Yume to Kibou to Ashita no Atashi

Dear Followers, Well, yesterday instead of going to sleep I decided to do some drawing. I promised Amy Wu that I would give her something for her birthday over the course of 2011. I guess this counts. Happy birthday Amy Wu! Somehow, this isn't the same as my MS Paint works... Daydream Syndrome, N...

Memories Of Days Gone By

Dear Followers, Bradley Dawson going ginga bishounen on Shredder and the TMNT. Have you ever drawn straight from your subconscious? Well, today after 3 hours (shockingly the same number of hours I slept today) of JZ facecrushes I was so sleep-deprived and exhausted that I decided to pull an Ishmam Ahmed and mess around on MS Paint. The results were… interesting to say the least. The speech team as I see them. I haven’t doodled for a long time. After seeing what my free mind produces, I am not surprised that I refrained from doodling. What follows will disturb and provoke you. I really was just messing around, but some of these came to represent something much more than a doodle. Bear-mounted Gundam-unicorn using a kamehameha on...

You Make Me Feel Like Danzig

Dear Followers, http://myanimelist.net/animelist/noelvermillion25 Three blog posts in one night? Can somebody say miracle? I am either (1) having a really rough night or (2) utilizing the time that I always wished I had over the past two months. Anyways, I had enough time today to make an account on My Anime List. If you've ever wondered how much anime I really do watch, here is what I came up with in 1 hour. There are probably many more shows that I have lost track of over the years, but this is a helpful guideline. If you watch as well, I recommend you get an account. This is a high-tech webpage. We should buddy up as well. Eastside, Westside, Genocide, N...

For Cozy-Katz

Dear Followers, This is the first time I have ever used a relevant opening for a blog post. Perhaps now is the time to break free from my own system. Hell no. I would much rather be predictably unpredictable than be predictably predictable. Any day. Today was a mixture of happiness and sorrow. Who am I kidding? Today was a complete burst of happiness; the sorrow will come way down the road. Nostalgia will be the death of me one day. Everybody knows that a day filled with SC face-crushes is a day well spent, especially when you have the chance to combine Florence Nightingales and Zealots for a massive push. But SC is for another day, a day when Bangladesh’s demonstration of power will be revealed on the interwebs. All in good time. Right...

The Only Ones Who Should Shoot…

Dear Followers, Disbelief. I didn’t think the day would ever come. APCOMP is over. The dragon is slain. All that’s left is to collect her valuable treasure before quietly exiting out the back door, leaving the carcass behind to rot. Oh yeah, there is an AP test in May. FML. Cardona-san may be one of the cleverest teachers I know. In many ways she is the closest I have come to finding a real-life Lelouch Lamperouge. She rules her classroom with an iron first and she doesn’t care who knows. She thrives on the moans and mumbles of her students. She will constantly remind even the more literate student that he or she does, indeed, not know how to read. As Jason Lee would say, “you don’t have to like her, but you will respect her.” I can...

How About I Slap Your S@$%?

Dear Followers, BBC Documentary – Human All Too Human Friedrich Nietzsche is, without a doubt, one of the most profound human beings who has ever existed. Easily comparable to Albert Einstein or Sigmund Freud, Nietzsche made invaluable contributions to modern philosophy. And yet, Nietzsche will only know obscurity in the foreseeable future. He will continue to be labeled as the core philosopher of Germany’ Third Reich. He will continue to be labeled as a power-hungry maniac who was mentally unstable. He will continue to be misunderstood and mischaracterized. I feel a heavy pain to know that many will never come to know or recognize the innovation of Nietzsche’s work. Perhaps Nietzsche was correct when he explained how he had the burden...

Pyon Pyon Warp-Kun

Dear Followers, PROCESS ANALYSIS: PURPOSE/CLAIMS: For my visual essay, I decided to do a piece on the armed forces of the United States of America. This year’s debate resolution revolved around US global military forces and installations, and I have learned a great deal about the armed forces these past few months. As such, I began to notice the recruiting commercials each respective branch of the US armed forces (Army, Navy, Air Force) made use of. In the United States, recruitment levels are at an all time low. Students are drawn away from the military because of a lack of educational and monetary incentives for enlistment, and our National Guard and troop levels are beginning to pay the price in order for us to maintain global commitments. Therefore, the main purpose of my visual essay...
