Update of my toy-rocket.

Though I'd upload the finished toy-rocket I made.
It doesn't differ from the previous version a lot except from the lighting and so, but I think this picture is better so this is the one I turned in.
I hope I'll manage to learn Maya and become good at it because it's really fun!
It's like sculpting IRL but you don't have to get your hands dirty with clay. I seriously HATE clay, I hate getting dirty and I HATE HATE HATE having dirt under my finger nails. And in Maya you can, like, undo and redo. And duplicate stuff. That's not something you could do IRL with stupid clay, I don't like clay. Maybe I mentioned that earlier?
Now, I've only worked with clay like, one time and that was during my first year in high-school.
We were assigned to sculpt the head of one of our classmates, I still have mine (resembling Helen) placed on a drawer. It lost one of its ears during the removal from the mold, so it looks a bit funny.

So. Conclusion of this post: Maya is cool because it won't give you dirt under your finger nails!


So, this is my finished rocket!

The Silver Surfer result !

So many things happening, I can't keep track on everything!
So I failed the game analysis, just as many others did. I hope it's just some supplements and that I don't have to re-write the whole paper 'cause that would seriously suck so incredibly hard I'd probably implode.
I'll just wait until tomorrow, hope I receive a mail about wether it's about supplements or a re-write. I'll invent my own God of luck meanwhile whom I can pray to! Yes, my own religion, that'd be cool. A lot of cats should be needed for the religion, like, everyone who wants to adopt the religion must love cats, as in LOVE. Loooove. Cats!

My cat is lying next to me (and my Paradis-box of chocolate) snoring. He's so cute when he's snoring. I think he does it just because he tend to lie with his head buried in the sofa. He looks like a grey rock.

I started on our sketching techniques assignment earlier today but it turned out sooo bad. We were supposed to use greyscale (I think..?) and work a lot with volumes... err err...
So my lineart representing a man turned out to look exactly like the Silver Surfer (but uglier). Not cool at all, Silver Surfer isn't even a cool guy!!! Damn! ..
So I tried a speedpainting of a male face instead, (Notice that the painting I posted here is not the Silver Surfer one!) just to do SOME painting today (since tomorrow's workshop is cancelled, <-- aw!).

Womanette!

Updating with a little piece I did today.

I'm quite happy with the result, especially after I changed her blouse to a more pink shade. But the blouse could have been better, ah well!

Something, something... complete!

Yesterday we were tasked to use basic primitives in Maya to make simple toys. I've never used Maya before, or wait, I think I've somehow made an apple in Maya once but I don't remember what or how I did. So, class started off with our teacher teaching (that's what they're for, yup!) us how to navigate in the program. He later showed us how to make, what was supposed to be, a space rocket but since he completed step 1 twice without noticing it (I believe the whole class DID notice it, though), his rocket ended up looking like male genitals half-way through. Entertaining!

When I got home I pondered what kind of toy I wanted to make, and I came up with the rocket from Tin-Tin (yes, copy-cat me, making a rocket as well...). I've always loved that rocket, it's so pretty.

I eventually managed to model something rocket-like but then I wanted color on it!? How the heck do you put color on this piece of crap, I thought. So I asked Micke and with his help I managed to bring color into the life of the miserable rocket (that, sadly, looks nothing like the one from Tin-Tin. At least I got the checkered pattern right!).

Some random sketches from my notebook.

Notebook with some random sketches, I show you them.



"Men du antecknar ju inte!"

He-he-hey!

New courses has begun and I'm as excited as ever! Too bad I didn't make it to today's sketch techniques class though, I'm really sick of SJ and their shitty trains.
It's like this every winter and yet they promise 'this winter's gonna be better with better service' and all that bullshit.
And it always happens at the worst time, too. I hardly got any sleep tonight 'cause of my neighbours (above). They are frankly idiots, and I can say that without feeling any remorse what so ever. I literally hate them and I hope Santa Claus has paid attention to their shitty behaviour and will give them no christmas gifts as a result. HA.
As I've mentioned earlier, they tend to "wake up" (start making noises at least) at 00.00. They keep on going 'til 3 a.m. to say the least.
This night there were screams, kids running back and forth, yelling.. you name it (I hate them in case I forgot to mention that).
Mom went upstairs to ask them to be quiet (shut the fuck up, is more like it) and the reply she got was something like "I don't care if you want to sleep".
That was what made me hating them official. I can't wait until I move out of this apartment, gah!

so, night was horrible with 2-3 hours of sleep. I also hurried to the trainstation at 7 a.m. just to be met by a sign that says my train is delayed by one hour "approximately". Awh come on, not today? I have been looking forward to this course for months now, damn!
So I head to Sultans which is a café located nearby. GARGIGANTIC line there 'cause of all the commuters thinking the same as me. Everyone was at least 20 years older than me and had jobs and stuff which means they could order like, whatever they felt like ordering. I couldn't. I'm (still) saving money for my trip to IKEA. They bought all these fancy sandwiches with shrips, lettuce and.. egg.. (yummm....) I WANTED ONE TOO!? All I ordered was black coffee. Although I must say that was A LOT of coffee for only 20:-, I was able to fill my (very large) glass twice before I emptied the can.
So I drank my coffee, tried to draw for a bit, just to practice but nothing came to my mind. I hate when that happens, you sit there with all the time in the world and nothing to draw. Yuk. Finally, 50 minutes had passed and I happily went back to the trainstation to board my train. Yeah right.
Delayed by another hour. I wouldn't have made it to class with that delay anyways, so I went home.

Why do I always write about how dissatisfied I am with different things, haha? Must be because when I'm not, I have other things to do (that's more fun) than write a blog. I don't like the word blog neither, it sounds like a lump of green slime falling from a balcony.

I think I'm gonna draw a picture of what I mean by that.

Movie night!

Suppose I gotta write something. I want to write something at least, just that I don't know what.
Finished both exams yesterday and sent them in, hopefully I won't fail on any on them but I do expect to have to do some supplementary work on them.
But all in all it looks like I'm finished with computer graphics and game analysis, cheers!

