These are the last couple months of my life, spent mostly away from the internets, in a nutshell.
Got Eva. She likes to eat things that shouldn't be eaten. Teaching her not to eat them only makes her crave them more. I found that same sandal, three days after this picture, torn up in the back yard. That was my favorite pair of sandals.
Three months after getting Eva. Old dog, Shelby, has to be put to sleep. Internal bleeding and neurological degeneration. She was almost 13 years old.
My first ABJD (Asian Ball Jointed Doll– yea, those hella expensive ones) arrived after two months of waiting. Her name is MiMi, in all her naked, default-black-eyes glory. You would think for the price these dolls are, they would give you a nice pair of eyes. Anyway, my mom was mortified.
I was supposed to be in this concert, damn it. This is my orchestra, the SSO, performing at St. Patricks Cathedral. Me and several others did not make it to the concert due to our bus getting into a pretty bad crash on the highway. We had to go to the hospital for injuries while everyone who was unharmed went on to the concert. It was much the suck.
Went to my first ever doll meet. The doll on the left is the tallest one I've ever seen, 70cm. Not to mention the sexiest xD…I can't imagine how much he cost. Probably three of my paychecks combined.
The first painting I've done in my college painting class that I've actually liked. All the rest suck. My painting class, in general, sucks. I don't like painting. To be frank, I hate it. It costs too much, is too messy, and too hard a medium to control.
MiMi is finally presentable to the public. Bought her eyes, clothing, everything. Still too cold outside to do a face-up. I think, to date, I have spent more than $300 on ABJD. If I would have known how addicting a hobby it would be…nevermind, I still would have done it.
Went on trip to Kentuck Knobb, a Frank Lloyd Wright house in PA. This is the view from the hillside of the house. Sometimes I wonder why I don't just up and move to PA. It's gorgeous up there, unlike Maryland.
Trip to Frank Lloyd Wright's, likely most famous house, Falling Water. You've probably heard of it. It's pretty famous. Angelina Jolie took Brad there for his birthday last year.
Eva, now at 9 months old, and already 80 pounds. Dear lord. And she's getting bigger. I picked out a monster labrador. She's so tall, and long, and…just…built. She still likes to chew things that shouldn't be chewed.
The most recent drawing I've been working on. Lately I've been doing a lot of fantasy-based drawings involving babies being stolen. Anyone got an Freudian-like explanation for that? Should be very, very interesting.
Anyway, that's it D:

Wow.
Good job!!
That doll gives me the creeps.
Cute dog though!
It gave my mom the creeps too. She asked me if it was some form of voodoo Dx
Bad dog, interesting hobby. You’ve been keeping busy.
My last month in a nutshell: Did homework. End.
That concert is creepy. Sounds like they’re chanting something.
Wow awesome drawing.. You got the shading really well done
Froggy, that’s because
they are chanting. It’s the Hail Mary in Polish. It’s really, really powerful in concert. I think that Angelus is beautiful D:
The whole concert wasn’t creepy, though. We also did Kilar’s
Vocalise, from the 9th Gate. Which is probably the most beautiful song featuring soprano in the entire world, in my humble opinion D:
Try that again 😛
LOL yea. Need to edit that.
EDIT: edited.
Quang: Thanks. Shading with mechanical pencil is a bitch xD
Ahha. Now that I know how much that doll costs I understand why I saw some people freak out and grabbed their torches (It was at night) to survey their dolls when some kids happened to knock them down.
*wonders how the eyes get stuffed into the head* I saw a doll gathering at a coffee house the other time when I was meeting up with advertisers. I was trying not to stare. ^^;
Love the drawing, your dog looks adorable despite the habit, and when I was enjoying that Vocalise vid from your comment, my mum walked past and asked “你在播什么鬼歌啊？” Literally -> “What ghost music are you playing?” =.=
LOL.
But un-literally, isn’t it more like just a derogative term like crazy/weird/strange?
