My Winter Break :D

My break consisted of a lot of computer time and a tad bit of homework. And photos. Lots and lots of photos. ;)

For example... (Lemme download them from my e-mail real quick)

Okay, first of all, I went to my grandmother's house for most of the week. My sister has this thing for bubbles and we got some at the flea market. My grandmother's dog, Misha, loved them.

See what I mean? X3

She also has this really pretty tree in her backyard. I'm going to do a watercolor of this... Eventually. ;) I think it's a cherry tree, but somehow it slips my mind... Or was it plumb? 

She also improved some of her art, this being a wonderful painting of a water lily. I kinda smudged it a bit... But it was after she took the photo and you can't even tell. So don't tell her. >_> Hey, how am I supposed to know it takes paint more than a day to dry? 

This is my grandmother's parrot Mango, sitting on my head. Isn't she pretty? I was afraid she was going to poop on me the whole time. She's done it before. XD It's so funny when someone walks into the house and she greets them! She even says goodbye! Actually, we don't know the gender but since Mango likes Mamis (my grandmother) more than Grandpa we can only assume the parrot is female. 

Pertaining to my story: Sports have taken a huge chunk out of my time. I'm trying to adjust my schedule so I can work on my plot. It's a bit chaotic... *sighs with frustration* Back to square one. >:/ It feels like I'm starting over... Well, actually the world is well-developed but the plot isn't satisfying. I know that first drafts aren't the best but it's still hard even with that in mind. 

So, the main villain is supposed to be Marlu, but it feels like Sarlin is taking that role. I don't want that. :( Oh well. Back to the drawing board.

Speaking of drawing, I did this real quick for that one coloring contest that's been going on for a while. It's not impressive, but I thought I'd like to share it. 

Title: When Darkness Falls

I actually based the color design off a character from MLP... Nightmare Moon to be exact. I got the idea from the song Angel of Darkness. Hey, don't mess with a good thing I say.

I'd go off to scream my love for Owl City to you but I'm going to save that for my next post. ;)

Love you all!
