    So things are really busy for me at the moment, mainly cuz of working. I deliver packages for the local post office. It's good work, the posties are a good group of guys, they are always saying crazy **** in the mornings. This one guy called Moon, I've know him since I was a kid, he keeps offering me a $2 to do his job for him. O-o This other guy smoked to much pot when he was a kid and hes kinda out there, he is suppose to be on vacation this last week but he keeps coming into work and they have to keep telling him to leave.

    The other day, I had a package for a person named C. Dyke (no lie) Also, today, I dropped a beer machine on my foot and I accidently shut the van door on my leg. I'm trying to make it so that I can get hired as a mailman by next year sometime cuz they make $25/hour and with that money, I can get my own place and have Steph move in with me, that would own. ^__^ My mom's boss there knows me and sees me working all the time, so hopefully he can be my recommendation, cuz you need one.

    I'm also going to the movies on the 18th to see the new Batman movie which will own, check that out if you can.

    later.

    So tomorrow July 1st is my birthday and I'm getting so old now, I feel like I've been alive for way to long now, been 23 years.......damn, that's to long, I should retire soon then pick out my plot in the graveyard.

    I don't have any plans for that day cuz I'm very lazy and am not gonna wanna do anything after work. My cell phone provider has told me I get free incoming calls that day.

    yeah so you can ignore that last rant blog, that was a 7am morning news blog.

    The blog before it said I would be showing some more drawing that had been colored in PS. I only got one done cuz I'm still waiting for a scan of another one but I have 2 drawings, one was colored.

    Bat thing Just a small creature.

    Colored version.

    Cyborg sketch I'm probably not going to color this one, I think it would ruin the look.

    So on the Canadain news they said that very soon they will be "updating" the laws concerning music/movie downloading in Canada. The old system or system now is that in Canada, you can download music and other things for your own personal use, like listening to them on your comp or I-pod of w/e and it is not illegal as long as you don't try and profit off the downloads. (like burning 10 CDs and selling them on the street) The U.S. governent is putting pressure on the Canadian Government to change it's copyright laws and of course, they caved cuz they are French. So they are gonna change it so that it's probably gonna something similar to the U.S system. Talking about a $500-$20,000 dollar fines and crap like that now.

    This is exactly what happened with our marijuana laws, we change them so it was legalized and the U.S was complaing and crying to us before the bill was even passed. lot of countries say that they hate U.S and how they always interfere, they should try living next to them. >.>

    Series U.S government, this is why half the world hates you, because you are constantly sticking your fat ugly nose into other countries business and trying to change them to fit your way of life. Guess what, other countries are allowed to have laws that you don't agree with, U.S gov. always talks about all there freedoms but the second someone shows any sign of using those freedoms, they step in and put a law around w/e someone is doing.

    It's not U.S fault entirly, it's ours to and those stupid French leaders our idiot people keep electing have no backbone to stand up to the U.S and tell them to shut up and get lost. >.> I wish we had Trudeau, he was one of the few Priministers that had the balls to tell the U.S to **** off when they *****ed at us for our laws. U.S government needs to worry about it's own laws and leave the rest of the world alone to do there own thing, come try to change the world once you've finish your up and coming recession period. >.>

    P.S. - Please take note that I always said U.S Government. This is not an attack on it's people, I have lots of U.S friends and my gf is american. got no problem with the people, the people are fine....it's the people running your country that suck.

    Canada rules!

    For the people who share friends lists with me and Steph, you probably seen her blog about coloring her drawings into photoshop, well since hers turned out great, I decided it would be cool to color some of my pass drawing in photoshop. I worked on it in school cuz I have lots of free time in my class cuz I'm so far ahead of everyone else.

    There was no tutorial or instructions, just me and my PS toolbar and I think it came out great for a first try.

    Original sketch I scanned. Link

    After color, shading and shadows have been added. Link

    I am currently in the process of doing others atm. So I'll be posting 2 more at a later time.

    Okay, so I was suppose to get my shipping box last week so that I could send MS my console for repairs, well it never came. On Friday, I called them and told them that it's been 2 weeks, where is my shipping box.....it was suppose to be here within 3-5 days. They told me that because of a recent system update to the computers, certain repair orders never went through.....I was like great, gotta wait another week for the box and then more time for the repair.....accept she goes, "We aplogise for the time and delay, what we will do is just go ahead and send you a free new console and a free live gold card for your time".... O-o wait, what really?....sweet!

    I do have to send them my broken console as proof that I'm not trying to rip them off......so yah, free new console with the new chip set in it. Score! Also, my sister got her new credit card and you know girls once they get a hold of one of those, she had to try it out, so I said....just by me a game and she said okay....so I got a free game (NG2), console and live all this week.