I managed to eat a whole kebab pizza all by myself the other night, I hate when you buy some greasy shitfood when you're drunk, haha! It tastes so good it should be illegal. For some reason I ordered with 'red sauce' on it and it was so spicy. Too spicy but yet so good. Yum... I wish I still had you on my plate, lovely kebab pizza!

Was planning to spend this day playing Fallout: New Vegas but I got stuck in front of the TV instead. Mars Attacks is on air later and I just love that movie. Thinking about wether or not I'm gonna head out to the kitchen to try and make potato pancakes. I loved it when they served them for lunch at school but now that I go to university college they only have some darn restaurant where you have to pay for food. Haha, sounds really lame with me not wanting to pay for food when I'm in school but I guess I'm too used to it being free.
My mom doesn't like potato pancakes, so she refuses to make them for me, so I really should try and learn how to make them.
Especially considering I'll be moving in a month... At first, time passed sooo slow and now I'm a bit concerned that I'll have to stress-pack-stuff in to boxes in the end of november.

Oh, speaking of Fallout: New Vegas (which I, honestly, looove~), my character (or avatar, as the course lecture always refered it to) is so ugly haha. He's got these super-dark eyes and blonde beard? And a mohawk, haha, damn it I can't post a picture since I'm on the wrong computer for the moment.
Now I've found a pair of super-geeky glasses for him that he proudly wears, and some days ago I went down and shot the hell out of Motor-Runner and took his hat for myself. Made one really ugly combo, especially since my character, for the moment, is running around in some greasy Elvis-inspired clothing. Really lovely. I didn't name him though, I always tend to get stuck on that part otherwise. I get so serious like, I want my character to have a really cool name but since I don't keep cool names in my head all day long so they might be availible when I do, in fact, NEED a cool name, I never come up with a cool name. Then I usually start up google and type in "cool names" which REALLY grants some good results I tell you (not).
Just look at these "cool nicknames" you can find on Google:
¤ joelissa
¤ kuknylle
¤ White-Ra
¤ wardtafarbeebeekill
¤ devoluter
.. yeah. No. So I kept the name of Courier 6 on my character. I hope he likes!

Snot is not cute.

I just have to write this off me, otherwise it will bug me all day and hinder me from studying at all, me thinks.

The morning started very well despite my boyfriend's alarm went off before mine did.. stuff like that's annoying 'cause it's those last few minutes in bed before you have to go up that are really comfortable. In some amazing way, the bed also gets a lot warmer those last few minutes. Magical! Anyway, so I went up and the sun was shining and the sky was blue. Made me consider the possibility that it had been a very cold night and that the day would be somewhat as cold.
We ate breakfast. Good breakfast. I had to stress-eat my sandwich but it was good anyways because I had cognacsmedwurst on it, yummmM!
We didn't even have to hurry to the station, sign after sign of what I was hoping would be a good day!

BUT NO. NOOOO. Why would I think that? Good day? Why, me? No, not should I? Really? For me? You are just too kind!

Yeah.

So I boarded the train, searching for my seat... found it... but, why, hello there sleepyhead! Laying across both seats, are we? How about taking into consideration, BEFORE YOU FUCKING FALL ASLEEP, that SOMEONE else MIGHT have booked that seat? Just MAYBE someone wanted to have someplace to SIT for the fucking hour it takes to Skövde? No? Not taken that into consideration, have we? Okay then, FINE. I'll just be rude and wake you up, and I will be victorious. It will be like where you give a faulty answer to the teacher's question and I step forward to correct you, and laugh at you in silence. Yes, you will feel ashamed. You will be sorry for ever falling asleep on the seat I had booked.
So I poke you. I clear my throat, saying with determined voice 'excuse me, I believe this is my seat.'
Y-y-y-eeeaa-h-h-h..... sooo. That didn't work, hee hee. Embarrassed, looking for new seat that is not taken.
Do not want to look stupid. Lets out a loud sigh to let others in traincar know SHE was sleeping on MY seat and that is why I look like a hobo having to search for another seat. I DID BOOK a seat, you know, hee hee...
So I find a seat. Sit down. A second later one of the molded briefcase-men showed up claiming it was his seat. DARN!
Moving myself to the space right next to the toilet. My strategy was to wait until everyone had boarded the train then see to it that everyone had sat down so I could snatch any free seat for myself!
The ONLY freaking seat NOT TAKEN in the whole car was a seat behind my worst nightmare. A fully awake, lively, snot-filled baby. It had like, three teeth. The less the teeth the more annoying they are because just like a tree has growth rings to determine its age, babies got teeth. They produce more teeth the older they get, and with that information, I could determine the age of the baby and it was a horrifying discovery.
Lucky! The baby was guarded by its father, a father I was hoping would keep his snooty offspring in check. Haha. As if.
That kid bugged me from the moment I placed my ass on that seat 'til I sprang off the train in Skövde. It peeked back at me from its seat trying to touch my laptop display with its greasy, slimy hands. I also believe it was trying to communicate with me by yelling weird shit like 'BÖ! BÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖ! UH UH!'
Not cute. Not cute at all. What if I would turn my head around in my seat and yell such stuff to the person sitting behind me, I would probably be taken for a real idiot and be asked to shut the fuck up, but when babies do it's like ALL OKAY AND CUTE AND KAWAII AND 'OOH IT'S JUST A BAAAAYBEEEEEH IT DOESN'T KNOW BETTER THAN TO DO ALL THESE ANNOYING THINGS TO OTHER PEOPLE AND I, WHO SAY THIS ARE ITS PARENT AND I DON'T CARE ABOUT ANYONE EXCEPT ME AND MY BAAAAYBEEEEH 'CAUSE WE'RE THE FUTURE OF THE HUMANITY, WE WILL POPULATE THE EARTH! YOUR STUDIES WON'T POPULATE THE EARTH, ME AND MY BAAAAAYBEEEH WILL!!!!'

I could probably go on for an hour or two about this but I'm done.

Tau Zero!

I love this science-fiction novel!

--

I really should go to bed now, tomorrow will be a long, boring day. Just gotta do the fishing-daily in WoW before I go to sleep... ehehe..

Diablo this and that, and some virus scanning.

This week sucks!
My anti-virus program keep telling me I have some kind of virus everytime I try to log on to World of Warcraft, I clean the computer and scan it very thoroughly and it works for like, a day and then it's "back" again... I don't know what to do, really... sob sob.

