Quicky updates!

Sorry for the lack of posts. School has started up again so I've been pretty busy. Not only with school, but with Captain Bones as well. I've hit chapter 19 and page 112! YAY!
Also, I met with James (at the Wisconsin tournament I mentioned back in June) again and finally got to meet Josh. Here's a quick picture.

I also met Joe and Matt. My friend Brianna (in the picture with me) told Joe she liked his face and it was priceless. It took him a full five seconds to respond. I smile every time I see this picture, but I also seem to look out of place. Maybe it's just me or the fact that I'm still trying to realize that both times I met James, it wasn't a dream. It almost seems like deja vu. Then again, maybe that's just because my friend reacted to the news of my trips with "You two are going to have beautiful children!" and I always reply with a tentative thanks.
Also in updates, I did cut my hair short. That's not as exciting though. And I went to comic con, but more on that later.
So time for the doodle of the day!

I doodled another version of this woman in debate class, so I drew her again, but this time with color. Ms. Teagarden said she liked it, so I'll probably send her this with my homework.
-Cheers!

Artsy films, my "type"/ new unhealthy obsessions, and procrastination

So I'll be quick with the first one. I have 3 days to make my Hawkeye costume and 5 days to make a corset that I only have the pattern for. I have always been a procrastinator, but this is pretty bad even for me. Not to mention school starts in less than 2 weeks and I still haven't read a book and done an essay on it for AP European History.
Now to my new unhealthy obsessions! I'm now madly in love with Noel Fielding, Wuthering Heights by Kate Bush (I have Mr. Fielding to thank for that), and I've fallen in love with Dimitri from the animated movie Anastasia all over again. I know it's sad, but come on. Every little girl had a crush on an animated character before! Some continue into high school... Anyway, off of that stunningly animated con man. NOEL FIELDING! My god this man is brilliant! I've kinda notice that I'm beginning to develop a "type". You know when a person of the opposite gender uses the excuse "you're just not my type" as a nice way of telling you "not interested at all" but it always seems more rude? Yeah. "Types" exist. Mine just happens to be older guys with dark hair, light eyes, leaner, and a funny or sweet personality. Examples: Harry Lloyd, 28, dark brown hair, light green eyes, tall and skinny. Noel Fielding, 39, dark hair, light blue eyes, fairly lean. Jonas Armstrong, 31, brown hair, green eyes (I'm pretty sure), willowy. Bam. Now there are exceptions like any rule, like Russell Howard, Chris Evans, and Jack Gleeson, but it seems to be a common theme I've noticed.
But here's what I want to talk about. Bunny and the Bull. I just finished watching it and I was blown away. It's wildly inappropriate with all the sex, full frontal nudity, and cussing, so don't watch it with your parents. But it was insanely well written and it was filmed in a very artsy way. So this guy Stephan basically goes through his trip through Europe with his friend Bunny and this girl they pick up, named Eloisa, and how he got to the OCD state he's presented in (in the beginning of the movie). The transitions are really interesting, like how they transitioned to the Swiss hotel by using a snow globe, and the sets were so creative! They made a bar out of cartons with milk bottles and highway overpasses out of newspaper! Well, it looked like it. It was too cool! And when you see the bull, it's a machine! It's basically a steampunk bull! It was so amazing! It made me laugh so much and this is definitely on my list of favorite movies. And it left me with a warm fuzzy feeling when it ended. And Noel Fielding is in it. If that doesn't sell you, I don't know what will.
So that's it for me! Oh wait! Doodle of the Day!

And to go with the whole Noel Fielding theme, it's Noel Fielding! I drew this at the pool when I was there for 5 hours. I also drew Scarlett Johansson as Natasha Romanoff. I'll post that one later.
-Cheers!
