First update in a long time...

Earlier this week, my friends and I met for a LARP. Much fun was had. We must do it again...

I've seen the Dark Knight three times already. I want to see it at least one more before it leaves threatres, but I'm currently broke. Such an amazing movie... Maybe my favourite ever.

On opening night, my brother and I went to the midnight showing in full Joker-face. We were the only ones. But we did see a "bat girl" (cape and belt, no cowl, regular clothes), and what appeared to be a fillipino Robin.

I'm psyched--super psyched!--about the Watchmen movie. I saw the preview for it and almost shat myself. When the trailer was over, I yelled "Whoo! Quis custodiet ipsos custodes!" ...I was the only one who seemed to know what it was, though. Every one else was silent.

As for Dark Knight itself... Wow. There are no words for that sort of greatness. I found a ringtone of the Joker saying 'why so serious' and set it on my phone. Later that day, I was at Wal Mart, looking through the posters, and I saw a really neat one of the Ledger Joker. So, I was looking through the bins for it (it wasn't there, ultimately), and I started saying to myself, "Why so serious? ...*why* so serious?" again and again.

Turned out my phone was ringing but instead of answering it, I had decided to talk along with it.

...my nerdom is showing.

It all seems so... Pointless...

It's been a long while. I have no new art. Nothing worth posting.

Everything has become... Empty. Distant somehow... I try to draw, but become discouraged by the thought that there's just no point in it. No one tries to convince me otherwise; I'm withering up on the inside while every one turns away. I'm still drawing, but it's empty and the drawing are empty. Drawings, writings--even roleplay. None of it has a point anymore, no matter how much I used to love it.

I've gotten into Superheroes a lot lately. Partly, this is because of Watchmen. But, partly it's because of... Ah, it seems like more effort to explain than it's worth. Everything seems that way... Oh, but anyway, it's the mythology and the meaning of superheroes that draws me to them. They... It's sort of like nostalgia, you know? There's something definate about them.

I spent my whole vacation reading the comics for the Flash, and watching his show from the 90s.

...my dad promised me a cat if I get straight As on my next report card. That would be an unlikely occurance...

*sigh*... Ever get the feeling that everything was falling apart and everyone was drawing away from you? I feel that way now. I dread each coming day, and I'm really starting to feel that it's not even worth getting up for in the morning. I look up at the weapons on my wall every morning and every night and I think to myself, "If only it weren't so messy..."

I... I think everyone has days like that, though. But mine seem to be so tightly packed together, I just don't know how I'll manage this...

...I guess all I can do is play video games, and try not to think about any of this...

It makes me ill...

I am disgusted by what I see as I Random Deviant my way across this site...

I'm not a bad artist. I'm by no means the greatest, and I never will be. These things I know. I know also that there are tons of artists much, much worse than me. And on this site, no less. I know they are so bad they really haven't the right to call themselves artists. And yet, I have so few comments, favourites, or watches. Understandable. As I said, I am far from the best. I am not discouraged by this--I will try harder.

However, I've seen many people who are no where near as good as myself, and yet their watcher list goes on for miles. All because, mind you, they draw these stiff, pseudo-anime drawings. The drawings are not good, but, since they hold a dim resemblence to DBZ they're praised and favourited. This is ridiculous.

I have the same problem with fan art. People favourite when it's not good JUST because they like the fandom. It's insanity! Insanity, I tell you! This is insanity akin to voting for someone because of their party loyalties!

I see the same exact thing with writting. Bad writters on FictionPress--and there's no shortage of them--get reviews left and right, and for what? Fluff, fanservice, and empty, patched together stories with plotholes so deep it's a wonder you can't see China through them. The same goes for Fan Fiction.

I'm going insane. THIS is what discourages me. The fact that no matter how good I get, no one will give a tiny rat's ass so long as there's some bad doodle of a cat-girl to distract them.

Human beings disgust me.

Moody again...

I've been feeling kind of down, lately. This happens to me rather frequently, I've noted. Not sure what my problem is... I've been feeling very alone, I suppose, and rather insignificant. I've just been reading to keep my mind off it. In the last week, I've read "An Inconvient Book" by Glenn Beck, and the first two books of Phillip Pullman's "His Dark Materials" trilogy. The former has got me thinking rather hard about politics, and the later has got me wanting to write. Which is a good thing, because I haven't been writing so much, lately.

I've started typing what I have done of Postmortem. I think when it's finished, and after I've been over it, I'll send it to a publisher. I can't do that with the works I've already got done--I read somewhere that publishers don't like to accept books that have already been published elsewhere, because they loose first liscensing rights. This goes even for something on FictionPress. I don't really think Postmortem will get published... But it's worth a shot, I think. I kind of like it. Maybe others will...

I dunno, I don't feel too optomistic about it, I guess. But then, I don't feel to optomistic about anything just now... I really ought to finish my half of the art trade for Aermis. I feel terrible that I don't have it done yet, but I want it to look good, and I keep messing up...

*sigh* Can't go back to sleep... I'd better get back to writing...