At least my computer have gotten a well-needed cleanup!

I've installed Diablo II on my laptop by the way. It took a while to get it running on Windows 7, but when I downloaded it from Battle.net it came to work quite well. I don't have to go through the pain of bringing the CD either just to be able to start the game. Cheers! First time I played Diablo II, I played as an amazon, I think I thought of her as cool or something... maybe I saw myself in that character, I mean, we both had blonde hair!?
I was just a kid, teehee. Second time I played a sorcerer and this time I chose a paladin. I've grown more fond of playing melee-classes in games recently, it's more fun to hit stuff to death than like, shoot at them from a distance... spells don't sound as brutal as raw hits does, haha!!

I haven't decided on which class to play in Diablo III though... the male witch doctor do in fact look the most cool of them all, but I think I'll play monk. Can't decide whether it will be male of female though. Well, I don't have to either, it's like, a year until it's released. Too bad.

Comic finished!

I've so many things to do, homework to finish.. it's ridiculous! (Yet, fun, I can't help but to love love every setback I come to face).

I was totally convinced that the Study technique-essay (Study technique? Is that even the correct translation haha?) was due to 8th of October and when I found out it has to be finished and handed in this friday, I panicked.

I hade made this very colourful and pretty schedule over one week with scheduled time for studies and other activities (it was a part of the course criteria btw) and I felt so proud that I had finished it the other day, that was, until I found out we had to schedule the rest of the whole course, not just one week. That sucked so bad, so I've got a lot of work left to do.

I have, at least, finished my comic for the computer graphics course, I really had no ideas whatsoever, so I took one of my favourite jokes of all time and drew pictures of it.
It had to be made in Illustrator, a program which I'm not very familiar with. Simple navigation was easy due to it being quite similar to Photoshop, but one thing I really missed was some kind of overview or object map (I'm quite positive something like that exists in Illustrator, just that I couldn't find it.. hurr..durr..) which would allow me to see exactly every object I have made, and in what kind of, like, hierarchy they are. Would have made things a lot easier and more timesaving.. I bet it exists, if anyone knows, please tell me where to find such an option!

Oh, yeah, I'm gonna post the comic here of course:



Yeah, I just have to comment one thing about the comic now that I uploaded it and all... (noticed afterwards).
I know atoms doesn't look like that (durr....) but it was the only way I could incorporate the facial emotions I wanted to portray!

Have cold - will travel.

Still having a cold, just won't go away, sigh. Well, we're still going to Stockholm tomorrow and, as far as I know, we won't even get seats. That's cool I pay 4225:-/a month for my monthly ticket for commuting between Skövde and Katrineholm, but I won't even get a free seat-reservation on any other train. I really think I should be allowed a seat on most of their InterCity trains, if there is one. 4225kr is quite a lot of money, ah well. In half a year I will probably have reached their Black tier for SJ Prio which means free coffee. Free coffee is always cool!

I found a 5kr coin under my bed yesterday, and it made me really happy. Now I can start saving up money in my cattybank again. It was full and I emptied it and exchanged the money. It was fun.

Aw, I love cats. They're so cute, I'm sitting with mine in my lap right now, aw, just as I wrote that, he left. Sigh. Anyways, I think my boyfriend will be here any minute, and we're gonna watch Battlestar Galactica tonight, I actually think we might be finished even!

It's too late, I can haz sleep?

So, yay, the cold finally caught me and I'm sneezing, being cold and have headache like, most of the time. I can hardly force myself to read all the articles and chapters I must have read 'til thursday, 'cause my head hurts so much. OOHH POOOR MEEE I'M GONNA DIIIE right heeere riight nooow! .. yeah.. no.

So, I'm gonna do what I logged on for, upload the two doodlesketeches I drew during the game studies class.



It's a "vad" and his two dogs, one of them named Otis. That's cute, I like the name Otis, if I EVER will have a dog, it's gonna be called Otis, Döden or Otto. If I, no, when I, get more cats, they're gonna be named Lich King, Kel'Thuzad and/or Spock. Cool names eyh? Can imagine when Lich King pooped on the carpet again, or when Kel'Thuzad is sleeping in a box roasted-turkey style.

Oh, speaking of roasted turkey, I ordered a new 'book' (guess you could call it a comic more or less) a while ago:


Incredibly awesome and cutealistic drawings by this fantastic artist. Gotta love!


Oh, I can't wait 'til saturday when me and my dear boyfriend will go on a trip to Stockholm. We just have to pay a visit to Science-Fiction bokhandeln, and I'm gonna spend a lot of time in the Stockhome-stores as well as in Gray's American Stores.



Yeah, we all love american food, right?

I hate my neighbours (can't say that enough).

Aa haet ma naeboors (saying in cool Texas-style voice). They just CAN'T be quiet during the nights, we live under them and we have asked them to be more quiet after 11p.m. because, well, I need to sleep, mom needs to sleep and basically, their KIDS need to sleep too, but they keep waking us all up, them morons. They are totally quiet until approximately 00.00, that's when they 'wake up' from their slumber or something, because then, first the woman starts talking really loud, and then the man answers from like, the other side of their apartment which reslut in us hearing screams. As a result of them scream-talking to eachother, their youngest kid wakes up, a little baby. I don't like babies, and this one screams A LOT. Really loud and I can see why 'cause the baby obviously want to sleep during the night 'cause it's obviously tired from being a baby all day long and doing all sorts of baby-stuff like crawling and being disgusting. Either way, when their baby screams, their 4-5 year old kid wakes up and is, apparently, not in as dire need of sleep as the baby, but actually quite energetic and starts running back and forth in their hallway. Yay. So what do we have, four people making noices, LOUD, different noices usually between 00.00 - 03.00, then I either fall asleep (finally) or they give up and... falls asleep too, I don't know. (I think they're aliens).
So, we have asked them to be quiet serveral times but they obviously does not care, I'm dying to know that I have to deal with these neighbours for two more months, they really fuck up my studies.
This night I got approximately 4 hours of sleep, or I would have if I hadn't overslept and missed the train and slept some more(only had one class today so later trains was no option).
Conclusion: I hate them.

