It sucks having a duty to so many people but is surrounded by the worst environment to do so.
My parents hate me when I’m drawing or on the computer. I’m restricted to the point where I can barely interact with people without being scolded or even punished. And it’s turning out to be too much to bear.
It appears that my parents have finally cracked and have withdrawn their support on me drawing. They have also banned my brother from using his computer.
The cause? “It’s destroying your brains and filling them with mindless crap. You need to study more and read more books.” Really, they were talking to my brother and his video games since his grades are beginning to slip into B- territory. But being the loving and rational parents they are, they warped it right back to me.
Starting today, I’m practically banned from using my tablet, and would be forced to retire unless I drew in secret. Even on weekends, they will remain hostile towards me. They want all of my free time to be used on studying for school. (Like I have a fucking quiz everyday.)
Now, it could be that they’re just extremely pissed off right now and will actually think about it later. I hope that this is the case.
Buh.
I was drawing another update, and I just suddenly stopped to think.
PC Derpy is a bit different from the general fanon that the fandom associates with her. Rather than being a complete goofball, she’s more of a jokester and lighthearted. The spectacles help her eyes stay in focus. She’s a long-distance mailmare who often away most of the time.
There’s not a big difference. But knowing how overprotective some people are with their beloved background pony, I’m expecting a bit of a backlash once I dive in deeper in her character.
Then again, I could just be paranoid.
…
It’s becoming more and more apparent that collaborations with multiple people is not something I’ll ever be good at.
Especially if I refuse to get sorry ass into the conversation and start talking instead of hiding in the background like I always do.
Sorry guys. If I couldn’t do it before, then I probably won’t do it in the future.
I really think I should leave.
This is serious. I really have never felt this crummy in a long time. My morale is gone, and I’m just sitting here at my desk re-reading an Algebra chapter on exponents.
I wish these tests were just fucking done already.
Actually, it’s times like this where I just want to lead an exodus of the whole PC blog and bring it over to this here primary.
Then again, that’d be utterly ridiculous. I’d be abandoning over 300 posts, and be forcing 2000 people to follow another blog simply to be more convenient for me.
Buh. I hate my past self for doing this.
I’m now considering re-adding the “-mod” in this blog’s URL. Mainly because awesome people are following the blog that makes me look like a crazy nutbag. ;A;
Actually… screw it. I’m changing it!
Wow. My silly reply to Gamer Scoots was my 700th post.
So disappointed.
HAHA! I GOT IT AFTER 71!!
But it’s too big!! FUCK!!
You know when you’re not willing/motivated to draw when it takes you a counted 57 tries to a nice closed circle.
Fuck this.
They keep miss-spelling Waggoner as Wagoner, Waggner, Wagner and Marsapan.
I don’t understand that last one.
not really too much of a spell wrong but it annoys me when people put my name as
San Miguel Jones
its SanMiguel not San Miguel.. Its one full word not 2 separate ones….
Just because SanMiguel means Saint Michael in English doesn’t mean you space both words. Learn to Spanish……
Also people say it as Sam Miguel. But that doesn’t annoy me cause I’ve got the nickname “Sam” in high school cause my first name is too long for them lol
I often get people calling me Hunter. But the issue it this… My name is Connor, not Hunter. And at all other times I need to say “it’s ‘OR’ not ‘ER’” or “that’s two ‘N’s not one.”
With the spelling of “Connor”, I have the exact same problems. And no one (not even my grandma) gets the spelling of my first name right (full or nickname) :/
You would not believe how many times people sneak an ‘L’ into ‘Carson’. And there’s also the butchering of ‘T.J.’ How can you screw up two letters?
If I had a quarter for every time someone called me Kristen (female name) instead of Kristian (sounds like Christian), I’d had enough to load into automatic coin shooter, pelt you with those quarters and cause serious injuries.
And let’s not get started with spelling it. It’s a “K”, people! A “K”!! AND OF COURSE THERE’S NO “H”!!!
Last name? It’s a Spanish name, so the technical pronunciation of Vàsquez is VAS-kehz. Some people say Vas-kwehz (because of “qu”), but that’s fine in my book. :/
BABABABABBABABABABBABBABABABABABABABBABABABBABABABBABABABABABABABBABBA
Guh. Why does “answer” have a fucking “w” in it?!
I mean, what is the purpose?!?!
WHY AM I ANNOYED AT THAT?!?!
ENGLISH IS WEIRD!!
