i decided to throw some art in here, i dunno, maybe some of you were interested to actually SEE what i make in my free time. most of these arent finished. there really isnt that much stuff. all of it was made in photoshop/illustrator cs2. big thanks to my hetero life partner for getting me this software. couldnt have done it without you b.vowles. <3333

this is a t-shirt design for the band i am in.

this is another t-shirt design involving andys head.

this is one thats supposed to be eddie murphy. but it dosent really look like him.

i made these next two for mary back when she moved into her new apartment. i thought she might get a kick out of them. oh well.

i am bored and want very badly to get bubble tea. ill probably do that now. see ya.

"all life hands people like us is shit. just, big piles of shit. and like.....we cant stop it. all we can do is sculpt this shit. we can make it into something that looks nice. cover it up. make it look like its not shit, that its something better, something beautiful, something happy. but no matter how we sculpt this shit, underneath everything its still shit. life is hard on us shawn. why? i dont know. we havent a clue what we're going to do, we just take this shit, this giant wall of shit, and make try to make it something its not, something its never going to be. there are people who live shit-free lives. life dosent hand them massive piles of it. those ones, are the ones who we envy. because we dont deserve any of it. no one has time for any of it...........did i seriously drink all of that jack's?"

im too nice about everything.

too passive.

"nice guys finish last" is the thing that has been on my mind lately. which seems like its becoming more and more true every day.

i honestly feel like im on the verge of some sort of breakdown. its pretty scary because ive never been like this before.

am i lying to myself though? am i really "too" nice? or just not nice enough?

i dont understand why i feel like the exception, after everything. maybe its because i feel like im being treated like one. it makes me angry and bitter. which is something i dont want to be. if you want nothing to do with me, please say something now. i deserve to be treated as an equal, not as an exception. it should be that way with any friendships. dont play favorites, cause that only ends up hurting people.

i dont want to demolish what is left of my surviving friendships, but i feel at times like no one gives a damn. i miss so many people constantly that its taking a toll on me. i know everyone has their issues that they deal with. i wonder if anyone feels the same way i do?

i want to take initiative, but its so goddamn hard these days. its probably me. if it is, then please just tell me so i know for sure.

growing up is hard to do. thats for fucking sure.

bryan put it best, "we're just damaged goods is all buddy. damaged goods"

if you have anything you want to tell me. feel free to comment, anonymously or whatever. i dont care.
