Man, some dumb shit went down on Muni on my ride home today...after I got home I was really planning on blogging on this whole tangent but....*breathe in, breathe out*...I've had time to chill...and the last of these Thanksgiving leftovers are really mellowing me out=) So instead, I'll just let ya in on what happened...well, as you guys know I had class today, and that went by well...There was a costume carnival at the building where models dress up in a certain theme and people can draw/paint or take photos of them for references(I already got 2 people to make me copies of their pics=). It was really festive with the period music, furniture and of course, costumes. The theme this year was John Singer Seargent(a famous portrait artist from the 1900 I believe). So my instructor allowed us to skip the first portion of class to go and draw...soo I went with Audrey and some other classmates up there.
The rest of the day went by pretty cool..I was really tired...3 hours of sleep last night...totally my fault I kno=) But damn, I was like..."huh? Draw nekkid guy? I'd rather sleep...*snore snore*." I dropped my charcoal pencil a few times when dozing off...and yeah, I played it off..haha. "Yeah...BAD charcoal pencil...see what happens to you when you're bad? I drop you on the ground.." Anyhoo...after class, I had a few things to get done. Go get a new Muni pass...which I did....go check my e-mail to see if Dennis was down to check out that new room for rent...but he didn't get back to me in time....and pay my phone bill...the damn thing is over due...and now I'm gettin' charged up the arse....damn near 60 bones...its nutz. Yea yeah...so I made a few calls home...a few LONG calls to SD....but 60 bones? Goodness. I had everything set, but I left the stamps at home...yeah, thats what sleep deprivation will do to ya. So I headed over to Stacey's Book Store. I intended to pick up a book on the business side of art...a book basically detailing how NOT to screw yourself when you get out there in the real world. I found one that looked pretty informative...about aritsts rights to their work, and strategies when negotiating contracts, etc...but I decided to hold out and ask my Digital Illustration Instructor if he had any suggestions on books first...I didn't wanna just drop 40 bones on a book prematurely. So this decision eventually led me down to the underground muni station on my way home.
First of all, my train didn't come for a long time...a LONG time...I was down there waiting with a bunch of other people for the same train for about 40 minutes...tired as hell...hungry, and sleepy. So finally when it arrived, I got in...and what happens when trains lag, they get filled REALLY quick with people who've been waiting just like I was. So there I am, with my big fuckin' art bag(man, I hate laggin' this sucker around...), standing near the doorway since all the seats were takin'. Well, as we went from station to station, things just got more and more crowded...till I was literally butt rubbing with complete strangers....luckily I was standing next to a cute girl, but NO! I didn't enjoy it one bit....I seriously just wanted to get HOooome...to chill, to sleep, to eat....ahh...*bump*nudge* More and more people, until basically things were filled to capacity. I looked over my shoulder at the door and there was maybe 3 more people trying to get in...a semi burly white guy, who at first glance, just looks like an unassuming fellow...had glasses, buzz cut, not the best sense of fashion, looked to be about 25, and sorta like a baby face. Behind him was a short little asian dude who looked about 38(in asian years...yeah, those damn asian folks don't age like they're supposed to!). As they tried to get in, burly white guy(we'll call him Buzz) turned around to little asian dude(we'll call him Zip) and said, "Quit pushing, can't you see there's no more room?" And man, EVeryone was shoving...they were the last two out of the door. Then I see Buzz's body jerk a bit like someone pushed him, then like lightning he turns around and yells, "What the fuck did you push me for?! I'll knock you the fuck out man, I fuckin' knock you out motherfucker!!" All the while, he's got his fist up and makes "mock punches" at Zip's face...going through with the punching motion, stopping just short of Zip's face...he did this several times as he yelled explicitives. Zip had a smile on his face...didn't say a word, but y'kno how some people just smile whether they're happy or sad, pissed or tired...they're face just naturally forms a smile? I think Zip was one of these fellows...I could tell he was scared and pissed. I'm assuming he didn't speak much/any english at all, since he said nothing through the ordeal. Then as the doors were closing, Buzz jumped back into the train....and right then, I saw his body jerk again...Zip tried to get in one last push before the doors would close!...sorta like a mouse against a goliath...just taking a pot shot. And just like before Buzz turned around fast as lighting and threw out a punch intended to be landed...but Zip was too quick...like a mouse he was, and he jumped just out of his reach. Someone else at the train stop said something to him and he immediately went off on him too...something about his mother, and him being fathered by a goat or whatnot...anywayz, by this time, the doors of the train had tried to close several times but Buzz's body was in the way...there were groans and "quit holding up the train!" coming from inside...so finally he let go and stepped inside...I took a look around to see people's reactions...most people were just acting oblivious to it, and a few were rolling their eyes, or giving Buzz dissatisfied looks.