McZombie.

Ah, the drawing I said I would upload. There it is, it's some kind of McDonald's zombie, haha!

Kangaroos (and ships)!

This night, I dreamt of more kangaroo's. And a sinking ship, but that's nothing unusual. 20% of my dreams are random crap and the rest consists of ships, which I am on, which then sinks. And I fall into the dark, cold water but I think I usually survive, but I'm like, frightened to death haha! I don't know if I really believe there's subconscious messages in dreams, but if so be it, I'm gonna look up what sinking ships means right now!

Okay so this is what it says on some random site:

Sinking
To dream that you or something is sinking implies that you feel overpowered by a situation, issue, or person. You may harbour emotions of unworthiness and unimportance. It is possible that you may be reaching the conclusion of a phase or period in your life. Pay attention to the item that is sinking and determine the symbolism of this item.

Okay, I'm gonna look up the specific word "ship".

To dream that a ship crashed or is sinking denotes that you feel unable to manage a certain part of your life. You may feel scared or hesitant about your feelings pertaining to a person or event. The thought of something or someone important to you slipping away is filling you with fear.

.. okaaay, cool, I'm like super emo and scared. Cool.

Skipping to the next subject.

Had a fun computer graphics class today which I spent drawing, gonna post the outcome of that when I've taken a photo of it.
Wwhich event stands out the most today is when I mistook some people for some of my classmates.
An ugly comic follows, in the style of Hyperbole and a Half (which is one of the funniest and best blogs I've ever read, I love it, I really LOVE IT! I especially love the 'alot' post.. yeah!)

So this is what happened, more or less.

Oh, and my lovely laptop bag!

Pictuuuuhr of eeeet!

A normal day in a 'weird' person's life.

Today!

On the train:
Nothing funny happened on the train except for the man sitting at the opposite of the table in front of me. It started to smell reaaaally rotten so I jumped to the conclusion he had eaten some bad food and was farting. WHY does people always fart when they're around me, gah.. always me.
Either way he got tired of farting in my presence (or he just simply wanted some seats of his own) so he switched seats half-way through the trip. Farting-switchman!

In school:
Hm... I was late as usual, SJ doesn't seem to care about whether people are in time for work or school, as long as they get their money for expensive seat reservation and a can of Coca-Cola Zero for 20kr. I laid my eyes on a weird tunnel at the end of platform 2 which I think might lead me in the right direction (school)... that might be my shortcut to success!!! I'm gonna try it out tomorrow and hope it won't lead me to some weird underground dungeon where all the hobo's live, err...
So back to where I was, I was late for my first class in, what could you call it, study techniques? Boring class as hell, also note that the woman talking for like two hours about how important it is to schedule your time, actually extended the class by 10 minutes so she could fit in all she had to say. Yeah about that.

Oh, I also heard that a teacher assumed the students at my program are "weird people" (hence the headline). That's amazing, I like weirdo's!

At home:
As my boyfriend got here we logged on to WoW as usual and ran a quick MGT heroic for the mount. Of course it finally dropped. Of course he won it. Aw.... We did ZG and Karazhan aswell, and with some help from Linus, Sethekk Halls heroic.
Mountfarm, mountfarm, mountfarm. Especially the ZG ones are important now that they are going to remove the instance, aw!
I've mostly given up on the Baron Rivendare's mount, I've killed him about a hundred times and no horsie. 'Look at my horse, my horse is non-existent'. Funny.

I could actually post a comic about my runs in Strat, made by Linus. I don't think he would mind, he doesn't even read my blog!

I like minesweeper!

At some times, I think the game minesweeper is based on the relations you have with people in your surroundings in real life. I, for one, can see myself in a situation where what ever wrong step I take, someone in my surroundings get mad or blown off (offended) by my mistake. It’s like, if I only hang out with one person, all my focus for the moment is on that person and that person only. There’s no one else around me to pay attention to, which makes it easier for me to learn what this person I am with likes and dislikes, and how far I can go before that person is pissed off. With more and more people around me, it’s harder to concentrate on what exactly each one of them need, and saying something, or doing something wrong may offend someone since I haven’t had the opportunity and time to get to know that person good enough because so many others around me crave attention as well.
For that reason, I prefer hanging out with fewer (nice) people rather than a lot of (half-nice) people!

New hair.

I guess I'll have to update my userpic now since I've recoloured my hair.
Now I look like a crossover between hay and carrot. Cool!
Although, I actually like it since the red/orange colour turned out just the way I wanted.
Three bleachings and one colouring and I was done!
I would need to cut my fringe aswell, but can't be arsed right now.

It's this time of the month where it feels like the lower part of my stomach is going to be wrecked, uhuuuu, hurts so much!

I'm a woman!

I don't have time for digital paintings anymore! Well, I do, but I keep having my sketchpad with me more often now, than before.
It's such a tiny sketchpad, A5, so it doesn't take up a lot of space.
Sometimes it gets a bit bumpy on the train, and whatever straight line you are trying to achieve by drawing just gets screwed over totally by the bumps. I like that, brings a little excitement to the otherwise deliberately boring trip.

Class today was as exciting and fun as always (all this happy and positive talking about the school this far kind of freaks me out, do I really feel this way or am I just trying to convince myself that's how I feel? Joke aside, I really like it there and for once, the tasks you get are fun! Really fun!)
Today we've learned about alpha channel-this and alpha-channel-that and a lot of other stuff which I'm afraid I don't remember a bit of unless check the notes I took to refresh my memory.
Too bad I always miss the 09.47 train home, I have to wait to 11.47 for the next one. Today I decided to take a walk to Rusta to pass some time, and a bunch of classmates joined me.
We spent like, 30 minutes walking in the totally wrong (well, almost totally wrong) direction (might have been my fault, tee hee!) so when we finally figured out where Rusta actually was located I only had very few minutes to find what I needed and get the hell out of there.
I bought two cute carpets and then I jogged (more or less) back to the train station. It was such a looooong way to walk/jog, I'm never gonna walk to Rusta again, EVER! I'd rather waste some money on a busride than walk again. I hate walking from now on. Yes. Especially when all you've eaten that day was an egg-sandwich at 6 a.m.

Conclusion: Bus > walking. Always.

