Mood: Tired and frustrated.
Reason: I just want today to end so I can start my weekend.
Mood: Tired and frustrated.
Reason: I just want today to end so I can start my weekend.
Mood happy:
Reason: Went on a mini-vacation to Disneyland earlier this week. And as I left, “Put On Your Sunday Clothes” played! No kidding!
JustSoWalleCrazy - Wow, that’s so cool. Nothing like Dolly to send you on your merry way! Did you go to Anaheim? Went there a few years back, it was awesome.
TSS - Hope you feel better man!
wannabechef91 - Welcome back! Takziah… may your cat rest in peace in pet heaven. ![]()
ffdude1906: Wow, this is incredible.
How will you and Mitch get into Animation Nirvana? Short of using a grappling hook, of course.
Mood: Ambivalent
Today’s a pretty boring day. Almost finished with another piece of non-Pixar art, have plans to make a music video but having second thoughts of it being too ambitious, grinding through Wall-E and Patapon on PSP, and looking forward to CNY. I miss my pals in Sydney, though. ![]()
Current Mood: OMGECSTATICBOUNCINGOFFTHEWALLSWITHJOY
Why? I got into COLLEGE! I just got accepted to Clarkson University, and they have an amazing digital arts and sciences program, and YAY!
That’s Awesome Sarah! Are you planning on working at Pixar after? ![]()
Mood: happy
because of snow I got Moday and Today off of school, we’re getting another 20 inches (on top of 20 already) today so we probably won’t have school the rest of this week! Which is fine with me personally, although my summer was supposed to start June 17th, and I was planning on going to see Toy Story 3 at midnight. Although now we had to add a whole week to the end of the year
bummer!
Yes, I am most definitely planning on working at Pixar!!!
Mood: Still ECSTATIC over college!!!
Sarah, congrats!
That’s big news!
Mood: pretty… normal
Reason: I’m really not sure what’s up lately. I’m not feeling sad, happy, excited, just really average. Like, for a week now. I don’t know, it’s kinda weird. ![]()
Mood: anticipating
Reason: little_chef got back online, I’m just waiting for us to be able to talk again, I’m hoping soon, it seems like forever since we’ve talked at all ![]()
Current Mood: Mixed
Reason: Well, for one thing, I just got back from the most incredible experience of my ENTIRE LIFE. Pixar was breathtaking. The studio isn’t even what makes that place great. It’s the people. They’re all so genuine, it’s amazing. But it’s over, and I’m back at home. Still, the entire trip was unforgettable.
lizardgirl - Ha-ha. Well, thanks! I’m glad that I went, because I had a great time. I’ll show you guys the pictures I took soon! ![]()
Mood - Half-Sentimental, Half-Jumbled
Reason - Needless to say, Pixar Animation Studios is one of the most incredible places on the planet. I haven’t had a trip that fun in years. Come to think of it, I hadn’t been on a vacation in years – almost a decade. However, I believe that San Francisco spoiled me a little too much. My city seems ten times as boring now. Heh.
To be honest, this trip was way too short. It was fantastic, but short. There are things I miss about it, and, as a result, I’ve had the most mixed emotions that I’ve ever had in my life. It feels kind of weird to return to Pixar Planet… or to do anything. These past three weeks completely shuffled my mindset on some things, and I haven’t felt like drawing at all, which is quite odd for me. I hope that I’ll be back to normal soon…
Ah, but I rant. Sorry about all of this, guys. ![]()
– Mitch
Mood: Happy/excited
Reason: I got a u-command Wall-e for my birthday! Finally. I also can’t wait to check the mail so I can see if I got Andrew Stanton’s autograph. ![]()
Mood: Mixed
Reason: Happy to be back on PP, but haven’t really had the chance to catch up and post a lot. The place feels so foreign being gone for a month, like I missed a ton of stuff and don’t know where to start catching up! ![]()
I’m waaay behind in Bible school reading (not my fault, though - the classes got cancelled because of snow so we’re basically doing 2 weeks at a time in one, and next week is the final for this semester!
), so I have to read like a TON today and tomorrow to be caught up for tomorrow night. It seriously sucks! I’d so rather be working on artwork right now. sigh
And uhh Mitch, I think your best friend would really like to know what’s going on here, with the mixed emotions and all. PM or dA note me? I think yes. ![]()
little chef
Glad you both had such a good time, ffdude1906 and Mitch. Sounds like a once in a lifetime experience!
I look forward to seeing some of your photos, Mitch, and it’s perfectly natural to be perhaps a little shell-shocked after such an experience, especially when you haven’t been away for so long. I’m sure you’ll be back to normal and sketching like mad in no time.
