Mood: Quite frustrated.

For whatever reason, I can not get anything I draw to look good. At all. I have had the worst artist’s block for about two weeks (or more) and now, when I finally want to draw something, it looks like crap.

What’s worse is that I have a couple pictures that I promised to draw for some people, and they haven’t been getting done because I can’t get them to look good. I’m mainly having the hardest time with body positions, and when I look up tutorials and stuff, it never seems to have what I’m looking for. :angry: Ugh. So… they’ve been waiting for like, a month because I can’t seem get what I want out on paper.

I also tried drawing in Photoshop today…
Talk about mega fail. :frowning: Like I said, it’s the positions that I’m stuck on.

You all probably don’t wanna hear about all my stupid woes. I’ll shut up now.

Gee, Daughter of Eve, I know exactly how you feel. I was stuck in like the exact same position yesterday… I was supposed to be drawing up plans for a new character, but I can’t seem to get any of it to look right, and now it’s messing things up pretty bad. :frowning: :unamused:

#2543

It can get so frustrating though! Especially when you see it a certain way in your head… and when you try to get it out, it doesn’t look even remotely close to what you wanted.

^That reminds me… I had started a “ref sheet” of a character I was drawing and it’s still not done. I started it last year. :unamused: Gotta love procrastination.

I hope you can get your drawing to work out eventually. Maybe it’s just not a good day for either of us. :laughing:

#2544

Mood: Happy!
I finished all the stuff I was procrastinating on! It’s amazing how much you can do when you avoid the computer for a day.

#2545

Mood: Embarrassed but extremely amused

Reason: I just found out during lunch today that from Tuesday and Wednesday I’ve been completely reading my schedule wrong. Not to mention, because of that, I ended up attending my professor’s morning classes and not his afternoon ones. I find it even more hilarious how I didn’t even notice all the hints until just today. I mean I was really wondering why on earth my classes didn’t even feel like they were hours long, and why I kept seeing one of my classmates when I’m NOT supposed to see her (since her schedule is completely different from mine), why I always seemed late when I went into class and why the professor never took attendance. But it just hit me during lunch, and I was like: “… god, I feel like such a moron.”

Honestly, I really feel like Patrick Star from Spongebob Squarepants right now. 8D I even ended up laughing at myself for the last fifteen minutes for this very reason.

It’s actually not a big deal though. It’s only the first week back to school, we didn’t really do much anyways, and it’s not the end of the world if I screwed up on my attendance record a little bit (even though I still can’t stop laughing at myself right now, lol.)

#2546

Mood: Surprised and somewhat relaxed.

Reason: Piano class was cancelled at the last minute <img src=“{SMILIES_PATH}/youwhaaa.gif” alt=“o_0;;” title="You

Whaaa…" /> . Well, got to finish my Calculus homework. :wink:

#2547

Oh boy, another person here who has regular piano classes! :smiley: I’ve been going since March of this year and was only able to not make it twice, one of those times being because I was super sick and the other because I was gone at Pharaoh’s Lost Kingdom.

Pretty excited/happy. Nothing bad is happening right now at least, plus we have ice cream. :slight_smile: Always be thankful for the boring times, because it could be so much worse!

Badger: I know how it feels to have been ‘dumped in a friendship’. I’m surprised your friend didn’t try calling you prior to the ‘break-up’, because that’s what I would do before declaring an ultimatum. I’m sure it’ll pass, and whether she meant it or not, you should not feel bad about it. Only work on patching up with this bud, or improving your existing friendships, and look to the future.

Coincidentally, I had a similar phone argument yesterday. I have a friend who is attending a beauty contest that she is trying to invite people to attend, and she asked me a few days ago cos’ I’m one of her closest friends. I agreed to ‘think about it’, but I was not really enthusiastic cos’ the entry ticket costs $30 because of the ‘after party’, and I’m not a socialite-type who hangs around in night-clubs. If it was a free event open to the public, then maybe I’d consider showing up, cos’ I’m alright with investing my time to support her.