Rovaniemi IP.

I don't think I've ever doodled so much during class and STILL learn/listen so much!
Owh, I almost forgot what it was I wanted to write about.
Mom thinks I should save money to buy a better TV when I move out but I don't know... she's got a point because the one I've got now really sucks, can hardly play any Xbox-games on it 'cause the text is too small, it's basically only good for retro consoles (which I own quite a few of, so no problem!). But there is one THING (among all other "things") that are unnecessary to own but still I CRAVE to do so (!!!) and that is a telescope. Nothing fancy really, I'm nothing but a novice, but one good enough for me. I just have to save up some money to buy one. Screw TV, screw everything else, like.. carp.. no not the carpets, I still want carpets also, especially red/white striped ones... but screw eating fancy food for a year or so, I can eat canned baby corn all day long if so be it, I must have a telescope!
So dear Santa, if you're reading my blog (which I assume you are, not that smart surfing from Rovaniemi) GET ME A FRACKING TELESCOPE FOR CHRISTMAS!
Arigatou!

Gonna go pick up my laptopbag now I think, hopefully my lovely patch will arrive as early as tomorrow so I can mod the bag to my liking!
(Hint: (fake) leather + BSG patch = .......... I came.)

Joss and the military midget!

Yay, once again I am an happy student, studying and being all happy-go-lucky!
No, but, really, I still am excited even though school has started and everything with it. Had our first lecture in computer graphics today, it was pretty much MEH all the way through, haha! Our teacher, if that is the correct term to use, was almost, what felt like, a bit shy? He liked to pause a lot, and I mean, A LOT. But I think he's cool, he taught us that a pixel is a square (no way?) and that it's short for picture element (something I actually did not know, to be honest). We're also taking a course in game studies parallel to the computer graphics course, where we were told to play some card game called Liar! which I, unfortunately, have never heard of. Checked it up on the internet and it looked pretty simple and fun, too bad my boyfriend is working late this week 'cause now I have noone to play it with!

Anyways, I have to write this story down, it was something that happened today at the train station and I just don't want to forget about it ever, haha 'cause it was so odd.

I'm sitting at a bench at the train station and I'm reading my book, it's like, cold there and I'm quite bored. A tiny, tiny man in military clothing, carrying a huuuge backpack with military stuff, walks towards me. He's incredibly short, which makes it all so much funnier 'cause he, as a person, looked very funny and misplaced in those (manly) clothes he was sporting. Oh, he also wore glasses, and I'm not saying that as a bad thing or anything 'cause glasses are cool and can look pretty good if they are of the right geometry to it's wearer's face, but he had those huge glasses that you think just can't be that very convenient while doing military service.
Basically, he looked funny.
Anyways, he walks towards me, I make accidental eye contact with the guy and as a result of that, I put on a smile 'cause I've heard I can look quite grumpy when I have my natural face on.
He walks past me by, like, one feet and then he makes a very sudden stop, bends over so much that his head almost touches his feet, and he FARTS SO DAMN LOUD I ALMOST SHAT MY PANTS. He stands there, shaking his butt towards me and FARTS for what felt like an eternity (but I think it was more like 3-4 seconds)!
He then shakes his butt a bit more, stretches his back, and casually walks away, leaving me on the bench with nothing but a WTF all over my face.

Ha! Hahaha... haha!

Carlos!?

A drawing I drew yesterday while waiting for the train to Skövde, and finished (if I can call it finished...) while waiting for the train to take me home! The picture of it is a bit distorted since I tried to get a good pic of it with my crappy camera, but as the camera is crappy, so was the outcome.
I named the guy Carlos or Claudio, I haven't decided yet. I had the name Claudio in mind when I started the drawing, but as I kept on going, I just kept thinking CARLOS CARLOS CARLOS... where the heck did that name come from anyways!?

Carlos? WHO ARE YOU, SNEAKING UP ON ME LIKE THAT? CARLOS???

Second schoolday!

Okay, so, school has started and everything's cool... first day yesterday and embarrassingly enough I agreed to answer some questions a man from the TV4 Skaraborg news wanted to ask new students at the university college.
I, err... I wonder why I didn't remember, at that very moment, why I hate answering questions when you don't get time to think through your answers.

Anyway, here's the url to the clip:
http://www.tv4play.se/nyheter/lokala_nyheter/skaraborg?videoId=1.1764394

I sound like a five year old kid when I say things like "I hope everyone's nice giggle giggle" kind of... err.

BUT!

I think I'm gonna love it there, I am so looking forward to start studying for real, enough with the get-to-know-eachother things for this week, I wanna study!
I think I'm gonna order some books from adlibris later today, and then put together my shelf for shoes I bought very cheap at Netto.
A good thing is, it's very small so I think it will fit in my closet when I move to my own apartment.
I also bought a bowl and some smaller bowls and four cups at Netto, very cute and retro:ish and I fell in love with them the moment I laid eyes on them!

Also featuring in this post is a picture of my lovely notebook I bought at Lagerhaus. Owls and some more owls on it!
QTE!

Josefine, 7yrs.

This is obviously how I thought I looked when I was 7 years old.

I'm going to bed now, not because I'm tired but because I'm so cold uhuhuhu!

Club Nintendo.

Haha how funny, I didn't even know I still kept this membercard, but it turned out I did! I remember how happy I was when my mom let me become a member of the Nintendo-club when I was a kid. You received a magazine and other cool stuff, and I they had this hotline you could call for tips and help for Nintendo-games. I remember always calling them when I played Banjo-Kazooie.
I was quite young and I wished for an english dictionay for christmas just so that I could understand the videogames I played. My playing-as-I-translated went quite smooth until I came to Gobi's Valley in Banjo-Kazooie, the one where you meet the sphinx with a cold. I didn't understand that he actually HAD a cold until I was older, so I tried to translate what he said but it was all in vain, of course. I think that was the first time I called the club Nintendo hotline, haha!

I also remember they had a contest where you were to draw a picture of the Majora's Mask Zelda-game and you could win this awesome kind of collectors edition package of the game. I love and always have loved Zelda, so I entered the contest but instead of, like, taking my enrty into the competition, they published the fucking drawing among the other letters kids sent in. I was so sad.

