I am so tired.

I wish I could go to sleep, I can hardly keep my eyes open.

But it is only 5:45...

SPIRT WEEK!

So next week we have spirt week at my school.
We are also having a ton of new contest thtat we have never had before.

We have wacky tacky day, blast from the past, favorite charecter, gender bender day, and class day.

Since everything is a little different this year, instead of dressing in school colors on Friday for spirt day, all the dirrerent grades will dress up as something themselves. We, the eigth graders get to dress in my favorite color, orange!
Gender bender day is always the one I look foward to, beacause of ocurse, it is hilarious to see girls dress like boys and boys in dresses and skirts.

We are having this thing called powderpuff football on thursday, which is totally new. It fits for gender bender day, that all the grades have girl football teams and boy cheerleaders.

We have a contest to draw the school mascot (The school will change the picture of our mascot to the winner's picture) which I will definately enter (I know I spelt definately wrong) even though a bulldog may be pretty difficult for me to draw.

Also, I am running to be homeconing princess. I got ten people to sign a sheet of paper, and they put my name on a slip of paper (A ballet?) to vote. I feel loved beacause a bunch of people, even those who I don't hang out with said they voted for me. (One girl was chanting 'Vote for Brooke!' at the begining) and when they called my name and I stood up, a bunch of people cheered for me. So I feel very loved.
(Sorry for gloating)

ABRUPT SUBJECT CHANGE.
There is so much new stuff that we are doing this year that I do not think I can keep up with it. There is a whole bunch of stuff you can buy to win your grade a class day (Not so sure what this entitles, but I bet it will be good) or something. I heard something about dressing up like our school mascot....but I'm not certain about that either.

School on Saturday and Manga Overload

Okay okay, so I had school on Saturday.
..........
*crickets*
I know, A great way to spend your weekend, but today, Monday, I have school off, so it all works out I guess.
I went to sleep at about 7 p.m. Friday night, so I slept around 11 hours and didn't miss much sleep at least. Also, we caust a few mice lately.
On Saturday night, I went to an etiquite (Spelling?) dinner with my church stake. (That's a whole bunch of the different church wards in our area together.) I saw this one girl who sits across from me in art class, who I didn't even know was my religeon. Also this guy in my theater class is her cousin.....so I was pretty amazed.

At least saturday was an early release day, so school ended at 1:30. When I finally got off the bus (My bus ride is an hour long. Seriously.) I heard someone yell my name. I looked behind me, at the road, and sticking her head out a car window is a girl from my science class. She then yells, "I know where you live!" XD

I also saw one of my friends at the library.

OKAY OKAY OKAY. So the etiquitte dinner was really neat, and I saw a TON of my friends who I haven't seen since camp in the summer.

We watched this big slideshow of pictures, and it was all really neat.

SPOILER ALERT

I've been reading a lot of manga lately.
I'm sort of obsessed with 'LOVE*COM'.
'LOVELY COMPLEX'.
It's so cool!
I just finished the 9th book, and I've been going to the library often to look for them.
I think I'm going to cosplay as Risa Koizumi for Animazement. (I know I say things like that a lot, but this time I'm serious.)

Also, last night I read the first two books of 'Twin Spica', which is also really cool. I would love to see someone cosplaying as Mr. Lion, but I don't think the series is that popular. (?) But I may be wrong.

Also today I read the first book in the seies 'Arisa'. THE AUTHOR ALSO WROTE 'KITCHESS PRINCESS' SO YOU KNOW I'M GOING TO LOVE IT. Her art has improved SO much since the first volume of 'Kitchen Princess'. It's so pretty! The plot is really good too!

Speaking of 'Kitchen Princess', I've read up to book 6. IT'S SO SAD!!!!
I read it on the bus to school, and I seriously cried during the whole book.

I really want to go to a book store right now.
I also read the first volume of Azumanga Daioh. It was pretty different since it's all four-panel comics. I've already seen the anime, and I have to say, I sort of like the anime better. The book is great, it's hilarious, but I guess I like the anime more since I saw it first and....wel... (the art is a little better....) and the charecters have voices and everything, so it's so much funnier. I mean, Osaks wouldn't be as funny unless she had the hilarious English dubbed voice with all the pauses.

I mean, the artist is AMAZING. I love her art work in Yotsuba, but since it's a four-panel comic with.....no backbrounds and not much detail, the only really amazing art are the big drawings at the beginning of chapters.

The likenesses between 'Azumanga Daioh' and 'Lucky Star' are uncanny.
They both started out as four-panel comics (I belive) and got transformed into HILARIOUS animes with English dubs.
The scharecters are very alike as well.

Both have reckless teachers who have HORRIBLE driving skills and not much common sense. (Miss Yukari and Miss Kuroi)

Both have the super innocent short cute girls (Chiyo-chan and Yutaka)(Though I suppose you could also compare Chiyo to Miyuki)

Both have the tall, silent type girls ( Miss Sakari and Minami)

Both have the older man who is attracted to the younger girls (Konata's Father and Kimura, though Kimura is definately was more so. He scares me....)

Okay, I'm out of good examples, but You get my drift, right?)

Okay, also I had to look to FIND these examples, but it's true!)

I also read the book 'Sayonara, Zetsubou Sensei' and it's pretty good too.

Okay, farewell.

I just found this post from a long time ago.

Okay okay, so I had school on Saturday.

I know, A great way to spend your weekend, but tommorow, Monday, I have school off, so it all works out I guess.
I went to sleep at about 7 p.m. Friday night, so I slept around 11 hours and didn't miss much sleep at least. Also, we caust a few mice lately.
On Saturday night, I went to an etiquite (Spelling?) dinner.

EDIT: Okay, so I found this in my blog drafts. I had totally forgotten about going to school on Saturday. I don't remember it. This happened a LONG time ago apparently. Sometime during this year, near the begginning. The ettiquitte dinner was with my church stake and it was really fun. :)

ARTARTARTARTART

So I've been working on drawing a lot, especially now that I've had two snow days. (Even though it only snowed about 1 inch or less. And freezing rain.)
So I've been working really hard on lighting. Here's a picture I'm really fond of that I did.



I'm planning on making a sequel to this picture of a girl on his side holding his hand. I'm not sure If I'll get around to it though.
I've also been doing this challenge called '100 themes'. It gives you 100 themes (Who knew?) and I'm drawing a picture for each one. My friend is doing the challenge too, but is writting poems for them. The meadow one up there was for the theme 'Light'.
This one was for the theme abandoned:



It was really good, but then I shrunk the file, and I didn't save a larger copy. It looks way better in full view, but now it is a little fuzzy. Here's one I drew for the theme 'Innocence':



If anyone reads this, please comment!

So my new years resolution is to become a nicer person and be less self-centered. On new years eve I volunteered with my friend to feed the homeless. It was really neat. She came over and spent new years eve with us.

I love the Vocaloids.
I've been listening to their music all day....and yesterday...
I really love Rin and Len.
And the Story of evil.
IT'S SO PRETTY.

And now I sort of want to cosplay as one of them for animazement....
Umm...
Oh right.
I'm writting a story.
It's a graphic novel.....
I only have one chapter done, and it's just a rough draft....and It's not as great as it could be.
