man. MAN.
I love the 90s.
seriously you guys I'm still stuck in them. I still wear my baseball caps backwards with my bangs coming out of the little hole in the back. I wear sunglasses even at night (inside my house). I listen to the Offspring, Blink 182, and Smash Mouth. I sing along to Smash Mouth.
God damn I miss the 90s.

$10 commssions

_{man this is like the third time in the past two months i've attempted this LOL}

so I kind of need money for a few different things. mostly books, and also... I kind of can't afford to go to college gahaha. WOOOOO SCHOLARSHIPS... I hope OTL
I'm mostly looking at my text books which are going to cost a ton not good, gahaha.
the past two summers I've been working in an office, but since this will be the last summer I have as a high school student, I wanted to try and spend more time with my friends before heading off to... wherever I'm going. an office job does not really help with that kind of thing _{(I was basically an even worse social recluse last year than I usually am. the only friends i saw on purpose were my friend Julie and... my brother).
... also, I sort of had a mental breakdown last year at work HAHA oh man.}

the deal is basically, $10 dollars for a full colored commission. MAN IS THAT CHEAP OR WHAT.
....... that is actually less than I would make at my office job, but its both a) more productive, and b) more fun.

this is also because... recently I have had a sudden burst of confidence when it comes to art. not so much, MAN I CAN DRAW! as much as, WOW I actually ENJOY drawing. that doesn't happen very often and I kind of want to take advantage of it

i was looking through my gallery and i noticed a severe lack of females.
seriously, the last time I posted a girl was February. excluding that comic that had Reyna in it, but I'm not going to count that... and Jaejin's reference sheet because he doesn't count as a boy or a girl...

LIKE... WHAT IS UP WITH THAT.
its so weird, you would think there would be more of them.
i love girls, so why don't i draw them? hrrrm.
_{its probably actually because Ballroom Blitz is such a masculine comic OTL}

actually, true fact: i can't draw feminine girls. i've tried and it doesn't look right. i guess i've been doing boys and androgyny too much gahahaha. dammit.

so i guess the moral of the story is, don't look at my gallery if you want to see girls.
especially when you can look at 's gallery. god, SUCH PRETTY GIRLS. can't get over it *jealous*

FIRST OF ALL, thanks for the positive responses to my last entry ;A; you guys make me feel more confident about the whole thing, seriously
_{makes me want to start sooner, but I know I can't or else I'll fail horribly OTL}

hm okay so this is sort of weird.

it actually has nothing to do with a serious question that I'm going to be basing a life changing decision on. ITS JUST BECAUSE I'M CURIOUS? y-yeah, something like that.

OKAY HERE'S THE SCENARIO:
so say you're with your friends looking at clothes or something, and your one friend is like, "oh try on this _______~!"
and you look at it and you're like, "there is no way that would look good on me."
... but your friends are all bugging you about it because they think you should wear it.
you ask two of your um... guy friends their opinions on the subject (because they are MEN AND THEY WOULD OBVIOUSLY KNOW WHAT TO DO IN THESE SITUATIONS LMAO).
so Guy A goes, "are you kidding? you would look great in it!"
and Guy B goes, "you should just wear what you want!"

SO THE QUESTION IS...
which do you appreciate more? Guy A thinking you'd look good, or Guy B thinking you shouldn't let people pressure you into things?

I actually honestly have no idea why I am asking this.
recently I've been running almost shoujo-esque situations through my head for... various reasons. this one came up and I realized I HAD NO IDEA WHAT I THOUGHT WOULD BE BETTER, GAHAHA. I'm leaning towards free-will boy, but being told you'd look good would still be hella fabulous.

in truth, its a situation that might come around in a storyline that i would never draw out as a comic and probably not write out as a story. just a fun storyline with characters that make me happy, durhur

... would people read it?

because i am very close to starting one.
it'll be about Jaejin and his sidekick companion, Nao (aka mole boy ahahaha). i guess the genre would be like... horror/action/mystery/comedy. mostly action and comedy, probably. because i am so bad at writing mysteries LOL. _{hopefully i'll be able to work on that, though...}
i guess, genre-wise, you could compare it to... shounen, leaning more towards seinin. because man that is just HOW I DO.

it would probably be hosted on smackjeeves or something, because i'll be damned if i'm going to buy a website gahaha. plus man, coding sites for comics is a bitch, seriously; i could probably make my friend do it for me but i am too lazy for that, even.

don't expect this to come around any time soon, since i'm still writing certain parts and working out a ton of kinks (like Nao's character design - GOD DAMN WHY IS HIS HAIR SO HARD FOR ME TO DRAW). if anything, I'd say you'd have to wait until at least June for it to start.
for the record, though, i'm super excited about it. writing Jaejin is an adventure because he's so weird. and you know, sort of evil/antagonistic... and Nao is probably the most distrubingly human character i've ever dealt with. they make such a whack duo, its fantastic.

ETA// YEAH I FORGOT TO MENTION. format wise, it will be a lot like Gunnerkrigg Court (which is awesome, fyi) in that it will sort of build up an overall plot line, but the arcs/chapters will be able to stand on their own. this is just because i can't write a 200+ chapter long story that is BUILDING UP TO THE SUPER SHOWDOWN!!! at the end. its just impossible, hahaha.