I think I'm gonna continue sorting through my stuff now, I don't think I will have as much time to do it once the school's started and then I (hope) time will just flyyyy by and suddenly it's december 1st!

heuheu!

Waiting for train...

... did some drawings and sketches to try and keep the skills fresh every day. Bah!

Cute!

I bought these lovely salt&pepper cellars on sale today, they will go perfect with my red lamp and toaster in my new kitchen!
Spent my day in Skövde with my mom, ate the tastiest hamburger ever and found THE showercurtain, I mean THE!!... but I have no money so, sigh.

Farm girl.

I'm trying really hard not to use any outlines.. it turns out to be incredibly hard for me!

December 1st is the day!

Yay, I signed the papers on my apartment today and will be moving in on december 1st! Happyhappyhappy! Gonna head down to the fabricshop some day to see if I can find a nifty brown fabric to make a nice couch cover for my very ugly grey couch. Gonna match with some orange and mint green pillows as well as a beige blanket.

I should have spent my day with my boyfriend watching Battlestar Galactica but job swiftly called him in so I've got no special plans for today, sigh!
Although tomorrow me and my mom are going on a trip to Skövde, to check out the town and just... hang out.. I guess? Haha!

Not many days left now!

In exactly a week I will embark on a new journey of my life, I will for the first time in my life study at a university college. It is both exciting and frightening at the same time if I may say so, I mean... are the people there nice? Are they much older or even younger than I am, do they all live there, and so on. I mean, first of all, I will be commuting. I hope at least some of the other students in my class-to-be are going to commute as well so I won't be the only one possibly showing up late for seminaries.
I wonder how much the course litterature will cost. I have incredibly many questions and I won't get any answers 'til next monday at the very earliest. I hate waiting like this and not be able to do anything about it, I can't really relax at all. I really, really hope I will enjoy it there, that the people are nice and that I get along well with them, I would hate if I would come to feel like I did during the time I spent at the highschool of Fryshuset. I wanted so badly to like the school and overall, like it there, but I didn't and so I quit.
I feel like university college isn't something you just quit, I spent, not really but almost, three years working really hard to get the grades that would guarantee my spot on that particular university course, so I can't just quit it if I don't make all that many friends or if the teachers suck. I think. Maybe I can, but then I would probably regret that later on in life.
Either way I could really go for a kebab wrap right now and I can't afford one.

That sucks.

Raiding is tedious...

.. really tedious. Just some small doodles done during raiding!

Some late night drawings.

I'm sitting here at my laptop again, it's starting to become a habit I think. Staying awake until 6.30 a.m. so that I'm awake when my dear boyfriend comes over from his night-shift and then sleep until like 2 p.m. Not good, not good at all. I really need to put an end to that routine, but I'm not even tired right now, not even a little!
Jerry Springer is on TV and I just can't help but to enjoy watching it, teee hee!

Also, about the apartment, I didn't get to sign the contract yesterday for reason unknown but according to Tegelstaden, everything is settled and I will be signing the papers on monday instead. I regret not taking any pictures or anything while I visited the apartment because I have almost already forgotten what the wallpapers looked like...
Will be hard to buy matching curtains when I don't remember.
Been checking out IKEAs webpage and found a lot of stuff that I want though, especially for the kitchen.
A red/white striped carpet that I just love!

I wanna move in right now!

And so it seems...

.. I will be moving to my own apartment in late november! Too bad she hadn't cleaned the apartment when we got it shown to us because it was really hard to imagine only the rooms and wallpapers without all her furniture and stuff lying around.
But they will switch out the stove as well as the bathroom cabinet so I think it will look great in the end!
It's on the 3rd floor with a balcony facing west which means that I will be able to sit there and enjoy the sunset, although the balcony lacked a roof.. not that fun during rainy days.
Neither did the apartment have a bathtub, not that I'm using the one in our current apartment that often, but I suppose I will miss taking a bath with lit candles from time to time.

But all in all I'm really happy, I will be signing the contract tomorrow and some trips to IKEA would be nice!

Now I'm gonna have a cup of coffee, strong coffee, and then I'm gonna log onto WoW!

I'm so thrilled!

Today at 2 p.m. I'm gonna have a look at an apartment, and I'm so nervous. I hope it's pretty! All I know is that it is located very close to the train station which is a good thing since I will be commuting to Skövde for studies starting this fall. I also heard it's got a balcony which is a must since I have my lovely pet cat (who also happens to be my best friend), Kevin Krösus. He's an in-door cat who loves to sit on the balcony in our current apartment, gazing out over the streets.
The rent, if I remember correctly, wasn't that high neither, about 2700-2900 sek, which is totally agreeable for an apartment with one room and kitchen in my opinion.

I can hardly force myself to go to bed now that I am this excited, haha!

I think I'm gonna continue reading Roadside Picnic and hope I fall asleep, I've gotta finish that book sometime, I just don't want it to end so I try to read it as seldom as possible.

Good night!

Happy Amber!

I usually get very hyped on drawing when I watch TV, I don't know why really. Maybe it's because the voices on the TV is tricking me into believing I have company, which makes it easier to relax. Sounds weird! Any way, tonight I was watching Discovery Travel & Living. On air was 'What not to wear', I don't know if I really honestly enjoy that show or what it is, but I use to watch it when the TV's on.
I then really, reaaally felt like drawing something so I went to my room, picked up my Wacom and sat down by my laptop. Something that I know I'm not very good at is painting withOUT the use of outlines. I get kind of freaked out just by the thought of it - not knowing where one colour should stop and another take in.
So I took a shot at it, at first I got really freaked out, haha, almost cut it off, but I tried my best to finish the piece and this is how it turned out.




I'm not quite sure how long it took, (for some reason I just can't seem to keep track of the time when I'm painting) but a wild guess would be a couple of hours.
I'm not that satisfied with how the hands turned out, but I really like her shirt/thing.

Changes to come.

As the headline implies, changes are to come to this so called blog. I will, a part from some content that will be of other nature, only post things related to my progression as an artist. Ideas and links, as well as finished art and sketches, will be posted from now on.
All this as an attempt to keep this blog alive, for others, but mostly for myself to keep track on my progression!
I will try my best to stick to english as well, good for me, good for others.

