My Favorite Sounds

My answers to Quont's question:

Vickielysia's favorite sound would be the crackling of a fire and the howl of the wind to fan the flames.

My favorite sounds would be a baby laughing, glass wind chimes and rain on the roof.

Weekly Progress Report - August 13, 2007

Well, here it is, another week come and gone and have I done all that I wanted to? Of course not.

In regards to missing connections, the following stories were reviewed and connections added where necessary:


The Crone's House
Ancient Seelos


Yep, that's it. Two whole stories. Yay me!

So what have I done this week? Well...

I had a lovely time visiting with my sister, Anemo. She chose me to be her Featured Artist -- I am so honored!

Ah, but that did not take up the entire week, no. Thanks to Quont and the questions posted on His blog, I have been devoting more time to my photography. My latest challenge is selective coloring -- something which I have long admired but never been brave enough to try until now. Here is the result.


The method of doing it is pretty easy, but the actual doing it, pixel by pixel around the edges, is very time consuming and not easy on the eyeballs. Still, I think the end result was worth it.

Now, though, I'm beginning to worry that perhaps I don't belong at Mernac. My goals and dreams have little to do with being an artist or a writer...well maybe when they organize the first Mernacian convention I can take publicity photos.

My Dream Job

In response to Quont's Question of the Week:

Well this is an easy one! My dream job would be to work for National Geographic and travel the world photographing all of the wonders, the cultures and sights to share them with the rest of the world!

Any job where I was photographing things would be a dream job for me. Yes, I do mean anything. I once had a job offer to photograph railroad accidents for investigations, and I thought that would be the coolest job in the world (I'm not squeamish in the least so the sight of blood, guts and body parts doesn't make me lose my lunch so long as none of the parts were originally mine).

Wow, that was short and sweet, wasn't it?

A short post on a rather scary thought

When I need a laugh, I go to the bug report forum at Mernac because that's where all the funny posts are.

Bottled Djinn, Gorilla Sucubbi and a new snack product are just a small sample of what awaits in this thread (not to mention a certain Disciple's grandchildren wanting to visit the darkside for cookies). What, you ask, do these things have to do with reporting problems with the website? Nothing, but at least it's guaranteed to bring a smile to your face by the time you're done reading through the thread.

What art form are you?

Kind of scary how close to the truth these quizzes can be!





What Art Form are You?


Photography

You are probably one to see things from new perspectives. Often times you can be called the peace maker, because you see all sides of arguments or issues. You're well-versed and controversial. People are drawn to your creativity, and most often times wonder what you're thinking. They can't tell what you're thinking, which makes them want to get to know you better! You're a sweet and caring person, who is family and friend oriented.Personality Traits: Kind, Caring, Humble, Loving, Lovable, Optimistic, Romantic, Sensitive, Rational, Confident.
