I've Come Out of Draw Something Retirement

Yes, after leaving the game for almost 6 months, I'm back into Draw Something. And my pictures are getting more elaborate than ever.

I made some cutesy pics at the start:

Brains

Mozart

Sugar. As in Sugar Mama. Seriously, do you remember this show??

And then I decided to just go all out and throw in tons of stuff like anatomy, shading, backgrounds, etc...

Crossbow. In case you didn't guess from the 'brains' drawing,
 I watch "The Walking Dead." And if Daryl (or Glen) dies, I will riot.

Eminem. I was going for that iPod commercial look.

Slash

Speak. As in, "Speak Now," by Taylor Swift

Sphinx
Jack. "There should be a 'captain' in there somewhere."

And of course, I had to draw some Hitlers in my pictures.

Insect.

Pacman

Looking back on this picture, I just feel bad. The word is Japan, but I drew Korea. Which, coincidentally, has the exact same number of letters. I am not a nice person.

Another Les Mis Post





A Deleted Scene From Les Miserables





It's like she has ESPN or something.


I should note that the idea for this originally came from my brother Jon. If you're interested, check out his rather detailed review of the film.

The Problem With Using Big Name Actors in Les Miserables

This is the first thing that I thought of during this scene in the movie.






Edit: Apparently Ginger Haze put it on the internet first. Dang it. But you should check out her Tumblr, it's pretty good.

What I'm Thankful for This Thanksmas

Yeah, I normally do this on Thanksgiving, but I got pretty lazy this year. So let's just call this a Thanksgiving/Christmas list. A Thanksmas list. So without further ado, here's a list of some things I'm thankful for:

  • Not having much snow this year. I know, it's bad for global warming and the Utah economy, but I got to walk to school in that crap.
  • Also, having NO snow last year for the same reason.
  • But having enough snow in the mountains right now to go skiing
  • My calling in church. Seriously, Ward Prayer Co-Chair is the best thing ever. It's a ward leadership calling in my ward, but I have to do next to nothing. And it's a pretty social calling too.
  • The Wendy's near the Tanner Building. I've been eating there 2-3 times a week. The cashier knows me.
  • The free Frosty key chain I have. I think I've gotten about 100 free Frosty's this year.
  • The fact that I can get about 2,000 calories off the dollar menu for $5 at Wendy's.
  • Group members who do good group work (evil stare at one group member from this last year).
  • The fact that I survived spending 16 straight hours on campus one day late in November.
  • Getting a 97% on an Art History final and beating the art majors at their own game. Suck on that, liberal arts majors!
  • Lists. 
  • That my major does not require me to write giant research papers for classes like certain Art History classes do.
  • That I have a job offer. Related to my major.
  • Facebook friends that tag me in photos (my parents are grateful for that too, beeteedubs. It lets them know that I actually have friends).
  • Disneyland.
  • That we don't live in a zombie apocalypse,
  • but that I'm prepared for one in case I ever have to. Thanks, Walking Dead.
  • People who are engaged, but don't feel the need to be constantly touching each other.
  • Chester the Molester.
  • Chester the Molester not dying this year.
  • Surviving my first car accident in TLC, the other car I drove this summer.
  • As well as the time TLC somehow had one of its tires impaled by a set of pliers while on I-15. Literally impaled.
  • And the time the hood on TLC decided to flip open while driving on I-15.
  • That I don't have to repent for hating a car.
  • My bishop.
  • My ward.
  • Not getting hit by cars while riding my bike in Provo. . .Yet.
  • The friend who convinced me to run a half marathon.
  • The friend who introduced me to Doctor Who.
  • The friends who didn't get all political on Facebook this last election.
  • The friend who always invites me to dance parties.
  • The friend who says she loves my laugh, in spite of how obnoxious it is.
  • The friend that was willing to be dragged through the BYU Art Museum and look at all the works of art with me.
  • The friend that always lights up when people she knows enter the room.
  • The friend who introduced me to frappes.
  • Friends in general. Good grief I'm blessed.
  • The roommate who did my cleaning check for me.
  • The roommates who are willing to listen to my dating stories and gripes.
  • My roommates in general.  Seriously, they're great.
  • Sunlight
  • That time late at night when everything becomes hilarious.
  • Sunday dinners.
  • Stargazing.
  • Frozen food.
  • Family.
  • Kittens.
  • The fact that I can list this many things to be Thankful for.
  • The Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Thanks for the great year everybody!
