Magic Worlds and Fairy Tales

As promised, I did draw more yesterday, though they are not all the greatest.

Trying my hand at drawing some Disney again. (Its been a while)

Robin Hood!

Rabbit. The head is way to big, but I did not feel like fixing it.

Meant to be my boyfriend Jacob, but it does not really look like him. It is so hard to draw people I know for some reason.

This is sort of me. I drew it from a picture of me, but changed some things.

Sometimes I wish I lived in a land of fairy tales, and magical things. Wait, scratch that, I always wish that. It would be so great though. Just think of all the amazing Disney movies. Now imagine you lived in a world where all of that was possible. Where magic wands were used daily, and princes came to your rescue. I like to imagine I am a mermaid, of course.

When I think of Disney, some days, my heart feels like its filling up with Joy! I get so excited to draw or read about Disney, or watch a Disney movie. Maybe I am being silly but I love it!

Do you ever think of something and get filled with a giddy happinessÉ

(Sorry I cant make question marks, I pressed something on my computer. By the way does anyone know how to fix this... please let me know!)

I know how to fix the computer thing! You switched it to the canadian french setting. Just find the little keyboard (should be on the bottom bad of your screen) and change it back to US. Then it'll work fine again. (I know cause I accidentally switch it all the time!)

I love robin hood! I want to watch that movie. Actually, I want to do anything for fun. That would be nice. GAH, life is lame sometimes!

Also, dude, you know i love living in magical lands - particularly ones of my own making.

I miss you!

Your stuff is crazy solid. Robin Hood is most likely my favorite Disney film, you captured his cheerfulness so well.

The Walrus and the Carpenter

The sun was shining on the sea,
Shining with all his might:
He did his very best to make
The billows smooth and bright--
And this was odd,
because it was
The middle of the night.

The moon was shining sulkily,
Because she thought the sun
Had got no business to be there
After the day was done--
"It's very rude of him," she said,
"To come and spoil the fun!"

The sea was wet as wet could be,
The sands were dry as dry.
You could not see a cloud, because
No cloud was in the sky:
No birds were flying overhead--
There were no birds to fly.

The Walrus and the Carpenter
Were walking close at hand;
They wept like anything to see
Such quantities of sand:
"If this were only cleared away,"
They said, "it would be grand!"

"If seven maids with seven mops
Swept it for half a year.
Do you suppose," the Walrus said,
"That they could get it clear?""I doubt it," said the Carpenter,
And shed a bitter tear.

"O Oysters, come and walk with us!
"The Walrus did beseech."
A pleasant walk, a pleasant talk,
Along the briny beach:
We cannot do with more than four,
To give a hand to each."

The eldest Oyster looked at him,
But never a word he said:
The eldest Oyster winked his eye,
And shook his heavy head--
Meaning to say he did not choose
To leave the oyster-bed.

But four young Oysters hurried up,
All eager for the treat:
Their coats were brushed, their faces washed,
Their shoes were clean and neat--
And this was odd, because, you know,
They hadn't any feet.

Four other Oysters followed them,
And yet another four;
And thick and fast they came at last,
And more, and more, and more--
All hopping through the frothy waves,
And scrambling to the shore.

The Walrus and the Carpenter
Walked on a mile or so,
And then they rested on a rock
Conveniently low:
And all the little Oysters stoodAnd waited in a row.

"The time has come," the Walrus said,
"To talk of many things:
Of shoes--and ships--and sealing-wax--
Of cabbages--and kings--
And why the sea is boiling hot--
And whether pigs have wings."

"But wait a bit," the Oysters cried,
"Before we have our chat;
For some of us are out of breath,
And all of us are fat!"

"No hurry!" said the Carpenter.
They thanked him much for that.
"A loaf of bread," the Walrus said,
"Is what we chiefly need:
Pepper and vinegar besides
Are very good indeed--

Now if you're ready, Oysters dear,
We can begin to feed."
"But not on us!" the Oysters cried,
Turning a little blue.
"After such kindness, that would beA dismal thing to do!"
"The night is fine," the Walrus said.
"Do you admire the view?

"It was so kind of you to come!
And you are very nice!
"The Carpenter said nothing but
"Cut us another slice:
I wish you were not quite so deaf--
I've had to ask you twice!"

"It seems a shame," the Walrus said,
"To play them such a trick,
After we've brought them out so far,
And made them trot so quick!
"The Carpenter said nothing but
"The butter's spread too thick!"

"I weep for you," the Walrus said:
"I deeply sympathize."
With sobs and tears he sorted out
Those of the largest size,
Holding his pocket-handkerchief
Before his streaming eyes.

"O Oysters," said the Carpenter,
"You've had a pleasant run!
Shall we be trotting home again?'
But answer came there none--
And this was scarcely odd, because
They'd eaten every one.
