ok so i was typing this on my iPod on the way to meet Ann yesterday, this morning on the way to work, and during lunch and I realized how nauseating it is to type a full blog entry on a moving vehicle o.0
.
Also, I’ve been blogging a whole lot! I think I’ve been reading too much Hyperbole and a Half lately. Really. I came across the website ages ago after seeing a link to it on The Oatmeal but never got around to checking it out properly until lately when more and more of my favorite websites started linking to it. (That reminds me, I need to get to posting a LOLShare soon -__-”) Anyhoo, that amazing blog has been inspiring me to blog more and I guess my style has kinda been affected by it. Though I’m nowhere near as talented or funny as AllieBrosh, of course.
.
However, I’ve ever experimented with using my own illustrations in place of using Google images before *points down to QueenofTMI post*. Evidently, I am not too good at drawing. Sadly though, we all know what makes a blog interesting and easy/fun to read is the amount of pictures/illustrations on it (total fact, seriously you guys) and since I didn’t want to chance the wrath of various owners of images, I decided to draw some of my own or at least use my own personal pictures as and when I could. You would hopefully have noticed that trend lately (apart from the Tshirts post and that’s ok since i was kinda selling their shirts for them plus i linked you right to their store)..
.
So anyhoo, here’s a post, complete with my own illustrations (if you can call them that. Personally, I call them my flaming pieces of shit).. I was thinking what could I describe my “style” of drawing, since every artist has one: The Oatmeal’s is cartoonish (that is so a legit description), Allie’s (notice how I called her by her first name like she’s my friend?) is exaggerated childish doodle-like drawings.. Cyanide and Happiness’s is neat, expressive stick figures, xkcd’s is basic stick-ish figures etc..
.
After awhile, and much scrutiny of my drawings, I have come to a conclusion regarding the “type” of drawing my doodles fall under. “BUTTFUGLY” . It’s ok. It’s true. haha.
.
ANYHOOZES. The point of this blog. I was whining and basically being a bitch about my slightly injured finger all over the place lately (because it horrified the crap outta me that my finger has not yet magically healed after 2 weeks. It’s a record, for me. I’m usually like Wolverine.) So, to prove to people that I wasn’t making a mountain outta a molehill, I decided to illustrate how screwed up my finger is right now. Of course, crap drawings done on my iPod is the way to convince y’all of the state of my sprained finger.
.
So I started scribbling on the train to town after work. As most (some? one??) of you might know, I’m OCD + Paranoid about public transport. I feel as if everyone is out to get me/eavesdrop on me etc. So I had to draw with my ipod tilted towards my chest so that no one could see. I think i might have even sprained my finger further. Throughout the whole ride, I was drawing hands and fingers on the train, wondering what people might think of me if they saw what I was drawing. This despite the fact that they probably already thought I was a looney for drawing stuff practically ON my chest, occasionally laughing to myself, then shaking my head and erasing the whole canvas by running my finger all over the screen. Think about that image.
.
So anyway, here’s the result of that bout of drawing. Remember. The intention is to get you to understand how fucked up my finger is.
my hands, and in case you couldn't tell, I wrote 'L' below the left hand and 'R' sorta under the right
uhm, my right hand, when viewed palm side up. i felt the need to overcompensate and wrote "R". and "normal" in case you didn't think it was
left hand viewed palm side up. i forgot that not many people understand that "!" means "not" so I thought adding more dots below it would help. and a red circle
Now, note the gap that I’ve kindly pointed out in above picture. Ignore the fact that it looks like my hand is the hand-world equivalent of gay since it can’t decide whether it wants to be a left or right hand (seriously I tried so hard to make the rightmost finger a pinkie but it kept turning out to be a thumb so I decided to be hippie and let this hand be whatever it wanted. Left or right, it will always be my hand)..
.
Anyway, yea. My left ring finger is the one that’s sprained. Normally it would stick real close to the middle finger, as the right one does (see picture above above picture), but now there’s this gap like they got a divorce or something.
.
I was worried that the sprain had rendered my ring and middle fingers irreconcilable so I took a really close look at the finger. Turns out, this is what happened..
right "normal" ring finger
left ring finger. notice the bump/bone detour ????
So, turns out there’s a huge bump/bone detour thing going on there that’s separating my left ring and middle fingers. Kinda like a tumorous third party. (BTW I did the two drawings of my ring fingers by tracing them onto my iPod! How’s that for win? I had to hover the ring fingers so they didn’t touch the screen. That is some skillz, y’all)
.
So yea that’s what’s going on with my finger. I feel that there’s kinda less pain now, but I still feel discomfort when trying to cup things with my left hand. By things I mean conditioner, shampoo etc!!!! No idea what you were thinking but I thought i’d best banish those thoughts.
.
Sigh. Deformed hand-dom, here I come. Bye bye pretty hands =(
.
So what did you think of my drawings? Here’s one with stick figures so you can see how awesome my drawing is.
Can you tell what's going on??? Let me know what you think is going on!
Yup, so let me know what you think! Btw, I have come to the conclusion that I am miserably unfunny, due to the shitloads of people who didn’t “get” the previous post. (By shitloads I mean 2. And of course, one person has found it funny so far. So yea. Still an overall fail) Oh well.
.
Till the next time, TOODLES!~