Later at the Castro stop, a whole lot of people were getting off and on...and so the pushing and shoving began again...yeah, its uncool, but some people just gotta push or they won't get out in time...and others, well, what can ya say...when people get packed in like sardines, courtesy and all that jazz goes right out the window. So...*surprise* Buzz gets pushed around again...not on purpose really, but just because he's standing near the door. "Quit pushing me!!" *several passengers mumble something back* "Fuckin' faggots! All you fags! Mutha fuckers!...lalala...etc" Okay dumbass...you're in San Francisco calling people fags...are u just ignorant that this is the gay capitol of the country, or did you just decide to piss off a large percent of the population for kicks. Aiy...anywayz...a big black guy gets on who happened to be gay...was saying something to Buzz...like, "There's plenty of us around, and if you don't like it, you can walk....I don't know what you're doing in a place like this if you've got something against us..." He said it in a amiable tone...totally cool about it...and off goes Buzz, "Shut the fuck up fag...." Some more about dicks, and butts, and stuff I'd rather not type...but anywayz...things begin to thin out in terms of people...more and more are getting off, and I finally find myself a seat. Buzz finds one across from me...
A few stops and about 10 minutes later when things are pretty much back to normal, on walks this girl with a bunch of grocery bags and everything....I've been observing Buzz the whole time, and he was talking under his breathe for a bit...but he'd cooled off already....when that girl walked on he said, "Do you want to sit down?" She declined politely and he meekly nodded his head, "okay".
Hmm...my take? Buzz has a chip on his shoulder the size of St. Louis. I think he was probably a decent guy back in the day but something changed him...kinda reminds me of Edward Norton's character in American History X. I also believe that he KNOWS who he's become, and he's not alltogether thrilled with it...but something's keeping him from being that guy he wants to be....yeah yeah, conjecture and assumption...but thats what I get from him. Damn knucklehead.=)
Anywayz...yeah, I was kinda riled up a bit earlier, but now I'm cool as a cucumber in september baby...on to other news.
