I did these drawings as soon as I arrived home from school today. I had an early day due to dance practicum practice. So I got out at 2:30, yay! I decided to drop by the animation office to find out more information about the portfolio. I was talking to the head lady and she printed out a sheet that had all the information about what they are looking for. There is also an open house for it next month. Very exciting. Anyways, I thought I should go home and practice my characters.

I cant wait for christmas vacation! I know its really early for that, but just think about it. Three weeks of no school, warm fire places, sitting on the couch and reading. It will be amazing. Not to mention no school! Oh did I mention that already? hah.

I will continue to add new drawings daily.. hopefully.

my old sketchbook journal.

Hello!

I have realized that I have not put up any of my drawings for quite some time. This is a problem if I want more followers. Therefore, I have decided to put up some of my drawings.

These drawings are from my old sketchbook journal I completed at the beginning of september. Here are a few samples. I am working on my next one, but it bugs me cause its soo small. Buuut, I made it a rule to finish all my sketchbooks before I start another.

So recently I have been very frustrated with school. I had a masterclass that I was not at all happy about. I just dont get excited for anything anymore. Surprisingly the most enjoyable classes are dance at the moment. Today wasnt bad, I left in a good mood and really enjoyed working on the dance practicum.

Melissa- I'm so sorry your sick. I love you so much, and hope you feel better. You can always email me when your bored. I will respond as soon as I can.

School again!

I know I have not updated in sooo long. However, I tried to change the look of my blog and I didn't like it. So I just stopped writing. And, I know Melissa and Josh, you both told me to change it back. So I almost did. It is slightly different though.

Umm I am back at school. My last year of the musical theatre program. We are working on a play right now called Ana Karenina. I am a little boy named Seriozha (Ana's son), a dumb pesant haha, and a member of Betsy's possey. It's alot of fun. In fact, we just had a six hour rehearsal today for it. I thought I would be exhausted afterwards, but I am not. I got a bunch of homework done and read some of my Walt Disney Biography book (amazing by the way).

Next year I will hopefully be starting the animation program. That would be amazing. I've finished my sketchbook that I wrote about in my last entry. I've started a new one. I am not drawing in it as quickly because of school and work but it's coming along.

So this summer I went to Edmonton (with Melissa), Jordan's Wedding, and Galiano Island (with Melissa and her mom). The summer was pretty awesome. Seeing Janice (my cousin)! yup.

umm what else to tell? I'm watching The Truman Show on tv right now. I heard about it before but have never seen it. It's crazy how can anyone be that mean? Poor guy!

So this year I am directing disney's Aladdin with the Lindbjerg Academy. I am super super excited. So everyone should come see it in June I think it is.

Anyways, I'm hungry and want to watch the rest of the movie.

Sketchbook Journal

I have started a sketchbook Journal.

I was at Chapters the other day when I came across this book about sketchbook Journaling. It had all these artist's journals in there. Basically its a sketchbook that you draw random things your thinking about or that you see. Its best to do if frequently so you will improve your drawing and more. It looked like soo much fun so I bought a set of three moleskin thin books. Turns out it is sooo much fun. Melissa is also doing one, and Josh will when he gets back from calgary. Here are my first pages so far.

I bought the cutest calendar today. Its of the classic Winnie the Pooh. Amazing.

School supply shopping is basically done. It was lots of fun buying it. Almost makes me excited to go back to school... almost.

At work today I got bored again and drew some quick sketches. It made the time pass super quickly.

My pencilcase is overflowing.

Back from Edmonton!

Im back from Edmonton! It was super fun. Melissa and I stayed with my cousin Janice, who is amazing by the way. We watched this video of saturday night live. The funniest thing I have ever seen.

umm.. some highlights.

Tubing - we went tubing on the lake with my uncle. Melissa kept flipping off the tube (halarious). She was getting super cocky doing the YMCA and stuff so we tried to flip her off. I held on tight as to not allow them a victory. However, at one point I wanted to fall off so I stretch back as to slip off. I did slip off, but somehow continued skimming on top of the water without the tube. IT WAS NUTS!

