Fun with newspapers

I was bored the other day and didn't have anything to draw on... so I found the school newspaper!

I actually know this guy. Well, we're friendly :P I couldn't tell you his favorite color. He was in one of my classes a couple quarters ago.




It's the Pope! And his Popebook Pro. I d'no.. he's just really old. And apparently inspiring. That's what makes a Pope, right?

That's what makes a Pope.

ICE CREAM (Catchup Pt. 6)

Ok, so at the Sidewalk Arts Festival, there was an ice cream truck! It had music playing~ And... and... ice cream! It had popsicles and stuff! A Powerpuff girls one! Bubbles. I like Buttercup more but they only had Bubbles >.> Bubblegum eyes, though! I wanted it! So I bought it!

... Actual product may differ >.>;;

I chronicled its transformation. Enjoy.

That's the back of it...

It shed a tear...

And then became an eyeless skull. With sockets that stare into your soul.

Really, though! You can just smoosh anything together and as long as it has colors similar to what it's supposed to be, children will love it.



The gum was hard.

Sidewalk Fun-Time (Catchup Pt. 5)

Last Saturday I went to the Sidewalk Arts Festival. It's so cool 'cos they use just regular chalk and end up making stuff that looks... so awesome.

I'm jealous u.u

Unfortunately, it seems destined to be rained out the moment they finish the art. Every year, 'cept last year (which was extremely shocking!), but I bet years before that too!

I bet it did. I didn't go 2006, hence the question mark... but I know it rained. Probably.

It's really a shame, 'cos this time they didn't even get judged... and the ones that somehow got saved from the doomsday rain (with trashbags and towels), got rained out again 'bout two minutes later.

They also have fun stuff, like bouncy castles for the kids and live music... but yeh. Rain kinda ruins it.

But then, there was the ice cream truck!

Catchup Pt. 4

Ok, so The World Ends with You is the best and worst thing ever. It's so insanely involved and everything... and the fighting is extremely fun! On the other hand, you have to turn the game off if you want the best attacks and fight harmless but frustrating pigs for special drops... and while I thought the whole wannabe gangsta thing was a minor part in this, 'tis the opposite. Major! Main two themes are gangsta and emo. Not a great mix. Maybe I'll rant on about it later but there's ALSO this horrible little minigame called Tin Pin Slammer. In the main game you have pins representing your attacks... but they're used for this game too? Pretty much you want to knock the other person's pin off the tiny map using specials like a hammer to stun them beforehand. Problem is, you end up flying off yourself most of the time and in the first match, the opponent has much more life than you. ><

I swear...So frustrating. Blitzball on the DS.

BLITZBALL.

Thank you Square-Enix for destroying my soul.

Catchup Pt. 3

Uh, so I signed up for Gamefly just to rent Tamagotchi Corner Shop 2. >.> I... I just wanted to play it for a little! I knew I'd beat it/get bored quickly and it's 30 DOLLARS for some reason... So, rent. Especially for the low, low price of 8 bux. Special deal for the first month! But yeah... I played it A LOT. Just unlocked a hybrid store: Sushi-Bowling. It's awesome~ You put sushi on the floor like pins and the tamagotchis throw themselves down the lane! And their mouths are all :OOO Then... I realized... your tamagotchi (circled) in the game actually gets tired. >.>;

(not sushi-bowling. It's clinic-music hall o.O)

You do all the minigames to make stuff and she's more the server/greeter/cashier. Poor thing. She started saying she was so stressed out... and crying, too o.o;

So I told her to WORK HARDER!No, no. I gave her plenty of food and turned it off 'cos I felt bad :F You gotta give them a break sometime!

It's the considerate thing to do.

Catchup Pt. 2

So, I said I was gonna see Forbidden Kingdom... It was so bad XD I was expecting epic greatness, not epic failure! That's alright, though. It became funny and we will have many jokes for later. If you see it, go with a group so you can talk about it.

Here's a summary:Awesome, isn't it? :P My skills of an artist have grown.
~Berri

P.S. I'll prolly draw/elaborate on it more later... I'm just going chronologically o.o;

First, a present

Everyone loves presents! And surely you'll forgive me if I made it just for you :DTada! I did it in crayon! You already knew that :P But, yes. It's crayon antics! Maybe there'll be a series... It's crayons mainly 'cos I don't have Photoshop on this computer yet... and partially 'cos i wanted to use crayons! Half the stuff I'll be putting up today will be hand drawn >.>;

Oh, and... that drawing was the second one I did. I botched the first one pretty bad.

See?

Once you get to the point where you have to write out most of what's going on... you realize it's probably best to start over. Also, the whole hug/strangling ambiguity isn't the greatest for an apology piece :P

Forgive me!
<3 Berri

Bzzzt...

I don't have toooo much to say today... so here's the most awesomest gif you'll ever see:

XD It's my first one. And more complicated than I thought it would be.

u.u You do better and teach me how. Then you can judge.

