I like the Arctic Monkey's newest album.

Well. I think it has a couple good songs on it at least. One of them being this song:

I hope I get to see them again.

Some Days

Are just shitty days. 

You know...


Those days when you find out things you'd rather not have found out about. Those days when everything seems like it's going from "I'm finally getting out of this stupid rut I've been in and things are looking up" to "Wow, things just got a whole lot worse." Those days when you think someone wants to be with you but you find out that they don't care about you the way you want them too. Those days when nothing good seems to be happening for you. Those days when you don't feel like getting anything done because you're scared of failure. Those days when you find out your not exactly the person you want to be. Those days when everything seems to be happening and none of it happening to you.




I just had one of those days.

Cake.

This is my favorite Cake song (as of right now.)

They're coming to Austin in December too. Must somehow acquire money...

Modest Mouse.

My Modest Mouse ticket came in the mail today!

They're going to be great live. Next month is going to be worth it. I had been waiting for them to come to Austin for a show.


A favorite song:

Song

Found this band yesterday, called Time Machine. They sound familiar, but I can't put my finger on where I might have heard them before. But I've been painting to it non stop. 

Skull

This is a watercolor painting I had to do for one of my art classes. It will be from a series of three, all being on different kinds of paper using different mediums. 

I'll upload more as I complete them.

Damn.

My friend showed me this song a few days ago, it's a bit short but I really like it. This video is also pretty cool itself.

Question (1)

Why is it so hard to do what's right sometimes?

This is my tattoo, it's from the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. 

I'm in love with that book and have been for a while. It combines two of my favorite things, space and dry humor.

Here's my tattoo on Fuck Yeah Tattoos!

...

There are so many things I'd like to do and accomplish with art. I want to paint so many things and draw so many things and pour myself into my work. I don't understand why my laziness stands in my way. Perhaps it's not laziness but the lack of inspiration. And I know I haven't found my inspiration yet.

But I don't just want to create something that looks nice, I want to create something that makes people think or feel something. I believe that's the hard part. I want to be so inspired by something and so excited about a project that it just creates itself almost.
(I also want to visit museums and emerse myself in other's art, perhaps that is what I am lacking.)

I haven't found it yet, but when I do it will be an exciting time. In the waiting period I suppose I will just practice my technical skills as an artist like what I'm doing in class.
