I finally caught up!

I just got home from seeing The Dark Knight. I know I’m a little late, but I wanted to wait a bit so there wouldn’t be as many people watching. There still were.

Buuuuuut the movie was fucking amazing!
Yeah, Heath Ledger did an incredible job. He made the joker as repulsive and sickly and insane in so many ways I’d never think possible. And he was foine.


Ugh I’m so tired, I’ll write more later!






p.s. I love Lizzy! AND grape ape! haha

Update!

okay, i'm sorry i haven't posted anything in a long while.
but i think its okay cause i don't think many people even notice the link leading to here on my about me. so i guess, i really don't have much to worry about.
i have family visiting from the philippines, so i believe i will be very busy this coming week with family-themed activities. but, don;t get me wrong. i'm actually excited.


anyway, i'm sunburnt once again!
i spent the day frolicking and sunbathing in venice beach with liz, shell, kels, and chris. of course, it ultimately led to uncomfortable red patches, irritating itching, and embarrassing bracelet tans. delicious.

i did, however, buy some really cute matching bracelets with the best. i would post a picture we took there, but i promised liz that i wouldn't.


so instead, i'll post this:


yes. finally, its done! err halfway done? i finished it a couple days ago and its the first thing i ever did that i'm actually really proud of. i decided not to finish the shirt cause i'm lazy. and i kinda like the whole finished/unfinished thing. i think it all kinda works out together.

http://www.ohhmariee.deviantart.com/ <--- check out some of my work here! i need views. plz.

also, its been brought to my attention that all my art looks sad. and i'm sad cause its kinda true. its actually been on my mind for quite some time which is strange cause i didn't think it would bother me this much.

but i guess i would rather chose to express myself through art than to just draw something just for the sake of drawing something. like, i'd rather have my art focus on the concept than the object itself. and i hope that people find relatability through it, and i think thats really all i want.
i'm not sure if that made sense.
it probably didn't. sorry
alright, enough of this useless babbling. i'm going to sleep.

Old habits, room makeovers, and deviant art

well, i haven't been too busy since my last post.

i would think that this summer would be pretty eventful, considering that this is my last REAL summer vacation. but its really not. for the most part, my days consist of this:
  • wake up at noon
  • walk/jog
  • shower
  • lunch
  • whatever for the rest of the day
  • paintpaintpaint
  • sleep around 3 am

yes, its so sad. and pathetic.

but i guess this summer, i really want to break some habits. just some things that i seem to be doing regularly, that i don't want to be doing on a regular basis. and i've tried to break this fucking habit for so many times now. but lizzy and i are teaming up to stop together. so i guess it'll be easier, maybe. i mean, its easy to stop. its just hard to stay stopped.

also, my mother took one look at my room and decided that it was too messy and too crammed up and stuffy. so she's agreed to let me give it a makeover! i do hope she's serious about it, cause she told me this once before and it never happened. and i'm way too excited now. but i guess the look i want to go for is modern and relaxing. the walls are going to be painted a very light blue, and the furniture will be birch wood. and there will be small accents of red. i know that kinda sounds weird, but i think it will turn out good. everything's coming from IKEA, so it is on the cheaper side, which is good. however, most things do require assembly, which is bad. oh well.

also, i am using deviant art again. i don't use my old account (but i doubt anyone knows what it is) because it hasn't been in use for well over a year. but i am going to be using my new account frequently. if you are interested in viewing some of my work, you can do so here: http://www.ohhmariee.deviantart.com/

well, i am too lazy to write about anything else.

i'm going to chuck e cheese tomorrow!

Summer skin


i hung out with liz last night, which resulted in one of the funnest nights i've had yet this summer. come to think of it, we didn't really do anything that special. but it has left me feeling irrationally great.
we bought evil eye bracelets. their obvious purpose is to protect the wearer of said evil eyes. i'm not really superstitious, but i think that the bracelets are cute and the concept is great. what other reason should be necessary, right?
anyways, my mind has really been in a mess. i have thoughts running through my head but i just can't seem to grab a hold of them. trying to draw these ideas out leaves me frustrated because when i translate them onto paper, the message just doesn't come across the way i would like it to. it is very annoying.
i should also not neglect to mention that i am going to warped again! carson, august 17. i'd like to think of it as my last summer adventure, maybe. i'm quite excited, and i can't wait.
however, i think this summer has gone by really quick! its sad that its now july, and before you know it, i'll be back at school. and even faster, on my way to college. scary.