Campfire - we had two campfires while we were there. I was sooo happy. Melissa decided to eat marshmellows till she was sick the second time.

Movies/Big Brother - Almost everynight Melissa, Jan, and I would watch movies. We saw The Ugly Truth, with was really funny. We also got hooked on Big Brother (hot Jeff)

Shopping - we went to many stores, which was fun. Melissa bought 9 books total. haha including one called Melissa. It sounds like her life story too. haha. I bought my second book in the Sword of Truth series, and a new planner for this year.

Jan - the biggest highlight of going to edmonton was seeing Jan. Thank you for letting us stay with you we had so much fun.

There is alot more, but I dont feel like typing it all.

And some Lowlights...

Dairy Queen - the blizzards they gave us, did not meet the standard commercial thickness. They were like soup. So I put it in the freezer for a whole day and still it was runny. that was a waste of 4 dollars.

Unhelpful Helpful People - This lady was trying to help us when we were lost, but she took 9 million years to write the directions for us. No joke. She tried to draw us a map that made no sense at all. Her written directions were noo better.

Insanely Hot Sun - On the way back the sun was sooo hot. We were beyond sweaty by the time we got home. It was like a rainforest in the car.

Overall it was a really fun trip.

Here is some drawings/watercolour I did recently.

sponsored child

A few months ago I decided to sponsor a child. I got this super cute romanian boy whos about 7. Last week he sent me a letter in the mail. It was so cute. He also had a picture to go with it. So I decided to write him back and draw him a picture of a lion. Hes a boy im sure he would like that more than some disney princess hhaha.

These next drawings are ones I did last week, I think. I cant remember.

I came across these pictures that I did a while ago at work. Just thought I would put them up. I get bored at work alot, so I draw.

12 more days till edmonton! Im super excited! I get to see a bunch of my relatives, and Melissas.

I have about 2 and a half hours till I leave for work, ARG! I dont want to work today. Hopefully Im working with someone good. That would make it less boring. For the past I dont know how many shifts, I have been working with my Manager. Not that I dont like her, I do, but I always have to be doing something. haha. Whatever, I shouldnt complain. At least I have work, right?

Today I bought two books online. Volume one and two of the Drawn to Life: 20 Golden Years of Disney Master Classes. It is filled with notes, drawings and lectures from Walt Stanchfield. An amazing Disney Animator. I am super excited but have to wait a while for it to come. Oh well.

The Secret of Nihm

I officially have my iphone!

I got it on the first day that it came out. I went in at about 9 and there was no line up haha. I did not have to shove past all these people. There was only one white one and it was put aside for me :), its great to have connections. Anyways, I loooove it! my whole life is on there already. I cant get off it sometimes haha. I have about 80 applications on there haha, I came prepared.

So last week I saw Away We Go (John Krasinski) and Easy Virtue (Ben Barnes, Colin Firth) with Jen. They were both amazing! Away We Go was halarious with John Krasinski. Easy Virtue was funny as well and Ben was soo cute! That day we went to this Asian dollar store between the two movies cause it was at Tinsletown. I got watercolours and some office supply stuff. It was great.

Bugsy Mologne is officially over! Yesterday was the last day. Now Wizard of Oz with the little kids goes up. I will miss the kids. They really grow on you. Especially during show time cause you can really talk to them and get to know them without the pressure of making the show perfect. However, the show is over so time to relax.

Today I went to Walmart and guess what movie I saw there for 7 dollars?!? The Secret of Nihm. I used to watch that movie all the time when I was younger. I loved it. I couldnt remember what it was about but I knew it was good. I bought it and watched it like an hour ago. It was really good. I totally forgot the story of it though.

I also bought some watercolours cause lately I have been into doing watercolour drawings. I bought a book for it recently too. Here are a few of my watercolour drawings.


This one I made for my dad for fathers day (its his card). Its of my dad and brother chris when we were at Disneyland years ago. Hahah I think its kinda funny.

A special message to my best friend Melissa who I have not seen much at all lately. I really miss you and love you. Please get better.. She is coming over in like 15 minutes to watch The Secret of Nihm, thank goodness.
