Rant or Vent here
I am quite angry that the real comic that I wrote isn't going to go anywhere because I sick at drawing. And the girl who was going to draw it for me had "scanner problems" and then stopped speaking to me. Is it me?? Am I just that big of a jerk that no one will follow through on their promises to me?? I don't get it.

It's pretty difficult to find people who are willing to draw a comic that they didn't get to write (especially if they're doing it for free)… it's a pretty big time investment, and sometimes writers aren't the easiest people to work with. I can't say what's up with your situation, but it's possible she realized that wasn't where she wanted to put her time and effort, and doesn't know how to tell you…
Sports reporters…. Yeah, there's one English guy who does the soccer and thinks he's Byron or something. He's prety entertaining with his poetic way of describing things.
i was like….why would some dude think he was me? and how would ozone know me well enough to make that comparrison?
at least in the states, having the name byron is a rare thing, so when i see it or hear it, my mind instincivly associates it with me. i've only met two others….
The dog keeps lying right behind my chair, so whenever I get up she gets hit by it. Five times it happened so far, and she still hasn't caught on that lying there is bad idea.
On the bright side, I now have a chair and a desk. No more sitting on the coach with the monitor balanced on a stool!
A dog therapist would say your dog is a masochist. O_o
I just told my piano teacher I was quiting piano and surprisingly, she was disappointed and maybe even sad. I kind of thought she would be happy about the news since I'm a super lazy student who never practices. She says that I'm one of students she'd been with the longest. Gah, now I need to buy her a goodbye present out of guilt. >_<
I feel kinda insecure putting color comics up for people to see, I guess because i don't really know what i'm doing (there's no guidelines or obvious examples like with tones) It's all soft and bright compared to the natural looking stuff i see elsewhere. Ah well i'll learn.

Ditto what SpANG said!
And don't worry, you're not alone. I'm just now getting comfortable with coloring. I had to go through my markers stage, then computer coloring, etc. It's a process, and every artist's process evolves in different ways. :)

Yeah, what SpAng said. The coloring is beautiful. So it IS soft and bright - but there's absolutely NOTHING wrong with that. It actually works perfectly. Gives the page a nice, dreamy feel.
Ok, my turn to vent :) The problem I'm having as of late is that I'm lazy - and it feels GOOD! I got two weeks off. I'd usually spend 50+ percent of that time drawing or writing. Doing "something". This time… Finished the latest page of the comic in about two days - and the remaining 14 I was SLACKING! When my holiday was over, I finally started working on the new page. I drew a lot on Monday and Tuesday… and did nothing else than watch tv the rest of the week. Thought I'd make up for that today. Didn't happen! :) Watched some more tv, lay on the bench in the garden at my grandma's, watching the sky… And I loved it. I feel I DESERVE it. So while I do feel guilty that I'm lazy, I feel I owe it to myself to just lie down and do nothing if/when I get a chance. Summer's almost over - so why not enjoy it while it lasts, right? RIGHT…? Why do I have to keep convincing myself I'm not doing anything wrong if I take a day off and do nothing?

Bless you Fitz, I don't KNOW how to take a "day off" even when I have the "day off". My wife forces me to relax - which she does pretty well.
You're adding years to your life when you know how to relax. I think the thing you're trying to seek for yourself (IF you're seeking it) is balance. That's been my biggest issue - just finding a center between work, family, spiritual life, community work and even my comic and other digital projects.
Seems the older I get, the harder it is. While you're young, do what you can to enjoy you're life. I just feel like I've been living this way since I turned 30 and I'm three years away from 40 now. If I don't get a handle on some balance, I'm either going to go crazy or go bald.
Oh wait…
So yeah, school starts Monday, I'm moved into my new home, got all my stuff unpacked and I'm ready to get back to making comics, but there's just one slight problem: Apparently my laptop doesn't like my scanner and the software didn't install properly. Worse yet, the software is sitting in a box about 300 miles away and my presentation page for the awards is due soon. I was really hoping to finish up my awards stuff this weekend and get back to Last Words and a couple of the other projects I was working on.
Mantra from everyone who has gotten to know me over the years:
*You are so talented and have so many abilities etc, etc and have such great potential etc. etc.
*Personal perception: bullshit. If I was why don't I do any better than I have done?
*Truth: I'm only talented compared to people who aren't. Ihave a great memory, but that's it. Compared to people who are talented and intelligent I really suck and no matter what I do or what I have done it is never quite good enough and nobody cares.
If I did the Sistine Chapel ceiling, it still wouldn't be a masterpiece because I did it not Michelangelo. Trust me this is an observation I've made over a long time and it keeps getting proven. I'm also copied— alot. Of course I never get the credit. :)
Like John Adams I'm stubburn, obknoxious and disliked. C'est le vie.
But I have a great sense of humor. lol!
Just a rant. It's good to get it out of my head and make it a bunch of pixels on a screen.
Yay. I kicked ass on that testing.
I screwed Sony over on them trying to screw me over for money, yet again. They wanted me to pay $20 for a CD I couldn't find so I could use my video camera on my computer again since I'm using Vista. The camera isn't compatible with Vista out of the box and the CD isn't compatible with Vista…so you have to DL the drivers and use the CD to install the drivers.
Well, I didn't have the CD and couldn't figure out how to get it to work. Sony support said, "Well, you need the CD to install the new drivers to make it compatible." "I cannot FIND the CD." "You can buy a new one and have it shipped for $20." "SO, you're telling me that my $600 camera is now USELESS because I cannot get the video off of it in order to make DVD's or video files and I have to pay another $20 to fix the problem YOU GUYS CREATED by the compatibility issues?" "I understand you're upset, but that's all you can do."
So, being livid, I hung up the phone and proceeded to destroy my place trying to find the CD. I did find it, I installed it, and I think it should work now. Granted, I haven't plugged the camera in, but it's all installed fine.
Now I can use my camera again AND have a webcam again! Which means when I'm on Vent with my friends and other artists we chat with, I can be on Stickam with them as well.

