California Roughs
ART
Its been a bit rough lately with arguing over who is correct about the arts. My brother is angry that I am not fast at art and that i like everything to be perfect and scale. The practice which I think hes trying to teach me is to make a good picture that is somewhat to scale, but more to capture the moment. This could be the totally wrong thing hes teaching me...but thats what i got after speaking to his roommate Brian and his making it friend Joe. We spent time to sit down and look at the previous artworks which was Joes idea to ask me to make a pile of things I thought were good and a pile of things I thought were bad now that I learned some new techniques. I believe Joe had done this to see if my vision first of all was the same as I got here... and to see which pictures that may possibly had suppose to had been in the crap pile that I still thought were good... the reasons backing up those pictures would tell them the answer of where I was going wrong with the art. I personally thought this was an ingenious idea... instead of my brothers tactic of yelling louder and taking away my most valued music from me T_T...
SURVIVAL
As far as the survival goes I just got a package from my mama and it contained some Yakisoba Sauce and Yakisoba as well as Instant Yakisoba. Sometimes I wish I had taken some cooking classes when i was at home, because it seems i like cooking almost as much as art. Its now up there on my top lists of fun things to do... Composing, Drawing, and Cooking are now my new top 3. However I still havent had the chance to go and wash my clothes : / it seems that its so cold here i almost fear taking a bath rather then an option at home...
While being here for only a month I still have enough can goods to last me at least a little while... but I learned if I keep anything of my own in the fridge... it vanishes very quickly. So, i have been trying to figure out a way i can cook foods that will feed me for multiple of days.
The next problem is to experiment and figure out if the recipes are going to work, expecially with me cooking them : /. I have little time and no printer to figure out what i need to buy at the local super market, and little time to actually experiment... leading to many days of fast food...
<3>The sad part when i think about it is that friend wise I hardly if at any left anyone at home who actually cared about me... I can really maybe say less then three, and its hard because My fear of phones and all... But, I do miss having to do nothing because my mom and having my grandma who doesnt stop talking :/ I did think there was this one girl in california was pretty cute named Miya however that is out of the question for persuite because to my luck she was in an up and coming rock band named "paper thin walls". So, i just hashed the idea of going for some famous girl, but she was really sweet kind and polite, and nerdy to boot ^^U all the things i look for. Well, hopefully i can get out of this house and make some friends... its surely depressing to not see anyone during the weekend, or have anything in common with anyone. Its almost as if its just me having a relationship with the walls and windows of the house.

3 weeks
its been awhile here at camp snake bite... i learned that things get lonely here because theres no one to hang out with except Brian, and since Brian likes to do nothing unless its his way, just as my brother... both of them my bro and brian are pretty boring...
Meeting some of the people at the party was okay, but the next day its back to the computer and everyone elses lives move on with little to no communication. Couples in and out make it had to talk to the guys and well, anyone else around the house too.
My brother has been angry today cause he wanted pictures done, but i was taking out the garbage washing dishes, doing as he said at the time to watch a movie, or feed myself, or what other tasks he may have me doing. I wanna tell him fuck no, ill get it done when i get it the fuck done. I have been practicing drawing objects around the house, but since he says its crap, it doesnt matter. Personally i feel im not getting much better because im trying to learn how to survive alone, but at the same time i think that is much more important then drawing. Sure, drawing might be one way to make cash, but i dont see much of a future about learning this particular skill.
I am still trying my hardest to grow up faster, get a girlfriend, and learn how to draw better, but it just seems that its not working no matter how hard i try. I am trying to figure out how alot of basic things work out, and even if my bro doesnt like it, i cant help it that i dont know. He can go fuck himself if he wants me to do it any faster, because like it or not im only going to draw him one picture. Since i am still trying to learn better techniques to draw which he is not telling me.

