GOING TO JAPAN!

Allright, I allready sort of knew about it but my mom did this as a suprise! =D We’re going to Japan together next month. Ofcourse I have to pay the trip myself, but my mom did all the arrangement. It’s going to cost me a lot, but it’s so worth it! This has been something I REALLY wanted to do for years now, and now is the best time to finally do it.

We’re leaving on the 2th of July and come back on 24th July. Yes I’ll be gone with my birthday, but I don’t mind =) I’ll celebrate it in somewhere in August! Ofcouse I won’t forget all your birthdays either (so many in July!!) and I will buy gifts for everyone <3 And I’ll miss everyone ofcourse ; -;

This blog will be my travel documents! I will try to upload my stories and pictures everyday. I have internet connection in the hotel, only thing I need to do is borrow a laptob somewhere .__.; But that will work out fine. I’m sooo excited! But I still don’t realise it’s only one week away from today. I have to work everything out, everything I want to see. If you have any great tips they’re very welcome =D Or if you know some good stores.

Oh by the way, Kiet and me went to Amsterdam yesterday to go to the cinema. We both wanted to watch Coraline before we went on holiday (he’s going on holiday next week as well). We went to Tuschinski because thats was one of the only places where they showed the original English version. I’m soooo happy we finally watched that movie! it was GREAT! It left me with a great feeling inside. The stop motion work was sooo gorgeous, I just loved the ackwardness and dark side of the movie. The story and music was really good as well!! I don’t really think it’s a childrens movie, way too scary. Thats probably why it’s so underrated. If you have a chance you should really go see it!

Oh and before I go to Japan I still have to take care of a lot of things. Next week I have two new entrance exams, one in Genk and one in Rotterdam. I’m a bit nervous about them, but also look foward to it. I hope I get accepted this time! I really want to study animation, alltough it’s hard to find a job in that world ; -;

On a lazy sunday I decided to decorate my ds case that has been lying in my closet for quite a few months now! It was fun to do, maybe I should make a job out of this. Too bad my back hurts after a day. This is made with a lot of tiny (1,5 mm) rhinestones and some pearl crap! And ofcourse Mymelody <3

bad week

This week had been wild and crap. Tuesday I had intake for HKU. I just finished my products and went to Hilversum. We had to lay down our stuff and wait for a really long time. Finally we had to sit in a big classroom and they called out our names if you passed or not.
My heart was pounding so hard I could almost hear it. When they finished the list my name wasn’t called. I felt really bad about it. I just wanted to dissapear. We had to get back our portfolio and stuff from the classroom, but I forgot my bag so I had to return. After that I couldn’t find the classroom back and I walked around in circles for 10 minutes.
When I finally found it I wanted to get my stuff, but there was a lady sitting there snobbing: Can you hurry up? We’re having our conversations here. She was so rude! There wasn’t even anyone there, they where only drinking their coffee. With tears in my eyes I hurried and took my stuff and got out of there.
I was really upset because I worked so hard for this. Drawing is the only thing I’m sort of good at, and even this wasn’t enough. I’m not sure what I’m gonna do now, maybe try at Genk or Rotterdam. But I don’t think I can handle another dissapointment. Maybe I’ll try again next year!

The day after was the Dir en Grey concert. That was sort of fun! I could release the stress a little bit. I did drink a little bit too much so I was a bit tipsy. I got a lot of bruises from that night, because we where standing near the pit. I fell on my knees a lot, but got pulled up the entire time haha.
The concert itself was dark and I couldnt really hear the vocal. But they played The Final <3

Friday we where supposed to go to ILA, but I got too drunk and we didn’t even made it to the entrance. I’m really embarrased about what happened. I’m staying away from the alcohol for a looong time.

