Jack Frost

I think that you may say that I have switched from my Harry Potter phase to a Jack Frost phase. I only watched the movie yesterday and I already drew Jack Frost :3 I'm SUPER proud of it because I think I got his expression just right! The only thing I regret a little is that the shading is a little over top... but who cares! I still love it! (and him!) 

I AM IN LOVE

Today I FINALLY got to see "Rise of the Guardians" by DreamWorks and I LOVE IT!! I was almost about to cry when Sandy died and I laughed so hard when The Easter Bunny was talking about his skill of Thai Chi! I fell in love with Jack Frost's good looks and personality and I melted at how adorable baby tooth is! I recommend this movie to all of those who like to dream and wonder because this movie is just that! I'm pretty sure that some of you are going "How old is she? In her teens? That's too old to appreciate a cartoon!" but 

I. DON'T. CARE. 

I love DreamWorks so much because they still make me dream! They teach me something new every time and I fall in love with all their characters! I feel like a small child again exploring the innocent wonders of the world and the small details of what we might call "ordinary". These movies show us more than finding love at first sight on a handsome prince! The viewer can tell that these movies were made with care and affection. 

So, after having digested my fangirling over Jack Frost and DreamWorks, I think you have guessed that there might be some drawings of them coming up. Not yet because I only finished the movie about ten minuets ago, but yeah, that will definitely be coming up. 

Also, I have a new drawing for you, well, sketch. I was getting so frustrated with all my other drawings that I decided to make something simple and funny. More of these may come up because they are way less effort than doing a full on drawing, and because of this, there will be more drawings sooner. In this sketch I decided to draw James though it wasn't originally supposed to be him. He was just supposed to be a random guy but, I felt like he needed a deeper personality. So I added glasses. And he became James Potter. Just by magic.

I also thought he would look cute with a plaster across his nose :3 Detail makes all the difference.... ! Right...?

And one last note; There are new backgrounds on the Freebies page! Sorry for any technical difficulties in the past but now they're all fixed! I just need to put up the instructions again so if you need aid, please leave a comment! Thanks!

P.S: I think the moon told me that Jack Frost and I should be together! 

P.S.S: If you're all confused about this "Rise of the Guardians" thing, here's the trailer. I'm ready to bet all my Easter eggs that you'll love it!

And here's my favorite part of the movie:

Missing some Fingers...

I'm sure that all of you have at least one or twice felt like your toes or fingers were going to fall off from the cold. Well, multiply that by ten over a time period of approximately two days. Painful. Very very painful. Over the last weekend I went on an International Award hike (here's something that might help you if you don't know what it is: click here). It was so much fun and a great experience except that my fingers felt as if they could be snapped off if you bent them too much. Now, before you go thinking "But why didn't you bring gloves?" I did. I brought a pair of ski gloves which were nice and war, except for the fact that I brought two left hands.

 

*Biggest face palm man kind has ever or will ever encounter*

 

Luckily I was not the only form of stupidity on the campsite that day; my friend Athena made exactly the same problem except with right hands so we switched gloves. The next problem was that her gloves were not really fit for camping. They were really nice and everything (I know that Athena will be reading this so I can't say any monstrosities on her gloves) but they were everything but warm. Also, I'm right handed so I had to constantly take my glove off to clip things in, zip things up (By the way, there are probably a thousand zips and clips on one camping bag, no kidding! My hands were somehow shedding tears by the end of and hour) or use it for cooking and other chores. So, even if the glove was warm, it never came to any use because I was taking it on and off every few minuets and/or seconds. This all resulted in my hand growing double its size. Literally. My nice, thin, elegant hands turned into a plate of egg and sausages. So, not only could I not use my fingers at the end of the day, but they wouldn't fit into my glove properly. I would have to ask my friend Jiwon to zip up my coat or even squeeze me fat fingers into my glove. I felt utterly useless by the end of the day which is not a nice feeling. I think I'v been scarred for life because every time my fingers feel cold, in my head I'm thinking "NO! It's comming back to get me and kill me alive! There is no escape! Run for your lives fingers! Run for your lives!"

