I'm very bored....

...so I decided to do a video tag I recieved from Nate while I was gone. I won't be tagging anyone, if they want to do the tag, they can! just let me know you're doing it, I'd love to see what you post! ;)

My first video is a Bionicle vid. that I have always liked.

Love you, Matoro... :P

The second is FMA.

O.O

The third is FMA again- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_dk5m4FnT8

NOTICE: I DO NOT HAVE ANYTHING AGAINST CANADIANS. I'm sure there are good ones and bad ones out there, just like American's. I just like the song, the vid, and like the fact that there is a decent song to the tune of American Idiot, which is very profane and I wish had never been made. But then, we wouldn't have the great tune that Weird Al put Canadian Idiot to...Oh, well.

The fourth is The Girl Who Leapt Through Time. A movie I loved. I would recommend it, if you don't mind about 4 instances of h*** and d***. Other than that, it's an awesome movie with a great plot. The main character reminds me of myself. :)

And, as a little bonus, I have a video I made. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRJE-fTodHE

Also, I named my fish. The blue one is Mizu, the orange one is Kaji, and the green one is Midori.

Mizu=Water

Kaji=Fire

Midori=Green

I love them a lot. ♥ Cute fish.

Have a happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

Sidewalk and Cake Art!

Well, if ya'll read my mom's blog, Timeless Trinkets, you know that yesterday, May 13, was my little sister Lillian's 3rd birthday.
Lillybee loves Strawberry Shortcake and wanted a Strawberry Birthday. Well, my mom thought it would be a great idea to make a cake with Strawberry Shortcake on the front. At my Strawberry birthday about 4 years ago, we just printed off a picture and put it on the cake, peeling it off after I blew out the candles.
But earlier this year, I was searching for pictures of Edward Elric and found this on Deviantart-

http://lutra-gem.deviantart.com/art/Cake-Edward-Elric-97257711

She (I believe it is a girl) did this cake of Edward out of chocolate!!!

The tutorial is here-http://lutra-gem.deviantart.com/art/Chocolate-Painting-Tutorial-65522877

This was a really cool idea, but my mom didn't want to use chocolate for a three year old's birthday. So we used icing. First we iced the cake white. Then we followed the directions for transferring the image. The icing was too sticky to set the image on, so we put the cake in the freezer. We had to put in in the freezer at intervals as we iced it. My mom did the black outline, I colored the inside. It took all day, but it was tons of fun.


We used homemade drizzle icing for the colored parts. It worked out really well.

Pictures-

Without Candle.Original Coloring Sheet.

With Candle.

The day before I was outside on the carport watching Lillian play, and I decided I'd do a picture with chalk. Not just a doodle, but a real picture. I hadn't drawn Edward in a while, so I decided upon him. Keep in mind Edward is the second hardest FMA character for me to draw.
(Guess who is the hardest???O.O )
The only part that is easy is the fact I don't have to think too hard about his body proportioning. He's short like me!!!! *hides hoping Edward won't find her and kill her ears with ranting*

Here are the pictures-

His face got a bit distorted because I wasn't looking at anything. His head and hair turned out odd, too. But I till luv him.♥ :P
The only thing I had to come inside and look at was his mouth. I couldn't remember how to do that smile. Also, I had to take out a wet washcloth to erase with. I'm sorry, but I can't live without my eraser!!!I'm getting so good with his eyes!!! *happydance*

And the mouth looks good. It all looks good, for chalk.

Also, I have a few more drawings. Just let me take pictures...*goes and gets mom's camera. Then searches frantically for drawings. Takes a zillion pictures and screams at the camera for saying each and every one was bad quality.*
Ok, here they are!!!

Envy, copied from the front of my FMA novel. He looks too happy. He's supposed to look more cruel and prideful. Maybe he's happy cause he's the only bad guy I drew. Or maybe because I did well on him, first try. :) Smiles all around!!! :) :) :) :) :D 8D
Roy Mustang, also copied. I seriously cannot get him right. Now I bet you've guessed who's the hardest. T.T Must keep practicing!!! *Puts on Tohru Honda's determined look*>:|

Winry Rockbell. A bit different. I wanted to try to change her expression from the original.

And this is a picture of two children. Guess who? Remember my post back on December 8th when I mentioned Haley Rose and Elliott? Well that's who this is modeled after. I saw them walking up my Granparents driveway and got inspired to do this. They're made to resemble Edward and Winry ever so slightly. But Elliott and Haley really did look like that.

And finally, everyone will know what Starr looks like.
STARR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!8D 8D 8D
I FINALLY DREW HER!
YES!

Also, my latest story chapter is the post before this, in case you haven't read it yet. :)

A new thing I did a while back is adding tags to almost all of my posts. Any posts with my story in them will come up if you type in 'story' on the blogger search bar at the top of my blog page.

I hope you enjoyed reading this post or just looking at the drawings. Have a good week!!!!

I seriously need to post more often...

Yup. So this is going to be a random post if there ever was one. A very random post.
To start out the random things that have happened to me lately...



I was in the Wal*Mart a few days ago looking for Fruits Basket manga. And I saw the never-ending Naruto manga there. Well, by some chance I just opened up one of the volumes with Sasuke on the front. Because the picture and scenery looked kinda dark for Naruto. I opened to the part where Sasuke and Itachi are duking it out and could not for the life of me tell the diference between the two. Because everybody has grown up so much in Shipudden, no? lol, I ended up watching a few episodes of Shipudden last week. And it's just as long and drawn-out as Naruto. I just hopped on over to my dear Wiki and read up on everybody, then watched episode 50 or so. Because Sasuke was in them. And I am utterly confused about the whole series and wish I hadn't become interested. Someday when I have time I'll watch it...it's funny that you said the same thing to me Fantasy! I feel the same way now!!!
On another note, I really like the ending theme. It's very well done for an anime that is so drawn out. I wish I had more TIIIIIIMMMMMEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :P

My mp3 player battery went dead and I haven't been able to find any more batteries so I am waiting for this one to charge. And wishing I had more time to write and draw rather than do math.



