2013

Woohoo! I'm in Colorado, doing some skiing :D lots of fun, and I'm pretty awesome at it. Anyway, I was looking at some of my favorite blog(s) and seeing posts everywhere about 2013, best things of last year, and resolutions. And so, I have made a list of some of my own.


Favorites:
I really liked listening to Iris read her story/stories out loud. Honestly, that was one of my favorite things to do.
I got to go see the Avengers, The Dark Knight Rises, and Les Miserables!! They were amazing! I like movies :)
I have gotten much more proficient at drawing/art in general, and I have truly enjoyed almost every second of it.
I get along so much better with my brother, after a lot of effort and sandwich-making.
I had a great time with my uncle, who taught me how to properly throw a football/how to play football.

Resolutions (warning: some are really random):
Do my absolute best to convince Iris to let me edit her novel(s).
Watch out for myself a little more. Honestly.
Write a song. Don't ask why, and don't ask if you can hear it.
Be a better friend (in multiple ways).
Learn how to do Daft Hands. Because that's just awesome.
Turn in every homework assignment we are given. I'm good about it, but sometimes I miss a couple.
Buy CDs instead of iTunes.
Learn all the words to Snow (by Red Hot Chili Peppers).
Get a real summer job.
Figure out how to use SketchbookCopicEdition (app for the computer), and get good at it.

There are more, but that's all you're going to get (sorry). Happy 2013!

That is all.

Copic™

  I think it's about time for someone to thoroughly explain how awesome markers are. Those who are not artists (aspiring or otherwise) may not understand the complete epicness of the Copic™ marker. 
  These are the gods of coloring utensils, the most elite of the elite. I adore them, not only because of their striking colors and complete permanence, but also because they last. So. Long.

  Seriously though, they're awesome. But also super expensive, like 8 dollars each. I got 10 for christmas!!!! I am super excited to use them, and I may post some of the results >.> I'll keep ya'll updated. 

That is all.
