I entered myself into the cosplaylab lookalike contest for haruhi!
I'd be really thankful if you'd lend me your vote!

Today is my last day of spanish. I will actually have more time to work on my drawings. One month and I already feel like they look crappy again. My life has been pretty busy I look forward to some relaxation hoo ya!

DC in another month! I'm wicked excited for that.
Tomorrow I have the day off and it is the fourth. We are having a Slip and Slide party which I'm totally pumped about. Mimosas, and light beer for all....

There will be no art this week and possibly for the next month or so because Spanish Class has EATEN MY LIFE!!!


I'm aching to write and draw and hopefully this long time away from all this will spur me on to make some decent shit! I look forward to it. All my pens have dried out and believe or not I have to drive like 30 minutes to find a place that has pens that are .1 :<

When I went to aaron brothers I asked for some pens for like inking comics and they showed me calligraphy pens. The guy had no idea what I was talking about. REALLY? I mean it's not that complicated.

I have been busy and practically pennyless lately. I'm scared about the next two weeks. So many presents and outings. I'm going to have to be cheap. Most likely no eating out and when I am out no drinking.


I have been reading in those fleeting moments when I'm not at school or studying for school. I cannot wait till this is over.

Well I experimented a little more with water color this week. Now I actually feel a little drained after getting those images out of my head and on to paper. I think I need a break which is good because I have so much other things I need to do. Mostly school.

I've wasted all my money lately on dvds, my hair, and gym clothes. haha but I think it's about time I took a break from spending my funds on all that art jazz.


I'm a little sad about the guest list this year for DC. Its my first Dragon Con and well I wish a few more faces would make another appearance. Next year I may just check out comic con.


I get so many people saying:

incredibly intelligent Lisa fan:"Why Lisa! I love your art, but I want to read more of your incessant ramblings about every minute detail of your drawings!!"


me:"why you are not alone there are millions! I don't want any of you to suffer anymore! Quick read my other art blog!"

incredibly intelligent Lisa fan: "Lisa you are so humble and generous!!!Thank GOD! I couldn't sleep last night wondering about what inspires you! HOW DO YOU DO EET???"



as you can well imagine from this dialogue I am pretty long winded...but if you want some help sleeping tonight give it a try. My latest one is about facial structure etc...

Well I start summer school in a couple weeks and I'm definitely not looking forward to it. I've been blissfully distracting myself from everything I need to be doing by watching a shit-ton of movies. My friend michelle and I have dubbed them inspiration sessions.


Watching all these films brings up a burning desire to do more with my life. I feel like I'm in a constant state of distraction from everything but my dreams. I have been writing a lot more and thinking a lot more. I want to read more and I want to travel. I'm just filled with a tremendous desire to fulfill these few dreams.


I know it's silly to say I'm getting older when I'm only 24, but I really feel that way. What is it I need to set me into motion? When will I stop with the excuses? Lately I've been going back to that story I'm writing and fixing up parts of it. I'm up to page 74 by the way. I really want to finish it and start reworking it. I know it's going to take time if I want to do it right.


Sometimes I just want to sit around and pray for something to set everything in motion but this year I've read a lot of things that say that inspiration is not enough. You can't just sit around and wait. Yet I know I do. I wait for approval I wait for a sign. There isn't going to be one and I realize that. What will it take Lisa?

I feel like I'm just about ready to leave it all behind me. I want to stop being timid and waiting for someone to ok everything I do. I think I should just jump in and do it. All I know is I do not want to look back and wonder why I never acted on all this..