DUDE, I get some pretty WIERD visitors yo...serious. Okay, example...other day, I'm checking my webcounter thingie to see where some of you guys are being referred from....and remember, I'm totally serious. One dude(gal?) entered a search into Google.com for "NADS SHAVING INGREDIANTS" and was directed to my site. I shit you not. I guess I can't blame the dude...I mean, when u're curious, you're curious right? And so he happens to like Nads line of hair removal products...and surely just wanted to be sure of its safety by checking its ingrediants....now. WHo...is the dumbass in this scenerio....GOOGLE PEOPLE! THIS IS NOT NADS CENTRAL...I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT NADS OTHER THAN THAT HAIRY WOMEN HAVE AN AFFINITY TOWARD IT! DO NO DIRECT ANY NADS INTERESTED WEB SURFERS TO MY SITE UNLESS THEY ARE NOT TOO HAIRY AND CUTE.....thank you....that is all. *bow*
Hah...okay. And just for the record, hairy chicks are A-ok with me..=) I mean, hairs natural, and damnit, if they don't feel like shaving, there's no law is there?? I mean, us guys can let hair grow in every body orffice we have and we're still sexy...haha...kidding. But really, its all good with me. I really haven't thought about hair as being a factor in dating a girl, cuz I've never had to deal with hard hitting questions like that!...and uhh...thats cool.=P But girls, whatever you guys do that keeps ya feelin' good...keep on keepin' on=)

This is one of my favorite pictures...We call it the "ultimate roadtrip picture"...it was taken about 100 miles north of San Diego. Ghetto scanned a la Jeremy's webcam(nevermind those 2 thumb tacts at the bottom=). We were headed on our way to a rave in central California...LOong drive...but it was great. We passed by a bunch of other people on their way to the same place...how could we tell? There was a strange neo-hippie vibe about 'em...beads, smiles, and loud music...heh. Okay, so we were all in the same boat.=) There was one truck that we kept playing follow the leader with...in the bed of the truck, they bolted car seats facing backwards...in the seats, a guy and a girl...with blankets...heh...yeah, we got pictures of that too. Everytime we got close, we'd wave and smile...its a wonder we didn't get into a car accident the way Jeremy was driving...hah...(nono...I've got faith in your drivin' skills bro=) We'd turn off the aircon everytime we were going uphill to get that extra "umpf" to make it up at top speed...Jerome was in the backseat just vibin' and eatin' some filipino sausages...geez that shit was oily! haha...Chris and Mark were back there feastin' it up too....ever since I've moved up to San Francisco, I've become a tupaware whore like Jerome...EVERything in tupaware...I even eat dinner in tupaware, when I've got perfectly fine bowls and plates in the kitchen...heh. Mark and Chris were really excited since they'd never been...and lookin' at this picture just brings back those good feelins...brings back the vibe, just like a good song can bring back those memories.

"Man, y'kno what? Someone arbitrarily sent an IKEA catalog to my house...so while I was microwaving some grub, I took a gander...now, I've only heard about IKEA, and all I basically knew was that they were a furniture store....I took a look inside, and there was some very diggable, and affordably priced stuff! Man, just lookin' around in there...made me wanna decorate my room....I was gonna ask you if I "sold out" or something by diggin' on IKEA..heh...I don't kno how you interior designers view the mainstream stuff=P But yeah, I was thinkin' about one of those computer "cart" thingies...to put my pride and joy on...its been sitting on this bucket long enough...it deserves better dagnabit!"
12/1/2000 01:56:51 AM
Man, I MUST be getting old...I walked in the door, went to wash my hands, took off my watch, and proceeded....not more than 5 minutes later, I go to look at my watch for the time, and its GONE...I DON'T KNOW WHERE I PUT IT....GAH! A self induced delimma...I hate these! Noone to blame...=)
Well, today was the big day...handed in the movie poster and got some great feedback. I woke up around 9:45, and got out of the house by 10:30...stopped by Kinko's to make a print out of my file, and surprisingly, it went well...the print out looks faithful to it's onscreen version. I got to perspective class right on time...now this is the class that I've been lagging in...unfortunately. Great class, dope teacher, but sometimes its one or the other...do this or that...and so the perspective hw got tossed about on my schedule till it fell off=X Heh...but its cool...I did it in class...I kinda surprised myself, I did it all in class, within like 2 hours...usually I spend much longer, and albeit this particular hw isn't exactly up to par with my usual work, its decent enough that I'd turn it in. My jovial, happy go lucky instructor has seemed kinda down as of late...tired...not his usual self these past weeks...wonder if everything's cool.
After that class ended at 5:30, I was off downtown for my favorite class....digital illustration. There were some interesting posters from fellow students...and the feedback I got on mine was good stuff. My instructor is really cool...man, I just realized I really look up to the guy. He's a dope blend of optimist, yet realist....creative and artistically he's a badass....with business sense. I dig that. There's a lot of people in this world that are either or, but I think its pretty rare to find both. I really pay attention when he critques other student's homework...he's encouraging when ya need it, and he'll humble you when ya need it(which is next to never=) He definately knows his stuff, but I think above all else...He's got the passion. He calls it "the hunger". And I can totally see it when he speaks. Yet he's got that "friend" kinda quality about him...an approachability.
