I know it looks like I’ve long abandoned this project, but I just wanted to drop a note saying that is not the case! In fact I still spend a few minutes each evening churning out some sort of scribble or doodle, most of them far below sub-par, but I’m continuing nonetheless. The only part of this project I just can’t seem to keep up with is the blogging part, and posting pictures. It was just far too time consuming and I dreaded it so much that I ignored it. (Not the way to solve problems btw.) So I’m going to stop that, probably altogether, and just finish it for my own enjoyment. If I have anything worth posting I may do so. We’ll see. :D
This project has also helped me find a way of journaling, something I’ve always wanted to get in to. Mostly I just scrawl a sentence or two, and add a relevant doodle, but it’s more than I’ve managed to do before. So thank you to Maddy for that. :) Good luck everybody! We’re nearly there! (?)
23rd: Got some schoolwork done. Went and checked on the boxes I’m having made for art. They were coming along swimmingly.
24th: Woke up with the distinct feeling I’d had an awesome dream - and couldn’t remember it. I normally write down my dreams, but this one I had to let go. >:|
25th: Was looking through my old stuff, and found a necklace I forgot I had. Plus all of my units for Law class are DONE! :D Now, revision. T T
26th: Watched the 1998 made-for-television film Merlin with my mom and sister. We all suffered through 3 hours and 40 minutes of it and got to bed late. I was tired, and coming down with a cold.
(?)
Yesterday’s picture; contrary to what this dead tumblr would suggest, I haven’t stopped participating in this project! I draw a little something every day, usually right before I pass out go to sleep at night. I just keep failing to upload.
The rest of my more recent pictures (Feb 16 - March 21, yikes!) are on my blogspot. I canNOT bring myself to upload them all over here as well. ><
(?)
11th: I’m an artist, what are you talking about? xD
12th: It was only a matter of time. (<3)
13th: Did some actual sketches for a change. Nothing to do with my day, just made me feel like an artist again.
14th: I love profiles, but suck at drawing them. Hrm.
15th: Meteor!Cat will save the day!!! (Running on eleven hours of sleep that feels like two… problem.)
(?)
Feb 1st: I got really bored of doing the same stuff every day, so I did a really bad collage thingy with a wrapper and receipt.
Feb 2nd: Did more stuff for my art project - this time, my exam project which I’m basing around Joseph Cornell’s boxes. <3 Also started liking my new glasses - they’re exactly like my old ones but slightly lighter! (I’m afraid of change :P)
Feb 3rd: Busy: my perpetual life state, it seems. xD
Feb 4th: More art stuffs. <3
Feb 5th: Ninja Turtles was my ALL TIME FAVOURITE TV show as a kid. It’s slowly clawing its way back onto the podium.
Feb 6th: Saw a football (soccer) game, which to my surprise was a lot of fun! And watching Being Human again.
Feb 7th: Got bored of pencil and mucked around with some left over watercolours.
Feb 8th: More watercolours. I miss trees. :(
Feb 9th: You know when you wish you were somewhere else? I felt like that. Red flying fish FTW.
Feb 10th: UK premiere of Supernatural Season 5, baby! :DDDDDD I have waited so long for this, I’ve even managed to keep myself spoiler-free!! (A big accomplishment for me.)
(?)
Jan 24th: Got involved in my art project again; features watches, clocks and snails! Yay!
Jan 25th: Another crap day. These are happening way too often lately. -.-
Jan 26th: I’m very particular about my sketchbooks; I treat them more like a scrapbook and keep my drawings very sketchy and loose. One of my art teachers does the same thing so we geeked about it together for awhile.
Jan 27th: I feel bad about drawing this now. But it’s true.
Jan 28th: Fell of the wagon for the first time. Totally forgot. Was very upset at myself.
Jan 29th: Forgot AGAIN but faked it this time. Sort of. (Daybreakers was hilarious though. Seriously.)
Jan 30th: Finally saw Avatar, wasn’t as impressed as I’d expected but it was certainly good.
Jan 31st: Demolished a Galaxy bar today and drew on the wrapper in Sharpie. Was watching So You Think You Can Dance at the time.
(?)
submitSUNDAY (cont’d)
19th: I actually don’t remember drawing this picture so I must’ve been pretty tired. xD
20th: I LIVE in my school library. It’s the nicest (read: safest) place to hang out. The only problem is there are ENDLESS opportunities to get distracted from important coursework.
21st: I was really emo when I drew this because my sister pissed me off. That red stuff is blood, because I was too tired to draw proper gore like I normally do when I’m angry. (Very well adjusted am I.)
22nd: Another “I AM SO TIREDDED” picture. I need to stop doing this.
23rd: I woke up with a horrible cold but I got a letter from one of my best friends in Canada so that made up for it. :3
(?)
submitSUNDAY
Yeah, so about two weeks’ worth of drawings have built up and I’ve kept forgetting to scan them. iFAIL. -.-
9th: Watched District 9 for my mom’s birthday; awesome (if scary) movie recced by my dad. If nothing else it’s put me off prawns for life.
10th: I procrastinated a lot. What else is new? (My snails: Sterling Moss, Calypso, Blue and Radio in order of shell size.)
11th: Studied for my exam the next day. Yay for last-minute cramming. »
12th: I did my exam (pretty crappily I think) and procrastinated more as a present to myself. I also carried Lola my sock monkey around with me for comfort (I AM SUCH A KID).
13th: These two are my favourite stuffed toys from my childhood. Kovu from The Lion King 2 and an orca whale I cleverly named Blackie. They’re swimming or something I don’t know.
14th: One of my rare days of productivity. I wish I had more of them. They make me feel like less of a loser.
15th: This is a character in a story idea that’s been plaguing me for ages. Her name’s Macy and she works in a home decor shop.
16th: My calendars from http://www.calendarclub.co.uk/ arrived. :D I got a normal-sized one from Disney Pixar’s UP which is really nice, and a miniature one with Edward Gorey’s The Gashlycrumb Tinies.
17th: The productivity didn’t last long.
18th: Went to the gym for the first time in forever and got a bad case of selfconsciousitis. I hate that.

what do you think? really!? you think its a great idea?? alright! (hahah…. this is what i hope you’d say, but i’m just sounding crazy instead lol)
So anyway, how about some basic questions to get this started, maybe even start some conversations: 1. first name 2. country of origin 3. any interesting facts about you 4. favorite book/movie/tv show 5. youtube account?
ME- Sabrina, from the U.S., is a pisces and notorious for being late, likes watching House and Scrubs among other shows, and you can friend her on youtube at SuperSabby22.