    I hope this makes you all jealous, Canada rules....leave America.

    Everyone knows that one of my families computers went down. So in an attempt to get it fixed, my mom said a friend of hers at work used to work for a big media company so he knews all about removing viruses and stuff, so we gave it to him and he gave us the cold hard truth yesterday about how bad it was.......Your computer has 1400 viruses on it and half the registry is missing. ROFL! XD that's ownage. I say who cares, that comp is so old, we are getting a new one.

    Got back from a Suspention......how it happened, well I haven't been to OT in a long long time, months and months and I go back and within 3 posts get myself suspended, I kinda remind myself of Kramer off of Seinfeld where if someone in the group is gonna say something stupid or crazy it'll be me who says it. >< I need to learn to shut up and censor myself a bit more. I do think before I speak but sometimes I guess I don't think enough. Lol

    *cries cuz he lost photoshop*

    No, I did not get the 3 rings of death, my xbox360 works but I think it's scratching my game discs. GTA4 doesn't wanna work anymore, keep getting the dirty disc error, this happened to my brothers game to, after GTA4 stopped working, I looked at the disc and it's got small marks on the back and my other games to do now and I'm a freak when it comes to taken care of my disc, so there is no way they got there unless it was from the console.

    I think this also has to do with my console disc tray not wanting to open when it's standing up right, this started happening after it got knocked to the floor 3-4 times from his table. So yeah, I don't wanna risk more of my games so Monday Ms is getting a call for a shipping box so they can repair or replace my console. This couldn't of come at a worst possible time, Ninja Gaiden 2 is only one week and 3 days away.

    I love to do animations with any program capable of doing them, so I'm re-learning my animation skillz in PS. Didn't use Imageready cuz that program is more confusing to me and not really needed until you get into more advanced stuff anyway.



    Just a bit of animation in a sig I made for someone.



    I made this just for practise mainly, made the bug using the pen tool then made it crawl around the screen.



    and my pot smoking Panda. just some photo manipulation.

    okay, that's it. There were a few others but I'm not allowed to post them due to the content. >.> gotta go, my soup is here.

    P.S. - It's chicken Noodle. ^^

    Just wanted to mention a few things in a blog, I got my tax refund a few days ago......$850 bucks. except I had to pay out $600 towards bills, most of it went to paying for my plane tickets to California last March when I was visiting Steph. I have 200 left for me, which I bought 2 games so far with, Rise of a Ninja and GTA4, I'm also gonna get Ninja Gaiden 2 when it comes out June 3rd. I also gotta pick up a gift for Steph at the mall this weekend, but that's a secret, maybe a thong or something but that's more of a gift for me.

    I haven't had much time for games, since I've been busy helping my sister and her bf move into there new apartment. Also, it rained madcore the other day and the basement flooded, I grabbed my shotgun but then released I wasn't playing Halo. j/k

    I finished GTA4 a bit ago, didn't finish in 30 hours to get the Liberty City minute achievment cuz I was to busy doing everything else besides mission, ended up finishing it on 44 hours. I know I could get the achievement if I only did missions cuz i did about half the game in 5 hours. once I started consentration on the missions. GTA4 is one of the funniest games I've ever played. some much weird **** has happened to me.

    (example: During a mission, you steal this guys car while hes doing something in his trunk and you start driving and his hand is caught in the trunk and you're driving around dragging his ass all over the place, if you drive to fast he falls out but I drove slowly to keep him there, dragging him all over the city as I did the mission.

    In photoshop news, I made my first tutorial, it's a small simple one on how to make you're own custom shatter brush.

    done, out...later

    I used to photoshop alot, making sigs and banners for lots of people, entering into contest with my work but I've made a few blogs shoing off my work in the program but sometimes last year, I stopped useing it. I just got bored of it I guess, maybe cuz I felt I wasn't getting any better at it but recently thanks to Steph.....I got back into the program and have made a few things again, so I feel like sharing cuz I think they are better then anything I have ever made in the past which is kinda weird cuz I feel out of practise.


    These pieces are all me, no tutorials or nothing.....completely original. Note....these are not suppose to be sigs, just things I made in photoshop.



    I converted this one into a sig for DZ but this is the original piece





    This is the most recent one I've made. I like the colors on this one.

    Link cuz it looks kinda squished

    So that's it for now, rate if you like, I'll be doing more next week.

    I'm not really gonna say much cuz well, Steph already has a blog up for this but I thought I'd just throw a small one together to annoy everyone who has to read another blog on the same subject, take that you haters. >.>

    So yeah, it's 2 years for me and Steph now......to bad I'm back in Canada and we can't go out for the night together but we can make due with a long phone conversation. Only thing to say is, see you back here in another year for the 3 year blog.

    This calls for some music
