I've realized I've never posted any of my work that I've personally done in this community, so here's a piece I did a while back. Unfortunately I don't get a lot of oldschool/traditional pieces very often. This piece wasn't originally in the traditional style as it was flash, but I changed it up a lot, and made it traditional in my own style.
So here ya go!

Mother had NO reservations or hesitations about letting my get a new computer with the money from that Japanese scholarship I got!! Not even Nostradamus could have seen that coming.
So the debate rages on. Here are the three options I'm seriously considering:
1. MacBook Pro 15''. $1799
2. MacBook Black 13". $1399
3. iMac 20" $1149 plus a new battery for my ibook $129 (total: $1278)
Keep in mind that any excess money will not go to me, so essentially they're all the same cost.
Help me decide, people.
A shiny new laptop sounds appealing, but so does the idea of two computers... Either way I get an ipod touch!! I'll touch it all over. And it'll like it.

| A Lesson in Japanese |
[02 Jul 2008|06:34pm] |
I'm learning vocabulary via some crazy site. Here's probably one of the funniest word derivations in Japanese.
金玉 (きんたま) kintama
Kanji 1,金 , means money, but more traditionally means gold Kanji 2, 玉, means ball, but also gem//precious stone
Together, however, they mean... TESTICLE.
pahahahaha. Call me immature, but that's great. Money balls! Golden Gems! Precious stones!

Over a year in progress. 8 sessions. Finally done!
Done by the incredible Dan Innes at Good Time Design in Toronto, Canada.

Lots more that I took (up close/more detail/after it all healed) behind the cut - possibly NSFW because I'm standing in front of a painting with naked boobies in some of the pics!
( clicky clicky )

I've heard of people putting the ashes of their loved ones into the ink of their tattoo...do you know of anyone who has done this, and how safe is it?

If I didn't already need a new laptop, what with mine no longer holding a charge for more than 5 minutes, not warning me when the battery is low, just randomly dying, thinking the date is December 31st, 1969 after such a crash occurs, not being able to run adobe suite cs3 or office 2008 in tandem with virtually any other program, and overall just being really slow, I'll probably have no choice but to get a new laptop when Diablo 3 comes out, because I'm fairly certain Ol' Faithful won't be able to handle it. Oh, and of course I'll need a new one for school, too, Mother.

This is probably going to be my last posts for a while, as I'm leaving for Paris in a couple of days!
So I figured I'd share some (somewhat) entertaining and (most likely) disgustingly coupley photos.
A while back Sugar and I flew back to California to visit the families. The days were filled with endless vietnamese food, country club dining, America's Best Dance Crew II, babies running away from me, rock band and confusing japanese photobooths.
