A Personal Challenge

Journal Entry: Sat Aug 16, 2008, 1:05 PM
I am in love with Johnny Depp. I always liked him ever since I was 7 or 8 and watched Edward Scissorhands. And so I've decided to try and draw the many roles Johnny Depp has played. Not all of them though because goodness know that would take forever. No just 15 movies is what I have narrowed it down to.
And they are:
:star:Sweeney Todd (of course)
:star:Pirates of the Caribbean (I almost didn't want to do this one but I love pirates ^^)
:DCorpse Bride (done :))
:star:Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (he was odd)
:star:The Libertine (he's such a pimp :))
:star:Finding Neverland (really want to see it)
:star:Secret Window (dieing to see it XD)
:star:Once A Upon A Time In Mexico (saw it and didn't notice him T.T the shame)
:star:Blow (my friend said it was good)
:star:Chocolate :same friend said I might like it)
:star:Sleepy Hollow (oh my God I want to see this :excited:)
:star:Fear and Loathing In Las Vegas (I think I'm doing this one next)
:star:Don Juan De Marco (still not sure about this one :/)
:star:What's eating Gilbert Grape (why haven't I seen this one yet!)
:star:Edward Scissorhands (the one that got me hooked :))

So some basic rules I'm going to follow.
I will not copy paste a scene from the movie I will draw it (not that it will look close enough for you to think that :blush:). I won't steal someone else's work. I don't have to go in order of how I wrote them down. And I'll try my damnedest, but if I can't get the movie then I may replace it with a diffrent Johnny Depp movie.
All clear? Then let the game begin!

Jobs and Contests

Ahh yes job hunting will soon be over ^_^ Yay!

I'll be working at Zumies this cool little Skater shop. The manager seems nice he's got freakin' awesome tattoos going all up and down both arms and his back. I was really starting to lose hope in ever finding a job espeicially because I'm still only 15 and most places the cut off is 16 so alot of places wouldn't take me :(

I'll still be drawing alot though. I've been working on this one but I'm kind of stuck. I'll figure it out though I guess. I'm just having trouble with deciding how the dude should stand. In case you're wondering its going to be my entry into slinkers's contest. You should check it out if you're into Bleach, Death Note, or Harry Potter ^_^

Well that's all I have to say for now, so happy summer y'all!

So I know I haven't really been up to much on here recently, but I'm trying to get my creative juices flowing again; God knows it would be good for me. I've been busy though; homework, TAKS is coming up soon, my boyfriend and friends always want to do something with me, I'm trying to find a job, so yea I've been keeping myself busy. It's okay though I'm not trying to kill myself from lack of expression. In fact lately the only place I get any drawing done is 2nd period art class, and then they're 'assignments' so it's not 100% what I felt like drawing.

Anyways, I've been entering in contest recently. It's not because I'm trying to make this my job or anything I'm mainly using the contest themes as sort of a kick start to get me to draw something, but when ever I get a 100% on my own idea that I accutally like I'll try my damnedest to make it look beautiful.

In closing, bye y'all!

The internet is back again and this time its doing alot better. we had to buy a new computer but oh well.
Actually whats got me down is that Ive had 3 friends move away so far this year. Isabelle- island off the coast of Scotland, Gladus- Katy, Texas, and just now Mayra- LA, California. Then last year my best friend Katy moved back to New Hampshire and the year before that my friend Anjelica moved back to Mexico.
It kinda sucks Im starting to think that I have bad luck with picking friends :( but theyre so awesome!
Its OK though Ive still got friends and I can keep in touch with my buddies ^^

But my one friend thinks I have some wierd mental disorder because lately I havent been sleeping but like 2 hours a night, Ive been eating almost constantly, and Im angrier and I hardly ever get angry but now Im always using the phrase "God! that pisses me off!" which, if you knew me personally, wouldnt happen often usually. So I dont know I think Ill get over it. As far as Im concerned if this is from depression its alot healthier sounding than "cutting" or crying til I feel like Im gunna puke yea this feels alot better ^^

Well Bye!
Shannon
