I will be 21 soon.
I don't feel much different, and I sure don't look 21.

I think I may make a one-shot soon though.

I would write something else, but, less is more.

I also just realized that all of these sentences start with 'I'.
I must be egocentric right now. 8D

I'm sorry, Stephen Hawking wins. Reading his book right now~
And now that I think of it, I've only ever heard one song by Lady Gaga at the sushi bar; and I don't really remember if it was any good or not. hmm.

Yes, I /really am/ that detached from modern pop culture. I'm sorry. >.>
It makes it kind of hard for people to find a common ground in conversation with me...

but yeah, I might post soon. I feel like I should post some new art. Problem is that I don't have any new art. And I don't feel I should post my writing here. I'd rather keep my art separate from it.

I feel weird lately, so here's some random spewed out happenings:
-I found some things I want to paint but haven't started yet.
-I've been sketching, but none of it is post-worthy.
-The weather has been absolutely lovely.
-I've realized my self-image has simultaneously gotten better and worse.
-I got to pet llamas at the state fair.
-I've started a savings fund to buy a beautiful house in my distant future.
-I like to think in my head that my dad died heroically in the Himalayas.
-I'm planning on bedazzling my phone.
-Anton Yelchin is kind of adorable.
-It's comforting to know that even after I'm dead, the stars will still be there.
-The child-praun was my fav character in District 9.
-Every time I heard Liam Neeson's voice in Ponyo I thought of Schindler's List. Adorable movie though.

yep.

Maybe I should stop spending all of my income on books.
and reading 3 at a time.
I should spend it on new clothes. and paint.

I've almost completely broken away from my old fandoms and it feels nice. Not that I was really active in any fandom in the first place, but... It feels good to donate all the old manga that I don't read anymore. It'll pass onto some other kid to get inspired or something. I'm also very very picky about anime now. I have to have heavy stuff like 5 cm per second, or light stuff like Howl's moving castle. I can't really watch all the old stuff I used to like. I'm falling out of it. It's kind of sad... but I guess I can't help it. My mind thirsts for something else I guess. Yes, my manga is being replaced by ...classic literature! *gasp*

x3

I've always loved the world of literature so it's nice to indulge in it lately. There's so many books I'd like to read and I'm impatient about it even.xD I'm Reading "The Meaning of Night", "Jane Eyre" and "Blood Sucking Fiends". I want to Start War & Peace, The Vampire Lestat, and I want to reread the LOTR series as well as the Dragonlance series, but that would take ages (maybe I'll wait till next summer to do that), not to mention I have a whole list of books to buy after that...
I should really work on my own stories but I'm very uninspired lately and I'm very boring. My creativity will probably pick up after school starts, because right now, summer has turned my mind into a blob.

I have several fun fairytale prompts in my head that I'd like to write or illustrate, but it's all jumbled and isn't forming right. Only time will tell.~

July. The dog days of summer.
From 10am to 7pm, it's too miserably hot to do anything. And yet I find myself biking to the used book store to collect hundred year old german books that i can't read. yet.

I have been reclusive. Yes, I have.
My hermit tendencies spring up a lot, even in the summer. A feeling that sometimes I like being surrounded by stangers in public, or if it's really bad, I just don't want to leave my house at all. Sometimes I imagine that I'd like to move to some ignored european country like norway to get away for a couple months. I don't know why. I love my friends and family, and I like my quant little town.
I just get reclusive for reasons I can't understand.

No, I haven't been sketching, But I've been painting. A gray seascape with cliffs. Not stormy gray, just spring-rain gray.

I have a slight writer's block, and as a result, I've been doing a lot of reading.
Let it break. let it break. Let it break.
Like glass.
I love those fabulous moments when a writing block is over and everything becomes clear. Illuminated by inspiration i suppose.

Ta all. Hope I can work again soon. Hope I can some out from my hole soon.

Also, I has a tumblr.

As the sun extends it's time in the sky, I can definitely feel the summer!

and I can't complain at all. That lovely warmth as early as seven am and that refreshing iced tea by ten. Even baking under the leafy shade of trees feels essential to the spirit of summer.
No kite flying this summer; Not yet anyways, as there's no barely a breeze at all, save for the artificial kind I can make with a paper fan. Hopefully a bit can pick up from some nice Alaskan winds someday before the days get shorter.
It was a lovely twilight just now, and it really made me wish for fireflies. I've never seen one, and I wish that they could be native to California sometimes. There's something a bit magical thinking about them, like the twinkly fairy lights we have hanging in our backyard trees. But these lights just have electric pulses, unlike the hearts and breaths of fireflies.

In happy news, I've completed my General Education Requirements and can start taking fun classes in college. This would be a time of rejoice, if only I actually had the strength of mind to pick a major. I'm very very fickle. Or, perhaps not fickle as much as bitten by a sort of mock-apathy that makes me contented in any sort of position I'm given.
i don't know; i don't know.
Maybe a counselor will help me. But for now, I just need to paint this summer. I want to paint a lot, but I don't really have anything to paint... or rather, i need the inspiration. we shall seeeeee~~~

Also, can you believe I'm only just now reading Interview with the Vampire? It's really quite excellent. It doesn't even compare to a certain...ahem... very popular vampire book, *cough*Twilight*cough* which was dreadful. I've only just gotten to part 2 so don't spoil anything! I don't remember the movie. xD
I'm also finishing up the Howl's moving Castle trilogy. It's kind of like a much shorter less angsty harry potter series. lol. Although I imagine pretty much ALL of the characters in studio ghibli/ miyazaki animation. xD It makes the stories more brilliantly colored and vivid for me. <3 Howl.

Sorry for a boring journal entry, I'm just muttering/typing to myself with room for comment. lol.

See you later~
Look to the sky for magical rainbows and epic battles of unicorns vs Narwhals!<3