My life turned into kind of a mess, I’m really not sure what to do next. I’m think I should take a break from everything and just relax a bit. I’ll be going on vacation on July 2th untill July 24th. My mom booked everything as a suprise so I don’t know where we’ll be going yet (although I have my feelings about it! It’s awesome) I’ll be missing a lot of birthdays, uncluding my own! But I’ll bring lots of birthday presents for all of you :3

Art new Zelda game

The picture Miyamoto showed in private to a small group of delevopers hitted the internet. Looks like it will be Twilight princess style! The figure shown in front of Link is rumoured to be the human incarnation of the Master sword. (which would make sense if you look at her designs)

Looks awesome O: 2010 will be rockin my socks!

New shoes!

Yesterday was my last day at my intership! We had to go film in Weert, it was so exhausting .__. I had to be there at 07:30 and was finished at 17:00.

But I’m finished now, looking back I feel happy and a bit dissapointed. I did learn some things, but they didn’t even properly thank me for everything I did for them. I saved them lots of money for the things I did and I get nothing .__. (not even a flower of a gift-coupon). They would still call me if they had a holiday job for me (I doubt that will happen).

Well I’m never doing a non-paid intership ever again. But at least I finished my studies now, so I don’t care. Everything I did was to finish this last 4 years with a paper. (yes I only did it for the paper! XD) I still have to redo a few things, but they’re not very hard.

Yesterday we went to celebrate the end of our interships! We went looking around at the shopping centre. I saw super-cool shoes! And looked at the price they where only 30 euro =) (at first they where 99,95) So cheap! I fitted them and really liked them. This was the first time I brought shoes in 10 minutes XD

Now I have to work hard on my intake assignments! GOGO FIGHTINGU

Small talk & Golden Sun!!

I’m knotting the loose ends now. Today I had my presentation at work for school. I had to show my final products and the process. And everything went really well! We where talking for an hour while the presentation supposed to be only 10 minutes =] She was really excited about my finished work so that felt great!

Another step closer to a diploma, I can’t wait till I can say that I’m offially done with that school! It was though sometimes but I made it near the finish :) Next month I have to redo a few small things, but I don’t think I’ll be busy with that for the entire month. So I want to enjoy my free time as much as possible! Maybe shopping in amsterdam and stuff, just using up my last month of free transportation =D.
And I still want to see Coraline in the cinema! It just pisses me off that they only show it dubbed in dutch at Eindhoven at the most impossible times ever. So I guess I will go to amsterdam =]

Next week I also have entrance exams for the HKU! I’m really nervous about it, my mood goes up and down the entire time. I still haven’t finished all the products so I still have to fight to get it done (while I started with them a few months ago .__.) I’m just feeling a bit uneasy, I do have de confidence but I’m still scared. Whatever the outcome is, I still tried the best I can =]

But al that will be revealed next week!! Oh another excitement (for me) Golden Sun DS has FINALLY been announced!! I’ve been waiting for that since the release of the DS, and almost given up hope that it would be true. But on the E3 this evening they suprised me good! =) (also Mario galaxy 2 and metroid have been confirmed)

Pimp up your sneakers!

I had this idea spooking in my head for years, but I never got to it. I’m a big fan of Bobsmade (check google or deviantart) and I really wanted to pimp sneakers with my own design. I brought some fake all-stars for 7 euro at schoenenreus, and also some textil markers at Pippoos. I didn’t really knew what I would paint on them so I just started to draw random crap. They’ve become chocolate shoes!! They look allright, not what I would’ve want them to be, but at least I know it’s fun to do! So I’ll think I will pimp another pair with a beter design.

Ninokuni: The another world [DS]

There’s been a little update about The Another world (DS). The game still has a long time to come out, Studio Ghibli got it’s entire team working on it. I swear this game is gonna be simply gorgeous! Too bad the DS screen won’t bring the beauty of the animation to its rights.

Ninokuni_3

With an interview with the president of studio ghibli they said: "When Ghibli has its entire staff working on a project, they can produce about five minutes’ worth of theater-quality animation a month". No wonder every frame looks like a painting. Also a bit of the story and characters is revealed. I also didn’t know Miyazaki hated videogames! XD

The release in Japan will be in late 2009 (if not delayed).  I can hardly wait!

Read the full interview here.

Update!! More screenshorts and official art here.