Enjoy!

20h06

Sitter och lyssnar på The Strokes varvat med The Smiths och arbetar på mitt projekt. Det är tröttsaaaamt and I feel like resting a bit...

00h04

Guwd vad jag nyser, det är helt sick.
All denna förkylning har dock resulterat i att mitt andra verk till utställningen är klart, även om det är lite saker jag inte är nöjd med... but it had to be done 'til tomorrow, då vi ska trycka affischerna också (passar på att trycka min bild samtidigt).
Liten smakprov!!!

16h24

Uhuh, Jag var och fick en kopparspiral idag, OUCH!? Kan ha varit den sjukaste smärtan ever, och så lite feber på det så var det ju kanonkul.. snyft.
Var även i skolan idag och fick affischen till vår utställning bedömd, den blir nog bra när den ska tryckas imorgon. Fick även veta att min bild jag ska trycka bör vara klar samtidigt, inte som jag tänkt, men det lär jag hinna, hihih.

Jag sitter med min underbara kattpojke i knät, han gosmyser med min arm, awww. Och så har mamma bakat bullar, såna man har glasyr på, geez today is quite okay after all!
Nu kan jag ju gå här med min kopparspiral i 10 år och vara glad!

Herr Joacims ena present dök upp på posten igår, skönt att den hann komma, blev väldigt förvånad eftersom det bara tog 1 dag från UK? Amazing!

Väntar på klänningarna jag vann på Tradera också... suck. Och min studentklänning + skor of course, I hope they'll fit! Fick ta en storlek förstora skor för min storlek hade hunnit ta slut, men det borde lösa sig om man lägger i en extra skosula. Haha, sula. Så fult ord.

Nu måste jag tokmåla på min bild så den blir klar och jag nöjd!

18h03

Ih nu har jag finally beställt min klänning (efter mycket krångel med Swedbanks nya verified by VISA-tjänst...) och mina skor! Även lite presenter, hihihih.
Fick nyss ned Metro 2033 som ska, om möjligt, testas, och lite WoW med Herr Joacim idag!
Imorgon ska jag åka hela vägen till Norrköping för att gå på min kusins konfirmation, I hope there will be fuuuud YUM.
~Bai

01h33

STUDENTKLÄNNING WIN!!!

Finally, om inte den där hinner ta slut innan fredag, eller imorgon kväll till och med, så har jag funnit TEH klänning! Inte lika cute som de andra två, men helt okej och lite mer annorlunda då den inte är helvit utan blommig. Har även hittat ett par fina skor jag vill ha till! Teehee, girlishhhh... Lös wouldn't be too fond of this altho, he left the guild? Quite a shame, han var roligt knasig.

Jag har även, med lite hjälp, valt ut en fewn present till Herr Joacim som fyller snart! Jag är en så bra tjej, hihi!

20h25

STUDENTKLÄNNING FAIL #2!
Jag typ, NU ska jag leta efter en annan, letade huuur länge som helst on da intarwebz.. och finally. I FOUND ANOTHER ONE! Fanns i min storlek, allt var sol och blommor och frön i luften och varma vindar ända tills: . . . . THEY DIDN'T SHIP OUTSIDE UK! Why, God of Graduationdresses, WHY!?
Är det för att jag fick så många pets i WoW? You can HAVE THEM, I DON'T WANT THEM!! Hahaha.. nåväl.

Ska väl bara svälja min must-have-stolthet och leta efter en annan.. på en sida som FRAKTAR TILL EUROPA.

Nu ska jag sluta capsa, inte så ballt.
Körde nyss en Black Temple rep-run, det är alltid så roligt folk med i de raiderna!
Idag var det en DK som hette Dethnite (eller nåt), he amused me with ninjataunting and ninjalooting, inte för jag bryr mig om han tar gear, men andra gör det I guess.
I feared he'd tauntloot one of them glaives if they'd drop!!

DEEEEETHHHHNAAAAAYYYYTTTT RAAAAAGGGEEEE!!

Eller Andovis. You decide.

Nu blir det en Mount Hyjal rep-run samtidigt som jag skriver klart läxor.

00h24

USCH vad jag hatar att vara sjuk. Det är så ocoolt, man är så sunkig och blä. Dessutom är min studentklänning jag ville beställa slut. Så jag måste hitta en annan, fort. Jag tror jag typ letat på hela internet om det ens är möjligt!

16h51

Alltså, jag brukar alltid ha otur i WoW..? Men i förrgår fick jag Jeweled Fishing Pole i min Northrend Bag of Fishing Treasures, och sen samma natt fick jag Muckbreath's Bucket från min Outland Bag of Fishing Treasures! Okej! Kvällen efter fick jag Snarly's Bucket, och idag fick jag Strand Crawler! I love vanity pets!!!

22h40

Idag har Jocke och jag ätit sådär sjukt mycket chips och spelat delvis WoW, delvis Mass Effect 2. Jag blev så överlycklig när jag märkte att det öppnat ett apotek inne på Kvarnen? Haha, för mig är det världens grej, orka gå hela vägen längs med gatan för att komma till det andra apoteket liksom, jag som köper nässpray så ofta! Riktigt nice! Det var otroligt fint och fräscht också, haha alltså som sagt, vilken grej egentligen (inte) men jag blev happy!
Jag har inte så överdrivet många ställen att farma rep med i WoW nu, som jag kan farma själv, suck.






Nu har iallafall herr Joacim gått hem, och imorgon är det högskoleprovet på Södra skolan, så jag tänkte väl spana in lite gamla prov... samt läsa lite mer Amory Wars!

18h11

Hohoho har burit upp mitt gamla dockskåp från förrådet och målat om dess möbler så de är lite mer appealing.. anyways, när jag letade efter soffa 2/2 så hittade jag..!!! MIN GAMLA SERVETTSAMLING!! I am like sooo happy!



Nu ska jag börja sno servetter var jag än är...
Iallafall, meanwhile så låg Kevin och Herr Joacim och slackade!!

20h06

Jag har påsklov, är det inte helt amazing? Är det inte lite för bra? Lite så man kanske skulle ta och dra på sig urinvägsinfektion? Det gillar ju jag, tycker det är asballt att ha det. Suck..

