Well, well. I'm in the middle of summer vacation now... I haven't been doing much lately, I've been catching up on all the sleep I missed over the past school year (ie sleeping until 2 P.M. nearly each day). Most of the time, I'm just lounging around, eating fruit, drinking tea, and watching TV. It's way too hot and humid to go outside, and I detest going out in the sun anyhow. Right. Besides that, I've been talking a lot on the phone with my boyfriend (who just got dragged out of town to some stupid camp for 2 weeks, poor thing...). As for me, I pretty much just got back from a week-long local mission trip (which was really awesome).
As you can probably tell, I've gotten into "South Park" now. It all started with the movie "South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut"... I just found the movie hilarious, the satire rather clever, and I fell rather in love with the music. The lyrics were rather clever and the music itself sounded really good. In terms of art, you can expect some more South Park fanart coming soon enough...
Besides laying around and slacking off, I'm in a couple Dual-Enrollment college classes (Drawing I and Raster Graphics). I'm enjoying these classes a lot; the teachers, though old, are rather cool, to say the least. That'll keep me occupied for the rest of the summer, I reckon.
In addition to all this hullabaloo, my dad
kinda fixed my busted main computer, so that makes me happy.
The only thing really irking me right now is that most of my friends are busy these days...so I'm stuck at home every single day.
By the way, a note to you all... Do not harass me here on DeviantArt. It often turns out rather badly for the aggressors. I just got finished with dealing with a former "friend"'s harassment (including telling me to break up with my boyfriend and commit suicide through notes), and I'm not scared to report harassment. You have been warned.

"Who made you God/We're not all hardcore/Expand your horizons and get over yourself" Rant:
As above mentioned, I've developed an intrest in South Park, especially in the movie. Now, I was looking for a few reference screenshots for a little more fanart I was going to do, and I came across this website:
[link] . This website in a nutshell is a site devoted to "protect kids from bad movies/inform parents/etc." Yeah, right. My rant is...
1. Who died and made your organization God?
- Seriously, you people piss me off. You act as if you have the final word on what people can or cannot watch on TV and stuff. First of all, you aren't. People can watch whatever they please. Heck, there are "worse" movies out there than "South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut"; the South Park movie was only rated R. Have you people forgotten what the NC-17 rating means? Or, are you too timid to expand your knowledge on media in general? Point being, you can't decide for others what is okay and not okay to watch.
2. We're not all hardcore Christians, mind you.
- Look here. This is coming from a fellow Christian. Not all of us are hardcore like you people. Some of us like to let loose a little bit. I mean, what's the fun in life if you can't joke around a little? If we took everything seriously, we'd all die of stress in about a month because we live with other people. Furthermore, I take it that you're the type who will shove Bibles in random peoples' faces and preach eternal damnation rather than the salvation of Jesus. I get the gist that you're the ones scaring people away from Christianity. Well, maybe you ought to realize that
some people believe the same exact thing as you, but these people have lives.
3. We're not retarded, m'kay?
- First of all, you'd have to be living under a rock (pretty much) if you haven't ever heard of "South Park". Yes, it is a cartoon, but it's aimed at
teenagers and older viewers. Any parent with common sense wouldn't show anything South Park related to their children until their coming of age. In addition,
anyone with common sense would know that it's supposed to be a
comedy; most (if not all) of it is a
joke. It's
not supposed to be taken seriously. It's just pure common sense. What is there to figure out? Perhaps, you should try to figure out that not all people are raised as innocent little freaks who know nothing at all.
4. If you don't like it, don't watch it. It's not that hard.
- Again, this is common sense. If you don't like the movie's content, then don't watch it. It's not that hard. Even if you did try to pull the movie from store shelves, what good would that do? (I get the feeling that you're the ones against "Harry Potter" and such, even if it's just
fiction.) There's something called bootleg movies, YouTube, and Google. It's too bad that you hate every "bad" movie, but you're going to have to live with it.
5. Get over yourselves.
- In your review, it was written that: "In the months that followed our posting of this analysis report we received thousands of emails from adolescents who have seen this movie and spoke just like it. With the same or more severe level of contempt for wholesome and righteous ethics. I would post examples of their email here but most of them would look like "You --- ---, ---. You are a --- and a ---. Go --- ---. And see who cares about your --- ---, you --- --- sorry --- --- --- ---. --- my ---. And Satan's, too, you --- uncle ---- donkey ---." Just like South "Puke": Bigger, Longer, and Uncut. And some people actually believe movies do not influence kids." Well, excuse me. I am an adolecent, too, and did I go off and use swear words every two words? I think not. Not all teenagers are foul-mouthed brats like you portray here. By the way, calling names isn't going to help your image, at least to my like-minded bretheren.
6. All teenagers and their intrests are not evil
- Not everything related to teenage doings and humor is evil. Take for example, metal music. It's portrayed as "Satanic" and such...but have you ever thought of the (obscure) branch of metal music? Yes, there are Christian metal bands out there (ex: Underoath). Just because music has heavy guitar riffs and driving drumlines doesn't mean it's Satanic, mind you. I'll leave music and everything else to another rant for another time; point being, you people need to
expand your horizons and lighten up.