I'm going to see a comedian tonight, Kyle Cease :) He's random and I like him. And tomorrow I'll try to get something up for robo-suplex.

Rondo of Questionable Value

(Had to do the obligatory parody title)

Ok, so Rondo of Swords came out yesterday... and I'm itching to play something but WEWY comes out next week! It's an anime turn-based strategy thing... I'm not exactly so big on those but I did love SNES Ogre Battle. I couldn't quite get into FF Tactics, though... for some reason... but I'm willing to give it another try as soon as I get Windows up. Go-go gadget emulator!

I just d'no though! It's getting really good reviews... and it's got a new spin on the strategy thing: you have to mark a path through the enemies to attack. And it zooms in to show you the attacks but I think DS Fanboy has it right: you'll end up skipping the cutscenes after the third or fourth time. Still...

Decisions, decisions...

Oh, well. I think I'll just stick to the Tactis/ROM approach for now. Would like to keep my monies in my pockets for today.

Also, having curry tonight! *0* I wish delicious foods upon you as well.

A wewyeweyewey~ challenge!

New game comin' out in a couple weeks: The World Ends with You, or wewy for short. It's super megas awesome~ Like, like, you control TWO characters in your battleage. One for each screen! It looks crazy... CRAZY AWESOME :O If you haven't noticed I'm excited :F Also, you gots all these outfits and stuff... and use pins to fight people! It's Kingdom Hearts-y (duh, Square) but also something about it kinda reminded me of Jet Grind Radio... I just get that feeling! And I love it...

The only teensy tiny thing that's kinda weirding me out is... It's just you can buy gold chains with various diamond-encrusted word attachments at stores. >.>; And it says bling every time you pick up the items in battle... Of course, I can just not buy the gold chains and I doubt I'll pay much attention to battle-words... but I'm just saaaayiiiiing~

Anywheys~ They've also got a contest thingie up on Deviantart 'til the release date.
This is the intro site. It's got environmental concept art to get you started :O And here is where you get all the lovely rules. And, finally, here is where you can lookit the submissions they've already got. Phew! I'm tired now :F

And in this corner!

Oh! I just found this website through Stumble... which I'm totally addicted to now >.>;;;; *scratches neck slightly*

The Box Doodle Project

I always love it when people make stuff out of random stuff you wouldn't really think to make stuff out of *^^*

Anywheys, the part I'm all *glee* about is the doodle box online thingie. 'Cos my heavens, where will I ever get the energy to find a box and markers? *fans self* Nowhere, that's where.

So I~ made~:
A luchadore! With a manly hairy chest. He has TWO championship belts because he had to earn one for each set of arms. Otherwise it wouldn't be fair u.u;

It was kinda tough to get the hang of... 'specially cos you can't erase but also the "pens" have a low opacity so it layers the colors, like real markers. But once you embrace this, it's fun.

You should doodle too!
~Berri

Yaaaaaaaaaaay~

When I said take a break I didn't mean like that >.>; *kinda sorta removed myself from the blog on accident* Buh anyways, I'm back! I've made two new~ blogs in my absence (Such a long time, I know. You all must've missed me horribly!) 

robo-suplex is a personal one where instead of the daily doodle you get something mega awesome every so often! It's where I've decided I'll try to grow as an artist... :F I sound all grown-up and stuff!

Second one's still in the works. Will get definitely link and explain when it's up proper. :)

~Berri

WAK.

So, about that Ninja Gaiden doodle I promised... I'm so late with it, I did two to make it up :P

I actually... I loved the game at first but it got annoying (sound familiar?) so I don't like it anymore >.>; Spells were AWESOME but I didn't have the patience to deal with the clingy monsters. I don't know if there's anything I hate more than enemies who hump you to death >< Also, a lot of this happened.

It was weird though... Sexy no-face was weird too, but I'm talking about the use of the microphone. :P They have it so you're supposed to shout when you hear a specific noise... I forgot the what the noise was so let's say it was "wak." You hear "wak" and you shout, then a swooshy enemy comes out. If you kill it you get a bamboo tablet. I d'no what good those were... but prolly not much.

Thinking about it... it's weird even in game.

Just a weird thing to do...

No, I did not beat it and yes, I am gonna go sell it now >.>;

At least I got an awesome stylus! (DS Fanboy~ <3)
~Berri

:O Patties!

I completely forgot O.O; And yet I wore green today... Awesome.

But, uh... Um... Uh... H... Happy... belated St. Patties day? :D Better late than never, right? Right? :D

 

I was kinda busy today,though! Went in to visit my mom at work for lunch and then we all went to dinner with my grandma! Ok, not really busy but it's not like I wasn't doing anything! T_T Uhm... and... I... didn't bake yummy green cupcakes like a certain someone did *pouts* but I did re-bake a pre-baked pie! :D Apple pie! I love pie. And! ... I'm pretending I put green sprinkles on it in my memories~

... Uh... 

Celebrate it the day after with me! <3
