meitantei_cjSeriously. I wanna watch it again, but maybe later. I'm already tearing up. Again. They handled Van Gogh's mental illness SO well, too. I was worried they'd gloss over it because lots of little kids watch this show. It's good they didn't, because people have to learn about it sooner or later. Beautiful episode. <3
Other news... de Blob sequel has a general release time! Yay!
It's in Spring 2011! Boo. Of course, it's de Blob, so I'll wait as long as it takes. Love that game. And the DS version is finally happening, too.
Hair's been taken out, washed, and trimmed. Mom wasn't happy about its length (even though it'd grown at least an inch, but because it hadn't been straightened out, it looked much shorter), but I like it. It's like a little shorter than chin-length right now. I had it shoved underneath a winter hat, and the hair was just long enough to poke out of the bottom. I didn't perm it since that would set me back--still planning on locking my hair--so it's just been pressed. The humidity will play havoc with it, I'm sure, but that's okay. Having it out is temporary, just to let it breathe a bit. I'm either going to braid it up again, or find some place to start the locking process.
Have homework to work on. Two illustrations, one started in class but still missing some stuff before I can color it, one still in the planning stages (I had an idea for it that involved an extreme close-up, but I've realized I might not be able to do it that way because the donkey's skin should be visible). Also need to work more on the Cezanne copy.
(In the aftermath of Doctor Who, I SWEAR I want to change my painting decision and go back to Van Gogh. I wanted to do one of his paintings--either one of the ones with the cypresses or The Starry Night--and chickened out once I saw them in person and how utterly complex they look. I'm only in Beginning Painting, after all, and we're not supposed to use a grid to help us. But damn if they didn't just cement The Starry Night in place as my favorite painting ever. I might actually e-mail Prof. Segre and ask if I can switch. We have to say a little something about the artist we pick, and I really want to just dive into a biography of Van Gogh now.)
