Random Thoughts/Things?

I wasn’t really sure what to call this thread, but I’ve had this idea floating around in my head for awhile now. Basically, anyone can post anything here. Any random thought you have, any random thing that happens to you, any random question that pops into your mind. Have fun, and don’t be afraid to be random.

Oh NO I'm at the edge of another hiatus...really, WHY did I start another giant writing project (aka. ski lodge) just when school was starting, when I had the ENTIRE summer to post that thread and finish several parts.

I'm really hoping that what happened to my written picturings is NOT going to happen to my ski lodge, not after all the hours I've spent working on it and aLl tHat tImE.

My home is relatively far from the city, but construction sites insist on popping up right outside campus and now the beautiful horizon of fluffy clouds and green mountains outside my window has been completely vandalized by a bunch of drab, blocky buildings- 

Honestly, they give me eye infection just by looking at them. I need to rent a wrecking ball somewhere.

What is the point of architects these days if apartments just look like glorified bricks?

i don't know, that sounds visually interesting to me. there is beauty in all things

ack that sounds aWfUl - and i agree, modern art & architecture is pathetic in my opinion. i once heard about someone who stuck a banana on a pllate, and it sold for millions of dollars...

no, i totally agree about modern art sucking. shapes alone are not beautiful. there's beauty in them, but they aren't beautiful. that takes intent.

I finally figured out what my costume is gonna be for Halloween!

So, I originally wanted to be Gamora from Guardians of The Galaxy (BTW, Star-Lord NEEDS his own movie), but my parents said that what she wore was too "inappropriate" for me. Then I said "Well, then I'll be Madame Hydra", AND THEY SAID THE SAME THING THEY SAID 'BOUT GAMORA.

Well, I finally figured out what I wanna be: Phoenix Arizona Fieldman, aka Firebird, a superhero I made up. I made her up one day when I was role-playin' with myself in my room (I talk to myself a LOT), and in my roleplays, she's Star-Lord's love interest (aka she's his girlfriend, and then they get married), and I told my mom my idea, and she said yes.

All she's gotta do it make the wings, and we gotta find some boots and maybe a belt for the costume. Mom already bought the hair color spray (which I was gonna ask for anyway, so that's good), and I gotta dig out my red t-shirt, black leggin's, and my red sparkly headband. I drew a picture of what I want the costume to look like, and Rory is gonna draw another one, with a mask and superhero logo.

(Also, if anyone says I'm too old to trick-or-treat, I'll just say that I like gettin' free candy that lasts for 'bout a month or two LOL)

@Admins, could I put a picture of the things needed for the costume, and then put a pic of me wearin' it when it's done (I'll make sure my face isn't in it).

We would post a picture of your costume items, but not of any person, even if the face doesn't show.

About Em's question, what if I take a picture of myself wearing my costume, erase all visible body parts, then draw my CB-appearence wearing it, would that be allowed? (Writing this, I suddenly feel like this is an obvious answer but it could not be so sorry if it is)

I think we'd have to reserve our answer until we see what you submit.

My mom randomly signed me up for an art class, which is not the problem, the problem is I'm too exhausted to even think about more human interaction

This probably isn't good advice, but...cut out ear shapes in the fabric, and a tail shape? There's probably a template somewhere...

You could attach the ears to a hood (of a sweatshirt) or a hat. You can stuff a sock to make a tail, attach it to a belt you can wear.
