If you could kindly keep my cousin in your prayers...

Direct quote from the e-mail my mom sent me this morning:

"...it happen on Sat. night after a dance he was standing on the back of a truck (nobody seems to know who's truck he was on they didn't know the guys he was going to go home with.) and they took off and he fell of fracturing his scull from front to back and across the forehead.His friends found him laying on the side of the road and brought him home.They also wanted to take him to the hospital but he refused. Matt is about 6ft 4 and weights about 250 (lots of muscle) so you don't just carry him off somewhere. He would not go to the hospital and he was quite sick on sunday Monday and then Tuesday my sister in law tried again to get him to go but he refused so she called the ambulance and they came and got him. He could be very stubborn. Anyways thanks for the prayers."

So yeah, my cousin Matt is in the Hospital in London now. I heard on Sunday that he had been really sick after a night of partying, but to find out why is really tough. I'm worried about him, but at the same time I know he's a big, tough guy (literally), so there's some comfort in that. I know he'll be okay, but still...

If you could keep him and his family in your thoughts and prayers that would be great.

This really puts a damper on a day that started out great. -sigh-

I'll give you guys a REAL blog post eventually, I swear! Until then, ciao!

Laaaaa~ Tomorrow's Plans!

My voice is almost all better, so for now, I'm gonna tuck in, get some sleep, and hope my vocal chords are all fantasmic in the morning. (I've got too many things to record for this to happen! Bah!)

Also, tomorrow me and Jenny are planning a room cleaning. Emptying garbage, recycling, sweeping, putting extra crap we don't use/touch away... basically making this room not so icky (it's not bad, actually, but cleaner would be nicer)

After that we're gonna run up town so Jenny can pick up toothpaste, and I'll probably wind up buying some fun dip or a pocket full of pixie sticks, because I do that some times. Also, I should buy some juice, or something. Water would be more ideal.

Then I'm gonna get all caught up on homework - reading things my teacher told me to read, colouring that Isometric drawing, maybe study for plant ID .... definitely study for plant ID. Do not want to fail. D;

My busy day tomorrow only gives me one thought. Okay, two.
First and foremost, will I have time to get that layout done for High Risk, No Return for Kelly? Secondly, will I get the chance/have the time to record anything?

I hope I at least get one or the other. Huuu.

But anyways, I'm off to bed nao. Looks like Bastard!! will finish downloading fine on its own. Night, guys!

Boooooored.

VAA has been down all day and I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO OMG.

And class was boring and lame, like always.

Today was uneventful.

But on the weekend I got a haircut, and went to Wyo fair! Good times, goooood times. ;D
(Yes, I actually enjoyed myself there, f--k off.)

Well, I've lost my voice so I better not talk(type? lolwut) too long. Soo... bye? xD

So, I was drunk last night...

...and I recorded my drunken ramblings and uploaded them to youtube. ;D

ENJOY.

isometrics and drinkables.

So today, in Landscape Design, I had fun. :3 Which means I'm srsly considering not dropping it anymore.

We got to draw a Plan view of a house first, then give it up to 7 types of shrubs/trees in front. (Plan view is birds eye view.)

Then, working off of that view, we got to draw an Elevation view.
An elevation view is a flat-on view from the front.

Then we got to do an Isometric drawing. Basically, we taped a piece of thin vellum (vellum is a kind of interesting paper that can be see through, but you can get different grades that aren't) on top of our Plan view and drew a NON FLAT VIEW :D

This involved adding lots of new lines and stuff, and while tracing the bases from the Plan view, we made constant references to our Elevation views for heights. And although it isn't technically proper - if you were to make it a tangible, 3-d object it would look wonky - but all the measurements are exactly to scale. For example, the height of the walls, if you measure it out and convert it using the scale, are 8' - exactly what the Elevation view shows. If you measure along the base of the wall, it's ... I think it was 36'? yeah, thirty six. and convert it using the scale you get 36'! Plus, it's actually not a bad view - it's very informative, and helps the imagination impaired see what they're lookin' at.

I've got to colour it, but so far, here's what I have:



I likes it <3 My prekky little house.





Moving along, PUB NIGHT TONIGHT. :D And there shall be drinking in my room, so i am excitud. Huuuurrrr. gonna gets me some drunkenness~
Cheery whiskey! (straight, of course)
Beer!
...Fun Dip? ...FUCK YES! :D (I love candy ahaha)

I Wish I Could Breathe

GOOD GOD I LOVE ABNEY PARK.


"Breathe" by Abney Park

I wish I could breath, I wish I could stand.
I wish I had a chance here holding your hand.
Wish I could speak, I wish could talk
I wish I could breath

Since the first day, I was alive,
I feared we would meet here in the misty outside
I wanted to run, I wanted to hide
I wish I could breath

OoOOooo oooOOoo (repeat)
I fear I can't over come this place
I know your face, your hands
I wish I could breath.

I feel a chill deep in my bones,
Nothing can heal, the way my blood moans.
Nothing can quench, My bitter thirst
I wish I could breathe.

I grasp at my heart, That burns in my chest,
It's your precious art, That makes my soul stressed.
I run short of blood, light headed I swoon.
I wish I could breathe.





And to actually hear the song is so much prettier! The Cap'n is such a PRETTY singer omg I love his voice in this song. ;_____;


In somehwhat related* news, Pub night tomorrow! Yaaay!


*I say somewhat because, although pub/drinking has nothing to do directly with the song, Abney Park is a steampunk band made up of airship pirates (even though they won't outright go and admit it, they did make a song called "Airship Pirates" in which you can hear the lines "We're a crew of drunken pilots/We're the only airship pirates"), and everyone knows pirates drink. A lot. Like people at Pub Night do. Therefore, a correlation is spotted!
