I'm having lots of trouble finishing posts.

I don't really know why, either. I just lately seem to be experiencing quite a bit of difficulty. Is it school stress? Writer's block? Other homework? Just like how many licks it takes to get to the center of a tootsie pop, the world may never know.
Ironically, I'm currently eating a tootsie pop. Maybe I should have counted the licks?
Actually, I don't really lick tootsie pops. I just kinda eat them like a normal person, you know?
I wasn't kidding, I actually AM eating a tootsie pop.
It's a chocolate one. Yummy.
I'm also in homework club right now. I don't know why this applies to this post at all, but I suppose it does, somehow. I think. After homework club, I have volleyball practice. This means that I likely won't get home until six tonight. *Sigh.*
I'm gettin' really tired of Homework club really fast. Somehow, I still have this lollipop. It's still tasty.
Oh man. I'm now one of the--get this--THREE other people in here.
At least I have my music!

Okay, now I'm just procrastinating.

Uh, what now?

I have no idea what to post about next.
Not anything personal, obviously. That stuff is super boring.
Like I said at some point earlier, I would like to keep my personal stuff off of this blog. I don't know, it's just I don't really enjoy reading about other people's problems, and so I'd like to keep this blog a light and happy atmosphere you can go to feel better, laugh, and generally procrastinate.
I want my readers to have fun reading my blog! Please, if you have any suggestions for posts or post ideas, post a comment. I'd love to contribute some of your art or work or something on my blog, or maybe even draw something for you!
I'm sorry for that little tangent there. Now it's time for the real post. Like, the legit thing.
Of course, it'll include some of my drawings.
Of course, it'll have some sort of (my attempt of) humor.
Of course, it'll have some sort of random label.
Here we go again.
A subject of art that I've been focusing on a lot lately is drawing...well, animals. All sorts of animals. Mostly mammals and reptiles, of course, but also fictional creatures. I do have a few favorite things to draw, though. You've probably guessed by now that they're:

  • Puffins
  • Dragons
  • My Dog
  • ....more dragons
  • Dinosaurs
  • .........even more dragons.....
  • Okay, maybe I'm totally obsessed with drawing dragons.
Today, though, I'm gonna try to draw something new, something completely different! I think. Hopefully.

Actually, I give up. Here's a hoss. (That's a horse, by the way.)


So...happy birthday. Take some cake or something.

The beginning of my work of art...my first digitally illustrated story....

A VERY ANGSTY SCIENCE FAIR
Written and illustrated by me, of course. :3










This is my first digitally illustrated book. So far, I'm feelin' pretty good about it.

Of course, I'm not even CLOSE to being finished yet. For a book of this quality, it would take AGES to finish. I really enjoy art, and I hope you enjoy this too....
I just wanted to shout out a quick thank you to everyone who reads this blog. It's a big commitment for me to keep posting, and I really, really appreciate those of you who take time out of your busy schedule to read it. I would also like to thank you procrastinators out there, for keeping my pageviews up.
Finally, I'd like to thank Mr. Parker, for teaching me the art of blogging. Without all of you people, I don't know what I'd do.
Although I might actually know.
I'd probably blog anyway, just to kill some time.

Update: Here. I actually ended it in this pic. I'm making a new book now. All about celebrities.

Why my Username has to do with Puffins

 Now, the title of this post may seem strange. But then again, when has it ever been ordinary? I actually can't think of a single instance of this anomaly of a normal title.
Moving on.
My username has to do with puffins for several reasons. First of all, a year or maybe a little more ago, my friends all got into this anime called Hetalia (where all of the countries are personified. They're literally people). My friends started assigning us all to the characters of this manga we were most like, and I ended up being Iceland, due to his relatively quiet personality. 
Here's a picture of him for you to see!





Right, so I ended up being Iceland (I was Japan also, but that's a story for another post. My official name was 'Icelapan.') and Iceland had a puffin. As you may know if you've read or heard of my aforementioned other blog, I traveled around Europe for a while, and then went to Central America. I decided to keep a blog to show my adventures and such, and it ended up being a big hit, with over two thousand pageviews. 
So, before I left for Europe, one of my good friends Bailey bought me a stuffed animal puffin for my early birthday present. I was elated, since my character was Iceland. I tied a red bow around the puffin's neck for the bowtie. I decided to bring that puffin to Europe and take pictures with him around all of those famous landmarks. 
So...I did. I took lots of pictures, and if you want to see some pictures of puffins (in front of famous things) just go to my other blog. The link's up there somewhere, and I'm too lazy to post it again.
My username has to do with puffins for these reasons, and I hope this cleared things up for you, in case you were confused (as people usually are). 
Also, Mr. Puffin came to school with me today.
Yup, here's the famous Mr. Puffin. In the flesh.
I have no idea how he got into my jacket pocket. He just...appears sometimes.
I've stopped questioning it.
