Let It Be Summer

Ah... Finally. No stress... no school... no homework... Or so we kids and teenagers wnat it to be. Lately, I've been gettign the vibe that we're still going to be doing academic work, like being forced to read and stuff >:-p. Yeah, eek. Well, I have my devoted fans(of the blog anyways, there aren't many, if at all) to serve as a witnes to these covers:





As you can see, these are some cool-sounding fantasy titles, and they've been out for a while, but apparently I've picked up the urge to start a private library or something. The Warrior Heir, which I've finished, is very well written if you like fantasy in a modern setting, and I'm just getting into The Alchemyst so I can't provide feedback yet. I personally hope the sequel to The Warrior Heir, The Wizard Heir, expands the large palette of great fantasy exhibited in the first one. It has a lot of potential, and I really hope that fanfics aren't the ones that live up to this.
I have a large list of books I'm going to buy, once I get the required money, of course. To name a few, there is The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, The Chronicles of Narnia(the big fat black book that has all seven), the first four Harrys in hardback, Dragonology, 100 Movies to See Before You Die, and obviously the other installments in the books described above.
Plus, my blog has undergone some updates, as if you couldn't already tell. I like this format because it makes it a bit smoother in the feel of it, and the notebook page in the background says... well, you can tell. So, I don't have a pic of my latest and greatest composition yet, but it is coming soon. It's done by the way, so it won't be too large of a wait!

Guess What I"m Going to Do Saturday!


I'm hittin' the movies, that's what! So me and a few of my buddies are planning to see Prince of Persia(if not already guessed by the giant poster of Prince Dastan up front on this post) on Saturday, and although it's a Mattinae, or however you spell that word, it's still going to be awesome to spend the first real day of summer hanging with my pals.
Speaking of summer starting, does anybody else notice all these weird celebration thingys they do on TV? I've heard stuff like, "the kick-off for summer!" "the unofficial start of summer!" "First real movie of the summer" Well, maybe the last one wasn't too bad, since it was on an Iron Man 2 TV spot. plus, there is a really convenient pairing of movies this weekend. Sex and the City 2 is premiering(ick), so the girls and guys can go see separate movies. That's exactly what my family's doing. Oh, you just gotta love summer. And it's only just started!

Good-bye for now, my peeps!

Sorry for the Sideways





Okay, I know the top one's sideways, but this is a huge project. We did these silhouettes in art class, and well, I obviously filled mine with bunches of random stuff. Go ahead, take a look, though I'm not sure if you can read the writing on it. And yes, that's in my room. Don't make fun of it either!
So summer has officially started for me. Well, as of tomorrow. Today was my last day, so I had to say goodbye to everyone and such. Actually, only four or so of my friends gave an actual farewell, so I'm a little frustrated. But hey, if they're friends, then you can always talk to them. Speaking of which, I'm going to throw a special shout-out to one of my best friends, Erin, so everyone say what's up. *what's up!* Sorry if that freaks you other readers out, but I like to say hi to my friends. Back off!
Prince of Persia is due to come out Friday, and I'm scrambling to schedule a day that my friends can get together and see it. I'm actually making an effort to get together with some this summer, so I'm feeling pretty good.
See ya later, and next time I'm have some stuff about my art over the past year!

Comic Book HYPE!



Aaah! Okay, don't freak out. After seeing Iron Man 2 and developing even more writing ideas(sigh), I found a website I must have been blind not to think of before: Marvel Comics wiki. Go ahead, call me a nerd, dweeb, a person with no life. But, I just like looking up stuff about characters from franchises I like. And so, the top people I searched on there was:

-Venom -Iron Man -Black Widow -Felicia Hardy -Spider Man

Not much, as you can see. I have a very tunnel-like range of likes and dislikes when it comes to comics. It's weird, because not a lot of forms of franchises do that to me.
And summer's coming! I'm able to exempt all finals, and in case yo don't know what that means, I can skip them! I might just get out a week early as a matter of fact. Oh, by the way, don't think I'm leaving without an Avatar pic! Check this out!



HAGS guys!

A Summer set for Movies

I know, i know, I haven't been on in a while, but that's because I didn't think anyone would want to read something weird that I wrote just because I was bored.
That's my hobby and I don't think many people enjoy it. But even though summer's only a few months away, I've still seen some pretty awesome trailers and posters for some movies I am going to try SO HARD to se this summer. To name a few:
-The Last Airbender-The live-action adaptation of the amazing hit series, the movie follows the adventures of the Avatar, Aang, and the first part of his efforts to battle the fire nation and restore balance to a world at war.
(I already know this is gonna be awesome, I've seen too many trailers)
-Prince of Persia-An adventuresome man finds a dagger that reverses time, and finds himself racing against time to battle the forces of evil in a medeival Persia setting.
(This is basically an awesome looking fantasy I've never heard of before; what more can you ask for?)
-Oceans-A great compilation of this section of nature and all of its glory
(I'm a sucker for great natural settings)
-Robin Hood-the classic
(Need i say more?)
Hopefully, these will all prove to be great movies! See ya later!