Yep…it works
Gggrr! I'm so upset with having all this angery jealousy in me!
My best friend on the internet has pretty much been on and off the internet for some time. It was okay a first, but now she'll be gone for weeks with out a word. And when she comes back, she postes up all her art work that shows how much she been progressing!
I'm sick of it! I'm tierd of alwaysing moping about her not being around, and I'm just TIERD of being angerily jealous when she comes back! It's gotten to the point where I'm staring to ingore her… But really, all I want her to do is be like how it used to be… Back when we could talk and talk… Now, I barely get to even say high to her once a month…
I don't know, maybe I should get some more friends, or maybe I should just really move on…
I feel old. Really old.
As a Sophmore, I'm the old man of the dorms here pretty much. Granted, there's one or two people older than me, but they spend most of their time elsewhere. All these freshmen coming in this year are talking about their relationships that are several years old and how they're considering marriage. I know I was engaged at a young age myself, but thinking about it now, I know it wasn't as serious as these kids are taking it. On top of it I'm just getting a bit bored waiting for them to grow up and get over the sudden freedom to drink and do whatever they want. I've been here a week and already walked up to my dorm room to hear unwanted noises about 4 times. I spend all my time working so I feel like the world's biggest dork.
I can't wait for classes to start so I can have a few more older people around, just so I don't feel so lame and old working all the time.
I know how that feels Ibas. Minus the old part, though.
I had a lot of freedom at home, so when I got to college it was hard for me to fit in with everyone else, because they were celebrating something I'd already experienced, so I just wanted to get on with my work. It was OK at first, because I liked my work, but it got boring eventually.
Heh, I feel that way just being around my mother and step-father.
Okay…I need help finding something. I don't know what the original animation it's from, but I need it so I can rip the sound file from it and use it in a mash-up animation.
It has to do with either a stickman or an animated person doing something really powerful and shouting something like, "WRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!" in almost a robotic anime style. Someone on Newgrounds used the audio clip on a moving gif which showed a tank slamming down, being ridden by a stickman and then him puffing up his chest, arms out, shouting, "REEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!"
I'd love the help
*deep breath* WHAT THE HECK IS WRONG WITH MY LEFT EYE?! It always feels so damn weird constantly, and gets a 'pulling' pain behind it sometimes and I hear weird crackling noises. In fact, it feels like the uh…"strings" behind my eye are getting played with. It's all pretty worrying.
I know I bitch about this too much…but it is a very annoying problem to have when you want to draw a lot. ._. To top it off my glasses lens fell out again, only this time I lost the screw as well. So I'm back wearing "old blue" (my last pair of glasses). Going back to my older perscription didn't help much either, as I thought maybe it would because it's not as strong.
I guess returning to the eye doctor is my only choice, but I've had similar problems for a while now that I told them about, and they haven't seemed to have helped much yet. >_>
My mom keeps doing these weird, mean little things. Like yesterday she came up to me and she was like, "Hey, pasty legs!"
And a little while ago I asked my dad to buy chocolate chips so I could make cookies. My mom was there when I asked him to do that. When he bought the chocolate chips and put them in the cupboard, my mom hid them before I had a chance to make cookies and then made bran muffins with them about a week later. I know it wasn't an accident because I asked her about it and her response was more or less, "Yeah, I did that, so what?"
I understand that she doesn't like me or whatever, but I'd prefer if she just ignored me rather than going out of her way to push my buttons.
