketchbook up with painting technique tests that I’ve left blanks for O.O I don’t know WHY I ever did that, because now I HAVE to fill them in! But I have my project idea, which we have to start next Monday. We only have four weeks left, before the control test which I’m looking forward to but also kinda dreading. Hopefully it’s something GOOD. The only hard thing is that when it comes to the actual TEST (after the few weeks of preparing it) we can’t ask for advice from the teacher. Which actually is no problem for me, because I never do that anyway. I’m stubborn, hate being told what to do and never believe anyone except myself. I’m real trustworthy (: lol

I might upload a painting I did of my idea later on to dA. It’s just a test to see how it looks and how I’m going to paint it. At the moment I’m planning to use transfer solution to put the reflections in the eyes separately as I don’t know how I’d paint them, especially with only blue tones xD

So pretty dull blog entry, I just like keeping up to date. Any interesting stories?

I think I have an idea for my latest art project. I’m not going to give it away (mainly, cause I don’t want it stolen ;P) and I’m not exact on how I’m going to make it. But I’m fairly certain on creating it as a painting. Our art teacher told us we could use any area of study, but painting would be best. And I agree. Art schools and examiners tend to want to know that you can paint and do all the basic stuff, so yeah. I’m really excited actually!

Don’t have much more stuff to share to the public. If anything comes up, I’ll let you know.

Well I am currently trying to back up my files, because my laptop’s getting slower each day, making weird noises and I don’t have very high hopes for it O.o. But the stinking external hard drive isn’t working!!! Ahh!! I think I’ve copied two folders and now it’s being all weird. It already took me an hour to get it to open up on my computer at all. Christ -_- Computers hate me.

only the second day of school so far and it feels like years…i know i should stop thinking about it, because it will just seem longer but i’m so excited about moving on into college etc. we had our futurewise results today, which for those who have no idea what i’m talking about, is a number of tests and profiling and interviewing so the “board” can decide which jobs are to be suggested for you. but a lot of the characteristic type thing was so true. it said that i was a person that saw things overall rather than in detail (which is true. when i look at a painting i look at it as a whole, not like the way my parents can stare at one for ten minutes), i need variety to keep interested and shouldn’t focus on long projects (hense why i’m bored of school haha) and then it told be my final job categories to look at are: entertainment, design engineering, painting, photography and general design and they’re all basically what I’ve considered. I’ve considered advertising graphics designer, photographer, fine artist and now a producer or director. we still have interviews next week to go over it and get the final booklet in a few months.

today went much better than yesterday. mondays lessons are incredibly tedious, but today we had art and aerobics so it was much more “interesting”. although i did have my german orals with the german sixth formers that i have to go to with two girls in my class every tuesday and it was a bit weird. they just kind of teach us and go over things, but i felt like i had forgotten all my german and he was doing everything for me. i felt so bad. it’s stupid really. my mum speaks perfect german, we’ve lived there when i was little and it technically was my first language, and i should be good at it considering half my family is german. i don’t get it.

i haven’t finished the photography project from last term yet (it’s weird. i have lots of good info in the sketchbook and so many photographs i like, but getting the final piece together is hard. it’s not like taking a picture and deciding it’s your final piece, it has to be a “project”), but we’ve moved on to the next one and i’ll do the other in my spare time. this project is “Text” and we can use any area of study. i was on fire in class today, i had so many ideas!! i want to do film, montage, graffiti and all this different stuff. i would tell you more ideas but i can’t risk anyone stealing haha. espeically if anyone in my class is reading this! see the picture at the top? it’s a text montage made in photoshop with a photo and it’s really cool. i’m really excited about this!
