Letters

Hello, reader. Today I'm going to describe myself using the letters of my name.

- creative, calm, carefree
Creative is used loosely because there are times when I'm not very creative at all. / Calm because I'm rarely loud or hyper. / Carefree speaks for itself.
- happy, hopeful, humorus
Happy because even though I get sad, it doesn't take much to make me feel happy. / Hopeful kind of goes with happy in that I try to stay hopeful even when I feel worthless or unhappy. / Humorous because I've been told I'm funny.
- elaborate, erratic, ethical
Elaborate because I tend to overthink and over-write, adding lots of detail. / Erratic(meaning fickle or unpredictable) because one minute I'll be really happy-go-lucky and the next minute I'm staring out the window at dark rain clouds wishing I was somewhereor someone else. / Ethical because I have morals.
- lonely, lazy, likeable
Lonely because I'm sort of a loner anyway and don't get to hang out with friends much. / Lazy because I always procrastinate and never want to get my priorities done -- I hate responsibility. / Likeable because I guess I'm likeable?
- loving, loyal, lost
Loving because my heart swells at every possible good or bad thing that happens to my friends and family and I just can't help but love & care about them a ton. /Loyal goes with loving because I'll never abandon my friends. / Lost because I'm not really sure where I'm going yet but I'll find a way eventually.
- erudite, efficient, envious
Erudite (omg divergent reference) because I feel like I'm very intelligent in certain ways and well-read. / Efficient because whatever I do I'll do the most and best I can do (especially if it's something I love to do). / Envious because I often feel like many people I know or know of are more successful or happier than I am; envious kind of speaks for itself too.
Thanks for reading!
Now you know a little more about me.

Favorite Bands


So the other day (it was a Monday) I went to a morning class and it ended up being canceled but those of us in the class didn't know it so we waited for about 45 minutes until someone finally told us our teacher wasn't going to arrive.
So for like 45 minutes or longer I had an interesting conversation (mostly one-sided, since I'm more of a listener than a talker) about music...
...among other things such as penny loafers and Star Wars.
Even though I'm a pretty quiet person, I just couldn't interject because one boy in the class was filling every second of the silence in the room.
And I was really fascinated by how quickly he came up with his witty remarks... fascinated because usually he's quiet when lots of people are around (the teacher especially).
I'd never even seen him talk to anyone.
So as he's chatting it up, I make a remark about his haircut looking a bit like a Luke Skywalker haircut and he laughed.
And then after a while he asks me what kind of music I'm into. So in my head I was freaking out (*OMFG*) because if you know me, you'll know I get the most excited to talk about music.
I decide to say the cliche "everything but Country," because OF COURSE my mind would go blank the moment I was put on the spot.
Then he decides to ask the simplest, yet most difficult question ever, "what's your favorite band?"
Obviously I say "That's impossible." But then after thinking about it, I gave him something of an answer "Okay...I'll tell you a band I'm really into at the moment: Muse."
And he replies, "Muse...that sounds boring." So I play a Muse song and ask "does this sound boring to you?"
He thought it sounded 'generic.'
So then he asks if I have a favorite song. Impossible, too.
"Play a song you like, then," he requests.
So I play a song by MGMT and someone else says "listening to their music makes you feel like your on acid"
...very true, very true. xD
Later he tells me to list my top 5 favorite bands.
Well that's gonna be hard, I thought.
So I decided to throw the questions back at him. "What about you? What kind of music are YOU into?"
He gave me a similar answer I gave him how he wasn't sure, so I said, "what genres do you like, then?" He makes it very clear he doesn't like Pop, Rap or Country.
Now this is someone I can be friends with. (Tbh, though, I have no problem with Rap or Hip-Hop)
After we finally realized the teacher wasn't coming, we all headed out to the “courtyard˝ I suppose you could call it and sat at a table. I set my stuff down first and the two boys next to me in class join me. I'm usually a wallflower, so this experience was kind of new for me.
We continued talking about music and he demanded that I guess his favorite band because I "looked like I could read minds." Not having a clue, he told me it started with the letter A.
And even though I'm a music nerd I had to look it up.
I came up with Avenged Sevenfold (A7X) after 3 or 4 other guesses like Aerosmith and The Allman Brothers Band... and because he gave me the second letter.



All in all, it was an eventful morning. The best Mondays are "Music Mondays." 


Hiatus


Hello, reader! How have you been?
I'm doing grand, thanks for asking

It's been a while  (over a month actually), so I thought I'd give you a quick lil update.
It sucks when you're still in school and you wanna do fun october/halloween stuff not school ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhh. This year I'm going to be Haruhi from OHSHC, though.
I'm going to 3 parties & I'll be deejaying at least one.

I've already gone to one so far, and it was a hecka fun time! 

















Also I tried a cool recipe with my friend a few weeks ago: Mountain Dew CUPCAKES
They're pretty frickin' fantastic!! I'm thinking I should make some for one of the parties I'm attending.

Besides halloween/October-y stuff, I've drawn quite a bit in the past few weeks.














In other news, have you heard about all the Youtube scandals?
I sketched a little pencil drawing of Jason (veeoneeye) about a month ago, but I've already trashed it. What he (and multiple others) did is sick. If you'd like to know more details click here or just Google "veeoneeye allegations."
Now, don't get me wrong, I hope these accused youtube celebrities can redeem themselves and have a happy life, but like the rest of the community keeps saying, I don't think deserve their channels anymore, much less respect.
If none of this made sense to you, don't worry about it.

That's pretty much it for now, besides the fact that today was lovely.






























Hope you all have a wonderful rest of October!!