Well in class today, he went off on a few tangents...which btw, I think are one of the best things about this class=) Usually about the business and his experiences in it. The stuff he says just strengthens a lot of the stuff I already believed and introduces me to some new stuff....like the business side of things. Before I was sorta oblivious to it...kinda had the attitude that "things'll just work out". But I'm becoming more aware...especially how a lot of artists get screwed over. It sucks buts its true. So yeah, thats one thing I'm gonna work on....
When I got home, I saw Cherry....she was washing dishes...so we talked for a bit, and she asked me if I wanted to move out with them. Hmm....I wouldn't be opposed to it, of course it depends largely on the place though...but hey, they're cool...kinda messy=) But cool, no doubt. We'll see how those things go.
Man, I finally have a laid back night tonite...what to do? Hmm....dang....LAZY stuff! Stuff I needed to get around to...heh...like this here game! Oh, and a few e-mails...some drawings for a side project I'm doing as a present for a friend. And oh, did I tell you guys? I've been commissioned to design a mural for a wall in the room of my yet to be born nephew!=) How cool is that? Scenerio comes to mind: kid...stares at thing...day and night...it becomes part of his youth....everytime he turns on the light, there it is....heh...thats so cool! Cuz I remember stuff like that when I was a youngin'...hope they use my design. We'll see how that goes. He left it completely up to me, but he suggested like Winnie the Pooh or something...which is cool. I'll do a few thumbnails. I gotta write an e-mail to him. I get the feeling he thinks I can just pull a sketches outta my ass...heh...not the case. I wanna do it right, I gotta research, come up with a strong composition. I need to know the dimenions, the feeling I want...y'kno.=) So I gotta let him know its gonna take some time...The little guy's not due for a few months or so, soo....it should be cool.
Alritay...I'm off...more later....take care peoples. Scottie me up, Beamy.

hmm....damn. We were supposed to make our posters 9x12.....I spent more than a few hours working on a poster that....is 9x11....DOH. I think it'll be alrite....arghin' A. I'll just slap another inch on the bottom and voila, stretch out the text...and I cheated...so what. Hope it doesn't throw off the composition...I'll post it on here for all you to tell me if the colors are different on your monitor...cuz at school on the Macs, the colors were lighter...whereas at home on the PC, its darker...hmmm...I just know it'll F up when I go to print it...I just kno it. But...I can always show him the digital copy...hopefully that'll be lookin' good. I've had a comment on the text, but for one, I'm pretty damn lazy to change it...secondly, I like it and I think it suites the poster's vibe. Lemme know if I should go with stereotypical "creepy" fonts...blah. I tried to go against the grain on this one, and create some drama, whereas most all the Frankie posters out there are a bit hokey....well, okay, not just a bit.=)
Oh oh, yeah...to the people who I owe e-mail to....soon, soon...I'm workin' like a gimp, so when I get some free time, ya best look out!

Hey peoples...whoa, I just realized that I actually FORGOT to blog yesterday...I remember thinking that I had to do it, but I just plain forgot. I have so much going on, its nuts...but I'm slowly crossing things off that long list...like today I took that art history quiz I've been feeling so ill prepared for. After some cramming the last two days, I went in pretty confident...so I got in early today, did a little extra studying...(btw, my dumb alarm clock decided not to go off...I just woke up on time out of sheer luck)...got the test....it was 5 short answers questions...HA! I ROCKED it...man, I flipped it upside down and stomped on its head...short answer?? Whatever, I wrote down everything I knew on the subject...yeah, I trabajo'd that test man.
