I drew another comic... although this one is *very* *different* from my last one. ;P

I've been feeling oddly nostalgic today. Maybe it's from watching X-Files and Kalifornia, maybe it's from drawing, maybe it's from staying up crazy late on a school night to update my LJ... or maybe it's just because the cold I've been coming down with is fucking with my head in more ways than they tend to traditionally. I'm not really sure.

It's just a strange, strange feeling and it's difficult to describe. I keep getting flashes of little things that happened to me a long time ago; random things that didn't matter at the time, but I now look back on with fondness or disdain.

I'd comment, once again, on how crazy this probably makes me... To be daydreaming out of the blue about being a little girl and wearing sun dresses and playing with my friends in the street where everything was sheltered, protected, and happy. (At least, as far as a street can be any of these things.) It makes me wonder if craziness comes from losing touch with yourself, or gaining an abnormal sort of connection to who you really are.

The answer is: we're probably all pretty fucking insane. And I think at this point I'm tired out of my mind without realizing it. (Though that's nothing new.)



P.S., If I mark my own journal as having "explicit adult content," as they've added the new feature to do so, does that mean I won't be able to read what I myself have written? What good does that do? I don't know anyone my age and several years younger whose lives wouldn't be rated 18+ if their daily encounters were made into a film. What does that say about censorship?

I posted it.

This took a lot of work to do, so comments are really appreciated. :D

I'm thinking I might get back on DA. I was randomly inspired, about a week ago, to do this little short comic type thing, and now that it's almost done I want to put it up somewhere.

I might just resurrect my old account, actually. I don't really like the name, but honestly I don't feel like going through all the trouble of making a new account. Bleh.



Leo and I are fine. :) We both got up early (on a day when we didn't have to) so we could hang out for a long time before our exam today. (The exam was in the afternoon.) We talked together and laughed together and shivered in the cold together. It was a lot like things were over the summer (minus the cold thing, but whatever.)

I love him so much that I could never begin to describe it. So I won't try.



By the way, I think it's worth noting that my new layout is very, very epic.

The skin on my right arm hurts and I have *no* idea why.

And yes, just the skin... in this one little patch.

It's not bruised, scraped, or discolored in any way as far as I can tell. It just hurts. o_O

I'm assuming it has something to do with the work we were doing today in drama. A professional director was working with us on physical acting, so there were plenty of opportunities to hurt myself and not realize it.

Even so... what the hell happened?


I'm feeling a little bit frustrated.

I really want to get back into art. I mean, as in, the drawings on pieces of paper kind. I started this relatively short manga-inspired-comic a while back, but now that I'm doing shit again and don't have as much time on my hands, I can't get around to working on it right now. And this isn't going to stop, because drama ends next Saturday, and on the following Tuesday I'm back in school.

And I also still have coursework that's due the day I go back. Which I promised my teacher would kick ass, so I have to spend a fair amount of time on it because breaking promises to people I like makes me sad.


Ugh. Whine, whine, whine. That's all I do. xD



*heavy sigh* :/