Difference in Days
Oh my god im so sorry i neglected my blog so long. Things have been pretty much the same everyday where I wake up, draw, check my email, and then head to bed.
The only thing that was different was that Brian went with me to a couple of places to drink Coffee, as he showed me these places we met alot of pot heads.
Yesterday was a waste of time because Denise, John, and I went to Little Tokyo to see the Murakami exibit, however what we ended up doing is going to go get a whole bunch of soda and visiting tons of Bike shops.... My brother is so assuming and nitty gritty sometimes... its really annoying, he says im a lyer cause i tell him i dont like to eat things and he sees me eat them. Would he ever wonder if i had all the rice i needed and had an option to eat anything else? he probably has no clue that the reason i eat those things are cause if I dont eat the snacks my mom brought who the hell will? no one else seems to like eating Macadamia nuts.
I told him i
dont eat ice cream often, which is true. But i always like coffee ice cream, but most places dont have one i like, or it just isnt close by.
dont eat alot of bread... at home i prefer rice thank you, so im still trying to get used to the bread and potato thing down here.
dont eat snacks... Which is true, except two items... Maui Onion potato chips, and Chocolate pretzels. Which i do my best not to buy.
dont eat veggies and fruits, but im tryyyying to.
He thinks im a lyer cause, idk, hes a dick face.
Today just started, so I dont really know what the whole agenda is... my brother and I are suppose to head over to the Murakami Exibit. Who is Murakami? hes suppose to be a famous anime artist who hates Otaku, which is strange considering Otaku are Anime Fans... The statement hes trying to make is that if u indulge yourself too much in any one thing you never see the rest of the world.

Melow Sunday
The dictator finally ran outa things for me to do on his to do list. I first woke up at around the afternoon 12 ish. One of my brothers friend's friend woke up at 7 o clock and woke up the other boys. There was several people sleeping in the Living room. Aaron, Chris, Chris 2, and myself.
Chris 2 left in the morning.
Around 9 o clock everyone started to wake up and they talked about cars. I was so bored and finally asked. "whats so great about these big toys anyways." the room went silent.
I then went into my brothers room, where he and Denise were watching a weird anime about music. It seemed strange to me because it was ochestral, and i didnt really like ochestral, but my brother thought it was interesting. He continued to work on his bike which he had taken apart the night before.
Denise was going out to buy some food for john and herself, so i decided to tag along to buy some groceries and familiarize myself with Ralphs and Trader Joes. I asked Denise what the difference between onions were... there are three i think... and then there were products all around the store that had organiz labels. I was so confused, i felt like i had walked into a jungle of mysterious objects I could not understand. She slowly told me about the different types of onions and labels. I ended up leaving the store with some chicken, haole sushi, and eggs.
When i got back, i wanted to play Tekken with Chris, but Tony had a major problem with games. Aaron and Tony said games are only for pussy boys, so Chris and I never got a chance to play.
Later on Brian started to critique my drawings along with John and started to see how i was progressing. Tony later asked me if this is what i really wanted to do for the rest of my life, and i thought to myself.... maybe, maybe not. No percise answer, but there was one thing i knew i wanted... and it was to make my own games and Internet Cafe back in hawaii, or even an Event.
Brian later on invited me to dinner after asking John the great dictator for permission. We headed down to Pasidena to a mexican fast food place called "Chipotles" the bill was about 7$ each and Brian told me he would cover it. Brian was telling me about his life situation and that h feels he ran out of creative juice, life options, and a guide to where he might go next.
Hopefully this upcomming week things will be as today was, because i really enjoyed this sunday. Until next time ^^

Cold Day
I woke up late as usual... the day looked pretty blue, until my brother sent me outside to go draw. It seemed okay, but the first couple of drawings i drew, my brother just hated them... he said No! and then NO no no! and then NO! all wrong
So, i started to feel like wtf dude!? so after about half the day went by he FINALLY showed me what kind of drawings he wanted. Took him long enough... around the end of the day room mate brian came back to smoke some goods while i was drawing. I started to feel like i was a frozen Popsicle at that point. My brother told me to stop faking it... but it was SOOO cold!!! my drink started to get that cold on the outside look...
I was really irritated by the black widows... at that point i wish i just went back inside to draw something that wouldnt risk getting bitten... After awhile i think my bro got a important call, so he told me to go inside and draw. I drew two pictures of the rock, and he still isnt home. Two packages arrived for him, but i still dont know whats next since he is still not home. Until next episode of Camp Snake Bite.