Mood: Tired and happy.
Reason: Just got back from a whistle-stop tour of Paris. A brilliant three days exploring a beautiful city with one of my best friends! Just a little sad to be back to the daily grind with work tomorrow and all that jazz.
ffdude1906: Glad you got to meet Mitch and tour Pixar! It’s my dream to go there!
Mood: fine
Reason: Not much, really. Just finished school for the day is all.
Mood: Bleh. 8C
I haven’t eaten all morning and I’m starting to feel it. Even after eating, I feel like I’m always gonna throw up in the morning. Or pass out. ![]()
Haha, don’t worry. I’m not preggo or anything. ![]()
little chef
Mood: Questioning
Reason: There is this girl and we’re cool friends, but I don’t know if I’m starting o develop feeling for her.
TSS- Wow, that is a hard thing. Well, the only advice I can give is to pray about it. I hope you can make the right decision. I’ll be praying for you.
Current Mood: Good, better, a little mentally overwhelmed, but better.
Reason: Well, I haven’t gotten to post in this thread for a while. So here’s a little overview of what’s been going on in my life for the past couple of weeks…
–Papa and Nana finnaly got a place (Thank God!) and were able to move in. Now they’re happy and we have our space back.
–While they were here, Papa helped us redecorate my room. We got rid of the top bunk but were able to keep the desk that used to be attached to it (P.S. My first sawing experience
!). Now I have a lot more space and can walk without subbing my toe. I love it back there! It’s also slowly becoming more purple. And I might (God willing we can do it!) be able to get a Violet comforter! No, not the color, actual Violet bed sheets
!!!
–I got Sims 3 and I love it!
–Working on a fanfic.
–Trying to get several drawings done, some that are for friends on here.
–Debating a lot of things.
–Got to go rollerblading with friends. Had an AWESOME time
! They played great music!
–Been on a drawing binge. Feels great to finnaly be doing something!
–Trying to get back to a regular school schedule.
–Mom finnaly did my report card. All A’s and B’s, Thank God! It’s a personal goal of mine to never get a C or lower on a report card. I feel that I need to try harder, though. I almost got a C. Need to start working harder.
–Been getting closer to some of my PP friends
. It’s really nice to have such great people to converse with on a regular basis.
–Feel like I’ve been neglecting you guys at the same time. Haven’t really spent much time posting. I’m trying to come back full-force though! As of now, Violet’s back
, and using he powers for good!
–Was able to post in the Art Jamz rather quickly, do to having qualifying work ready ahead of time. (I swear, I didn’t ask or know anything before hand!)
–Searching on every freaking shopping website I know of for Violet’s Incredible Diary. I saw it a couple times, but we may not be able to do it were I found it. Hopefully, I can find it somewhere else. If anyone knows were I can find it, please, let me know!
–Found out how much I look like Abby Sciuto from NCIS
! I wore a black wig with bangs and pigtails, a goth collar, and a red outfit… Oh my gosh! I couldn’t believe it! I looked just like her! It was hilarious! Even my Dad said every time he looked at me, all he could think of was that show! I even kinda act like her!
–Planning on updating my art thread really soon.
Well, I think that’s all for now. I’m gonna go post some more
! I suddenly feel so much better…
Haven’t posted in this thread for awhile either.
Current Mood: To sum it up in a quote: “Just keeping swimming.”
Reason: There’s a lot going on at the moment and the only way I can get through is to ‘just keep swimming’! I’m working on a dance scene animation and realized that dancing is complex! I’m trying to get it done by the end of the month so I can submit it to the 11 Second Club. Curse you February for only having 28 days!
Also need to finish up my short film from last semester so I can have it all pretty looking when I apply for Merit Scholarships in March and for my demo reel when I apply for an internship at Pixar.
And then there’s the course load of my other 4 classes. Ah well. I tend to work better/be happier when I have a full schedule.
Oh! I have my stop motion penguin short film in an art museum! The local art museum is holding their Foot in the Door exhibition which is open to artists all around the state. Now I can say I’ve had a piece in a museum! Pretty cool!
Mood tonight: Melancholy ![]()
there’s a lot of stuff going on lately, and it’s kind of overwhelming right now. Not sure why a lot of these things are happening, but I’m hoping to learn from it in the end somehow. I guess I’m searching for now.
This place cheers me up though. hope ya’ll are having a nice evening
Feeling extremely stressed out and angry for various reasons. :\ And thinking it’s about time I finally sent in that application form. I really need a job this summer. D:
