drawing





this is another drawing like i said i would post. i'm actually really proud of this one! it doesn't look exactly like the thing i was supposed to draw, but that is just guiding me how to draw the basic teapot. on this one, we are supposed to do shading in the drawing. the last drawing i posted was the one we did when just to see how we could do, so this one is the one after we learned to to really shade. HERE is the link to the last drawing i posted if you want to compare :)

obsessed with:

i have wanted to do this for awhile now, and i think i will today. i want to do a post about things i'm really obsessed with right now. i actually have a list in front of me, and it's much longer, but i will cut it down a little haha ok so i'll start now
Ingrid Michaelson
i have put one of her songs on here before called "Far Away" and said how much i love her voice, and i do. she has such a pretty voice! some other songs i like by her right now are, "Parachute" and "Locked Up".

floral outfits
since it's slowly getting warm out, i love floral outfits! i don't really have any, but i have floral skirts... i need to get some! maybe these...






Jetta
ok so i don't have my license yet, but when i get it, i want this car! i love it! the color is so pretty and the inside is fabulous! gahh i wish i could drive!




Angus, Thongs, and Perfect Snogging
if you haven't seen this movie, you have to check it out!! it's so funny and the ending is awesome! my friends and i are obsessed with it!

reality shows
Degrassi isn't really a reality show... but i had to put it in here because i love this show, and once again, so do my friends haha. it's so great. but right now, my week nights are filled with reality shows such as American Idol and the Amazing Race. i also watch, Undercover Boss and the Apprentice, and more. i also can't wait until World of Jenks starts on MTV again!

(aw shoot... my American Idol picture was deleted accidentally by me)

paris and all things pretty


ok so i have many posts i'm waiting to put up, and i'm bored so i might as well do it now haha i found this picture, and it's absolutely fabulous! ahh it's so pretty! i wish i could take a vacation right now...
i found this picture HERE
also, i'm in another weird mood. and it's like a pretty mood. (yeah: weird.) but i like pretty music, and pretty pictures, and pretty shoes, and all that stuff. right now i really love THIS song! it's so pretty! it came across my pandora radio, and i listened to it while i drew my last drawing a few days ago. (which i will put up sometime soon; sorry my computer is being stupid and won't let me upload pictures for some reason) well i suppose i'll watch a movie and get to bed now, so goodnight :)

TOMS

i really, really want these classic balck TOMS, but they are $44.00! i know, i know.. it's for a good cause! ..but i'm broke :( oh well! maybe for my birthday i'll get enought money for them!!

Jacee Badeaux

i'm really into American Idol and tonight i was really upset because my very favorite, Jacee Badeaux, was voted off. he was THIS close to the top 24! whatever. the judges don't know what they are thinking, because Jacee definetly had the best voice there. i'm so mad. Jacee, please, please come back next year!!! ...because now i don't have anyone to vote for. even the loser guy who kicked Jacee out of his group on group night went through! gahh i'm so mad

snow


yesterday i got so excited about my poetry book, i forgot to say it snowed here! (i'm not a fan of snow) so i thought i would share it. i took this picture yesterday, and it's really weird because just a few days ago, it was warm out and i was wearing shorts and sandels, and today i went to the bus stop, and it was like 10 degrees out! i don't know... it's surprising to me haha

ickle me, pickle me, tickle me too


i was looking through my drawer and i found my old poetry book "Where The Sidewalk Ends" by Shel Silverstein, and it made me so happy!! i love this book soo much! this poem was one of my favorites! i think i even had it memorized! i think i'm going to put a poem from this book on here kind of often because it's so funny and it makes me smile :) :)
Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me Too
Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too
Went for a ride in a flying shoe.
"Hooray!"
"What fun!"
"It's time we flew!"
Said Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too.
Ickle was captain, and Pickle was crew
And Tickle served coffee and mulligan stew
As higher
And higher
And higher they flew,
Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too.
Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too,
Over the sun and beyond the blue.
"Hold on!"
"Stay in!"
"I hope we do!"
Cried Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too.
Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle too
Never returned to the world they knew,
And nobody
Knows what's
Happened to
Dear Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too.

drawing

this is what i needed to draw...
here is another drawing we were assigned to do... we are working on shading in this one, and i chose to do a teacup. i really don't think i spent as much time on this as i should have. well, that's ok. i have more homework to tonight :/


oh yeah, and this just remined me of the teacup i drew. this is a rug on the floor in my room. it's a teapot and it's sadly falling apart, but i love it, so hopefully it wont fall apart TOO fast. :)

inspiration

so i'm in a weird mood and i want to try new things and change everything around (like my room and clothes etc.) i'm not going to because it's too much work, but if i could i would. hmm i can only imagine what i would do. but i also want to try new things. like photography! i'm taking a photography class next year, but i only have a small digital camera, so i'll make it work. this time for my drawing class i'm drawing a teacup, while showing shading. (not this teacup, but another) i'll post that drawing up when i'm done, like i did last time. but anyway, this picture just gave me some sort of interesting inspiration. i'm so glad i get to sleep in tomorrow! good night :)

j. crew

ok so i dont really shop at j. crew, but i love looking at clothes online. so here are some things i would def. buy there

Brompton Hobo (j. crew)
i really like hobo bags right now, and i love this bag. bu once again, i have too many bags already haha Herringbone Schoolboy Blazer (j. crew)

i also like blazers right now, even though i dont have any, i really want to try one. (even though this doesnt quite go with the upcoming season) i would really love to have one

i love aviator shades haha so these i would want! the ones i have are sort of mirror-like, and these are brown and they are different looking than the ones i have now. it's ashame these babies are $450!!
Lunette Mini (j. crew)
this skirt is awesome!! it's nice for just walking around and going to the store and stuff, but you could also add to it and wear it for a dressy occasion! i would really love to have this skirt!

Shirred Chambray Skirt (j. crew)

i also really love this skirt! i want one for just walking around in summer, because skirts are so comfortable and girly, and not having it be too dressy looking or anything. this is probably what i would spend money on out of all the things in this list.
ps. happy valentine's day!! (proud to be single) :) :)

"Far Away"
I will live my life as a lobsterman's wife on an island in the blue bay.
He will take care of me, he will smell like the sea,
And close to my heart he'll always stay.
I will bear three girls all with strawberry curls, little Ella and
Nelly and Faye.
While I'm combing their hair, I will catch his warm stare
On our island in the blue bay.
Far away far away, I want to go far away.
To a new life on a new shore line.
Where the water is blue and the people are new.
To another island, in another life.
There's a boy next to me and he never will be anything but a boy at the bar.
And I think he's the tops, he's where everything stops.
How I love to love him from afar.
When he walks right pass me then I finally see on this bar stool I can't stay
.So I'm taking my frown to a far distant town
On an island in the blue bay.
Far away far away, I want to go far away.
To a new life on a new shore line.
Where the water is blue and the people are new.
To another island, in another life.
I want to go far away.
Away away, I want to go far away, away, away
I want to go far away, far away.
Where the water is blue and the people are new.
To another life, to another life.
To another shore line
In another life.
i love this song by Ingrid Michaelson! i love all her songs! i started liking her not too long ago, and i'm glad i found her out, because she has the prettiest voice ever :)
song lyrics from AZ Lyrics
