A considerate and responsible member of society

The irony here is that while I'm learning to play real guitar right-handed, I still can't play Rock Band on non-lefty mode.

Speaking of guitars, I'm learning to play my first song - Boulevard of Broken Dreams :D It's...it's gonna take a while before I'm actually good at it -_- Also doesn't help that I seem to lose my pick every time I put it down. I needa just get a whole pack of them -_-

Got it memorized?

But of course, Axel. But of course.

I kinda wanna try actually making sea salt ice cream though, lotsa people have come up with recipes already (e.g. this one. Also slightly worried about the raw egg component, but I guess that's to be expected with these ice cream recipes (if I get avian flu, I'll let ya know if it was worth it :P)

Still at the beginning of KH: 358/2 Days right now and the lack of Disney characters is quite...strange. It doesn't really feel like a Kingdom Hearts game until you run into annoying Disney characters who you really want to bash with your Keyblade but can't :D Ok, to be fair, some characters aren't bad...like...er...

Damning evidence

Note that there are certain parts of this scene that are unrealistic:
1) I can't whistle
2) I'm pretty sure I can never make carrying a guitar around look THAT carefree
3) If people stared at me like that while I was walking down the street, I would be VERY, VERY scared

Hummm...note to self: pick consistent doodling style/brush size/font

Update: So I completely caved and got a pwetty black DSi and Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days (which I proceeded to play until my DS died from me not paying attention to its power level >_> )

I'm still getting used to the controls, namely the lack of a joystick and X and O not being the select/cancel buttons anymore. It took a long time just getting past the tutorials (I JUST started doing real missions), and playing Roxas is horribly depressing compared to playing Sora. Buuuuut it's button bashing fun and the graphics are good :D Extended review hopefully coming soon :P

Twaaaaanggg

Note: The scenario to the right isn't real...yet...

But yeah, been practicing on my pretty rental guitar and trying to build up calluses! And trying to play chords without that durn rasping sound -_- I'm gonna go ahead and blame my tiny non-callused hand for that...

Oooooo...so I decided to make tea today! Not just any tea! Spiced apple tea!
(>^ o ^)> ~Lazy recipe time! ~ <(^ o ^<)
Spiced Apple Tea

Ingredients:
  • Tea bags
  • Lemon juice
  • Apple juice
  • Cinnamon sticks
  • Cloves
  • Hot water
Instructions:
Put everything in a big bowl and mix (yes, that's basically how I make everything). Add as much of each ingredient as you like - are these instructions actually helpful? O_o
Heh, I like how my posts are random mash-ups of tables and videos and images :P It's like a scrapbook with a really bad layout! (it'll get better as I get used to this layout, I swear)

Alrighty, time to practice more! I WILL get good enough to play Green Day songs!

Update: So I just realized that one of the reasons I was having trouble with chords is because I was sitting IN THE WRONG CHAIR D: The arms on my chair were preventing MY arm from bending the right way...I'm doing better now that I've switched to the stool -_-

->FAIL<-

First post!

Peep sleeping in da cloouuudssssWoot! New blog set up, thanks to mah new tablet PC and Adobe Photoshop :D And yeah, I've been having lotsa fun doodling and stuff on it...maybe I'll actually try drawing something more serious/that requires more work soon >_>

In case you were wondering, the banner image at the top is artwork from Green Day's album 21st Century Breakdown (here). The stencils are so cool O_O And yes, this is a shameless Green Day plug :P