After class, I went straight to the computer lab and stayed there....for FRIGGIN' 12 hours doing my movie poster...yeah, pretty much 12 straight hours man. And it went by quick...I wanted to stay longer but I knew I'd miss my train if I stayed past 12am. At first, things weren't going my way...the lady at the front desk gave me some weak piece of shet computer...barely had enough memory to run Illustrator 9. SO I switched...then THAT computer was decked out with tons of memory and speed, but it didn't HAVE Illustrator 9 on it....uff....so I switched once again to a computer that was tricked out with memory and speed, it had Illustrator 9, but....the mouse...the FARGIn' mouse man! IT didn't roll right...I didn't have the heart to bother the kids at the front desk again, so I coped. After about 2 hours of struggling, I caught my groove and pretty much rode it throughout the rest of the session...with a brief break to finish the other half of the tuna and egg samich I had for lunch...and to talk to my Instructor for some tips on the poster. Well...its nearing completion...I'm going to finish up work here at home. I was really excited about this project...but...alas, it didn't turn out like I thought...nor as cool as I thought. If I had more time, I'd redo it, but its due tomorro....*sigh* I worked on this sucker....but hey, chalk it up to learning and experience. I'll be pumping out better and better stuff as I get more practice. YEA!=) (good pep talk Dan)
I got a little insight into the military mind yesterday. I had dinner with a friend of mine, and he mentioned he'd been in the Singapore army for 2 and a half years...so I just asked questions and all that....it didn't really change my perspective of the armed forces at all, but I did get some insight that I'll sort out later....but basically, it strengthens my stand.
Lovin' this heater man...=P
I can feel the absence of my muse lately....with this page and its posts that is. SO bear through a few bad ones, to get to the good ones, its a cycle...=) I SOOOOO want to remodel my "neighborhood" here online, but I just don't have the time, or resources...namely a digicam....okay, that last part was pretty much an excuse...I realized it when I typed it=) But the part about "no time" is dead on right....its crunch time like I said in one of my previous posts...not just for school, but for finding a new pad, etc....ugh. I got SOO much junk to do...which reminds me, I gotta drop my phonebill in the mail tomorro...I kno its late...I kno without even having opened it....ugh again. ALrite, I'm off to work on this poster...

I'm warm! Its 1am in the morning and I'm warm! "She" bought me a cute little room heater with all the trimmings...it has a timer, so I can set it to turn on before I wake up so its warm and super comfy when I wake up(whoa, that could be dangerous), and it'll turn off whenever I tell it to. This is too cool=)
I got to bed around 4ish, and got up at 2pm. Headed down to school and finally really got started on that movie poster you've heard me mention...the movie poster thats due on thursday, the one that I just got the first part of the drawing done...I'mma have to pull some late nights this week. I've also got a Art History quiz on Wed, which I'm totally unprepared for...gotta read the chapters tonite and tomorrow. I've got a lot of crap to do man...its crunch time. 6 master drawing copies drawn in their original medium and size, due next week on Tuesday. Uff...I had dinner with my friend, and we were talkin' about how things were pickin' up in terms of assignments for school and everything...and I realized that you have to pick your battles. If there's just not enough time, you gotta set your priorities...and this movie poster is tops.
Could it be possible I'm getting a little hot? Wow, this little heater really dishes it out...
For dinner it was Thanksgiving left overs...good ol' moms...=) She packed a bunch of turkey in zip lock bags, mashed potatoes and stuffing in some tupaware. So I just cooked up some rice, threw in some of those left overs, and...Mmmmmh it was good. I think I over did it...*burp*
I talked to a good friend of mine...she broke up with her significant other...something thats been coming for a long time, but neither wanted to initiate. I think its the beginning of great things for her....(yes you, you know who ya are=)
I'm feeling pretty dang....lazy. I know exactly what it is...its a combo of those leftovers, the comfort of this heater, and the fact that I have so much to do...starting seems to keep being pushed back.
Okay, I'm off to start...and to those who haven't been updating their pages, FOR SHAME! Don't make me change your status on my Links page now!
