For the coming year, my classes consist of 1 class daily at 9:30 AM, and a bunch of practice hours before/after that. So like coming from a 3AM-12PM schedule over the summer I KNEW IT WASN’T GOING TO BE GREAT. well it was ok the first day… I was at school from 9 til 7 and came back dead, but I always feel tired and come home and re-energize when I sit in front of the computer again. I didn’t want to coooook, I didn’t want to go to schooooOOOLLLLLLLLLLLL OMGGGGGGGG WHINEZZZZ
Anyway I saw some frosh week party setups on my way to class… and feel like I’m in a kindergarten. The blown up playgrounds are so LAME LOOKING and there was a drive-in ferris wheel and purple people and stuff. My assigned practice room in the building has some HARDCORE players that practice all day that signed up for all of the timeslots; the only slots left were 8:30 in the morning and some other times when I have class =( then I finished class and had to wait for an audition at the end of the day; there was nothing to do, nowhere to go, so I practiced for like 4 hours (only because my watch was behind for 1 hour) to make up for the complete lack of practice over the past 3 weeks. Though 4 hours is nothing at all to most of the serious high-end students there >>
I bought a microphone too, to record my own playing for myself to listen to. hopefully playback will help me hear things that I don’t normally hear and improve my playing and judgment. That is also to hope that I can have something else to post on here, and to hope that this will pressure me to produce even better playing that won’t embarrass me on ze intrawebs.
annnd I made a chatroom on DA since I heard of the many risks that the average IRC newbie would encounter when hosting a channel. It exploded a few times when famous people plugged it… but otherwise it’s pretty civil and pointless/random and dominated by people I don’t know well. I’ll just add water and see what it grows into… unless there are some convenient chat alternatives that I’m not aware of!
Here’s the ferris wheel of doom

And here’s a STARTER for a hopefully incredibly distracted school year… You see I don’t even care for variety anymore… just wanna draw whatever I feel like for these occasions, even if that means drawing the same looking sketches of the same person many many many many many many times

Woooooow…a ferris wheel. *^* I wanna ride on it. /o/
Whatever subject your draw, whatever character, as long as you post it online, I will be happy to gaze upon it. ^^ The way you’ve developed your style over the years…to me, it’s like you really have defined your own personal branch of art.

Woaaaa, a playground for frosh week. That’s… unusual… O_O; I remember we had cross-dressing parties and square dancing (which some senior friends and I snuck into and joined in with the rest of the freshmen crowd just last week xD; ). Good luck with the new school year~ ;_;

Western students party so hard that they are their own circus. The ferris wheel is to break in the new recruited froshies. >__>
My frosh week wasn’t so technologically advanced. “TAKE CANS OF WHIPPED CREAM AND SPRAY THEM AT OTHER PPL. MAKE NEW FRIENDS LOLOL”