She called me impromptu yesterday night to confirm my attendance, but I turned down her offer by bluffing that I have a society meet that day and I couldn’t attend. Then I made the mistake of asking her the time of her event on the pretense of trying to sound interested, and she got upset that I had forgot (I didn’t, I was just trying to sound apologetic as if I really wanted to go). I sent her an SMS later saying I was sorry again, and explained the details about the imaginary ‘society meet’, but I feel guilty that I basically told her a ‘white lie’ to weasel my way out instead of explaining the real reason.

To be fair though, I wasn’t the only one who shared the sentiment that the ticket price was expensive, she asked another of my mates, and he also tried telling her that it was the cost barrier, not that he wasn’t interested in showing support. But she seems adamant on us attending, even though she should go regardless of how many supporters turn up. So I’m sort of conflicted right now.

Current Mood: Annoyed
Refer above, and the fact that I have a lot of assignments to do that I’d rather not.

#2549

#2551

Mood: Kinda ticked off

Reason: I won’t reveal names or situations, but to summarize my mood, I’m thinking, “Dude, you ain’t gonna stop are you?”

#2556

Pretty upset and confused. Shouldn’t go into detail on here, but apparently, tons of terrible stuff has been going on with family and relatives, my sister is getting stressed out and crying about it, AND NO ONE IS EVEN TELLING ME WHAT’S HAPPENING! :cry: It got so bad we couldn’t even drive to church… :frowning:

#2557

Aw, I’m sorry, Leirin. I hope everything works out soon, and that it’s not too bad. I’ll pray for you.

#2558

Thanks guys… i feel lost and empty… im home now I thought listening to music would help something to set a good mood… Like Train- Soul Sister but no that made it worse… the part " the way you can cut a rug" reminded me of Kayla and that weird funny dance she did… i tweeted about it… " “the way you can cut a rug” I remeber that dance u did Kayla :cry: " i came home and sat where stuff used to be on my desk… now its on the floor broken into pieces… im getting a little better but i need someone to talk to that knows me… I NEED Ami <3 :cry: thanks again guys for you concern and help… really thanks… :slight_smile:

#2559

My thoughts are with you Leirin and mopar. I’m sorry to hear that life hasn’t been peachy at the moment, but you’ll come out a stronger person in the end. Love ya’ll.

#2560

I’m so sorry to hear that things have been rough, you guys. Life’s hardships always come unexpectedly, and it’s always worse when it involves one of your good friends or when you’re completely oblivious to what’s happening. My thoughts and prayers are with you both - keep your head up, and you’ll make it through.

Mood: Filled with dread

Reason: Yes, it is a mood.

The neverending cycle begins yet again today - I slaved all last week to get the house spotless, and today we’re doing it all over again, and this time we have to incorporate the house we’re trying to sell. So that’s 2x the houses we have to clean top to bottom.

I’m just sick of it all. I mean, I’m always going to have to clean up around the house, and I’m okay with that… but it’s when my mom comes home from working all day down at the other house, and then gets mad at you because the apartment isn’t spotless and clean. “You’ve had all day to clean the house!” Yes well, I’d kind of like to spend my Sunday not cleaning, for once, thanks. Cuz it’s back to cleaning on Monday, anyway.

The house is never going to stay perfectly clean - can you not deal with that fact? It’s not the end of the world if a few things are out of place.

Regardless, I still had to get the dishes done and was just ready to explode last night. I’m so sick of feeling like a slave. She doesn’t do any of the chores anymore, like it’s somehow all our fault now if the dishes don’t get done and she needs one of them. Wash it yourself if you need it that bad, for crying out loud! It’s not that hard! Grrr, honestly I wish I could say some of these things to her, but I know I’d be grounded for a million years if I dared talk to her like that. (Never mind the fact that I’m a legal adult now. She’d still ground me because those things don’t matter.)

I practically bit a hole in my tongue last night to keep myself from saying some very smart things.

But honestly! I know she’s under a lot of pressure (and I mean a LOT of pressure) but that gives her no reason to boss me around and sass me if the laundry wasn’t completely finished that day, or the counter wasn’t wiped when she came home, or there’s things strewn all over the den from my lazy brothers who can’t pick up after themselves for nothing. She seriously needs to chill out a bit. It will get finished tomorrow. There’s always another day, Mom.

I know this is a divergence from my mental promise to myself not to make negative posts, but this has been building up inside of me for months, and I needed to get it out somewhere. Sorry guys. :frowning:
