Allergies!
Mar. 20th, 2011 10:34 pmFAIL. I've had a miserable weekend because they've been kicking ass. I've been taking sinus meds and this strong antihistamine (something with a C...) that was NOT non-drowsy and knocked me out so I didn't wake up to walk Oliver yesterday or this morning. I have to go with Craig tomorrow to the GED training place in another part of Brooklyn (did I mention the one around here's registration is closed?), and we have to be there at nine, so I can't take the allergy pill again. Craig tried to get out of going to the training place by showing concern for my wellbeing, but I'm not stupid. I told him to stop trying to get out of it. He didn't say anything.
I DID finish my first comic for class, though, so the weekend wasn't a total loss. Every week we'll be starting a comic in class using a character we created specifically for those comics, mostly dealing with the senses. First one was Sense of Sight. I'm gonna try to make all of them humorous, but if humor doesn't fit, it doesn't fit. I believe the next one is Sense of Sound, and I already told Craig I'm thinking of giving Mel a younger brother and recreating the little episode where Craig scared the hell out of me by yelling me awake. He was like, OMG DO IT :D :D :D. XD
I still have to copy an existing comic page, but copying is the easier part. All that is is drawing what's already there. Making the stuff up is where it gets interesting. First comic came out great, though! A couple of mistakes here and there, but nothing too bad. Maybe I'll take a picture tomorrow at some point. Right now I'm trying to decide if I want to color it or not. It's not required, but we'll get extra credit on all in-class comics that we finish off with color. I just don't want to color it and mess it up.
Stuff to do this week:
--Draw some sketches for Gregory Corso's BOMB, for A&DS (tomorrow)
--Read Chapter 2 for Astronomy (tomorrow/Tuesday)
--Copy a comic page, break story up into ten parts, and write a full-script for page one for GN (all week)
Seriously, my head needs to stop now. Head, nose, all of it. -_-
