Got some laughs in today?

Alright, so today I had one of the greatest days ever. I was the center of attention, but in the good way like being a comedian- which I was during that time. Haha. I have no idea where these Ideas of African Jungles, Homeless people and Drive-thrus came from but my gosh, they were hilarious. I think the funniest thing I did was Identifying people wearing "Mom Jeans." You know, the vintage pair of jeans ordinarily found on moms over the age of 35. They are pulled up around 4 inches abou the navel, and an overly acessed amount of trunk room. Because these pants are so high, the legs of their jeans end an inch above the ankle. (Thank you UrbanDictionary.com!) And you know, this was at my high school so, theres like a plethora of moms 40+ that qualified for my incessant jokes about them. I had what, everyone walking beside my laughing. I had people laughing who I'd never seen before. Then with some quick wit, I made a joke about them and they hadn't realized it.

You know what's funny to me, when people who laugh last at a joke. I laugh not only because of the joke, I laught at the people laughing last. Why? Because they don't actually get the joke. You can tell that they don't get it, because after the punchline, everyone bursts in to laughter. Then 5 seconds later the last person chimes in so he or she won't feel left out. By that time, the joke had died. you can also tell by the look on their face or when they shrug then try to laugh. Sorry but, it doesn't work.

I don't know about you but, I've gotten some laughs in today. Have you?

PS: Don't be shy to post comments, I won't bite, besides, you don't need an account to post them anyway! Please, I enjoy the company, the dry no comment thing is making me feel lonely. Haha.

I'm just a sucker...

Yeah that's right, I'm a sucker...for mind-blowing compostional scores produced for films like Star Trek, Star Wars, 300, and more. Even Video games have scores, one most noted for its musical prowess in Metal Gear Solid 4 which, is Amazing in itself. I mean the music just pulls you into many, many emotions and tells a story.

If I were you, I'd actually buy the soundtracks for some of your favorite movies. I challenge you to listen for the music in the background and see how it enhances the scene. I'm telling you, it's so intriguing.

Go on Youtube and search them. I guarantee you'll find them and enjoy them.

Today Was a Good Day..

You know, like the song by Ice Cube.

Ice Cube's Song. What you thought I wouldn't do this?

Just got a new Blu-ray player and man does it look awesome. The picture and the sound and the colors are so sharp, all you feel is you in the same place the movie is. Yup, saw Wanted on blu-ray, Amazing! All the gore and slo-mo action for everyone. The best part was watching it on a big screen tele with impeccable surround sound.

To further enhance my good day was a win from playing Scrabble, eating leftovers from Thanksgiving and having Sweet Potato Pie with Ice Cream, Whip Cream and SilkNog. FTW (For The Win)!

I almost forgot, today I was looking back, thinking about some of greatest encounters I've had with people. I kept landing at NYLc last summer in DC. That 10 day trip was like no other. I met some of the greatest people ever and we will all probably stay friends till death. Alot of people come to mind, especially my LGM (Leadership Group). We went by the name of Roosevelt. We had alot of good memories in the group; playing games to break the ice amongst us, talking about random topics and from that we chose who would be in the top leadership position for the scenario. I vividly remember the first day. I was as always being myself, talking, getting to know each and everyone there. My roommates were awesome, funny and woke you up if you kinda overslept. Haha. the first people I met were sitting at a table who would soon be a part of my leadership group and then those who I would hang out with too.

There were so many people who I could talk about, but that would take up so much time. So I will briefly talk about a few people. Jeff- My brotha till the end, so cool, and so much in common. See you soon man. Wimbo- Great breakdancer, spits so much game (you know it to be true. :) ) and is an awesome person. Can't wait to see ya! Cody- great roommate (except that one time with the pepsi bottle. Wimbo knows too...), funny and nice to be around. Ariel, Issac, Adam, Tyler, Jacky ,etc- Awesome people, we gotta hang out again. Ariel and Issac, let's not try to get lost like last time. Haha.

Brent- You are the best Faculty Advisor Ever! Keep up the good work. :D

Sammi, Tori, Alycia, Mimi- you gals are wonderful. I remember the Abercrombie thing where you wanted me to dress up. Haha. I can't wait to see yall again. It was fun when I did. :)

I don't know, but I'm beginning to feel so happy after writing this. I know that I can sleep with a smile.

P.S.: To everyone I didn't mention, I want to say that you guys are awesome too!!

November 26th 2009

Back again with a batch of new sketches. Here's one of my favorite actors, Will Smith!

I really think that the sketch looks better than the attempted color render. But oh well, what can you do.

Oh, now this one is special. I was looking at my deviantArt account and saw one of my old sketches, I decided to revamp it using a pose from a manga book. Enjoy!

Looks a lot better huh? I thought so myself.

Tribute. As well as another rant. Win for Win :)

Alright so It being the night before Thanksgiving (well wee hours of the morning of Thanksgiving), the family decided to clean up the house before all the guests came over. Ugh, my exhausted self was not happy. Not. One. Bit. But, because I would get scolded (I really dislike that, especially all of the faces that go along with it. *Shudders from reminecing*), I went along with it. I'm Glad I did because I would have to do a whole lot later.

Besides that, I decided to do a little exercise but with one of my favorite lyricists, Lupe Fiasco. Enjoy, although the whole coloring process was really time consuming. My lack of a graphics tablet hindered my coloring prowess. :)

 I'm happy as far as how it all come out. I love the gradient glasses. If only I had a pair....
