Hey all, so finally I've gotten around to something I've always wanted to try my hands at....DRAWING MANGA!!Sure I suck at it but at least I am putting my foot out there...So this first one here is of some guy's face.  I am learning from Manga U so am hoping I'm doing ok with it.  You will never believe how hard this is to draw! I've been drying for hours and finally I manage something that look like a face! YAY ME! The eyes aren't right still but at least it looks like someone's face and not just some bloody scratches.  I am gonna keep at th eyes until I get them looking a little bit better.  But these pics are from my sketch pad so they might be a tad fuzzy. Let me know what you guys think of my drawings for an absolute beginning when it comes to this kind of thing.

I've always wanted to try it. I mean I bought the sketch pad like three months ago. Why I didnt start then was beyond me. Anyways, I went to this website and it is showing how to draw them step by step, get a feel for it. I'll never be perfectly good but who knows? At least I am learning something new and it's challenging. When my writing gets to a stand still like it seem to be doing a lot lately, I'll just pick up my sketch pad and doodle a little. But th eyes are the hardest parts to draw! OMG! This one righ there is of a happy face. Th emouth didn't come out to right and the eyes are different size but I got the emotion right. The nose is 'perfect apparently but everything else is a tad off. 

I am so happy right now! I actually accomplished something I set my ind out to do!! This year is going to be a good year for me! Ijust know it! This was on my resolution list from last year and I am finally getting around to it.

So this next guy is supposed to be pissed off.  The eye brows need a little bit of help but other than that I say I got the eyes a little bit better and the nose is right.  I was trying to draw a head around his facial features but so far can't seem to get the chin right. But for a first try this isn't bad.  I kept forgetting how to draw the mouth or shading in the wrong area but I finally managed to get it out and on paper.

The shading is a tad rough and hard but I guess it's to be expected. I am not using the pencil they said I should *shhh* *grins* but I guess once I keep practising it'll get better. The next pic is of some guy being all stubborn--but I kinda sorta messed up the eyes.  Couldn't draw them properly--keep getting the wrong shapes to them and shading so after a bit I gave up.  I think I got the eye brows right along with the nose, mouth and kinda the chin.. .And then last but not least, the frowning guy.  I haven't gotten a chance to try my hand at the smirking guy yet, but I will at some point. Ok the frowning guy was the second easiest one to draw (followed by the angry guy). His eyes aren't perfect but everything else looks right. I think I drew his lips kinda too long but all in all a good attempt I think!

I am so proud of myself. Look at me go! After the weekend I've had I am glad to just chill and have some drawing fun. My body is exhausted because I had so little sleep this weekend. I am still trying to catch up on sleep. Now after I've tired myself out with my attempt at drawing manga, I must now proceed to watch The Mummy. I could use a good laugh you know?

Anyways, I'm going to add a video to this blog. It's one of my newest favorite songs called "Shakin it 4 Daddy" by Robin Thicke featuring Nicki Minaj! I LOVE this song. So it's not the official video because they don't have one yet, but enjoy the video anyways. And if you wanna get down with your bad-self, turn off the lights, climb on the bed and dirty dance to the beat of this tune! I absolutely recommend it!

Anyways, Hugs,

And now--It's time for my yearly OSAP/School Debacle

So, I started school on wednesday and already I had issues. So they make collecting your student loans MUCH easier by making students make appointments rather than joining some long as hell line. Better, ok, I give them that. Then I assumed that I had gotten enough loan to cover everything but my books and I'm cool with that. I could scrounge up and extra couple of hundreds to buy my books. So, with my appointment, I walked into the student loans office quite happy until I walked up to the front desk. The lady there told me that not only am I short, but I owe the school three hundred and sixty dollars and I should hurry and pay it before late charges are placed on my account. I was floored.

I know I suck at maths but holy shit I couldn't be off by THAT much--could I? So, a few days before I tried ordering a cesaer salad from pizza pizza with my school meal card and couldn't. I tried ordering the same thing from swiss Chalet but couldn't. They kept on telling me I had no money on my student card. Then I checked my account and it told me that I had no money on one section of my account but nine hundred on a second section and two hundred and change on a third. I was confused as hell because that third section shouldn't be there. So today I sent an email to food services asking them WTF?

They replied saying that because of the kind of meal plan I had, I had no Flex section (this is the section that I can use at some restaurants around my city). I was like "erm, that's not right." Walked my ass all the way over to the office today - I dont mind. I just use that walk for my daily fifteen minute walk - and asked what in the hell is going on. Turns out, they gave me the WRONG meal plan. They gave me the meal plan that cost twice as much as the one I need. I was PISSED OFF! I mean how dare they change what I signed up for? So not only did they give me the wrong meal plan, they charged me for the wrong meal plan, which added a little over two grand to my tuition fees, which caused all my student loan money to be signed over to the school which means I had no money left over for books! Can you believe that shit?

So now I am waiting for them to bloody fix their screw up and apparently it's going to take ten to fifteen business days for it to be fixed! I am so annoyed because it took less than that to completely fuck up my damn fees and meal plan and it's going to take that long to fix. I swear to god it's a good thing this is my last year or I would have transferred. *sigh* sometimes I wonder why we even bother with school. It's a whole bloody mess all the bloody time and there's very little we as students can do about it. But we need the education - they know that so they screw with us as much as humanly possible. They change things and say nothing about it. They move classes from where they are supposed to be to somewhere completely different and not say anything, they change books, add books, charge us for things that makes no sense to a logical person what-so-freaking-ever.


But on the bright side, I am taking this course that would have cost me a little over a hundred dollars for the book. Turns out, I don't need it! So that's a good thing, right. Anyways gonna go torture Deb now *giggles*
