Last post of the year
Ok, so I realised that I have a blog that has been forgotten. Sooo... yeah. I'm hoping to try to renwe my interest of blogging again but now just for drawings' sake. I just feel that I need to get some of my drawings into the world.
So, probably the last post of the year, enjoy.

Long time no see.
So, its been a long time since I've last posted and Ihave a lot to say.
In the past two days, a lot of exciting things have happened. Yes. I am exciting.
Firstly, I went to X08 yesterday. Yeah quite a bit of fun bt very very dissapointing. I went there expecting a sea of games, giant screens showing in-game footage and booth girls *smiles* but instead it was like a classroom filled with about 6 shelves of games, 3 pillar with 3 TVs on each to test games and a stage where Alison Carroll aka Lara Croft was signing stuff and doing stunts *glee*. And X08 is also where I got my new xbox 360 elite. :D*
Which brings me to my second post topic, Singaporean store operators(?) . As you, the reader might know by now, I'm a major comic book geek...all rounded geek. So one game I was looking for was Spider-man: Web of Shadows. So, went to X08 and a store and couldn't find them and decided to call different stores to see if it was even in stock yet.
The following is the conversation between me and every store operator I talked to.
Me: "Umm, hello?"
Operator: "Yeah, hello."
Me: "Umm, yeah, do you have spider-man: Web of Shadows for the xbox 360?"
Operator: "What?"
Me: "Spider-man. Web of Shadows. For the xbox."
Operator: "For?"
Me: "Xbox. 360. x-b-o-x."
Operator: "Oh, hold on ah."
(five miutes later)Operator: "Hello? You'll have to call our games department."
Me: "Oh ok."
-annoying elevator music for 10 minutes-
Me: "Hello?"
Operator: "Yeah, hello."
Me: "Umm, yeah, do you have spider-man: Web of Shadows for the xbox 360?"
Operator: "What?"
Me: "Spider-man. Web of Shadows. For the xbox."
Operator: "For?"
Me: "Xbox. 360. x-b-o-x."
Operator: "Oh, hold on ah."
(five miutes later)Operator: "Hello? I think you've got the wrong department. hold on."
And this repeats about 5 times each place I call. And then there'll be varied awnsers by the end of each of them! What The Funch?! (hehe. I don't swear.) So after about an hour of this, I eventually gave up and went to play other stuff. alone.
Well, Thats all for now. More updates soon to follow. I hope.
*smiley faces are gay. :D

Free Scans
Finally. I got a scanner in my room...
Now, I can scan in my art ANYTIME I WANT!!!!(I'm too lazy to move my hand to my mouse, move the cursor to select the words 'anytime i want' and click on the bold button. That's why it's in caps...)
ARTz!!!
Okay, so, this is...Nick. And that nude guy from here. I'm gonna try and ink him later. Most likely. Eventually. Maybe. Not really. Hopefully...

Camp Camelot Part 1- Jump On It
I'm back! From camp!
Well, I could type about everything but I think I'll only type what I can remember.
First of all, I want to rant about CRC. CRC or Challenge Rope Course, as it is known as amongst its peers, is an interesting course of blah blah blah...
Actually, the CRC is a chamber built by demons to brainwash human offspring into not fearing heights with tiny nanobots built by dwarven scientists in the eighteenth century. When in the CRC, the chamber masters disguised as mere mortals, give out harnesses that inject the nanobots into your bloodstream and eventually into your bone marrow and brain and they also hand out helmets which also scan your brain for a change in your neurotransmitter signals which is a sign that the nanobots latched themselves into your cerebral cortex or more specifically, your occipital lobe and your cerebellum.
The time taken for the nanobots to latch themselves to your brain and start transmitting is about four minutes. That's why when you go for your CRC, the "trainers" make you do at least two "rope courses" or as they call it, test facilities. While you do the first one, the nanobots are working their way up your bone marrow. Then, you do your second rope course, the "trainers" check your brain activity to see if the nanobots have done their job. If you are still scared, they unleash a second dose of nanobots into your bloodstream. Then you go again.
Heh. Sorry about that, I couldn't help myself.
By the way, it's all fake. I lied about everything.*
So, in the CRC, I did one where you must climb up a five meter high pole, jump off and grab a trapeze(which is a horizontal pole hung from a higher pole.). The trainers all say:"Kay! All you need to do is climb up and grab that pole there! Okay! Lets go!"
Pfft. They say it as though it was that simple. the real experience is:
First, you have to climb up five meters on small little shaky bent pieces of metal scotch taped to the wooden pole in three seconds because those over-enthusiastic a$$h01e5 down on the floor are pulling the rope so fast you'll get dragged upwards.
Anyway, because of the awkwardly placed "steps", at the last step where you must step on the fifty-cent sized platform top, you'll be squatting like a frog, hand between your legs on the top of the pole and your legs all over the place.
Once your on top of the pole, you realise that the floor is uneven and the entire pole is shaking. It's at this point tha you realise that the trainer has been shouting at you the whole time but you only notice now as you have been trying to make yourself lighter so those paperclip steps do not break.
Okay, let's recap, now you've somehow managed to get on top of the pole. You're partially crouched because the pole is swaying. The trainer is screaming at you to straighten your legs and jump. The other people below you are tugging on the rope causing you to be more fearful.
...So, you are standing on the top of th pole, all the possible outcomes flashing through your mind. Then, suddenly, (about the time when the nanobots make it to your occipital lobe and start transmitting) you feel less scared and you jump.
Heh. I can't write anymore I'll continue later.
