Too many things!

Sat Jun 27, 2009, 2:20 PM
So I've had my eye on the 'kick your own @ss' contest for a while and was determined to do a new version of this pic [link] since, as you can see, my drawing skillz rather suck and that was the first thing I'd ever digitally painted too.

But, as always, I'm bad at keeping on a time schedule so I really have no idea if I'll actually finish in time (deadline's tomorrow). Meh. Plus, my drawing people in an anatomically-correct manner hasn't exactly improved so I think I've just given up and am painting the crappy thing I came up with. Haha, oh well. At least it'll hopefully be better than the last one. 0.o

However, I'm also working on a ton of other stuff this weekend (because I actually have it off work - yay!). I'm painting, putting in new flooring, hopefully going to see Transformers (or Up - depends on my friends), catching up on my sleep, catching up on my crochet (which probably won't happen, honestly, but look at this book - [link] - it's the cutest thing ever! So excited to make these!).

Then I'm trying to finish up the painting for the current *color-me-club contest and I'm also still plugging away at the current chapter of Shrine Prostitute. I'm at 30 pages but there's still so much left to write so this one will most likely get split into two chapters. But hey, at least that way the next update will be quick (you know, because I'll have it all written already...) Haha.

But yeah, I'm in one of my random 'creative' moods so I'm trying to do too many things at once. We'll see which comes to fruition ^_-

Yay! A weekend off! I hope you get to enjoy it. ^^ Sounds like you have lots of plans already.

Haha, I hope you plan on giving me a little advance on the first part if you do indeed split up the chapter. DOn't you hate when that happens? I've had to do that before - sometimes there's just so much in your head that it's all gotta come out, word count be damned.

BTW, both of those movies were excellent. If I HAD to choose one, I'd say Transformers (it rivets you to your seat, plus it's longer, so you get more bang for your buck - literally - since there are so many explosions, lol). Up was VERY good, but it made me cry in the beginning. Love the dogs. :]

Wow! Sounds like a jam-packed weekend. ^_^ I wish you much luck on all your plans. I'm just hoping for a few hours to write a bit. LOL!

I know - it's amazing how free time always seems to fill itself so quickly, ne? Always so much to do!

Hope you're able to snag some time to get to your writing as well ^_^
:iconflametwirler:
Yeah, today was rather...unproductive. Oh well. Got a bit done anyhow.

And what I'll probably do with the chapter is just send it to you guys in its entirely and ask if I should split it up, and if so where. I was just gonna do a mega-chapter but then a couple scenes got added that I hadn't even planned, they just kinda came out on their own, so who knows now. Meh.

And yup, I heard all about how Up is sad in the beginning (and what happens) and how it's the new Bambi, and how seriously EVERYBODY cries in it... Basically I wanna see them both but we'll see if that happens. I don't tend to get out to the movies often. (Although, I must say the dogs in the previews were one of the things that made me most excited to see the movie. I just adore random characters ^_- )

So anyhow, how have you been doing? Things settling down and all?
:icondemonsaya:
Well, best of luck and all that. My weekend consisted of: feeding the new kittens, watching movies and taking naps. And that was only yesterday. We'll see what happens today ^^;

If at first you don't succeed, parachuting probably isn't for you...

everyone should contact the anime networks and demand more 'rurouni kenshin'!!:#1:

Yeah - my computer crashed when I was uploading the file so I missed the deadline. *was PISSED*

But I found another contest that's pretty much the same thing so that just gives me time to work it up more and do more of the effects that I wanted to. Yay for not rushing! If you're interested it's down on my fav news.
:iconsorelliena:
Thank you!
