Out, Damned Spot!

Sep 12, 2007 13:03

I know it appears I've fallen off the face of the earth, but I've simply been trying to put my college life in order again. I'm starting to fall into a rhythm of sorts, though it is one with rather less sleep than I need in order to function. The results are pretty hilarious, in a My Life is a Wretched Tragicomedy sort of way. Just this morning I ( Read more... )

..why the hell are you so talented?

I like your Lady McBethism. I would steal you away, lock you in my closet, and only feed you Cheetos and coffee, if I could. Make you draw for me all the time. I'd let you out once in a while, like when we had to promote our highly successful children's book. :D

Speaking of which. Do you do commissions? My apartment wall is terrifyingly bare. When I write, I need inspiration from the artists in my life, and well. The white walls right now are causing my muse to spazz. I went to DA and the prints were great, but they're not personal enough. I need personal.

I'm already acclimated to that lifestyle, seeing as my room at home is closet sized, coffee flows in my veins, and cheetos are mad tasty >:D

I've never done a real commission before, but that doesn't mean I can't start! (Actually, last night my roommate commissioned me, and seeing as I accepted I guess my stance is now Yes, I Do :D) I don't have any sort of system, but we can talk and as long as you take into consideration the fact that I've got a busy college schedule, I'd be more than happy to draw something :)

Good. Be wary of a 5'6 reddish brown red-head with tons of English books in her bag. I'm going to sweep you into my closet the first chance I get. :P

I completely understand about the college schedule- I'm in the middle of Grad School applications, Senior Seminars, and as many upper English classes I can possibly stuff into my already bursting schedule. Once you come up with prices, just let me know! We can figure things out from there.

Aha, you've doomed me to ducking whenever I go walking on campus. YOU COULD BE ANYONE.

Um, that's going to be me rather sooner than I'd like to contemplate. Oh my God. Screw the English major, I'm going to go watch TV.

Ahahaha prices. Right. I have no idea what's appropriate, really *_*

UH, your dorm is fabulously well-decorated, and your windows are pretty! Ours are just sort of giant blocks hacked out of the wall with screens and glass in front of them.

I like your self-portraits... and now that you've told us that you're Lady Macbeth they ARE a bit creepy. My classes are all, "now draw this leaf, but it has to be WORDS", and I'm all, "err, what?" So yes, it's been fun. :D

If it makes you feel better, my windows face a wall. They also face a crop circle in the grass (no kidding), and people can be seen walking/running around the rings AT ALL TIMES. So creepy.

Gnah, I am not a fan of portraits ;_; Add to that the fact that when I'm not smiling I look horribly depressed and filled with rage, and well...I want your classes.

*_____* I'm beginning to hate all of them except the 3rd one because I've LOOKED AT THEM FOR TOO LONG, so, you know. But thank you :D

So, next weekend one roommate will be going home and the other has her sister coming down, so it would be good for me but probably boring for you if you came. Also that's short notice, harrr. So really, come anytime?

oh my god, I could not stop laughing about this:

GUY: ...Lady Macbeth?
GUY: Crazed?
GIRL: Intense?
GUY: MURDEROUS.

Literally, could not. Poor you. Just, poor you.

I <3 your room. I want it. You are a much better decorator than me, you should come back and decorate my room. I totally knew what you were talking about when you mentioned the 5-headed lamp btw.

;____________; And I had to stand up there in front of the class and try not to look like a BLOODTHIRSTY MANIAC. Now I've told this story at east 10 times, and it never fails to get a pretty awesome reaction. Ahahaha.

My dad wrote a poem about it. I'm going to share, because it's...adorably cracktastic.

The Lady On The Left

Of necessity I fear I must agree
That she dost seem a foul murderess
Who might in still of night
Dispatch in heinous ways
Those who dare oppose her.

I will without delay
Forewarn the innocents at Bryn Mawr
So they might know immediately
The presence in their midst
Of such a one as she.

Oh, if only she could emulate
The peaceful smile
Of that fair maiden on her right.
Then all would be as should be be so
No blood be shed in Bryn Mawr's ancient halls.

Yet 'tis a wondrous hand
That can in such dispatch
Portray in fine detail and luscious line
The faces that I feel
Are gazing at me most intense.

I'm kind of in love with my room ♥

Thanks :) I sort of loathe doing self portraits...

Come live on my floor! You can have the rug that looks like cookie monster's pelt :D

That tree is right outside the entrance to my dorm. It's spiffy.
