Have you ever had a moment where suddenly everything clicked?
Yeah, totally happened to me today.
See I've been told my pictures are too flat. I didn't get it, to me they were 3d enough. Then a kind guy on CA showed me how to draw in 3d. He was kind about it, showed me examples, and even wrote in a tutorial on how to draw heads.
I spent all night last night working on them. I could not for the life of me understand what he meant. Carving into a 2d sphere? What? No, not possible.
Then while I was at work I noticed something. I could hear my brain go "SHIT I GET IT NOW." It felt like a faucet that had been rusted shut was finally open. I could see in 3d, sense it, and I felt I could finally draw it.
So here I am. I've been home for about four hours, and I've spent at least an hour or two just drawing. I mean... here lemme show you.

Does that mean I can suddenly be super profession lykeomg? No. What it does mean is that the glass ceiling finally shattered. I've felt it before with Japanese, and now it's with drawing.
I'm sure I'll hit another ceiling, but for now, it feels like I'm finally free.

I just had a long phone call with Shannon (
shannoni). Lordy loo from crying to laughter to any topic, we talked about it.
Which comes to my next point... SOP. I send it out tomorrow night or Monday, I get a strict review for it tomorrow from dad then it's gone. I haven't worked on the old nor new one much, but this is what I've got. I need some serious, serious help because I cannot find a way to write this thing. I read that I need to write this in such a way that JET would want me, but I don't have the experience nor the skillset for me to showcase any skills I have. In other words: other candidates are better for this program than I am and I don't know what to say to prove that otherwise.
Below the cut is my new SOP based off of a few questions/an outline Beth threw at me. I can feel it's way better than the first one, but I need your discerning eyes to see if there's something I'm missing/writing wrong.
( God I hate writing these. I hate this as much as I hate suggestive selling and people that aren't true to themselves. )

Yes, TEXAS, and Dallas to boot! It's holding my theory true: California will be the last to fall. Yes, even Texas will accept gay marriage before California.

When a girl is bored, a girl is bored. I love football but I gotta do something during the down time. Why do you think all of my drawings seem to spew from Saturdays? XD
Anyways, this is a sketch I'm working on of Angela Aki from the back of her Tegami single. It's not done, but it is being done on white paper, so it'll be a real sketch worthy of... something.

Guess who has a job~! I DO!
Okay so it's McDonald's, but I DON'T GIVE A FUCK. I'm getting paid 7.25 an hour, which is what I made at Disney so yay! Orientation is Monday at 5pm (they don't do orientations Fri-Sun) and my first day at work is, pending I go to orientation, on Tuesday at 8 am! YAY I GET TO DO BREAKFAST. I love the early shifts. I may have to go to bed at 10pm but I'm done and have the rest of the night to myself. :D
You have no idea how excited I am. I don't care if it's McDonald's, I've worked there before, I'm going to work there again, and I'm going to have a fucking job. I'll have a job, I'll HAVE A FUCKING JOB.
Excuse me while I wait for dad to shit bricks (and maybe get myself a time card /tee hee).
アンジェラさん、あたしを信じてくれてありがとう。

This is why you study every culture known to man. You can find the strangest, weirdest, most amazing things in a simple ritual.
The link is a funeral that's literally for the birds. Don't click if you disagree about humans being made of meat.
I warned you.
