Twice in one day!

So, decided to update again today just to share a little bit about me since i haven't really done that yet and I've been considering things about myself so while they're still fresh in mind let's get to it.

 Most people have a favorite subject in school, but after the third grade I've pretty much hated the whole thing. This wasn't because I was a bad student or a slacker, but because of incidents that occurred in preschool I'd developed an anxiety disorder that was triggered by people of authority, which there are a lot of at school. I don't have as big of an issue now that I'm in college though, probably because Professor's aren't going to take you aside and force you to do the work whether it bores you out of your skull or not. They send you an e-mail saying, "You know you've got this grade now, right?" And then let you do whatever the heck it is you're going to do. Less confrontation is involved because we're adults and there is no standardized testing that will reflect on THEM should we get a bad grade.

Wow, that turned into a nice, long, unplanned rant. Anyway, moving on to things about me.

I enjoy the food pasta. Never understood WHY really, but I've decided today that it is the perfect food. It comes in many shapes and styles, yet tastes the same, it can be cooked to be hard or soft and it's not 'wrong', you can put anything you care for on top of it (cheese, cream sauces, tomato sauces, etc), it can be eaten out of a bowl or on a plate, which ever you have or is easiest for where you're eating, and it can be made out of eggs, wheat, flour, rice whatever. So not only does it have varying degrees of yumminess, but also varying degrees of healthiness.

 I have no favorite color. I mean, yes my favorite color is yellow, but I can't REALLY say that I like yellow MORE than any other color. I mean, yellow doesn't ALWAYS look good. Sometimes orange is a better choice for a hat or shirt. As an artist it's very hard to have a favorite color because we're always thinking about how the color is used, how it SHOULD be used, or maybe what should be used instead. I know at least I am always considering choices made when looking around at colors and what that color is on.

And then of course I get to thinking about how the thing is not ACTUALLY red, that it's ACTUALLY everything BUT red because red is being thrown off of the object, which is why our eyes see the thing as red. It get's very confusing and so instead of explaining all this to people I simply say that my favorite color is yellow.

I say that my favorite color is yellow because my favorite flower is a sunflower.

I like pirates... and no, not real pirates. Real pirates were thugs and I would never want to be or know a real pirate (not counting computer hackers, because they rarely influence your physical well-being.) No, the kind of pirates I like are the ones (one really) Johnny Depp plays in movies.

But that may be because I like Johnny Depp. Mmmm... Johnny Depp.... Wait, what were we talking about?

My favorite animal used to be wolves. Then everyone else started liking wolves... thanks anime. I stopped feeling unique and special after a while because I ended up stereotyped as one of those people who THOUGHT that they were wolves, and would go crazy over them.

Now my favorite animal is a hummingbird. I'm connected to hummingbirds in a very odd way. They are so tiny and beautiful.

I hope one day to get a hummingbird tattoo. It will be my gift to myself once I get down to a healthy body weight. It's going to go on my hip. It will be very realistic until you get to the tail, then it's going to have an exaggeratedly beautiful tail that swoops down.

The only jobs I've ever had are acting jobs, both were seasonal, and so it's very hard to give information about them on applications, making it very hard to get a job.

I enjoy watching, drawing, listening to, and listening to commentaries of cartoons. I hope one day to be involved in making one.

One of my biggest stregths as an artist (and as a person in general, I feel) is I'm very adaptable. If you need something drawn in a certain style I will be able to learn that style quickly and draw in it.

As a result one of my biggest issues involving art is consistency.

I don't believe in telling the future through astrology, and my horoscopes are almost always wrong, but I'm so very much the stereotypical Gemini that I can't say I don't believe in it entirely.

I have finally started drawing my own comic series. Oh, look, here it is:  http://devtehfiend.deviantart.com/#/d393hin

That's basically it for now. Pray with me that I do well on my test and that my essay is well written enough that I don't have to FIX IT again! ^^ Thanks for reading! <3
