Wreck This Journal

I thought I'd post something that's a little more relevant to the "stuff" part of my URL today.

So I bought a Wreck This Journal like... 3 months ago, maybe, and if you don't know what it is it's a book where you pretty much end up destroying it by the end. I used to love art (not the teachers though) in school but after about year 11 I just didn't feel creative anymore, everything I drew was utter crap and I ended up feeling uninspired for a good 3 years. But the good thing about these is they're cheap and they give you vague instructions which is always a good guideline to have.
The point of this post is to pretty much just post all the pages I've done so far (which is about 8 maybe) as possible idea inspirations for anyone who happens to find it/ anyone who cares and because I sure as hell like seeing what other people have done to theirs.
1. The "credits and acknowledgments"  page

This page was done with these weird calligraphy felt pens my dad brought home from work one day. They're nice but damn they go through the pages. Eventually I want to do that page on the left there but today is not that day.





2. The instructions thingamabob

To be honest I bought some watercolour paints from Hobbycraft for the express purpose of colouring in this book. I painted the flowers (you can tell because that lil blue one by the arrow is bugging me cause it's real bad) and I painted these whilst I was watching the C.I channel on tv (fun fact of the day for ya there right)


3. PAAAAGE NOMBRES

Don't really know what to say about this one so I'ma just leave it as is







4. The "Don't-Talk-To-Me-About-That-Drawing-Okay" Page

Obviously the title of this one refers to the left hand side. I can't draw anything to do with people so that's a thing. I like the rose and the whole monochrome thing it's going onnn but the fiery spine is not a good look. Oh well, I digress.




5. SHOES! COLOUR! - Captain Obvious

To be honest this is one of my favourite pages. I legit traced around my shoes which is why they just about fit and then decided that "Dang son this page needs some colour. And monochrome. Basically all the colour wheel" et voila. Here we are. Woo.




6. Eff Coffee mayn

Confession: I hate coffee. I like tea and did in fact try flicking some on this page but all that happened was the page went soggy and see through but I TRIED. There's a slight orange juice stain on there somewhere but that's about it. Also that's meant to be a cup of coffee not a cup of liquid godknowswhat.


7. Stanley Yelnats style

You can't even see the holes but they're there. Somewhere. Lurking. This took like half an hour and I was half-watching Mr Selfridge/half-sleeping. These pointless TV schedule tidbits are pointless but I'm going to include them anyway. Once again my magical mystical paint set and I wanna do something with that blank page but I have not yet decided. Oh well.


8.  That;s a bit hands on

Lotsa colour. Traced hands. yadda yadda yadda. That one on the left was actually supposed to be red not fifty shades of orange (move on over christian grey you fiend) but you know shit happens, can't always control your colours.





9. When she turns 16, she will prick her finger and.. DIE *evil cackle*

I can't draw faces. Or hands. Or people related paraphernalia. I tried but on the bright side, look how fierce that bird looks. To be honest Sleeping Beauty is my favourite disney movie. Maleficent is a boss bitch who does not give a single fuck, she just wanted to go to a damn party, King. And Aurora says like 7 lines and shuts the hell up. My kind of movie - villain orientated.


10. BULLSEYE

This one isn't as detailed I literally got paint on my brush and stabbed my book like I'm one of the women on Snapped: Women Who Kill. I didn't throw it at it - primarily because I was half watching The Jeremy Kyle Show and also pretty much couldn't muster up the effort to stand. Fun times.




11. Scratchy scratchy

Well yippee-kay-ey look who learnt how to draw a tree that looks like a tree! This girl.
I actually used a big ole kitchen knife to do this one which is probably not the safest thing to do but my house keys were being useless. It actually went through a couple of times which is a right pain in the butt but y'know sometimes when you're using a knife it pierces the paper what can ya do?


12. A Dollar makes me holla honey boo boo child

For this one I made our family friend bring over a shit ton of foreign coins (all of which are mostly in blue) because he travels all the time which isn't fair but whatever. Yeah this one's pretty simple except I can't fill a lot of that white space because I A) Ran out of coins and B) That bloody tree cocked it up by being knifed. So rude.



YEah that's pretty much my thing so far. I wanna get more pages done soon but lately I cannot for the life of me be bothered.
P.S. Sorry for typing like a bored high schooler but I slightly forgot how to string actual adult sentences together which is why it's pretty much all over the place.

LEGO MOVIE

PLEASE WATCH THIS MOVIE IT IS THE BEST AND THE CAST IS PERFECT AND JUST GO AND WATCH IT.

The Sound Of My Voice

Soooooo
I recorded and watched "The Sound of My Voice" today (right after at least 7 episodes of Judge Judy... That lady is a hero!) and I thought I should jot down some thoughts.

- WHAT. THE. HECK. I don't know what the ending was all about but I mean she kinda abducted a small child and hung out with her in the back room of a museum. I don't care if she IS your future mother honey, that kinda behaviour is creeeeeeeeeeepy.
- Peter wanted to baaaaang future Maggie. Dude you have a girlfriend, stahp.
- I'm sure someone could have handed Maggie/Shelly/FutureGuest some clothes when she was wandering the streets in raggy bedsheets. Come on y'all, that was rude.
- Her grand proof she was from the future was a song by the Cranberries from the 1990s which is casually super pops because "IF I TOLD YOU YOU WOULDN'T UNDERSTAND." Oh Maggie, you special snowflake you.
- Not a lot actually happened. Definitely thought it'd be way more creepy since y'know the majority of it took part in a basement...
-... Though the basement had nice carpet and was quite cosy so I dunno maybe it was to go against the cliché dodgy, dark and downright scuuuury basement archetypes

Honestly I wouldn't really watch it again. Or download it on Sky+. Might have to replace the like 1% of the memory it took up with Breaking Amish L.A or something.

P.S. I am back helloooo hi hola

Gonna watch and recap Session 9 and Gravity (if I can find a copy) and prolly the blair witch project tomorrow because I'm a terrible blogger and an even worse procrastinator and if any of you are real people reading this I AM SORRY.

Hey Recappers! (cute name 4 u)
Haven't posted shit in a while because I was taking a looooooong ass break because I'm a lazy lil shit :)
HOWEVER (If any of you still give a crap)
I have this ridiculous list of movies I just wrote down which took up like 10 post it notes( because I'm obsessed with them) in my booky book to get through!

So that'll keep me occupied for a whiiiiiile :D
Peace out

Irrelevant post is irrelevant
