If you are one of the commissioners at C+E still waiting for your sketches to arrive at your doorstep, I am afraid you would have to wait just a bit longer ;A; I'm so sorry! There has been a mess up at some point but I assure you everything's fine and your sketches are done and safely kept (no really, cus if it isn't I won't be writing this journal but chucking my computer out of the window or something).

I hope you wouldn't mind about the wait too much! ;A;

I swear I am never doing shipping next year, ever again LOLOL //sob

**If you have somehow read this post on my other journal already just ignore this LOL FFFF god trying to post the same stuff on two accounts is so annoying**

I am not supposed to release this video just yet since I am not even finished with the piece haha, but anyways here's a snippet on how I colour (Cesare Borgia from Assassin's Creed Brotherhood):

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMOIpC…<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
(This also may or may not be an attempt to make up for my delay on another tutorial I have promised LOL //shot)

I am sorry for the cheap quality because Windows Movie Maker sucks and I was too lazy to use other programs to put the video together.

This piece will be for sale in Cos+Effect anime convention in Vancouver, UBC student union building August 13-14!

Caution: music rant below rofl

On the other hand, OH MY GOD I FEEL LIKE DYING LOOOL :icontearplz: I am seriously certain that music exams and I were mortal enemies in my past life or something because it just never seemed to satisfy me in any way rofl

So today I had my Advance Rudiments theory exam (just to get it out of the way, I don't even know why I bother but my mom was like dude if you pass you can have a cert and I was like wtf man I quit piano like n years ago) AND BECAUSE I AM SUCH AN EGOTASTIC PERSON I THOUGHT I COULD PULL IT OFF EVEN THOUGH I KNOW I SUCK AT STUFF LIKE THIS. And a very retarded thing about these exams in Vancouver is that they don't really give you a full study criteria so there are always BOUND to be some things they are going to ask you in the exam but you have no idea what the crap they are asking because you never learned it ):

The Italian/German/French music term definitions were even worse because, even though I admit I am really good at short term lolmemorizing, it basically served squat during the exam because there were like, at least 3 out of 10 terms I totally haven't seen before. I know right, the ONE PART I was looking forward to ended up killing me just like the rest of the them.

So this turned out to be a disaster because I am so retarded when it comes to music theory (or maybe that's just cus math is somehow involved) I spent way too long on one question for my own good OTL I eventually experienced what is called "oh shit I can't finish my exam because I ran out of time", even though I DO know how to do at least 90% of the questions. Such a sad thing hasn't happened since grade 6 so I think I am feeling a little traumatized right now ROFL

So yeah, I DIDN'T MANAGE TO FINISH IT. GOD. I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT TO SAY.

I mean I definitely wouldn't have felt so bad if I were just taking this by myself without prior instructors tutoring me (and my bro), but because apparently a student's marks actually reflect on the teacher's report, I don't think I am doing my teacher any favor even though he is a really good teacher :icontearplz: If I can like, sneak in to the database and delete my marks on his file I would, for his sake ;;;;;;;;;

If you happen to be a music guru reading this, it's okay you can laugh don't feel guilty LOL :iconrlytearplz: I am pretty much convinced that music theory (or music in general, sad because I actually love composing random things at random times) and I are just never gonna work, I'll just stick to visual arts and become a geek over there instead lololol

And there goes Vancouver's Olympic reputation lol...I'm not sure how many of you here saw raw footage of the animalistic riot at downtown (especially those who don't live in Vancouver) but man, the first thought that came to my mind was exactly like the political riot in Libya except the rioters were jackasses, drunk, and some of them wore Canucks jerseys rofl. Oh yeah and bandanas and weapons , just to show that they obviously came prepared to start a retarded havoc regardless of whether or not the Canucks won the finals. The only thing I felt relieved about is that guns are illegal here...or else god knows what could've happened.

It was especially a strange sensation for me because even though I was clearly informed of this last night (listening to the TV from upstairs), I was way too busy catching up to deadlines to go downstairs and watch the live broadcast. So when I went downtown for no particular reason today after work (well, it was very sunny, a trait Vancouver obviously lack most of the time), the riot wasn't necessarily on my mind because I thought it wasn't such a big issue, this thought driven by the fact that I sensed almost no hint of a commotion ever taken place other than a few boarded up window panes from major shops, which had been smashed last night. There were a ton of good-hearted people volunteering to clean up graffiti on the walls at the time, and the boarded windows were written all over with apologies from Vancouverites. I wish I had taken a few pictures myself of the boards, because there were some really motivating and encouraging words written on there to voice that the hellish scene last night wasn't Vancouver at all...I think the words are definitely something that should be shared worldwide, especially with some Americans who are dead set on categorizing Vancouver based on last night's events...):

And so I went home, and the gravity of this issue finally hit me in the face like a ton of bricks when I finally had the time tonight to watch the news broadcast, which unsurprisingly contained almost nothing but recorded footage of last night's riot. And man, what a horrible spectacle. You kind of get a full blown glimpse of humanity's cruelest side when you see good people who attempted to stop drunken assholes from exploding police cars, smashing down shop windows and robbing the place clean of merchandise get gang-beaten into a pulp.

--> Oh and of course this is, as usual, for those who still live under a rock: www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3n_if…

But nevertheless, even though I'm not really a true hockey fan, congratulations to the Bruins, and Thomas, your saves were fantastic. :iconheplz:
