  • Mood: Lonely
  • Listening to: Nightmare- WHITE ROOM
  • Reading: Reading these pitiful words as I type them.
  • Watching: The calendar shed its pages.
  • Playing: Nothing unfortunately.
  • Eating: Nothing.
  • Drinking: Nothing.
I would like to apologize to all my watchers and to everyone else for my lack of producing new works of art. Recently, I've been experiencing a great amount of artist's block, and stress. Stress, from where? You may ask. I would like to direct your attention to the 2009 Calendar. Here I would like to indicate that February 14th, or more commonly known as "Valentine's Day", is quickly approaching. Yes, 'tis true. The net of confusion has ensnared me once again. Who is she? That is not important. What is important is that I don't lose this. I musn't. Fear not, I've already anticipated a negative answer, so there's nothing to worry about. I just hope I am dead wrong like I usually am. For those of you that support my cause, I am truly grateful. For those that are apathetic, I don't blame you. You most likely anticipate the same answer that I have. In that case, I hope you are mistaken as well.

As for my art, I will most likely have a revised edition of "Venus" or a piece relating to Valentine's Day soon. Nonetheless, I still have many unfinished works, that will hopefully be finished. For those of you that keep track of my slow progress, I'd like to inform you that I feel I have improved from my last drawing. Furthermore, I will most likely submit my Valentine's letter in my gallery. "Most likely" depends (probably) on the her answer.

As for my last journal entry, it's unfortunate that I did not reach 2-3 dan level by September. In fact, I am not sure anymore what my rank is anymore. In other words, I have failed. Therefore, I will resume serious games of Go sometime soon, to redeem myself. If I receive the anticipated answer, this will most likely be far from now.

To all of my watchers I am truly grateful for everything. Please continue to watch my gallery for better pieces. For all of this reading this letter, I hope you can bestow some better confidence in me, which I lack. I hope I receive a "Yes". If not, I know not what will befall my already scathed heart. For all of you reading this, thank you.

Oh Cupid, why dost thou strike me with thy arrows of confusion?

P.S. I am pleased to announced that as of now, my piece "Blue Stone" is my most viewed piece in my gallery with around 111 views! If you have not previously viewed it, please do.

If I am unsuccessful in composing my next entry on the following date, please accept my apologies:

**NEXT JOURNAL ENTRY WILL BE: FEBRUARY 14, 2009**

I need not say much as my Art shows you whom I am. Since the seventh grade, it has been my ambition to become a successful manga-ka. As of now, I have about 3 sketchbook filled with ideas and my characters, and aspire to see them one day published and mass produced for all to enjoy.

My art, as mentioned above, consists of manga. However, I also tend to write poetry. Although, I have no real goals for my poetry, I write them to express myself and for the satisfaction of my watchers.

Unlike what I submit, my taste for Art is quite large. I truly love photography--or as I call it-- the art of capturing Time. For the most part, I tend to favor traditional art over technologically enhanced pictures. However, this does not mean I am oblivious of the effort and passion put into these pieces.

Other than the art I submit, I play Go, a game where creativity often brings about victory. Furthermore, I have great interest in the Music field of Art. If you ever meet me in person, chances are I am wearing headphones. Currently, I am teaching myself how to play piano using a keyboard, the Internet, and dedication.

Hope you have learned something new about Shinato-Kawasaki. As always, your time viewing my work is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I have so much homework to make up now. they don't allow us to miss school after a trip.

I ended up buying sunscreen at a gift shop next to the restaurant where we ate breakfast. It was reaaally expensive. $8 for a 3oz bottle
Oh dear. Well, the math homework was quite straightforward, so it should not take you long. Maybe you can use your Study Hall? You should definitely get some rest though. It must have been a tiring trip.

Oh my O.O That IS expensive o.o But then again, it IS Florida ^^

How was your trip? Other than the fact that it was more fun than school could ever be. Go on any rides? Last time I went to Disney World was when I was seven years-old T.T My youth was so much more fun-filled than my present day life. How disheartening TT____TT

Unfortunately I don't have a study hall. I audit choir during that time. but I did end up finishing the homework....at around 1am...

It was fun. I did go on a few rides though none were as good as the ones at Six Flags. I think my favorite would be Tower of Terror. I went on it twice. The fireworks at Magic Kingdom were amazing. The last time I went to Disney was also around ten years ago. I don't remember much about it.
Oh my, how did you survive on Monday with like five hours of sleep in that hot weather? Helen-san is very strong ^^ I know I would have most definitely fainted if put into such conditions @___@ Especially with these darn allergies that are driving me insane T.T

So true. Disney is better for sight-seeing in my opinion since they have a ton of cool stuff. Especially those people dressed up as Disney characters ^_^ I recall going to Skull Mountain in Six Flags when I was five-ish (?). Haha, I don't remember a thing except that my mother told me to close my eyes if I got scared (which I did). I should go again sometime, and this time I won't be (as) scared ^^ Man, I love fireworks, a true marvel of science. Grr, I hope the Art people get to go to Disney World next year >.<

I'm lucky my allergies are barely noticeable. Sometimes (rarely) I'll get itchy eyes and I sneeze a bit more often than I usually do but that's it.

I miss Disney so much. This week seemed to pass veeery slowly and the weekend very quickly.
