Journal Entry: Tue Apr 29, 2008, 6:11 AM
  • Mood: Agony
  • Listening to: Madeleine -- Bruno Pelletier
  • Watching: Batman Begins
  • Eating: cheerios
  • Drinking: apple juice (yes, I'm 5)
It's becoming increaingly more difficult to make it to the end of the year, especially now that I've officially decided where I'm going. Yep, Georgetown U. it is, and I couldn't be more thrilled. It's taken such a long time to get to this point, but all that bitching and moaning and euro and physics and calc and first semester of 11th grade finally paid off. And now I'm done. I just want to sit in my bed and draw and watch Batman Begins in anticipation for Dark Knight (July 18th, be there!).

I'm such a freaking nerd...Brett and I are going to see Iron Man on Friday, and Andrew and Eric and Steve had somehow talked Katie and me into going to the midnight showing of the new Indiana Jones movies. Though the second they show with fedoras and whips, I'm gone. :D

So, while I wait for everything wonderful to come to pass (i.e. APs to be over, prom, Poconos, graduation, Europe, Dark Knight, etc), I'm going to draw some more!

New projects:

Christian Bale -
For the obvious reasons. He's unbelieveably gorgeous...and he's Batman. I did one of him a while ago, but I'm hoping this one comes out a WHOLE lot better. :/

Kate Winslet -
Without a doubt my favorite actress. I can't believe it took me this long to do one of her....

Ralph Fiennes -
Started one of him a while ago, don't know if I'm actually going to finish it.... I need to be in the mood; maybe I'll go watch White Countess again. ;)

Hayden Christensen -
I've decided to revisit a 6th grade obsession. I'm actually really excited about drawing him.

Corbin Bleu -
That one would most likely be for my sister's birthday in June; she's going through a High School Musical kick. Also, he's adorable.

My sister -
Without a doubt the hardest person I've ever tried to draw. I'm going to need lots of pep talks to get me through that one.

And I want to finish up that painting I've started. It's the first one I've ever done on canvas, but it's oils and I'm trying to do details, so it's taking me a long time cause I have to wait for certain areas to dry (as much as possible).

Anyway, that should last me the summer. Guaranteed I don't do HALF of that list...I have such art ADD.

Wow, long post. Can you tell I should be working on the THREE speechs I have due next week? The NHS one shouldn't be that bad, but I really want my graduation speech to be good. Eh, I'll do it later. Just get me out of this school!






Also, hahahahaha, I can't believe I forgot to mention this before...I've been nominated for prom queen! How weird is that? I don't even remember when we voted, but Kellie comes running up to me beginning of yesterday and is like, You're on the ballot for prom queen! So THAT should prove interesting.... :D

haha, thanks. I try. ;)

Bruno is incredible. I first saw him in Notre Dame, as well (DVD, of course). But then I bought a bunch of his CDs and fell in love with GrosZorchestre, and ended up seeing that show twice and meeting him the second time! He was so sweet, we took so many pictures and he autographed everything. :D

You're welcome! Yes, I first saw Bruno in Notre Dame De Paris. Although it was a DVD of it. Not in person. :( His voice is amazing isn't it? And your art is amazing as well! :D

I can't tell you how jealous I am of your garden! It seems like such a great place to just sit and draw or read or something. I would be so inspired there. :)

I've been studying Spanish for a while now and the SECOND I get the opportunity to study abroad I'm going to Spain. It's just such a gorgeous country.

Hey you! zomg like, one week, right? Call me the second you get home and we'll hang out! You're excited, I can tell. ;)

um, okay, so you have to post whatever picture you want and categorize it as deviantID (click on deviant related first, I think) and once you post it, it comes up as an option when you edit your profile. let me know if it works.

Also, you have to do a chibi me because I want to use it for something. Plus they're really cute. <3

Also, I MAY possibly be working at BN by the time you get home, so you can come hang out with me at work all day. Now THAT'LL be fun. :P
