Today I decided to use myself as the canvas and makeup as the medium. Overall result didn’t turn out like I had anticipated. Although I have gained a lot of respect for make up artists their ability to get fine lines and detail where as you can see I struggled. But I guess with a little more practice I should be kicking ass at this.

I guess i got a bit bored
Wow look at the time 8pm already? Wow time flies and I haven’t even fixed or gotten close to fixing Nonno’s birthday digital frame. To be honest I didn't expect them not to work now I’m screwed because his birthday is tomorrow. But it will work out some how it always does. I'm just lucky that way first thinks like to stress me out give me that extra push.
So what did I spend my day doing? Procrastinating of course :)Secondly i did some exercise but ever since I was told I can't sit still and had it drilled into my head by Azz. You could say i have become paranoid about it. Because I'm underweight and its scary how much so I'm not going to mention it, but all I can say is Dr
Akel is going to kill me. I believe I may have a theory to why I'm so thin if I'm constantly in motion what if my body is constantly burning energy therefore i can never gain weight.
Thirdly I wrote a letter to Kassie, as a reply to the lovely one i received earlier today. Don't you just love receiving mail? It really makes you smile knowing someone took time out of there day to sit down and write you a personalized letter in todays busy society.
And lastly i worked on private projects which the release is still undecided.
Ok now back to Nonno's birthday present It’s not that I don’t like making all these creative things,it’s just always me making them.
I believe this is because even if anyone tries to help they do such a shit job and I have to re do it anyways. Then they seem to turn on me and call me a perfectionist because I must have it perfectly correct. Which isn’t anal at all! Well it not my fault I like the sound of 100% over 99. I guess thats a side affect that happens because I do a lot when a lot of planometric drawings of things. (Which for everyone who doesn’t know it’s a 3d object drawn on a 45 degree angle) They would be the nerdy drawings I put away so no ones sees. But not anymore from now
on art is public no matter how lame it is.
An example I can give you to best describe what type of drawings I’m talking about is this kitchen I drew where 2cm=30cm in real life. I guess I like doing it because I find it rather simple to do.
Lame I know that I find drawing like this enjoyable but its a nice change from free drawing. Drawing with structure rules and math involved ill admit i love it. You can even measure the sink and the hot plates in my drawing and compare it to the real life object and the will be to scale. Scary how that makes me happy.
I guess I spend a lot of my time transforming orthogonal
drawings into isometric or planometric drawings. But never in front of people. I find it strange when people can’t connect the lines in their heads to form the 3d image. Its rather simple here is a simple one I did in 10 minutes. I guess that explains why I love building new furniture looking at all the pieces not even bothering with instructions, just seeing the pieces all fit together in my head because of the way basic design principle works.Sabbii's tip think of the object lets use a chair like the image. Now all you have to do is think of a box and subtract the matter. Hrrrm maybe it's best if i show you on youtube.
Now back to the digital frame its 9:14 now and yet i haven't attempted to fix the problem. But i do have ideas for my next dragon drawing as well as a new planometric drawing of a computer hrrm sounds challenging I like it. I shall rule up a 1cm grid tomorrow to prepare for it. While also commencing more new 2010 personalized frames.
While working on my top friends wall at home. (Oh and yes I'm making it so i can move people up places and down grade people if i have to). Things I need nice photos of me with each of my top friends. So far i have one photo and its out dated lol. Its Vanessa and i at the Zoo when we where 7.

MY 21st
But everyone keeps welcoming me to the other side, saying i have crossed over. I believed when I turned 18 I could see pro’s to being 18, but what is so grand about being 21?
My parents organized a family and friends BBQ and acquired enough food to feed 300 people. There was only 50 people invited but you gotta love the wogs they're always over doing it.
My dad at the bread shop
Dad: I didn’t order enough bread! This is your mothers fault she told me 30 people and now there is 50.
Me: How many did you order? (looking at the big brown bag)
Dad: Only 80 rolls
Me: :O I think that’s more than enough
Dad: What if people want to eat two rolls?
Me: There is plenty of other food trust me dad.
(We have 70 left over rolls after the party btw lol)
Nonno helped me set up my balloon’s
doesn’t he look cute in this photo you look at it and can’t help but smile.
Overall the night went really well i went around like a yo-yo trying to mingle with everyone as best i could. Until i got fed up and decided it was a brilliant idea to chase my little 6 year old cousin around and knowing predictable me i fell over.
Oh thanks Shanan for the b-day rhyme lol
There once was a girl named Sabrina
She used to drive a Barina
She turned twenty-one
And fell on her bum
And I cant remember the rest lol ( The reason for which is non alcohol related)
There was some dancing involved the good old tarantella it takes skill to move that fast and kick with fluent movements.
FAST FORWARDING TO THE CAKE:
My little cousin blew out my candles for me lol and made the entire party sing happy birthday the entire song three times. Yet after all that I forgot to make a wish. Yes as stupid as it sounds I forgot to make a wish on my 21st birthday. Possibly the only birthday wish that counts and iv waisted it.
Oh out of all the gifts i received id like to especially thank my Zia Grace for spending the time to make me sweets that spell my name.
Id have to say overall my brother got me the best birthday gift ever brain training and more brain training on Nintendo ds. I'm addicted everyday as soon as I get out of bed morning I spend the first 5minutes of my life exercising my brain cells trying to beat my high score. Currently I can do 20 math equations in 58 seconds, which is good, but it’s not great my goal is to reach 30 seconds I know its possible because in primary school I used to do kumon so I am pushing my brain to work faster.
That night Annieh slept over and we spent most of the night on youtube lol "Somebody gonna get hurt real bad" (You got to love Russell Peters). Then after count less hrs of girly talk we crashed at around 6:30 am.
All in all a great 21st.