 

You want to know what I blame this on? I blame this all on the earth thinking it's OK to snow in the middle of March! I understand that snow if fun and pretty and pure, (at the beginning, not when it's melting) but right now I think that most of us humans agree that WE NEED SPRING TO ARRIVE! (My fingers are nodding their heads right now... if they have heads... I don't know...) I need to feel the warmth from the sunshine and the buds starting to sprout. I know that I will regret this later but I even want the flies to come back and do their annoying buzzing sounds! And I want the mosquito's to kill my skin with itchy red spots! I WANT SPRING! I'm sick of all this snow and cold wind and everything else that starts with a c and rhymes with -old.

 

So after all this complaining I think it's time to put an end to this post. I'm sure that most of you have the same opinion as me regarding the cold, but if we all unite as one WE CAN DEFEAT IT! AS A TEAM, AND AS A FAMILY! OK, too far, but still, I think we could defeat it... somehow. Let me brainstorm on that...

Snow Day Episode 2!

So, I woke up 40 minutes earlier this mourning (6:45 if you want me to be precise) because I heard my Dad walking down the stairs, I got dressed and went down to breakfast 20 minutes earlier just to be told "You have no school today... again". So here I am writing this post at 9:15 in the mourning starting to feel tired already when I could have slept in for the second day in a row. Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah. Life is so unfair. I was so proud of myself for waking up so early and now... bleh. But the good news is that IT'S A SNOW DAY BABY! and TWICE IN A ROW! I guess it's a way of saying sorry for waking me up so early. I don't know who or what is saying sorry, but yeah, something is. Who said that life was unfair huh? Huh? (Totally not me, I mean, pfff, I totally didn't write that two sentences ago, no way!) The surprising thing though is that it didn't even snow over night... I guess the roads were still too icy for anyone to go anywhere. Anyway, I might be posting a lot today... out of boredom or just 'cause I like posting stuff :3 I also might not post anything today because of my very developed talent of not doing anything when I have the chance to. Like my homework. Had all of yesterday to do it and I only did an hour of it at seven in the evening. It's hard being a teenager. All teenagers will understand, anybody who's not a teenager forgot or hasn't experienced it yet. We're a sort of outcast to society... Miss understood, asked to act like adults but treated like children. Somebody should write a book about that... Anybody who would like to use this idea, go ahead and take it. I will probably only get to the third page of the book and give up writing the rest. Do tell me when it comes out though so I can check it out ;)

Anyway, I'm halfway through a drawing right now so that will be posted in the near future. I think drawing is the only thing I don't get lazy at... I always seem to be excited to draw... hm. Maybe that's what makes it my passion... I'm also hesitating on posting some pictures of some dresses I bought yesterday... hm. I don't want this to become a fashion blog though... I want it to be multi-gender and I'm not really into fashion... I like dressing nice but it hasn't become a hobby of mine just yet! But I really like the dresses and I want to show them to the world... hm. See, this is a perfect example of what teenagers go through on a day to day basis! Proof of how difficult it is to be a teen along with some more important stuff too. Like exams. Only teens have to go through them. Yeah, see how unfair it is! Told you. I feel like this post is longer than it should be :/ I'm gonna stop writing it. It's too long and I know the majority of you won't read most of it but you will never know BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

P.S: Had too much caffeine this mourning...

What is Wrong with this World?!?!

It's March and there's 10 cm of snow outside! What is wrong with you world?? Though, I don't mind it so much 'cause it was a snow day! Woop! Woop! Looooooooooooooove snow days!! We also had a mini blizzard in our garden because our house is stuck between two other houses. This meant that the snow kept spiraling 'round and around and around and it made the ground really uneven. But it was cool! Here's the video. You can't see it very well but hey! It's better than nothing!

