POST#101: CHRISTMAS!!!

My Christmas tree and presents :)


Hey guys! Happy Holidays! Today we're discussing Christmas :) . I almost couldn't sleep that night, and then I woke up at 11:00 a.m :P ... So, my presents were:

1. the Guinness Book of World Records
2. Pink Beats headphones :D         
3. an iTunes giftcard
4. 2 Amazon giftcards                      
5. Just Dance 2014
6. The Shade of The Moon (book) 
7. Despicable Me 2 
                                                     8. a spin-art making kit                     
                                                     9. Our Moment by One Direction <3
                                                   10. a gingerbread house making kit 


Santa was pretty awesome this year ;)  The night before (Christmas Eve), Mom made a delicious dinner spread of traditional foods (arroz con gandules, chuletas, and garlic bread) and before supper we had some finger food, like a mini party, but with my Mom, Dad, and myself only. I also went to visit my Grandma and washed the car for the first time, and I had fun :) Oh, and tomorrow I'm going to a wedding! And since this is the last post of the year, Happy New Year!



Happy weekend!

POST#100: LAST DAY OF SCHOOL!!!!!


Hey guys! My last day of school was on Wednesday, and since it was a half day, me and my friends went out. First we ate pizza at Papa John's, and we were so loud, the clerk told us to shut up because she didn't hear the customers on the phone! After we ate, we went to the movies to see the new Thor movie (it was my second time seeing it but I fell asleep the first time :P), and since we got pretty early to the theater, we just pretty much monkeyed around the concession stand and the arcade. We bought our movie snacks, and we settled into our seat. Since almost everybody has seen it, and everyone wants to see the new Hobbit movie, we had the theater to ourselves. The movie was REALLY GOOD, and featured Loki a little bit more actually. 



Happy weekend!

POST#99: DRAWING!!!


One of the many drawings ;)
Hey guys! Today we'll be talking about a drawing week long seminar that I'm taking. So the seminar is in a local comic book store called Mondo Bizarro, and is being taught by an animator who has worked with Pocahontas and Space Jam, Ivan Camilli. Cool, I know ;) So the seminar is three hours a day, Monday thru Friday (today) and also next Monday, for a total of 18 HOURS. He's teaching us how to develop characters from scratch and draw them like really rough, then adding the details and refining it. BTW, I'm the only kid in the class, the others are in their early 20s, late teens I think :P It's really awesome! 



Happy weekend!
