Ugh see I follow some of the video reviewers I like on Twitter and I started following a certain person a few weeks back. I'm kinda regretting now as over half of her posts make me mad or sad or both. Ok she's not that good at making videos ( I only watch for the movie bits and not her gags as they are pretty bad) but she keeps complaining about it and then wonders why no one watches her. She does not try and improve at least by the looks of her videos at least.

There is all so a bunch of stuff about gender and Straight people that she gos on about but last time I ranted about that kinda thing on her I got attacked so I'ma not going to do that.

I can draw/sketch, I can ink...but damn all I cannot color my pictures in...well, I can color them, but they don't look very good. I really wish I knew someone with CE4 here (where I live) who can come show me WTF to do...Part of it I know is that I've so little time to spend coloring, and another is that I get impatient with my slow progress.

I see so many pretty pictures, so many different styles, so much talent, and I really with I knew how to do it!

So much school work that needs to get done by Monday. So little time to do it. Why was I not a smart child and do this earlier? ><;

Because there's no motivator quite like last-minute panic?

Because you're preparing for the typical workplace environment where doing things early just means you have to redo it because the requirements change at the last possible minute?

Because you, like most(?) of us, prefer to procrastinate?

(Good luck with it - now get off the forum and get crackin'!) ;)

I know I've been absent from these forums for ages but I remember coming here, ranting, looking at art and pet pictures and enjoying all of those things so here goes.

I moved a few months ago from Boston to another state. My new apartment neighbors are AWFUL PEOPLE. They have a dog and I just want to ASPCA or someone non-kill to take it away from them. They leave him on their balcony with no food or water for hours on end and he cries all day long. He's dirty and they let him pee on the entrance ways and stairwells and I'm pretty sure he has fleas because my indoor cats and apartment are now infested. I discovered this infestation a few days after the dog was left with no tags in the shared stairwell/front door area and he tried getting into my apartment in the hopes of getting out of the summer heat. I pushed him out and gave him some water and leftovers while trying to get them to come claim him. I wasn't trying to be cruel I was just worried about him attacking my cats or them attacking him. I pounded on their door for about 10 minutes or more yelling "Your dog is outside again, please come get your dog, you can't leave him here!" I called a service that picks up stray/abandoned animals to come get him but his negligent owners finally took him inside only because one of them came home late that night. I know there were people home because after watching the girl come in two people came out so they could smoke in the stairwell. They just didn't care enough to come get their dog when I called them. I feel bad for the dog and I feel bad for myself because their problem is bleeding into my apartment and because "I have pets and I can't prove that I didn't cause it" I have to treat my apartment for fleas...oh joy. Thanks a lot for the assistance there landlady. I have indoor cats who never go out and are on preventatives. I also clean constantly because I am not a slob like those people with their garbage filled balcony and poor neglected dog. Why me?

I tried. I just can't finish it all. I've already had a nervous breakdown. I feel sick and exhausted and headachey and I have so much work to do and I just can't. It is not possible. There is nothing I can possibly do.

That's not fun. >.< I know you probably have more to do but sit down and do something else for a while. If you're feeling sick, that might be best. You can try to slog through some more later, maybe when you're feeling a little better.

Oh, How I wish I could draw anatomy right. It looks so wonky, and weird. Now I just want to rip my hair out. This is for a friend, Who's birthday is coming up soon. She is a very, very talented artiest, and I want to make her something very nice...
but the stupid anatomy...

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH. Why must building computers be so freaking particular?! Oh, and thanks, Antec, for 'going green' and not including a cord in your power supplies. BLAR. I'll be killing more trees just to get the damned cord, too.

Minnie cought a bird today so I locked her in the conservatory with it. Did not want her messing the house up but I did not realise Lucy was out side so when she came into the conservatory all hell broke loose and I tried stopping the fight and now my arms look like some emo kids arms.

Then I did my best to save the bird they had it under the sofa. Nearly got it untill Minne zoomed under my legs and got it right before I did >.> She ran outside with it so I locked her outside. Now Lucy is inside and out of the way.

Eh you try and save the things they catch but somedays you just can't!

My old wiener dog (dachshund), also named Lucy :lol: Once brought me a rabbit head... And my cats back when we still had them used to bring me snakes and mice and such that they found in empty house lots.

So I've been waiting like two years now for GW2 to come out. My copy should arrive tomorrow. But, of course, mum decided she wanted to switch internet providers from Sky to BT because we now have the fibre optic cables available in our street. They decided they would come and install it on the 28th August. AKA. Tomorrow. This was super awesome for me because I get to have super-fast internet speeds right as I start the awesome new MMO. But there's a catch. BT was meant to deliver the internet hub last week, but it never arrived. And because of BT being closed all weekend and because today is a bank holiday, we can't phone them at all until tomorrow to ask what's going on. So, chances are that the hub won't get delivered tomorrow and they will have to reschedule the dates to come and install it, meaning I could be left without internet for god knows how long THE FUCKING DAY THAT GUILD WARS 2 ARRIVES AT MY HOUSE. URRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRG.

I'm seriously praying that the hub turns up tomorrow and they can install it fine and dandy. Because I've been so excited for GW2 I've been dreaming about it. ):

Was supposed to play GW 2 with my friend but all he does is complain when he logs on. But if I play without him on my engineer he complains. Can I play with someone a little less whiny please? Also he is still acting like just because I'm not working right now (am dealing with medical issues) he can get me to do anything and everything around the apartment. He hasn't washed a dish since we moved in here 5 months ago. He doesn't clean anything and if I don't do it the stuff will sit around and fester. Because lord knows I have ALWAYS WANTED ROACHES.

But on the bright side I should be starting culinary school for patisserie and baking in November. So at least that is good.

Bf-ish is coming over tomorrow. After a lot of conversing we've decided we just got too heated up and just messed ourselves up. Gonna work on trying to return things to normal. So nervous though, i just want everything to be normal. I dont want to end up all the way at square one with things. Im always willing to drop something for him, i just hope he can do the same.

I really just can't spend much time around people. I went to readmission for school and met up with some friends there. We hung out and talked for a while, and eventually, like the mature seniors (in high school) we are, we headed to a nearby playground. I ended up leaving early and felt sick for about an hour after. Had to just lay down. Eep. >.<