I also had a bit of fun editing some pictures I took...

Give Us a Spin!

Hey guys! So coming up in my life is the middle school prom (I bet most of you who are older than me are going "Laaaaame. High school prom is sooooo much better!" and all others who are younger or the same age as me are going "OMGOMGOMGOMG! This is so exciting!!") and - I think that I'm speaking for all girls here - the dress might me one of the most exciting parts of the whole event. Now personally, I am a bit of a tomboy which means that it is literally THE HARDEST THING to find... EVER. I really really really want to wear a dress (because I am not a complete tomboy, you might say I'm a hybrid...) but I haven't liked ANY dresses I've seen so far! All of my friends have theirs and I'm in my corner rocking myself back and forth thinking If I don't get a move on, I'm going to be going to Prom in a dirty sweater and jeans! This thought terrifies me. Not really, but it makes it sound more dramatic... Anyway, so I talked to my mom the other day about this HUGE crisis that's happening in my life right now (because finding a dress for prom is way more important than exams. Totally.) and she suggested making my own. This might sound quite expensive or whatnot but according to my mom, it would be cheaper than buying a dress (in Europe, everything is ridiculously expensive. Especially clothes) and it would be the perfect size. It would be completely unique (none of that awkwardness when somebody has the same dress as you), there would be nothing that I don't like about it (because I designed it myself) and I can choose the fabric so that it will be nice and comfortable! So here are the designs I drew, they're different colors because I don't know which one to pick... The girl I drew looks like me (with slightly redder hair because I like red heads :3 ) so please leave a comment on what you think about it and which color you prefer... Can't make up my mind!!!!

Freebies and Background Problems...

So, here are 2 announcements:

1. About two days ago I made a really cool background for my blog and it worked perfectly fine but then I changed it to see if another background worked and ever since then my blog has been annoying me and my background doesn't show up. Here'e the problem. Whenever I put the CSS code for my background in the HTML gadget in layout the background still won't come up. It works when I put a background that I downloaded but not mine. The code's not wrong because I managed to make it work a few days ago and it looked fine... PLEASE HELP if you know how to fix this!! I don't like my blog looking so blank :'(

2. I found out how to make backgrounds for blogs (as you may have noticed in the first paragraph) and am planning to make more and give them away for free! I'm going to make a new page called Freebies where you'll be able to download my backgrounds on your very own blog! This will probably come out when I fix my background problem which may or may not take a lot of time... Also, there might not be many to start off with (2 or 3 most probably) but I will be adding more over time. If any of you have any suggestions for backgrounds I could do, please leave a comment below!

Here's a sneak peak at some backgrounds that will be coming out soon, I'm still editing them so that they will fit better into your blog.

Harry Potter Phase

You might just about claim that I am having a Harry Potter phase. For the past few weeks my main subject for my drawings have been Harry Potter characters ( most being James and Lily. They're my otp :3 ) and here I will present you a new one to add to the collection. This will also probably not be the last so YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! This time I drew Hermione and Ron because they're both so awesome and I needed to detach from the whole Jily phase ( which is a subsection of the Harry Potter phase fyi ). I also came up with a really cool caption/phrase/quote/whatever to go with it which I am super proud of! More than the actual drawing to be honest :3 So here it is:

- Will you love me forever?
- Until the day I die, or worse, get expelled.

The drawing looks weird because their bodies are out of proportion. I only found that out when I was halfway through drawing their clothes so I couldn't be bothered to erase everything and start again. Though there is one thing that I think I did particularly well at and that is their hands. They actually look normal in this picture and not like weird potatoes with awkward stems growing out of them. Also, note to all readers, I am probably going to make an edited version of this drawing soon so this may (understand that this is in bold to make you realize the word may) pop up in the near or far future. Or never because I am an obvious professional of doing nothing. Before I leave you I stumbled on this video which I think some of you may like. I laughed so hard at this by the way so you should too! ;) Bye!

P.S: I just love this :')