Those ABJDs look pretty crazy. o_____o;
And your dog is adorable. XD
Repty: At the last doll meet that I went to, a lady with very dirty hands went to go pick up one of the dolls on display (the only bad thing about having a doll meet in the food court of a mall), and I think seven of us at once all shouted “NOOO!” at the same time xD…she gave us a nasty look and walked away, but hey, I don’t think she knew that she was about to pick up a $600 doll wearing a $80 outfit o_o;
The most expensive doll I’ve ever seen, actually in front of me, is
this one, fully equipt (see those drop down menus? select every option for each of them xD check out THAT price…). My friend was an idiot and spent her college money on it. She insists it was worth it, though. And I actually have to agree with her. That doll is a monthly doll (only available for one month). So in a few months, her price will probably tripple in the market. It’s actually a great financial investment, who would have thought? o_o
Silver: the back of the doll’s head opens up, usually closed using magnets :3…and yea, the Vocalise is kind of…ghost-like o.o
Wow… expensive doll. Looks like an expensive hobby. That succubus looks awesome, though. If you really want to talk about an expensive hobby, try cars, haha. Initial investments range from a few thousand to millions, and you can easily spend more than what you paid for the car on mods (intake, exhaust, headers, aero kits, wheels, tires, brakes, turbos, superchargers, etc.)
My ex’s family got and returned two different dogs while I was dating her. The first flipped out and barked at EVERYTHING. It took him ten minutes to calm down enough to let me bribe him with treats the first time I met him. The second dog was super hyper, which in and of itself wasn’t bad, but it made any sort of obedience impossible. I had a love-hate relationship with the second one. She was really fun, but she had a knack for busting into my ex’s room at the worst times. It also ate her awesome pink fuzzy slippers.
Amazing. @.@
And as you see, the wild Vicelin uses spaces in order to intimidate other bloggers. xD
Kewl dog by the way. O:
… How did they post Chinese characters? =(
I think I am going to have nightmares tonight 😐
It’s weird, just this morning, I was thinking of this big doll i got for Christmas one year, and I ended up dreaming that it killed me and my family.
Ever since then..dolls have scared me.
I want an ABJD sooooo muuch! But my mom laughed in my face when she saw the price =( She looked at me then laughed again t_T *mums are evil*
Awwww your dog looks adorable!! 8D though she seems like and arm-full *get it lulz?*
I hope you’re okayz what with the crash o-o
If i had money i’d pay for that drawing there. no lies
Nice to hear from you again. Sorry about the bus accident, but glad you’re having fun with your dog. Get on MSN so we could chat some time, but if you’re still banning yourself from that crap, then I understand xD. Your drawings just keep getting better and better 🙂 Alright that’s it for now, I’m just on here to write fanfics anyways, so yea, I’ll be going back to studying for Calculus and Economics. Bye!
-=The Nazgul=-
*shoves vinnie*
I believe I will have the last say! Afterall, it IS my blo-*looks at title*
lol my bad xD anyhoo, if i get a job and get paid *which might happen im waiting for the reply letter or w/e* i’ll ask about he buying thing! =D
if i already haven’t blown it all on an ABJD….xO
I HASNT TALKED TO YOU IN FOREVER!! D; and now i cant remember if i told u my new cell number or not…if not, then thats my fault xD
lol vince and dayna love
STFU Dest. Or I will kill you dead.
Silver: the doll market is actually doing really well. And sorry, I should have put that in a time frame or something. The price of the doll would go up that much after only being discontinued for a month. That’s how much I’ve seen them go for, anyway ^^;
Dee: You should check out Angel of Dream or Bobobie. They have some of the most inexpensive dolls. But Bobobie is mostly elves. I preffer AoD. I have two tiny sized BJDs from them and I’m saving up right now for my first mini (1/4th size), it’s going to be Wang Zi’s head on a MT-female body. I already contacted the company and they said they could assemble it for me that way, I was so happy xD…but now I have to pull $200 out of my ass…
And no, I don’t have your new cel number. You should send me a PM.
Nazzy: It’s not so much that I’ve banned myself from them, more like I just…forget to log on whenever I’m online xD…I should set MSN and AIM to log me on when my computer starts up, but It’s not high on my priority list.