Kokar massa kaffe så jag får i mig vätska, gief gief, och så har jag ju mina tre påskägg att trösta mig med!
Jag fick även lite hjälp av Jocke igår så nu har jag kommit igång med mitt projekt lite mer, jag måste bara ooorka sätta mig och bestämma mig för hur allt ska vara, jag som är så velig.
Noblegarden började idag på WoW så jag har varit more or less busy med att leta ägg, minns förra året när vi lanade hos Tommy och han typ "aaamen jag letade typ 7 timmar innan jag fick alla saker!! Eller nej typ TIIIE timmar eller typ ÅTTA!!" Haha. Hahahaha! Jag minns den tiden väldigt bra, and I like it!
Lyckades hitta musiken som är på Afterlife i Mass Effect 2 så jag sitter och tankar gaytechno, det gillar jag och Kevin. Jag hoppas jag får fram lite skisser ikväll så jag har något att arbeta med!

19h37

Sitter och lyssnar på Pendulum och äter av mitt PÅSKGODIS Muha!
Fick ett sånt där stort ägg av mamma som jag alltid velat ha, haha, fastän jag snart är 21...? Man kan inte bli för gammal, ney.
Jag har tydligen mer eller mindre blivit tilldelad the task att göra affischen till utställningen i vår, which is kind of nice - I like.'Råkade' även äta en kebabtallrik med Maria på stan förut, 20 minuter innan jag skulle äta kvällsmat hemma, fick typ sämst samvete haha, knas!

18h51

Hej jag heter Josefine och idag har jag varit i skolan och gått ut med Maria och Marias hundar och sen har jag åkt bil till och från skolan och sen var jag i skolan också och där drack jag 4-6 muggar med cider och åt 50+ chips och sen hade vi bild och jag målade lite svart på min tavla sen imorse hann jag inte äta frukost knappt så jag var väldigt glad när det var lunch i skolan och då åt vi spaghetti och köttfärssås och det var gott och det ska jag äta igen snart!!!
För det är kvällsmat snart @ Herr Joacims hus och det är gott. Jag gillar mat.
Fick även mail från högskoleprovet (äntligen) idag, började bli lite orolig att jag inte anmält mig korrekt eller något... PHEW!
Och så gjorde jag en superawesome rebus idag i skolan, den sitter i bildsalen.. väldigt bra. Asbra.

Det har varit så otroligt fint väder idag, klockan är liksom 7 på kvällen och solen är fortfarande uppe? I sooo dig that!
Jag ser supermycket fram emot PÅSK, då ska jag gömma ägg och hitta ägg och äta det som är i äggen, förhoppningsvis är det kakor i äggen för jag har sagt att jag helst vill ha kakor i mina ägg, och inte godis. Jag är mer för kakor!!!

Och ja, WHIE, påsklov börjar på torsdag (efter en superlång skoldagstorsdag då) och sen! Lov! Men torsdagen blir boring, just sit @ home, snyft.

19h20

Usch jag somnade en stund förut i sängen, behöver nästan "sova middag" varje dag för att ens orka tänka på kvällen, haha.
Det värsta med att vakna är dock att det känns som man fått en sten i huvudet och tre i ögonen! Aw.

Nu måste jag snabba på mig och skriva klart om Scientologi, sen är kvällen MIN!

(Den här duden är också MIN!)

16h49

Uhuh vad bra det är när man kan ha strumpbyxor för barn, jag menar, svarta strumpbyxor på barnavdelningen kostar 40 kr, medans liknande för en grown up woman kostar 70-80? Tards I FOOL U ALL muhaha.
Min käraste katt Kevin och jag har doppat Ballerinor i mjölk idag och så har jag varit i skolan och gjort en rolig kluring på engelskan, jag gillar kluringar, me feel clever!

Sen var jag en sväng till Ungdomsmottagningen, ska skaffa kopparspiral? I am so nervous, bohoo!

Det är sjukt skrämmer mig livad religiösa rörelser skrämmer mig, vi har fått i uppgift att skriva om valfri religiös rörelse i Religion A, och jag "valde" (läs: blev mer eller mindre tilldelad) Scientologi. Citat som

"A civilization without insanity, without criminals and without war, where the able can prosper and honest beings can have rights, and where man is free to rise to greater heights, are the aims of Scientology."

skrämmer mig lite.

00h11

Oh oh oh vi gick till Ica och handlade lite, jag ville testa dessa nya Ballerina Kladdkaka, och, alltså... om man INTE doppar dom är dom useless. MEN! Sen doppade jag en, i kaffe. . . . HELLYEEEAH! Haha episka.
Köpte även den där nya Werter's Original chokladen, och den smälter faktiskt i munnen. YUMM!

Nu ska vi nog fortsätta spela Mass Effect 2, sjukt spännande även om jag inte tror vi kommit så långt. Tog en paus så jag kunde göra klart mina två engelskaläxor och, ja, doppa kakor i mitt kaffe.

18h09

Sitter hemma hos Herr Joacim och ser på när han spelar Mass Effect 2, very nice indeed!
Åt även jordnötssmör för första gången på många år förut, sjukt gott om man har smör till, GRR!

Jag heter Olle och jag är glad
jag gillar kola och kexchoklad!

00h40

Mah, tänkte att jag lägger upp en liten bild på vad som blev uträttat av mina studier förut:



Jag gillar att tiderna det står att jag skrivit inläggen är helt off, haha!
Det är helt sanslöst vad kaffe är vätskedrivande, jag vet inte huuur många gånger jag behövt besöka toaletten ikväll. Det börjar bli långtråkigt där, jag tycker i regel det är rätt tråkigt att gå på toaletten.
Jobbigt är det också, det är ju väldigt ansträngande att klä av sig hälften av kläderna man har, ge mig en snowp så jag också kan kissa snabbt!

Jag funderar starkt på att byta om mig till min andra dator och spela lite WoW, det börjar bli långtråkigt (vad långt och tråkigt allt är ikväll då?) att sitta framför TV:n.
Det är 'a double shot at love' med dom där två kvinnorna, och jag kollar knappt ändå. Jag äter mest Sweet Liquorice, de där med en pingvin på. Naaaajs. ~~