I want time. Badly. More time means more time for me to waste. You see, I must finish math soooooooon and clean my room sooooooon or I will not be able to make pound cake. I really wanna make pound cake. But no, MATH MUST BE DONE!!!!!ROOM MUST BE CLEANED!!!!! More like clothes to be shoved into hamper and paper and pencils need to be organized and...I CAN'T FIND MY INKING PENS ANYWHERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 8O

And other things have been going on. I went up to Christiansburg to go to Barnes&Noble and get some manga, as they had none but Naruto and Pokemon and Vampire Night at Wal*Mart...(whatever Vampire Night is, the cover looks and the name sounds a little...scary. O.O)

So I bought one FMA, and one Furuba. FMA volume 7 and Furuba volume 9.

What I thought of FMA volume:I haven't read it yet. :P It is hiding in a random place away from my brother Shadow. Because he will read it and spoil it all for me before I get to it. >:|

Well, I did eventually get to it. But I think I skipped a volume. I guess I'll figure that out in the anime. Because I really don't have the money to get another FMA volume for at least a month.

It's hard anyway, reading the manga and watching the anime which is so much like the manga. It's super confusing.^Ed and his father, Hohenheim of Light^

What I thought of Furuba volume:
1. Why did Ayame HAVE to be on the front...
2. I like Kureno...VERY MUCH!♥
3. Stop being mean to Kyo. Don't cage the poor guy up, he hasn't done anything to you. HE'S YOUR OWN SON!!!!!!!!!! >:(
4. Momiji: "Tomorow we set out with a BOOM!!!
Get ready for some VA-VA-VOOM!!!!!!!!!!"

YAHOOOOO!!!!!! LETS GO MOMIJI-KUN!!!! I"M COMING BEACH!!!! STAG BEETLES!!!! FIREWORKS!!! ^.^

5. Saki...poor Saki...
6. Stormshelter of Terror is...TERROR!!!!!! HARU YOU JERK!!!!!!! YOU MADE ME SICK!!! And I was eating while I read that...

Overall-10!!! It was great!!!

^From left to right: Bottom row-Arisa, Kyo, Tohru, Momiji. Mid. Row- Yuki, Hanajima and^ ^then Hatsuharu at the top!^

So. I have nothing to ramble about but anime. Because I'm a crazed anime freak. I watch anime on AnimeFreakTV, and that just makes me an even worse anime freak. Not that it's a bad thing!

Your head would hurt from the sound if I rambled about our house. It's LOUD!!!!!!!!!!!!

Your heart would sink and you would be depressed if I talked about the weather. It WAS gray!!!!!

You would lose your mind if I ran my mouth about all my problems. They would make a LONG POST. Wait, this is a long post.

So anime is all I have to talk about. I hope I haven't bored you. I have some artwork I did a while back! Also, these are small, but just click on them and hopefully they'll open up and will be zoomed in really close. SO YOU CAN SEE ALL MY MISTAKES!!!! 8D
Takeshi from Exo-Force. I promised him back in the fall of last year I would draw him again when my talent improved. He does look pretty good. I like him all dressed up.

And Ryo from Exo-Force. I had promised I'd draw him, too. Here I drew him in a normal T-shirt. A little too scrawny, I think.
He originally looks like this-
So I'm still not doing my best job ever. But this is the first style of drawing anime I ever attempted, so mine and this style are slightly similar.

And then the really good one. WINRY!!!!!! I FINALLY DREW HER TO MY EXPECTATIONS!!

The picture is a bit foggy, and the inking is not my best, but I wasn't aiming for PERFECT, I was just having a good time. Explaining why they are all on notebook paper. :P This one has a lot of personality. Winry is all dressed up, looking really girly, but yet, she cannot put down her wrench!!! Or maybe she's just armed to hit Edward with it...lol.

*is tired from long post and pictures*



Also, today is my dad's birthday, so I am going to be cleaning the kitchen! Must get back to that, so SEE YOU & THANKS FOR READING!!!

An April Day and Story

An April Day
By Longfellow

When the warm sun, that brings
Seed-time and harvest, has returned again,
T is sweet to visit the still wood, where springs
The first flower of the plain.

I love the season well,
When forest glades are teeming with bright forms,
Nor dark and many-folded clouds foretell
The coming-on of storms.

From the earth's loosened mould
The sapling draws its sustenance, and thrives;
Though stricken to the heart with winter's cold,
The drooping tree revives.

The softly-warbled song
Comes from the pleasant woods, and colored wings
Glance quick in the bright sun, that moves along
The forest openings.

When the bright sunset fills
The silver woods with light, the green slope throws
Its shadows in the hollows of the hills,
And wide the upland glows.

And when the eve is born,
In the blue lake the sky, o'er-reaching far,
Is hollowed out, and the moon dips her horn,
And twinkles many a star.

Inverted in the tide
Stand the gray rocks, and trembling shadows throw,
And the fair trees look over, side by side,
And see themselves below.

Sweet April! many a thought
Is wedded unto thee, as hearts are wed;
Nor shall they fail, till, to its autumn brought,
Life's golden fruit is shed.

I put the poem up because it's my inspiration for a name and it's a beautiful poem. I love every verse. I might use a poem for the summer...except I think I was doing the name of a song...

I put the picture of Edward up because...well, no reason, actually. :P He looks Spring-ish, though. And I like his clothes. :P

Well, thank you for reading!
